Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of projector technology, and more specifically to a method and apparatus for testing the heat dissipation performance of a projector. Background Technology

[0002] A projector is a device that projects digital images onto a screen. With the continuous development of projector technology (mainly in terms of resolution, brightness, and ease of use), people are becoming more and more accepting of projectors, and their application areas are becoming wider and wider. We can see projectors everywhere, from homes to various public places.

[0003] The heat dissipation performance of a projector is a crucial factor affecting its stability and normal operation. During projector manufacturing, heat dissipation performance is tested to prevent substandard products from reaching consumers. Current technology typically tests projector heat dissipation performance by measuring the absolute temperature of key components using thermocouples or thermistors, comparing these values ​​to design specifications to determine heat dissipation performance. However, this approach ignores the influence of ambient temperature. For example, during testing, if the projector's heat dissipation performance fails to meet requirements and its temperature should be higher, the absolute temperature might be lower due to the low ambient temperature, resulting in inaccurate test results that do not accurately reflect the projector's performance.

[0057] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0058] Example 1

[0059] Reference Figure 1 The present invention discloses a method for testing the heat dissipation performance of a projector, comprising the following steps:

[0060] S101: Obtain the first temperature parameter at the moment when the projector reaches thermal equilibrium in the first scenario;

[0061] S102: Obtain the second temperature parameter at the moment when the projector reaches thermal equilibrium in the second scenario;

[0062] S103: Obtain heat dissipation characteristic parameters based on the first temperature parameter, the second temperature parameter, and preset calculation rules;

[0063] S104: If the heat dissipation characteristic parameters meet the first condition, the heat dissipation performance of the projector is determined to be qualified.

[0064] Specifically, existing LED projectors use red, green, and blue LEDs as their internal light sources, laser projectors use LED beads as their light source, and LCD projectors use bulbs as their light source. This invention uses an LED projector as an example to illustrate the embodiments.

[0065] Specifically, the first temperature parameter and the second temperature parameter are obtained using the temperature sensor 8. In a preferred embodiment, the temperature sensor 8 can be set inside the projector housing 7. In practical applications, in order to improve the accuracy of judgment, a temperature sensor is set on each lamp of the optical engine, and the temperature data is read through the projector.

[0066] Specifically, heat dissipation performance testing is one of a series of tests conducted during the production of a projector. First, it's necessary to determine if the previous test has been completed to ensure the correct procedure is followed. The previous test in this case is white balance calibration, which will not be elaborated upon here. In practical applications, other tests may be used, and this invention does not specifically limit the scope of these tests.

[0067] During the test, first check if there are any previous heat dissipation performance test results. If so, there is no need to repeat the test; otherwise, start the heat dissipation performance test program.

[0068] To initiate the thermal monitoring program, first, turn off the optical engine light source and run the fan at 100% duty cycle for a first time, specifically 15 minutes. After reaching the first thermal equilibrium, obtain and record the red light temperature T0 of the optical engine using temperature sensor 8. Next, turn on the optical engine light source and run the fan at 50% duty cycle for a second time, specifically 20 minutes. After reaching the second thermal equilibrium, obtain and record the red light temperature T1, green light temperature T2, and blue light temperature T3 of the optical engine using temperature sensor 8. It is best to have a certain interval between the second and first thermal equilibrium times; if the interval is too short, the second thermal equilibrium may not be reached.

[0069] In this embodiment, all fans are PWM fans, and the fan speed is adjusted by PWM algorithm. PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is an existing technology, and will not be described in detail here.

[0070] Thermal equilibrium refers to the state where the internal temperature of an object in contact with its surroundings is uniform and equal to the external temperature. At thermal equilibrium, there is no heat exchange between the different parts of the object or between the object and its surroundings. In thermodynamics and chemistry, an object is also said to be in thermal equilibrium if the heat absorbed and released by it in the same amount of time exactly cancels out. In a projector, reaching thermal equilibrium means that the temperature reaches a certain value and then remains essentially stable, with no further large-scale temperature increases, only small-scale temperature fluctuations. In this embodiment, based on the temperature change characteristics of the projector, the criterion for determining whether thermal equilibrium has been reached is defined as follows:

[0071] First thermal equilibrium: The red light temperature data is read every 4 seconds. When the difference between the maximum and minimum red light temperatures for 5 consecutive readings is ≤0.5℃, the projector's internal temperature is considered to have reached thermal equilibrium. The first temperature parameter T0 is recorded and calculated according to formula (1):

[0072] T0 = ​​(T 01 +T 02 +T 03 +T 04 +T 05 ) / 5; (1)

[0073] Among them, T 01 T 02 T 03 T 04 and T 05 These are the temperatures of the red lights obtained by the projector every 4 seconds in the first scene.

[0074] Second thermal equilibrium: Temperature data for the red, green, and blue lights are continuously read every 4 seconds. When the difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures of each light for 5 consecutive readings is ≤0.5℃, the internal temperature of the projector is considered to have reached thermal equilibrium. The second temperature parameters T1, T2, and T3 are recorded and calculated according to formulas (2), (3), and (4):

[0075] T1=(T 11 +T 12 +T 13 +T 14 +T 15 ) / 5; (2)

[0076] T2 = (T 21 +T 22 +T 23 +T 24 +T 25 ) / 5; (3)

[0077] T3 = (T 31 +T 32 +T 33 +T 34 +T 35 ) / 5; (4)

[0078] Among them, T 11 T 12 T 13 T 14 and T 15 These are the temperatures of the red lights obtained by the projector every 4 seconds in the second scene; T 21 T 22 T 23 T 24 and T 25 These are the green light temperatures measured by the projector every 4 seconds in the second scene; T 31 T 32 T 33 T 34 and T 35 These are the blue light temperatures measured by the projector every 4 seconds in the second scene.

[0079] Next, the heat dissipation characteristic parameters △T1, △T2 and △T3 are calculated according to the preset calculation rules; the preset calculation rules are: △T1=|T1-T0|; △T2=|T2-T0|; △T3=|T3-T0|.

[0080] Specifically, after obtaining the heat dissipation characteristic parameters, the heat dissipation performance of the projector is determined according to preset judgment rules. The specific judgment process includes:

[0081] (1) When T0 is greater than 25 o When C, determine whether the heat dissipation characteristic parameters simultaneously satisfy formulas (5), (6), and (7):

[0082] △T1 <T r +(T0-25)*k1+k2; (5)

[0083] △T2 <T g +(T0-25)*k3+k2; (6)

[0084] △T3 <T b +(T0-25)*k1+k2; (7)

[0085] Under these conditions, when the heat dissipation characteristic parameters simultaneously satisfy formulas (5), (6) and (7), the heat dissipation performance of the projector is deemed qualified. For the specific determination structure, please refer to Table 1.

[0086] Table 1 When T0 is greater than 25 o Results of heat dissipation characteristic parameters at time C

[0087]

[0088] (2) When T0 is less than or equal to 25 o When C, determine whether the heat dissipation characteristic parameters simultaneously satisfy formulas (8), (9), and (10):

[0089] △T1 <T r +k2; (8)

[0090] △T1 <T g +k2; (9)

[0091] △T1 <T b +k2; (10)

[0092] Wherein, k1 and k3 are environmental temperature compensation parameters, k2 is an error compensation parameter, and k1, k2, and k3 are all constants less than 1; more preferably, k1 is 0.11, k2 is 0.5, and k3 is 0.1; where T r T g and T b These are the standard temperature characteristic values ​​of the red, green, and blue lights obtained by formulas (11), (12), and (13), respectively.

[0093] T r = (T r1 +T r2 +T r3 +T r4 +T r5 ) / 5; (11)

[0094] T g = (T g1 +T g2 +T g3 +T g4 +T g5 ) / 5; (12)

[0095] T b = (T b1 +T b2 +T b3 +T b4 +T b5 ) / 5; (13)

[0096] Among them, T r1 T r2 T r3 T r4 and T r5 They are at 25 o C represents the temperature of the red light obtained every 4 seconds when the projector reaches thermal equilibrium at room temperature; T represents the temperature of the red light obtained every 4 seconds. g1 T g2 T g3 T g4 and T g5 They are at 25 o C represents the temperature of the green light obtained every 4 seconds when the projector reaches thermal equilibrium at room temperature; T represents the temperature of the green light obtained every 4 seconds. b1 T b2 T b3 T b4 and T b5 They are at 25 o The blue light temperature measured every 4 seconds when the projector reaches thermal equilibrium at room temperature.

[0097] Under this condition, when the heat dissipation characteristic parameters simultaneously satisfy formulas (8), (9) and (10), the heat dissipation performance of the projector is deemed qualified. For the specific determination structure, please refer to Table 2.

[0099]

[0100] Example 2

[0101] Specifically, after completing the above-mentioned projection heat dissipation performance test, the method further includes: if the heat dissipation performance is qualified, storing the last qualified first temperature parameter and second temperature parameter and displaying them on the projector screen; if the heat dissipation performance test is unqualified, storing the last unqualified first temperature parameter and second temperature parameter and displaying them on the projection screen, and at the same time, turning off the projector with unqualified heat dissipation performance and improving the projector's heat dissipation performance until the test is qualified.

[0102] Improving the heat dissipation performance of a projector requires manual operation, which is an existing technology. This may include properly attaching the thermal interface material, locking the heat sink, and properly using foam to construct air ducts. Any operation that can improve the heat dissipation performance of the projector is feasible, and this invention does not limit it.

[0103] Example 3

[0104] Reference Figure 3 This invention discloses a projector device, comprising: an optical engine 1, a motherboard 2, a CPU 3, a fan 4, a motor 5, a heat sink 6, a housing 7, a temperature sensor 8, an air inlet 9, and an air outlet 10.

[0105] During the test, first check if there are any previous heat dissipation performance test results. If so, there is no need to repeat the test; otherwise, start the heat dissipation performance test program.

[0106] To initiate the thermal monitoring program, first, turn off the optical engine light source and run the fan at 100% duty cycle for a first time, specifically 15 minutes. After reaching the first thermal equilibrium, obtain and record the red light temperature T0 of the optical engine using temperature sensor 8. Next, turn on the optical engine light source and run the fan at 50% duty cycle for a second time, specifically 20 minutes. After reaching the second thermal equilibrium, obtain and record the red light temperature T1, green light temperature T2, and blue light temperature T3 of the optical engine using temperature sensor 8. It is best to have a certain interval between the second and first thermal equilibrium times; if the interval is too short, the second thermal equilibrium may not be reached.

[0107] First thermal equilibrium: The red light temperature data is read every 4 seconds. When the difference between the maximum and minimum red light temperatures for 5 consecutive readings is ≤0.5℃, the projector's internal temperature is considered to have reached thermal equilibrium. The first temperature parameter T0 is recorded and calculated according to formula (1):

[0108] T0 = ​​(T 01 +T 02 +T 03 +T 04 +T 05 ) / 5; (1)

[0109] Among them, T01 T 02 T 03 T 04 and T 05 These are the temperatures of the red lights obtained by the projector every 4 seconds in the first scene.

[0110] Second thermal equilibrium: The temperature data of the red, green and blue lights are read every 4 seconds. When the difference between the maximum and minimum temperature of each light for 5 consecutive times is ≤0.5℃, it is determined that the internal temperature of the projector has reached thermal equilibrium.

[0111] Next, the heat dissipation characteristic parameters △T1, △T2 and △T3 are calculated according to the preset calculation rules; the preset calculation rules are: △T1=|T1-T0|; △T2=|T2-T0|; △T3=|T3-T0|.

[0112] Specifically, after obtaining the heat dissipation characteristic parameters, the heat dissipation performance of the projector is determined according to the preset judgment rules. The specific judgment process is the same as in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, and will not be repeated in this embodiment.

[0113] The projector device of this embodiment has the following technical effects: it acquires two sets of temperature data when the optical engine light source reaches thermal equilibrium twice under different fan speeds, calculates the heat dissipation characteristic parameters of the two sets of temperature data according to preset rules, and finally compares them with preset judgment rules to determine whether the heat dissipation performance of the projector is qualified. Since the judgment rules include ambient temperature compensation parameters and system error compensation parameters, it can ensure that the heat dissipation performance of the projector can be detected quickly and accurately even under abnormal ambient temperature conditions, without any manual operation.
