Projection-lens system

Claim 2

A projection-lens system for projecting a magnified image of a scene reproduced by means of a reproduction element onto a projection screen, which lens system comprises, in this order and viewed from the image side, a first group having one aspheric surface, a positive second or main group having two spherical convex outer surface, and a third group comprising a planoconcave lens element whose concave surface which faces the image side is aspheric, the elements of the first group and of the third group being made of transparent plastic, characterized in that the main group provides substantially the entire power of the lens system and comprises a cemented doublet of a convex-concave elment and a biconvex lens element, which elements have substantially equal refractive indices and different dispersions.

Claim 3

A projection-lens system as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the diameters of the consecutive lens elements decrease viewed from the object side.

Claim 4

A projection-lens system as claimed in claim 1 or 2, characterized in the focal length F is approximately 85 mm and the numerical aperture N.A. is approximately 0.35, and the axial curvatures C of the lens surfaces, the axial distances d between these surfaces and the refractive indices n have the following values, viewed from the image side: ______________________________________ C (mm.sup.-1) d (mm) n ______________________________________ S.sub.1 0.012411 L.sub.1 10.00 1.490 S.sub.2 0.011446 15.77 S.sub.3 0.008615 L.sub.2 3.00 1.625 S.sub.4 0.019000 L.sub.3 33.40 1.592 S.sub.5 -0.014471 63.03 S.sub.6 -0.021474 L.sub.4 3.00 1.490 S.sub.7 0.000000 ______________________________________ whilst the aspheric coefficients a 2i of the two aspheric surfaces S 1 and S 6 , which may be characterized by: ##EQU2## where Y is the distance from a point on the aspheric surface to the optical axis of the lens and Z is the distance between the projection of this point on the optical axis and the intersection of the optical axis with the aspheric surface, are given by: ______________________________________ S.sub.1 a.sub.2 = 0.620569 10.sup.-2 a.sub.4 = 0.226045 10.sup.-5 a.sub.6 = 0.305348 10.sup.-8 a.sub.8 = -0.467834 10.sup.-11 a.sub.10 = 0.285971 10.sup.-14 a.sub.12 = -0.727729 10.sup.-18 S.sub.6 a.sub.2 = -0.107368 10.sup.-1 a.sub.4 = -0.535898 10.sup.-5 a.sub.6 = 0.497709 10.sup.-8 a.sub.8 = -0.609099 10.sup.-11 a.sub.10 = 0.363103 10.sup.-14 a.sub.12 = -0.879444 10.sup.-18 ______________________________________

Claim 5

A colour-television projection system comprising three cathode-rays tubes, one for each of the primary colours red, green and blue, a projection screen, and three projection lens systems, which are each arranged between one of the cathode-ray tubes and the projection screen, characterized in that at least the projection-lens system in the radiation path from the green cathode-ray tube is a projection-lens system as claimed in claim 1 or 2.
