Abstract
An overhead projector that irradiates light onto an object or a sheet of paper, focuses the light reflected therefrom with a focusing lens, isolates ultraviolet or infrared rays having a specific wavelength among the focused light via a filter, forms an image by irradiating the isolated light onto an image former, and projects the image onto a projection screen by irradiating visible light onto the image former whereby the image is enlarged and projected via a projection lens to thereby obtain a more clear image.
Claims17
An overhead projector comprising:
- first illuminating means for irradiating light having a predetermined wavelength onto an object placed on a planar surface;
- focusing means for focusing the light irradiated by said first illumination means and reflected from the object;
- first isolating means for passing a specific wavelength of the light being incident from said focusing means, and for reflecting the light not having the specific wavelength at a predetermined angle;
- image forming means for forming an image of the object by a photosensitive reaction by employing the light having a specific wavelength and which has passed said first isolating means;
- second illuminating means for irradiating illuminance light, said illuminance light having a visible light component which is irradiated onto said image forming means at a predetermined angle;
- second isolating means for irradiating the visible light component of the illuminance light irradiated from said second illuminating means onto said image forming means, and for removing the specific wavelength component of said illuminance light;
- reflection means for reflecting the image onto which the visible light component irradiated from said second isolating means onto said image forming means is projected at a predetermined angle;
- and
- means for enlarging and projecting the object image onto a projection screen, said enlarging and projecting means being incident to said reflection means.

An overhead projector comprising:
- a base plate whereon an object is placed;
- a support extended upward from one side of said base plate;
- a first optical source positioned on the support on said base plate and which irradiates light onto the object at a predetermined angle;
- a focusing lens group for focusing the light reflected from the object which was irradiated from said first optical source onto the object;
- a second optical source for irradiating illuminating light at a right angle with respect to the optical axis of the focusing lens group, said illuminating light having a visible light component and a specific wavelength component;
- a filter for passing a specific wavelength of the reflected light from said object being incident from said focusing lens group and for reflecting the visible light component of the light irradiated from said second optical source coaxially with the specific wavelength of the light reflected from said object;
- a first light-shielding film positioned coaxially with said second optical source and which emits and shields the light reflected from said object and not passed through said filter and the specific wavelength component of the illuminating light irradiated from said second optical source which pass through said filter;
- an image forming member positioned above said filter along the optical axis of the focusing lens group and which reacts photo-sensitively by the filtered specific wavelength of the light reflected from said object so as to form an image corresponding to the object;
- a reflection mirror positioned above said image forming member along the optical axis of the focusing lens group so as to reflect an image;
- a projection lens for enlarging and projecting the image of the object from the entire surface of said reflection mirror;
- and
- a head fixed on one end of said support and which includes a second light-shielding film positioned about the projection lens in order to shield the specific wavelength introduced from the outside.
