Patent number: 11640105Abstract: A projector includes a light source module, a light valve, and a projection lens. The light source module is adapted to provide an illumination light beam and includes a base having first and second side surfaces, first and second color light-emitting units respectively disposed on the first and second side surfaces, and first and second heat dissipation structures respectively connected to the first and second color light-emitting units. The first and second heat dissipation structures are separated from each other and define an accommodation space together. The light valve is located on a transmission path of the illumination light beam and adapted to convert the illumination light beam into an image light beam. The projection lens is located on a transmission path of the image light beam and adapted to project the image light beam.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2021Date of Patent: May 2, 2023Assignee: Coretronic CorporationInventors: Chien-Ming Peng, Yen-Po Chang, Mao-Min Fu, Wei-Min Chien

Publication number: 20220291575Abstract: An optical engine module used in a projection device and configured to generate an image beam includes a housing and a plate. The housing has a surrounding side wall and a bottom wall connected to each other. The bottom wall has a first opening. The surrounding side wall has an off-state beam irradiation zone adjacent to the first opening. The first opening is configured to allow the image beam to exit. The off-state beam irradiation zone is configured to be irradiated by an off-state beam. The plate has a light receiving part and a heat dissipating part. The light receiving part is disposed in the off-state beam irradiation zone. The heat dissipating part passes through the bottom wall and extends out of the housing. A projection device adopting the optical engine module is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2021Publication date: September 15, 2022Inventors: MAO-MIN FU, CHIEN-MING PENG

Patent number: 11256164Abstract: An optical element includes a prism and a light blocking member. The prism has a first surface, a second surface and a third surface. The first surface is connected to the second surface. The third surface is connected between the first and second surfaces and opposite to a light valve of a projection device. The first surface reflects an image light beam from the light valve to allow the image light beam to pass through the second surface. The light blocking member is disposed on the prism and includes a first light blocking portion and a second light blocking portion adjacent to each other. The first light blocking portion shields a part of the first surface adjacent to the second surface, and the second light blocking portion shields a part of the second surface adjacent to the first surface. A projection device using the optical element is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2021Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: Coretronic CorporationInventors: Mao-Min Fu, Hung-Pin Chen, Yen-Po Chang, Chien-Ming Peng

Patent number: 10989991Abstract: An adjustment device for adjusting an up-down displacement of an optical engine module of a projection device includes a bracket, at least one adjustment zone, at least one flexible element, and at least one adjustment element. The bracket is disposed inside the projection device. The at least one adjustment zone is located at the optical engine module. There is a gap between the optical engine module and the bracket. The at least one flexible element is abutted between the bracket and the optical engine module. The at least one adjustment element is movably disposed through the at least one adjustment zone. A distance between the at least one adjustment zone of the optical engine module and the bracket is adjusted by an operation of the at least one adjustment element. A projection device using the adjustment device is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2019Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: Coretronic CorporationInventors: Yun-Sheng Wang, Mao-Min Fu, Yen-Po Chang, Chien-Ming Peng
