A light scattering type smoke detector having an improved labyrinth high in shielding effects for interior detecting means from the exterior light and other obstacles such as dusts, insects or the like than smoke particles is provided. The labyrinth comprises a plurality of outer peripheral shielding elements spaced from one another defining peripheral apertures therebetween, a plurality of inner shielding elements spaced from the outer elements and from one another defining therebetween inner apertures, said inner shielding elements opposing respectively to each peripheral aperture and said inner apertures to each outer shielding element, and a filtering means made of thin plate material perforated to have many small holes and disposed behind the respective outer elements to close the inner apertures while allowing substantially the smoke particles only to pass therethrough. In an aspect, the inner shielding elements and filtering means comprise an integral strip-shaped plate substantially of ring shape perforated at spaced sections providing therebetween non-perforated shielding sections, and the respective outer shielding elements have an inward extended wall to guide incoming smoke toward the filtering perforated sections.

A light scattering type smoke detector comprising a smoke detecting means including a light emitting element and a light receiving element, a light emission controlling means connected to said light emitting element, a detected signal processing means connected to said light receiving element, and a housing for respective said means and including a labyrinth encircling at least said light receiving element for shielding the element from exterior light while allowing smoke to enter the interior, said labyrinth comprising a plurality of outer peripheral shielding elements defining between them a plurality of peripheral apertures, a plurality of inner shielding elements respectively disposed to oppose each of said peripheral apertures as spaced from said outer peripheral shielding elements and defining between adjacent ones of said inner shielding elements a plurality of inner apertures, and means made of perforated plate material for filtering other obstacles than smoke particles to allow substantially only said smoke particles to pass through said inner apertures.
