Sensor

摘要

Provided is a sensor capable of holding a sensing element at a position of good sensitivity without requiring filling of the case with resin. The sensor includes a sensing element, a case accommodating the sensing element and having a detecting face for the sensing element in an outer face thereof, a holder accommodated inside the case together with the sensing element and pressing the sensing element toward the detecting face and a cable electrically connected to the sensing element. At least one of the holder and the case includes a contact portion deformable by a pressing force generated when the sensing element is pressed toward the detecting face.

1. A sensor comprising:
a sensing element; a case accommodating the sensing element and having a detecting face for the sensing element in one of a plurality of outer faces thereof that faces an object to be detected; and a holder accommodated inside the case together with the sensing element and pressing the sensing element toward the detecting face; wherein the holder includes a contact portion deformable by a pressing force generated when the sensing element is pressed toward the detecting face, the contact portion being provided at a position where the holder and the case face each other; the contact portion comprising a projection extending along an insertion direction of the holder and projecting in a direction perpendicular to the insertion direction; and wherein the case and a cable to be electrically connected to the sensing element are integrated by a mold-formed portion using resin.
