ABSTRACT:
A tilt detecting device of the present invention comprises a bubble tube 21, a light emitting element 22 for emitting detection light and photodetector elements 23 and 24 arranged opposite to each other with the bubble tube therebetween, and at least a light shading plate 35 disposed on an optical path of the detection light 26 and for partially blocking off light components entering the photodetector elements from the light emitting element, whereby a part of the detection light entering the photodetector elements is blocked off and it increase difference and ratio of light amounts between the case where the detection light passes through the air bubble of the bubble tube and the case where it passes through only the liquid portion of the bubble tube, and tilt detection accuracy is improved.
