Abstract
A sensor module is adapted to be attached to an actuator body incorporating an electric actuator. The sensor module includes a sensor assembly, a sensor cover, and a connector housing. The sensor assembly includes a sensor detection part and a sensor housing. The sensor detection part is configured to detect a physical change amount of a driven body driven by the electric actuator and to convert the physical change amount into an electrical signal. The sensor housing incorporates the sensor detection part. The sensor cover is provided separately from the sensor housing and is attached to the actuator body. The sensor module is configured integrally by attaching the sensor assembly to the sensor cover. A connector terminal electrically connected to a connection terminal of the sensor detection part is insert-molded in the connector housing. The connector housing is provided integrally with the sensor housing.
