(5) embodiment
Fig. 2 is one embodiment of the invention, shows the floor map of an optical prism group 10.As shown in Figure 2, optical prism group 10 is used for digital light processing (digital light processing; DLP) optical projection system, after arranging in pairs or groups, can produce image with three digital optical processing panels (DLP panel) 34,36 and 38, digital light is handled on the panel 34,36 and 38 and is formed with a large amount of micro-reflectors, produce by control minute surface angle of inclination and to make light penetration optical projection system (bright attitude) or not penetrate two kinds of variations of optical projection system (dark attitude), three digital optical processing panels 34,36 and 38 are operated the wherein a kind of of red (R), green (G), blue (B) three kinds of coloured light respectively.
Optical prism group 10 and each digital light are handled 34,36 and 38 of panels and are provided with a total internal reflection prism 12,14 and 16, handling panel 34,36 and 38 to reflex to optical prism group 10 from ruddiness, green glow and the corresponding digital light of blue light guiding of different directions.At last, optical prism group 10 can be sent into a projecting lens 18 and the generation image after each the road coloured light combination after digital light is handled panel 34,36 and 38 processing.
The following design that optical prism group 10 is described with reference to Fig. 3.As shown in Figure 3, optical prism group 10 of the present invention is by an isosceles triangular prism (isosceles triangular prism) 26 and prism blocks (prismblock) 28,30 and 32 formations.Prism blocks 28 and 30 can be made of quadrangular (quadrangular prism), and prism blocks 32 can be made of a pentagonal prism (pentagonal prism).
Fig. 4 is for showing the member stereographic map of above-mentioned isosceles triangular prism (a), quadrangular (b), with its three-dimensional kenel of prism component of explanation the present invention employing.As shown in Figure 4, " isosceles triangular prism " of the present invention is to be defined as the surface level that has pair of parallel and be made of isosceles triangle, reach three the vertical sides vertical and define the three-dimensional kenel that forms, so have the vertical side of two isometric L and identical base angle β with this surface level.In like manner in " quadrangular " kenel that occurs herein also be similarly surface level with pair of parallel and only the number of variations of vertical side be four, the rest may be inferred by analogy.Moreover light is the vertical side turnover via each prism, and for for the purpose of the cooperation plan view from above that icon adopted, the vertical side of each prism component is referred to as with " boundary surface (boundingsurface) " without exception.
Referring again to Fig. 3, the angle β that the present invention at first designs 26 two isometric boundary surface 26a of isosceles triangular prism and 26b and bottom surface 26c is restricted to greater than 30 degree and less than 45 scopes of spending, and for example can adopt 40 degree.One boundary surface 28a of prism blocks 28 is in abutting connection with the boundary surface 26a of isosceles triangular prism, and a boundary surface 28b adjacent with boundary surface 28a and the boundary surface 26b of isosceles triangular prism are located at same plane.
According to present embodiment, prism blocks 30 is identical shaped and big or small quadrangular with prism blocks 28, and also be connected to isosceles triangular prism 26 in the same manner, that is a boundary surface 30a of prism blocks 30 is in abutting connection with the boundary surface 26b of isosceles triangular prism, and the boundary surface 26a of adjacent boundary surface 30b and isosceles triangular prism is located at same plane.
Two boundary surface 32a and 32b of prism blocks 32 are respectively with the boundary surface 28b of prism blocks 28 and the boundary surface 30b adjacency of prism blocks 30.The boundary surface that prism blocks 28,30 and 32 is handled panel towards digital light all with this digital light treated side board plane keeping parallelism.
Under this prism combo architectures, between boundary surface 26a and 28a, and boundary surface 30b and boundary surface 32b between Jie establish the coating of a continuous level to form a double-colored optical filtering 22.Simultaneously, between boundary surface 26b and 30a, and boundary surface 28b and 32a between be situated between and establish the coating of another continuous level to form another double-colored optical filtering 24.Double-colored optical filtering the 22, the 24th produces by plating the interference thin film that can leach the specific color frequency band, and its generation type in the optical prism group does not limit, after for example two adjacent edge interfaces of isosceles triangular prism, first, second and third each prism component of prism blocks can being formed the interference thin film that leaches ruddiness and blue light respectively, again with each prism component with above-mentioned prism combo architectures combination, can form the double-colored optical filtering continuous level of two intersections.
Because of the angle of 26 two isometric boundary surface 26a of isosceles triangular prism and 26b and bottom surface 26c is β, so double-colored optical filtering 22 is 2 β with 24 liang of folded acute angles of continuous level of double-colored optical filtering, and the angular range of this acute angle be to spend greater than 60 degree and less than 90.
The following angle configurations example that optical prism group 10 of the present invention is described referring again to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3.Because of prism blocks of the present invention must configuration make digital light handle panel 34,36 and 38 light reflected, all vertically enter the boundary surface of prism group 10 as shown in Figure 2, and after the palpus configuration made prism group 10 close light, the light W after the combination must be by the vertical outgoing of isosceles triangular prism 26 bottom surface 26c.So as shown in Figure 3, when the ∠ ABO=β of the base angle of isosceles triangular prism 26, the folded acute angle ∠ of the two continuous levels BOD=2 β of double-colored optical filtering 22 and double-colored optical filtering 24, and when ∠ BCD is taken as preferable pi/2 in order to boundary surface and digital light treated side board plane keeping parallelism, then ∠ CBO=(π-3 β) and ∠ CDO=(π+β/2).
Fig. 5 shows the photoreduction process that closes of optical prism group 10 of the present invention.As illustrated in Fig. 5, through three digital optical processing panels handle and ruddiness (R), blue light (B) and the green glow (G) of reflection respectively by left side, right side and the downside vertical incidence of optical prism group 10 to prism blocks 28,30 and 32 and enter in the optical prism group 10.According to present embodiment, because of double-colored optical filtering 22 is to be designed to leach and reflect blue and transmit red light and green glow, double-colored optical filtering 24 can leach and reflect red and transmit green and blue light, so ruddiness (R) via prism blocks 28 1 boundary surface vertical incidence after, penetrable double-colored optical filtering 22 and on double-colored optical filtering 24 reflection again by the vertical outgoing of bottom surface 26c of isosceles triangular prism 26; Blue light (B) via prism blocks 30 1 boundary surface vertical incidence after, penetrable double-colored optical filtering 24 and on double-colored optical filtering 22 reflection again by the vertical outgoing of bottom surface 26c of isosceles triangular prism 26; Green glow (G) via prism blocks 32 1 boundary surface vertical incidence after, penetrate double-colored optical filtering 24 and double-colored optical filtering 22 simultaneously again by the vertical outgoing of bottom surface 26c of isosceles triangular prism 26.So optical prism group 10 is promptly finished the process of combine red (R), blue light (B) and green glow (G).
According to design of the present invention, it uses an isosceles triangular prism to extend the double-colored optical filtering plane that design two intersects for the basis, again with the combination of corresponding prism blocks, can reach the easy prism array mode of utilization so on the one hand and can guarantee each coloured light light path unanimity and each coloured light can vertical incidence and the purpose of outgoing prism group 10 in optical prism group 10.
On the other hand, can adjust the angle on two double-colored optical filtering planes by the base angle size of control isosceles triangular prism, and then adjust the incident angle of coloured light on double-colored optical filtering.Therefore, the present invention is limited in the base angle β of isosceles triangular prism greater than in 30 degree and the scope less than 45 degree, and can dwindle the folded acute angle in two double-colored optical filtering planes, oblique incidence to the coloured light of double-colored optical filtering is incident on the double-colored optical filtering with less angle, and can avoid the polarization spectrum of double-colored optical filtering to drift about, significantly improve the light utilization ratio, its colour purity of image and the brightness of closing behind the light are greatly improved.
Fig. 6 is example with ruddiness, shows via the ruddiness polarized light spectrogram after the double-colored optical filtering reflection, with the influence of explanation incident angle size to polarization spectrum.The top of Fig. 6 shows that existing design ruddiness is incident to the polarized light spectrogram of double-colored optical filtering with miter angle, and the below then be by the present invention's design, and the ruddiness incident angle is contracted to for example 40 polarized light spectrograms of spending.Compare both as can be known, when incident angle is changed to 45 of last figure and is spent by 40 degree of figure below, the spectral position of P polarized light is significantly to right-hand drift, and reflectivity significantly reduces, so greatly lower because of the colourity and the brightness that can make ruddiness that declines to a great extent of the utilization ratio of P polarized light, influence close color behind the light to saturation degree when.
Moreover as shown in Figure 5, each coloured light zone of transmission not can be coated with light absorbing material 42 on optical prism group 10 boundary surfaces, to absorb the parasitic light (stray light) in the optical prism group 10.
The above only is exemplary, but not is restricted.Any spirit of the present invention and category of not breaking away from, and to the modification or the change of its equivalence of carrying out, all should be contained in the accompanying Claim scope.
