ABSTRACT:
A stress sensor for detecting a stress, including a ceramic hollow member, a pair of support members for supporting the ceramic hollow member, and at least one resistor provided on the ceramic hollow member. The ceramic hollow member is deformable according to a stress applied thereto in a direction in which a hollow of the hollow member extends. The support members are disposed at opposite ends of the hollow member, so as to support the hollow member such that the stress is imparted to the hollow member through the pair of support members. The resistor or resistors is/are disposed on one of the inner and outer surfaces of the hollow member. The stress is detected based on a change in the electrical resistance value of the resistor or resistors which is caused by the deformation of the hollow member.
