Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the device which can illuminate instantaneously with high brightness and high efficiency by arranging two light sources at conjugate points of a reflecting mirror. CONSTITUTION:The 1st light source 1 and 2nd light source 2 are arranged at the conjugate points of the reflecting mirror 3 and light emitted by either light source is projected from the position of the 2nd light source 2. For example, an elliptic mirror is used as the reflecting mirror 3 and the 1st light source 1 and 2nd light source 2 are arranged at the position of its two focuses to obtain nonaberrational conjugate points. When light sources, such as a halogen lamp and a metal hydride lamp, which differ in kind and compensate their defects are used as the 1st light source 1 and 2nd light source 2 respectively, the features of the both are displayed. Consequently, the high-brightness, high- efficiency device which can be turned on instantaneously is obtained.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to an illumination device for use in liquid crystal projection televisions, slide projectors, and overhead projectors. Conventional technology LCD projection televisions use an LCD panel that acts as a light source. It usually consists of a lens and a screen. This light source is usually a halogen lamp, metal halide lamp, or xenon lamp, which has high brightness and high efficiency. It is hoped that a light source with instant lighting will emerge. Problems to be Solved by the Invention Although short-arc metal halide lamps are suitable as high-intensity, high-efficiency light sources, they take a long time to build up their luminous flux, and do not become bright until several minutes have elapsed after lighting.

The present invention solves the above problems and provides a lighting device that has high brightness, high efficiency, and is capable of instantaneous lighting. Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the two-light source illumination device of the present invention provides +! Intimidation, first
The light flux emitted from the light source is reversed! After being reflected by 't@, the light is arranged so as to be focused at the position of the second light source. In other words, the two light sources are arranged so that they are at conjugate points with respect to the reflecting mirror. Function: As described above, the two-light source illumination device of the present invention achieves high brightness by arranging the two light sources at the conjugate points of the reflecting mirror. This has made it possible to create a lighting device that is highly efficient and can be turned on instantly. For example, the first light source uses a halogen lamp that has high brightness and high efficiency but can be lit instantly, and the second light source uses a metal halide lamp that has high brightness and high efficiency but has shortcomings in instant lighting. Use. When two light sources are turned on at the same time, immediately after turning on, the second light source, the metal halide lamp, which has a long luminous flux startup time, does not emit light, but the light from the first light source, the halogen lamp, is reflected by the reflector, and the second light source As time passes and the light from the metal halide lamp as the second light source becomes stronger, the first light source can be turned off.In this way, in the two-light source lighting device of the present invention, the light from the metal halide lamp as the second light source becomes stronger. It is possible to realize a lighting device that can obtain the brightness required for practical use.

EXAMPLE Hereinafter, a two-light source illumination device according to an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a structural diagram showing an embodiment of the two-light source illumination device of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 1 is a first light source, 2 is a second light source, 3 is a reflecting mirror, and 4 is a light shielding plate for preventing light from the first light source 1 from going forward. The first light source 1 and the second light source 2 are arranged at the conjugate point of the reflecting mirror 3,
The light emitted from either light source will be emitted depending on the position of the second light source. If the reflecting mirror 3 is, for example, an elliptical mirror and a first light source and a second light source are placed at its two focal points, the mirror will become an aberration-free conjugate point. The first light source 1 is a halogen lamp, and the second light source 2 is a metal lamp.
By using different types of light sources that compensate for the shortcomings of each, it is possible to create a lighting system that takes advantage of the strengths of both. FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the two-light source lighting device of the present invention.
This is a diagram. In FIG. 2, 11 is a first light source, 12 is a second light source, 13 is a first reflecting mirror, and 14 is a second reflecting mirror.
The first light source 11 and the second light i1112 are arranged at a conjugate point with respect to the first reflecting mirror l3. The second reflecting mirror 14 is the first light source 1
The first light source 11 is arranged so as to face the first reflecting mirror l3 with the spherical second reflecting mirror l4 in between.
Place. In this way, it is possible to effectively use the first light a11 and the light from the second light source 12.
