Abstract

A projection lens for magnifying an image displayed on a cathode-ray tube and projecting the magnified image on a projection screen comprises a first lens having a substantially plano surface opposite to the cathode-ray tube and a concave surface, a second lens which is convex meniscus lens having a concave surface opposite to the concave surface of the first lens, a third lens having a strongest positive refracting power and at one convex surface, and a fourth lens spaced apart by a predetermined distance from the third lens having at least one convex surface. The first to fourth lenses are arranged in the above order from the side of the cathode-ray tube, and the predetermined distance between the third and fourth lenses is large enough to permit interposition of a plano reflecting mirror therebetween.
