Abstract

An optical lens includes, in order along a direction, an aperture stop and a lens group with a positive refractive power. The aperture stop is disposed at an outermost side of all lenses of the optical lens, and the lens group has at least four lenses. At least one of the four lenses is an aspheric lens, and each of the four lenses has a clear aperture of smaller than 14 mm.

Claims (34)

1. An optical lens, comprising in order along a direction:

an aperture stop disposed at an outermost side of all lenses of the optical lens; and

a lens group with a positive refractive power comprising at least four lenses, at least one of the four lenses being an aspheric lens, and each of the four lenses having a clear aperture of smaller than 14 mm.

2. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the farthest aspheric lens from the aperture stop in the lens group has a positive refractive power.

3. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a first prism, disposed at a first side of the lens group; and

a second prism, the second prism is a prism assembly and disposed at a second side of the lens group.

4. The optical lens as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the number of all lenses with refractive power in the optical lens is at most six, the lens group comprises a cemented doublet and the overall refractive power of the optical lens is positive, the first side of the optical lens possesses afocal characteristic, and the second side of the optical lens possesses telecentric characteristic.

5. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the four lenses comprises, arranged in order away from the aperture stop, a first lens with a positive refractive power, a second lens with a positive refractive power, a third lens with a negative refractive power and a fourth lens with a positive refractive power.

6. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lens group comprises six lenses, and the six lenses comprise, arranged in order away from the aperture stop, a first lens with a positive refractive power, a second lens with a positive refractive power, a third lens with a positive refractive power, a fourth lens with a positive refractive power, a fifth lens with a negative refractive power and a sixth lens with a positive refractive power.

7. The optical lens as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the at least one aspheric lens is the sixth lens.

8. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a ratio of TTL/Ds ranges from 2 to 12, where TTL is a distance along an optical axis between the aperture stop and a lens surface in the lens group farthest from the aperture stop, and Ds is a diameter of the aperture stop.

9. An optical lens, comprising:

an aperture stop; and

a lens group comprising at least four lenses, at least one of the four lenses being an aspheric lens, and each of the four lenses having a circular light-transmitting area with a diameter of smaller than 14 mm;

wherein the optical lens has a positive refractive power.

10. The optical lens as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the farthest aspheric lens from the aperture stop in the lens group has a positive refractive power.

11. The optical lens as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising:

a first prism, disposed at a first side of the lens group and disposed between the aperture stop and the lens group;

a second prism, the second prism is a prism assembly, the second prism is disposed at a second side of the lens group.

12. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the number of all lenses of the optical lens is at most six, the lens group comprises a cemented doublet, the first side of the optical lens possesses afocal characteristic, and the second side of the optical lens possesses telecentric characteristic.

13. The optical lens as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the four lenses comprises, arranged in order away from the aperture stop, a first lens with a positive refractive power, a second lens with a positive refractive power, a third lens with a negative refractive power and a fourth lens with a positive refractive power.

14. The optical lens as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the lens group comprises six lenses, and the six lenses comprise, arranged in order away from the aperture stop, a first lens with a positive refractive power, a second lens with a positive refractive power, a third lens with a positive refractive power, a fourth lens with a positive refractive power, a fifth lens with a negative refractive power and a sixth lens with a positive refractive power.

15. The optical lens as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the at least one aspheric lens is the sixth lens.

16. The optical lens as claimed in claim 9 , wherein a ratio of TTL/Ds ranges from 2 to 12, where TTL is a distance along an optical axis between the aperture stop and a lens surface in the lens group farthest from the aperture stop, and Ds is a diameter of the aperture stop.

17. An optical lens, comprising in order along a direction:

an aperture stop;

an aspheric lens;

a first prism; and

a lens group comprising at least four spherical lenses.

18. The optical lens as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the lens group comprises a cemented doublet, a side of the optical lens possesses afocal characteristic, and another side of the optical lens possesses telecentric characteristic.

19. The optical lens as claimed in claim 17 , further comprising:

a second prism, wherein the second prism is a prism assembly, and the lens group is disposed between the first prism and the second prism.

20. The optical lens as claimed in claim 17 , wherein a ratio of TTL/Ds ranges from 2 to 12, where TTL is a distance along an optical axis between an aperture stop and a lens surface in the lens group farthest from the aperture stop, and Ds is a diameter of the aperture stop.
