Abstract:
A light scanning device includes: a first semiconductor laser  44 a  that emits a light beam L 1;  a polygonal mirror  42  that deflects the light beam L 1;  a reflective mirror  64 a  that reflects the light beam L 1  deflected by the polygonal mirror  42  and causes the light beam L 1  to enter a photosensitive drum  13;  and a BD sensor  72  that detects the light beam L 1  deflected by the polygonal mirror  42.  The light scanning device scans the photosensitive drum  13  with the light beam L 1  and set scanning timing of the photosensitive drum  13  using the light beam L 1  based on detection timing of the light beam L 1  using the BD sensor  72.  The BD sensor  72  is arranged in the position farther from the polygonal mirror  42  than the last reflective mirror  64 a  that reflects the light beam L 1  immediately before entering the photosensitive drum  13  and arranged inside a scanning angle range α of the light beam L 1  corresponding to an effective scan area of the photosensitive drum  13.

Claim (Index 16):
The light scanning device according to  claim 12 , further comprising\n an f\u03b8 lens disposed in an optical path of light beam from the deflecting section to the reflective mirror arranged farthest from the deflecting section, wherein the f\u03b8 lens includes an optical section configured to transmit the light beam before entering the detecting mirror, and the optical section has focusing property.
