Abstract: A torque sensor is configured so that a multi-pole permanent magnet is fixed to one of a first shaft and a second shaft linked via a torsion bar, a first rotating yoke and a second rotating yoke each having provided at equal intervals in the peripheral direction a plurality of claw portions facing the permanent magnet are fixed to the other of the first shaft and second shaft, and a magnetism detection element is disposed between a first magnetism-collecting yoke and a second magnetism-collecting yoke individually facing the first and second rotating yokes. The first and second rotating yokes are formed into identical shapes, and the claw portions provided respectively on the rotating yokes are alternatingly disposed in the peripheral direction within the same plane perpendicular to the axes of the first shaft and second shaft. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce a cost by having fewer types of parts.

Abstract: A sensor device includes: a housing; a sensor element embedded in the tip end of the housing, the sensor element having on one side face thereof a magnetically sensitive surface that faces a side of the housing and having a pair of terminal plates extending from a side face that is opposite to the magnetically sensitive surface; and a cord electrically connected to the two terminal plates and extending from a rear part of the housing. The housing is die-molded so as to embed therein a holder formed as a single member from a synthetic resin, the sensor element which is held by the holder in a state in which the two terminal plates are formed so as to have a bent portion bent in a substantially U-shaped form and connected to the sensor element and a flat plate portion extending along a plane intersecting the sensor element and connected to the bent portion, and part of the cord which is electrically connected to the flat plate portion of the two terminal plates.
