Abstract

See full text

There is a demand for an inexpensive optical scanning apparatus. An optical scanning apparatus includes a light source configured to emit a laser light flux, a deflection unit configured to deflect the laser light flux emitted from the light source, and a light reception member configured in such a manner that the laser light flux reflected by the deflection unit is incident thereon. The light source emits the laser light flux tilted by a predetermined angle with respect to a horizontal direction toward the deflection unit. The light reception member is disposed above or below the light source, and the laser light flux reflected by the deflection unit and tilted by the predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal direction is incident on the light reception member.
