Abstract
A reflection light barrier has a light transmitter/receiver (14) having two adjacent front lenses (18, 19) for the transmitted and received light respectively. A triple reflector (13') is arranged at the end of the light barrier path and consists of a plurality of individual triples. In accordance with the invention the length of the boundary line (12) between the pupils is curved so that on arranging the triple reflector (13, 13') in the near range of the light transmitter/receiver the quantity of light which enters into the receiver pupil (16) as a result of the triple displacement (V) corresponds essentially to the quantity of light received when the triple reflector (13) is arranged in the far region.
