Title:
GAS COMPONENT DETECTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012220351
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To suppress decrease in an infrared light reception amount that is caused by incident angle dependence of a wavelength filter.

An optical path of infrared rays (See a broken line of FIG. 1) is changed to be a substantially U-shaped by a first reflecting mirror 80 and a second reflecting mirror 81. Therefore, an incident angle (an angle formed by a normal direction of the surface of the wavelength filter 5, hereinafter same) of infrared rays of a wavelength filter 5 is nearly zero degree so that influence of incident angle dependence of the wavelength filter 5 can be hardly given as compared with conventional examples. As a result, the amount of infrared rays passing through the wavelength filter 5 to reach a light reception part 4 can be increased and reduction in detection accuracy of gas components can be suppressed.
