What work formed.It is clear in order to illustrate in Fig. 5, it illustrate only two microstructure units.Projector below screen enters
Penetrate light 123 to go out to occur once to be totally reflected respectively in two inclined surfaces 124 and 125, finally reflex to the eyes side of beholder
To.Environment veiling glare 127 mostlys come from the ceiling light in room.In most cases, micro-structural list of the ceiling light away from screen
The rotation axis of the rotational symmetry structure of member and the incidence angle of environment veiling glare 127 are much smaller than the incident angle of projection ray.Cause
This, environment veiling glare 127 can not meet the condition being totally reflected on surface 124 and surface 125, and the overwhelming majority has passed through micro-
Construction unit is absorbed by light absorbing layer 11.Because light absorbing layer 11 is integrally provided at the inner side of total reflection layer 12, so manufacture

2nd, the optical principle and angle Selection of microstructure unit are totally reflected
The optics that Fig. 6 illustrates the total reflection microstructure unit of the total reflection screen according to the utility model embodiment is former
Reason.As shown in fig. 6, the refractive index of microstructured layers 121 is n1Refractive index with la m 122 is n2, two of microstructure unit
Inclined-plane and the angle of screen plane (that is, vertical direction) are respectively θ1And θ2(unit is degree, similarly hereinafter).Incident ray and reflected light
Line and the angle of vertical direction are respectively α and β (unit is degree, similarly hereinafter).Wherein, when reflection light horizontal exit, β is obvious
For 0 degree, and set:When reflection light (that is, is inclined to ground) below horizontal line, β is negative value, when reflection light is in level
When more than line (that is, be inclined to ceiling) β be on the occasion of.In order that the incident ray from projector 20 is sent out in two inclined planes
It is emitted after raw total reflection twice towards the eyes direction of beholder, according to geometric optical theory and optical total-reflection condition, it is necessary to
Meet formula below (1)~(3):
θ can not be determined completely based on above-mentioned formula (1)~(3)1And θ2Value, also leave certain design freedom.
Assuming that the angle of the intermediate rays and screen plane (that is, vertical direction) between incident ray and emergent ray is γ, and set
It is during settled intermediate rays deviation viewer sideFor on the occasion of, when intermediate rays be inclined to viewer side when beFor negative value.Then according to several
What optical principle and optical total-reflection condition can calculate:
From formula (4) and (5), as long as the light path of incident ray, emergent ray and intermediate rays is determined (i.e., really
Determine α, β and γ), it is possible to the tilt angle theta of two intersecting planes of micro-structural is determined completely1And θ2。
In addition, also known by formula (4) and (5), even if determine incident ray, emergent ray light path situation
Under, can also be according to according to different application demands, by adjusting the light path (that is, the value for adjusting γ) of intermediate rays one
Determine in scope to θ1And θ2Value selected.For example, in the application of ultrashort out-of-focus projection, projector is located under screen
Side, so α>0 always sets up;And the eyes of spectators are located at the top of projector, in order to ensure that emergent ray is incident to spectators
Eyes, so alpha+beta>0 also always sets up;In the case, can be obtained by formula (1):
θ1+θ2< 90 (6)
From formula (4), in the application of ultrashort out-of-focus projection, according to micro- knot of total reflection screen of the present utility model
Angle between two inclined planes 124 and 125 of structure unit is necessary for obtuse angle.
A kind of preferably light path situation is shown in Fig. 7 a, wherein, incident projection ray Vin passes through micro-structural list
Intermediate rays Vmid after the total reflection on one inclined-plane of member is in microstructured layers 121 along the direction parallel with screen plane
Advance, Vmid turns into towards beholder direction horizontal exit after the total reflection on another inclined-plane of microstructure unit
Emergent ray Vout.
In the case of shown in Fig. 7 a, now, γ=0 degree, β=0 degree, work as θ2=45 degree, emergent ray along with
The outgoing of screen vertical is β=0 degree, then understands θ according to above-mentioned formula (6)1<45 degree, namely θ1<θ2。
But in actual applications, it is also possible to such as Fig. 7 b and c be present and show nonideal light path situation.In Fig. 7 b
In, incident ray Vin generates intermediate rays Vmid, but Vmid row after the total reflection on the first inclined-plane of microstructure unit
Enter direction and be not parallel to screen plane, but be partial to beholder side (now γ be on the occasion of).Therefore, part Vmid may
It is not emitted directly by the second slant reflection, the first inclined-plane of microstructure unit can not be made full use of.It is incident in Fig. 7 c
Light Vin generates intermediate rays Vmid after the total reflection on the first inclined-plane of microstructure unit, but Vmid direct of travel is not
Parallel to screen plane, but it is partial to backwards to the side of beholder (now γ is negative value).Therefore, it is impossible to make full use of micro-
Second inclined-plane of construction unit.
In addition, as described above, rotational symmetry structure is had according to total reflection screen 10 of the present utility model, and comprising more
Individual microstructure unit.Therefore, the angle design of each microstructure unit can be same or different.For example, Fig. 8 is illustrated
According to the simulative example of the optical angle of the microstructure unit of total reflection screen of the present utility model.It is complete shown in Fig. 8 a
The focus of reflective viewing screen is located at infinite point, in other words, in all microstructure units of total reflection screen, emergent ray
The flatly direction of directive beholder, so β=0 degree and θ2=45 degree are set up always.It can be seen from analog result, micro- knot
The θ of structure unit1It is gradually reduced with the top of close screen, and θ1<θ2, thus meet above-mentioned formula (4).In Fig. 8 b institutes
In the total reflection screen shown, the focus for being totally reflected screen is no longer at infinite point.In the case, along from screen
The heart is totally reflected the θ of the microstructure unit of screen to the direction of screen edge1Value constantly reduce and θ2Value constantly increase
Greatly.
3rd, it is totally reflected the refractive index selection of microstructure unit
Except θ1And θ2Value outside, from optical total-reflection formula, meet the micro- knot of total reflection being totally reflected twice
Structure unit is also by the refractive index n of microstructured layers 1211With the refractive index n of la m 1222Influence.According to of the present utility model
The microstructured layers 121 for being totally reflected screen are typically scope of its refractive index 1.3~1.7 made of transparent resin material
It is interior.Or microstructured layers 121 can also use the other materials with similar refractive index to be made.Furthermore it is also possible to it is being made
Scattered ion(s) or absorbing material etc. are adulterated in the material of microstructured layers 121.Thus, in order to meet total reflection condition, it is necessary to
Consider the refractive index n of la m 1222Selection.Fig. 9 shows the different refractivity n of la m 1222For microstructure unit
Incident ray total reflection region influence.As shown in Fig. 9 a, incident ray V can be expressed as (Vx,Vy,Vz), wherein z
Axle normal to screen, and X, Y-axis is parallel to screen.Obviously, the total reflection region of incident ray depends on VxAnd VyValue model
Enclose.VzMeet:
It is assumed that emergent ray is towards the eyes of beholder and the refractive index n of microstructured layers 1211For 1.6, according to above-mentioned public affairs
Formula (2) and (3) can obtain the component (V for the incident ray for meeting total reflection conditionx,Vy) span with la m 122
Refractive index n2Variation tendency.As shown in Fig. 9 b, with n2Increase, meet to send out on two inclined-planes of microstructure unit
Constantly reduce in the region of the incident ray of raw total reflection.In other words, with n2Increase, the light sent from projector can not
The probability increase being totally reflected twice occurs on two inclined-planes of microstructure unit.Therefore, in order to ensure certain screen reflection effect
Rate is, it is necessary to make n1And n2Meet:
n2<n1-0.2 (6)
It should be appreciated that in the case where meeting above-mentioned condition, la m 122 can be air layer.In the case, it is micro-
The tip on two inclined-planes of structure sheaf 121 is directly bonded to light absorbing layer 11.
4th, the selection of light diffusion layer
As described above, projection ray after the reflection of total reflection layer 12, the general all very littles of the angle of divergence of emergent ray, is
The visual range of increase projected picture, light diffusion layer can be set in the outside of total reflection layer 12.In the example shown in Fig. 3
In, total reflection layer 12 be orderly arranged outside each body diffused layer 13 and surface micro-structure layer 14 is used as light diffusion layer.However,
One layer of light diffusion layer can be provided only with or be not provided with light diffusion layer.Figure 10 a~c respectively illustrates 3 kinds and may be used as light
The commercialization optical scattering membrane structure of diffusion layer:Volume scattering film, irregular surface scattering film and regular surfaces lenticule
Array film.This several scattering thin-film material may serve to increase the visual range of screen, and can be independent as needed
Using or stacking use.For example, figure can be formed using volume scattering film and regular surfaces microlens array film by superposition
Body diffused layer 13 and surface micro-structure layer 14 in 3.The value volume and range of product not limited to this of stacking.
In the case where using optical scattering film as light diffusion layer, total reflection layer and light diffusion layer is first respectively prepared,
Then it is bonded by optics attaching process.Alternately, two to same substrate carrier (for example, PET) can also be passed through
Individual surface is processed, and forms light scattering layer and total reflection layer respectively.
5th, it is totally reflected the simulation result of the performance of screen
Figure 11 to Figure 13 respectively illustrates the scatter distributions and screen of the total reflection screen according to embodiment of the present utility model
The simulation results of curtain gain.
Figure 11 illustrate use 15 degree Gauss scatter film as light diffusion layer in the case of be totally reflected screen to throwing
The analogue simulation of the reflection of the light of shadow machine.Figure 11 a shows distribution of the projection ray of screen reflection in full filed,
Figure 11 b shows the screen gain of total reflection screen.From Figure 11 a, most of light from projector is all concentrated
In the circular available field of view region close to screen center;Fraction light is reflected because of the Fresnel reflection of screen surface
To the direction of ceiling.From Figure 11 b, in the case of 20 degree of gain angles, it is possible to achieve the water of peak gain 5.5
It is flat.Figure 12 illustrate use 15 degree Gauss scatter film as light diffusion layer in the case of total reflection screen to ambient light
The analogue simulation of the reflection of line.Simulation result show most of ambient light pass through total reflection layer after by the light absorbing layer of black
Absorb, only fraction ambient light is reflected onto the direction on ground because of the Fresnel reflection of screen surface.Thus, only
Extremely least a portion of ambient light can be entered in the available field of view of beholder, therefore the contrast of projected picture will not be caused
Influence.
In the application scenarios of reality, the horizontal view angle that spectators watch screen is more than vertical angle of view.Therefore using oval high
The scattering film of this scatter distributions can effectively increase the horizontal dispersion distribution of the reflected beams as light diffusion layer, so as to increase
The utilization rate of reflected light is added.Figure 13 simulation result shows that the screen of film is scattered using the Gaussian Profile of ellipse to incite somebody to action
The horizontal view angle of screen is expanded to 35~40 degree, and vertical angle of view, in the range of 20 degree, the peak value of gain still can be up to
More than 3~5.
Figure 14 shows the simulation results of the contrast to being carried out according to total reflection screen of the present utility model.Such as
Shown in Figure 14 a, total reflection screen is divided into some regions, and in the projector below screen and above screen
Illumination identical of the parlor ceiling light on screen in the case of test the contrasts of wherein 9 points.As shown in Figure 14 b, emulation
As a result the average value displayed contrast can be higher than 60, considerably beyond the level of projection screen in the market.In reality
In the case of the use of border, the illumination of the projection ray of projector on screen can be more than the illumination of ambient light.Thus, with throwing
The increase of the illumination of shadow light, can also further increase relative to the contrast of ambient light, can meet completely family projection and
Demand of the commercial projection to projected picture contrast.
Although above with reference to the accompanying drawings of according to luminaire of the present utility model, the utility model
Not limited to this, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that in the essence limited without departing from the utility model following claims or
In the case of scope, various changes, combination, secondary combination and modification can be made.
