BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to an imaging lens which forms an image of an object on a solid-state image sensor such as a CCD sensor or a C-MOS sensor used in an imaging device.

Description of the Related Art

In recent years, it becomes common that camera function is mounted in various products, such as home appliances, information terminal equipment, automobiles, and the like. Development of products with the camera function will be made accordingly.

The imaging lens mounted in such equipment is required to be compact and to have high-resolution performance.

As a conventional imaging lens aiming high performance, for example, the imaging lens disclosed in the following Patent Document 1 (CN105607232A) has been known.

Patent Document 1 discloses an imaging lens comprising, in order from an object side, a first lens with positive refractive power having a convex object-side surface, a second lens with refractive power having a convex image-side surface, a third lens with negative refractive power, a fourth lens with negative refractive power having an aspheric image-side surface, and a fifth lens with refractive power having a convex image-side surface, wherein a relationship between a total track length and a focal length of an overall optical system satisfies a certain condition.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

However, in lens configurations disclosed in the Patent Document 1, when a low F-number is to be realized, it is very difficult to correct aberrations at a peripheral area, and excellent optical performance can not be obtained.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an imaging lens with high resolution which satisfies demand of a low profile and the low F-number in well balance and excellently corrects aberrations.

Regarding terms used in the present invention, “a convex surface (a surface being convex)”, “a concave surface (a surface being concave)” or “a flat surface (a surface being flat)” of lens surfaces implies a shape of the lens surface in a paraxial region (near the optical axis). “Refractive power” implies the refractive power in a paraxial region. “A pole point” implies an off-axial point on an aspheric surface at which a tangential plane intersects the optical axis perpendicularly. “A total track length” is defined as a distance along the optical axis from an object-side surface of an optical element located closest to the object to an image plane. “The total track length” and “a back focus” is a distance obtained when thickness of an IR cut filter or a cover glass which may be arranged between the imaging lens and the image plane is converted into an air-converted distance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Hereinafter, the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail referring to the accompanying drawings.

FIGS. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 are schematic views of the imaging lenses in Examples 1 to 8 according to the embodiments of the present invention, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 1, the imaging lens according to the present invention comprises, in order from an object side to an image side, a first lens L1 with positive refractive power having an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region, a second lens L2 with negative refractive power having an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region, a third lens L3 with positive or negative refractive power in a paraxial region, a fourth lens L4 with negative refractive power in a paraxial region, and a fifth lens L5 with positive refractive power having an image-side surface being convex in a paraxial region.

A filter IR such as an IR cut filter or a cover glass is arranged between the fifth lens L5 and an image plane IMG (namely, the image plane of an image sensor). The filter IR is omissible.

By arranging an aperture stop ST on the object side of the first lens L1, correction of aberrations and control of an incident angle of the light ray of high image height to an image sensor become facilitated. In addition, the aperture stop ST may be arranged between the third lens L3 and the fourth lens L4. In this case, reduction in a size in a radial direction can be achieved.

The first lens L1 has the positive refractive power and is formed in a meniscus shape having the object-side surface being convex and an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region (near the optical axis X). Therefore, reduction in a profile is achieved, and spherical aberration, astigmatism and distortion are properly corrected.

The second lens L2 has the negative refractive power and is formed in a meniscus shape having the object-side surface being convex and an image-side surface being concave in the paraxial region. Therefore, the spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, coma aberration, the astigmatism, and the distortion are properly corrected.

The third lens L3 has the positive refractive power and is formed in a meniscus shape having an object-side surface being convex and an image-side surface being concave in the paraxial region. Therefore, the coma aberration, the astigmatism, the field curvature, and the distortion are properly corrected.

The third lens L3 may have negative refractive power as in the Examples 2, 5, 6, 7 and 8 shown in FIGS. 3, 9, 11, 13 and 15. This case is favorable for correcting the chromatic aberration.

The fourth lens L4 has the negative refractive power and is formed in a biconcave shape having an object-side surface and an image-side surface being both concave in the paraxial region. Therefore, the chromatic aberration, the astigmatism, and the distortion are properly corrected.

The fifth lens L5 has the positive refractive power and is formed in a biconvex shape having an object-side surface and the image-side surface being both convex in the paraxial region. Therefore, reduction in the profile is achieved, and the spherical aberration, the astigmatism, the field curvature, and the distortion are properly corrected. When the image-side surface of the fifth lens L5 is convex in the paraxial region, a light ray incident angle to an image sensor can be appropriately controlled. As a result, a diameter of the fifth lens L5 can be reduced, and a small diameter of the imaging lens can be achieved.

The fifth lens L5 may be formed in a meniscus shape having the object-side surface being convex and the image-side surface being concave in the paraxial region as in the Examples 5, 6, 7 and 8 shown in FIGS. 9, 11, 13 and 15. In this case, a light ray incident angle to the fifth lens L5 can be appropriately controlled, and the distortion can be properly corrected.

Regarding the imaging lens according to the present embodiments, it is preferable that all lenses of the first lens L1 to the fifth lens L5 are single lenses. Configuration only with the single lenses can frequently use the aspheric surfaces. In the present embodiments, all lens surfaces are formed as appropriate aspheric surfaces, and the aberrations are favorably corrected. Furthermore, in comparison with a case in which a cemented lens is used, workload is reduced, and manufacturing in low cost becomes possible.

Furthermore, the imaging lens according to the present embodiments makes manufacturing facilitated by using a plastic material for the lenses, and mass production in a low cost can be realized.

The material applied to the lens is not limited to the plastic material. By using glass material, further high performance may be aimed. It is preferable that all of lens-surfaces are formed as aspheric surfaces, however, spherical surfaces easy to be manufactured may be adopted in accordance with required performance.

The imaging lens according to the present embodiments shows preferable effect by satisfying the following conditional expressions (1) to (16).

The imaging lens in Example 1 satisfies conditional expressions (1) to (16) as shown in Table 9.

FIG. 2 shows spherical aberration (mm), astigmatism (mm), and distortion (%) of the imaging lens in Example 1. The spherical aberration diagram shows the amount of aberration at each wavelength of F-ray (486 nm), d-ray (588 nm), and C-ray (656 nm). The astigmatism diagram shows the amount of aberration at d-ray on a sagittal image surface S (solid line) and the amount of aberration at d-ray on tangential image surface T (broken line), respectively (same as FIGS. 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16). As shown in FIG. 2, each aberration is corrected excellently.

The imaging lens in Example 8 satisfies conditional expressions (1) to (16) as shown in Table 9.

FIG. 16 shows spherical aberration (mm), astigmatism (mm), and distortion (%) of the imaging lens in Example 8. As shown in FIG. 16, each aberration is corrected excellently.

In table 9, values of conditional expressions (1) to (16) related to Examples 1 to 8 are shown.
