1. A press detection sensor comprising:

  • a base member having predetermined length and width and also having a predetermined shape along a periphery of a display unit;

    a first conductor having predetermined length and being arranged on the base member, the first conductor linearly extending along the periphery in a longitudinal direction of the base member;

    a second conductor that is arranged on the base member with the second conductor being faced to the first conductor, the second conductor linearly extending along the periphery in the longitudinal direction of the base member;

    a continuous conductive contact body that is arranged between the first conductor and the second conductor and linearly extending continuously around a corner of the base member along the periphery in the longitudinal direction of the base member, the continuous conductive contact body connecting the first and second conductors electrically in response to an external force; and

    a covering member that includes the contact body on the inside thereof, the covering member covering a top of the base member which includes the first and second conductors,wherein the covering member has at least one of flexibility and elasticity.
