Method and apparatus for an anti-melt projection lens cap
A method and apparatus for an anti-melt projection lens cap includes a sensor that detects whether the projection lens cap covers the projection lens and transmits a detected signal to the control unit including two control modes. The first one is projecting a dark image immediately, as the projection lens cap covers the projection lens for longer than a first set time, the control unit switches to a power-saving mode, when it lasts longer than a second set time, the lamp and the system power supply are turned off, then, a fan cools the lamp, the control unit switches to a standby mode. The second one is switching to the power-saving mode directly, when it lasts longer than a second set time, the lamp and the system power supply are turned off, and a fan cools the lamp, then, the control unit switches to the standby mode.
1. An apparatus for an anti-melt projection lens cap applied in a projection display device, comprising:
a projection lens;
a projection lens cap, covering said projection lens;
a metal sheet pasted on a surface of said protection lens cap facing said protection lens;
a light sensor disposed on said projection display device near said projection lens, detecting whether said projection lens cap covers said projection lens; and
a control module disposed in said projection display device for receiving a detected signal from said sensor, controlling outputted modes.
2. The apparatus for an anti-melt projection lens cap according to claim 1 , wherein said control module comprises a control unit, a lamp, a fan, a light valve and a system power supply, and said control unit controls the operation of said lamp, said fan, said light valve and said system power supply.
3. An apparatus for an anti-melt projection lens cap applied in a projection display device, comprising:
a projection lens;
a projection lens cap, covering said projection lens;
a sensor disposed in at least a portion of said lens cap, detecting whether said projection lens cap covers said projection lens;
a wireless transmission module disposed inside said sensor for transmitting the detected signal; and
a control module disposed in said projection display device for receiving the detected signal from said wireless transmission module, controlling outputted modes.
4. The apparatus for an anti-melt projection lens cap according to claim 3 , wherein said sensor is a heat sensor.
