DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0025] An embodiment of the invention will be described in detail below with reference to drawings.
[0026] As shown in
[0027] As shown in
[0028] Further, the image display surface 1 and the optical path deflecting means 2 are disposed on the same side as the driver (observer) 7 and on the side opposite to the first mirror 3 with respect to luminous flux that travels toward the aperture 5 from the second mirror 4, and the image display surface 1 is disposed on the side opposite to the second mirror 4 with respect to luminous flux that travels toward the first mirror 3 from the optical path deflecting means 2.
[0029] In regard to the image display surface 1, the image display surface 1 of
[0030] Further, the optical path deflecting means 2 may have power and may not have power. Furthermore, the optical path deflecting means is not limited to a mirror, and other reflective members, such as a prism, can be used as the optical path deflecting means.
[0031] Moreover, the light-blocking member is formed as a housing of the device that covers all of the image display surface 1, the optical path deflecting means 2, the first mirror 3, and the second mirror 4. In
[0032] In a case in which the image display surface 1 is close to the first mirror 3 in this structure, light applied from the outside is likely to be applied to the image display surface 1 and the first mirror 3 requires high power. For this reason, there are problems that the volume of an optical system is increased due to an increase in the curvature of the mirror and image quality deteriorates due to an increase in aberration. In a case in which a distance between the image display surface 1 and the first mirror 3 is increased to avoid the problems, there is a problem that the size of the device is increased.
[0033] For this reason, since the optical path deflecting means 2 is disposed between the image display surface 1 and the first mirror 3 to bend an optical path between the image display surface 1 and the first mirror 3 as in the head-up display device 10 of this embodiment, the dimension of a space, which is required for the arrangement of the image display surface 1, the optical path deflecting means 2, and the first mirror 3, in a front-rear direction (a direction orthogonal to the direction of an optical path of display light between the second mirror 4 and the image reflective surface 6 in a case in which the direction of the optical path of display light between the second mirror 4 and the image reflective surface 6 is set to a vertical direction) can be reduced even in a case in which the length of the optical path between the image display surface 1 and the first mirror 3 is made long.
[0034] Further, since the image display surface 1 and the optical path deflecting means 2 are disposed on the same side as the driver (observer) 7 and on the side opposite to the first mirror 3 with respect to luminous flux traveling toward the aperture 5 from the second mirror 4 and the image display surface 1 is disposed on the side opposite to the second mirror 4 with respect to luminous flux traveling toward the first mirror 3 from the optical path deflecting means 2, it is difficult for light incident from the aperture 5 to be directly applied to the image display surface 1. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the deterioration of image quality that is caused by stray light.
[0035] Furthermore, since the image display surface 1 is disposed in a space between the optical path deflecting means 2 and the upper surface of the light-blocking member in the vertical direction, the height of the entire head-up display device 10 can be reduced.
[0036] According to the above description, the head-up display device 10 of this embodiment can be a head-up display device that has a small size and high image quality.
[0037] In a case in which the direction of the optical path of the display light between the second mirror 4 and the front window (image reflective surface) 6 is set to the vertical direction, a side corresponding to the second mirror 4 is set to a lower side, and a side corresponding to the image reflective surface 6 is set to an upper side, it is preferable that an upper end portion of the light-blocking member, which is closer to the observer 7 than the aperture 5, is positioned above the upper end of the first mirror 3 in the head-up display device 10 of this embodiment.
[0038] In a case in which this structure is applied, since the apparent size of the aperture 5 viewed from the observer 7 is reduced or the aperture 5 viewed from the observer 7 becomes a blind spot, it is difficult for light reflected from a transparent plate, which is usually provided in the aperture 5, to reach the observer 7. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the display contrast of the virtual image 8 from being reduced.
[0039] Further, as in a head-up display device 10a shown in
[0040] Here, the image display device 20 may be adapted so that an image display surface 1 of
[0041] In a case in which this structure is applied, it is advantageous to have a reduction in the size of the entire head-up display device 10. Further, since electrical components, such as the light source serving as a heat source and the image display element, are concentrated on the upper portion of the entire head-up display device 10, heat is easily exhausted. Accordingly, it is difficult for a reflective optical system, which is positioned behind the image display surface 1, to be affected by heat.
[0042] Furthermore, an image displayed on the image display element may be temporarily projected to a diffusion member, such as a diffuser, to widen the range of the pupil position of the observer 7 in which a virtual image can be appropriately observed (eye box). In this case, as in a head-up display device 10b shown in
[0043] In this case, it is preferable that all of the light source, the image display element 21, and the projection optical system 22 are disposed between the optical path deflecting means 2 and the upper end portion of the light-blocking member, which is closer to an observer 7 than the aperture 5, in the vertical direction. In a case in which this structure is applied, as described above, it is advantageous to have a reduction in the size of the entire head-up display device 10 and it is difficult for a reflective optical system, which is positioned behind the image display surface 1, to be affected by heat.
[0044] Further, as in a head-up display device 10c shown in
[0045] Even in a case in which this structure is applied, as described above, it is advantageous to have a reduction in the size of the entire head-up display device 10 and it is difficult for a reflective optical system, which is positioned behind the image display surface 1, to be affected by heat.
[0046] Next, Examples of numerical values of the head-up display device of the invention will be described. First, a head-up display device of Example 1 will be described.
[0047] Table 1 shows data regarding dimensions. Here, Table 1 shows values of FOV (Field Of View) [horizontal direction H?vertical direction V](?), an eye box size (mm?mm), a virtual image distance (mm), and an image display region (mm?mm).
[0048] Table 2 shows arrangement coordinate data of the respective elements of the head-up display device. Here, a combination of an absolute coordinate system that has the center of the image display surface 1 shown in
[0049] The local coordinate systems will be set as described below. An origin and a Z-axis component vector of each local coordinate system are expressed as (x,y,z) and (i,j,k) in the absolute coordinate system, respectively. Further, a plane (X-Y plane), which passes through the origin of each local coordinate system and is orthogonal to a Z axis, is referred to as a reference plane of each element, and a normal vector N of each reference plane corresponds to the Z axis of the local coordinate system. Furthermore, an X axis is orthogonal to a display plane of
[0050] Further, the first mirror 3, the second mirror 4, and the image reflective surface (windshield) 6 are reflective surfaces having power, and data regarding free-form surface coefficients of the respective surfaces are shown in Table 3. The free-form surface coefficient is the value of a rotationally asymmetric aspheric surface coefficient C(i,j) of a free-form surface equation expressed as the following equation. A rotationally asymmetric aspheric surface coefficient, which is not particularly written in Table 3, is 0.
[0051] where, X, Y, Z: coordinates using surface vertexes as origins
[0052] C(i, j): rotationally asymmetric aspheric surface coefficient (i+j=k, k=1 to 10)
