Abstract

Abstract A rear projection screen comprises a first sheet formed with a Fresnel lens and vertical lenticular lenses on both surfaces of a first transparent sheet made of synthetic resin, and a second sheet formed with a horizontal grating on one surface of a second transparent sheet made of synthetic resin and also formed with a horizontal grating or fine mat surface layer and simultaneously a black striped layer on the other surface thereof so that they are assembled so as to be faced each other, whereby whole screen brightness and screen brightness uniformity as well as contrast are improved and can be advantageously used for the screen for three dimensional projectors.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 130 words
A rear projection screen for projectors, which comprises: a first sheet including a Fresnel lens formed on the inner surface facing a projection lens of a first transparent sheet made of resin and horizontal lenticular lenses formed on the opposite surface thereof and a second sheet including a horizontal grating formed on the inner surface facing said projection lens of a second transparent sheet made of resin and a horizontal grating or a fine mat surface layer formed on the outer surface facing an observer as well as a number of vertical black stripes layer formed, whereby the first sheet and the second sheet are assembled so as to face each other for improving the whole screen brightness and brightness uniformity and preventing contrast deterioration according to the external light.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 130 words
A rear projection screen for projectors, which comprises: a first sheet including a Fresnel lens formed on the inner surface facing a projection lens of a first transparent sheet made of resin and horizontal lenticular lenses formed on the opposite surface thereof and a second sheet including a horizontal grating formed on the inner surface facing said projection lens of a second transparent sheet made of resin and a horizontal grating or a fine mat surface layer formed on the outer surface facing an observer as well as a number of vertical black stripes layer formed, whereby the first sheet and the second sheet are assembled so as to face each other for improving the whole screen brightness and brightness uniformity and preventing contrast deterioration according to the external light.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 72 words
The rear projection screen of claim 1, wherein the cross section of each unit lenticular lens provided to said horizontal lenticular lens is a curved plane formed by controlling distribution of slant and infinitesimal area of corresponding slant so as to be able to diverge uniformly the projection image beam within a predetermined horizontal angle of field view range around an observer on the screen light axis distanced away from the screen.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
The rear projection screen of claim 1, wherein the horizontal grating formed on said second sheet has a convex and concave cross section.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 34 words
The rear projection screen of claim 3, wherein the convex and concave portion of said horizontal grating are buried by attaching a resin having a refraction index different from that of said horizontal grating.
