Class Information
Number: 359/642
Name: Optical: systems and elements > Lens
Description: Subject matter including either a single transparent mass of refractive material having opposed refracting surfaces or a plurality of such masses arranged along an optical axis with their opposed refracting surfaces disposed transversely of such axis, the said opposed surfaces being so shaped and spaced that the mass or plurality of masses are capable of producing, from light rays passing therethrough from an object external to the mass or masses, a single image of that object at a focal point.
