PRESSURE SENSOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE PRESSURE SENSOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pressure sensor capable of accurately detecting pressure, without causing a crack or the like to occur in a soft sealing resin constituting an adhesive due to that an outer lead wire is fixed when a force is applied to the outer lead wire, and then without causing an insulation failure or affecting a pressure detection element with corrosion by immersion of moisture from the outside.SOLUTION: A pressure sensor comprises: a joint member 14 formed with a flow channel 12; a pressure detection element 16 arranged to face the flow channel 12 of the joint member 14; a sealing resin part 68 being filled in a gap formed inside a cover member 66 and constituting an adhesive; and a lead wire locking part 60 for fixing an outer lead wire 62 connected with the pressure detection element 16. A top edge 68a of the sealing resin part 68 is made to be on the same level as a top surface 60d of the lead wire locking part 60 or below the level.
