Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent deterioration in a light emitting element along a lower power consumption with a large noise float despite a limited average quantity of light by providing a positive feedback circuit for turning a signal to the side of the light emitting element from the side of a light receiving element to regulate current to be supplied to the light emitting element. CONSTITUTION:A light Ph from a light emitting element 1 changes in the quantity thereof due to, for example, a slitted plate 2 as object to be detected, reaches a light receiving element 3 to be translated to a change in the electric signal and inputted into an amplifier 4. Numeral 5 indicates a resistance for letting a weak current flow to the light emitting element 1 and 6 a positive feedback circuit for controlling current to be supplied to the light emitting element 1 which comprises a transistor 7 controlled in the conduction depending on the output of the light receiving element 3 and a resistance 8 connected in series thereto. With such an arrangement, when a light flux entering the light receiving element 3 is intercepted by a slitted plate 2, current flowing through the light emitting element 1 is reduced while when the light flux entering the light receiving element 3 increases with the movement of the slitted plate 2, current flowing through the light emitting element 1 is enlarged.

According to the detailed description of the invention, the passing object detection device of the present invention has the following features:
Since a positive feedback circuit is provided to return No. 1cii from the light-receiving element side to the light-emitting element side to limit the current supplied to the light-emitting element, the current flowing to the light-emitting element is reduced when the luminous flux incident on the light-receiving element is blocked. Average power consumption can be kept low. When a luminous flux is detected, a strong current flows through the light emitting element, making it easy to obtain a large output. As a result, it is possible to saturate the amplifier more easily than with conventional devices, making it more resistant to variations in component parts such as light emitting elements and light receiving elements, deterioration and temperature changes, and improving the reliability of the device. It is something that can be done.
