Description of the Related Art

In optical apparatuses such as endoscopes and digital cameras, it is desired that a wide range can be captured. For this, in an objective optical system of these optical apparatuses, it is desired that an angle of view is wide.

Endoscopes include an endoscope having a scope unit (hereinafter, referred to as ‘scope type endoscope’) and a capsule endoscope. In an objective optical system of a scope type endoscope and an objective optical system of a capsule endoscope (hereinafter, referred to as ‘objective optical system of endoscope’), widening of the angle of view is desired. The angle of view desired in the objective optical system of endoscope is generally 130 degrees or more.

Moreover, in the scope type endoscope and the capsule endoscope, reducing stress on a patient as much as possible, and improving an operability of an operator have been desired. For this, in the scope type endoscope, shortening a length of a rigid tip portion is desired and in the capsule endoscope, shortening an overall length is desired. Therefore, in the objective optical system of endoscope, a length in an optical axial direction is sought to be shortened. For such reasons, with regard to the objective optical system of endoscope, it is significant to make an overall length of the optical system as short as possible.

Whereas, in the objective optical system of the abovementioned optical apparatus, a cost reduction is desired. Reducing the number of lenses in the objective optical system is an example of a means of reducing the cost. Various technologies for reducing the number of lenses have been proposed heretofore.

However, when there is an excessive reduction of the number of lenses, sometimes, an aberration correction becomes inadequate. Therefore, when an attempt is made to carry out sufficient aberration correction with less number of lenses, it becomes difficult to realize widening of the angle of view.

For such reasons, particularly, in the objective optical system of endoscope, achieving both of the adequate aberration correction and widening of angle of view, has become a technological issue. Moreover, with regard to the objective optical system of endoscope, it is significant not only to reduce simply the number of lenses but also to make the overall length of the optical system as short as possible as mentioned above.

For reducing the cost, it is preferable not only to reduce the number of lenses but also to use an inexpensive material for lenses. Glass and resins have been known as a material of lenses. Out of these materials, resins are comparatively inexpensive. For such reason, it is preferable to use a resin as a material of lens.

However, for resins, the lower the price, smaller is a refractive index in many cases. The smaller the refractive index of a lens, more difficult it is to widen the angle of view and to make the size small. For such reasons, even when a resin having a comparatively small refractive index is used, it is necessary to devise an idea to enable widening of the angle of view and small-sizing.

An imaging lens which includes less number of lenses has been disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open Publication No. 2009-136386. The imaging lens disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open Publication No. 2009-136386 includes in order from an object side, a first lens unit having a negative refractive power, an aperture stop, and a second lens unit having a positive refractive power.

The first lens unit includes a first lens and a second lens. The first lens is a meniscus lens having a convex surface directed toward the object side. The second lens is a meniscus lens having a convex surface directed toward an image side. In the first lens, a curvature of a surface on the image side is larger than a curvature of a surface on the object side. In the second lens, a curvature of a surface on the image side is larger than a curvature of a surface on the object side.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Prior to the explanation of examples, action and effect of embodiments according to certain aspects of the present invention will be described below. In the explanation of the action and effect of the embodiments concretely, the explanation will be made by citing concrete examples. However, similar to a case of the examples to be described later, aspects exemplified thereof are only some of the aspects included in the present invention, and there exists a large number of variations in these aspects. Consequently, the present invention is not restricted to the aspects that will be exemplified.

An image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment includes an optical system which includes a plurality of lenses, and an image sensor which is disposed at an image position of the optical system, wherein the optical system has a lens surface positioned nearest to object and a lens surface positioned nearest to image, and includes in order from the object side, a first lens having a negative refractive power, a second lens having a positive refractive power, a third lens having a positive refractive power, and a fourth lens, and an object-side surface of the second lens has a shape which is convex toward the object side, and the following conditional expressions (1) and (2) are satisfied:

α max−α min<4.0×10⁻⁵/° C. (1), and

1.8<Σd/FL<6.5 (2),

where,

α max denotes a largest coefficient of linear expansion among coefficients of linear expansion at 20 degrees of the plurality of lenses,

α min denotes a smallest coefficient of linear expansion among coefficients of linear expansion at 20 degrees of the plurality of lenses,

Σd denotes a distance from the lens surface positioned nearest to object up to the lens surface positioned nearest to image, and

FL denotes a focal length of the overall optical system.

In the optical system of the image pickup apparatus according to the present embodiment, a lens having a negative refractive power is used for the first lens. Accordingly, it is possible to secure a wide angle of view.

In a case in which the first lens is configured by a lens having a negative refractive power, a curvature of field and a chromatic aberration occur in the first lens. Therefore, by disposing a lens having a positive refractive power on the image side of the first lens, the curvature of field and the chromatic aberration are corrected favorably.

Specifically, the second lens having a positive refractive power and the third lens having a positive refractive power are disposed on the image side of the first lens. Accordingly, it is possible to correct the curvature of field and the chromatic aberration favorably.

Moreover, by making the refractive power of the second lens large, it is possible to make the optical system small-sized. Therefore, the object-side surface of the second lens is let to have a shape which is convex toward the object side. Accordingly, it is possible to make the refractive power of the second lens large easily. As a result, it is possible to shorten the overall length of the optical system easily.

Moreover, in the image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment, the abovementioned conditional expressions (1) and (2) are satisfied.

Conditional expression (1) is an expression in which a difference in the coefficient of linear expansion of the two lenses is taken. The coefficient of linear expansion is a coefficient of linear expansion at 20 degrees. The optical system of the present embodiment includes the plurality of lenses. In each of the plurality of lenses, a shape and a refractive index of lens varies with a change in temperature. Therefore, a focal length changes in each lens with the change in temperature.

Therefore, by satisfying conditional expression (1), it is possible to keep the focal length substantially constant as the overall optical system even when the focal length changes in each lens with the change in temperature. As a result, it is possible to suppress a fluctuation in aberration, and particularly a fluctuation in a spherical aberration and a fluctuation in a curvature of field. Moreover, it is possible to make a fluctuation in a focal position small.

Conditional expression (2) is a conditional expression related to a ratio of the total length of the optical system and the focal length of the overall optical system. By satisfying conditional expression (2), it is possible to achieve small-sizing and widening of the angle of view of the optical system.

By exceeding a lower limit value of conditional expression (2), it is possible to make the focal length of the overall optical system small. As a result, it is possible to widen the angle of view of the optical system. By falling below an upper limit value of conditional expression (2), it is possible to suppress an increase in the total length of the optical system. As a result, it is possible to make the optical system small-sized.

By falling below an upper limit value of conditional expression (3), it is possible to correct a longitudinal chromatic aberration favorably. Moreover, since it is possible to position a principal point of the overall optical system on the object side, it is possible to make the optical system small-sized.

It is more preferable that the following conditional expression (3′) be satisfied instead of conditional expression (3).

As a result, it is possible to correct both of an axial aberration and an off-axis aberration favorably. By falling below an upper limit value of conditional expression (13), it is possible to suppress a distance from the first lens up to the aperture stop, to be short. As a result, it is possible to shorten the total length of the optical system.

Conditional expression (14) is a conditional expression related to a ratio of the refractive index of the first lens and the refractive index of the second lens. The conditional expression (14) is a conditional expression for small-sizing the optical system as well as for correcting the curvature of field favorably.

By satisfying conditional expression (14), since it is possible to make the refractive index of the positive lens high, it is possible to shorten the total length of the optical system. Moreover, since it is possible to make the refractive index of the negative lens low, correction of Petzval sum can be carried out favorably. As a result, it is possible to shorten the total length of the optical system as well as to correct the curvature of field favorably.

In the image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the half angle of view be not less than 65 degrees.

By making such arrangement, it is possible to capture a wide range.

where,

D2 denotes a thickness of the second lens, and

As a result, it is possible to make the optical system small-sized.

It is more preferable that the following conditional expression (15′) be satisfied instead of conditional expression (15).

0.28<D2/FL<1.9 (15′)

It is even more preferable that the following conditional expression (15″) be satisfied instead of conditional expression (15).

0.3<D2/FL<1.8 (15″)

It is preferable that the image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment include an optical member through which light passes, on the object side of the optical system, and both surfaces of the optical member be curved surfaces.

It is possible to form two spaces by the optical member. For instance, a closed space is formed by the optical member and another member, and the optical system is disposed in the closed space. By making such arrangement, it is possible to carry out imaging of other space stably, independent of an environment of the other space. Imaging by a capsule endoscope is an example of such imaging.

In a capsule endoscope, imaging of various parts in body is carried out. For imaging, a subject has to swallow the capsule endoscope. Therefore, in the capsule endoscope, it is necessary to make the image pickup apparatus water-tight, as well as to minimize a resistance at the time of swallowing and a friction with each organ in the body. For this, it is possible to meet these requirements by making both surfaces of the optical member curved surfaces. In such manner, by making the abovementioned arrangement, it is possible to use the image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment as an image pickup apparatus of a capsule endoscope. Moreover, even for applications other than imaging inside the body, it is possible to protect the optical system by the optical member.

In the image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the following conditional expression (16) be satisfied:

By satisfying conditional expression (16), it is possible to maintain an imaging performance of the optical system to be favorable even when an accuracy of assembling during manufacturing of the optical system is reduced.

An optical apparatus of the present embodiment includes the abovementioned image pickup apparatus and a signal processing circuit.

According to the optical apparatus of the present embodiment, it is possible to achieve an image having a high resolution and a wide angle of view, while being small-sized.

The image pickup apparatus and the optical apparatus described above may satisfy a plurality of arrangements simultaneously. Making such arrangement is preferable for achieving a favorable image pickup apparatus and optical apparatus. Moreover, combinations of preferable arrangements are arbitrary. Furthermore, regarding each conditional expression, only an upper limit value or a lower limit value of a further restricted numerical range of the conditional expression may be restricted.

However, the present invention is not restricted to the examples described below. An optical system of the image pickup apparatus will be described below.

A wide-angle optical system according to an example 28, as shown in FIG. 28, includes in order from an object side, an optical member CG, a negative meniscus lens L1 having a convex surface directed toward the object side, a biconvex positive lens L2, a biconvex positive lens L3, and a positive meniscus lens L4 having a convex surface directed toward the object side. The optical system including the negative meniscus lens L1, the biconvex positive lens L2, an aperture stop S, the biconvex positive lens L3, and the positive meniscus lens L4 is same as the optical system according to the example 1.

FIG. 28 is a schematic diagram illustrating that the optical member CG can be disposed. Therefore, a size and a position of the optical member CG have not been depicted accurately with respect to sizes and positions of the lenses.

The optical member CG is a member in the form of a plate, and both an object-side surface and an image-side surface thereof are curved surfaces. In FIG. 28, since both the object-side surface and the image-side surface are curved surfaces, an overall shape of the optical member CG is hemispherical. In the example 28, a thickness of the optical member CG, or in other words, a distance between the object-side surface and the image-side surface, is constant. However, the thickness of the optical member CG may not be constant.

Moreover, as it will be described later, the optical member CG is disposed at a position only 6.31 mm away on the object side from the object-side surface of the first lens. However, the optical member CG may be disposed at a position shifted frontward or rearward from the abovementioned position. Moreover, a radius of curvature and the thickness of the optical member CG mentioned here is an example, and are not limited to the radius of curvature and the thickness mentioned here.

A material that allows light to transmit through has been used for the optical member CG. Consequently, light from an object passes through the optical member CG and is incident on the negative meniscus lens L1. The optical member CG is disposed such that a curvature center of the image-side surface substantially coincides with a position of an entrance pupil. Consequently, a new aberration due to the optical member CG hardly occurs. In other words, an imaging performance of the optical system according to the example 28 is not different from an imaging performance of the optical system according to the example 1.

The optical member CG functions as a cover glass. In this case, the optical member CG corresponds to an observation window provided at an outer covering of a capsule endoscope. Therefore, the optical system according to the example 28 can be used for an optical system of a capsule endoscope. The optical systems according to the example 2 to the example 27 can also be used for an optical system of an endoscope.

Numerical data of each example described above is shown below. In Surface data, r denotes radius of curvature of each lens surface, d denotes a distance between respective lens surfaces, nd denotes a refractive index of each lens for a d-line, νd denotes an Abbe number for each lens and * denotes an aspheric surface, stop denotes an aperture stop.

In surface data of each example, a flat surface is positioned immediately next to a surface indicating a stop. This flat surface indicates an image-side surface of the stop. For example, in the example 1, a fifth surface (r5) is an object-side surface of a stop, and a sixth surface (r6) is an image-side surface of the stop. Therefore, a distance (d5) between the fifth surface and the sixth surface becomes a thickness of the stop. Similar is the case even for the other examples.

Further, in Various data, f denotes a focal length of the entire system, FNO. denotes an F number, ω denotes a half angle of view, IH denotes an image height, LTL denotes a lens total length of the optical system, BF denotes aback focus. Further, back focus is a unit which is expressed upon air conversion of a distance from a rearmost lens surface to a paraxial image surface. The lens total length is a distance from a frontmost lens surface to the rearmost lens surface plus back focus. A unit of the half angle of view is degree.

Moreover, the example 28 is an example in which, the optical member CG is disposed on the object side of the image forming optical system according to the example 1. In surface data of the example 28, C1 denotes the object-side surface of the optical member CG and C2 denotes the image-side surface of the optical member CG. Since aspheric surface data and various data of the example 28 are same as aspheric surface data and various data of the example 1, description thereof is omitted here.

A shape of an aspheric surface is defined by the following expression where the direction of the optical axis is represented by z, the direction orthogonal to the optical axis is represented by y, a conical coefficient is represented by K, aspheric surface coefficients are represented by A4, A6, A8, A10, A12 . . .

Z=(y²/r)/[1+{1−(1+k)(y/r)²}^1/2]+A4y⁴+A6y⁶+A8y⁸+A10y¹⁰+A12y¹²+ . . .

Further, in the aspheric surface coefficients, ‘e-n’ (where, n is an integral number) indicates ‘10⁻ⁿ’. Moreover, these symbols are commonly used in the following numerical data for each example.

FIG. 29 illustrates an example of an image pickup apparatus. In this example, the image pickup apparatus is a capsule endoscope. A capsule endoscope 100 includes a capsule cover 101 and a transparent cover 102. An outer covering of the capsule endoscope 100 is formed by the capsule cover 101 and the transparent cover 102.

The capsule cover 101 includes a central portion having a substantially circular cylindrical shape, and a bottom portion having a substantially bowl shape. The transparent cover 102 is disposed at a position facing the bottom portion, across the central portion. The transparent cover 102 is formed by a transparent member having a substantially bowl shape. The capsule cover 101 and the transparent cover 102 are connected consecutively to be mutually watertight.

An interior of the capsule endoscope 100 includes an image forming optical system 103, an illumination unit 104, an image sensor 105, a drive control unit 106, and a signal processing unit 107. Although it is not shown in the diagram, the interior of the capsule endoscope 100 is provided with an electric-power receiving unit and a transmitting unit.

Illumination light is irradiated from the illumination unit 104. The illumination light passes through the transparent cover 102 and is irradiated to an object. Light from the object is incident on the image forming optical system 103. An optical image of the object is formed at an image position by the image forming optical system 103.

The optical image is picked up by the image sensor 105. A drive and control of the image sensor 105 is carried out by the drive control unit 106. Moreover, an output signal from the image sensor 105 is processed by the signal processing unit 107 according to the requirement.

Here, for the image forming optical system 103, the optical system according to the abovementioned example 1 for instance, is used. In such manner, the image forming optical system 103 has a wide angle of view and high imaging performance, while being small-sized. Consequently, in the image forming optical system 103, a wide-angle optical image having a high resolution is acquired.

Moreover, the capsule endoscope 100 includes an optical system having a wide angle of view and high imaging performance, while being small-sized. Consequently, in the capsule endoscope 100, it is possible to acquire a wide-angle image with high resolution, while being small-sized.

FIG. 30A and FIG. 30B are diagrams illustrating another example of an image pickup apparatus. In this example, the image pickup apparatus is a car-mounted camera. FIG. 30A is a diagram illustrating an example of a car-mounted camera mounted at an outside of a car, and FIG. 30B is a diagram illustrating an example of a car-mounted camera mounted inside a car.

As shown in FIG. 30A, a car-mounted camera 201 is provided to a front grill of an automobile 200. The car-mounted camera 201 includes an image forming optical system and an image sensor.

For the image forming optical system of the car-mounted camera 201, the optical system according to the abovementioned example 1 is used. Consequently, an optical image of an extremely wide range (the angle of view of about 160°) is formed.

As shown in FIG. 30B, the car-mounted camera 201 is provided near a ceiling of the automobile 200. An action and an effect of the car-mounted camera 201 are as have already been described. In the car-mounted camera 201, while being small-sized, it is possible to acquire a wide-angle image with high resolution.

According to the image pickup apparatus of the present embodiment, it is possible to provide an image pickup apparatus equipped with an optical system which, while being small-sized, has a wide angle and of view, and in which various aberrations are corrected favorably. Moreover, it is possible to provide an optical apparatus which, while being small-sized, is capable of achieving a high-resolution wide-angle optical image.

As described above, the image pickup apparatus according to the present invention is suitable for an image pickup apparatus which, while being small-sized, has a wide angle of view, and in which various aberrations are corrected favorably. Moreover, the optical apparatus according to the present invention is suitable for an optical apparatus which, while being small-sized, is capable of achieving a high-resolution wide-angle optical image.
