Patent ID: 8564883

Claim:
A virtual image display device, comprising: an image display device that emits image light; a projective optical system that allows the image light emitted from the image display device to be incident; and a light guiding member, comprising: a light guiding portion; a light incidence portion that allows the image light to be incident to the light guiding portion; and a light emission portion that emits the image light guided by the light guiding portion to the outside, and that makes the image light visible through the light emission portion, the light guiding portion having a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface that are disposed in parallel with each other and allow the light beam to be guided through a substantially total reflection, the light incidence portion having a third reflective surface that makes a predetermined angle with respect to the first reflective surface, the light emission portion having a fourth reflective surface that makes a predetermined angle with respect to the first reflective surface, the image light from the image display device being guided into the light guiding member with a number of times of reflection that is different in each image light beam, and a plurality of image light beams formed in correspondence with the number of times of reflection are combined through the light emission portion and are emitted to the outside, and the light guiding member being configured to increase a width of an angle of emission of the image light emitted from the light emission portion.
