Imaging lens and imaging device including the imaging lens

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to an imaging lens and an imaging device including the imaging lens. In particular, the present invention relates to an imaging lens and an imaging device including the imaging lens, in which the imaging lens has a three-lens structure that is capable of size and weight reduction. The imaging lens is used in an image-taking device that uses an image sensor element, such as a charge-coupled device (CCD) and a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), mounted on a portable computer, a television phone, a portable phone, and the like.

2. Description of the Related Art

In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for cameras that utilize an image sensor element, such as the CCD, the CMOS, or the like, that is mounted on a portable computer, a television phone, a portable phone, a digital camera, and the like. It is demanded that a camera such as this is small and light because the camera is required to be mounted on a limited installation space.

Therefore, it is also necessary for the imaging lens used in such cameras to be similarly small and light. Conventionally, a single-lens structure lens system using a single lens and a two-lens structure lens system having two lenses have been used as such an imaging lens.

However, although such lens systems with a small number of lenses are extremely effective in reducing the size and weight of the lens system, the lens systems cannot sufficiently handle high image quality and high resolution required of the imaging lenses in recent years.

Therefore, conventionally, a three-lens structure lens system using three lenses is used to handle high image quality and high resolution. The three lenses are a first lens, a second lens set on an object surface side of the first lens, and a third lens set on the object surface side of the second lens.

As examples of such a three-lens structure lens system attempting to increase resolution, for example, the lens systems described in the following Patent Literatures 1 to 3 are known.

[Patent Literature 1] Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication 2001-75006
[Patent Literature 2] Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication 2003-149545
[Patent Literature 3] Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication Heisei 10-301021

However, in the lens system described in Patent Literature 1, a diaphragm is disposed closest to the object side. Therefore, correction of distortion and chromatic aberration caused by magnification is difficult. A first lens is a meniscus lens whose convex surface faces an image surface side. Therefore, the lens system is not suitable for size and weight reduction. A second lens is shaped having a concave surface on the image surface side. Therefore, total reflection easily occurs and correction of off-axis aberration is difficult.

In the lens system described in Patent Literature 2, a first lens has negative power. Therefore, size and weight reduction is difficult.

Furthermore, in the lens system described in Patent Literature 3, a diaphragm is disposed between a second lens and a third lens. The third lens has a strong concave surface facing an object side and negative power. Therefore, telecentricity is poor. Moreover, an effective diameter of the third lens is large because space between the second lens and the third lens is wide. Therefore, the lens system is not suitable for size and weight reduction.

Therefore, the conventional lens systems were insufficient for securing telecentricity and achieving excellent resolution through sufficient correction of various aberrations, while achieving size and weight reduction.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention has been achieved in light of the above-described problems. An object of the invention is to provide an imaging lens and an imaging device including the imaging lens, in which the imaging lens can secure telecentricity and achieve excellent resolution through sufficient correction of various aberrations, while being compact and light.

In order to achieve the aforementioned object, an imaging lens according to a first aspect of the present invention is an imaging lens used for forming an image of an object on an image-taking surface of an image sensor element comprising, in order from an object side to an image surface side: a first lens that is a meniscus lens having a positive power whose convex surface faces the object side, a diaphragm, a second lens that is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the image surface side, and a third lens that is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the object side, wherein conditions expressed by the following expressions (1) and (2) are to be satisfied:

−130≦f₂/fl≦−6 (1)

0.8≦f₁/fl≦1 (2)

where,

fl: focal distance of the entire lens system

f₁: focal distance of the first lens

f₂: focal distance of the second lens.

In the first aspect of the invention, the first lens is a meniscus lens having a positive power whose convex surface faces the object side. The second lens is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the image surface side. The third lens is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the object side. The diaphragm is disposed between the first lens and the second lens. In addition, the conditions expressed by the expressions (1) and (2) are satisfied. Therefore, the size of the optical system can be reduced, telecentricity can be secured, and various aberrations, such as coma aberration, chromatic aberration, and field curvature can be successfully corrected.

An imaging lens according to a second aspect is the imaging lens according to the first aspect, wherein, further, a condition expressed by a following expression (3) is to be satisfied:

10≦(r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆)≦25 (3)

where,

r₅: center radius curvature of the object side face of the third lens

r₆: center radius curvature of the image surface side face of the third lens.

In the second aspect of the present invention, further, the expression (3) is satisfied. Therefore, telecentricity can be further enhanced and field curvature can be more successfully corrected.

An imaging lens according to a third aspect is the imaging lens according to the first aspect, wherein, further, a condition expressed by a following expression (4) is to be satisfied:

0.5≦r₅/fl≦1.1 (4).

In the third aspect of the invention, further, the expression (4) is satisfied. Therefore, coma aberration and distortion can be more successfully corrected.

An imaging lens according to a fourth aspect is the imaging lens according to the first aspect, wherein, further, a condition expressed by a following expression (5) is to be satisfied:

0<r₁/r₂≦0.5 (5)

where,

r₁: center radius curvature of the object side face of the first lens

r₂: center radius curvature of the image surface side face of the first lens.

In the fourth aspect of the present invention, further, the expression (5) is satisfied. Therefore, spherical aberration can be successfully corrected while reducing the size of the optical system.

An imaging device according to a fifth aspect includes the imaging lens according to any one of aspects 1 to 4 and an image sensor element.

In the fifth aspect of the present invention, further, a compact and light imaging device having high image quality can be achieved by an imaging lens that can reduce the size and weight of the optical system, secure telecentricity, and successfully correct various aberrations, such as coma aberration, chromatic aberration, and field curvature, being included.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

An embodiment of the imaging lens and the imaging device including the imaging lens according to the present invention will be described hereinafter with reference to FIG. 1.

As shown in FIG. 1, an imaging lens 1 according to the embodiment comprises, in order from the object side toward the image surface side, a first lens 2 that is a meniscus lens having a positive power whose convex surface faces the object side, a diaphragm 3, a second lens 4 that is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the image surface side, and a third lens 5 that is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the object side. Each lens 2, lens 4, and lens 5 are formed at a low cost using an injection-molding method using resin material.

Hereafter, respective lens surfaces 2a, 4a, and 5a on the object side of the first lens 2, the second lens 4, and the third lens 5 are referred to as first face 2a, first face 4a, and first face 5a of each lens 2, lens 4, and lens 5. Respective lens surfaces 2b, 4b, and 5b on the image surface side of the first lens 2, the second lens 4, and the third lens 5 are referred to as second face 2b, second face 4b, and second face 5b of each lens 2, lens 4, and lens 5.

On the image surface side the third lens 5, there are respectively disposed various filters 6, such as a cover glass, an infrared (IR) cut filter, and a lowpass filter, and an image-taking surface 7 that is a light-receiving surface of an image sensor element (solid image sensor element), such as a CCD or a CMOS. The imaging device is composed of the image sensor element, the lens 2, the lens 4, the lens 5, and the diaphragm 3. The various filters 6 may be omitted as required.

In this way, according to the embodiment, the first lens 2 is a meniscus lens having a positive power whose convex surface faces the object side. Therefore, the optical system can be made compact. In addition, the imaging lens 1 and the imaging device can be made compact and light.

According to the embodiment, the diaphragm 3 is disposed between the first lens 2 and the second lens 4. The diaphragm 3 can be disposed in a position away from the image surface. Therefore, telecentricity can be secured and, compared to when the diaphragm 3 is disposed on the object side of the first lens 2, distortion can be successfully corrected.

According to the embodiment, the second lens 4 is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the image surface side. Therefore, coma aberration, field curvature and the like can be successfully corrected. When the first face 4a and the second face 4b of the second lens 4 are aspheric surfaces, the effect of aberration correction can be enhanced.

According to the embodiment, the third lens 5 is a meniscus lens having a negative power whose convex surface faces the object side. Therefore, telecentricity can be secured. When the second face 5b of the third lens 5 is an aspheric surface, aberrations at each image height can be effectively corrected. In other words, each light beam incident on the optical system from each object point on an object plane is separated by image height after passing through the diaphragm 3. When the third lens 5 is a lens of which the convex surface faces the object side, each light beam incident on the first face 5a of the third lens 5 after passing through the diaphragm 3 can be more effectively separated by the first face 5a. The aberrations (particularly the astigmatism) of each light beam separated by image height can be effectively corrected by each light beam, by the second face 5b of the third lens 5 that is an aspheric surface.

In addition to such a configuration, according to the embodiment, conditions expressed by the following expressions (1) and (2) are satisfied:

−130≦f₂/fl≦−6 (1)

0.8≦f₁/fl≦1 (2)

where, fl in the expression (1) is the focal distance of the entire lens system (the same applies hereafter). f₂in the expression (1) is the focal distance of the second lens 4 (the same applies hereafter). f₁in the expression (2) is the focal distance of the first lens 2 (the same applies hereafter).

When the value of f₂/fl is greater than the value (−6) in the expression (1), the negative power of the second lens 4 becomes too strong. Coma aberration worsens and Petzval sum becomes excessively corrected. At the same time, when the value of f₂/fl is less than the value (−130) in the expression (1), the negative power of the second lens 4 becomes too weak. Telecentricity deteriorates and chromatic aberration is insufficiently corrected.

Therefore, according to the embodiment, by the value of f₂/fl being set to satisfy the expression (1), telecentricity can be further enhanced. Various aberrations, such as coma aberration, chromatic aberration, and field curvature, can be more successfully corrected.

The relationship between f₂and fl is more preferably −80≦f₂/fl≦−6.

When the value of f₁/fl is greater than the value (1) in the expression (2), the power of the first lens 2 becomes too weak. Size reduction of the optical system becomes difficult. At the same time, when the value of f₁/fl is less than the value (0.8) in the expression (2), the power of the first lens 2 becomes too strong. Aberration correction becomes difficult.

Therefore, according to the embodiment, by the value of f₁/fl being set to satisfy the expression (2), telecentricity can be further enhanced. Both size reduction (in other words, the size and weight reduction of the imaging lens 1 and the imaging device) and enhanced performance of the optical system can be achieved.

The relationship between f₁and fl is more preferably 0.8≦f₁/fl≦0.93.

In addition to the above-described configuration, according to the embodiment, a condition expressed by a following expression (3) is satisfied:

10≦(r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆)≦25 (3)

where, r₅in the expression (3) is the center radius curvature of the first face 5a of the third lens 5 (the same applies hereafter). r₆in the expression (3) is the center radius curvature of the second face 5b of the third lens 5 (the same applies hereafter).

When the value of (r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆) is greater than the value (25) in the expression (3), although telecentricity is advantageously affected, the correction of field curvature becomes difficult. At the same time, when the value of (r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆) is less than the value (10) in the expression (3), telecentricity deteriorates and the correction of field curvature becomes difficult.

Therefore, according to the embodiment, by the value of (r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆) being set to satisfy the expression (3), telecentricity can be further enhanced and field curvature can be more successfully corrected.

The value of (r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆) is more preferably 12≦(r₅+r₆)/(r₅−r₆)≦20.

In addition to the above-described configuration, according to the embodiment, a condition expressed by a following expression (4) is satisfied:

0.5≦r₅/fl≦1.1 (4)

When the value of r₅/fl is greater than the value (1.1) in the expression (4), the correction of coma aberration becomes difficult. At the same time, when the value of r₅/fl is less than the value (0.5) in the expression (4), distortion deteriorates.

Therefore, according to the embodiment, by the value of r₅/fl being set to satisfy the expression (4), coma aberration and distortion can be more successfully corrected.

The relationship between r₅and fl is more preferably 0.6≦r₅/fl≦0.9.

In addition to the above-described configuration, according to the embodiment, a condition expressed by a following expression (5) is satisfied:

0<r₁/r₂≦0.5 (5)

where, r₁in the expression (5) is the center radius curvature of the first face 2a of the first lens 2 (the same applies hereafter) r₂in the expression (5) is the center radius curvature of the second face 2b of the first lens (the same applies hereafter).

When the value of r₁/r₂is greater than the value (0.5) in the expression (5), the spherical aberration of the second face 2b of the first lens 2 increases and the size reduction of the optical system becomes difficult. At the same time, when the value of r₁/r₂is the value (0) in the expression (5) or less, the spherical aberration of the first face 2a of the first lens 2 increases.

Therefore, according to the embodiment, by the value of r₁/r₂being set to satisfy the expression (5), spherical aberration can be successfully corrected while reducing the size of the optical system.

The relationship between r₁and r₂is more preferably 0.1≦r₁/r₂≦0.41.

In the EXAMPLES, F no denotes F number, ω denotes half of the angle-of-view (angle of view of opposing angles), and r denotes the radius curvature of an optical surface (center radius curvature of a lens surface). Further, d denotes a distance to the next optical surface, nd denotes the index of refraction of each optical system when the d line (yellow) is irradiated, and vd denotes the Abbe number of each optical system also when the d line is irradiated.
