Scattered light-type smoke detection apparatus

摘要

To provide a scattered light-type smoke detection apparatus in which internally scattered light in a smoke detection space can be suppressed to improve the S/N ratio. A scattered light-type smoke detection apparatus includes: a smoke detection space that is provided in a light-shielded area that is light-shielded from the outside, into which smoke particles flow from the outside; a light emitter for emitting detection light toward the smoke detection space; and a light receiver for receiving scattered light caused by detection light emitted by the light emitter and scattered by smoke particles flowing into the smoke detection space, wherein the scattered light-type smoke detection apparatus includes an internally scattered light suppressing means for transmitting and guiding part or the whole of detection light emitted by the light emitter and passing through the smoke detection space to a predetermined area or the outside of the light-shielded area to suppress internally scattered light within the light-shielded area.

1. A scattered light-type smoke detection apparatus comprising:
a smoke detection space that is provided in a light-shielded area that is light-shielded from the outside, into which smoke particles flow from the outside; a light emitter for emitting detection light toward the smoke detection space; and a light receiver for receiving scattered light caused by detection light emitted by the light emitter and scattered by smoke particles flowing into the smoke detection space, wherein the scattered light-type smoke detection apparatus comprises, a lens that suppresses internally scattered light within the light-shielded area by collecting part or the whole of detection light emitted by the light emitter and passing through the smoke detection space and radiating the collected light to the predetermined area, and a light-attenuating structure, provided in the predetermined area, for attenuating incoming light guided by the lens, or a light-discharging structure, provided in the predetermined area, for discharging incoming light guided by the lens to the outside of the light-shielded area while light-shielding the light-shielded area from the outside, wherein the lens is arranged between the smoke detection space and the light-attenuating structure or the light-discharging structure.
