  • Patent number: 10782604
    Abstract: A projection-type video display apparatus includes: light sources, an illumination optical system, a display element, and a projection optical system. The illumination optical system includes: a mirror that reflects the illumination light toward the display element; a lens that is placed between the mirror and the display element on an optical path of the illumination light; a mirror angle adjustment mechanism that adjusts an angle of the mirror; a light-shielding plate that blocks unwanted light which is a portion of the illumination light reflected off the mirror toward the display element via the lens; and a light-shielding plate movable mechanism that is able to move the light-shielding plate between a first position to block the unwanted light and a second position to permit the unwanted light to illuminate the display element.

  • Patent number: 10133159
    Abstract: Provided is a projection type image display device including an antivibration device 4 suppressing a vibration of a projection lens 2. The antivibration device 4 includes an antivibration base fixed to a display device body 1 and a friction sliding mechanism 8 provided on the antivibration base. The friction sliding mechanism 8 attenuates a vibration of the projection lens 2 by causing a lens-side sliding member 14 moving in synchronization with the projection lens 2 and a base-side sliding member 11 corresponding to a part of the antivibration base to contact each other in a pressed state so that both sliding members 14 and 11 frictionally slide on each other.
