PCT No. PCT/JP89/00712 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 26, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 26, 1990 PCT Filed Jul. 14, 1989 PCT Pub. No. WO90/01677 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 22, 1990.An inclination angle detector electrically detects an angle of inclination of an object of measurement with respect to the horizontal direction or the direction of gravitation. An inclination angle detector includes a bubble tube having a transparent container formed such that the inner surface of an upper part thereof has a spherical concave surface. The transparent container has a gas and a transparent liquid sealed therein. A light-emitting unit emits light towards the bubble tube from the upper or lower side thereof. A light-receiving element converts the light transmitted by the bubble tube into an electric signal. An operating unit calculates an angle of inclination based on the electric signal. The light-receiving element includes a light-receiving unit for position detection within a movable range of a bubble shadow and a light-receiving unit for reference outside the movable range. The light-receiving unit for position detection further includes a pair of rectangular light-receiving pieces disposed such that their respective longitudinal center lines extending along the direction of inclination detection coincide with each other. The widths of the rectangular light-receiving pieces are equal to each other and smaller than the diameter of the bubble shadow.
