3 and an amplifier circuit 24.

The pyroelectric elements 16a and 16b are mounted on the printed circuit board 9, the other circuits are mounted on the printed circuit board 13, and the circuits are connected by electric wires (not shown).

The amplifier circuits 19a and 19b are connected to the pyroelectric element 16
a, and amplifies the charges induced by 16b and outputs the signals to bandpass filters 20a and 20b, respectively. The bandpass filters 20a and 20b remove high-frequency and low-frequency noise contained in the signals amplified by the amplifier circuits 19a and 19b, and output the signals to the comparison circuits 21a and 21b, respectively.

The comparison circuits 21a and 21b compare the outputs of the bandpass filters 20a and 20b with preset threshold values, and when the outputs of the bandpass filters 20a and 20b exceed the preset threshold values, respectively. A detection signal is output to 22a and 22b.

Here, the reason that the comparison circuits 21a and 21b are provided is that the user arbitrarily sets the threshold value so that the malfunction does not occur due to the noise caused by the electronic components in the human body detector or the breeze, and the threshold value is exceeded. This is to detect when it is detected.

The delay circuits 22a, 22b are
The detection signals a and 21b are configured to be output to the logic circuit 23 for a predetermined period of time. Then, the logic circuit 23 calculates the logical product of the signals output from the delay circuits 22a and 22b, and if the result is true,
A logic detection signal is output to the amplifier circuit 24.

Next, the amplifying circuit 24 amplifies the logic detection signal of the logic circuit 23, issues an alarm from the speaker 18, and knows that a human body has been detected (it knows that a suspicious person has entered). ing.

The reason why the delay circuits 22a and 22b are provided is that the human body sometimes passes through the detection range of the pyroelectric element 16a and then passes through the detection range of the pyroelectric element 16b. Detection range of pyroelectric element 16a, pyroelectric element 16
If it is limited to the case of simultaneous detection with the detection range of b,
AND may not be true. For this reason, such an adverse effect is prevented by continuously outputting the detection signal for a predetermined period of time.

The logic circuit 23 is provided, and only when the logical product is true, it is determined that the human body has been detected is as follows.
In order to prevent malfunctions caused by small animals, etc., by setting the size between the detection range of the pyroelectric element 16a and the detection range of the pyroelectric element 16b to a size equal to or larger than a small animal and smaller than a person, an erroneous operation is performed. Operation can be prevented.

Although the present embodiment has been described on the assumption that a pyroelectric element is used for the sensor, the human body may be irradiated with infrared rays emitted from an infrared light emitting diode, and the reflected wave may be detected by an infrared photodiode or an ultrasonic wave. May be applied to the human body, and an ultrasonic sensor or the like that detects the reflected wave may be used.

[0045]

As described above, according to the first to third aspects of the present invention, in order to replace the battery which is a consumable, the main body is removed from the base portion, the battery is replaced, and then the battery is replaced again. Since the main body may be attached to the base portion, the detection range does not change, and it is not necessary to re-adjust the detection range every time the battery is replaced.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, by providing a locking portion to temporarily fix the rotating body,
There is an effect that the detection range can be adjusted to a desired position without the rotation body rotating freely and the desired detection range is not impaired.
