LENS HAVING MULTIPLE CONIC SECTIONS FOR LEDS AND PROXIMITY SENSORS

摘要

A lens element comprising a base, a plurality of lens sections and a top lens section is disclosed. The plurality of lens sections are formed above a planar parallel to the base with each of the lens sections being positioned rotationally symmetric about an optical axis. The lens sections define a dome shape with every adjoining lens sections being conjugated with each other. A top lens section is formed at the center above the other lens sections and conjugated therewith. All of the lens sections are conjugated with each of its neighboring lens sections. Each of the lens sections has a optical property to direct light towards a target point. The target point may be positioned along the optical axis.
