Fluid sensor
First Claim
1. A fluid sensor, comprising:
- a base body having a vibrating portion;
a piezoelectric element which is fixed onto one surface of said vibrating portion and has a piezoelectric film and at least a pair of electrodes which are disposed in contact with said piezoelectric film;
an electrode terminal which is disposed on the surface of said base body and electrically connected to said pair of electrodes;
a coating material which is disposed on the surface of said base body in the periphery of said electrode terminal;
a presser plate; and
a sealing member which is held between said base body and said presser plate and formed so as to surround said electrode terminal where said pressure plate applies pressure to said sealing member against said coating material;
wherein said electrode terminal is held gas-tightly and/or liquid-tightly with respect to a fluid to be measured by holding said sealing member between said coating material and said presser plate.

Abstract
A fluid sensor includes a base body 2 having a vibrating portion 7, a piezoelectric element 3 which is fixed onto one surface of the vibrating portion 7 and has a piezoelectric film 4 and at least a pair of electrodes 5a, 5b which are disposed in contact with the piezoelectric film 4, an electrode terminal 6 which is disposed on the surface of the base body 2 and electrically connected to the pair of electrodes 5a, 5b, a coating material 8 which is disposed on the surface of the base body 2 in the periphery of the electrode terminal 6; pressure plates 14a, 14b, and a sealing member 12 which is held between the base body 2 and the pressure plates 14a, 14b and formed so as to surround the electrode terminal 6, wherein the electrode terminal 6 is held gas-tightly and/or liquid-tightly with respect to a fluid to be measured by holding the sealing member 12 between the coating material 8 and the pressure plates 14a, 14b.
