20090141249 | PROJECTOR - A projector includes: an optical component disposed inside a closed structure having air flow path through which air flows; and a circulating fan which circulates air. The closed structure includes: an optical component housing which accommodates the optical component; a duct which introduces air into the optical component housing, and introduces the air having flowed to the outside from the inside of the optical component housing again toward the inside of the optical component housing; and a plurality of heat exchangers each of which has a heat receiving side heat transfer member which faces the inside of the closed structure, and a heat releasing side heat transfer member which faces the outside of the closed structure. The plural heat exchangers are disposed in the air flow direction along the air flow path through which air flows to the outside from the inside of the optical component housing. | 06-04-2009 |
20090237619 | LIQUID-COOLING DEVICE AND PROJECTOR - In at least one embodiment of the disclosure, a liquid-cooling device to cool an optical element in a projector includes an optical element holding member configured to allow a flow of a cooling liquid therein and to hold the optical element so as to transfer heat to the cooling liquid. A liquid pumping unit is configured to circulate the cooling liquid. Liquid circulation members are configured to connect the optical element holding member and the liquid pumping unit and to define a flow channel of the cooling liquid. A thermoelectric conversion element has a heat-absorbing surface and a heat-radiating surface. The thermoelectric conversion element is connected to the liquid-cooling device to transfer the heat from the cooling liquid to the heat-absorbing surface. | 09-24-2009 |

20100253923 | HEAT EXCHANGER AND PROJECTOR - A heat exchanger which is hollow and contains a plurality of small flow paths includes: a plurality of partition walls disposed in parallel with one another in the width direction of the heat exchanger to form the plural small flow paths; and an inlet unit and an outlet unit configured to communicate with the inside and the outside of the heat exchanger, and allow cooling liquid to flow into and out of the heat exchanger through the inlet unit and the outlet unit, the inlet unit and the outlet unit extend in directions opposite to each other along the width direction from a pair of center positions located approximately at the centers of inner side surfaces of the heat exchanger in the width direction and opposed to each other, and penetrate outer side surfaces of the heat exchanger. | 10-07-2010 |
20140300871 | LIQUID-COOLING DEVICE AND PROJECTOR - In at least one embodiment of the disclosure, a projector comprises an optical element holding member that allows a flow of a cooling liquid therein. A plurality of liquid circulation members connect the optical element holding member and a liquid pumping unit and to define a flow channel of the cooling liquid. A heat-receiving jacket is disposed in the flow channel and has a plurality of flow channels. A thermoelectric conversion element having a heat-absorbing surface is connected to the heat-receiving jacket and a heat-radiating surface is connected to a heat transfer member. A supporting member fixes the heat-receiving jacket and the heat transfer member. A baffle member defines an internal space with the supporting member and houses the heat transfer member in the internal space. A cooling fan provides cooling air to the heat transfer member disposed in the internal space. | 10-09-2014 |
20150156466 | PROJECTOR - A projector includes a cooling device cooling a liquid crystal panel. The cooling device includes a heat receiving part receiving heat of the liquid crystal panel, a Peltier device having a heat absorbing part that absorbs the heat of the heat receiving part and a heat generating part that generates heat when the absorbing part absorbs heat, a heat sink provided so that heat may be transferred to the heat generating part, and a heat pipe containing a hydraulic fluid inside, in which heat is transferred by convection of the hydraulic fluid. The heat sink has a stacking part superimposed on the Peltier device and a projecting part projecting from the Peltier device as seen from the Peltier device side, and the heat pipe has an interior part located between the Peltier device and the stacking part and an extending part extending along the projecting part. | 06-04-2015 |
