Light-emitting unit, light-emitting and light-receiving unit and photoelectric encoder
Abstract:
A light-emitting unit includes: a light source; and a reflector having reflection faces of first and second partial paraboloids, the first and second partial paraboloids being spaced from each other in an optical axis direction of the light source, the first and second partial paraboloids having a focal point on the light source, wherein: the second partial paraboloid is between the light source and the first partial paraboloid in the optical axis direction; the second partial paraboloid has a coefficient different from that of the first partial paraboloid; and the second partial paraboloid is positioned on a reflection direction side of a light from the light source reflected by the first partial paraboloid, with respect to a plane that is obtained on a presumption that the first partial paraboloid is extended to the light source side in accordance with the coefficient of the first partial paraboloid.
