Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a projector, and more particularly to an LCD projector. [Prior Art] $ $ LCD 彳 衫 machine is mainly divided into two types: transmissive and reflective. The basic working principle is to control the rotation of the liquid crystal molecules by applying an image signal to modulate the polarization state of the light, thereby forming a visually perceptible full-color surface. For a transmissive LCD projector, each pixel region includes a liquid crystal molecule that can transmit light and a thin TFT (TFT) that controls the rotation of the liquid crystal molecules. Since the thin film transistor is a semiconductor device, the blood type is made of an amorphous material, and the amorphous material is relatively sensitive to photoelectric effects. Therefore, in order to avoid direct illumination of the thin film transistor, _, in order to avoid the problem of bleeding between adjacent elements, each element is coated with a metal material with a lower reflectivity, called Black Matrix. . Therefore, when the light emitted from the light source passes through the LCD® board, the partial aperture is absorbed by the black matrix, resulting in a lower aperture ratio (Aperture Rati〇). The aperture ratio refers to the ratio of the area of the actual light-transmittable region to the total area of the unit cell in the monoterpene. The higher the aperture ratio, the higher the transmittance of the light. In order to increase the aperture ratio of the panel, the panel manufacturer generally forms a fixed microlens array (MLA) on the panel 4, such as a transparent conductive glass substrate. Since the microlens has a converging effect on the light, the light originally incident on the black matrix can pass through the liquid permeable molecules, thereby increasing the aperture ratio of the panel. However, the image from the panel 200914979 ′′ will introduce a large angle into the projection surface of the projection surface, and the image light will be diverged when the projection lens is incident on the projection lens. The aperture value of the projection lens is reduced, and the degree is reduced. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a projector that changes the purity of the projection lens to the projection mirror, and has a (four) resolution. Kind & pain, used to project the screen to the display screen. The projector includes a light source, a liquid crystal modulator, a projection lens, and a lens element: = used to emit an approximation flat; ', depreciation - y first line. The liquid crystal modulator includes a microlens array and a liquid ray array. The microlens array is used to converge the approximately parallel rays emitted by the (four) P... source. The projection lens projects the light emitted from the liquid crystal cell. 1 : The page is not on the screen. The focal length of the lens S piece and the microlens array can be adjusted 2=close; by adjusting the effective focal length of the lens combination, the divergence angle of the light incident on the lens of the shirt is changed. The projector adjusts the effective focal length of the lens combination by adjusting the distance between the movable microlens group and the microlens array, thereby changing the divergence angle of the light incident on the head, so that the projection surface has a difficult resolution. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, the detailed description of the drawings with reference to the specific embodiments, the ease of the present invention, the technical contents, the features and the effects achieved by the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, a three-chip LCD projector 10 is used to project an image plane onto a display screen 44. The projector 10 includes a light source 12, an integrator lens 14, a polarization converter 16, dichroic mirrors 2, 24, mirrors 22, 26, 28 retardation mirrors 262, 264, movable lens groups 23, 25, 27, liquid crystal modulation 200914979 32 34, 36 'Combined light 38, and projection lens 42. Each of the optical elements described above is configured to be located in the optical path of the light source 12 and the display screen. Φ Light source 12 can be a high dust halogen lamp or a high fruit lamp, (2) and a reflector lamp cover 124. The reflector 124 can be parabolic in shape and converts the light from the filament 122 into approximately parallel rays having an approximately circular cross-section along the beam propagation path. The integrator lens 14 includes a pair of oppositely disposed integrating lenses i4a and Μ#145 having a plurality of microlenses and having substantially the same dimensions as the rectangular liquid crystal panels of the liquid crystal layers 34, 36. The integrating lenses 14a and 14b distribute the above-described light beams of a circular cross section which is emitted from the light source 12 on the liquid crystal panel. Polarization conversion ϋ 1M is provided for the integrator lens 14 for changing the polarization state of the light exiting from the product/tool lens U, such that the outgoing light\for example converts the s light into a neon light, thereby dimming the light from the polarization converter 16 . The dichroic mirrors 20, 24 are arranged to have an angle with the polarization converter; for example 45 degrees. The dichroic mirrors 2, 24 have substantially parallel spectroscopic surfaces, and the dichroic planes 202, 242 are respectively exposed to optical films sensitive to different visible spectra. The light emitted from the polarization converter 16 is the first color = the split surface is moved. The split surface 2〇2 is transparent to red light, and the inverse color = (mix of green light and blue light). The light reflected by the dichroic mirror is then incident on the dichroic surface of the dichroic mirror 24 as above, and the light 242 is transparent to the blue light and reflects the green light. Therefore, the light beams which are applied by the dichroic mirror 20, 200914979.24 are separated into three colors of red (R), green (G), and blue (B). The red light transmitted from the dichroic mirror 20 is reflected by the mirror 22 and then incident on the liquid crystal modulator 34; the green light reflected from the dichroic mirror 24 is incident on the liquid crystal modulator 32; from the dichroic mirror 24 The transmitted blue light is twice reflected by the mirrors 26 and 28 and then incident on the liquid crystal modulator 36. Between the dichroic mirror 24 and the mirror 26 and between the mirrors 26, 28 are respectively provided with retarding mirrors 262, 264 for making the blue light and the green light and the red light have substantially equal optical paths. length. The liquid crystal modulators 32, 34, 36 are respectively configured to change the rotation direction of the liquid crystal molecules according to the action of the electric driving signals converted by the image input signals, thereby changing the polarization states of the respective colors of light. The liquid crystal modulators 32, 34, 36 include microlens arrays 324, 344, 364 and liquid crystal cells 326, 346, 366, respectively. The microlens arrays 324, 344, 364 are regularly arranged with a plurality of microlenses 322, 342, 362 in a two-dimensional direction. The red, green and blue colors are respectively concentrated by the microlenses 322, 342, and 362, and then the liquid crystal cells 326, 346, and 366' are respectively used to increase the aperture ratio of the liquid crystal panel. The dichroic light modulated by the liquid crystal modulators %, 36 is incident on the combined light 稜鏡%, and the combined green light 'reflects the red light and the blue light, so that the three colors of light are mixed = one light is incident on the projection lens 42. The projection lens 42 includes a plurality of spherical or aspherical lenses having a positive power or a negative power to project the mixed light beam onto the display screen 44. See also item 2 'Because the projection lens 42 is composed of a plurality of lenses, and the lens has a difference in imaging quality between different angles of human light, so the projection resolution is projected into each region on the display I 44 There is also a 200914979 difference. The area indicated by the center circle 444 corresponds to the light projected by the projection lens 42 near the optical axis portion, and the incident angle of the portion of the light is small, correspondingly having small spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, distortion aberration, etc. The resolution is relatively high. The area indicated by the four surrounding circles 442 corresponds to the light projected from the projection lens 42 at a large angle. The portion of the light has a relatively large incident angle, so that it has relatively obvious aberration, chromatic aberration, distortion aberration, etc. The degree is low. Referring to Fig. 1, a plurality of movable microlens groups 23, 25, 27 are respectively disposed on the pupil paths of the microlens arrays 324, 344, and 364. The collapsible microlens group 23 is located between the dichroic mirror 24 and the microlens array 324; the microlens, 'and 25 are located between the mirror 22 and the microlens array 344; the disposable microlens group 27 is located at the mirror 28 and Between the microlens arrays 364. The microlens groups 23, 25, 27 are respectively _ plural microlenses 232, 252, 272 in a two-dimensional direction perpendicular to the incident optical path. By adjusting the divergence angle of the light between the movable microlens group 23, 25, 27 and the corresponding microlens arrays 324, 344, 364 and the light incident on the projection lens 42, the light is concentrated and the sin is close to the silk. Partly, to improve the resolution of the projection surface.

The divergence angle of the light, so that each resolution of the projection surface can be improved. The projector 10 further includes a controller 52 and a micro motor 54°, wherein the control unit 52 is electrically connected to the micro motor 54. The controller 52 is used for the control signal or the projector 10 manually input according to the user. The automatically generated control nickname control micromotor 54 drives the movable microlens group 23 to move back and forth in the direction of the axis.

If the hunting is driven by the controller 52, the micro lens is formed by the microlens. ) / (w ^ _ > Feffl. Because the focal length of the lens is longer, the light will be weak, so that the light emitted from the liquid crystal modulators 32, 34, 36 is smaller: 11 200914979 The angle θ2 (θ2<Θι It is incident on the projection lens 42. Since the light incident near the optical axis and incident at the angle has a small spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, distortion aberration, etc., the area where the projection surface is poorly analyzed is retouched. By increasing the distance ΔΧ between the movable microlens group 23 and the microlens array 324, the light has a smaller incident angle θ′ to the projection lens 42. That is, the projection lens 42 (4) the person who emits light has a larger aperture value. The shot θ corresponds to a different aperture value F, so in the case of the paraxial first line, for the fixed focal length projection lens, the distance ΔX' between the movable microlens group 23 and the microlens array 324 can be further adjusted. Change the aperture of the projection lens , thereby adjusting the brightness contrast of the projection pupil, etc. 70 ^ The projector 10 is configured to change the distance between the movable microlens group 23 and the micro-lens array 324 by changing the distance between the microlens 232 and the microlens 322. And the effective focal length, thereby changing the convergence angle of the light incident on the projection lens, so that the projection lens 42 is projected onto the display screen 4 = the surface has a better resolution.
