The present disclosure will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

(39) Characteristics, principles and other aspects of the present disclosure will be described below in detail.

(40) The present disclosure provides an optical imaging system. According to the exemplary implementations of the present disclosure, the optical imaging system may be sequentially provided with a first lens, a second lens, a third lens and a fourth lens from an object side to an imaging side along an optical axis. The optical imaging system may have an effective focal length f.

(41) In the exemplary implementations, the first lens may have a positive refractive power, an object side surface of the first lens may be a convex surface, and an image side surface of the first lens may be a concave surface. The first lens having the positive refractive power has a large refractive power, and the image side surface of the first lens is set to be a concave surface, which is conducive to shortening the total length of the optical imaging system and reducing the volume of the optical imaging system, thereby realizing miniaturization of the lens assembly.

(42) The second lens has a refractive power, an object side surface of the second lens may be a convex surface, and an image side surface of the second lens may be a concave surface. The second lens having the refractive power may reduce an angle of the off-axial field of view between a ray of light and the optical axis, thereby improving the astigmation of the off-axial field of view to provide an image quality of the optical imaging system.

(43) The third lens and the fourth lens have negative refractive powers.

(44) In the exemplary implementations, the optical imaging system according to the present disclosure further includes an aperture diaphragm arranged between an object being photographed and the second lens. The optical imaging system according to the present disclosure further includes a filter arranged between the fourth lens and an image plane. The filter is an infrared (IR) filter, and a bandpass wavelength of the infrared (IR) filter, for example, ranges from 750 nm to 900 nm. In a certain wave band, only a small section in the middle of the bandpass filter is a pass band having a high transmittance, and both sides of the pass band are stop bands having a high reflectance. Appropriate passage of an infrared waveband may help the system not to introduce the influence of a chromatic aberration and control the diameter of a dispersive spot, and meanwhile, the infrared waveband helps to eliminate the interference of the environment visible light, thereby improving the image quality of the lens assembly. With this configuration, effective recognition of the optical imaging system in an effective spectral range is ensured.

(45) In the exemplary implementations, a distance from the object side surface of the first lens to the image plane on the optical axis TTL and the effective focal length of the optical imaging system f may satisfy: TTL/f<1, and more specifically, may satisfy: TTL/f0.941. In the situation that the effective recognition accuracy of the optical imaging system is ensured, the size of the optical imaging system is miniaturized, and meanwhile, the optical imaging system keeps a long focal length and has a wider focal depth.

(46) In the exemplary implementations, the distance from the object side surface of the first lens to the image plane on the optical axis TTL and a center thickness of the fourth lens on the optical axis CT4 may satisfy: CT4/TTL<0.1, and more specifically, may satisfy: CT4/TTL0.093. By reasonably distributing the shapes and positions of the lenses, peripheral relative illuminations may be effectively improved.

(47) In the exemplary implementations, an effective radius of the object side surface of the first lens DT11 and an effective radius of the object side surface of the second lens DT21 may satisfy: 1.2<DT11/DT21<1.8, and more specifically, may satisfy: 1.269DT11/DT211.714. When the lens assembly is assembled, such configuration is more conducive to the structure positioning stability, and reducing a bending deformation caused by the difference of positioning apertures of the first lens and the second lens, and may improve resolution of the lens assembly at the same time.

(48) In the exemplary implementations, a radius of curvature of the image side surface of the first lens R2 and a radius of curvature of the object side surface of the second lens R3 may satisfy: 1.3<R2/R3<1.9, and more specifically, may satisfy: 1.393R2/R31.870. By reasonably configuring the radii of curvature and shapes of the lenses, the relative illuminations can be improved, which is conducive to correcting an aberration, specially reducing a comatic aberration, so that the optical imaging system can have a high image quality.

(49) In the exemplary implementations, the radius of curvature of the image side surface of the first lens R2 and a radius of curvature of the image side surface of the second lens R4 may satisfy: 1<R2/R4<2.1, and more specifically, may satisfy: 1.28R2/R42.059. By reasonably configuring the radii of curvature and shapes of the lenses, the relative illuminations can be improved, which is conducive to correcting an aberration, specially reducing the aberration, thereby improving the resolution of the optical imaging system.

(50) In the exemplary implementations, a center thickness of the first lens on the optical axis CT1 and a center thickness of the third lens on the optical axis CT3 may satisfy: 2.5<CT1/CT3<3.1, and more specifically, may satisfy: 2.538CT1/CT33.06. By reasonably configuring the center thickness of the first lens and the center thickness of the second lens, the spherochromatic aberration of the optical imaging system can be effectively controlled.

(51) In the exemplary implementations, the center thickness of the first lens on the optical axis CT1 and the center thickness of the fourth lens on the optical axis CT4 may satisfy: 0.4<CT4/CT1<0.8, and more specifically, may satisfy: 0.498CT4/CT10.634. By matching the shape of the first lens with the shape of the fourth lens, the peripheral relative illuminations can be effectively improved.

(52) In the exemplary implementations, an effective focal length of the first lens f1, an effective focal length of the fourth lens f4, and the effective focal length of the optical imaging system f may satisfy: 0.8<(f1+f4)/f<0, and more specifically, may satisfy: 0.772(f1+f4)/f0.356. By reasonably distributing the refractive powers of the first lens and the fourth lens, the spherical aberration and the comatic aberration of the system can be effectively controlled, thereby improving the resolution and the image quality of the optical imaging system.

(53) In the exemplary implementations, an effective focal length of the third lens f3 and the effective focal length of the fourth lens f4 may satisfy: 1<f3/f4<3, and more specifically, satisfy: 1.259f3/f42.710. By reasonably distributing the refractive powers of the third lens and the fourth lens, the magnification of the optical imaging system in an application range is ensured, to guarantee an effective recognition accuracy; and the aberration may be reduced, to improve the resolution of the optical imaging system.

(54) In the exemplary implementations, an axial distance from an intersection point of an image side surface of the third lens and the optical axis to a vertex of an effective radius of the image side surface of the third lens SAG32 and the center thickness of the third lens on the optical axis CT3 may satisfy: 0.7<SAG32/CT3<0.3, and more specifically, may satisfy: 0.601SAG32/CT30.413. The third lens in such configuration has a large refractive power for the off-axial field of view, which is conducive to shortening the total length of the lens assembly. Meanwhile, this configuration may also reduce the aberration and improve the resolution of the optical imaging system.

(55) In the exemplary implementations, the effective focal length of the third lens f3, the effective focal length of the fourth lens f4, and the effective focal length of the optical imaging system f may satisfy: 4.5<(f3+f4)/f<3, and more specifically, may satisfy: 4.254(f3+f4)/f3.386. By reasonably distributing the refractive powers of the third lens and the fourth lens and the effective focal length of the imaging system f, the magnification of the optical imaging system in an application range is ensured, to guarantee an effective recognition accuracy.

(56) In the exemplary implementations, an effective radius of an image side surface of the fourth lens DT42 and ImgH, ImgH being half a diagonal length of an effective pixel area of an electronic photosensitive element, may satisfy: 0.5<DT42/ImgH<0.9, and more specifically, may satisfy: 0.742DT42/ImgH0.784. By reasonably configuring the half of the diagonal length of the effective pixel area on the image plane of the optical imaging system ImgH and the effective radius of the image side surface of the fourth lens DT42, an incident angle of a principal ray of light can be effectively controlled, and the peripheral relative illumination can be effectively improved.

(57) The optical imaging system according to the implementations of the present disclosure may use multiple lenses (e.g., four lenses used in the present disclosure). However, it should be appreciated that the imaging system having four lenses is merely an example, rather than a limitation. By reasonably configuring the refractive powers, center thicknesses and surface types of the various lenses, the axial spacing distances between the various lenses, and so on, a compact-type optical imaging system having high brightness and high resolution may be provided. In the implementations of the present disclosure, at least one of the mirror surfaces of the lenses is an aspheric mirror surface. An aspheric lens is characterized in that its curvature continuously changes from the center of the lens to the periphery. In contrast to a spherical lens having a constant curvature from the center of the lens to the periphery, the aspheric lens has a better radius-of-curvature characteristic, and has the advantages of improving a distorted aberration and an astigmatic aberration, which can make the visual field larger and more realistic. The use of the aspheric lens can eliminate as much as possible the aberration that occurs during imaging, thereby improving the image quality.

(58) However, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that, in a situation without departing from the technical solution claimed by the present disclosure, the number of lenses forming the lens assembly may be changed, to obtain the various results and advantages described below. For instance, in the description of the Embodiment 1, an optical imaging system having four lenses is described as an example, but the optical imaging system is not limited to include four lenses. If necessary, the optical imaging system may also include other numbers of lenses.

(59) Specific embodiments applicable to the optical imaging system of the above implementations will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
