Embodiment 1

In this embodiment, a projection device is disclosed, as shown in FIG. 1, which includes at least one LED light source 1 configured to generate a beam of light, a condensing lens 2 configured to concentrate the light beam generated by the LED light source 1; at least one external projection mono-convex lens 3; and further includes at least one filter 4, where the filter 4 is located between the condensing lens 2 and the external projection mono-convex lens 3, an out-light surface of the condensing lens 2 is provided with a first ripple 21, and an upper and/or a lower surface of the filter 4 is provided with a second ripple 41; the first ripple 21 and the second ripple 41 both include an interference patterns that is formed by protruding outward and/or depressing inward and is configured to interfere with light rays; where the interference patterns on the condensing lens 2 and the filter 4 are similar or consistent, and a convex surface of the external projection mono-convex lens 3 is provided upwards.

The condensing lens 2 is refracted by the interference pattern on the first ripple 21, thereby forming an emitted light corresponding to the interference pattern on the first ripple 21. Then, the light passes through the filter 4 and undergoes two refractions, where the light is affected by the interference pattern on the second ripple 41, resulting in a refractive effect of the interference pattern superposition of the first ripple 21 and the second ripple 41. The light then enters the external projection mono-convex lens 3 for diffusion and emission, ultimately projecting a multi-level and three-dimensional projection pattern.

In this embodiment, the interference patterns of the first ripple 21 and the second ripple 41 are both formed by protruding upward, which can refer to a vortex pattern design disclosed in the patent of CN307701193S and CN307701192S.

Embodiment 2

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the difference compared to Embodiment 1 is that the convex surface of the external projection mono-convex lens 3 is provided downwards; when the convex surface of the external projection mono-convex lens 3 is provided downwards, it is beneficial to obtain a larger and inverted projection effect.

In an implementation, the LED light source 1, the condensing lens 2, the external projection mono-convex lens 3, and the filter 4 are located on the same axis, which facilitates the light to fully pass through the patterns on the condensing lens 2 and filter 4, thereby facilitating a formation of a complete light pattern distributed in a circular array based on the interference pattern projection, and the projection range is also larger.

Embodiment 3

In this embodiment, the difference compared to Embodiment 2 is that a driving mechanism 5 is provided on one side of the filter 4 so as to drive the filter 4 to perform reciprocating or rotational motion. Through the reciprocating or rotational motion of the filter 4, the filter 4 moves relative to the light emitted from the condensing lens 2, resulting in a dynamic gradient and multi-level stereoscopic effect in the projected image.

In this embodiment, at least one filter 4 is provided; when there are more than 2 filters 4, each filter 4 can be provided with a corresponding set of driving mechanisms 5 or no driving mechanisms 5 as needed.

Embodiment 4

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, In an implementation, the driving mechanism 5 includes a first rotating motor 51, a first biased rotating shaft 52, and a spring 53; the first biased rotating shaft 52 is fixedly installed on an output shaft of the first rotating motor 51, one side of the filter 4 is provided with a hinge hole 54 hinged with the first biased rotating shaft 52; the other side of the filter 4 is hinged or fixed with the spring 53; the other end of the spring 53 is fixedly connected to a housing of the projection device. Under a continuous rotation of the first rotating motor 51, the biased rotation shaft drives the filter 4 to move back and forth, resulting in a relative movement between the filter 4 and an original optical path, thereby facilitating the formation of a dynamic gradient and multi-level stereoscopic effect in the projected image.

Embodiment 5

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the difference compared to Embodiment 4 is that the driving mechanism 5 includes a second rotating motor 55, a second biased rotating shaft 56, and a sliding groove 57; the sliding groove 57 is fixedly connected to the housing of the projection device.

The second biased rotating shaft 56 is fixedly installed on an output shaft of the second rotating motor 55, and one end of the second biased rotating shaft 56 is provided in the wire slot hole 58. The filter 4 is movably connected to the second biased rotating shaft 56 through the wire slot hole 58; by rotating the second rotating motor 55 and driving the second biased rotating shaft 56 to rotate in a biased manner, the filter 4 can achieve reciprocating motion under the cooperation of the wire slot hole 58 and the second biased rotating shaft 56, thereby causing the relative movement between the filter 4 and the original optical path, and facilitating the formation of a dynamic gradient and multi-level stereoscopic effect in the projected image.

In this embodiment, the wire slot hole 58 is a straight groove on the filter 4. When the second biased rotating shaft 56 achieves an eccentric rotation under a rotation of the second rotating motor 55, the second biased rotating shaft 56 abuts against an inner wall of the wire slot hole 58, thereby generating a component force that drives the filter to move towards the sliding groove 57.

In an implementation, in order to avoid an interference with the rotation of the second biased rotating shaft 56 by the wire slot hole 58, a length of the wire slot hole 58 should be greater than a rotation diameter of the second biased rotating shaft 56.

Embodiment 6

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the difference compared to Embodiments 4 and 5 is that the driving mechanism 5 includes a third rotating motor 501, a first gear 502, and a second gear 503.

The first gear 502 is provided on one side of the filter 4.

The second gear 503 is fixedly installed on an output shaft of the third rotating motor 501 and is engaged with the first gear 502.

The third rotating motor 501 drives the filter 4 to rotate through an engagement transmission of the first gear 502 and the second gear 503. The third rotating motor 501 drives the filter 4 to rotate, causing the relative movement between the filter 4 and the original optical path, thereby facilitating the formation of a rotating and stereoscopic effect in the projected image.

Embodiment 7

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, a rotating mechanism 6 is provided on one side of the condensing lens 2 to drive the condensing lens 2 to rotate. In an implementation, the rotating mechanism 6 includes a first turntable 61 and a fourth rotating motor 62 that is configured to drive the first turntable 61 to rotate, and the condensing lens 2 is fixed on the first turntable 61; an edge of the first turntable 61 is provided with a ring gear 63, and a third gear 64 is fixedly installed on an output shaft of the fourth rotating motor 62. The third gear 64 engages with the ring gear 63, and the first turntable 61 and the condensing lens 2 are driven to rotate through the fourth rotating motor 62, so that the light emitted from the condensing lens 2 dynamically shone onto the filter 4, facilitating the formation of a dynamic gradient and multi-level stereoscopic effect in the projected image.

Embodiment 8

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the difference from Embodiment 7 is that the rotating mechanism 6 includes a fifth rotating motor 65, a second turntable 66, a belt 67, a first pulley 68, and a second pulley 69; the condensing lens 2 is fixed on the second turntable 66, the first pulley 68 is fixedly installed on an output shaft of the fifth rotating motor 65, the second pulley 69 is fixedly installed on the second turntable 66, and the belt 67 is sleeved on the first pulley 68 and the second pulley 69. A torque of the fifth rotating motor 65 is outputted to the second turntable 66 and the condensing lens 2 through the belt 67, thereby driving the second turntable 66 and the condensing lens 2 to rotate; the fifth rotating motor 65 is used to drive the condensing lens 2 to rotate, the light emitted from the condensing lens 2 is dynamically shone onto the filter 4, facilitating the projection of a dynamic gradient and multi-level stereoscopic effect in the projected image.

It should be noted that a pulley type transmission composed of the belt 67, the first pulley 68, and the second pulley 69 in this embodiment is only used to drive the compact condensing lens 2, so there is no need to provide a belt tensioning mechanism.

Correspondingly, the belt, first pulley, and second pulley in this embodiment can be replaced with a synchronous belt, a first synchronous wheel, and a second synchronous wheel, with the same effect after replacement.

The technical effect of the present disclosure is that, compared with existing technologies, the condensing lens is refracted by the interference pattern on the first ripple, thereby forming an emitted light corresponding to the interference pattern on the first ripple. Then, the light passes through the filter and undergoes two refractions, where the light is affected by the interference pattern on the second ripple, resulting in a refractive effect of the interference pattern superposition of the first ripple and the second ripple. Then, the light enters the external projection mono-convex lens for diffusion and emission, and finally can project a multi-level and stereoscopic effect in the projected pattern.

Of course, the above are only exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure. In addition, there may be various other embodiment of the present disclosure.
