It is known to detect the applied load by judging the tensile stress and the compressive stress applied to the strain detecting element (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Further, in the conventional load sensor as described above, it is necessary to reduce the size of the sensor plate in order to reduce the size, but when the sensor plate is reduced in this way, it is formed on the sensor plate. In some cases, the distance between the input / output terminal and the strain detection element cannot be secured. In this case, it is conceivable that the detection accuracy of the strain detection element is deteriorated due to the influence of stress applied to the input / output terminals due to wiring work or the like.

Description
また、受圧部に接合された受圧柱の側面に、垂直方向の荷重を検出するための歪みゲージと、水平方向の荷重を検出するための歪みゲージとを直接的に取り付け、3次元の荷重分布を検出する荷重分布センサが提案されている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。
このような荷重センサにおいては、近年、検出対象の小型化や複雑な形状が選択されることに伴って、センサ自体の構成を小型化することが要請されている。また、検出される荷重に基づいて行われる制御が高度化されることに伴って、検出対象に印加される荷重を高い精度で検出することも要請されている。
また、上述したような従来の荷重センサにおいて、小型化を実現するためには、センサ板を縮小することが必要となるが、このようにセンサ板を縮小する場合には、センサ板上に形成される入出力端子と、歪み検出素子との間の距離を確保できない場合が生じ得る。この場合、配線作業等により入出力端子に加えられる応力の影響によって歪み検出素子の検出精度を劣化させることが考えられる。
