Abstract

The invention discloses a laser scanning device which can reduce the number of updates of the memory, and identify a reflection surface of the polygon mirror while allowing the shift of the detectioninterval that is generated due to environmental variations. The laser scanning device includes a rotary polygon mirror, a drive motor, a light detecting portion, a measurement processing portion, andan identification processing portion. The rotary polygon mirror has reflection surfaces and rotates such that light is scanned by the reflection surfaces in sequence. The light detecting portion detects the light scanned by the rotary polygon mirror. The measurement processing portion, in each of light detection cycles, measures an interval between a light detection timing and an output timing atwhich a drive signal that is to be input to a drive motor first after the detection timing, is output. The identification processing portion identifies a reflection surface corresponding to a standardinterval, based on the standard interval and the measured interval, the standard interval being one of intervals acquired in the detection cycles that correspond to the reflection surfaces.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical scanning device equipped with a rotating polygon mirror, an image forming device equipped with the optical scanning device, and a reflection surface recognition method executed in the optical scanning device. Background technique [0002] In an image forming apparatus such as a printer capable of forming images by electrophotography, light emitted from a light source according to image data is scanned on a photosensitive drum by a rotating polygon mirror to form an electrostatic latent image corresponding to the image data on the photosensitive drum. In such an image forming apparatus, the timing of emitting light corresponding to each line of image data, that is, the writing of an electrostatic latent image, is determined based on the timing of detection of light in a light detection unit capable of detecting light from a light source scanned by a rotating polygon mirror. opportunity. [0003] Also, a struc...
