Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は拡大投影等に用いられる投影レンズ、特にF1:4.0程度の明るさを有し、半画角40°前後迄包括し、変倍域に於いて良好な性能が得られる投影レンズに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
近年の拡大投影装置に於いて、例えば画像変調素子として用いられる液晶の高解像度化が進み、拡大投影装置全体での高解像度が求められている。又、装置自体としては小型化が進み広画角化、コンパクト化の要求があると共にコストダウンが要求されている。
【0003】
高解像度化、広画角化の要求に対応する為にはレンズ枚数を増やしたり、レンズ材の屈折率を高くしたりしていたが、レンズ系が大きくなり、コストアップの原因となっいた。
【0004】
又、レンズ枚数を減らす方法の1つとしてレンズを非球面化したプラスチックモールドレンズを使用する方法が知られているが、プラスチック材で成形されたレンズは温度変化により屈折率が大幅に変化するという特性を有している。この為、レンズのバックフォーカスが変化し、解像力を劣化してしまうという問題があった。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は斯かる実情に鑑み、半画角ω=40°程度という広画角を包括可能とし、構成枚数の大部分にプラスチックレンズの非球面レンズを使用し、構成枚数を少なくし、安価なレンズ系を実現すると共に温度変化の影響を受けにくく而も諸収差が良好に補正された広画角を包括可能で、コンパクト化、コストダウンを図った投影レンズを提供するものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、拡大側より発散性レンズ群と収斂性レンズ群と、フレネルレンズ群とを有する変倍投影レンズに於いて、発散性レンズ群は拡大側から順に拡大側に凸面を向けた少なくとも1個の負メニスカスレンズを有する2個の負レンズG1,G2と、正レンズG3とを有し、前記収斂性レンズ群は、拡大側から順に正レンズG4,G5と、レンズG6、拡大側に凹面を向けた負のメニスカスレンズG7を有し、前記発散性レンズ群のG1,G2はプラスチック材料より成り、少なくとも1面は非球面から成るレンズ構成とし、前記収斂性レンズ群のG5,G7はプラスチック材料より成り、少なくとも1面は非球面から成るレンズ構成とし、前記フレネルレンズ群は正の屈折力を持ち縮小側にフレネル面を持つフレネルレンズから構成され、発散性レンズ群と収斂性レンズ群の間の距離と、収斂性レンズ群とフレネルレンズ群の間の距離とを変化させることにより倍率を変化させるものであり、且下記の条件を満足する投影レンズに係るものである。
(1)−1.1<f12/f<−0.86
(2)1.05<f5/f<1.35
(3)−22.5<f7/f<−3.0
(4)40<ν3<55
但し、f :ワイド側レンズ全系の焦点距離
12:レンズG1,G2の合成焦点距離
5:レンズG5の焦点距離
7:レンズG7の焦点距離
ν3:レンズG3のアッベ数
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図面を参照しつつ本発明の実施の形態を説明する。
【0008】
図1は本実施の形態の投影レンズの構成を示しており、該投影レンズは拡大側(前側)より発散性レンズ群1、収斂性レンズ群2、フレネルレンズ群3が配置された構成を有する所謂レトロフォーカス型の投影レンズである。
【0009】
前記発散性レンズ群1の前側の2枚の負レンズG1,G2をプラスチック材料のレンズとし、そのうち少なくとも1枚を非球面化する。又、前記収斂性レンズ群2の正のレンズG5、負のレンズG7をプラスチック材料のレンズとする。
【0010】
図1で示す投影レンズの構成でFNoを明るくする為には、各レンズ群の焦点距離を長くし、各レンズ群の間隔を長くするとよいが、そうするとレンズ系全体が長くなり、コンパクト化にはならない。又、半画角が40°程度で拡角である為、軸外光束の収差補正には、それ程プラスにはならない。逆に発散性レンズ群の焦点距離を長くしコンパクト化を図ろうとすると、負のパワーが強くなり負の歪曲収差が増大する。前記した発散性レンズ群1の前側の2枚の負レンズG1,G2をプラスチック材料とし、そのうち少なくとも1枚を非球面化することで斯かる歪曲収差を補正している。
【0011】
又、一般にレンズ材料としてプラスチックを使用すると、プラスチックは温度変化により屈折率が変化する為、バックフォーカスが変化し、解像力が劣化してしまう。前記収斂性レンズ群2の正のレンズG5、負のレンズG7をプラスチック材料のレンズとした構成は、温度の変化によるバックフォーカスの変化を相殺する。
【0012】
前記投影レンズを構成するレンズの条件式を下記に示す。
【0013】
【条件式】
(1)−1.1<f12/f<−0.86
(2)1.05<f5/f<1.35
(3)−22.5<f7/f<−3.0
(4)40<ν3<55
但し、f :ワイド側レンズ全系の焦点距離
12:レンズG1,G2の合成焦点距離
5:レンズG5の焦点距離
7:レンズG7の焦点距離
ν3:レンズG3のアッベ数
【0014】
条件式(1)は負レンズG1,G2の合成焦点距離f12を規定するものである。
【0015】
合成焦点距離f12が上限を越えると負のパワーが強くなり、負の歪曲収差が増大する。又温度変化による焦点距離の変化をレンズG5 で相殺することが困難となる。逆に合成焦点距離f12が下限を越えると焦点距離が長くなる為、発散性レンズ群1での色収差が増大し、全体で色収差が補正不足となり解像力が劣化する。又発散性レンズ群1の全長が長くなり全体のコンパクト化が図れなくなる。
【0016】
条件式(2)は正レンズG5の焦点距離f5を規定するものである。
【0017】
焦点距離f5が上限を越えるとパワーが弱くなり、正レンズG4,G5 の合成焦点距離を一定に保とうとするとレンズG4のパワーが強くなり非点収差が増大し、最大画角での性能を良好に保てなくなる。逆に焦点距離f5 が下限を越えるとレンズG4 のパワーが強くなる為軸外での収差が増大し、性能を良好に保てなくなる。
【0018】
条件式(3)は負レンズG7の焦点距離f7を規定するものである。
【0019】
焦点距離f7が上限を越えると負のパワーが強くなりレンズG7から射出する角度が大きくなる。その後のフレネルレンズ群3に於いて、フレネルレンズ面から射出する光束を略平行光束に近づけようとするとフレネルレンズ面のプリズム切削角度がきつくなり、光量損失が大きくなると共に加工も困難になる為好ましくない。逆に焦点距離f7 が下限を越えるとフランジバックが長くなり装置全体が長くなってしまうので好ましくない。
【0020】
条件式(4)はレンズG3のアッベ数ν3を規定するものである。
【0021】
本発明はレンズG1,G2 にプラスチック材料を使用している為、レンズG1,G2の負レンズ群の色収差は略決まってしまう。その為、レンズG3のアッベ数ν3がこの範囲から外れると色収差が悪化し、解像力が劣化する。
【0022】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a projection lens used for magnified projection and the like, particularly a projection lens having a brightness of about F1: 4.0, including a half angle of view of around 40 °, and obtaining good performance in the zoom range. It is about.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent enlargement projection apparatuses, for example, the resolution of liquid crystal used as an image modulation element has been increased, and high resolution in the entire enlargement projection apparatus is required. In addition, the device itself has been reduced in size, and there has been a demand for a wider angle of view and a smaller size, and a cost reduction is required.
[0003]
In order to meet the demands for higher resolution and wider angle of view, the number of lenses has been increased and the refractive index of the lens material has been increased, but the lens system has become larger, leading to an increase in cost.
[0004]
Also, as one of the methods for reducing the number of lenses, there is known a method using a plastic molded lens having an aspherical lens. However, the refractive index of a lens molded from a plastic material changes greatly with temperature change. It has characteristics. For this reason, there is a problem that the back focus of the lens changes and the resolution is deteriorated.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In view of such a situation, the present invention can include a wide angle of view such as a half angle of view ω = 40 °, and a plastic lens aspherical lens is used for the majority of the number of components, which reduces the number of components and is inexpensive. The present invention provides a projection lens that realizes a lens system and is capable of including a wide angle of view that is not easily affected by temperature changes and in which various aberrations are well corrected, and that is compact and reduces costs.
[0006]

The Fresnel lens group is composed of a Fresnel lens having a positive refractive power and a Fresnel surface on the reduction side.

(4) 40 <ν 3 <55
Where f: focal length of the entire wide-side lens system f 12 : combined focal length of lenses G 1 and G 2 f 5 : focal length of lens G 5 f 7 : focal length of lens G 7 ν 3 : of lens G 3 Abbe number [0007]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0008]
FIG. 1 shows a configuration of a projection lens according to the present embodiment. The projection lens has a configuration in which a diverging lens group 1, a converging lens group 2, and a Fresnel lens group 3 are arranged from the magnification side (front side). This is a so-called retrofocus type projection lens.
[0009]
The two negative lenses G 1 and G 2 on the front side of the divergent lens group 1 are plastic lenses, and at least one of them is aspherical. Further, the positive lens G 5 and the negative lens G 7 of the convergent lens group 2 are plastic lenses.
[0010]
In order to brighten F No with the configuration of the projection lens shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable to lengthen the focal length of each lens group and lengthen the distance between each lens group. Must not. Further, since the half angle of view is about 40 ° and the angle is widened, the aberration correction of the off-axis light beam is not so positive. On the other hand, when the focal length of the divergent lens group is increased to reduce the size, the negative power increases and the negative distortion increases. The two negative lenses G 1 and G 2 on the front side of the divergent lens group 1 are made of a plastic material, and at least one of them is aspherical to correct such distortion.
[0011]
In general, when plastic is used as the lens material, the refractive index of the plastic changes due to temperature change, so that the back focus changes and the resolving power deteriorates. The configuration in which the positive lens G 5 and the negative lens G 7 of the convergent lens group 2 are made of plastic materials cancels back focus changes due to temperature changes.
[0012]
Conditional expressions of the lenses constituting the projection lens are shown below.
[0013]
[Conditional expression]
(1) -1.1 <f 12 /f<−0.86
(2) 1.05 <f 5 /f<1.35
(3) -22.5 <f 7 /f<−3.0
(4) 40 <ν 3 <55
Where f: focal length of the entire wide-side lens system f 12 : combined focal length of lenses G 1 and G 2 f 5 : focal length of lens G 5 f 7 : focal length of lens G 7 ν 3 : of lens G 3 Abbe number 【0014】
Conditional expression (1) defines the combined focal length f 12 of the negative lenses G 1 and G 2 .
[0015]
Negative power the composite focal length f 12 exceeds the upper limit becomes strong, negative distortion increases. Also it is difficult to offset the change in the focal length due to a temperature change in the lens G 5. Conversely, when the combined focal length f 12 exceeds the lower limit for the focal length becomes longer, increasing chromatic aberration in the divergent lens group 1, the chromatic aberration in the entire becomes resolution deteriorates sufficiently corrected. In addition, the total length of the divergent lens group 1 becomes long, and the overall compactness cannot be achieved.
[0016]
Conditional expression (2) defines the focal length f 5 of the positive lens G 5 .
[0017]
When the focal length f 5 exceeds the upper limit, the power is weakened. When the composite focal length of the positive lenses G 4 and G 5 is kept constant, the power of the lens G 4 becomes strong and astigmatism increases, and the maximum angle of view is increased. It will not be possible to keep the performance of On the contrary, when the focal length f 5 exceeds the lower limit, the power of the lens G 4 becomes strong, so that the off-axis aberration increases and the performance cannot be kept good.
[0018]
Conditional expression (3) defines the focal length f 7 of the negative lens G 7 .
[0019]
When the focal length f 7 exceeds the upper limit, the negative power increases and the angle emitted from the lens G 7 increases. In the subsequent Fresnel lens group 3, if the light beam emitted from the Fresnel lens surface is brought close to a substantially parallel light beam, the prism cutting angle of the Fresnel lens surface becomes tight, the light quantity loss increases and the processing becomes difficult. Absent. Entire flange back is lengthened device the focal length f 7 conversely exceeds the lower limit is not preferable because becomes long.
[0020]
Conditional expression (4) defines the Abbe number ν 3 of the lens G 3 .
[0021]
The present invention is being used for plastic material lens G 1, G 2, the chromatic aberration of the negative lens group of the lens G 1, G 2 would be approximately determined. Therefore, the Abbe number [nu 3 of the lens G 3 is deteriorated chromatic aberration is outside this range, the resolution deteriorates.
[0022]
