  • Patent number: 5662402
    Abstract: A projector with a detachable liquid crystal panel. A lamp emits a certain amount of focused source light rays. A reflector reflects the focused source rays of the lamp into uniform spread light rays. A planar reflector reflects the spread light rays of the reflector into planar light rays. A Fresnel lens focuses the planar light rays of the planar reflector. A detachable LCD panel section rotatingly transmits the incident focused light rays from the Fresnel lens in accordance with a picture data to be displayed. An image-forming optical system for forming images from the incident light rays incoming from the LCD panel section. A small LCD panel is detachably formed in an LCD projector. Thus, if the surrounding illumination is bright, pictures can be viewed by attaching the LCD panel to an LCD TV. If the pictures are to be watched through a large screen, the LCD panel is attached to the LCD projector so as to magnify the pictures.

  • Patent number: 5497207
    Abstract: An overhead projector that irradiates light onto an object or a sheet of paper, focuses the light reflected therefrom with a focusing lens, isolates ultraviolet or infrared rays having a specific wavelength among the focused light via a filter, forms an image by irradiating the isolated light onto an image former, and projects the image onto a projection screen by irradiating visible light onto the image former whereby the image is enlarged and projected via a projection lens to thereby obtain a more clear image.
