Abstract
An electrostatic induction power generator includes a spherical member for making a distance between surfaces of a first substrate and a second substrate facing each other constant. A housing is provided with a first reference surface to which a surface of the second substrate facing the first substrate is fixed and which is a positioning reference for the second substrate with respect to the surface facing the first substrate in a vertical direction, and a second reference surface with which the spherical member is slidably in contact and which is a positioning reference for the spherical member with respect to the surface facing the first substrate in the vertical direction. The spherical member is slidably in contact with a surface of the first substrate facing the second substrate.
