1. A differential pressure sensor comprising:
a sensor chip provided with at least
a sensor diaphragm that outputs a signal in accordance with a difference in pressures borne by a first face and a second face,a first retaining member, bonded facing a peripheral edge portion of the first face of the sensor diaphragm, and having a first pressure guiding hole that guides a first fluid pressure to the first face of the sensor diaphragm, anda second retaining member, bonded facing a peripheral edge portion of the second face of the sensor diaphragm, and having a second pressure guiding hole that guides a second fluid pressure to the second face of the sensor diaphragm; and a sensor housing having
a sensor chamber containing the sensor chip,a first pressure guiding duct that guides the first fluid pressure to a first inner wall face of the sensor chamber, anda second pressure guiding duct that guides the second fluid pressure to a second inner wall face of the sensor chamber, the differential pressure sensor further comprising: a first connecting member, connected to the first face of the sensor chip, having a first connecting hole that is connected to the first pressure guiding hole; a second connecting member, connected to the second face of the sensor chip, having a second connecting hole that is connected to the second pressure guiding hole; a first pressure guiding tube, having one end that is secured in the first connecting hole of the first connecting member, and the other end secured in the first pressure guiding duct of the sensor housing; and a second pressure guiding tube, having one end that is secured in the second connecting hole of the second connecting member, and the other end secured in the second pressure guiding duct of the sensor housing, wherein a first pressure transmitting medium, which guides the first fluid pressure to the one side of the sensor diaphragm, is sealed in the tube of the first pressure guiding tube, as a portion of a sealed chamber, a second pressure transmitting medium, which guides the second fluid pressure to the other side of the sensor diaphragm, is sealed in the tube of the second pressure guiding tube, as a portion of a sealed chamber, a first space of the first connecting member connecting to the first connecting hole to the first face of the sensor chip, wherein the first space is wider than an opening of the first pressure guiding hole, and a second space of the second connecting member connecting to the second connecting hole to the second face of the sensor chip, wherein the second space is wider than an opening of the second pressure guiding hole. |
