Claim 7:
8. A blood pressure measurement device, comprising:
a sensor module including:
a sensor base;
a pressure sensor portion fixed to the sensor base;
a sensor head cover including,
on an outer surface, an opening in a region that comes into contact with a living body and
an inner surface formed with unevenness,
the sensor head cover being fixed to the sensor base and forming a gap portion that communicates with the opening between the inner surface, the sensor base, and the pressure sensor portion; and
a soft portion disposed in the gap portion and, at least, filling up the opening and covering the pressure sensor portion, the soft portion allowing pressure of the living body to transfer to the pressure sensor portion;
an attach portion including:
an opening portion provided at a position opposite the living body, the sensor module being disposed in the opening portion, and
an end surface that curves conforming to a shape in a circumferential direction of a portion of the living body;
a fastener provided on the attach portion; and
a case provided on the attach portion, the case housing the sensor module, wherein
the unevenness of the inner surface is formed by roughening surface roughness;
the region of the outer surface of the sensor head cover that comes into contact with the living body includes a flat surface portion formed as a flat surface with surface roughness less than the surface roughness of the inner surface; and
the opening is formed in the flat surface portion.
