Abstract
In a projector, a first fixation section and a second fixation section are formed at two places located at a distance in an optical axis direction in a lens barrel of a projection optical system. A holding member has contact with the first fixation section from an optical axis direction-rear side, and is fixed, an optical component housing of an illumination light guide optical system has contact with the holding member from the optical axis direction-rear side, and is fixed. A light modulating/combining optical system for generating image light has contact with the second fixation section from the optical axis direction-rear side and is fixed. In other words, the light modulating/combining optical system is directly fixed to the lens barrel without the intervention of the holding member for fixing the illumination light guide optical system to the lens barrel.
