Camera optical lens

The present disclosure relates to the field of optical lens, and more particularly, to a camera optical lens suitable for handheld terminal devices, such as smart phones or digital cameras, and camera devices, such as monitors or PC lenses.

With the emergence of smart phones in recent years, the demand for miniature camera optical lens is increasingly higher, but in general the photosensitive devices of camera optical lens are nothing more than Charge Coupled Devices (CCDs) or Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Sensors (CMOS sensors). As the progress of the semiconductor manufacturing technology makes the pixel size of the photosensitive devices become smaller, plus the current development trend of electronic products towards better functions and thinner and smaller dimensions, miniature camera optical lenses with good imaging quality have become a mainstream in the market.

In order to obtain better imaging quality, the lens that is traditionally equipped in mobile phone cameras adopts a three-piece or four-piece lens structure, or even a five-piece or six-piece lens structure. Also, with the development of technology and the increase of the diverse demands of users, and as the pixel area of photosensitive devices is becoming smaller and smaller and the requirement of the system on the imaging quality becoming increasingly higher, a seven-piece lens structure gradually emerges in lens designs. Although the common seven-piece lens has good optical performance, its refractive power, lens spacing and lens shape settings still have some irrationality, such that the lens structure cannot achieve high optical performance while satisfying design requirements for ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses having large apertures.

In view of the problems, the present disclosure aims to provide a camera optical lens, which can achieve high optical performance while satisfying design requirements for ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses having large apertures.

In an embodiment, the present disclosure provides a camera optical lens. The camera optical lens sequentially includes, from an object side to an image side: a first lens having a positive refractive power; a second lens; a third lens; a fourth lens having a positive refractive power; a fifth lens having a negative refractive power; a sixth lens having a positive refractive power; and a seventh lens having a negative refractive power. The camera optical lens satisfies following conditions: 1.50≤d1/d13≤30.00; 5≤0.00≤(d1+d2)/d6≤8.00; and −50.00≤(R5+R6)/(R7+R8)≤−5.00, where d1 denotes an on-axis thickness of the first lens; d2 denotes an on-axis distance from an image side surface of the first lens to an object side surface of the second lens; d6 denotes an on-axis distance from an image side surface of the third lens to an object side surface of the fourth lens; d13 denotes an on-axis thickness of the seventh lens; R5 denotes a curvature radius of an object side surface of the third lens; R6 denotes a curvature radius of the image side surface of the third lens; R7 denotes a curvature radius of the object side surface of the fourth lens; R8 denotes a curvature radius of an image side surface of the fourth lens.

The present disclosure has advantageous effects in that the camera optical lens according to the present disclosure has excellent optical characteristics and is ultra-thin, wide-angle and has a large aperture, making it especially suitable for high-pixel camera optical lens assembly of mobile phones and WEB camera optical lenses formed by camera elements such as CCD and CMOS.
