Abstract
A stroke sensor for detecting a position of a moving object that linearly moves has: a magnetic field generator; a support member that supports the magnetic field generator; and a magnetic field detecting element that detects a magnetic field that is generated by the magnetic field generator. The support member converts a first relative movement of the moving object relative to the magnetic field detecting element to a second relative movement of the magnetic field generator relative to the magnetic field detecting element. The first relative movement is made along a first linear path, the second relative movement is made along a second linear path, and the second linear path extends at an angle different from the first linear path.
