ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic sensor with stabilized transmitting/receiving characteristics capable of achieving a desired directivity easily and at low cost and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The ultrasonic sensor includes a base composed of a synthetic resin. The base includes a cylindrical side portion and a ring-shaped bent portion extending inward from a first opening of the side portion. A ring-shaped recessed portion is provided in the inner surface of the bent portion adjacent to the end of the bent portion. A piezoelectric element is disposed on the recessed portion. A sound absorber and a weight are fitted and fixed in the base. An outer casing composed of a synthetic resin is provided so as to cover the outer surface of the piezoelectric element and the outer surface of the base.
