Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a projection lens (hereinafter referred to as lens) used in a liquid crystal (LCD, short for Liquid Crystal Display) projector. The liquid crystal projector is mainly composed of an illumination light path and an imaging device, and the LCD and the lens form an imaging component. The illumination light path is composed of a light emitting diode (LED) and other optical devices. Background Art
[0002] According to the display device classification, the current projectors are divided into 3LCD, LCOS, DLP, and single-chip LCD, and the through-type liquid crystal projectors are divided into 3LCD and single-chip LCD. At present, 3LCD liquid crystal projectors have long-focus projection lenses and short-focus projection lenses, and single-chip LCD liquid crystal projectors have a large LCD size, generally between 2.69 and 5.7 inches, so it is difficult to use short-focus projection lenses in the design of single-chip LCD projectors. The present invention invents and implements a short-focus lens on a 3.12-inch LCD, with a projection ratio of 1.25, a focal length of 95mm, F / #2.8, and a full-spherical lens combination. The Fresnel lens that participates in the imaging together has the characteristic of a gradual focal length, so that the TV distortion is less than 0.2%, the transfer function is greater than 50%@14lp / mm, and the high-definition 1080p image quality requirements are met, and the relative illumination is greater than 72%. Summary of the invention
[0003] The present invention is a spherical high-definition lens composed of three lenses of different shapes and different optical properties. It is a large-size LCD projection lens with a spherical solution. Its focal length is 95mm, F / # is 2.8, and the projection ratio is 1.25, which makes up for the lack of short-focus lens application in 3.12-inch single-chip LCD projectors on the market.

Figure 1 As shown, the plastic fasteners for fixing the lenses fix the spherical lenses L1, L2, and L3 in sequence from left to right according to the spacing distance requirements between them.
[0006] When the present invention is used, a 3.12-inch liquid crystal display panel with a resolution of 1920*1080 is used as the object surface of the projection lens to project an image through the present invention.
[0007] When the present invention is used, a Fresnel lens with a length and width of 76mm*47mm and a thickness of 1.60mm is also required.
