An in-cylinder pressure detecting device of a direct injection type internal combustion engine is provided in which a ring-shaped pressure detection element (34) surrounding a fuel injection hole (33b) is provided in the vicinity of an extremity of an injector (20) that injects fuel into a combustion chamber. Since the pressure detection element is provided on the injector, not only is it unnecessary to change the shape or structure of the cylinder head or the combustion chamber in order to provide the pressure detection element, but it is also possible to cool the pressure detection element (34) by fuel passing through the inside of the injector to thus enhance the precision of pressure detection and the durability. Further, since the ring-shaped pressure detection element (34) surrounds the periphery of the fuel injection hole (33b), it is possible to maximize the dimensions of the pressure detection element (34) to thus further enhance the precision of pressure detection while avoiding interference between the pressure detection element (34) and fuel injected via the fuel injection hole (33b). |
