POWER SUPPLY CONTROL DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND POWER SUPPLY CONTROL METHOD

摘要

A power supply control device includes a moving object detecting unit and a power supply unit. The moving object detecting unit is attached to a processing apparatus body including power supply targets and a controller, and is capable of detecting a moving object moving in the vicinity of the processing apparatus body. The moving object detecting unit has a lower detection range for detecting a part of a moving object that is substantially in contact with the floor, and an upper detection range for detecting a top part of a moving object. The power supply unit is included in the controller and is always supplied with power to monitor approach of a moving object with the moving object detecting unit. The power supply unit supplies, upon the moving object detecting unit detecting a moving object, power to a power supply target that includes a part of the controller.

主权项

1. A power supply control device comprising:
a moving object detecting unit that is attached to a processing apparatus body and that is capable of detecting a moving object moving in the vicinity of the processing apparatus body, the moving object detecting unit having a detection range which is divided into a lower area and an upper area, the lower area being a lower detection range for detecting a part of a moving object that is substantially in contact with the floor, the upper area being an upper detection range for detecting a top part of a moving object, the processing apparatus body including a plurality of power supply targets and a controller that controls the plurality of power supply targets; and a power supply unit that is included in the controller and is always supplied with power so as to monitor approach of a moving object by using the moving object detecting unit, and that supplies, upon the moving object detecting unit detecting a moving object, power to a power supply target among the plurality of power supply targets that are included in the processing apparatus body, the power supply target including a part of the controller other than the power supply unit.
