Abstract
A sensor is mounted in a vehicle such that the temperature of the sensor is not excessively raised or lowered and the sensor is water-proofed and protected from relatively low frequency vibrations transmitted from the vehicle body. A mounting structure includes an enclosure formed in the vehicle to form a closed space, the sensor, and a water proof case containing the sensor. The case is mounted to the vehicle within the enclosure. The sensor is connected to the case by high-damping rubber.
