  • Patent number: 11360372
    Abstract: A projector includes a first light source, a second light source, a collimating lens, a wavelength conversion module and a dichroic mirror. The first light source and the second light source respectively emit a first illumination beam and a second illumination beam. The collimating lens includes a first part and a second part and configured to receive and transmit the first illumination beam. The wavelength conversion module receives the first illumination beam from the first part, and generates an excitation beam transmitted toward the first part and the second part. The dichroic mirror corresponds to the first part, and configured to reflect the first illumination beam and the second illumination beam respectively to different directions for projecting the first illumination beam onto the first part and to be passed by the excitation beam.

  • Patent number: 11042080
    Abstract: A light source module includes first to third light sources respectively providing first, second and third lights, first and second wavelength conversion layers, first and second auxiliary light sources respectively providing first and second auxiliary lights, and a dichroic member. The first wavelength conversion layer is excited by the first light and the first auxiliary light from different sides to generate a first conversion light. The second wavelength conversion layer is excited by the second light and the second auxiliary light from different sides to generate a second conversion light. The dichroic member allows the first and second auxiliary lights to transmit therethrough and reflects the first and second conversion lights. The third light transmits through the dichroic member. The first and second conversion lights and the third light are different in wavelength ranges and combined to form an illumination light.

  • Publication number: 20200192203
    Abstract: An optical module includes a light source, a phosphor wheel, a first driving unit, a color wheel, a second driving unit, a third driving unit and a control unit. The phosphor wheel includes a phosphor area. The color wheel includes a plurality of sector-shaped filters. At least one of the sector-shaped filters includes a plurality of filter areas. Central angles of the filter areas are identical. Colors of at least two adjacent filter areas are different. The control unit selectively controls one of the first driving unit and the second driving unit by a delay time to control an overlap ratio between the phosphor area and one of the filter areas. The control unit selectively controls the third driving unit to drive the color wheel to move with respect to the phosphor wheel, so as to move one of the filter areas to a position corresponding to the phosphor area.

  • Publication number: 20150189713
    Abstract: A light source module and a light-emitting control method are disclosed. The light source module includes light-emitting devices which periodically emit light by a period. The period includes time intervals corresponding to the light-emitting devices, respectively. The light-emitting control method includes driving each light-emitting device to emit light by an individual main power during its corresponding time interval, and driving each light-emitting device to emit light by a corresponding auxiliary power during each of the time intervals other than its corresponding time interval.
