Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of photoelectric technology, and in particular, to a projection light source and a projection device.

Background

With the development of photoelectric technology, the requirements for miniaturization of projection light sources in projection devices are increasing.

In the related art, as shown in fig. 1, a projection light source includes: laser 001, dichroic mirror 002, first collimating lens group 003, fluorescent wheel 004, light pipe 005, and relay loop system including second collimating lens group 006, first reflecting mirror 007, first collimating lens 008, second reflecting mirror 009, second collimating lens 010, third reflecting mirror 011, and third collimating lens 012. The dichroic mirror 002 and the fluorescent wheel 004 are sequentially arranged on the light emitting side of the laser 001 along the light emitting direction (such as x direction) of the laser 001, and the arrangement direction (such as y direction) of the light guide 005 and the dichroic mirror 002 is perpendicular to the light emitting direction of the laser 001. The dichroic mirror 002 is for transmitting blue light and reflecting red and green light. The laser 001 may emit blue laser light to the dichroic mirror 002, and the blue laser light may pass through the dichroic mirror 002 to be emitted to the first collimating lens group 003, and may then pass through the first collimating lens group 003 to be emitted to the fluorescent wheel 004. The phosphor wheel 004 includes a phosphor region and a transmissive region, the phosphor wheel 004 being rotatable about a rotational axis parallel to the light exit direction, the blue laser light being directed to different regions of the phosphor wheel 004 during rotation of the phosphor wheel 004. When the blue laser light is directed to the transmission region of the fluorescent wheel 004, the blue laser light is directed to the relay loop system through the transmission region, and is transmitted to the light pipe 005 through the relay loop system. When the blue laser light is directed to the fluorescence region of the fluorescence wheel 004, the excitation fluorescence region emits red light and green light, which are directed to the dichroic mirror 002 through the first collimating lens group 003, and reflected by the dichroic mirror 002 to the light pipe 005. The light pipe 005 can receive red light, green light and blue laser, and then the tri-primary light received by the light pipe 005 can be emitted to the illumination system to finally achieve the surface modulation of the light valve, and the tri-primary light enters the projection lens to be projected and imaged after being modulated by the light valve.

However, in the research, the skilled person finds that, since the tri-primary color light emitted from the light source needs to pass through a plurality of optical lenses in the light path, the light beam transmitted by the plurality of lenses has a problem of poor matching degree between the spot shape and the light incident surface of the light guide when entering the light guide, and thus the light receiving efficiency of the light guide is low, and finally the light efficiency of the optical system is affected.

Detailed Description

For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a projection light source according to the related art. As shown in fig. 1, the projection light source includes: laser 001, dichroic mirror 002, first collimating lens group 003, fluorescent wheel 004, relay loop system, and light pipe 005. The dichroic mirror 002, the first collimating lens group 003, and the fluorescent wheel 004 are located on the light-emitting side of the laser 001, and are sequentially arranged along the light-emitting direction of the laser 001. The relay loop system includes: a second collimating lens group 006, a first reflecting mirror 007, a first collimating lens 008, a second reflecting mirror 009, a second collimating lens 010, a third reflecting mirror 011, and a third collimating lens 012. Wherein, the second collimating lens group 006 and the first reflecting mirror 007 are located at one side of the fluorescent wheel 004 away from the laser 001 and are sequentially arranged along the light emitting direction (e.g. y direction in fig. 1) of the laser 001. The first reflecting mirror plate 007, the first collimating lens 008, and the second reflecting mirror plate 009 are sequentially arranged in the opposite direction of the target direction (e.g., the x direction in fig. 1) perpendicular to the light emitting direction of the laser 001. The second reflection mirror 009, the second collimating lens 010, and the third reflection mirror 011 are sequentially arranged along the opposite direction of the light emitting direction of the laser 001. The third reflection mirror 011, the third collimator lens 012, the dichroic mirror 002, and the light pipe 005 are arranged in this order in the target direction, and the dichroic mirror 002 is inclined toward the light pipe 005. The light pipe 005 is positioned at the light outlet of the projection light source.

The laser 001 can emit blue laser light, and the dichroic mirror 002 can transmit blue light. The blue laser light emitted from the laser 001 may be directed to the fluorescent wheel 004 through the dichroic mirror 002 and the first collimating lens group 003. The phosphor wheel 004 includes a phosphor region having a phosphor material that can fluoresce (e.g., red and green) upon irradiation with blue laser light and a transmissive region (not shown in fig. 1). The phosphor wheel 004 can rotate around a rotation axis parallel to the light emitting direction of the laser 001, and blue laser light can be emitted to different regions of the phosphor wheel 004 when the phosphor wheel 004 rotates. When the blue laser light is directed to the transmission region of the fluorescent wheel 004, the blue laser light may pass through the transmission region and the second collimating lens group 006 to be directed to the first reflecting mirror plate 007, and then reflected by the first reflecting mirror plate 007 to pass through the first collimating lens 008 to be directed to the second reflecting mirror plate 009. The blue laser light may then be reflected by the second mirror 009 to pass through the second collimating lens 010 to the third reflecting lens 011, and reflected by the third reflecting lens 011 to pass through the third collimating lens 012 and the dichroic mirror 002 to the light pipe 005. As the fluorescent wheel 004 rotates, when the blue laser light emitted from the laser 001 is directed to the fluorescent region of the fluorescent wheel 004, the blue laser light can excite the fluorescent material of the fluorescent region to emit fluorescence to the dichroic mirror 002. The dichroic mirror 002 may also reflect red and green light, so the fluorescence may be reflected again on the dichroic mirror 002 to be directed to the light pipe 005. In this way, the light pipe 005 can receive fluorescent light and blue laser light, the fluorescent light and the blue laser light can be mixed under the action of the light pipe 005, and the mixed light can be used for projection of the projection device by the convergent lens.

However, in the related art, since the three primary color light emitted from the light source needs to pass through a plurality of optical lenses in the light path, the light beam transmitted through the plurality of lenses has a problem of poor matching degree between the light spot shape and the light incident surface of the light guide tube when entering the light guide tube, and thus the light receiving efficiency of the light guide tube is low, and finally the light efficiency of the optical system is affected. In addition, in the related art, a diffusion sheet is generally used for homogenizing diffusion, and more regular round light spots are easily formed after passing through the diffusion sheet, which is also not matched with the rectangular light incident surface of the light guide tube, so that the light receiving efficiency is reduced.

The following embodiments of the present application provide a projection light source, which can improve the light receiving efficiency of a light pipe, and has high chromaticity uniformity of a tricolor combined light spot, so as to be beneficial to displaying a projection picture of a projection device.

Fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a projection light source according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the projection light source 10 may include:

A laser 100, a microlens array 101, a light converging lens 102, a converging lens 105 and a fluorescent wheel 103.

The laser 100 is configured to emit a plurality of laser beams, which are collimated light beams. Because the laser emitted by the light emitting chip has different divergence angles on the fast axis and the slow axis, and the fast axis diverges fast, a laser spot emitted from the light emitting chip presents an ellipse, and a laser beam emitted from the laser is usually collimated before entering a rear light path, and can propagate in approximately parallel light, so that the size of the spot is smaller, the optical utilization rate is also improved, but due to different divergence characteristics of the fast axis and the slow axis, when the light is transmitted after collimation, the far field characteristic of the slow axis appears to have a divergence angle larger than the fast axis direction, and the size of the spot gradually exceeds the fast axis.

In this example, the multiple laser beams emitted by the laser device are incident to the microlens array 101, where the microlens array 101 includes multiple microlenses arranged in an array, and the microlens array is used to increase the divergence angles of the multiple laser beams incident thereon in the directions of the respective fast axis and slow axis, specifically, each microlens diverges the laser beams incident thereon to different extents along one direction and the other direction on the two-dimensional shape of the microlens, so that the laser beams have different divergence angles in different dimension directions after passing through the microlens array, where the different dimension directions may use the directions of the fast axis and the slow axis of the laser beams themselves as references, and may also use the directions on the two-dimensional shape of the microlens as references.

The light converging lens 102 includes a transmissive region and a reflective region, wherein a plurality of laser beams are incident on the fluorescent wheel 103 after passing through the transmissive region. The fluorescent wheel 103 includes a light conversion region and a laser guide region on which a light reflection part is provided, and the fluorescent wheel 103 is not provided with a light transmission region. The light conversion region may be a fluorescent region and the laser guide region may be a reflective region. The light conversion region may be excited to emit fluorescence under irradiation of laser light, and the laser light guiding region may diffuse the incident laser light and reflect the incident laser light.

When a plurality of laser lights are directed to the light conversion region, the light conversion region is excited to emit fluorescence, and the fluorescence is reflected by the fluorescent wheel 103 toward at least the reflection region of the light combining lens 102.

When the laser beams are directed to the laser guiding region, the laser guiding region directs the laser beams to the reflecting region, the reflecting region reflects the incident laser beams and fluorescence light to the light inlet of the light guide, the light inlet of the light guide is rectangular in shape, and in the above example, the ratio of the divergence angles of the laser beams passing through the microlens array 101 in the fast axis and slow axis directions is directly related to the ratio of the long side and the short side of the rectangle at the light inlet of the light guide. Therefore, the angle information of the laser beam is changed after passing through the micro lens array, different divergence angles are formed in different directions, and the ratio of the divergence angles in different directions is positively related to the ratio of the long side and the short side of the rectangle at the light inlet of the light guide pipe, so that when the light beam passes through the optical system, the angle is imaged on the light guide pipe, the angle imaging can be better matched with the shape of the light inlet of the light guide pipe, the light receiving efficiency of the light guide pipe is improved, and meanwhile, the phenomenon that the aperture boundary is formed on the light spot which is received and the chromaticity is uneven due to poor matching relation between the incident light spot and the shape of the light inlet of the light guide pipe can be avoided.

In one implementation, referring again to fig. 2, the light-converging lens 102 includes a plurality of transmissive regions and a plurality of reflective regions, which may be alternately arranged one by one. If the light combining lens 102 includes a first transmission region 1021a, a second transmission region 1021b, a first reflection region 1022a and a second reflection region 1022b, the first reflection region 1022a, the first transmission region 1021a, the second reflection region 1022b and the second transmission region 1021b may be sequentially arranged along the extending direction of the light combining lens.

The projection light source further includes a condensing lens 105 disposed on the front surface of the fluorescent wheel 103 for condensing the incident light beam so that the light beam is incident on the surface of the fluorescent wheel 103 as a condensed spot.

The laser 100, the light converging lens 102, the converging lens 105, and the fluorescent wheel 103 may be sequentially arranged in an auxiliary direction (e.g., y-direction in fig. 2). The laser 100 may emit a plurality of laser lights, which are respectively directed to a plurality of transmission regions in the combiner lens 102, each of which may transmit the incident laser light to the converging lens 105. The spots formed by any two of the plurality of lasers on the converging lens 105 are asymmetric about the optical axis h of the converging lens 105. Alternatively, the plurality of lasers does not pass through the optical axis of the converging lens 105.

Illustratively, the plurality of laser beams emitted by the laser 100 includes a first laser beam S2 and a second laser beam S1. The first laser beams S2 may be directed to the first transmissive regions 1021a, respectively, and directed to the condensing lens 105 through the first transmissive regions 1021 a; the second laser beam S1 is directed to the second transmission region 1021b, and is directed to the condensing lens 105 through the second transmission region 1021 b. The spot formed by the first laser beam S2 on the condensing lens 105 and the spot formed by the second laser beam S1 on the condensing lens 105 are asymmetric with respect to the optical axis h of the condensing lens 105. In other words, the mirror position on the converging lens 105 where the first laser beam S2 is irradiated and the mirror position on the converging lens 105 where the second laser beam S1 is irradiated are asymmetric with respect to the optical axis h of the converging lens 105. The first laser beam S2 is closer to the optical axis h than the second laser beam S1 as in fig. 2. Alternatively, there is no position symmetrical about the optical axis h among the spot of the first laser beam S2 formed on the condensing lens 105 and the spot of the second laser beam S1 formed on the condensing lens 105.

The converging lens 105 may converge the incident laser light toward the fluorescent wheel 103. The fluorescent wheel 103 is rotatable about the rotation axis Z, and different regions of the fluorescent wheel 103 are irradiated with the converged laser light (i.e., the laser light emitted from the converging lens 105) during rotation of the fluorescent wheel 103. When the converged laser light is directed to the light conversion region of the fluorescent wheel 103, the light conversion region is excited to emit fluorescent light having a color different from that of the laser light incident on the fluorescent wheel 103. The fluorescence may be directed through the converging lens 105 to the converging lens 102, such as to a reflective region in the converging lens 102. When the converged laser light is directed to the laser light guiding region in the fluorescent wheel 103, the laser light may be reflected by a light reflecting portion provided on the laser light guiding region, and the reflected laser light is directed to the light converging lens 102, such as to the reflecting region of the light converging lens 102, through the converging lens 105 again. The reflective region of the combiner lens 102 may reflect light directed to the reflective region by the converging lens 105 in a target direction (e.g., the x-direction in fig. 2); that is, the reflection region may reflect both the laser light and the fluorescent light emitted from the condensing lens 105 toward the reflection region in the target direction to achieve a light mixing of the laser light and the fluorescent light.

In an example, as shown in fig. 2, the projection light source further includes a condensing lens 104 disposed in the optical path in front of the light guide 106, where the condensing lens 104 receives the light beam reflected by the light combining lens 102, and the light beam is incident on the light guide 106 after being angle-compressed, and since the condensing lens 104 is a symmetric circular lens, the degree of angle change for each direction of the light spot is relatively uniform, for example, the angle change is about 3 ° compressed, and the difference effect of the divergence angles of the light spots in different directions is small.

In this example, the projection of the plurality of microlenses arranged in an array in the optical axis direction is rectangular, along the long side direction and the short side direction of the rectangle, the ratio of the change amount of the beam divergence angle of each microlens to the beam incident thereon is greater than 1.7:1, in a specific implementation, as shown in fig. 3, taking the microlens array with two columns as an example for explanation, S is a schematic view of a light spot of the laser beam after passing through the microlens array 101, where L1 is a direction in which the beam divergence angle is greater, L2 is a direction in which the beam divergence angle is smaller, L1/L2 is a ratio of the beam divergence angles in two directions, which is greater than or equal to 1.7, and in a specific implementation, L1/L2 is 1.8, and generally, considering the shape ratio of the subsequent picture, L1/L2 is smaller than 3.

In the example of fig. 3, the directions of L1 and L2 do not have unique correspondence with the fast and slow axes of the laser beam.

Illustratively, when the slow axis direction of the laser beam coincides with L1, the angle of divergence of the microlens to the slow axis of the laser beam is greater than 0.5 ° in the L1 direction, and at this time, the L2 direction coincides with the fast axis direction of the laser beam, and the angle of divergence of the microlens to the fast axis of the laser beam is greater than 0.3 ° in the L2 direction.

The slow axis direction of the laser beam may be identical to the L2 direction, and the divergence angle of the microlens with respect to the slow axis of the laser beam may be 0.5 ° or more in the L2 direction.

As shown in fig. 3, the light incident surface of the microlens array may be a plane, and the light emergent surface is a curved surface. In other examples, the light incident surface may be a curved surface, and the light exit surface may be a flat surface.

In this example, the laser spot diverged by the microlens array is incident on the converging lens 105, and forms a stripe-shaped spot on the surface of the fluorescent wheel 103, and is reflected by the fluorescent wheel 103, reflected by the light combining lens 102, and directed to the condensing lens 104, and then directed to the light inlet of the light pipe 106.

In the related art, a light beam is homogenized and diffused by using a diffusion sheet, and a prolate elliptic light spot is formed after passing through a lens and is incident to a light pipe light inlet, as shown in fig. 4 (a), P1 is the shape of the light pipe light inlet, P3 is the shape of the light spot incident to the light pipe light inlet in the related art, the matching relationship between P1 and P3 easily causes the loss of part of the light beam of the elliptic light spot, and as the light beams with different colors cannot reach ideal uniformity during propagation, the aperture boundary phenomenon can occur, and the aperture boundary phenomenon can be exposed more obviously when the matching mode of the elliptic light spot and the rectangular light spot leads to the light loss of an outer ring.

In the present example, the microlens array diverges the incident laser beam in different directions, for example, the microlens diverges the laser beam in the long-side direction more than in the short-side direction with reference to the long-side and short-side directions of the microlens as a coordinate system. The beam has two kinds of information of angle and size when transmitting, namely, the laser beam has a divergence angle and a certain size value when in an unfocused state. In this example, the microlens array can change the divergence angle information of the laser beam, and the laser beam is not focused and imaged in the transmission process of reaching the condensing lens after the light combining lens, the condensing lens and the fluorescent wheel, but finally forms an optical system through the optical components and then forms an angle image at the light inlet of the light pipe, namely, the shape of the P2 light spot shown in fig. 4 (b), the ratio of the long side and the short side of the microlens array is directly related to the ratio of the larger divergence degree and the smaller divergence degree of the laser beam by the microlens array. In a preferred example, the aspect ratio of the P2 light spot is equal to the aspect ratio of the light pipe light inlet, so that the ratio of the larger divergence and smaller divergence of the micro lens array to the laser beam in different directions is equal to the aspect ratio of the light pipe light inlet, thus improving the light receiving efficiency of the light pipe, reducing the light loss condition of the unbalanced edge position and improving the aperture demarcation phenomenon of the light spot.

And, in the embodiment of the present application, the auxiliary direction (y direction) intersects with the target direction (x direction). In fig. 2, the auxiliary direction is perpendicular to the target direction in the embodiment of the present application, alternatively, the included angle between the auxiliary direction and the target direction may be an obtuse angle or an acute angle. The first laser beam S2 and the second laser beam S1 emitted by the laser 100 may be two independent beams, or may be two portions of a whole beam of laser, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Alternatively, the laser 100 may emit not only two laser beams but also three laser beams, four laser beams, or more, and the number of laser beams emitted by the laser is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The first laser beam and the second laser beam in the embodiment of the present application may be any two laser beams among the multiple laser beams emitted by the laser, and description of the first laser beam and the second laser beam may be referred to for the case that the laser emits other laser beams, which is not repeated in the embodiment of the present application. Alternatively, the laser may include a plurality of rows of light emitting chips, and each laser light emitted by the laser may be emitted by one or more rows of light emitting chips.

Since the light conversion region on the fluorescent wheel 103 emits light in all directions when the light conversion region emits fluorescence under the excitation of the laser light, and the side of the fluorescent wheel 103 away from the converging lens 105 is opaque, the light emission angle of the light conversion region may be approximately in the range of 0 to 180 degrees, and the region resembles a lambertian body when the light conversion region emits fluorescence. The light spot formed by the fluorescence emitted by the light conversion region on the converging lens can be close to the whole mirror surface of the converging lens, so that most of the fluorescence collimated by the converging lens is incident on the reflecting region of the converging lens, but part of the fluorescence is also incident on the transmitting region of the converging lens, and optionally, a film layer for transmitting blue laser and reflecting fluorescence can be coated on the transmitting region, so that the reflection quantity of the fluorescence is improved. In the present example, the laser beam is small or narrow, so the width of the transmission region can be made relatively small, and the light loss of fluorescence caused by the transmission region can be reduced as much as possible when the film coating is not performed.

In the projection light source provided by the embodiment of the application, the light converging lens comprises a transmission area and a reflection area, the fluorescent wheel comprises a light conversion area and a laser guiding area, and laser emitted by the laser can be emitted to the fluorescent wheel through the transmission area of the light converging lens, so that the light conversion area is excited to emit fluorescence when emitted to the light conversion area of the fluorescent wheel, and the fluorescence is reflected on the light converging lens along the target direction. When the laser is directed to the laser guiding region of the fluorescent wheel, the laser is reflected by the laser guiding region back to the optical lens and then reflected by the reflecting region of the optical lens in the target direction. Therefore, a relay loop system is not arranged, the laser and fluorescence light combination can be realized only through the light combining lens, and the projection light source has smaller volume.

Based on the projection light source architecture of the above embodiment, the following description will be given of the fluorescent wheel 103 with reference to the accompanying drawings:

Fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a fluorescent wheel according to an embodiment of the present application, and fig. 5 is a top view of the fluorescent wheel in fig. 2. Referring to fig. 2 and 5, the fluorescent wheel 103 may be rotated about the rotation axis Z so that the laser light (e.g., including the first laser beam and the second laser beam) converged to the fluorescent wheel 103 from the converging lens 105 is switched between the light conversion region 1031 and the laser light guiding region 1032. Alternatively, the fluorescent wheel 103 may have a circular ring shape, the ring surface of the circular ring may intersect with the auxiliary direction (y direction), the rotation axis Z may be parallel to the y direction, and the rotation axis Z may pass through the center of the circular ring and be perpendicular to the ring surface of the circular ring. Alternatively, the fluorescent wheel 103 may include a light reflecting substrate on which a partial region may be provided with a fluorescent material (e.g., phosphor) and a partial region may be provided with a light reflecting portion. The region where the fluorescent material is provided is the light conversion region 1031 of the fluorescent wheel 103, and the region where the light reflection portion is provided is the laser light guiding region 1032 of the fluorescent wheel 103. Each color of fluorescent material may be excited by a laser of that color.

When the laser light is directed to the light conversion region 1031, the phosphor thereon may be excited to emit fluorescence of a corresponding color, which is different from the color of the laser light, and the fluorescence may be reflected by the reflective substrate toward the condensing lens 105. For example, at least a green fluorescent material may be disposed in the light conversion region of the fluorescent wheel 103. At least one of a red fluorescent material and a yellow fluorescent material may be provided in the light conversion region. The fluorescence emitted from the light conversion region of the fluorescent wheel 103 may be green fluorescence, red fluorescence, or fluorescence of other colors, such as yellow fluorescence. Alternatively, the fluorescence may be a color. The color of the fluorescence is different from the color of the laser light emitted from the laser 100, for example, the laser 100 may emit blue laser light. Alternatively, the color of the laser light emitted by the laser 100 may be other colors, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

Illustratively, the light conversion region 1031 in the fluorescent wheel 103 in embodiments of the present application may include at least one sub-region, each of which may be provided with a fluorescent material of one color. When the light conversion region 1031 includes a plurality of sub-regions, the plurality of sub-regions and the laser light guiding region 1032 may be arranged in a circumference. The light conversion region 1031v may include two sub-regions G1 and G2 as shown. The fluorescent wheel 103 can be rotated in the w direction or the reverse direction of the w direction about the rotation axis Z. The two sub-regions may include a green fluorescent material and a red fluorescent material, respectively, or the two sub-regions may include a green fluorescent material and a yellow fluorescent material, respectively, or the two sub-regions may include a green fluorescent material and an orange fluorescent material, respectively. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, only the areas of the sub-areas in the light conversion area are equal, and the area of the laser guiding area is also equal to the area of any sub-area. Alternatively, the areas of the sub-regions and the laser guiding regions in the light conversion region of the fluorescent wheel may be different, and the areas of the sub-regions and the laser guiding regions of the fluorescent wheel may be designed according to the ratio of the light emitted by the sub-regions to the light required to be obtained.

The laser light is directed to the laser light guiding region 1032 of the fluorescent wheel 103, the laser light guiding region 1032 being configured to reflect laser light incident thereon, the laser light guiding region 1032 being free of wavelength conversion material.

Both the fluorescence emitted from the light conversion region 1031 of the fluorescent wheel 103 and the laser light emitted from the laser light guiding region 1032 of the fluorescent wheel 103 can be directed to the condensing lens 105 over a wide light exit angle range. Alternatively, the laser light and the fluorescent light may both be parallel light after passing through the condensing lens 105. Since the light conversion area and the laser guiding area in the fluorescent wheel are similar to lambertian bodies when emitting light, the light is emitted towards the whole surface of the converging lens, and the converging lens can collimate the incident light so that the light is emitted in a form similar to parallel light in a whole beam. Alternatively, the embodiment of the present application takes the case that the converging lens 105 is only one convex lens, and alternatively, the converging lens 105 may be formed by a plurality of lenses, so as to improve the converging effect of the converging lens on light.

The following describes the lens 102 with reference to the accompanying drawings:

With continued reference to fig. 2, the mirror surface of the converging lens 102 may be obliquely arranged to ensure that the light emitted from the converging lens is reflected in the target direction. Light (e.g., laser light or fluorescent light) directed from the condensing lens 105 to the condensing lens 102 is similar to parallel light, and may exit from the entire surface of the condensing lens 105. The light directed to the combiner lens 102 may be directed not only to the reflective region in the combiner lens 102, but also to the transmissive region in the combiner lens 102. The reflection area in the light-converging lens 102 may reflect the laser light and the fluorescence, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited as to whether the reflection area reflects the light having a color different from that of the laser light and the fluorescence. The reflective region may be, for example, a full spectrum highly reflective film, i.e., reflecting light of all colors. The light converging lens 102 may have opposite first and second faces, the first face may face the laser 100 and the second face may face the converging lens 105. The first surface is the light incident surface of the light-converging lens 102, and the second surface is the light emergent surface of the light-converging lens 102. Alternatively, light directed from the converging lens 105 to the combining lens 102 may be reflected at the second face.

Alternatively, the transmissive region in the light-combining lens 102 may have dichroism. The transmission region may transmit laser light (also laser light emitted from the laser 100) reflected by the laser light guiding region 1032 of the fluorescent wheel 103, and reflect fluorescent light emitted from the light conversion region 1031 of the fluorescent wheel 103. Alternatively, the transmissive region may reflect light of a different color than the laser light. For example, the transmissive region may be used to transmit blue light and reflect red and green light. The fluorescence excited by the light conversion region 1031 of the fluorescence wheel 103 can be reflected in the target direction after being directed to the light-converging lens 102, so that a projection screen can be formed later, and the utilization rate of the fluorescence is ensured. Alternatively, the transmission region in the light-converging lens 102 may also be transmitted for all light.

Alternatively, the area of the transmissive region in the light-converging lens 102 may be smaller than the area of the reflective region. For example, the total area of all the transmissive regions in the light-converging lens 102 may be smaller than the total area of all the reflective regions, the area of each transmissive region may be smaller than the area of its adjacent reflective region, or the area of each reflective region may be smaller. Alternatively, the area of each transmissive region may be less than or equal to 1/4 of the area of the reflective region adjacent to the transmissive region. Optionally, the areas of the transmission areas in the light combining lens 102 are equal, and the areas of the reflection areas are also equal; or the areas of the transmission areas can be different, and the areas of the reflection areas can be different. The area of the transmission region in the light-converging lens 102 may be sufficient to transmit the incident laser light.

Fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of another projection light source according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 6, the laser 10 may further include a beam shrinking component 107 on the basis of fig. 2. The laser light emitted from the laser 100 may be condensed by the beam condensing unit 107 and then emitted to the transmission region in the microlens array 101 and the light converging lens 102. As illustrated in fig. 6, for example, the beam shrinking part 107 may include one convex lens 1021 and one concave lens 1072 sequentially arranged in the auxiliary direction, and the convex lens 1071 may be collinear with the optical axis of the concave lens 1072. Alternatively, the optical axis of the beam shrinking section 107 and the optical axis of the converging lens 105 may not be collinear. The first laser beam S2 and the second laser beam S1 as emitted by the laser 100 may be symmetrical about the optical axis of the beam shrinking section 107 to ensure that the beam shrinking section 107 shrinks the two laser beams to the same extent. Alternatively, the optical axis of the beam shrinking section 107 and the optical axis of the converging lens 105 may be collinear, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

The laser beam emitted from the laser 100 may be attenuated after being condensed by the condensing part 107, and the finer the laser beam, the smaller the size of the microlens array 101 may be made, and the smaller the area of the transmission region in the light combining lens 102 may be. Optionally, the beam shrinking component 107 is a high-magnification telescope system, which can shrink the light beam to a greater extent; the area of the transmission region in the light-condensing lens 102 can thus be smaller. Further, even if the laser light emitted from the converging lens 105 is directed to and transmitted through the transmission region in the converging lens 102, since the area of the transmission region is small, only a small amount of laser light is wasted, and the laser light utilization efficiency is high.

Optionally, the surface (i.e., the first surface) of the light converging lens 102, which is close to the beam converging part 107, is provided with an antireflection film to increase the laser light transmittance of the light converging lens 102. For example, the anti-reflection film can only increase the transmittance for the laser (such as blue laser) emitted by the laser, and is a blue light anti-reflection film; or the anti-reflection film can increase the transmittance for the light rays of the full spectrum, and the anti-reflection film is the full spectrum anti-reflection film. The surface of the light combining lens 102 near the beam shrinking member 107 may be entirely provided with an antireflection film. Alternatively, since only the transmission region in the light combining lens 102 is used to transmit laser light, an antireflection film may be provided only in the transmission region. Thus, more laser light can be transmitted from the light converging lens 102, the loss of the laser light is less, and the utilization rate of the laser light is improved.

The embodiment of the present application takes as an example that the number of light beams emitted to the light-converging lens 102 is equal to the number of transmission regions in the light-converging lens 102, and the number of transmission regions and reflection regions in the light-converging lens 102 are equal. Alternatively, the number of transmission areas and reflection areas in the light-converging lens 102 may be larger than the number of laser beams emitted from the laser. For example, even if the laser emits two laser beams, the light combining lens may include three reflection areas, and the right side of the second transmission area 1021b may further have one reflection area on the basis of the light combining lens shown in fig. 2, so that as much light emitted from the converging lens 105 as possible is reflected by the light combining lens 102 along the target direction, thereby ensuring the light utilization rate. Alternatively, the front projection of the converging lens 102 onto the fluorescent wheel 103 may completely cover the front projection of the converging lens 105 onto the fluorescent wheel 103.

In an alternative implementation manner of the light-combining lens, functional film layers may be disposed on different areas of the light-transmitting substrate, so as to obtain a transmission area and a reflection area in the light-combining lens. For example, as for the reflective region, the reflective region of the light combining lens 102 may have a plating film. The coating may be a full-band reflective film or a reflective film for red, green, and blue bands. The coating film may be located on a side of the beam converging lens 102 close to the beam converging part 102, or may be located on a side of the beam converging lens 102 far from the beam converging part 102. For the transmission region, a dichroic film is provided on at least the surface of the transmission region on the side of the light converging lens 102 close to the beam converging member 102. The dichroic film may be used to transmit blue light, reflecting red and green light. In another alternative implementation of the light-converging lens, the reflective region of the light-converging lens 102 may also be directly made of a reflective material. Alternatively, the transmissive region in the light-combining lens 102 may be directly made of a material having dichroism. At this time, the plating film and the dichroic film may not be provided.

The laser 100 is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

In an embodiment of the present application, the projection light source may include a laser 100, and multiple laser beams respectively directed to multiple transmission regions of the light-converging lens 102 are emitted by the same laser 100. The laser 100 may be a multi-chip laser Diode (MCL) type laser, and the MCL type laser may include a plurality of light emitting chips, each of which may independently emit laser light, arrayed in the same package. The first laser beam and the second laser beam are respectively emitted from different light emitting areas of the laser, for example, the first laser beam and the second laser beam can be respectively emitted from different light emitting chips in the laser. Alternatively, the multiple lasers directed to the multiple transmissive regions of the light converging lens 102 may originate from different lasers, and embodiments of the present application are not limited.

In the first light emitting mode of the laser, all light emitting chips in the laser emit light simultaneously, so that multiple laser beams are emitted simultaneously. In this case, the brightness of the laser light emitted from the laser is high, and the brightness is still high after the laser light is collected in the target direction by the optical components such as the beam condensing member, the light combining lens, the condensing lens, and the fluorescent wheel. The laser has higher energy and can excite the light conversion area on the fluorescent wheel to emit fluorescent light with higher brightness. The brightness of the formed projection picture obtained by mixing the laser and the fluorescence is higher, so that the brightness of the formed projection picture is higher, and the projection effect of the projection equipment is better.

In the second light emission mode of the laser, the light emitting chip in the laser may emit light in a time-sharing manner. The first part chip and the second part chip alternately emit light in the laser; the light emission time of the first and second partial chips may be determined according to the switching timing of the light conversion region and the laser guide region in the fluorescent wheel. The laser light emitted from the first portion of the chip is directed to the light conversion region and the laser light emitted from the second portion of the chip is directed to the laser light guiding region. For example, the first laser beam S2 emitted by the laser in fig. 2 and 6 may be the laser emitted by the first part of the chip, and the second laser beam S1 may be the laser emitted by the second part of the chip. In this case, since the light emitting chip in the laser does not need to emit light continuously, the light emitting chip can be supplied with power by a pulse current, and the energy of the pulse current is high, so that the laser light emitting chip can emit laser light with high brightness. And the light-emitting chip in the laser does not need to emit light continuously, so that the service life of the light-emitting chip in the laser can be prolonged. Alternatively, the light emitting time of each light emitting chip in the laser may be irrelevant to the switching timing of the light conversion region and the laser guiding region in the fluorescent wheel, and the embodiment of the application is not limited.

Alternatively, the first part of the chip may be subdivided into several parts, each part of the chip emitting laser light for directing the laser light to a sub-region in the light-converting region. Alternatively, the number of the first part chips and the second part chips may be the same or may be different, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

In the example of fig. 2, the light emitting surface of the laser 100 is parallel to the light receiving surface of the fluorescent wheel 103, while in the example of fig. 6, the projection light source 10 further includes a beam splitter 108 located at the light emitting side of the laser 100, where the laser 100 may emit laser light, and the beam splitter 108 may split the laser light emitted by the laser 100 into multiple laser beams and then emit the multiple laser beams to the beam shrinking component 102. Alternatively, the light emitting surface of the laser 100 may be perpendicular to the light receiving surface of the fluorescent wheel 103 in this case, where the laser 100 and the light splitting device 108 are sequentially arranged in the x direction, and the light splitting device 108, the beam shrinking part 107, the light combining lens 102, the converging lens 105, and the fluorescent wheel are sequentially arranged in the y direction. The beam splitter 108 may turn the transmission direction of the laser light emitted from the laser 100, for example, from the x direction to the y direction. In the embodiment of the present application, the beam splitter 108 is further included on the basis that the projection light source includes the beam shrinking component 107, alternatively, the projection light source may also include the beam splitter when the beam shrinking component is not included, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

Illustratively, the beam splitter 108 includes a plurality of beam splitters that are each different in distance from the light exit face of the laser 100. The distance between the beam splitter and the light emitting surface of the laser may include: the beam splitter is near any point of the surface of the laser and is away from the light-emitting surface. The plurality of spectroscopes in the spectroscope device can satisfy: at least part of one spectroscope is orthographic projected on the light-emitting surface of the laser and is positioned outside orthographic projection of the other spectroscope on the light-emitting surface of the laser; the minimum separation of the point in one beam splitter from the laser may be greater than the maximum separation of the point in the other beam splitter from the laser. The distance from the laser at all points in the surface of each beam splitter near the laser is different from the distance from the laser at any point in the surface of the other beam splitter near the laser.

Each beam splitter is configured to receive a portion of the laser light emitted from the laser 100 and reflect the portion of the laser light toward the beam shrinking section 107, so as to divide the laser light emitted from the laser 100 into a plurality of laser light beams directed toward the beam shrinking section 107. Alternatively, each surface of the beam splitter may be a light reflecting surface, or only a surface facing the laser 100 may be a light reflecting surface in the beam splitter. Alternatively, the distance between the laser beams obtained by beam splitting may be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the respective beam splitters. The number of beam splitters in the spectroscopic device 108 is the same as the number of laser beams obtained by splitting the laser beam, and the number of transmission regions in the light converging lens 102. Alternatively, the light splitting device may also implement light splitting in other manners, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 6, the beam splitter 108 includes two beam splitters, beam splitters 1081 and 1082, respectively. The laser 100 may emit only one laser beam, and the one laser beam may be directed to the beam splitters 1081 and 1082, and each beam splitter may reflect a portion of the one laser beam directed to the beam splitter, respectively, so that the two beam splitters may divide the one laser beam into the first laser beam S2 and the second laser beam S1. As shown in fig. 5, the larger the distance between the two beam splitters in the x direction (i.e., the light emitting direction of the laser 100) in the projection light source, the larger the distance between the two laser beams obtained by splitting the laser light emitted from the laser 100. The pitch of the laser beams emitted from the beam splitters, that is, the pitch of the laser beams emitted to the beam condensing unit 102, can be adjusted by adjusting the pitch of the beam splitters in the light emitting direction of the laser 100.

Alternatively, for the case of fig. 6, the laser 100 may simultaneously emit laser light to all of the plurality of beamsplitters. Or may be laser light to different beamsplitters at different times. For example, the laser includes a plurality of light emitting chips, and each light emitting chip corresponds to one spectroscope, and each light emitting chip is capable of emitting light to the corresponding spectroscope. The light emitting chips which emit light in the lasers at different times are different, so that the lasers can emit laser to different spectroscopes at different times. For the light emitting manner of the laser, please refer to the description of the two light emitting manners of the laser in fig. 2, and the description of the embodiment of the present application is omitted.

Fig. 7 shows another projection light source schematic. Unlike the projection light source example shown in fig. 6, in the example of fig. 7, the light beam emitted from the laser 100 passes through a plurality of beam splitters to turn the light path and split the light. As shown in fig. 7, includes a beam splitter 1091, a beam splitter 1092, a beam splitter 1093, and a beam splitter 1094. The beam splitters can provide a turning light path and facilitate adjusting the gap between different beams.

And, in the example of fig. 7, unlike in both fig. 6 and fig. 2, in the examples of fig. 2 and fig. 6, the microlens array is a single-sided microlens array, and in the example of fig. 7, the microlens array 101a is a double-sided microlens array.

In the example of fig. 2 or fig. 6, the radius of curvature of the microlenses in the single-sided microlens array is R1, and in the example of fig. 7, the double-sided microlens array includes a first-sided microlens array and a second-sided microlens array, where the first-sided microlens array is disposed close to the light-emitting surface of the laser, and in a specific implementation, the microlenses of the double-sided microlens array are the same in size, and the radius of curvature is R2, where 2.3 ∈ (R2/R1) ∈1.8. And, the first one of the two-sided microlens arrays is capable of imaging the laser beam onto the phosphor wheel, as opposed to presenting a reduced rectangular spot on the phosphor wheel only when a single-sided microlens is used.

In one embodiment, R2/r1=2, the microlenses of the double-sided microlens array are also rectangular in projection along the optical axis direction, and diverge the incident laser beam in different directions to different extents. The angle information of the laser beam passing through the double-sided microlens array is also changed compared with the collimated beam emitted from the laser, and finally, the laser beam can be imaged on the light inlet of the light pipe at an angle.

Fig. 8 is a schematic view of an imaging optical path of a projection apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 8, the projection device may further include a light valve 110 and a lens 111 on the basis of fig. 6. The light guide 106, which is a light uniformizing member in the projection light source 10, may direct light to the light valve 110, the light valve 110 may modulate the incident light and then direct the modulated light to the lens 111, and the lens 111 may project the incident light to form a projection screen.

For example, the light valve 110 may include a plurality of reflective sheets, each of which may be used to form a pixel in the projection screen, and the light valve 110 may reflect the laser light to the lens 111 according to the image to be displayed by the reflective sheet corresponding to the pixel to be displayed in a bright state, so as to modulate the light. The lens 111 may include a plurality of lenses (not shown in the drawing), and for the arrangement of the respective structures in the projection apparatus shown in fig. 8, the respective lenses in the lens 111 may be sequentially arranged in a direction perpendicular to the paper surface to the outside. The laser emitted from the light valve 110 may sequentially pass through a plurality of lenses in the lens 111 to be emitted to the screen, so as to realize the projection of the lens 111 to the laser, and realize the display of a projection picture.

Optionally, referring to fig. 8, the projection apparatus may further include an illumination lens set 112 disposed between the light homogenizing component and the light valve 110, and the laser light homogenized by the light homogenizing component may be directed to the light valve 110 through the illumination lens set 112. The illumination lens group 112 may include a reflective sheet F, a lens T, and a total internal reflection (total internal reflection prism, TIR) prism L. The laser emitted from the light homogenizing member may be directed to the reflective sheet F, which may reflect the incident light to the convex lens T, which may converge the incident laser to the total internal reflection prism L, which may reflect the incident laser to the light valve 110.

Fig. 9 provides an ultra-short focal projection system, in which an ultra-short focal projection device 001 projects an image beam obliquely upward onto a screen for imaging, wherein the ultra-short focal projection device 001 may include the projection light source illustrated in fig. 2 or fig. 6 or fig. 7, or may include the projection optical imaging system illustrated in fig. 8.

In summary, in the projection light source of the projection device provided by the embodiments of the present application, the laser emits a plurality of laser beams, after passing through the microlens array, each microlens will make the incident laser beams diverge to different degrees along the fast axis and the slow axis of the microlens array, the diverged laser beams enter the fluorescent wheel through the transmission area of the light combining lens as strip-shaped light spots, and sequentially irradiate the light conversion area of the fluorescent wheel to generate fluorescence along with the rotation of the fluorescent wheel, and the generated fluorescence and the laser reflected by the laser guiding area enter the light combining lens again, the reflection area of the light combining lens changes the angle information of the laser beams after passing through the microlens array, and forms different divergence angles in different directions, and the ratio of the divergence angles in different directions is exactly related to the ratio of the long side and the short side of the rectangular light guide at the light entrance, so that when the light beams pass through the optical system, the angle images can better match the shape of the light receiving aperture, the light receiving aperture can be further improved, and the incidence aperture can be prevented from being further mismatched.

And the projection light source provided by the embodiment of the application does not use a blue light loop, and uses one light converging lens to complete the light combination of laser and fluorescence, so that the light source has compact structure and is beneficial to miniaturization.
