Abstract:
A color wheel rotation speed detecting module is disclosed and includes a color wheel, a motor, a rotation speed detector and a processor. The color wheel includes a first segment and at least one second segment. The motor drives the color wheel to rotate. The rotation speed detector includes an emitter and a receiver. The emitter outputs a light signal to the first segment or the second segment of the color wheel when the color wheel is rotated. When the receiver receives the light signal reflected from the second segment, the receiver outputs a detecting signal correspondingly. When the light signal passes through the first segment and the receiver fails to receive the light signal, the receiver interrupts the output of the detecting signal. The processor receives the detecting signal from the receiver, and obtains the rotating speed of the color wheel according to the detecting signal varied with time.

A projector protection method includes: multiple temperature sensors detect temperatures of multiple areas in a projector to obtain multiple temperature parameters respectively; a processor lowers an output power of a laser source when any temperature parameter corresponding to one of areas falls into corresponding one of multiple first temperature intervals and multiple fans in the projector are set to a maximum speed; and the processor turns off the laser source when any temperature parameter corresponding to one of areas falls into corresponding one of multiple second temperature intervals. The second temperature interval and the first temperature interval corresponding to the same temperature parameter are different from each other.

A digital micro-mirror unit is arranged on a circuit board. A digital micro-mirror device mask surroundingly covers the digital micro-mirror unit. A thermo-insulation element is arranged between the digital micro-mirror unit and the digital micro-mirror device mask. The digital micro-mirror unit is thermally insulated against the digital micro-mirror device mask through the thermos-insulation element. A thermoelectric cooler (TEC) is thermally connected to the digital micro-mirror unit. A thermo-conductive body is attached on the hot side of the TEC. Therefore the digital micro-mirror unit can meet temperature requirements of safety standards and avoid reducing its service life.
