Abstract
A sensor support structure includes a connection portion positioned in the cylinder head cover of an internal combustion engine from an outer surface of the cylinder head cover to a position where the connection portion comes in contact with a cylinder head of the internal combustion engine, an arm portion extending from an outer end side of the connection portion toward an outer side of the connection portion in a radial direction, a sensor support portion provided at an extending end of the arm portion, the sensor support portion being formed to protrude in a direction away from a side where the cylinder head is positioned, the sensor support portion supporting a sensor that detects a rotation of a camshaft of the internal combustion engine; and a restriction portion restricting a movement of the arm portion relative to the cylinder head cover in a circumferential direction about the connection portion.
