    Abstract: A design method of freeform imaging lens with a wide linear field-of-view (FOV) is provided. A initial freeform imaging lens is developed, and the initial freeform imaging lens includes a first lens surface and an entrance pupil spaced from each other, wherein the FOV of the system 2? (±?) is divided into 2k+1 sampling fields with equal interval ?? between each two adjacent sampling fields. Each two adjacent sampling fields are taken as one group. Two constraints are employed to calculate the plurality of data points of the first lens surface to obtain a front surface of the freeform imaging lens. The data points are calculated based on Snell's law, and a curve is obtained through the data points. A back surface is added to approximately keep the previous outgoing direction of rays from the front surface.

  • Patent number: 9833959
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing frame elements for a frame for holding and arranging electrochemical cells in an electrochemical energy-storage unit. The present invention also relates to the use of certain plastics mixtures for producing said frame elements. The frame elements or frames of the invention are particularly preferably used in electrochemical energy-storage units with high power density. Electrochemical energy-storage units of this type with high power density are more particularly used for the operation of motor vehicles with electrical drive, for example in vehicles which are driven on the “hybrid” principle (electrical drive and internal combustion engine), and are also preferably used for exclusively or primarily electrically operated vehicles. It is preferable here to use, as electrochemical energy-storage units with high power density, lithium-ion batteries or lithium-polymer batteries.
