Abstract

See full text

A projector includes: an image light generating section generating image light; a projection lens projecting the image light emitted from the image light generating section; a lens shift mechanism moving the projection lens in a first direction orthogonal to an optical axis of the projection lens; an external housing accommodating the image light generating section and the lens shift mechanism and including an opening surrounding the projection lens; and a fitting mechanism attached to the external housing. The external housing includes a notch portion formed by cutting off a portion of the peripheral edge of the opening and located in the first direction with respect to the projection lens. The fitting mechanism includes a fitting portion fitted into the notch portion and forming a portion of the peripheral edge. The fitting portion moves away from the projection lens by being pressed from the projection lens side.
