Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a panoramic imaging lens capable of capturing a 360 ° field of view as an annular image. Conventionally, as a panoramic imaging lens capable of imaging a 360 ° field of view at a time, JP-A-59-19222 is disclosed.
No. 0 and its corresponding USP 4566763, US
There was a lens disclosed in P5473474.
As shown in FIG. 10, the panoramic imaging lens 1 is formed of a light-transmitting material such as optical glass or transparent resin so as to be rotationally symmetrical around the optical axis that is the center of the lens. The panoramic imaging lens 1 is formed in an annular shape so as to be adjacent to and substantially opposite to the annular light incident surface 2 on which lateral light enters from the entire 360 ° circumference.
A first reflecting surface 3 that reflects light inward, and a reflected light from the first reflecting surface 3 provided at the center of the ring of the light incident surface 2 toward the inner portion of the ring of the first reflecting surface 3 The second reflective surface 4 is provided. A light emitting surface 5 that transmits light from the second reflecting surface 4 is formed at a position facing the second reflecting surface 4 at the center in the ring of the first reflecting surface 3. The light incident surface 2 is formed in a convex lens shape that bulges sideways, and the second reflecting surface 4 at the center thereof is formed in a concave shape, and the inner surface side of the lens 1 is a convex mirror-like reflecting surface. The first reflecting surface 3 adjacent to the light incident surface 2
Also, it is shaped like a convex surface that bulges sideways, and the inner surface side of the lens 1 is a reflecting surface of an annular concave mirror facing the direction of the second reflecting surface 4. The light emitting surface 5 is appropriately formed in a concave surface, a convex surface, or a planar shape. As shown in FIG. 10, the panoramic imaging system using this panoramic imaging lens 1 has a panoramic imaging adapter 10 provided with a panoramic imaging lens 1 and an imaging relay lens 6 provided on the optical axis thereof. And an imaging device 8 such as a video camera to which the panorama imaging adapter 10 is attached. The imaging device 8 includes a lens system 9 for capturing an image, an imaging element 7 such as a CCD provided at the imaging position, and other necessary control units (not shown). 3 captured by the panoramic imaging lens 1
The 60 ° panoramic landscape 11 image is converted into an electrical signal by the image sensor 7 of the imaging device 8 and is displayed on various monitor devices 14 such as liquid crystal or CRT. This panoramic imaging lens 1 has a 360 ° panoramic landscape 11 when the panoramic imaging adapter 10 is arranged with the light incident surface 2 facing upward as shown in FIG.
When the lowermost light L1 of the incident light is incident on the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1, it is refracted by the light incident surface 2 and directed toward the second reflective surface 4 by the first reflective surface 3 on the opposite side. Then, the light is further reflected by the second reflecting surface 4 and emitted from the light emitting surface 5, and forms an image on the periphery of the image sensor 7 through the relay lens 6. Further, when the uppermost light L2 of the incident light from the panoramic landscape 11 is incident on the light incident surface 2,
The light is refracted by the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1, reflected by the first reflecting surface 2 on the facing side toward the second reflecting surface 4, and further reflected by the second reflecting surface 4 and emitted from the light emitting surface 5. Then, an image is formed on a portion near the center of the image sensor 7 through the relay lens 6. As described above, the panoramic landscape 11 is formed in an annular shape on the image sensor 7 and is displayed on the monitor device 14 as an annular two-dimensional image 12. In the case of the above prior art, part of the light incident from the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1 is incident on the image sensor 7 as flare or ghost. There was a problem. For example, as shown in FIG. 11A, the flare or the like occurs when noise light Ln from outside that acts as flare or the like is mixed on the optical path in the lens of the regular imaging light L0. It was.
As shown in FIG. 11A, the noise light Ln is incident from another position on the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1,
Panorama imaging lens 1 without being involved in imaging on the image sensor 7
On the other hand, after being reflected by the first reflecting surface 3 and the second reflecting surface 4, most of the noise light Ln goes out from the light incident surface 2 again.
However, only a part of the noise light Ln is the noise light Ln.
1 is internally reflected by the light incident surface 2 in the panoramic imaging lens 1 and proceeds so as to coincide with the optical path in the lens of the regular imaging light L0. Therefore, this noise light L
The noise light Ln1, which is a part of n, is internally reflected by the light incident surface 2, reaches the image sensor 7 in alignment with the optical path of the regular image light L0, and appears as flare or ghost. In addition to the above, the intrusion path of the noise light Ln is regular due to internal reflection at the light incident surface 2 after being repeatedly reflected in the panoramic imaging lens 1 as shown in FIG. This coincides with the incident optical path of the imaging light L0, and causes noise light Ln2 that causes flare or the like, and as shown in FIG. In some cases, the noise light Ln3 causes flare or the like that coincides with the incident optical path of the regular imaging light L0 due to internal reflection of the light. Such flares and ghosts are particularly prone to act as noise light Ln because some light enters from the 360 ° outer periphery by the panoramic imaging lens 1. Further, when this panoramic imaging system is used as a surveillance camera or the like, the flare and the ghost have an adverse effect on the adjustment of the light amount and the quality of the captured image is deteriorated. The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and provides a panoramic imaging lens capable of reliably suppressing noise light causing flare and ghost with a simple structure.

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a panoramic imaging lens capable of capturing a 360 ° field of view as an annular image. Conventionally, as a panoramic imaging lens capable of imaging a 360 ° field of view at a time, JP-A-59-19222 is disclosed.
Also, it is shaped like a convex surface that bulges sideways, and the inner surface side of the lens 1 is a reflecting surface of an annular concave mirror facing the direction of the second reflecting surface 4. The light emitting surface 5 is appropriately formed in a concave surface, a convex surface, or a planar shape. As shown in FIG. 7 , a panoramic imaging system using this panoramic imaging lens 1 includes a panoramic imaging adapter 10 having a panoramic imaging lens 1 and an image forming relay lens 6 provided on the optical axis thereof. And an imaging device 8 such as a video camera to which the panorama imaging adapter 10 is attached. The imaging device 8 includes a lens system 9 for capturing an image, an imaging element 7 such as a CCD provided at the imaging position, and other necessary control units (not shown). 3 captured by the panoramic imaging lens 1
The 60 ° panoramic landscape 11 image is converted into an electrical signal by the image sensor 7 of the imaging device 8 and is displayed on various monitor devices 14 such as liquid crystal or CRT. In this panoramic imaging lens 1, when the panoramic imaging adapter 10 is arranged with the light incident surface 2 facing upward as shown in FIG.
When the lowermost light L1 of the incident light is incident on the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1, it is refracted by the light incident surface 2.
Reflected by the first reflecting surface 3 on the opposite side toward the second reflecting surface 4, further reflected by the second reflecting surface 4, emitted from the light emitting surface 5, and close to the periphery of the image sensor 7 through the relay lens 6. Form an image on the part. Further, when the uppermost light L2 of the incident light from the panoramic landscape 11 is incident on the light incident surface 2, it is refracted by the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1 and is reflected by the first reflecting surface 2 on the opposite side. The light is reflected toward the reflecting surface 4, further reflected by the second reflecting surface 4, exits from the light exit surface 5, and forms an image on a portion near the center of the image sensor 7 via the relay lens 6. As described above, the panoramic landscape 11 is formed in an annular shape on the image sensor 7 and is displayed on the monitor device 14 as an annular two-dimensional image 12. In the case of the above prior art, part of the light incident from the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1 is incident on the image sensor 7 as flare or ghost. There was a problem. For example, as shown in FIG. 8A , this flare phenomenon is caused by the fact that external noise light Ln acting as flare or the like is mixed on the optical path in the lens of the regular imaging light L0. It was. As shown in FIG. 8A , the noise light Ln is incident from another position on the light incident surface 2 of the panoramic imaging lens 1 and is not involved in the image formation on the imaging element 7, and is inside the panoramic imaging lens 1. Thus, after being reflected by the first reflecting surface 3 and the second reflecting surface 4, most of the noise light Ln goes out of the light incident surface 2 again. However, only a small part of the noise light Ln is the noise light Ln1.
Is internally reflected by the light incident surface 2 in the panoramic imaging lens 1 and proceeds so as to coincide with the optical path in the lens of the regular imaging light L0. Therefore, this noise light Ln
The noise light Ln1 that is a part of the image sensor 7 is internally reflected by the light incident surface 2, and then coincides with the optical path of the regular imaging light L0, so that the imaging device 7
And appear as flare and ghost. In addition to the above, the intrusion path of the noise light Ln is regular due to internal reflection at the light incident surface 2 after being repeatedly reflected in the panoramic imaging lens 1 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 8 (c), the noise light Ln2 that causes flare or the like coincides with the incident optical path of the imaging light L0 .
There may be a case of noise light Ln3 that causes flare or the like in accordance with the incident optical path of the normal imaging light L0 due to internal reflection at the light incident surface 2 after being reflected once in the panoramic imaging lens 1. Such flares and ghosts are particularly prone to act as noise light Ln because some light enters from the 360 ° outer periphery by the panoramic imaging lens 1. Further, when this panoramic imaging system is used as a surveillance camera or the like, the flare and the ghost have an adverse effect on the adjustment of the light amount and the quality of the captured image is deteriorated. The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and provides a panoramic imaging lens capable of reliably suppressing noise light causing flare and ghost with a simple structure. For the purpose. The present invention is formed of a light-transmitting material such as optical glass or transparent resin, and is formed rotationally symmetric about the optical axis at the center of the lens.
