Accordingly, the mounting board needs to be increased in size and the arrangement of the LED is restricted. 25 An object of the present invention provides a heat detector capable of miniaturizing a mounting board and reducing the restrictions on the arrangement of a light source device of an indicator lamp. In order to achieve the above-described object, a heat detector according to claim 1 is provided. 5 According to this aspect, at least a part of the visible portion is disposed inside the guard structure and around the detection portion in plan view or the visible portion is disposed in an area protected by the guard structure with the light source device of the visible portion disposed at a position close to the detection portion. Accordingly, the light source device of the visible portion may be disposed at a position close to the 10 detection portion. Therefore, it is possible to miniaturize the mounting board and to reduce the restrictions on the arrangement of the light source device. Further, according to this aspect, the visible portion is disposed in a planar shape around the detection portion and at least a part of the visible portion is visible from the side of the monitoring area over the guard structure, or the visible portion has a planar 15 shape in which at least a part is exposed while not overlapping the guard structure in plan view. Accordingly, the user can easily see the visible portion. According to this aspect, since the visible portion and the detection portion are disposed to be close to each other, the electrical connection position of the heat detector and the electrical connection position of the light source device in the mounting board 20 can be close to each other. Accordingly, it is possible to miniaturize the mounting board and to reduce the restrictions on the arrangement of the light source device. In the heat detector according to an aspect of this embodiment, the visible portion may be configured by a part of a plate-shaped member including a transparent or opaque light diffusion portion, and the light diffusion portion may be disposed to overlap According to this aspect, the visible portion is configured by a part of the plate shaped member including the transparent or opaque light diffusion portion. Accordingly, the light diffusion portion can diffuse the light of the light source device. Therefore, the visible portion can reliably perform a display relating to the heat detector. 5 Further, according to this aspect, the light diffusion portion is disposed to overlap the mounting board in plan view. Accordingly, the distance between the light source device and the light diffusion portion electrically connected to the mounting board can be shortened. Therefore, the light of the light source device can be reliably protected to the light diffusion portion. 10 In the heat detector according to an aspect of this embodiment, the light diffusion portion may be disposed to surround the detection portion. According to this aspect, the user can easily see the visible portion. According to this aspect, the cover portion is provided with an opening that exposes the visible portion.
