A projection display apparatus is described below, which uses a parabolic plano-convex lens module and a spherical biconvex lens to achieve a high uniformity and a high luminance of the display image, and reduces the light-emitting angle to prevent the light from diffusing in the device, thereby reducing the stray light.

Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 3, the projection display apparatus 1 includes a light source plate 10, a parabolic plano-convex lens module 11, a spherical double-convex lens 12, a liquid crystal display module 13 and at least one reflector 14. For convenience and clarity, one mirror 14 is illustrated. The light source plate 10 has a plurality of light sources 100, the light sources 100 being, for example, but not limited to, light emitting diodes. The parabolic plano-convex lens module 11 has a plurality of parabolic plano-convex lenses 110, wherein the planes of all the parabolic plano-convex lenses 110 face the light emitting sides of all the light sources 100, respectively, and the paraboloids of the parabolic plano-convex lenses 110 face the spherical double convex lenses 12. The spherical double convex lens 12 and the lamp source plate 10 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the parabolic plano-convex lens module 11. The liquid crystal display module 13 and the parabolic plano-convex lens module 11 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the spherical double-convex lens 12.
The light emitted from all the light sources 100 sequentially passes through all the parabolic plano-convex lenses 110, the spherical bi-convex lenses 12 and the liquid crystal display module 13 of the parabolic plano-convex lens module 11 to form image light. Since the reflecting mirror 14 is located on the optical path of the image light, the reflecting mirror 14 reflects the image light to a transparent substrate 2, thereby generating a virtual image. The transparent substrate 2 may be a windshield of an automobile, but the invention is not limited thereto. The parabolic plano-convex lens module 11 and the spherical biconvex lens 12 are used to achieve the display image effect with high uniformity and high luminance, and to reduce the light-emitting angle to prevent the light from diffusing in the device, thereby reducing the stray light.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis of the paraboloid of the paraboloidal plano-convex lens 110 may both be paraboloidal curves, and the curvature radius of the horizontal axis is different from that of the vertical axis, so that the paraboloidal plano-convex lens 110 can achieve the light source expansion effect better than that of an axisymmetric lens. For example, the radii of curvature of the horizontal and vertical axes of the paraboloid of the paraboloidal plano-convex lens 110 can be, but are not limited to, 2.5 millimeters (mm) and 4 mm, respectively. The refractive index of the parabolic plano-convex lens 110 can be, but is not limited to, 1.56-1.58. The vertical axis and the horizontal axis of the spherical surface of the spherical double convex lens 12 facing the liquid crystal display module 13 may both be spherical curves, the curvature radii of the vertical axis and the horizontal axis of the spherical surface of the spherical double convex lens 12 facing the liquid crystal display module 13 are different, and the vertical axis and the horizontal axis of the spherical surface of the spherical double convex lens 12 facing the parabolic plano-convex lens module 11 may be spherical curves and straight lines, respectively, so as to achieve the light source expansion effect. The vertical axis and the horizontal axis of the spherical lenticular lens 12 facing the spherical surface of the liquid crystal display module 13 may have a radius of curvature of, but not limited to, 100 mm and 20 mm, respectively, and the vertical axis of the spherical lenticular lens 12 facing the spherical surface of the parabolic plano-convex lens module 11 may have a radius of curvature of, but not limited to, 100 mm. The refractive index of the spherical lenticular lens 12 can be, but is not limited to, 1.56-1.58. Specifically, the light source board 10 may further include a printed circuit board 101, and all the light sources 100 are disposed on the printed circuit board 101. In order to effectively distribute the light sources 100 in the screen, the light sources 100 are designed on the printed circuit board 101 at unequal intervals.
