Abstract
An accelerometer including a flexible pivot, a base to which one end of the flexible pivot is fixed, a pendulum fixed to the other end of the flexible pivot, a pair of torquers generating a torque in proportion to the acceleration applied through the base to the pendulum, and a displacement detecting device for electrically detecting a relative displacement of the pendulum to the base is disclosed, in which the above-mentioned base consists of first and second frames. The first frame is provided with a fixing part to which one end of the flexible pivot is fixed, a fixing portion to which the displacement detecting device is fixed, and an engaging portion to be engaged with an engaging portion provided on the second frame, whereby the assembly of the accelerometer can be made simplified and easy. The accelerometer of this invention is simple in construction and maintains its characteristics unchanged for a long period of time.
