a second lens holding member joined to said first lens holding member, and holding said second fly-eye lens; and
a third lens holding member joined to said second lens holding member, and holding an optical lens;
wherein an illumination area is formed as a result of each shape of a lens cell aperture of said first fly-eye lens being projected by said second fly-eye lens and said optical lens to be enlarged, and
said first lens holding member and said second lens holding member are joined to be relatively rotatable about said optical axis.
2. An illumination optical apparatus comprising: a first fly-eye lens having a plurality of lens cells arranged alone two directions orthogonal to each other and to an optical axis;
a second fly-eye lens having a plurality of lens cells arranged along two directions orthogonal to each other and to said optical axis;
a first lens holding member holding said first fly-eye lens;
a second lens holding member joined to said first lens holding member, and holding said second fly-eye lens;
a third lens holding member joined to said second lens holding member, and holding an optical lens;
a first engaging member provided in a portion of said second lens holding member, where the portion faces to said first lens holding member and is aparted from an optical axis by a predetermined distance;
a second engaging member provided in a portion of said second lens holding member, where the portion faces to said third lens holding member and is aparted from an optical axis by a predetermined distance;
a first engaged portion to be engaged with said first engaging member, provided in a portion of said first lens holding member, where the portion faces to said second lens holding member; and
a second engaged portion to be engaged with said second engaging member, provided in a portion of said first lens holding member, where the portion faces to said second lens holding member,
wherein an illumination area is formed as a result of each shape of a lens cell aperture of said first fly-eye lens being projected by said second fly-eye lens and said optical lens to be enlarged.
3. An illumination optical apparatus as set forth in claim 2 , wherein:
said first engaging member and said first engaged portion can be engaged to be rotatable about said optical axis in a predetermined range;
said second engaging member and said second engaged portion to be engaged can be engaged to be rotatable about said optical axis in a predetermined range;
a first fixing portion capable of fixing said first lens holding member and said second lens holding member when said first engaging member and said first engaged portion are in an engaged state is provided; and
a second fixing portion capable of fixing said second lens holding member and said third lens holding member when said second engaging member and said second engaged portion to be engaged are in an engaged state is provided.
4. An illumination optical apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein:
said third lens holding member holds a first lens group and a second lens group, a mirror for bending an optical path being therebetween; and
said first fly-eye lens, said second fly-eye lens, said first lens group, said mirror and said second lens group are arranged along said optical path.
5. A projection type display apparatus, comprising:
a light source emitting an illumination light;
an image display device forming an image by being irradiated with said illumination light;
an illumination optical apparatus irradiating said illumination light from said light source to said image display device; and
a projection optical system projecting an image formed by said image display device; wherein said illumination optical apparatus comprises
a first fly-eye lens having a plurality of lens cells arranged along two directions orthogonal to each other and to said optical axis;
a second fly-eye lens having a plurality of lens cells arranged along two directions orthogonal to each other and to said optical axis;
a first lens holding member holding said first fly-eye lens;
a second lens holding member joined to said first lens holding member, and holding said second fly-eye lens;
a third lens holding member joined to said second lens holding member, and holding an optical lens;
a first engaging member provided in a portion of said second lens holding member, where the portion faces to said first lens holding member and is aparted from an optical axis by a predetermined distance;
a second engaging member provided in a portion of said second lens holding member, where the portion faces to said third lens holding member and is aparted from an optical axis by a predetermined distance;
a first engaged portion to be engaged with said first engaging member, provided in a portion of said first lens holding member, where the portion faces to said second lens holding member;
a second engaged portion to be engaged with said second engaging member, provided in a portion of said first lens holding member, where the portion faces to said second lens holding member; and
an illumination area is formed as a result of each shape of a lens cell aperture of said first fly-eye lens being projected by said second fly-eye lens and said optical lens to be enlarged.
6. A projection type display apparatus as set forth in claim 5 , wherein:
said third lens holding member holds a first lens group and a second lens group, a mirror for bending an optical path being provided therebetween; and
said first fly-eye lens, said second fly-eye lens, said first lens group, said mirror and said second lens group are arranged along said optical path.
7. A projection type display apparatus as set forth in claim 5 , wherein a prism is arranged in an illumination light emission side of said second lens group.
