Abstract
A non-resonant knock sensor includes: a sensor body having a metal shell provided with a shell-side cylindrical portion and a shell-side flange portion, a piezoelectric element, a weight arranged to hold the piezoelectric element between the shell-side flange portion and the weight and a fixing member having a third through hole through which the shell-side cylindrical portion is inserted and being arranged to press the weight toward the shell-side flange portion and thereby fix the weight in position; and a resin molded part. The fixing member has formed therein flow paths for introducing a resin into an inner space between the shell-side cylindrical portion and the piezoelectric element. The flow paths are provided in the form of at least one of being connected to the third through hole and being separated from the third through hole and are formed intermittently in a circumferential direction of the fixing member.
