  By using the technique of Patent Document 1, even if the eye height of the subject is different, an examination target can be presented at the center of the presentation window, and the examination can be appropriately performed. However, when masks are applied to targets that are presented in multiple stages on one screen so that only the upper or lower stage is presented, the presentation position of the upper or lower stage target is the same as the line of sight of the subject. On the other hand, it is presented in a state shifted up and down. In the case of presentation of a target with a mask on the upper stage or the lower stage, the subject is troublesome to move his / her line of sight up and down. In addition, since the upper, middle, and lower presentation positions are separated, there is a problem that it is easy to learn the contents of the inspection target from the arrangement position of the inspection target. If the contents of the inspection target are memorized from the arrangement of the inspection targets, the visual state of the inspection target is relied on depending on the memory, and accurate inspection cannot be performed. Further, in the case of a single vertical mask, the same kind of problem occurs in the case of a single character mask.

  In view of the above-described problems of the prior art, the present invention reduces the inconvenience of the movement of the line of sight when presenting the inspection target by masking, and can reduce the response by storing the inspection target.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the troublesome movement of the line of sight when presenting the inspection target by masking, and to reduce the response due to the storage of the inspection target.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an optotype presenting apparatus according to the present invention.

  A presentation window 2 made of an acrylic plate provided with an antireflection film is disposed in front of the casing 1a of the apparatus main body 1, and the subject can see the target in the casing through the presentation window 2. . The interior of the housing 1a is painted black so that the internal structure is difficult to see. A transmission / reception unit 4 for transmitting / receiving optical signals to / from a wireless remote controller 40 to be described later is arranged on the front surface of the housing 1a.

  Next, the light guide optical system disposed inside the housing 1a will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 is a schematic perspective view when viewed from the right side of the housing 1a, and FIG. 3 is a schematic perspective view when viewed from the front.

  On the same circumference of a disk-shaped target disc plate 20 made of a glass plate, a large number of inspection targets such as a visual acuity target are formed by chromium vapor deposition or the like. The optotype disc plate 20 is rotated by a motor 21 so that the optotype to be presented to the eye E is switched and arranged in the inspection optical path. A mask plate 22 for masking a part of the presentation target is rotated by a motor 23.

  A light guide optical system having an illumination light source 24, a mirror 25, a beam splitter 26, and a concave mirror 27 for illuminating the inspection target is disposed inside the housing 1a. In this embodiment, the concave mirror 27 has an optical distance between the visual target and the eye E to be 5 m when the distance between the eye E and the presentation window 2 of the housing 1a is 1.1 m. The focal length is designed. The distance between the eye E to be examined and the presentation window 2 of the housing 1a may be set to, for example, 0.9 m according to the product specifications.

  The light beam of the inspection target illuminated by the illumination light source 24 is reflected upward by the mirror 25, passes through the beam splitter 26, and then is reflected by the concave mirror 27. The target luminous flux reflected by the concave mirror 27 is reflected by the beam splitter 26 and travels toward the eye E through the presentation window 2.

  The beam splitter 26 is obliquely arranged on the optical axis L01 of the concave mirror 27, and is rotated in the vertical direction by a vertical rotation motor 29 about a rotary shaft 28 extending in the horizontal direction on the optical axis L01. By rotating the beam splitter 26 in the vertical direction, the height of the target luminous flux reflected by the beam splitter 26 is changed according to the difference in height of the eye E to be examined. Further, the rotation angle of the beam splitter 26 is changed according to the vertical position of the inspection target to be masked by the mask plate 22. A rotating plate 37 is disposed below the beam splitter 26 so as to be rotatable around the optical axis L01 extending in the vertical direction. In the central portion of the rotating plate 37, a space is formed through which the target luminous flux reflected by the mirror 25 passes. The rotating shaft 28 is rotatably held by two support columns 36 standing around the rotating plate 37. A gear is formed on the outer periphery of the rotating plate 37, and this gear is engaged with a gear 38 attached to the rotating shaft of the motor 39. With this configuration, when the motor 39 is rotated, the beam splitter 26 is rotated in the left-right direction around the optical axis L01. Thereby, the left-right direction to which the target luminous flux reflected by the beam splitter 26 is changed is changed. The rotation angle of the beam splitter 26 in the left-right direction can be changed according to the left-right position of the inspection target to be masked by the mask plate 22.

  In FIG. 2, a detection optical system 30 for detecting the height position of the eye to be examined is disposed behind the beam splitter 26. The detection optical system 30 includes a condenser lens 31 and a two-dimensional position detection element 32.

  FIG. 4 shows details of the target disc plate 20 and the mask plate 22. On the optotype disc plate 20 in FIG. 4 (a), a plurality of views in which Landolt's an eyesight target having various visual acuity values, a hiragana visual acuity target, a red / green test, a binocular balance target, and the like are drawn. The mark screen is provided on the same circumference. Each target screen 50 is rotated about the rotation axis 53 of the target disk plate 20 and selectively switched to the target light path of the illumination light source 24, whereby 1 from the presentation window 2 into the housing 1a. Presented as one screen.

  In the visual acuity target inspection target, a character-filled target in which a plurality of targets are formed on one target screen 50 in the form of horizontal 3 rows × vertical 5 columns is prepared. In the character jammed target, only a part of the target drawn on the character jammed target can be presented in the presentation window 2 by switching and arranging one of the masks provided on the mask plate 22.

  In the drawing showing the mask plate 22 in FIG. 4B, the alternate long and short dash line 67 a extending radially about the rotation axis 67 represents the center of the target screen 50 in the vertical direction. In the figure, a one-dot chain line 67b drawn on an arc having the same radius represents the center of the visual target screen 50 in the horizontal direction. The mask plate 22 has an opening 60 for presenting the entire target surface without applying a mask, and a horizontal one-line mask for presenting the target at the upper, middle, and lower positions on the character target screen. 61 (upper horizontal row mask 61a, middle horizontal row mask 61b, lower horizontal row mask 61c) and vertical row mask 62 (left end vertical row mask 62a, center vertical row mask 62b) for presenting the target in the vertical direction. , A right-end vertical one-line mask 62c) and one-character masks 63, 64, 65 for individually presenting the visual target for each character. The one-character mask 63 has a mask for individually presenting two targets arranged in one horizontal row, and the one-character mask 64 has a mask for individually presenting three targets arranged in one horizontal row. The character mask 65 has a mask for individually presenting visual targets arranged in 3 horizontal rows × 5 vertical columns.

  The target presented by the target disc 20 and the mask plate 22 is selected by the remote controller 40. FIG. 5 shows an external appearance of the remote controller 40 and a control block diagram of the entire visual target presenting apparatus. The remote controller 40 includes a switch 42 for selecting a target screen, a switch 43 for switching one character / horizontal row mask, and switches 47a and 47b for selecting a horizontal row mask during presentation of a clogged target (the mask is already applied). Sometimes switches used to move the mask up and down, and switches 47c and 47d for selecting a vertical line mask during presentation of a clogged target (when the mask is already moved, when moving the mask left or right) A switch 44 used to move up and down the beam splitter 26 up and down to move the target display screen to be viewed through the display window 2, and to automatically set the target display position. And a switch 45 used for the above. In addition, the remote controller 40 includes a liquid crystal display 46 that displays a presentation target, operation information, and the like on the surface. A communication window 40a for transmitting a signal for controlling the apparatus main body 1 and receiving a signal from the apparatus main body is provided on the front side of the remote controller 40.

  The switch signal is transmitted from the communication window 40 a to the apparatus main body 1 side by the operation of the remote controller 40, and the signal received by the transmission / reception unit 4 is transmitted to the control unit 10. Based on the signal input via the transmission / reception unit 4, the control unit 10 drives the motors 21 and 23 to set the selected target screen 50 and the selected mask in the optical path. When the examiner sets the remote controller 40 to the height position near the eye to be examined and presses the switch 45, infrared light of a predetermined wavelength for adjusting the target height is emitted from the communication window 40a, and the light is detected. It is detected by the position detection element 32 of the optical system 30. The control unit 10 rotates the motor 29 based on the output of the position detection element 32 so that the target luminous flux (the central luminous flux of the visual target screen) is directed to the eye height position where the remote controller 40 is positioned. Controls driving of vertical rotation (tilt in the vertical direction). Note that the vertical rotation of the beam splitter 26 can also be driven by a manual switch 44.

  Next, a method for allowing the subject to visually recognize the inspection target without moving the line of sight when presenting the inspection target using the horizontal row mask will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7. FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the rotational drive of the beam splitter 26 for presenting the horizontal target in the center in the vertical direction when the horizontal mask is placed on the lower stage, and the optical system is viewed from the side. FIG. In FIG. 6, the optical axis c of the concave mirror 27 located above the beam splitter 26 and the light passing through the centers of the target screen 50 of the target disk plate 20 and the masks of the mask plate 22 coincide with each other. It is drawn schematically as follows.

  In order to make the subject visually inspect the inspection target without moving the line of sight when presenting the inspection target using the horizontal row mask, the beam splitter 26 is rotated in the vertical direction about the rotation axis 28. The rotation angle of the beam splitter 26 at this time is determined based on the arrangement information of the visual target on which the horizontal row of masks are put and the installation information of the light guide optical system. The light guide optical system installation information includes a distance L1 from the eye E to the center of the rotation axis 28 of the beam splitter 26 and an inspection distance L2. The inspection distance L2 is a distance between the virtual image target screen 150 presented by the beam splitter 26, the concave mirror 27, and the like and the eye E to be examined. For example, the installation distance L1 is about 1.24 m, and the inspection distance L2 is 5 m.

  As an example of target arrangement information on which a horizontal row mask is to be applied, the target screen 50 of a clogged target of 3 rows × 5 rows shown in FIG. 7A will be described. In this example, when the upper, middle, and lower targets are individually presented, the horizontal row masks 61a, 61b, and 61c in the mask plate 22 are overlaid, respectively. The centers of the upper and lower targets are arranged at a distance h1 with respect to the center of the intermediate target. FIG. 7B is a virtual image target screen 150 presented at a position of an inspection distance of 5 m by the concave mirror 27, the beam splitter 26, and the like, and a virtual image horizontal line mask 161a corresponding to the horizontal line masks 61a, 61b, 61c. , 161b, 161c are superimposed on the target of the target screen 150, respectively. At this time, the centers of the upper and lower targets (masks 161a and 161c) are assumed to be the distance h2 with respect to the center of the intermediate target (mask 161b).

  If the imaging magnification of the virtual image is β, the distance h1 of the visual target screen 50 and the distance h2 of the virtual image visual target screen 150 have the following relationship.

なお、虚像の結像倍率βは、装置内部の光学系によって設計的に既知の値であり、例えばβ＝１０．３である。また、距離ｈ１は視標の構成で決まっており、横２列×縦２列の視標では約９．４ｍｍ、横３列×縦５列の視標では５．９ｍｍであるとすると、虚像の視標画面上での距離ｈ２は、それぞれ約９６．８ｍｍ、約６０．８ｍｍとなる。

The imaging magnification β of the virtual image is a known value in terms of design by the optical system inside the apparatus, for example, β = 10.3. Further, the distance h1 is determined by the structure of the target, and is assumed to be about 9.4 mm for the target of 2 rows × 2 columns, and 5.9 mm for the target of 3 rows × 5 columns. The distance h2 on the target screen is about 96.8 mm and about 60.8 mm, respectively.

  Here, it is assumed that the rotation angle of the beam splitter 26 is set so that the center light flux of the visual target screen 50 matches the height of the eye E to be examined. In this case, when the horizontal line mask 61 b is put on the middle target on the target screen 50, the eye E can see the middle target on the visual axis A through the presentation window 2. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6, when the horizontal target mask 61 c is hung on the lower target, the lower target with the horizontal target mask 61 c is rotated by rotating the beam splitter 26 in the direction of the arrow F. Can be presented on the visual axis A. When the rotation angle of the beam splitter 26 at this time is α, the following relationship is established among the rotation angle α, the installation distance L1, and the inspection distance L2.

この式により、回転角度αが決定される。なお、設置距離Ｌ１及び検査距離Ｌ２は設計的に既知の値であり、距離ｈ２は、前述のように、虚像の結像倍率βと実際の視標の距離ｈ１とにより求められる。

From this equation, the rotation angle α is determined. The installation distance L1 and the inspection distance L2 are known values in terms of design, and the distance h2 is obtained from the imaging magnification β of the virtual image and the distance h1 of the actual target as described above.

  Further, when the horizontal target 61a is hung on the upper target, the target can be moved on the visual axis A by rotating the beam splitter 26 in the direction opposite to the arrow F direction. The rotation angle α of the beam splitter 26 in this case is also determined in the same manner as described above.

  Since the virtual image target screen 150 is rotated around the rotation axis 28 of the beam splitter 26, the inspection distance L2 on the visual axis A is slightly different before and after the rotation of the beam splitter 26, but the difference is slight. There is no practical problem.

  The above is a method of correcting the vertical displacement when the horizontal line mask (or single character mask) is applied. Preferably, the horizontal displacement is also corrected when the vertical line mask (or single character mask) is applied. Thus, the beam splitter 26 is rotationally driven. In this case, the beam splitter 26 is rotated around an axis centering on the target center optical axis L01 passing through the beam splitter 26. The rotation angle of the beam splitter 26 at this time is determined based on the arrangement information of the target to be covered with the vertical mask and the installation information of the light guide optical system.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the rotational driving of the beam splitter 26 for presenting a vertical target in the center of the left and right when a vertical single-line mask deviated from the center is applied. FIG. In addition, as an example of the target arrangement information on which the vertical mask is to be applied, the target screen 50 of the clogged target of 3 rows × 5 columns will be described with reference to FIG. In this figure, when the left end, center row, and right end visual target rows are individually presented, the vertical row masks 62a, 62b, and 62c in the mask plate 22 are overlaid, respectively. The leftmost and rightmost target rows are arranged at a distance h3 with respect to the target center of the central row. FIG. 9B is a virtual image target screen 150 presented at a position of an inspection distance of 5 m, and vertical image masks 162a, 162b, and 162c corresponding to the vertical masks 62a, 62b, and 62c are the targets. Overlaid on the target of the screen 150. At this time, the optotype centers presented by the vertical row masks 162a and 162c are set to the distance h4 with respect to the optotype centers presented by the vertical row mask 162b, respectively. The distance h4 is obtained by multiplying the distance h3 by the imaging magnification β.

  Then, when the vertical row mask 62a is hung on the leftmost target row, as shown in FIG. 8, by rotating the beam splitter 26 in the arrow R direction (right direction as viewed from the subject) by the rotation angle γ, The leftmost visual target on which the vertical line mask 62a is hung can be moved on the visual axis A. When the distance from the eye E to the rotation center L01 of the beam splitter 26 is L1, and the inspection distance is L2, the rotation angle γ can be obtained by the following equation.

また、右端の視標列に縦一列マスク６２ｃを掛けた場合には、ビームスプリッタ２６を矢印Ｒ方向とは逆方向（被検者から見て左方向）に回転角度γだけ回転させることにより、縦一列マスク６２ｃが掛けられた右端の視標を視軸Ａ上に移動させることができる。

When the vertical row mask 62c is applied to the rightmost target row, the beam splitter 26 is rotated by the rotation angle γ in the direction opposite to the arrow R direction (left direction as viewed from the subject). The rightmost visual target on which the vertical line mask 62c is hung can be moved on the visual axis A.

  Next, an inspection operation using the apparatus having the above configuration will be described. First, the examination distance is set to a predetermined distance (5 m) by positioning the subject at a predetermined position of 1.1 m from the presentation window of the housing 1. Next, in order to input the height position of the eye E, the remote controller 40 is positioned near the eye of the eye E, and the switch 45 is pressed. The position signal transmitted from the communication window 40a by this operation is condensed on the position detection element 32 by the condensing lens 31, and the data on the height position of the eye to be examined is detected (the optical path of the target light passes through the eye of the eye to be examined) For details on the method of adjusting the height, refer to JP-A-7-236612. Based on this position data, the control unit 10 rotates the vertical rotation motor 29 by a corresponding amount. The angle of the beam splitter 26 is changed by the rotation of the vertical rotation motor 29, and the target luminous flux is directed in the height direction of the eye E to be examined.

  After the target luminous flux is accurately incident on the eye to be examined, the examiner operates the remote controller 40 to perform a visual acuity test. When the target to be presented is selected with the switch 42 of the remote controller 40, the type of the selected target is displayed on the liquid crystal display 46 of the remote controller 40, and at the same time, a target selection signal is transmitted from the transmission window 40a to the apparatus main body 1. The target selection signal is received by the transmission / reception unit 4 of the apparatus body 1, and the target selected in the target disk 20 is set in the optical path. For example, it is assumed that the inspection target of the target screen 50 of 3 rows × 5 columns shown in FIG. 7 is selected.

  When the switch 47a or 47b of the remote controller 40 is pressed, the mask plate 22 is rotationally driven by the control unit 10, and the horizontal line mask 61b is put on the middle stage of the presented target screen 50. Next, when the switch 47a is pressed to increase the visual acuity target of the horizontal line mask by one, the upper horizontal line mask 61a is applied. At this time, the control unit 10 drives the motor 29 in response to the signal of the switch 47a, and rotates the beam splitter 26 about the rotation axis 28 by the rotation angle α as shown in FIG. The direction of rotation at this time is opposite to the direction of arrow F in FIG. The rotation angle α is determined by calculation by the control unit 10 according to the above equation (2). The direction of rotation is determined depending on whether it is the upper side or the lower side with respect to the center of the visual target screen 50. The rotation angle α and the rotation direction of the beam splitter 26 determined by the control unit 10 in response to the mask selection switches 43 and 47a are not calculated each time, but in response to a signal from the mask selection switch 47a or 47b. It is also possible to call the one stored in the memory in advance.

  FIG. 10 (a) shows a target presentation state using the upper horizontal row mask in the conventional apparatus when the beam splitter 26 is not rotationally driven. Conventionally, the target with the horizontal row mask is presented so as to be visible above the presentation window 2. In this case, the subject needs to move his line of sight upward. In addition, the subject can easily grasp the contents of the target according to the position of the test target. On the other hand, FIG. 10 (b) shows a target presentation state by the present apparatus, and even when the upper mask 61a is selected, a target with a horizontal line mask is displayed at the top and bottom center of the presentation window. Yes. For this reason, the subject can see the target without moving his / her line of sight, and the fact that the contents of the target are stored according to the position of the target is reduced.

  When the switch 47b is operated to input a signal for applying the lower horizontal mask 61c to present the target at the lower part of the target screen 50, the control unit 10 responds to the signal by the motor 10 29 is driven, and the beam splitter 26 is rotated by the rotation angle α in the direction of arrow F in FIG. As a result, even when the lower horizontal row mask 61c is put on, the inspection target is presented at the center of the presentation window 2 as shown in FIG. FIG. 10C shows the state of the conventional apparatus when the beam splitter 26 is not rotated.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the visual target can be presented in the center even in the visual target presentation using the vertical one-line mask and the single character mask. When the switch 47c for selecting the vertical mask is pressed to apply the vertical one-line mask to the leftmost target column on the target screen 50 of horizontal 3 columns × vertical 5 columns in FIG. The plate 22 is rotated and the left end vertical mask 62a is switched and arranged in the optical path. At the same time, the control unit 10 drives the motor 39 in response to the switch signal, and rotates the beam splitter 26 by an angle γ in the arrow R direction (rightward as viewed from the subject) as shown in FIG. As a result, as shown in FIG. 11 (a), a vertical line of targets conventionally presented on the left side of the presentation window 2 is presented at the center as shown in FIG. 11 (b).

  Further, when the one-character / horizontal mask changeover switch 43 is pressed from the state of the horizontal one-line mask shown in FIG. 10B to select one-character mask, the predetermined one-character mask held by the mask plate 22 is switched into the optical path. In the case of a one-character mask, a signal for moving the mask position can be input by the switches 47a to 47b. Here, for example, it is assumed that the one-character mask is changed so that the upper left target is presented on the target screen 50 of horizontal 3 rows × vertical 5 columns in FIG. In this case, the control unit 10 responds to the selection signal of the one-character mask such as the switch 43, and rotates the beam splitter 26 by the angle α in the direction opposite to the arrow F in FIG. The beam splitter 26 is rotated by an angle γ in the direction of arrow R in FIG. As a result, as shown in FIG. 12A, a one-character target that has been conventionally presented on the upper left of the presentation window 2 is presented at the left and right and top and bottom centers as shown in FIG. 12B. Thereby, in the case of the target presentation of the one-character mask, it is possible to reduce the subject's memorization of the target contents by the presentation position of the target and to avoid a response due to storage. For this reason, a visual acuity test can be performed more accurately.

  The optical system for presenting the target shown in FIG. 2 can be variously modified. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, a configuration in which a concave mirror 27 is disposed behind the beam splitter 26 may be employed. In this optical system, the light beam of the inspection target illuminated by the illumination light source 24 is reflected upward by the mirror 25, further reflected by the beam splitter 26 toward the back concave mirror 27, and then reflected by the concave mirror 27. . The target luminous flux reflected by the concave mirror 27 passes through the beam splitter 26 and then travels toward the eye E through the presentation window 2. In this case, when the target position of the target is moved to the center in the vertical direction when the upper or lower row mask is selected, the vertical splitter driving mechanism 100 is integrated with the beam splitter 26 and the concave mirror 27 (or the entire optical system). The rotary shaft 28 is rotated in the vertical direction. When the target position of the target is moved to the center in the left-right direction when the vertical mask is selected, the beam splitter 26 and the concave mirror 27 are centered on the vertical axis L01 centered on the target light beam passing through the beam splitter 26. (Or the entire optical system) is integrally rotated by the left-right rotation mechanism 101 in the left-right direction. The rotation angle in the vertical direction and the rotation angle in the horizontal direction are determined by the control unit 10 as described above according to the selection signal for the horizontal row mask or the vertical row mask. When a single character mask is selected, the vertical rotation and the horizontal rotation are combined.
