Inventor: LIU HENG
IPC: B60K35/00
Filed: 2021-02-23
Abstract: A virtual image display device includes a light source, an image member, a Fresnel lens array (41) having an array structure (240) of Fresnel lens units (244). Each of the Fresnel lens units includes divided lens surfaces (245) that commonly curve convexly or concavely. The array structure includes eccentric Fresnel lens units (244E) as the Fresnel lens units. The divided lens surfaces have curvature centers offset from an individual center axis line (AX2). Each of the eccentric Fresnel lens units has an offset amount (EA) defined as a distance of the curvature centers from the individual center axis line. The offset amount of the eccentric Fresnel lens unit having a larger value of the inter-axis distance between the overall reference axis line and the individual center axis line is greater than the offset amount of the eccentric Fresnel lens unit having a smaller value of the inter-axis distance.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an X-ray fluorescence analyzer, which includes a sample box configured to accommodate a liquid sample; an X-ray generation unit configured to irradiate an X-ray to one side surface of the inside of the sample box; and a detector disposed along one side surface of the sample box at which a distance of a fluorescent X-ray emitted from the inside of the sample box to the outside of the sample box is shortest in order to minimize absorption of the fluorescent X-ray emitted out of the sample box in the air, when the X-ray irradiated by the X-ray generation unit reacts with the liquid sample inside the sample box to emit the fluorescent X-ray out of the sample box, the detector being configured to detect the fluorescent X-ray. 
     According to the present disclosure, a target element may be measured more precisely in an atmospheric environment without vacuum exhaust by irradiating an X-ray in a state as close to an inner wall of a sample box as possible to increase an emitted fluorescent X-ray while minimizing absorption by a liquid. 
     In addition, by using a structure in which a secondary target is disposed and characteristic X-ray generated from the target is irradiated to the sample again, the radiation that is inevitably discarded may be returned back to the inside of the sample box, thereby increasing the efficiency.
