Abstract
An annular body includes a base, a first resistance wire, a second resistance wire, a first terminal, and a second terminal. The base surrounds a central axis and expands in a direction intersecting the central axis. Resistance values of the first and second resistance wires change according to strain of the base. The first terminal is electrically connected to the end of the first resistance wire. The second terminal is electrically connected to an end of the second resistance wire. The first terminal is at a first position in the circumferential direction. The second terminal is at a second position in the circumferential direction. When viewed in the axial direction, the central angle defined by the first position, the central axis, and the second position is equal to or greater than about 90°.
