Abstract

An image display device is a self-luminous type device including a light emitting portion, and a casing portion of a display device unit has a heat dissipating structure portion through which a part of the image display device is exposed for heat dissipation. In manufacturing the display device unit, when performing simple and reliable assembly while securing a high heat dissipation characteristic, for example, by using characteristics of a silicon substrate, high accurate positioning is performed in a display device positioning portion.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A head mounted display comprising:
a first display device includes a first video device, a first casing portion, a first projection optical system, a first frame portion, a first light guide member, and a first thermal conductive tape; a second display device includes a second video device, a second casing portion, a second projection optical system, a second frame portion, a second light guide member, and a second thermal conductive tape, wherein the first video device emits first video light from a light emitting surface of the first video device to the first projection optical system, the second video device emits second video light from a light emitting surface of the second video device to the second projection optical system, the first projection optical system emits the first video light from the first video device to the first light guide member, the second projection optical system emits the second video light from the second video device to the second light guide member, the first casing portion accommodates the first video device and exposes an opposite surface of the first video device, the opposite surface of the first video device is a surface opposite to the light emitting surface of the first video light, the second casing portion accommodates the second video device and exposes an opposite surface of the second video device, the opposite surface of the second video device is a surface opposite to the light emitting surface of the second video light, the first thermal conductive tape attached both of the opposite surface of the first video device and a surface of the first frame portion that is not parallel with the surface of the first frame portion, the second thermal conductive tape attached both of the opposite surface of the second video device and a surface of the second frame portion that is not parallel with the surface of the first frame portion.

2 . The head mounted display according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first video device includes an OLED element on a first silicon substrate, the second video device includes an OLED element on a second silicon substrate, the opposite surface of the first video device is a surface of the first silicon substrate, and the opposite surface of the second video device is a surface of the second silicon substrate.

3 . The head mounted display according to claim 2 ,
wherein the first video device contacts with the first casing portion at edge surfaces of the first silicon substrate, and the second video device contacts with the second casing portion at edge surfaces of the second silicon substrate.

4 . The head mounted display according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first casing portion includes a first video device positioning portion that contacts with a place other than the opposite surface of the first video device, and the second casing portion includes a second video device positioning portion that contacts with a place other than the opposite surface of the second video device.

5 . The head mounted display according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first video device includes a first flexible printed circuit portion that is not overlapped with the first thermal conductive tape, the second video device includes a second flexible printed circuit portion that is not overlapped with the second thermal conductive tape.

6 . The head mounted display according to claim 5 ,
wherein the first flexible printed circuit portion includes a thermal conductive material, and the second flexible printed circuit portion includes a thermal conductive material.
