  • Patent number: 11467027
    Abstract: A vibration sensor is designed to have a pressure-enhancing member, a pressure sensing device and first, second, third chambers. A first through hole is designed to enable the first chamber to be vented to the third chamber such that the first chamber is combined with the third chamber to obtain a communicable air volume. When the pressure-enhancing member is moved to squeeze the air in the second chamber, a sensitivity of the pressure sensing device will be greatly improved.
