Abstract
The invention relates to an optical measuring device () comprising a housing (), in which at least one optical transmitter () for emitting at least one transmission beam () and at least one optical receiver are arranged, a covering plate () closing off the housing and forming a transmission window () and a reception window (), with the at least one transmission beam () emerging from the housing through the transmission window (). In order to provide a measuring device () with an outer surface () which is as flat as possible and in order to achieve a reduction in disturbance signals which can be traced back, inter alia, to the reflection of the transmission beam () on the transmission window (), the outer side () of a covering plate () is arranged substantially perpendicular to the emission direction and the transmission window () is embodied with a tilt with a predetermined tilt angle (α).
