Abstract:
1. A manufacturing method of a foreign object detection apparatus comprising: forming an elastic insulator including an attaching section and an inner peripheral portion, on which a plurality of electrodes is disposed in such a manner that each of the plurality of electrodes is away from the others, the attaching section configured to be attached to one of an inner peripheral portion of an opening and an outer peripheral portion of a door that closes the opening, the elastic insulator being deformable by a pressing force from a foreign object that interposes between the outer peripheral portion of the door and the inner peripheral portion of the opening; removing a predetermined portion of the attaching section; coupling a feeding member with the plurality of electrodes, the feeding member configured to supply electricity to a pressure-sensitive sensor that includes the elastic insulator and the plurality of electrodes; and covering a coupling portion of the plurality of electrodes and the feeding member and a portion of the elastic insulator with a covering part.
