Abstract
The disclosure improves the flexibility of arrangement of a separator provided at an end of a touch sensor unit to ensure electrical insulation. A sensor body included in a touch sensor unit includes a tubular insulator that is elastically deformed when an external force is applied; linear electrodes that are provided inside the tubular insulator and come into contact with each other as the tubular insulator is elastically deformed; a resistor disposed on an outer side of an end of the tubular insulator; connection wires connecting the linear electrodes and the resistor; a separator interposed between the connection wires and preventing contact between the connection wires; a mold part including at least the connection wires, the resistor, and the separator; and a cover member covering at least a part of the connection wires, the resistor, and the separator via the mold part.
