Abstract
A diaphragm for a pressure sensor includes: a central section serving as a diaphragm body, the central section including: an external surface deformed upon receipt of an external pressure; and an internal surface transmitting a force to a pressure sensitive element inside a housing of the pressure sensor; a peripheral section that is an exterior of the central section and welded to an outer circumference of a pressure input orifice that is provided to the housing; and a step wall provided between the central section and the peripheral section. The central section and the peripheral section are integrally and concentrically provided. The diaphragm seals the pressure input orifice.
