First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An optical imaging lens set, from an object side toward an image side in order along an optical axis comprising: a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element, a fifth lens element and a sixth lens element, each of the first lens element, the second lens element, the third lens element, the fourth lens element, the fifth lens element and the sixth lens element having refractive power, an object-side surface facing toward the object side as well as an image-side surface facing toward the image side, wherein: the first lens element has an image-side surface with a convex part in a vicinity of its periphery; the second lens element with negative refractive power has an object-side surface with a convex part in a vicinity of the optical axis, and an image-side surface with a concave part in a vicinity of the optical axis and a concave part in a vicinity of its periphery; the third lens element has an object-side surface with a concave part in a vicinity of the optical axis; the fourth lens element has an image-side surface with a convex part in a vicinity of the optical axis; the fifth lens element has an image-side surface with a concave part in a vicinity of the optical axis; the sixth lens element being made of plastic, has an image-side surface with a concave part in a vicinity of the optical axis and a convex part in a vicinity of its periphery; and the optical imaging lens set not including any lens element with refractive power other than said first lens element, second lens element, third lens element, fourth lens element, fifth lens element and sixth lens element, in addition, an air gap AC12 between said first lens element and said second lens element along said optical axis, an air gap AC56 between said fifth lens element and said sixth lens element along said optical axis, and a total thickness ALT of said first lens element, said second lens element, said third lens element, said fourth lens element, said fifth lens element and said sixth lens element along said optical axis satisfy a relationship 4.50 ≤ ALT AC ⁢ ⁢ 12 + AC ⁢ ⁢ 56 ≤ 17.00 . 2. The optical imaging lens set of claim 1 , wherein an air gap AC34 between said third lens element and said fourth lens element along said optical axis, an air gap AG45 between said fourth lens element and said fifth lens element along said optical axis, and a sum of all five air gaps AAG between each lens element from said first lens element to said sixth lens element along the optical axis satisfy a relationship AAG AC ⁢ ⁢ 34 + AC ⁢ ⁢ 45 ≤ 5.6 . 3. The optical imaging lens set of claim 2 , wherein a thickness CT5 of said fifth lens element along said optical axis satisfies a relationship AC ⁢ ⁢ 12 + AC ⁢ ⁢ 56 CT ⁢ ⁢ 5 ≤ 1.50 . 4. The optical imaging lens set of claim 2 , wherein the fifth lens element has negative refractive power. 5. The optical imaging lens set of claim 1 , wherein an air gap AC34 between said third lens element and said fourth lens element along said optical axis, and an air gap AG45 between said fourth lens element satisfy a relationship AC ⁢ ⁢ 12 + AC ⁢ ⁢ 56 AC ⁢ ⁢ 34 + AC ⁢ ⁢ 45 ≤ 2.00 . 6. The optical imaging lens set of claim 5 , wherein a thickness CT6 of said sixth lens element along said optical axis and AC34 satisfy a relationship AC ⁢ ⁢ 34 CT ⁢ ⁢ 6 ≤ 1.00 . 7. The optical imaging lens set of claim 6 , wherein a thickness CT3 of said third lens element along said optical axis satisfies a relationship 6.00 ≤ ALT CT ⁢ ⁢ 3 ≤ 12.00 .
