Abstract:
The present invention is to provide a capacitive force sensor that is inexpensive but highly sensitive, and is hardly affected by temperature changes and in-phase noise in the use environment. A force sensor  100 c  includes: a deformable body  10  having a force receiving portion  14  and a fixed portion  15;  a displacement body  20  that is connected to the deformable body  10,  and is displaced by elastic deformation caused in the deformable body  10;  and a detection circuit  40  that detects an applied force, in accordance with the displacement caused in the displacement body  20.  The deformable body  10  includes a tilting portion  13  that has a longitudinal direction  1  and is disposed between the force receiving portion  14  and the fixed portion  15.  The displacement body  20  includes displacement portions D 1  and D 2  that are connected to the tilting portion  13  and are displaced by tilting movement of the tilting portion  13.  The detection circuit  40  includes capacitive elements C 1  and C 2  disposed at the displacement portions D 1  and D 2,  and detects an applied force, in accordance with changes in the capacitance values of the capacitive elements C 1  and C 2.

Claim (Index 10):
The force sensor according to  claims 1 , wherein\n the deformable body is disposed on an X-Y plane in an X-Y-Z three-dimensional coordinate system, the longitudinal direction of the tilting portion is a direction intersecting with the Z-axis, the first deformable portion connects the force receiving portion and one end portion of the tilting portion, and the second deformable portion connects the fixed portion and the other end portion of the tilting portion.
