Embodiment
Below in conjunction with drawings and embodiments the embodiment of the invention is elaborated.
Embodiment one
Fig. 2 a is the structural representation of an embodiment of optical projection system of the present invention, and shown in Fig. 2 a, optical projection system comprises projection light source 210, lens 220, total internal reflection prism 240, light-modulating cell 230, projection lens 250.Projection light source 210 is specially led array, the emergent light of projection light source 210 is adjusted through lens 220 and is entered total internal reflection prism 240, then inciding light-modulating cell 230 modulates, to projection lens 250, finally be projected to view field on the screen through projection lens 250 finally by total reflection lens 240 outgoing.
In addition, the emergent light of 220 pairs of projection light sources 210 of lens plays the effect of adjusting angle, when or projection light source 210 emergent lights less demanding to light utilization efficiency do not need to adjust, does not need to arrange lens 220.Total internal reflection prism 240 is used for the incident light of light-modulating cell 230 is separated with the emergent light light path, and its advantage is that with respect to catoptron can not produce a plurality of pictures affects drop shadow effect.Can certainly directly receive the incident light of projection light source 210 and reflex to projection lens 250 and omission total internal reflection prism 240 with light-modulating cell 230.
In the course of work of optical projection system, projection light source 210 emergent lights are incident to that light-modulating cell 230 surface forms hot spots and by its modulation, projection light source 210 emergent light hot spots are corresponding one by one with each position of hot spot on the light-modulating cell 230, when the corrective action of each position on 230 pairs of hot spots of light-modulating cell was identical, the modulation of light-modulating cell 230 can't change the energy distribution of hot spot.The emergent light of light-modulating cell 230 can project the view field of projection screen behind projection lens 250, position in the view field and the hot spot that incides projection lens 250 are that the position on the hot spot of light-modulating cell 230 outgoing is one to one, so the position in the view field also is that position on the hot spot with projection light source 210 emergent lights is one to one.Since the size restrictions of projection lens 250, the light transmission transmitance N of the each several part of projection lens 250
iIncomplete same: the light transmission transmitance of zone line will be higher than the light transmission transmitance of fringe region, causes brightness that uniform luminance light incides projecting lens 250 rear view fields bright and the edge is dark in the middle of being.But the arbitrary fixed position for projection lens 250, its light transmission transmitance is fixed, the brightness of incident ray of arbitrary fixed position that is projection lens 250 is larger, and the brightness of a certain position that projects view field behind its transmission projection camera lens 250 is larger.Similarly, other optical element between projection light source and projection lens, lens for example, optical tunnels etc. all can impact the propagation of light beam, so that it is different to incide the hot spot each several part transmission effects of this optical element surface.Here, we can regard all optical elements that comprise projection lens 250 as an optical element, the light transmission transmitance of each position of this optical element is different, but each position light transmission rate is fixed value, does not change with the energy distribution to the hot spot of projection light source outgoing.
Therefore on the other hand, the adjustment of light-modulating cell 230 does not change the energy distribution of launching spot, for a certain fixed position B of view field
i, its brightness b
iBe decided by the position A on the hot spot of emergent light of projection light source corresponding to this position 210
iBrightness a
iAnd the overall light of all optical elements between projection lens 250 and the projection light source 210 transmission transmitance N
i, and satisfy b
i=a
i* N
iTherefore, the view field of the Luminance Distribution that obtain expecting, the brightness adjustment of the position on the emergent light hot spot of the corresponding projection light source 210 in position that only need to view field's brightness is lower gets final product.
Fig. 2 b is the method for adjustment schematic flow sheet of the projection light source of optical projection system shown in Fig. 2 a, and shown in Fig. 2 b, present embodiment comprises:
Step S21 obtains the first brightness a in some precalculated positions of the emergent light hot spot of projection light source
i
Here the first brightness a in some precalculated positions of the emergent light hot spot of projection light source
iAcquisition methods can be: utilize the device such as camera that the emergent light hot spot of projection light source is imaged onto on the sensitive film, obtain the first brightness a in some precalculated positions from sensitive film
iCertainly, the acquisition methods of the first brightness of some positions can also be alternate manner, for example utilizes diaphragm with holes to cover other position, and a certain precalculated position of emergent light hot spot is aimed in the hole, utilizes sensitive probe to measure the brightness at this place, hole.
Choosing some precalculated positions can carry out according to concrete needs, and the data that the position of choosing obtains more more can represent the Luminance Distribution of projection light source, and is evenly distributed on the position in the view field, can embody preferably the Luminance Distribution relation of projection.In embodiment of the present invention, the quantity of view field measuring position and distributed areas can be selected as required, not necessarily are confined to quantity and distributed areas that present embodiment is given an example.
Step S22 obtains the second brightness b of some precalculated positions correspondence position in view field of the emergent light hot spot of projection light source
i
The acquisition methods here can be to utilize the device measurings such as illuminometer.The emergent light hot spot of projection light source projects to after the view field, the shape of hot spot does not change, so the correspondence position of some precalculated positions in view field of the emergent light hot spot of projection light source, only need the ratio according to view field and this emergent light hot spot, get final product with this ratio the distance at the spacing between some precalculated positions of this emergent light hot spot and this some precalculated positions and edge being amplified in the view field.Fig. 2 c is the synoptic diagram of projection light source emergent light hot spot, Fig. 2 d is the brightness measurement position view of the view field that projection light source emergent light light hot spot is corresponding among Fig. 2 c, shown in Fig. 2 c, hot spot is the rectangle that length and width are respectively N, M, shown in Fig. 2 d, view field is the rectangle that length and width are respectively 9N, 9M, therefore works as the position A of hot spot

Step S23 obtains the expectation brightness p of some precalculated positions correspondence position in view field of the emergent light hot spot of projection light source
i
Expectation brightness can be set expectation brightness in advance according to different demands in memory storage, so obtaining of the expectation brightness of this step can directly be obtained from memory storage; Certainly, also can obtain by input media.
Need to prove that herein step S21-S23 is without inevitable time order and function order.
Step S24 is by the three brightness c of following formula acquisition in some precalculated positions of the emergent light hot spot of the needed projection light source of view field's acquisition expectation brightness
i:
Wherein i is the integer more than or equal to 1;
The 3rd brightness in the some precalculated positions in this step can calculate according to formula by calculation element.
Step S25 adjusts projection light source, so that the brightness in some precalculated positions of the emergent light hot spot of this projection light source is the 3rd brightness c
i
The 3rd brightness c here
iAdjustment, be to adjust according to the 3rd brightness ratio of some positions, might not adjust to the absolute value that calculates gained.In fact, no matter be some precalculated positions of view field or some precalculated positions of projection light source emergent light hot spot, the brightness value of measurement is all relevant with the size of measurement mechanism and measurement area.Therefore, the single value of measurement data is too large meaning not, and what need in the reality is a data sequence, and the ratio between the different pieces of information is just meaningful.
For convenience of calculation, preferably, above-mentioned computation process is to the position B of view field

iBe made as 1, other parameter is converted accordingly, can simplify calculating.
The adjustment mode of projection light source 210 can be to select a new light source to displace original projection light source.For example design a new light source, the brightness that makes some precalculated positions of this light source emergent light hot spot is the 3rd brightness c
i, and this light source is substituted into the position of primary source.
Situation about being formed by a plurality of light-emitting components for projection light source, the adjustment mode of projection light source 210 also can be that the power of the corresponding light-emitting component in some precalculated positions of projection light source emergent light hot spot is adjusted, so that the brightness in some precalculated positions of projection light source emergent light hot spot is the 3rd brightness c
i
The adjustment mode of projection light source 210 can also be to increase the optical element that can change projection light source 210 emergent light hot spot Luminance Distribution in projection light source 210, this optical element and projection light source 210 form new projection light source, and this situation will further specify in embodiment two.
The below describes for evenly being distributed as example with the Luminance Distribution of view field's expectation, at this moment the diverse location B of view field

9, we can carry out same analysis to it, and its situation also is similar, namely needs only
Get final product, the Luminance Distribution of the hot spot of required projection light source emergent light can calculate according to the brightness of the correspondence position of the hot spot of the desired projection brightness that reaches of view field and projection light source 210 emergent lights, realizes obtaining the equally distributed view field of brightness thereby adjust projection light source 210.The adjustment here is that the brightness of the position on the hot spot of emergent light on the corresponding projection light source 210 in relative projection light source 210 position that view field's brightness is lower is adjusted, and the ratio that the ratio that improves its brightness and raising is higher than the higher position of brightness or reduces its brightness and reduction is lower than the higher position of brightness.
What deserves to be explained is, in the present embodiment, for view field choose have a few, it is identical that its brightness expectation value all is set to, namely view field is that uniform luminance distributes.In other embodiment of the present invention, for view field choose have a few, it is incomplete same that its brightness expectation value can be set to, and can obtain the image of other Luminance Distribution form, is applied to some specific occasions.
The some positions that utilize the emergent light hot spot in the present embodiment are the first brightness A
iProjection light source 210 as reference light source, measured the Luminance Distribution of the view field of projection light source 210 this moment, according to this Luminance Distribution, adjust the energy distribution of the outgoing hot spot of projection light source, obtain the view field of the Luminance Distribution of expectation.
Optical projection system in the present embodiment is adjusted projection light source by said method and has been improved the brightness degree of uniformity of view field, and with respect to optical projection system of the prior art, omit the elements such as optical tunnel and lens, realized compact structure, can use hand-held projector equipment.
In fact, consider various uncertain factors, for example projection optical system is not linear for the response of light-source brightness, one-shot measurement obtains the view field that the Luminance Distribution of hot spot of the emergent light of secondary light source not necessarily can realize desired Luminance Distribution, preferably, above-mentioned computation process can also be repeatedly, and finally obtain the view field of desirable Luminance Distribution.
In the present embodiment, take the Luminance Distribution of the view field of expectation as uniform Luminance Distribution as example, its expectation brightness p

In the present embodiment, projection light source is led array, so step S25 can comprise among Fig. 2 b: adjust the brightness of LED corresponding with some precalculated positions in the led array, so that the brightness of LED that should correspondence is the 3rd brightness c
iClearly, the Luminance Distribution of this led light source emergent light hot spot is adjusted easily, for example gets final product by changing corresponding voltage or the electric current of LED.

Fig. 3 b is the method for adjustment schematic flow sheet of the projection light source of optical projection system shown in Fig. 3 a, shown in Fig. 3 b, compare with the method for adjustment of projection light source shown in Fig. 2 b, the step S31 in this enforcement~S34 is with the step S21 shown in Fig. 2 b~S24 is identical, and difference is:
Step S25 among Fig. 2 b is specially the step S35 among Fig. 3 b in the present embodiment: apparatus for shaping 314 is set, and the brightness adjustment that is used for the precalculated position of the emergent light hot spot of projection light source is described the 3rd brightness c
i, the emergent light after this projection light source adjustment is incident to light-modulating cell.
Particularly, projection light source 310a shown in Fig. 3 a is former projection light source, and shown in Fig. 3 c, projection light source 310b is the light source after adjusting, and projection light source 310b is that the emergent light light path at former projection light source 310a is provided with apparatus for shaping 314.With respect to directly utilizing new light sources to displace projection light source 310a, adjust projection light source 310a by increasing apparatus for shaping 314, easier realization can also take full advantage of the assembly of projection light source 310a, saves cost.
The apparatus for shaping here is specially free-form surface lens, and it can become required Illumination Distribution with the spot shaping of projection light source 310a outgoing.Shaping lens can utilize professional optical design software to carry out designing mould, and by method manufacturings such as injection mouldings.In other embodiment of the present invention, apparatus for shaping 314 can also be the device that DOE (Diffractive optical element, diffraction optical element) etc. has shaping operation.
Particularly, in the present embodiment, projection light source 310a comprises excitation source 311, Wavelength converter 312, dodging device 313.Wavelength converter 312 receives the emergent light of excitation sources 311 and it at least part ofly is converted to the Stimulated Light outgoing, projection light source 310b after the adjustment comprises projection light source 310a and apparatus for shaping 314, and this apparatus for shaping 314 is arranged on the emitting light path of projection light source 310a.Wavelength converter 312 is provided with material for transformation of wave length, and material for transformation of wave length is specially fluorescent powder, but in other embodiment of the present invention, may be the material that quantum dot, fluorescent dye etc. have wavelength conversion capability also, is not limited to fluorescent powder.In addition, in other embodiment of the present invention, the projection light source 310b after projection light source 310a and the adjustment can also be other light source type, such as led light source, LASER Light Source etc.
In other embodiment of the present invention, excitation source 311 and Wavelength converter 312 can replace with other light source, for example led light source.
Also comprise dodging device 313 among the projection light source 310a in the present embodiment, Stimulated Light is the uniform hot spot of outgoing Illumination Distribution behind dodging device 313.Dodging device 313 in the present embodiment is optical tunnel, and this optical tunnel also can replace with other device, such as fly's-eye lens etc., as long as guarantee its emergent light hot spot Illumination Distribution evenly.

Fig. 3 d is another structural representation of projection light source after the adjustment of optical projection system shown in Fig. 3 a, and shown in Fig. 3 d, different from Fig. 3 c is that among the projection light source 310c, optical tunnel 313 is between excitation source 311 and Wavelength converter 312.In existing optical projection system, the hot spot that excitation source is incident on the fluorescent powder color wheel is irregular shape, and optical power density is also inhomogeneous in the hot spot scope.Optical tunnel can make the shape of hot spot become the shape identical with DMD modulation face, the rectangle of 4: 3 or 16: 9 for example, this has farthest reduced the light losing that is incident in the DMD outside so that this hot spot can have good coupling with its modulation face after imaging in the DMD surface; Optical tunnel can make the interior light of hot spot of optical tunnel outlet distribute and become even simultaneously, and this has guaranteed the image homogeneity on projection and the screen.Yet, use the problem of optical tunnel to be, want to guarantee coupling efficiency, be incident in the inevitable entrance less than optical tunnel of size of the hot spot of optical tunnel entrance, this is just so that excitation source is incident in the hot spot of fluorescent powder color wheel must control very littlely, and then so that the power density of hot spot increase.This has caused the decrease in efficiency of fluorescent powder.And when optical tunnel 313 is positioned over excitation source 311 with Wavelength converter 312, this optical tunnel 313 can receive and excite the direct outgoing of hot spot and DMD form fit and uniform hot spot to Wavelength converter, the variation of the shape of the hot spot of outgoing and Luminance Distribution is substantially little after the material for transformation of wave length on the Wavelength converter excites, also can not cause aforementioned optical tunnel to be positioned over the problem that the Wavelength converter subsequent optical path occurs, be a kind of preferred structure therefore.
In the present embodiment, this apparatus for shaping is positioned on the emitting light path of former light-emitting device.In other embodiments, apparatus for shaping also can be on the light path between excitation source 311 and the Wavelength converter 312, because excitation source 311 is with respect to Wavelength converter 312 points of proximity light source more, therefore apparatus for shaping is easier regulates, in addition, in this structure, do not need again the dodging devices such as optical tunnel are being set in follow-up light path.
