Title:
SMOKE DETECTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5436986
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A smoke detector of the type utilizing a pulsing light source and photo-responsive means producing an output signal in response to the receipt of a pulse of light from said source reflected from smoke particles and means for amplifying said output signal to produce an alarm signal, which has exceptionally low current drain so as to be adapted for being powered by a battery, and exceptional immunity to false alarms even when operated at a high sensitivity. On each pulse, the amplifier is energized and allowed to achieve a stabilized condition, prior to energizing the light source, and after the light source is energized, the amplified output signal is not allowed to create an alarm signal until the circuit has again stabilized from transients caused by the energizing of the light, thereby preventing false alarms from circuit transients resulting from internal and external causes.
