Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the number of components and man-hours by fixing a sensor holder to the fitting part of a main body with an elastic member and adjusting the position of the sensor holder itself in the direction orthogonal to the optical axis. CONSTITUTION:Friction due to spring pressure in the optical axis direction is generated at the bent part 1b of a leaf spring 1, and the sensor holder 2 is held at the fitting part 5 of the main body and also movable for adjustment in the direction orthogonal to the optical axis. Namely, the sensor holder 2 when applied with specific external pressure by a jig, etc., is slidable in two dimensions on contact surfaces (2a, 2b, and 2c, and 5a, 5b, and 5c) between the sensor holder 2 and fitting part 5, thereby adjusting the position of the detection area 4a of an actual sensor 4. Therefore, when the sensor position is adjusted, a sensor unit is chucked on an adjusting tool and applied with external pressure from the tool, so that a product is set at a specific position where target function operation is performed.
