Abstract:
1. A moving object detecting device comprising: a detecting device body that includes a detection unit formed in a chassis covering the inside of an apparatus and disposed to correspond to a monitoring window of which at least an aperture area or an aperture size is restricted and which monitors a moving object approaching the apparatus and a circuit board unit controlling a signal output from the detection unit and that is disposed so that some optical axes among optical axes having detection surfaces of a plurality of infrared detecting elements, which are included in the detection unit, as focal points pass through the monitoring window and the other optical axes are blocked by the chassis; and an optical member that is formed in an inner wall of the chassis and that deflects the other optical axes of the infrared detection elements to pass through the monitoring window, wherein: the some optical axes among the optical axes of the infrared detection elements passing through the monitoring window are reference optical axes which are directed to the front side of the apparatus and the floor having the apparatus installed thereon to set a detection distance and a detection area of the detecting device body, and the other optical axes are interpolation optical axes used to interpolate the detection distance or the detection area based on the reference optical axes.
