Projection device and method for operating a projection device

1. A projection device, comprising a base, a support and a projection head, the support being rotatable relative to the base and relative to the projection head, wherein:

a light guide system is accommodated in the support,

at least one wavelength-converting luminophore for converting at least part of a light beam generated by the at least one light source is accommodated in the projection head, and

the projection head comprises at least one micromirror which directs at least part of the light falling from the support into the projection head onto the at least one wavelength-converting luminophore, the micromirror being arranged in a wavelength-converted light beam radiated back from the associated luminophore.

2. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , at least one primary light generating unit being accommodated in the base.

3. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , the support being rotatable relative to the base in a first plane and relative to the projection head in a plane perpendicular thereto.

4. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , the light guide system comprising at least one mirror in the support.

5. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , the light guide system comprising at least one optical waveguide in the support.

6. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , the projection head comprising at least one dichroic mirror which directs at least part of the light from the support fed into the projection head to the at least one wavelength-converting luminophore, wherein the at least one dichroic mirror is transparent to the light which is wavelength-converted by the luminophore.

7. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , a plurality of wavelength-converting luminophores which convert incident light into light of a respective different wavelength being accommodated in the projection head.

8. The projection device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein a plurality of wavelength-converting luminophores is accommodated in the projection head and only wavelength-converted light can be emitted from the projection head.

9. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , a light guide rod being arranged in front of at least one luminophore.

10. The projection device as claimed in claim 9 , the at least one luminophore being mounted at an end face of the light guide rod.

11. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , the luminophores being arranged on a rotating disk or on a linearly movable strip.

12. The projection device as claimed in claim 1 , the projection device being configured as a room illumination unit, a beamer, a moving-head spotlight, an automobile headlamp or as an operating light.

13. A method for operating a projection device, comprising at least the following steps:

feeding light into a support which is rotatably connected to a base;

conducting the light through the support;

transmitting the light fed into the support to a projection head which is rotatably connected to the support;

conversion, with at least one wavelength-converting luminophore accommodated in the projection head, of at least part of the light transmitted into the projection head into at least one wavelength-converted light;

directing, with at least one micromirror in the projection head, at least part of the light fed from the support into the projection head onto the at least one wavelength-converting luminophore, the at least one micromirror being arranged in a wavelength-converted light beam radiated back from the associated luminophore, and

output of at least the wavelength-converted light from the projection head.
