Abstract:
A detecting apparatus includes: a light emitting element which emits light toward a detection material; a light receiving element which receives reflected light from the detection material; and an apparatus main body having an opening/closing member which opens and closes an opening through which light emitted from the light emitting element and reflected light from the detection material pass through, the apparatus main body being capable of moving between a first position where the apparatus main body comes into contact with the detection material and a second position where the apparatus main body separates from the detection material, and the opening/closing member being configured to open when the apparatus main body moves to the first position and to close when the apparatus main body moves to the second position.

Claim (Index 15):
The detecting apparatus according to  claim 14 , wherein\n the control portion receives reflected light from the detection material a plurality of times by the light receiving element during the opening/closing operation of the opening/closing member, determines that the apparatus main body is at the first position in a period of a prescribed portion of a period during which the light receiving element outputs the first output, and determines that the apparatus main body is at the second position in a period of a prescribed portion of a period during which the light receiving element outputs the second output.
