  • Patent number: 7055960
    Abstract: A rear projection display device includes an image generator, a reflector, a screen and a light shield disposed between the reflector and the screen. The image engine emits image beams among which ineffective ones are blocked by the light shield while effective ones are reflected on the screen via the reflector, thereby increasing the image forming performance of the displace device. The light shield is mounted on an adjusting device having an adjusting element. After the rear projection display device has been assembled, an angle and position of the light shield can be adjusted by means of rotating the adjusting element to further help the light shield to block the ineffective beams.

  • Patent number: 6947191
    Abstract: An adjustment apparatus of a reflection mirror is disclosed, the apparatus comprising a holding base plate, an affixing block affixed on the holding base plate, at least one adjusting set, and a rotatable chassis affixed onto the affixing block, wherein the reflection mirror is affixed on the rotatable chassis. Moreover, the adjusting set comprises an adjusting screw and an adjusting spring. The adjusting screw is mounted onto the holding base plate and transpierces the holding base plate to fix an extending portion of the rotatable chassis. The adjusting spring associated with the adjusting screw supports an extending portion of the rotatable chassis to counterbalance the adjustments in the adjusting screw. When the adjusting screw is rotated in, the rotatable chassis rotates along a first direction and compresses the adjusting spring. When the adjusting screw is rotated out, the rotatable chassis rotates along an opposite direction to the first direction and stretches the adjusting spring.
