Projection-type display apparatus
First Claim
1. A projection-type display apparatus that projects an image onto a screen to perform image display, the projection-type display apparatus comprising:
- at least one light source that emits a coherent light;
an illuminating optics that propagates a light flux emitted from the light source on a predetermined optical path to guide the light flux to the screen;
a light valve that forms the image to be displayed on the screen in an illuminated area that is illuminated by the light flux guided by the illuminating optics; and
a projection optics that magnifies and projects the image, which is formed in the illuminated area of the light valve, onto the screen, whereinthe illuminating optics comprising a first diffusion unit that diffuses the propagated light flux and is arranged on the optical path near a conjugated position with the light valve, anda light intensity equalizing device that equalizes intensity distribution of the light flux emitted from the light source, anda conjugated position with the light valve is near an exit surface of the light intensity equalizing device.

Abstract
A projection-type display apparatus that projects an image on a screen and performs image display includes at least one laser source that emits a coherent light beam, an illuminating optics that propagates the light beam emitted from the laser source into a predetermined optical path to guide the light beam to the screen, a reflective optical modulator that forms the image to be displayed on the screen on an illuminated surface illuminated by the light beam guided by the illuminating optics, and a projection optics that magnifies and projects the image formed on the illuminated surface of the reflective optical modulator on the screen. The illuminating optics includes a diffusion device, which diffuses the propagated light beam, and is arranged on a light propagation path near a conjugated position with the reflective optical modulator.
