Abstract:
1. A sensor device comprising: a first member that includes a recess; a sensor element that is disposed on a bottom surface of the recess and that includes a piezoelectric body; and a second member that is joined to a peripheral area of the first member and that seals the recess of the first member, wherein a depth of the recess is smaller than a height of the sensor element so that a top contacting surface of the sensor element extends further than a top joined surface of the peripheral area of the first member, an entirety of the top contacting surface of the sensor element contacts with the second member, the second member is inclined from the top contacting surface of the sensor member toward the top joined surface of the peripheral area of the first member, and when a normal direction of the top contacting surface is set as a γ axis direction, and directions which are perpendicular to the γ axis direction and perpendicular to each other are set as a α axis direction and a β axis direction, respectively, the sensor element includes at least one or more of a first sensor element that senses a force in the α axis direction, a second sensor element that senses a force in the β axis direction, and a third sensor element that senses a force in the γ axis direction.
