Description

  The present invention relates to a projection-side optical system for a projector and a projector equipped with the projection-side optical system.

  2. Description of the Related Art Today, data projectors that project an image displayed on a personal computer screen, an image of a video signal, an image based on image data stored in a memory card or the like onto a screen are widely used.

  In many cases, this data projector uses a small high-intensity light source such as a metal highland lamp or an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp, and the light emitted from the light source is converted into light of three primary colors by a color filter. It is structured to irradiate a display element called DMD (Digital Micro Device) and project the transmitted light or reflected light of the display element onto a screen through a lens group which is a projection side optical system having a zoom function. Yes.

  This data projector incorporates a plurality of heat sources such as a light source, a light source side optical system, a power supply circuit, and a display element, and the light source is heated to nearly 1000 degrees. For this reason, a mechanism for cooling the light source device, the power supply circuit, and the like, which are heat sources by providing an air cooling fan, is incorporated.

  As such a cooling mechanism, a cooling air flow path is formed so as to distinguish a light source device that has a particularly high temperature and a large amount of heat generation from other heat generation sources, and cooling air that cools an optical system at a temperature lower than that of the light source device. There has been proposed one that cools a light source and cools it with cooling air in which a power source unit or the like has a flow path different from that of the light source.

  For example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-173020 (Patent Document 1), a plurality of cooling fans are used to cool a heat source of each partition flow path by providing a substrate and partition walls for creating an air flow in a housing. Air inside the housing is exchanged with outside air through the exhaust holes and intake holes.

  The light source is heated from several hundred degrees to nearly 1000 degrees, and a heat absorption filter is used for the light source device. The lens of the optical system unit that transmits the light bundle from the light source device is Since the temperature rises by being warmed by the light beam, the image may fluctuate or the focus may be shifted. Therefore, cooling is performed by the outside air taken into the projector housing.

  Further, the light source side optical system and the projection side optical system are made to be L-shaped by crossing the optical axis of the light source side optical system and the optical axis of the projection side optical system so that the exhaust heat from the light source is not transmitted to the projection side optical system. Many of them are arranged to increase the distance between the light source and the projection-side optical system (for example, Patent Document 2).

  Further, in JP-A-2001-174920 (Patent Document 2), an intake fan is disposed in the vicinity of the projection port, an exhaust fan is disposed in the vicinity of the light source device, and an air flow path is formed between them. Thus, there has been proposed a cooling mechanism for a projection apparatus in which various optical systems are cooled with low-temperature air sucked from an intake fan and then the light source device is cooled.

Further, in today's photographing optical system, a bonded lens is used as a high-performance lens that is small and has little aberration (for example, Patent Document 3).
This bonded lens has a lens performance of an aspherical lens by bonding an optical resin lens to an optical glass lens.

  The first partition wall 123, the second partition wall 124, and the third partition wall 125 use heat insulating members such as resin as in the optical system unit 77. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the high heat generated by the light source device 63 in the exhaust side space 122 from leaking to the outside.

  Next, the flow of air in the projector 10 will be described. As shown in FIG. 5, the back plate 13 is provided with an intake hole 18 in the rear portion of the place where the display element 51 is located, and air flows between the back plate 13 and the optical system unit 77 having the display element 51. A passage is formed so that outside air sucked from the intake holes 18 provided in the back plate 13 and the intake holes 18 provided behind the left plate 15 flows along the back plate 13 in the direction of the blower 110.

  A display element heat radiating plate 53 is arranged behind the display element. The control circuit board 103 serves as two control boards between the two control circuit boards 103 or between the two control circuit boards 103. Above or below, air flowing along the control circuit board 103 is sucked into the suction port 111 of the blower 110.

  Therefore, when the fan of the blower 110 is rotated, the blower 110 serving as a cooling fan sucks the surrounding air from the suction port 111 and sucks the air around the blower 110 inside the projector 10, so that the side plate of the casing of the projector 10 The outside air can be sucked into the projector 10 through a large number of intake holes 18 provided in the projector 10.

  A part of the outside air sucked from the intake holes 18 provided in the left side plate 15 and the back plate 13 forms an air flow path between the back plate 13 and the optical system unit 77 so as to cool the display element heat radiating plate 53. The air flows along the control circuit board 103 and is sucked into the suction port 111 of the blower 110 through the upper and lower surfaces of the control circuit board 103 and the space between the control circuit boards 103. The other outside air sucked from the suction hole 18 of the left side plate 15 cools the optical system unit 77.

  In addition, some of the outside air sucked into the projector 10 from the air intake hole 18 of the right side plate 14 passes through the periphery of the lamp power circuit block 101 and the like, reaches the control circuit board 103 while cooling the power circuit board 102, and is controlled. The air flows along the circuit board 103 and is sucked into the suction port 111 of the blower 110. The remaining sucked outside air flows along the first partition wall 121 and is sucked into the suction port 111 of the blower 110.

  A part of the exhaust from the blower 110 blown into the exhaust side space 122 flows along the color wheel 71, and most of the exhaust flows around the light source device 63 that has become hot. In addition, a part of the air flowing around the light source device 63 flows from the opening provided in the reflector 65 so as to pass through the inside of the reflector 65, and the other part is in the vicinity of the first reflecting mirror 72, the color wheel 71, and the like. Then, each part of the light source unit is cooled together with the light source device 63.

  In this way, the high-temperature air after cooling the light source device 63 and the color wheel 71 in the exhaust-side space chamber 122 spreads throughout the front plate 12 and is discharged from the exhaust holes 17 provided in the front plate 12. . Since the louver 20 is attached to the exhaust hole 17, it is possible to block the internal light so as not to leak to the outside, and to reduce the exhaust temperature discharged to the outside. Since the louver 20 is attached obliquely toward the side, it is possible to prevent high-temperature exhaust from being discharged in the direction of the projection-side optical system 90.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the air flow in the vicinity of the optical system unit 77 is a part of the air sucked from the suction hole 18 of the left side plate 15 between the optical system unit 77 and the bottom plate 16. And flows into the gap 128 between the illumination side block 78 and the projection side block 80 to prevent the high temperature heat of the illumination side block 78 from being transmitted to the projection side block 80. The air flowing into the gap 128 flows into the intake side space chamber 121 in the housing through the cutout 129, and further sucked into the suction port 111 of the blower 110 and exhausted into the exhaust side space chamber 122.

  According to the present embodiment, since the gap 128 serving as an air flow path is formed between the illumination side block 78 and the projection side block 80 constituting the optical system unit 77, the heat of the illumination side block 78 is transferred to the projection side block 80. The projection side block 80 becomes hot due to the heat of the illumination side block 78, and it is possible to prevent the projection image from defocusing and fluctuations in the projection image. By forming the above, the cooling effect of the optical system unit 77 can be enhanced.

  Then, fresh air from the outside taken in from the intake hole 18 of the left side plate 15 is caused to flow around the projection side optical system 90 of the projection side block 80, the lens barrel of the projection side optical system 90 is cooled, and the heat conduction mirror The temperature rise of the bonding lens 155 can be reduced by the tube portion 151, and the entire projector 10 capable of projecting a high-definition image can be reduced in size by using the bonding lens 155 as a small optical unit 77. It can be done easily.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be freely changed and improved without departing from the gist of the invention. The cooling fan is not limited to the sirocco fan type blower 110.
