Abstract

A personal body detecting device makes it possible to determine the presence and absence of a personal body in a detecting zone by sensing infrared rays in the zone with a plurality of infrared ray detecting elements, detecting at a discriminating means a peak level and output time in connection with respective outputs of the infrared ray detecting elements, and comparing them with each other. The personal body having reached the detecting zone in any direction thereto can be reliably detected, and a highly reliable detecting operation can be realized.
