Patent number: 11054308Abstract: Observation light can be applied to a position for measurement without providing large space in a spectrophotometer, and the position for measurement can be easily known. A slit is disposed at a position optically conjugate with the position for measurement in the spectrophotometer. Light from an object to be measured passes through the slit, travels along a measurement optical path, and is subject to wavelength dispersion by a wavelength dispersing element. An observation light source is retracted outside the measurement optical path at the time of measuring a spectral spectrum. At the time of observing the position for measurement, the observation light source is inserted into the measurement optical path, and emits observation light toward the slit. Alternatively, light from an object to be measured passes through the slit, and is diffracted by a grating. The observation light source is disposed on an optical path of zeroth light.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2018Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: Konica Minolta, Inc.Inventors: Takashi Kawasaki, Hidehiko Fujii, Katsutoshi Tsurutani
