20170363940 · 2017-12-21 · ·

A projection lens includes: first to fifth lenses; a light shielding ring; an aperture stop; and a lens barrel. The light shielding ring is rotated in a circumferential direction of the lens barrel by a rotation mechanism. In a case where an image forming panel is shifted with respect to an optical axis of the projection lens, a part, through which the light passes, is biased in the projection lens, whereby temperature distribution occurs in the lens barrel in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis. The thermal deformation of the high temperature side of the lens barrel due to the temperature distribution is greater than that on the low temperature side. The respective lenses may be tilted due to thermal deformation. By rotating the light shielding ring through the rotation mechanism, the temperature increases uniformly in the circumferential direction of the light shielding ring.
