Abstract
A liquid crystal display device comprises a converging reflector, a liquid crystal panel, a condenser lens and a projection lens, wherein a correlation between these optical parts and structure of sizes of the optical parts is considered. Accordingly, a convergence efficiency of the device as whole system can be improved. A converging reflector comprises a light source and a reflecting mirror reflecting a light from the light source, wherein a curved plane shape of the mirror is offset radially to the same length as a radius of a light emitting tube of the light source. Accordingly, a convergence efficiency of the converging reflector can be improved.
