Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The lenticular lens is a plano-convex lens, which can be regarded as a combination of a convex lens and a plane mirror, and generally includes a curved lenticular lens and a planar lenticular lens, wherein the lenticular lens generally includes a light guide element and a lens element, and the lens element is disposed at the upper end of the light guide element and is spherical. The geometry of the lenticular lens includes a prismatic or cylindrical shape having a constant cylindrical cross section, and a pyramidal or conical shape having a tapered cross section of the light guiding element. It will be appreciated that in the case of prismatic or pyramidal shapes, a myopic spherical surface of the lens element may be achieved. As shown in fig. 1, the conventional lenticular lens is generally a spherical or spherical lens, i.e. the lens element is spherical, and has a small focal point on the sub-pixel on the surface of the TFT panel, when the viewing angle changes, the position of the focal point will move with the change of the angle, and the light of each sub-pixel is emitted from different angles, thereby achieving the desired 3D light splitting effect. However, a variation in the viewing angle causes a fluctuation in the brightness (as shown in fig. 1). In which brightness fluctuations cause a series of problems such as moire patterns appearing on a white screen, image variations when viewing angles are changed, and small depth of focus. However, these problems affect the quality of the 3D image.
In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a lenticular lens, as shown in fig. 2 to 3, including an arc curved surface 20, where the arc curved surface 20 includes a plurality of sub-arc surfaces 202; wherein the size of each sub-arc surface 202 is greater than or equal to one-half width of the sub-pixel and less than one-third pitch of the lenticular lens.
In particular, there are typically some relevant parameters for a lenticular lens, including pitch (pitch), radius of curvature (radius of curvature), and thickness, among others. The pitch of the lenticular lens is the size of the circular arc surface (as shown in fig. 3).
In the present embodiment, the lenticular lens includes a circular arc surface 20, which is cut into a plurality of small segments, i.e. sub-arc surfaces 202, wherein the sub-arc surfaces 202 are combined to form a complete circular arc surface 20. The size (i.e. the length of the arc) of each sub-arc surface may be equal or unequal as long as the size is greater than or equal to one-half width of the sub-pixel and less than one-third pitch of the lenticular lens; i.e., 1/2W ≦ S < 1/3P, where W represents the pitch of the sub-pixels, S represents the size of the sub-arc, and P represents the pitch of the lenticular lenses.
In the lenticular lens according to the embodiment of the present invention, the circular arc curved surface in the conventional lens system is divided or cut into a plurality of sub-curved surfaces, and when light passes through the sub-curved surfaces, the light is under-focused, but the light is directed or positioned at the same position, the focus point is increased, the focus depth is also increased, and when the viewing angle is changed, the brightness of the lens is kept stable (as shown in fig. 2). In addition, the focus point is closer to the size of the sub-pixels, so that transition among the sub-pixels is smoother, moire fringes can be effectively reduced, and the display effect of the 3D image is enhanced.
In addition, the working principle of the lenticular lens is as follows: as shown in fig. 2, assuming that the focal point of the arc curved surface 20 is on the surface of the sub-pixel 21, the sub-arc surface 202 is arranged along the arc curved surface 20, the arc radius of the sub-arc surface 202 is smaller than that of the arc curved surface 20, the focal point thereof will fall at 203, and when the sub-pixel 21 is reached, the sub-arc surface is slightly out of focus, becoming a relatively large focal point 204, and the focal points of other sub-pixels also fall at 204. The defocused focus of the sub-arc 202 avoids focusing on a dark area that does not emit light, and when the viewing angle changes, the position of the focus moves with the angle change, but the brightness is more stable than that of a conventional lens.
The curvature radius Rs of the sub-arc 202 cannot be too large or too small, too large (Rs >4/5R L) results in insufficient defocus effect, and too small (Rs <1/2R L) results in too large defocus focus, and in addition, the width dimension S of the sub-arc 202 needs to be matched with the resolution of the picture, namely the size of the sub-pixel, and too large (S >1/3P) affects the resolution, and too small (S <1/2W) increases the processing difficulty.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the radius of curvature of each sub-arc surface 202 is greater than one-half the radius of curvature of the curved arc surface and less than four-fifths the radius of curvature of the curved arc surface.
Specifically, the surface of the lenticular lens is a cylindrical surface, and the cross section of the lenticular lens is a circular arc, wherein the circular arc has a radius of curvature, and the radius of curvature is mainly used to describe the degree of curve curvature change at a certain position on the curve, for example, the degree of curvature is the same at all positions on the circle, so the radius of curvature is the radius of the circle. It can be seen that, in order to accurately determine each sub-arc surface, it is important to determine the curvature radius of each sub-arc surface.
In the present embodiment, each sub-arc surface 202 has the same radius of curvature, which is greater than the radius of curvature of one-half circular arc surface and less than the radius of curvature of four-fifths circular arc surface, i.e. 1/2RL≤Rs<4/5RLWherein R isLThe radius of curvature of the circular arc surface is shown, and Rs represents the radius of curvature of the subarc surface. The curvature radius of each sub-arc surface is determined, so that the cutting can be more accurate when the sub-arc surfaces are cut, the light can be ensured to be more pointed to the same position when passing through each sub-arc surface, and the brightness of the light is more stable when the visual angle is changed.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the sub-arcs of the lenticular lens may be convex inward (i.e. in contrast to fig. 2, 3, where the sub-arcs of fig. 2 and 3 are convex outward), as long as the refractive index of the convex portions (grey) is greater than that of the concave portions (white). In this way, the shape of the lenticular lens can be more diversified.
In one embodiment, the curved surface is formed by processing a lenticular lens mold, wherein the lenticular lens mold comprises a plurality of arc structures, each arc structure is used for forming a sub-arc surface, the plurality of arc structures of the lenticular lens mold are formed by cutting the whole arc surface of the lenticular lens mold by using a cutting tool, the radius of curvature of the sub-arc surface is equal to the radius of the arc surface of the tool tip of the cutting tool, and the size of the whole arc surface of the lenticular lens mold is larger than or equal to that of the curved surface.
When the arc curved surface is cut to form each sub-arc surface, the arc curved surface is mainly formed by using a die with a plurality of arc surface structures. The plurality of cambered surface structures of the die are formed by cutting the whole cambered surface of the die by adopting a cutting tool, wherein the cutting tool is provided with a tool tip circular arc radius, so that the curvature radius of the cambered surface structure is equal to the tool tip circular arc radius of the cutting tool, and the curvature radius of the cambered surface structure is the curvature radius of the sub-cambered surface. By adopting the method, the curvature radius of each sub-arc surface can be accurately determined, so that the sub-arc surfaces are formed.
In one embodiment, the cutting tool comprises a diamond tool, a cubic boron nitride tool, or a tungsten steel tool.
In one embodiment, the curved surface is replicated by hot embossing the optical polymer material.
Specifically, the arc curved surface is mainly manufactured by hot pressing technology and optical polymer materials, and the optical polymer materials are good in performance, easy to mold and small in processing difficulty on one hand, and the cylindrical lens manufactured by the optical polymer materials is good in performance on the other hand.
Optionally, the optical polymer material is one of acrylic resin, polycarbonate, silicone, poly (terephthalic acid) resin, uv-curable glue or epoxy resin.

The size S of the sub-arc surfaces, the radius of curvature Rs, and the number (i.e., number) of the sub-arc surfaces, which are determined according to the limitation in the embodiment of the lenticular lens of the present invention, are determined, and then the number of the sub-arc surfaces is determined according to the determined size S and the radii of curvature Rs and P. It should be understood that the sub-arc surface size S, the radius of curvature Rs and the number of sub-arc surfaces may be a plurality of values, i.e. the corresponding cutting manner is also a plurality; in practice, the user can select the optimal solution according to his needs (e.g. most convenient cutting, best effect after cutting, etc.).
And step S504, processing the cylindrical lens material by using a cylindrical lens mould according to the size, the curvature radius and the number to form sub-arc surfaces with corresponding number.

When the cutting is needed, the cutting tool can be enabled to move uniformly along the Y axis at the position determined by the X axis coordinate and the Z axis coordinate until the position of the Y axis coordinate is reached, and then the cutting is carried out.
Wherein, the notch coordinate is mainly determined by the size S of the sub-arc surface and the curvature radius Rs of the sub-arc surface.
