Projection display device having a level difference correction section
A projection display device comprises a main body cabinet, a projection lens section to which light modulated by a light modulating element entered, and a mirror section for reflecting the light emitted from the projection lens section to a projection plane. A level difference depending on an arrangement shift of the projection lens section and the mirror section is formed on a second side surface facing a first side surface having light projection port of the main body cabinet. Furthermore, the projection display device comprises a level difference correction section for directing the light from the mirror section in a desired direction by correcting the level difference, when the main body cabinet is planed on a plane to be placed, the second side surface facing the plane to be placed.
1. A projection display device, comprising:
a projection lens section to which light modulated by a light modulating element is entered;
a mirror section for reflecting the light emitted from the projection lens section to a projection plane;
a main body cabinet for accommodating the projection lens section and the mirror section, wherein the main body cabinet includes a first side surface having a light projection port and a second side surface facing the first side surface, and the mirror section is arranged shifted from an optical axis of the projection lens section, and the second side surface is formed to conform to the shifted arrangement of the mirror section with respect to the projection lens section such that the second side surface is at different height levels with respect to a plane on which the second side surface is placed; and
a level difference correction section for changing a height level of the second side surface with respect to the plane on which the second side surface is placed to orient the light from the mirror section in a desired direction, when the main body cabinet is placed on the plane on which the second side surface is placed in a state that the second side surface faces the plane.
2. The projection display device according to claim 1 , wherein the level difference correction section comprises an adjustment jig for finely adjusting an orientation of the light from the mirror section by changing a distance between the second side surface of the main body cabinet and the plane on which the second side surface is placed.
3. The projection display device according to claim 2 , wherein
on the second side surface of the main body cabinet, a protrusion is disposed at a position where the mirror section is disposed, and the main body cabinet rotates with the protrusion acting as a fulcrum point, by adjusting the adjustment jig to change the distance between the second side surface of the main body cabinet and the plane on which the second side surface is placed.
4. The projection display device according to claim 3 , wherein
the adjustment jig is configured so as to change the distance between the second side surface of the main body cabinet and the plane on which the second side surface is placed at two different points, and the protrusion and the adjustment jig are disposed so that the two different points and the protrusion may be positioned at apexes of a triangle.
5. The projection display device according to claim 2 , wherein
the adjustment jig is an adjustment screw disposed so that an end portion thereof contacts with the plane on which the second side surface is placed.
6. The projection display device according to claim 1 , wherein a screw hole for attaching the level difference correction section is formed in the second side surface of the main body cabinet, and the screw hole is commonly used as a screw hole for threading the main body cabinet to a mounting mechanism when the projection display device is used as a ceiling mount type.
