2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a semiconductor type pressure sensor has been provided as a compact pressure sensor capable of accurately measuring the pressure of a fluid. As shown in the vertical sectional view of FIG. 5, this semiconductor pressure sensor has a sensor element 3 fixed to a metal body 1 via a glass pedestal 2. The main body 1 is covered with a cover 4, and the inside of the cover 4 is open to the atmospheric pressure.
A through hole 5 is formed in a mounting portion of the sensor element 3 of the main body 1, and a pressure introducing cylinder 6 is mounted in the through hole 5.
The sensor element 3 and the glass pedestal 2 are joined to each other in an airtight state by anodic bonding, and the glass pedestal 2 and the main body 1 are sealed by soldering. Therefore, the pressure introduced from the pressure introducing cylinder 6 is applied to the sensor element 3 and is formed so as not to escape to the atmospheric pressure. Further, the electrode portion of the sensor element 3 and the terminal 7 attached to the main body 1 are wire-bonded with a gold wire 8.

In this semiconductor pressure sensor measuring method, when a pressure to be measured is applied from the pressure introducing cylinder 6, the sensor element 3 is physically distorted due to the difference between the atmospheric pressure and the pressure to be measured. This strain is proportional to the difference between the measured pressure and the atmospheric pressure. When strain occurs on the pressure detection surface of the sensor element 3, the value of the resistance formed on the sensor element 3 changes in proportion to the magnitude of the strain. The differential pressure between the measured pressure and the atmospheric pressure can be measured by detecting this change in the resistance value, amplifying and outputting it.

However, in the former case described above, the sensor element 3 is brought into close contact with the glass pedestal 2 and the glass pedestal 2 and the main body 1 are soldered, which requires a lot of assembling steps.
