  • Patent number: 10534187
    Abstract: A light path adjustment mechanism includes a carrier, an optical plate member, a support, a first axis, a second axis, a first actuator and a second actuator. The carrier includes an inner frame and an outer frame, the optical plate member is disposed on the inner frame and has a reflective surface and an opposite surface opposite the reflective surface. The first axis is disposed between the inner frame and the outer frame, and the second axis is disposed between the outer frame and the support. The first actuator and the second actuator are disposed on one side of the carrier facing away from the reflective mirror, and the opposite surface of the reflective mirror and the first axis are spaced at a distance.

  • Publication number: 20090168030
    Abstract: A display is provided including a light source, a light valve, a projection lens, a first planer reflector, a second planer reflector, a curved reflector and a projection plane. The light source is capable of emitting a light beam. The light valve is disposed on a light path of the light beam to transform the light beam into an image light beam. The projection lens is disposed on a light path of the image light beam. The first planer reflector reflects the image light beam from the projection lens. The second planer reflector reflects the image light beam from the first planer reflector. The curved reflector reflects the image light beam from the second planer reflector. The image light beam from the curved reflector is projected on the projection plane to form a projection image.

  • Patent number: 7405892
    Abstract: A lens module including a base, a sleeve, a lens, a magnetic permeable column, a coil supporter, a coil, and a magnet set is provided. A bottom of the base has a plurality of bumps. The sleeve is rotatably disposed on the bumps. The lens is disposed in the sleeve, and the magnetic permeable column is disposed beside the sleeve. The coil is disposed between two holes of the coil supporter. The magnetic permeable column is disposed through the holes and the coil. The magnet set is disposed beside the coil. The sleeve has a plurality of step portions and each bump contacts the corresponding step portion. When a current is provided to the coil, the electromagnetic force produced between the coil and the magnet set moves the coil along the magnetic permeable column, to push the coil supporter and accordingly rotate the sleeve coupled with the coil supporter.

  • Publication number: 20070274699
    Abstract: A lens module including a guide set, a lens set, a magnet and an electromagnetic winding set is provided. The lens set is movably disposed on the guide set, and the magnet is disposed on the lens set. The electromagnetic winding set is disposed at the side of the lens set and adjacent to the magnet. The electromagnetic winding set and the magnet are suitable for generating an electromagnetic force for controlling the movement of the magnet. By the movement of the magnet, the lens set is driven to move along the guide set.

  • Patent number: 7192142
    Abstract: A wall hanging apparatus for a projection apparatus comprises a fixing seat installed at the lower surface of the projection apparatus, supporting arm whose lower end is fixed on the surface of the fixing seat and reflection mirror fixed at the upper end of the supporting arm and corresponded to a projection lens of the projection apparatus. Whereby, the projection apparatus can have both the portability of a prone type projection apparatus and space saving characteristic of a ceiling hanging type projection apparatus and can be used in an indoor space with a lower height to allow the usage of the projection apparatus is diversified. And, a trapezoid deformation of an image caused from the deviation of the angle of incidence can be modified effectively and quickly by adjusting the angle of the reflection mirror.

  • Publication number: 20060238725
    Abstract: A projection apparatus includes a casing having a first surface, a modular device having a second surface, and a tongue member complementing with the first surface and protruding outwardly from the second surface. The tongue member has an approximate section and a distal section with a cross-section greater than a cross-section of the approximate section. A U-shaped resilient member has a lower portion fixed securely on the first surface of the casing, and an upper portion defining an entrance with a width smaller than a width of the distal section of the tongue member. The distal section of the tongue member is inserted into the U-shaped resilient member via the entrance so as to mount the second surface of the modular device on the first surface of the casing.
