A projector includes an optical path change device placed between a light modulation device and a projection optical device. The optical path change device has an optical member holding part that holds an optical member that a light modulated by the light modulation device enters, and a supporting member that swingably supports the optical member holding part. The supporting member is supported by a holding member that holds the light modulation device or the projection optical device.

Projector

A projector includes a light source, a light modulator configured to modulate light emitted from the light source, an optical projection device configured to project the modulated light, a light path changer between the light modulator and the optical projection device and on which the modulated light is incident, and a cooler that cools the light modulator and the light path changer. The light path changer includes an optical member to change the light path of the incident light and a first fluctuation member. The first fluctuation member includes a permanent magnet, a coil, and a coil holder holding the coil, and fluctuates the optical member by supplying power to the coil. The cooler includes a fan and a duct to deliver cooling air toward the light path changer. The duct includes a sending port that faces the coil holder and flows the cooling air toward the light path changer.

A projector includes a light source, a light modulator configured to modulate light emitted from the light source, an optical projection device configured to project the light modulated by the light modulator, a light path changer disposed between the light modulator and the optical projection device and on which the light modulated by the light modulator is incident, the light path changer changing a light path of the incident light through fluctuation, and a cooler cooling the light modulator and the light path changer.

A projector includes a leg portion adjusting an installation angle of an external housing. The leg portion includes a columnar member moving in a first direction, a case member in which the columnar member is accommodated, a fixing member including an engaging portion along the first direction inside the case member and fixing the columnar member, and a switching member moving in a second direction crossing the first direction and switching the fixing member between a state in which the fixing member moves in a direction toward the columnar member to engage therewith and a state in which the fixing member moves in a direction away from the columnar member to release the engagement therewith. The columnar member includes an engaged portion to be engaged with the engaging portion of the fixing member inside the case member, and a base portion moving in the first direction outside the case member.

A projector includes: a light source; a light modulation device that modulates light emitted from the light source; an optical projection device that projects the light modulated by the light modulation device; a light path changing element (shift element) that is disposed between the light modulation device and the optical projection device and changes a light path of the light modulated by the light modulation device through fluctuation; and a cooling device that cools the light modulation device and the light path changing element (shift element).

A grasping tool which is attached to a device includes: a main body which is provided with two extending portions extending out in substantially the same direction and a connecting portion that connects respective one-side ends of the two extending portions; and a reinforcement portion that connects and reinforces a position different from that of the connecting portion, in the two extending portions. The main body and the reinforcement portion include an attachment portion that attaches the grasping tool to the device.
