TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of optical technology, and more particularly, to a reflective eyepiece optical system and a head-mounted near-to-eye display device.


BACKGROUND

With the development of electronic devices to ultra-miniaturization, head-mounted display devices and products are constantly emerging in military, industrial, medical, educational, consumption and other fields, and in a typical wearable computing architecture, a head-mounted display device is a key component. The head-mounted display device directs the video image light emitted from a miniature image displayer (e.g., a transmissive or reflective liquid crystal displayer, an organic electroluminescent element, or a DMD device) to the pupil of a user by optical technology to implement virtual magnified images in the near-eye range of the user, so as to provide the user with intuitive and visual images, video, and text information. The eyepiece optical system is the core of the head-mounted display device, which realizes the function of displaying a miniature image in front of human eyes to form a virtual magnified image.


The head-mounted display device develops in the direction of compact size, light weight, convenient wearing, and load reduction. Meanwhile, a large field-of-view angle and visual comfort experience have gradually become key factors to evaluate the quality of the head-mounted display device. The large field-of-view angle determines a visual experience effect of high liveness, and high image quality and low distortion determine the comfort of visual experience. To meet these requirements, the eyepiece optical system should try its best to achieve such indexes as a large field-of-view angle, high image resolution, low distortion, small field curvature, and a small volume. It is a great challenge for system design and aberrations optimization to meet the above optical properties at the same time.

Patent Document 5 (Chinese Patent Publication No. CN207081891U) and Patent Document 6 (Chinese Patent Publication No. CN108604007A) provide an eyepiece optical system that adopts a reflex means, which ensures high-quality imaging; however, its optical structure is often limited to single lens reflection, thereby greatly limiting a performance ratio of the entire optical structure.


To sum up, the existing optical structures not only have problems such as heavy weight, small field-of-view angle, and insufficient optical performance, but also have problems such as difficulty in processing and mass production due to the difficulty of implementation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

In order to clarify the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, the following clear and complete description will be made for the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are just some rather than all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by one of ordinary skill in the art without any creative effort based on the embodiments disclosed in the present invention fall into the scope of the present invention.


The present invention constructs a reflective eyepiece optical system, including a first lens group, and a first optical element and a second lens group for transmitting and reflecting a light from a miniature image displayer. The second lens group includes an optical reflection surface, and the optical reflection surface is an optical surface farthest from a human eye viewing side in the second lens group. The optical reflection surface is concave to the human eye viewing direction. The first optical element reflects the light refracted by the first lens group to the second lens group, and then transmits the light refracted, reflected, and refracted by the second lens group to the human eye.


The above light transmission path is as follows: a light generated by the miniature image displayer is refracted by the first lens group and then transmitted to the first optical element, and a reflection part on the first optical element reflects the light into the second lens group. The optical reflection surface in the second lens group is arranged on an optical surface farthest from the human eye viewing side, and therefore, the light will be refracted once in the second lens group before entering the optical reflection surface. When the light reaches the optical reflection surface, it will be reflected by the optical reflection surface onto the first optical element. Before the light reflected by the optical reflection surface reaches the first optical element, it will be refracted onto the first optical element through another optical surface in the second lens group, and a light-transmitting part on the first optical element will transmit the light to the human eye.


An effective focal length of the eyepiece optical system is fw, an effective focal length of the first lens group is f1, an effective focal length of the second lens group is f2, and fw, f1, f2 satisfy the following relations (1) and (2):






f
1
/f
w<−0.47  (1);





−2.53<f2/fw<−0.64  (2);


wherein, a value of f1/fw may be −100.57, −56.55, −33.351, −21.131, −10.951, −7.935, −5.815, −3.615, −1.589, −0.47, etc., and a value of f2/fw may be −2.53, −2.521, −2.13, −1.99, −1.55, −1.21, −1.02, −0.98, −0.875, −0.753, −0.649, −0.64, and the like.


The first lens group includes a first sub-lens group, a second sub-lens group, a third sub-lens group, and a fourth sub-lens group arranged coaxially and successively along an optical axis from the human eye viewing side to the miniature image displayer side; an effective focal length of the first sub-lens group is f11, and f11 is a positive value; an effective focal length of the second sub-lens group is f12, and f12 is a negative value; an effective focal length of the third sub-lens group is f13, and f13 is a positive value, and f11, f12, f13, and f1 satisfy the following relations (3), (4), and (5):





0.19<f11/f1  (3);






f
12
/f
1<−0.019  (4);





0.019<f13/f1  (5);


wherein, a value of f11/f1 may be 0.19, 0.20, 0.39, 0.57, 0.77, 0.89, 1.35, 3.25, 5.56, 36.1, 54.1, 87.6, and the like, a value of f12/f1 may be −120.43, −100.47, −77.55, −51.25, −45.33, −21.78, −15.13, −10.55, −7.15, −4.14, −0.13, −0.02, −0.019, and the like, and a value of f13/f1 may be 0.019, 0.20, 0.39, 1.99, 5.83, 12.13, 22.54, 35.24, 43.55, 83.59, and the like.


In the above relations (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5), value ranges of f1/fw, f12/f1, and f13/f1 are closely related to sensitivities of a correction of system aberrations, a processing difficulty of optical elements, and assembly deviations of the optical elements. The value of f1/fw in the relation (1) is less than −0.47, which improves the processibility of the optical elements in the system. The value of f2/fw in the relation (2) is greater than −2.53, which improves the processibility of the optical elements in the system, while its value is less than −0.64, so that the system aberrations can be fully corrected, thereby achieving higher quality optical effects. The value of f11/f1 in the relation (3) is greater than 0.19, so that the system aberration can be fully corrected, thereby achieving high quality optical effects. The value of f13/f1 in the relation (5) is greater than 0.019, so that the system aberration can be fully corrected, thereby achieving high quality optical effects. The value of f12/f1 in the relation (4) is less than −0.019, which reduces the difficulty of spherical aberrations correction and facilitates the realization of a large optical aperture.


The first lens group includes four sub-lens groups, which are respectively the first sub-lens group, the second sub-lens group, the third sub-lens group, and the fourth sub-lens group arranged adjacently. The first sub-lens group, the second sub-lens group, and the third sub-lens group adopt a focal length combination of positive, negative, and positive, and the focal length of the fourth lens group may be a positive focal length or a negative focal length, wherein, the negative lens group corrects aberrations, and the positive lens group provides focused imaging. The respective sub-lens groups adopt a focal length combination of “positive, negative, positive, and positive” or “positive, negative, positive, and negative,” the combination of the sub-lens groups is relatively complex, which can further correct aberrations, and has better processibility, thereby fully correcting the aberrations of the system, and improving the optical resolution of the system.


More importantly, with the transmission and reflection properties of the first optical element and the second lens group, the second lens group has a reflection surface to effectively fold the optical path, which reduces the overall size of the eyepiece optical system, and improves the possibility of subsequent mass production. At the same time, the second lens group and the focal length combination relationship between the first sub-lens group, the second sub-lens group, the third sub-lens group, and the fourth sub-lens group are arranged to further correct the aberrations, which improves the processibility. On the basis of miniaturization, cost and weight reduction for the article, the aberrations of the optical system are greatly eliminated, and the basic optical indicators are also improved, ensuring high image quality and increasing the size of the picture angle. Therefore, an observer can watch large images of full frame, high definition and uniform image quality without any distortion and get visual experience of high liveness via the present invention, which is suitable for head-mounted near-to-eye display devices and similar devices thereof.


In the above embodiment, the first optical element may be a polarizer with 75% transmission and 25% reflection, or 65% transmission and 35% reflection, or a transflective function.

The optical surface closer to the human eye E side is marked as 1, and by analogy (2, 3, 4, 5, 6 . . . respectively from left to right). The light emitted from the miniature image displayer is refracted by the first lens group, and then reflected on the first optical element to the second lens group. After the light is refracted, reflected, and refracted by the second lens group, the light transmitted by the second lens group is transmitted to the human eye through the first optical element.


In a further embodiment, a distance along the optical axibetween the first optical element and the second lens group s is d1, a distance along the optical axis between the first optical element and the first lens group is d2, and d1 and d2 satisfy the following relation (6):

A lower limit of d2/d1 in the above relation (6) is greater than 0.69, which reduces the difficulty of correcting an off-axis aberration of the system, and ensures that both a center field-of-view and an edge field-of-view achieve high image quality, so that the image quality in the full frame is uniform.


In a further embodiment, a maximum effective optical aperture of the second lens group is φ2, and φ2 satisfies the following relation (7):





φ2<70 mm  (7);

In a further embodiment, an optical surface of the first lens proximate to the human eye viewing side is convex to the human eye direction. It may further reduce the size of the eyepiece optical system, improve the image quality of the system, correct the distortion, and improve the aberrations such as astigmatism and field curvature of the system, which is beneficial to the high-resolution optical effect of the eyepiece system with uniform image quality across the full frame.


In a further embodiment, the second sub-lens group includes a third lens adjacent to the first sub-lens group; the third lens is a negative lens; an optical surface of the third lens proximate to the miniature image displayer side is concave to the miniature image displayer; an effective focal length of the third lens is f121, and f121 satisfies the following relation (9):

In a further embodiment, the material of various lenses in the second lens group is an optical plastic material, such as E48R, EP5000, and OKP1.


Therefore, the aberrations at all levels of the eyepiece optical system are fully corrected, and the manufacturing cost of the optical element and the weight of the optical system are also controlled.


The principles, solutions, and display results of the above eyepiece optical system will be further described below through more specific embodiments.


In the following examples, a diaphragm E may be the exit pupil of imaging for the eyepiece optical system, which is a virtual light exit aperture. When the pupil of the human eye is at the diaphragm position, the best imaging effect can be observed. The spot diagram provided in the following embodiment reflects a geometric structure of the imaging of the optical system, ignores the diffraction effect, and is represented by defocused spots formed by the cross-section of the focused image plane with the specified field-of-view and the light of the specified wavelength, which can include multiple fields-of-view and light of multiple wavelengths at the same time. Therefore, the quality of the imaging quality of the optical system can be directly measured by the density, shape, and size of the defocused spots of the spot diagram, and the chromatic aberration of the optical system can be directly measured by the dislocation degree of the defocused spots with different wavelengths of the spot diagram. A smaller Root Mean Square (RMS) radius of the spot diagram results in a higher imaging quality of the optical system.

The present application provides a head-mounted near-to-eye display device, including a miniature image displayer, and further including the reflective eyepiece optical system according to any one of above items, wherein, the eyepiece optical system is located between the human eye and the miniature image displayer.


Preferably, the miniature image displayer is an organic electroluminescence device.


Preferably, the head-mounted near-to-eye display device includes two identical reflective eyepiece optical systems.


To sum up, the first lens group of the reflective eyepiece optical system in the above examples of the present invention includes three sub-lens groups, which are the first sub-lens group, the second sub-lens group, the third sub-lens group, and the fourth sub-lens group, respectively. The effective focal lengths of the first sub-lens group, the second sub-lens group, and the third sub-lens group adopt a combination of positive, negative, and positive, which fully corrects aberrations of the system and improves the optical resolution of the system. More importantly, with the transmission and reflection properties of the first optical element and the second lens group, the second lens group has a reflection surface, which effectively folds the optical path, reduces the overall size of the eyepiece optical system, and improves the possibility of subsequent mass production. At the same time, the second lens group and the focal length combination relationship between the first sub-lens group, the second sub-lens group, the third sub-lens group, and the fourth sub-lens group are arranged to further correct the aberrations, which improves the processibility. On the basis of miniaturization, cost and weight reduction for the article, the aberrations of the optical system are greatly eliminated, and the basic optical indicators are also improved, ensuring high image quality and increasing the size of the picture angle. Therefore, an observer can watch large images of full frame, high definition and uniform image quality without any distortion and get visual experience of high liveness via the present invention, which is suitable for head-mounted near-to-eye display devices and similar devices thereof.


It should be understood that, for one of ordinary skill in the art, the foregoing description can be modified or altered, and all such modifications and alterations fall into the scope of the attached claims of the present invention.
