DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(13) Embodiments of an endoscope objective optical system will be described below in detail by referring to the accompanying diagrams. However, the present invention is not restricted to the embodiments and the examples described below.

(14) FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a lens arrangement of an endoscope objective optical system according to an embodiment.

(15) The present embodiment is an endoscope objective optical system that is to be combined with a solid image pickup element, which includes in order from an object side, a planoconcave negative lens L1 having a flat surface directed toward the object side, a flare aperture FS, an absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F1, an aperture stop S, and a planoconvex positive lens L2 having a flat surface directed toward the object side, wherein the following conditional expression (1) is satisfied:
0.5tg1/tl0.8(1)

(16) where,

(17) tg1 denotes a length along an optical axis AX from an object-side surface of the planoconcave negative lens L1 up to an image-side surface of the planoconvex positive lens L2, and

(18) tl denotes an overall length of the endoscope objective optical system, or in other words, a length along the optical axis AX from the object-side surface of the planoconcave negative lens L1 up to an image-side surface of the planoconcave negative lens L1.

(19) Parameter tg1 corresponds to a length of a portion including almost all lenses having a power. Conditional expression (1) regulates a proportion of parameter tg1 occupying the overall length.

(20) By satisfying conditional expression (1), a back focus of the endoscope objective optical system becomes short, and shortening of the overall length is facilitated. Moreover, a thickness of each optical element becomes large, and processing, holding, and assembling of components become easy.

(21) Moreover, the large thickness of the optical element also contributes to an improvement in durability of the optical element with respect to a thermal stress exerted from a holding frame at the time of autoclave sterilization.

(22) Moreover, the large thickness of the absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F1 enables cutting laser light of a predetermined wavelength region by adequate absorption. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent halation of an endoscope image due to laser light for targeting, for example.

(23) Furthermore, as mentioned above, when an endoscope is to be used for a treatment by laser light, such as the urinary-calculus treatment, laser light for crushing such as NdYAG is irradiated to a calculus. When such laser light is incident on an image pickup element, halation of an endoscope image occurs.

(24) Therefore, it is desirable to apply a coating of a reflecting film that reflects NdYAG laser light, on at least one surface of the absorption-type filter F1.

(25) In a case of exceeding an upper limit value of conditional expression (1), it is not possible to secure a back-focus length required for focus adjustment.

(26) It is preferable that the following conditional expression (1) be satisfied instead of conditional expression (1).
0.5tg1/tl0.65(1)

(27) In the endoscope objective optical system of the present embodiment, it is desirable that the absorption-type filter is an infra-red absorption filter.

(28) For instance, sometimes, laser light of an infra-red region which is visible light, is to be used as the laser light for target. Accordingly, by cutting the laser light of the infra-red region, it is possible to reduce the halation of the endoscope image.

(29) Moreover, in the endoscope objective optical system of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the following conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4) are satisfied:
0.32tn/n1.4(2),
0.32tIRCF/IRCF1.4(3), and
0.32tp/p1.4(4)

(30) where,

(31) tn denotes a total thickness of the planoconcave negative lens L1,

(32) n denotes an outer diameter of the planoconcave negative lens L1,

(33) tIRCF denotes a thickness of the absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F,

(34) IRCF denotes an outer diameter of the absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F,

(35) tp denotes a total thickness of the planoconvex positive lens L2, and

(36) p denotes an outer diameter of the planoconvex positive lens L2.

(37) The total thickness refers to a thickness of an outer peripheral portion of the optical element. The thickness refers to a thickness on an optical axis of the optical element.

(38) Conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4) regulate a relationship of the outer diameter and the thickness of the planoconcave negative lens L1, the absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F1, and the planoconvex positive lens L2 respectively.

(39) In a case of falling below lower limit values of conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4), processing and ease of assembly of the optical system is deteriorated, and resistance with respect to the autoclave sterilization is also degraded.

(40) Moreover, in the case of falling below the lower limit values of conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4), the planoconcave negative lens L1, the absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F1, and the planoconvex positive lens L2 have tilting and decentering, and an astigmatism and a coma occur.

(41) In a case of exceeding upper limit values of conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4), it results in the overall length of the optical system becoming long.

(42) Moreover, in a reduced-size optical system, there is a clearance of about 4% of an outer diameter of an element between an optical element and a frame due to a manufacturing error. For an optical performance, it is desirable to suppress the tilting of the optical element in the lens frame due to the clearance, to be not more than 10.

(43) FIG. 12 is a diagram showing tilt of an optical element L in the form of a plane parallel plate having an outer diameter . For suppressing an angle of tilt of the optical element L to be not more than 10, a value of (a total thickness of the optical element L)/(the outer diameter of the optical element L) is required to be higher than 0.32.

(44) By setting the value of (a thickness of the optical element L)/(the outer diameter of the optical element L), or in other words, the lower limit values of conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4), to be higher than 0.32, an adjustment of an angle of the optical element L becomes unnecessary, and ease of assembly is improved. Furthermore, when the thickness is made large with respect to the outer diameter of the optical element L, the durability with respect to stress from an outer peripheral portion exerted at the time of autoclave sterilization is also improved.

(45) It is more preferable that the following conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4) be satisfied instead of conditional expressions (2), (3), and (4):
0.33tn/n1.34(2),
0.33tIRCF/IRCF1.34(3), and
0.33tp/p1.34(4)

(46) Moreover, in the endoscope objective optical system of the present embodiment, it is desirable that the following conditional expressions (2-1), (3-1), (4-1), and (4-2) are satisfied:
0.9<|fn/ft|<2.1(2-1),
0.15tIRCF/tl(3-1),
1.2<|fp/ft|<1.7(4-1), and
0.85<|tp/rp|<1.3(4-2)

(47) where,

(48) fn denotes a focal length of the planoconcave negative lens,

(49) ft denotes a focal length of the overall endoscope objective optical system,

(50) tIRCF denotes the thickness of the absorption-type filter,

(51) tl denotes the overall length of the endoscope objective optical system,

(52) fp denotes a focal length of the planoconvex positive lens,

(53) tp denotes a thickness of the planoconvex positive lens, and

(54) rp denotes a radius of curvature of a convex surface of the planoconvex positive lens.

(55) Conditional expression (2-1) regulates a power distribution of the biconcave negative lens L1 and the overall endoscope objective optical system.

(56) In a case of exceeding an upper limit value of conditional expression (2-1), a height of a light ray incident on a first surface on the object side of the biconcave negative lens L1 becomes high, and flare is generated.

(57) In a case of falling below a lower limit value of conditional expression (2-1), a curvature of a concave surface of the planoconcave negative lens L1 becomes strong, and workability of the lens is deteriorated.

(58) Conditional expression (3-1) regulates a relationship of the thickness of the absorption-type filter (plane parallel plate) F1 and the overall length. In the endoscope objective optical system having the abovementioned arrangement, by satisfying conditional expression (3-1), it is possible to secure an adequate thickness of the absorption-type filter. Consequently, it is possible to cut light of a wavelength region causing halation, and to prevent the halation.

(59) Conditional expression (4-1) regulates a power distribution of the planoconvex positive lens L2 and the overall endoscope objective optical system.

(60) In a case of falling below a lower limit value of conditional expression (4-1), it is not possible to secure the back-focus length required for the focus adjustment.

(61) In a case of exceeding an upper limit value of conditional expression (4-1), the power of the planoconvex positive lens L2 is inadequate, and the overall length of the optical system becomes long.

(62) Conditional expression (4-2) regulates a relationship of the thickness and the radius of curvature of the planoconvex positive lens L2. In a case of falling below a lower limit value of conditional expression (4-2) or in a case of exceeding an upper limit value of conditional expression (4-2), the centering workability of the lens is deteriorated.
