    摘要: A polygon mirror includes a resin member, a first surface, a second surface facing the first surface, an inner surface joining the first and second surfaces to surround a through hole extending from the first to the second surface, and includes outer surfaces joining the first and second surfaces. A first segment between the first surface and the outer surfaces is defined as a first reference of a height in a direction from a second segment between the second surface and the outer surfaces to the first segment. The first surface includes a projection that forms the inner surface and projects from the first reference toward a side opposite to the second surface. The second segment is defined as a second reference of the height in the direction. The second surface includes a depressed portion distant from the outer surfaces and depressed from the second reference toward the first surface.

    摘要: An imaging apparatus includes a first reflection optical system and a second reflection optical system having mutually different optical axes, each of the first and second reflection optical systems includes a plurality of reflecting surfaces, a first imaging portion configured to receive an imaging light reflected by the first reflection optical system, a second imaging portion configured to receive an imaging light reflected by the second reflection optical system, a first member, a second member, and a frame. A part of the plurality of reflecting surfaces of the first reflection optical system are reflecting surfaces provided on the frame. Among the plurality of reflecting surfaces of the first reflection optical system, a final-stage reflecting surface configured to reflect the imaging light toward the first imaging portion is a first reflecting surface formed on a surface of the first member.

    摘要: A forming mold for forming a prism by press molding includes a first mold, a second mold, and a third mold. The second mold includes a surface configured to form a base surface of a non-optical surface and is configured to define, together with the first mold, a space in which a material is disposed. The third mold is slidable with respect to the second mold so as to project toward the space with respect to the second mold and is configured to form a recess portion recessed with respect to the base surface.
