DETAILED DESCRIPTION
According to one aspect of the present disclosure, an imaging lens module is provided. The imaging lens module has an image surface and includes an optical lens assembly, a plurality of monomer structures and a cover member. The optical lens assembly is disposed on an object side of the image surface and defines an optical axis. The optical lens assembly includes a light-blocking element, which includes a light-blocking portion. The light-blocking portion is disposed closer to the optical axis than a portion of the light-blocking element other than the light-blocking portion to the optical axis. The monomer structures are disposed on the object side of the image surface, and each of the monomer structures is extended along a direction parallel to the optical axis. The cover member is disposed on an object side of the optical lens assembly, and the optical axis passes through the cover member. The monomer structures are disposed on the light-blocking portion of the light-blocking element. When a length along the direction parallel to the optical axis of each of the monomer structures is D, and a spacing distance between adjacent two of the monomer structures is Dp, the following conditions are satisfied: 0.03 mm≤D<0.12 mm; and 0.02 mm≤Dp<0.095 mm.
Furthermore, the 1st example to 5th example of the 1st embodiment of the present disclosure may be examples of the aforementioned imaging lens module. The monomer structures are extended along the direction parallel to the optical axis, one or more thereof may be in the form of a convex columnar structure that protrudes with a height from a disposing surface of the light-blocking portion, or one or more thereof may be in the form of a concave columnar structure that is recessed with a depth from the disposing surface of the light-blocking portion toward another surface, but is not limited thereto. The cover member may be made of a transparent plastic material or a transparent glass material, but is not limited thereto. The light-blocking element may be a lens barrel, a retainer, a spacer, a light-blocking sheet, etc., but is not limited thereto.
Moreover, in a miniaturized imaging lens module, the distance between the cover member and the light-blocking element is short, so that it probably causes unnecessary optical reflection (e.g., the dotted light paths in FIG. 1D and FIG. 8D), and the reflected light is flare. Therefore, the present disclosure is favorable for reducing the reflection ratio of light on the specific area by arranging the monomer structures on the specific area of the light-blocking portion via injection molding or laser beam processing.
According to one aspect of the present disclosure, an imaging lens module is provided. The imaging lens module has an image surface and includes an optical lens assembly, a light-blocking element, a plurality of monomer structures and a cover member. The optical lens assembly is disposed on an object side of the image surface and defines an optical axis. The light-blocking element is disposed opposite to the optical lens assembly and includes a light-blocking portion, and the light-blocking portion is disposed closer to the optical axis than a portion of the light-blocking element other than the light-blocking portion to the optical axis. The monomer structures are disposed on the object side of the image surface, and each of the monomer structures is extended along a direction parallel to the optical axis. The cover member is disposed on an object side of the optical lens assembly, and the optical axis passes through the cover member. The monomer structures are disposed on the light-blocking portion of the light-blocking element. When a length along the direction parallel to the optical axis of each of the monomer structures is D, and a spacing distance between adjacent two of the monomer structures is Dp, the following conditions are satisfied: 0.03 mm≤D<0.12 mm; and 0.02 mm≤Dp<0.095 mm. Therefore, the monomer structures can destroy the reflection path of non-imaging light to prevent non-imaging light from entering the optical lens assembly, so as to obtain a clear image.
Furthermore, the 2nd embodiment of the present disclosure may be examples of the aforementioned imaging lens module. The imaging lens module may further include a variable aperture module, which is disposed on the object side of the optical lens assembly, and the optical axis passes through the center of the variable aperture module. The variable aperture module includes at least two of the light-blocking elements. The light-blocking elements are stacked on each other along a circumferential direction of the optical axis to form a variable light aperture, and the disclosure is not limited thereto.
In detail, when a number of the monomer structures is Nm, the following condition may be satisfied: 250<Nm<25000. Therefore, the design of the foregoing number range is favorable for obtaining a better light-blocking effect of the monomer structures.
The light-blocking portion may face the object side of the optical lens assembly. Therefore, the configuration helps the light-blocking portion to have better efficiency in intercepting the non-imaging light.
The light-blocking element may be extended along the direction parallel to the optical axis. The light-blocking element may further include an object-side surface, which is located at a most object-side portion of the light-blocking element. The object-side surface may face the object side of the optical lens assembly.
When a height difference along the direction parallel to the optical axis between the object-side surface and the disposing surface of the monomer structures is ΔH, and a length along the direction parallel to the optical axis of the light-blocking element is Lb, the following condition may be satisfied: 0≤ΔH/Lb<0.8. Therefore, it ensures the continuity of coverage of the monomer structures to maintain high light-blocking effect.
The monomer structures may face the object side of the optical lens assembly. Therefore, the configuration helps the monomer structures to have better light-blocking effect.
The cover member may correspond to and face the light-blocking portion of the light-blocking element. Therefore, the configuration helps the light-blocking portion to have better efficiency in intercepting the non-imaging light.
The light-blocking element may be made of at least two structural layers. Specifically, the light-blocking element may be a light-blocking sheet, but is not limited thereto. The at least two structural layers may include a base layer and a covering layer.
When a thickness of the base layer is Ts, and a thickness of the covering layer is Tc, the following condition may be satisfied: 0.03 mm≤D<Ts+Tc<0.5 mm. Therefore, the setting range is for a preferred thickness that is advantageous in the light-blocking effect of the monomer structures and the production efficiency of the light-blocking element.
Each of the aforementioned features of the imaging lens module according to the present disclosure can be utilized in various combinations for achieving the corresponding effects.
According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a camera module is provided, and the camera module includes the imaging lens module of the foregoing aspect.
According to another aspect of the present disclosure, an electronic device is provided, and the electronic device includes the camera module of the foregoing aspect.

FIG. 1A is a three-dimensional view of a camera module 10 according to the 1st embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 1B is an exploded view of the camera module 10 of the 1st embodiment in FIG. 1A. With reference to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, the camera module 10 includes an imaging lens module 100. Specifically, the camera module 10 may further include a metal yoke 12, a circuit element 13 and a carrier 17.
FIG. 1C is a top view of the camera module 10 of the 1st embodiment in FIG. 1A, FIG. 1D is a cross-sectional view along line 1D-1D in FIG. 1C, and FIG. 1E is a schematic view of a light-blocking element 150 in FIG. 1D. With reference to FIG. 1A to FIG. 1E, the imaging lens module 100 has an image surface 180, and an image sensor (not labeled) is disposed on the image surface 180. The imaging lens module 100 includes an optical lens assembly 140, a plurality of monomer structures 160 and a cover member 110. The optical lens assembly 140 is disposed on an object side of the image surface 180 and defines an optical axis z1. The optical lens assembly 140 includes a light-blocking element 150, which specifically a lens barrel and includes a light-blocking portion 151. The light-blocking portion 151 is disposed closer to the optical axis z1 than a portion 152 of the light-blocking element 150 other than the light-blocking portion 151 to the optical axis z1. The monomer structures 160 are disposed on the object side of the image surface 180, and each of the monomer structures 160 is extended along a direction parallel to the optical axis z1. Each of the monomer structures 160 appears as a convex columnar structure protruding with a height from a disposing surface 164 of the light-blocking portion 151, or each of the monomer structures 160 appears as a concave columnar structure recessed with a depth from the disposing surface 164 of the light-blocking portion 151 toward another surface, but is not limited thereto. The cover member 110 is disposed on an object side of the optical lens assembly 140, and the optical axis z1 passes through the cover member 110. The monomer structures 160 are disposed on the light-blocking portion 151 of the light-blocking element 150. Therefore, by disposing the monomer structures 160 on a specific area of the light-blocking portion 151 through injection molding or laser beam processing, flare caused by unwanted optical reflections can be reduced. For example, in FIG. 1D, the incident light m1 is prevented from being reflected from the light-blocking portion 151 to the cover member 110 and then being reflected from the cover member 110 into of the lens elements of the optical lens assembly 140, as the light path shown by the dotted line, thereby reducing the reflection ratio of light on the specific area. In FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B, FIG. 1D and FIG. 1E, the object side refers to the upper side of the reference element in the figure, and the image side refers to the lower side of the reference element in the figure.
In detail, with reference to FIG. 1D, the light-blocking portion 151 may face the object side of the optical lens assembly 140. The light-blocking element 150 may be extended along the direction parallel to the optical axis z1. The light-blocking element 150 may further include an object-side surface 154, which is located at a most object-side portion 153 of the light-blocking element 150. The object-side surface 154 may face the object side of the optical lens assembly 140. Furthermore, the monomer structures 160 may face the object side of the optical lens assembly 140. The cover member 110 may correspond to and face the light-blocking portion 151 of the light-blocking element 150.
