Patent Number: 8757809 
Title: Color Combining Illumination Device 
Abstract:

An illumination device comprising a first light source generating first light beam having a first spectral distribution and a second light source generating a second light beam having a second spectral distribution. A first dichroic reflector is positioned in the first light beam and transmits a part of the first light beam and reflects a part of the second light beam. The first and second light beam propagates initially primarily in a first direction along an optical axis and reflecting means reflects the second light beam towards the dichroic reflector. The light sources, the dichroic reflector and reflecting means are mutually arranged such that the second light beam propagates primarily in a second direction substantially opposite the first direction and towards the first light source after being reflected by the reflecting means and such that the second light beam propagates substantial in the first direction after being reflected by the dichroic reflector.
