Abstract
A torque measurement device includes a case that does not rotate even during use; a rotating shaft rotatably supported to the case and having a magnetostrictive effect part whose magnetic permeability changes according to a transmitted torque; and a magnetostrictive sensor having a detection part arranged closely adjacent to the magnetostrictive effect part so that a voltage changes according to change of the magnetic permeability of the magnetostrictive effect part, and being supported to the case; and the torque measurement device has a rotation-preventing construction configured to prevent the magnetostrictive sensor from rotating with respect to the case.
