Projection-type display device

Abstract

A projection-type display device includes: a light source; a dust-proof case; heat-dissipating fins; a heat-dissipation fan that causes cooling air to flow into the heat-dissipating fins; a prism unit that is provided inside the dust-proof case and that separates light from the light source into a multiplicity of illumination light beams; an internal circulation fan; heat-receiving fins; and heat pipes that connect the heat-dissipating fins and the heat-receiving fins. The heat-receiving fins and the heat-dissipating fins are both formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, each having, as cooling air inflow surfaces that are effective in heat dissipation or heat reception, a first surface and a second surface whose area is greater than the first surface. The cooling airflow inside the dust-proof case that is supplied by the internal circulation fan flows from the first and second surfaces of the heat-receiving fins.
