Abstract:
A guiding device and a projector comprising the same are provided. The projector comprises a blower and a bulb. The blower is used for cooling the bulb. The guiding device is disposed between the blower and the bulb, and comprises a body and a flapper. The body of the guiding device is formed with a first outlet and a second outlet. The first outlet and the second outlet are adapted to guide the blower to form a first airflow and a second airflow, respectively. The flapper is disposed in the second outlet and moves along a direction of gravity to partially cover the second outlet to force the second airflow to flow towards a portion of the bulb away from the direction of gravity.
Abstract:
A cooling system for cooling a heat source and a projection apparatus having the same are disclosed. The cooling system includes a heat dissipating device and a thermoelectric cooler (TEC). The heat source is disposed on the side of the heat dissipating device. The TEC is disposed on the other side of the heat dissipating device corresponding to the heat source. The TEC is initiated as the temperature of the heat source is greater than the first value, while the TEC is shut off as the temperature of the heat source is lower than the second value. Therefore, the cooling system economizes the energy by controlling the operation of the TEC according to the temperature of the heat source.
Abstract:
A heat dissipation assembly for a projection apparatus is provided. The projection apparatus includes a light source, optical elements and a heat dissipation assembly. The heat dissipation assembly includes a case, a heat dissipation element, a fan and a temperature controlling unit. The optical elements transmit a light beam generated by the light source, and thereby generate heat. The heat dissipation assembly is adapted for heat dissipation correspondingly. In the heat dissipation assembly, the case protects the optical elements from being polluted by the dust during heat dissipation. The temperature controlling unit senses the surrounding temperature to control the fan for cooling the heat dissipation element, and the durability of the optical elements are thereby enhanced.

Abstract:
A cooling device and a projector comprising the same are provided. The projector comprises a light source. The cooling device is disposed adjacent to the light source for cooling a bulb of the light source. The cooling device comprises a blower and a guiding device. The blower is used to generate an airflow towards the bulb. The guiding device is disposed adjacent to the blower and comprises a peripheral edge and a flapper. The peripheral edge defines an outlet for the airflow to pass therethrough. The flapper moves along a direction of gravity to partially cover the outlet to force the airflow to flow towards an end of the bulb away from the direction of gravity.

A projection device and a light source temperature regulating method thereof are provided. The projection device comprises a light source, a cooling unit and a control unit. The light source is operated at a working temperature. The cooling unit provides a cooling capacity to the light source. The control unit actively adjusts the cooling capacity of the cooling unit, and thus allows the working temperature of the light source to vary within the anticipated range.
Abstract:
An overheat prevention device for use in a projection apparatus is provided. The projection apparatus comprises a light source module. The overheat prevention device comprises an inclination angle detector, a cooling module, and a control circuitry. The inclination detector is adapted to detect a first inclination angle and a second inclination angle, which the light source module is subject to relative to a reference plane, and transmit a first inclination signal and a second inclination signal, respectively. In response to the first inclination signal, the control circuitry alters the cooling module from a first operation mode to a second operation mode. In response to the second inclination signal, the control circuitry alters the projection apparatus from the first operation mode to the second operation mode.
