Abstract

An air flow sensor includes a case (26), a to-be-detected object (27), and a detector (28). The case includes an intake port (26a) and an exit port (26b) through which air is to flow. The to-be-detected object is located at a first position in the case when the air flowing from the intake port to the exit port has lower than a predetermined level of pressure, and is movable from the first position receiving the air when the air has equal to or higher than the predetermined level of pressure. The detector is disposed outside the case and is configured to detect a movement of the to-be-detected object and output an electrical signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an air flow sensor for detecting the presence or absence of air flow such as exhaust from electric equipment such as an image forming apparatus, and an optional device for electric equipment including the air flow sensor. Background technique [0002] Exhaust from electrical equipment such as image forming apparatuses contains ultrafine particles (UFP) such as siloxanes generated when silicon is heated or hydrocarbons generated when toner is melted at high temperatures. The constraints on microparticles are becoming increasingly stringent. Therefore, electric equipment is required to discharge air collected and purified by filters or the like from ultrafine particles in the exhaust gas to the atmosphere. Newly developed electrical equipment is designed to meet this restriction. On the other hand, by adding an optional device with the above-mentioned exhaust purification function to existing electrical equipment, it can...
