REFLECTOR AND ILLUMINATION SYSTEM

摘要

A compact light guide illumination system is disclosed. Light from an illumination source is reflected by dual reflector (77) into a hot mirror (74). The hot mirror (74) is adapted to deflect the ultra-violet and/or infrared radiation components of the incident light away from the hot mirror, while allowing passage of the other visible components of the incident light through the hot mirror. A fan and air deflector assembly circulates air over the hot mirror and over other optical components, such as the homogenizer lens assembly (85), to thereby provide efficient heat management and dissipation capability to the light guide illumination system.
