[0023] The present invention provides a display light machine, wherein the display light machine can be a VR (Virtual Reality) display light machine or an AR (Augmented Reality) display light machine.

[0024] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the display light machine comprises: The display module 100 has a display area 110; A fixed lens 210 is disposed corresponding to the display area 110 and fixed relative to the display module 100; A movable lens 310 is disposed corresponding to the display area 110 and is movable relative to the display module 100; and A driving member 400, used for driving the movable lens 310 to move; Wherein, at least one of the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 is a convex lens.

[0025] In the technical solution of the present invention, at least one of the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 is set as a convex lens, which can converge the light emitted from the display area 110 downstream of the optical path of the display area 110, so that the human eye can receive the output light of the display light machine. The present invention can drive the movable lens 310 to move relative to the display module 100 through the driving member 400. Since the fixed lens 210 and the display module 100 are relatively fixed, the movable lens 310 can also move relative to the fixed lens 210, thereby changing the diopter of the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 lens group, so that the diopter of the lens group can be changed by adjusting the distance between the movable lens 310 and the fixed lens 210 to match the user's vision. Without increasing the volume of the device, the diopter requirements of users with different vision conditions can be met, which is conducive to miniaturization of the head-mounted display device and further to ensure the user's experience.

[0026] Without loss of generality, the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 may be provided with one piece or multiple pieces. Taking the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 as an example, the refractive power of the lens assembly formed by the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 is and the diopter of the fixed lens 210 , the diopter of the movable lens 310 , the distance between the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 The following relations are satisfied:

[0027] If both the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 are convex lenses, the diopter of both is positive, and the diopter of the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 are both positive. For reference, add spacing , which will make Reduce, adapt to myopia; reduce spacing , which will make Enlarged to suit people with farsightedness.

[0028] If one of the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 is a convex lens and the other is a concave lens, the diopter of the two is one positive and the other negative, and the product of the diopter of the two is a negative value. For reference, add spacing , which will make Increase to suit people with long-sightedness; reduce spacing , which will make . Reduced, suitable for myopic people.

[0029] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 4The display optical machine further comprises a fixed bracket 220 and a movable bracket 320, wherein the fixed lens 210 is mounted on the fixed bracket 220, and the movable lens 310 is mounted on the movable bracket 320, wherein the movable bracket 320 and the fixed bracket 220 are connected rotatably and axially movable, and the driving member 400 is configured as a knob and is relatively fixed to the movable bracket 320. In this way, the driving member 400 can change the distance between the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 by driving the movable bracket 320 to rotate relative to the fixed bracket 220 and to move axially, thereby adjusting the diopter of the lens group composed of the two to adapt to the user's vision. Specifically, by rotating the driving member 400, while driving the movable bracket 320 to rotate relative to the fixed bracket 220, the movable bracket 320 can move axially relative to the fixed bracket 220, thereby changing the axial distance between the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310. Of course, in other embodiments, the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310 may be installed on the same bracket, and the driving member 400 directly drives the movable lens 310 to move axially.

[0030] In one embodiment, see Figures 2 to 4 , the movable bracket 320 is connected to the fixed bracket 220 by a threaded connection. In this way, the movable bracket 320 can be rotated by the driving member 400 to change the axial distance between the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310. Specifically, the movable bracket 320 is driven by the driving member 400 to rotate in the direction close to the display area 110, which will reduce the axial distance between the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310. The movable bracket 320 is driven by the driving member 400 to rotate in the direction away from the display area 110, which will increase the axial distance between the fixed lens 210 and the movable lens 310. Of course, in other embodiments, one of the movable bracket 320 and the fixed bracket 220 can be provided with a sliding protrusion, and the other can be provided with a sliding groove extending in the circumferential direction and inclined relative to the axial direction. Through the cooperation of the sliding protrusion and the sliding groove, when the driving member 400 drives the movable bracket 320 to rotate, the movable bracket 320 can simultaneously move axially relative to the fixed bracket 220.

[0031] Without loss of generality, see Figures 2 to 4 The fixed bracket 220 is provided with an internal thread on the side of the fixed lens 210 away from the display module, and the movable bracket 320 is correspondingly provided with an external thread. The movable bracket 320 extends into the fixed bracket 220 and is connected through the external thread and the internal thread. Of course, the fixed bracket 220 may also be provided with an internal thread and the movable bracket 320 may be provided with an external thread.

[0032] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 4, one end of the movable bracket 320 is inserted into the fixed bracket 220, the driving member 400 is sleeved on the other end of the movable bracket 320 and sleeved on the outer peripheral side of the fixed bracket 220, and a positioning and matching structure is provided between the driving member 400 and the fixed bracket 220. In this way, when the driving member 400 is rotated, the driving member 400 can be positioned and matched with the fixed bracket 220 at different angles, that is, it can form multiple adjustment gears for the convenience of user adjustment. After the adjustment is in place, the movable bracket 320 and the driving member 400 can also be maintained at the current gear through the positioning and matching structure, thereby ensuring the adjustment reliability of the driving member 400.

[0033] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 5 , between the inner circumference of the driving member 400 and the outer circumference of the fixed bracket 220, one is provided with a positioning straight groove 221 extending in the axial direction, and the other is provided with a positioning convex portion 411, and at least one of the positioning straight groove 221 and the positioning convex portion 411 is distributed in a plurality in the circumferential direction, and one positioning convex portion 411 is correspondingly engaged with one positioning straight groove 221. Taking the case where there are a plurality of positioning straight grooves 221 as an example, when the driving member 400 is rotated, since the movable bracket 320 will rotate and move axially relative to the fixed bracket 220 at the same time, after the positioning convex portion 411 slides from one positioning straight groove 221 to another positioning straight groove 221, the axial position of the positioning convex portion 411 relative to the positioning straight groove 221 can also change, ensuring that the driving member 400 can shift the movable bracket 320, and when the position of the movable bracket 320 is adjusted to the right position, the positioning convex portion 411 can engage with the current positioning straight groove 221, so that the movable bracket 320 can be stably in the current position. In addition, when the user rotates the driving member 400, the positioning protrusion 411 slides into or out of the positioning straight groove 221, which can give the user a certain hand feeling feedback, so that the user can adjust conveniently and reliably. Of course, in other embodiments, multiple spaced magnetic suction parts can also be provided, and the gear switching can be achieved by switching the cooperation of the magnetic suction parts.

[0034] Specifically, see Figures 3 to 5 The outer circumference of the fixing bracket 220 is evenly spaced with a plurality of positioning straight grooves 221, and the inner circumference of the driving member 400 is radially oppositely provided with two positioning convex portions 411. In this way, in each gear position, two positioning convex portions 411 cooperate with the positioning straight grooves 221 to play a positioning role, which can enhance the hand-feel feedback effect and improve the reliability of positioning.

[0035] In one embodiment, see Figures 3 to 5, the driving member 400 has an elastic portion 410, and the positioning protrusion 411 is arranged on the elastic portion 410. In this way, after the positioning protrusion 411 slides out of the positioning straight groove 221, the elastic portion 410 can be deformed to reduce the pressing force between the positioning protrusion 411 and the peripheral wall of the fixing bracket 220 outside the positioning straight groove 221, thereby reducing the friction force that the driving member 400 needs to overcome when rotating relative to the fixing bracket 220, so that the user can rotate the driving member 400 more labor-saving and conveniently. After the positioning protrusion 411 slides back into the positioning straight groove 221, the elastic portion 410 can restore the deformation and can be maintained in this state, so that the positioning protrusion 411 can be stably engaged with the positioning straight groove 221. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to set an arc groove between adjacent positioning straight grooves 221 to guide and cooperate with the positioning protrusion 411.

[0036] In one embodiment, see Figures 3 to 5 , corresponding to one of the elastic parts 410, the driving member 400 is provided with two through slots 420 extending in the axial direction, and the through slots 420 penetrate the end side of the driving member 400 facing the display area 110, and the elastic part 410 is formed between the two through slots 420. That is, by providing two through slots 420, the wall between the two through slots 420 has the ability to deform, thereby forming an elastic part 410 similar to an elastic buckle structure. The positioning protrusion 411 is arranged near the end side through which the through slot 420 penetrates, and the elastic part 410 here has a greater deformation ability, so that the user can rotate the driving member 400 more effortlessly. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning protrusion 411 and the inner peripheral wall of the driving member 400 may also be connected by a spring, and the spring is also the elastic part 410.

[0037] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The outer periphery of the movable bracket 320 is provided with a fixing convex portion 321, and the driving member 400 is provided with a mounting groove 440 correspondingly, and the fixing convex portion 321 is fixed in the mounting groove 440. In this way, the fixed connection between the movable bracket 320 and the driving member 400 can be achieved. The mounting groove 440 has a notch on the side facing the display module 100, so that the fixing convex portion 321 can be inserted into the mounting groove 440. The fixing convex portion 321 can be fixed in the mounting groove 440 by means of glue injection, or by means of wedge surface matching, so that the fixing convex portion 321 can be engaged in the mounting groove 440. Of course, in other embodiments, the driving member 400 and the movable bracket 320 can also be fixed by screw locking.

[0038] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 4, the movable bracket 320 is also equipped with a flat mirror 330. The flat mirror 330 can be used to fold the optical path to make the optical path more compact, which is conducive to improving the miniaturization of the display light machine, and can also help correct certain types of aberrations, reduce chromatic aberration or other optical distortions, and improve the overall image quality. Specifically, the driving member 400 is provided with a avoidance port 430, and the flat mirror 330 is installed at the port of the movable bracket 320 away from the fixed bracket 220, and is located at the position of the avoidance port 430. In this way, while the mirror group is covered and protected by the flat mirror 330, the flat mirror 330 will not block the light path, that is, it will not affect the light emission of the display light machine.

[0039] The present invention also proposes a head-mounted display device, which includes a display optical machine. The specific structure of the display optical machine refers to the above embodiment. Since the head-mounted display device adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here one by one.

[0040] The above description is only an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
