Claim:
1. A load detector comprising: a load sensor having a projective pressure receiving part; a case in which the load sensor is placed with the pressure receiving part facing toward an upper surface of the case wherein a convex part is on the upper surface of the case; an elastic body placed on the same side as an upper surface of the load sensor, the elastic body configured to receive a load and press the load sensor in a height direction of the load sensor wherein: an upper surface of the elastic body projects beyond the convex part and the convex part is a stopper that restricts a displacement of the elastic body when a load is applied to the elastic body; the elastic body has a thick part at a position at which the thick part faces the load sensor in a height direction of the load sensor and has a peripheral part around the thick part; the peripheral part is thinner than the thick part; an upper surface of the thick part projects beyond the convex part; and the convex part passes through the peripheral part and secures the elastic body and case together; and a plate provided between the elastic body and the load sensor, the plate being more rigid than the elastic body wherein the plate lies in an overlapping manner under the peripheral part.
