Abstract

PURPOSE: To effectively cool a reflection mirror and a light source without enlarging the whole light source device and to perform temp. control by providing plural minute gaps on the light source insertion opening of the reflection mirror rotary symmetrically related to the rotary shaft of the reflection mirror. CONSTITUTION: A light source hold member 400 is attached to the vicinity of the light source insertion opening of the reflection mirror 3 by adhesives 500. At this time, when the light source hold member 400 is attached to the reflection mirror 3, only a part of the light source insertion opening is shielded, and the minute gaps 600 are formed. Then, though an atmosphere in the vicinity of a light emitting tube 2010 becomes a very high temp. by radiation of a metal halide lamp 2, when an axial flow fan 700 is used in the direction of exhaust, the high temp. atmosphere is led outside of the reflection mirror 3 through the minute gaps 600. That is, by such a constitution, the heated atmosphere inside of the reflection mirror 3 is led to the minute gaps 600, and is exhausted backward of the reflection mirror 3. Thus, a flow of a nearly uniform cooling wind is generated regardless of position in the periphery of the light emitting tube 2010 and the inner surface of the reflection mirror 3.

As a light source used in a liquid crystal projector device or the like, a halogen lamp has been often used.
Halogen lamps have a stable output and are easy to handle because they do not require a lighting circuit, but they have disadvantages such as low light intensity, low luminous efficiency, and short life because they emit light due to the incandescence of the filament. In many cases, it has become difficult to realize the required performance for the light source device as described above.

The arc tube of a short arc type small metal halide lamp is usually fixed to a reflecting mirror by an adhesive as shown in FIG. In FIG. 11, 2 is a metal halide lamp, 2010 is its arc tube, 2011 is a discharge electrode, 2012 is molybdenum foil, 2013 is an external lead wire, and 2014 is a base attached to one side of the arc tube 2010. Further, 3 is a reflecting mirror, 301 is a light reflecting surface, and 302 is a cylindrical portion for fixing the lamp. 5
00 is an adhesive that fills the gap between the tubular portion 302 of the reflecting mirror and the arc tube 2010 and fixes them to each other, and 800 is the rotation axis (optical axis) of the reflecting mirror. The arrangement of the lamp and the reflector is generally determined by the positional relationship between the optical axis of the reflector and the discharge electrode of the lamp.
The optical axis arrangement is roughly classified into two types, that is, the optical axis arrangement and the orthogonal arrangement, and FIG. 11 shows the optical axis arrangement having a large light utilization rate. Arc tube 20
In general, 10 is adjusted to an appropriate position with respect to the reflecting mirror 3, and then a gap 500 between the tubular portion 302 and the arc tube 2010 is filled and fixed with an adhesive agent 500.

By the way, in order to increase the illuminance of the projection screen on the screen, the metal halide lamp 2 is used.
It is necessary to reduce the size of the arc tube 2010 of 1. and bring it closer to the point light source. However, if the arc tube size is reduced, the arc tube 201
The wall load of 0 increases and the tube wall temperature rises. For this reason, the reaction between the constituent material of the arc tube 2010 (quartz glass or the like) and the enclosed metal halide is activated, so that the so-called devitrification phenomenon is promoted, and the reduction rate of the screen illuminance may be accelerated.

When the lamp is turned on, the lower side has a low temperature and the upper side has a high temperature due to a convection phenomenon inside the arc tube 2010.
As a result, in the above structure, the same surface is always exposed to a high temperature, and the devitrification phenomenon occurs only in the upper part of the quartz glass forming the arc tube, and a difference in transparency occurs at the top and bottom of the arc tube 2010, which causes a difference in brightness. The lamp life may be shortened. Further, when the temperature is high, not only the electrode 2011 and the metal 2012 forming the connection portion are oxidized and a part of the metal wire is broken, but also the quartz glass portion may be deformed.

For the above reasons, the light source device such as a light source such as a metal halide lamp and a reflecting mirror has conventionally been provided with a cooling means such as an air circulation fan. However, if it is cooled too much, a sufficient luminous flux of the lamp cannot be obtained, and the emission color is deteriorated due to the change of the spectral characteristic, and further, the transparency of the tube wall is reduced due to the blackening phenomenon due to the sputtering of the enclosed metal. Therefore, it is necessary to appropriately control the temperature of the light source and the reflecting mirror in accordance with their performances and the spatial positional relationship between them.

For example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-29902 proposes a shape of a reflecting mirror 3 having a notch for ventilation of cooling air as shown in FIG. FIG.
The description of the components having the same reference numerals as 1 will be omitted. In the figure, reference numeral 303 is a cut portion of the reflecting mirror.
In this case, cooling using natural convection does not have enough air volume,
Therefore, when using a cooling means such as an air circulation fan, it must be installed at a position that does not interfere with the illumination outside the optical path, and cooling air is supplied from one of the notches along the inner surface of the reflecting mirror or hot air. However, there is a problem in that it is difficult to uniformly cool the periphery of the discharge lamp because the exhaust gas is exhausted. Furthermore, by making a notch, the uniformity of deposition of the multilayer reflective film on the inner surface of the reflecting mirror is sacrificed, and a large fan is used to secure a sufficient air volume. There is also a problem that the sound generated from the sound becomes noise.

Further, according to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-127138, an air guide 701 as shown in FIG. 13 (b) is used, and as shown in FIG.
A method of sending cooling air to the inner surface of the arc tube has been proposed. However, like the above-mentioned conventional example, the cooling air is applied from one of the notches provided in the opening of the reflecting mirror, so that the circumference of the arc tube 2010 is uniformly cooled. It is not only difficult to do so, but there is a problem that the entire light source device becomes large.
