Patent attributes
A plate member 101 having flexible portions; plate members 102 to 104 having openings corresponding to the flexible portions of the plate member 101; a plate member 201 having flexible portions; and plate members 202 to 204 having openings corresponding to the flexible portions of the plate member 201 are formed by etching. The plate members 101 to 104 and 201 to 204 are bonded by diffusion bonding process to make first and second flanges 100 and 200. Interconnecting shafts are formed by cutting. The first and second flanges 100 and 200 and the interconnecting shafts are bonded by diffusion bonding process to make a strain generation unit 5. Strain gauges are attached to the lower face of the strain generation unit 5. A stain gauge type sensor 1 is thus made.
