Abstract

A projector device-of the present invention includes a light blocking mechanism for blocking leak light from a lamp unit. The light blocking mechanism includes a first light blocking member having a plurality of first light blocking plates arranged therein at certain pitches, and a second light blocking member having a plurality of second light blocking plates arranged therein at certain pitches. The first light blocking plates and the second light blocking plates each define a gap providing an air flow passage. A flat inclined part of each second light blocking plate extends in an inverted direction to a flat inclined part of each first light blocking plate, with a predetermined angle of inclination, so that the first light blocking plates and the second light blocking plates block the light emitted from the lamp unit toward a vent of a casing in all orientations.
