  • Publication number: 20170162019
    Abstract: A smoke detector having a light source for generating a beam of light is disclosed. The smoke detector is arranged to transmit the beam along an optical axis and includes a sensor for receiving light scattered from the beam off the optical axis by smoke; and a light trap comprising one or more walls that define a volume for receiving light that passes unscattered from the light source past the sensor along the optical axis. The volume includes a first end closest on the optical axis to the light source; and a second end furthest on the optical axis from the light source. The volume is open at said first end but is otherwise closed, and at least one of the walls is sloped from the first end to the second end, such that the light trap progressively narrows from the first end axially towards the second end.
