Patent number: 10871622Abstract: A suspension system of a single-axis optical actuator is provided, including an elastic suspension plate in the form of a frame having two opposite ends each extended, through a beveled edge and a bending section, to form a cantilever arm. The elastic suspension plate is provided with a magnetic device on one side thereof. The cantilever arms are supported on a reinforcement frame to carry an optical lens. When an electric current is supplied through a connector to the magnetic device of the actuator, a reciprocal attraction or repulsion force is generated and applied to one side of the elastic suspension plate so that the elastic suspension plate may function as an oscillation member with an imaginary axis line between the two bending sections of the frame body as an axis to carry the optical lens to generate fast and position-constrained oscillation at two sides.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2019Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: MIN AIK TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: King-Sheng Chao, Shih-Po Yeh, Ching-Hsuan Chuang, Wei-Lung Lai

Patent number: 9864180Abstract: An asymmetric curved-surface prismatic image display optical system includes a first prism and second and third prisms respectively arranged in front of and behind the first prism. The first prism includes a light-exiting planar surface that is at an eye-adjacent side and is opposite to a light-entering planar surface of the second prism with an air gap therebetween and may serve as a reference for inspection of a free-form curved surface. The second prism has a light-exiting planar surface at the eye-adjacent side and parallel to a side planar surface of the third prism to allow an external-world image to be seen more clearly. Light from an image displaying panel first enters the first prism and is subjected to total internal reflection by the light-exiting planar surface toward the reflective curved surface to be reflected and re-directed to transmit through the second prism for image formation on a retina.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2016Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: MIN AIK TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: Shih-Po Yeh, Wei-Lung Lai, Hsin-I Chen

Patent number: 7090350Abstract: An optical projection system can receive a red light beam, green light beam, and blue light beam. The optical projection system includes a color-combination prism, and the light beams respectively enter the color-combination prism from three surfaces and are combined into a mixed light beam, which exits from another surface.
