Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A near-eye display device, including: a display screen ( 1 ) used for image display; an imaging lens ( 2 ) located at a light emission side of the display screen ( 1 ) and used for imaging a displayed image of the display screen ( 1 ); a flat plate ( 3 ) located on the side of the imaging lens ( 2 ) facing away from the display screen ( 1 ) and obliquely arranged relative to the optical axis of the imaging lens ( 2 ); a phase retardation layer ( 4 ) located on the side of the flat plate ( 3 ) facing the imaging lens ( 2 ); a polarization beam-splitting layer ( 5 ) located between the phase retardation layer ( 4 ) and the flat plate ( 3 ); a polarizing layer ( 6 ) located between the polarization splitting layer ( 5 ) and the flat plate ( 3 ); and a curved mirror ( 7 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A near-eye display device, comprising: a display screen, configured to display an image; an imaging lens, arranged at a light emitting side of the display screen and configured to image the displayed image of the display screen; a flat plate, arranged on one side facing away from the display screen, of the imaging lens; wherein the flat plate is obliquely arranged relative to an optical axis of the imaging lens; a phase retardation layer, arranged on one side, facing the imaging lens, of the flat plate; a polarization beam-splitting layer, arranged between the phase retardation layer and the flat plate; wherein the polarization beam-splitting layer is configured to transmit first linearly polarized light and reflect second linearly polarized light which has a polarization direction perpendicular to that of the first linearly polarized light; a polarizing layer, arranged between the polarization beam-splitting layer and the flat plate, wherein the polarizing layer is configured to transmit the first linearly polarized light and absorb the second linearly polarized light; and a curved mirror, arranged on a reflection light path of the polarization beam-splitting layer and arranged on one side, facing away from the flat plate, of the phase retardation layer; wherein the curved mirror is configured to reflect reflected light of the polarization beam-splitting layer to a position of human eyes and transmit ambient light; wherein the phase retardation layer, the polarization beam-splitting layer and the polarizing layer are sequentially arranged on the flat plate; wherein the flat plate is used for supporting the phase retardation layer, the polarization beam-splitting layer and the polarizing layer. 2. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein a transmission axis of the polarization beam-splitting layer is parallel to a transmission axis of the polarizing layer. 3. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein the polarizing layer is attached to a surface of the flat plate; and the phase retardation layer and the polarizing layer are attached to the polarization beam-splitting layer respectively. 4. The near-eye display device according to claim 3 , wherein an anti-reflecting film is arranged on a surface of one side, facing away from the polarizing layer, of the flat plate. 5. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein the phase retardation layer is a quarter-wave plate; and an included angle between an optical axis of the quarter-wave plate and a transmission axis of the polarization beam-splitting layer is 45°. 6. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein an included angle between the flat plate and the optical axis of the imaging lens is 45°. 7. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display screen is one of a liquid crystal display, an organic light emitting diode display, a miniature organic light emitting diode display, or a light emitting diode display. 8. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein the imaging lens comprises at least one lens; and the lens adopts one of a spherical lens, an aspherical lens or a free-form lens. 9. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein the curved mirror adopts one of a spherical lens, an aspherical lens or a free-form lens. 10. The near-eye display device according to claim 9 , wherein a transflective film is arranged on a surface of one side of the curved mirror. 11. The near-eye display device according to claim 10 , wherein reflectivity of the transflective film ranges from 50% to 70%. 12. The near-eye display device according to claim 1 , wherein the near-eye display device is glasses or a helmet; and the curved mirror is multiplexed as an ophthalmic lens of the glasses or the helmet.
