A drive, primarily for an optical light forming device, which light forming device can be used in a projector, which light forming device comprises an at least partly open area for light, where at least two light forming devices cooperate in a light path for forming the light, which light forming devices are rotated around a common axis in and out of the light path. To achieve opposite synchronous movement of light forming means, the light forming devices are rotated equal in opposite directions around the common axis by a common motor. Hereby, it can be achieved that the two light forming devices are rotated synchronously, but opposite in relation to each other. The opposite synchronous movement is very important if the light fainting devices are part of a modern computer controlled projector using step motors.
Color means used in a projector, said projector comprises light generating means, said light generating means forms a light path passing through the color means, said color means comprises two color flags operating pair wise, said color flags are movable into and out from the light path from different directions and are partly overlapping, a first color flag comprises a first color pattern and a second color flag comprises a second color pattern, the first color pattern and the second color pattern are formed opposite each other and the color flags are rotatable by a gear mechanism, said gear mechanism has a motor axle connected to a motor and the gear mechanism comprises a first output axel connected to one of the color flags and a second output axle each connected to the other one of the color flags, where said first output axel and said second output axel rotates around a common axis, said gear mechanism comprises:
Dimmer means used in a projector, said projector comprises light generating means, said light generating means forms a light path passing through the dimmer means, said dimmer means comprises two dimmer flags operating pair wise, said dimmer flags are movable into and out from the light path from different directions and are partly overlapping, a first dimmer flag comprises a first dimmer pattern and a second dimmer flag comprises a second dimmer pattern, the first dimmer pattern and the second dimmer pattern are formed opposite each other and the dimmer flags are rotatable by a gear mechanism, said gear mechanism has a motor axle connected to a motor and the gear mechanism comprises a first output axel connected to one of the dimmer flags and a second output axle each connected to the other one of the dimmer flags, where said first output axel and said second output axel rotates around a common axis, said gear mechanism comprises:
