Abstract
A cylinder internal pressure sensor includes: a housing; a diaphragm having flexibility and being joined to one end of the housing; a sensor element configured to change an output signal according to deformation of the diaphragm; and an opposed member housed inside the housing so as to face the diaphragm. The opposed member defines a housing room between the diaphragm and the opposed member, and includes: a cylindrical tube part being a layered structure with an inner tube and an outer tube; and a seal part provided inside the tube part. The sensor element is fixed to the seal part. The tube part is provided with a spring rate reducing portion that is provided between the diaphragm and a position where the inner tube and the outer tube are joined together.
