ABSTRACT:
An acceleration sensor has a lever which is swung by the movement of a mass body that is held in a holding member in such a manner as to be movable relative thereto when an acceleration of a predetermined magnitude or greater acts on the holding member in the horizontal direction. The sensor also has a transmission member which is swung by the movement of the mass body and of which the swinging causes the lever to swing, and a prevention member which prevents any upward movement of the transmission member. Therefore, even when the mass body is affected by an acceleration acting in the vertical direction, any affection of the acceleration is prevented from being transmitted to the lever via the transmission member.
