Physical quantity measurement sensor, method of manufacturing physical quantity measurement sensor, sealing structure of physical quantity measurement sensor and method of manufacturing cable with resin molded body

1. A method of manufacturing a physical quantity measurement sensor, wherein the physical quantity measurement sensor comprises a measurement portion for measuring a physical quantity, a cable comprising a conductor electrically connected to the measurement portion and a sheath covering the conductor, and a resin molded body covering at least an end portion of the cable on a side of the measurement portion, the method comprising:

arranging the measurement portion connected to the cable in a mold; and

molding the resin molded body by injecting a molten resin toward the sheath through an injection hole formed in the mold,

wherein the injection hole is formed at a position distant from the cable and comprises a central axis inclined at an angle that is less than 90° and more than 0° with respect to the axial direction of the cable at an opening facing an inside of the mold,

wherein the molding is conducted such that the sheath arranged in the mold is at least partially melted by heat of the molten resin injected through the injection hole and is adhered to the resin molded body,

wherein an inner surface of the mold comprises an inclined surface that is directed to the cable and is inclined with respect to the axial direction at an angle that is less than 90°, and the injection hole is formed in the mold so as to have the opening on the inclined surface, and the inclined surface defines a continuously tapered end portion of the mold, and

wherein a distance along the inclined surface from the sheath to the central axis of the injection hole at the opening is at least about 1 mm, and the central axis of the injection hole intersects the cable between a point on the conductor and a point on the sheath.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the injection hole is formed at a position radially sandwiching the cable arranged in the mold.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the injection hole is formed so as to surround the cable arranged in the mold.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the molding of the resin molded body is conducted such that the sheath of the cable arranged in the mold is melted at an entire circumference by the heat of the molten resin injected through the injection hole.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein an angle formed between the inclined surface and the axial direction of the cable is set to 30° to 75°.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a distance along the inclined surface from the sheath to the central axis of the injection hole at the opening is from 1 to 10 mm.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the injection hole is formed in the mold such that a line extended from the injection hole intersects with the sheath.

8. A method of manufacturing a cable with a resin molded body, wherein the cable comprises a conductor and a sheath covering the conductor and the resin molded body covering at least an end portion of the cable, the method comprising:

arranging the end portion of the cable in a mold; and

molding the resin molded body by injecting a molten resin toward the sheath through an injection hole formed in the mold,

wherein the injection hole is formed at a position distant from the cable and comprises a central axis inclined at an angle that is less than 90° and greater than 0° with respect to an axial direction of the cable at an opening facing an inside of the mold, and

wherein the molding is conducted such that the sheath arranged in the mold is at least partially melted by heat of the molten resin injected through the injection hole and is adhered to the resin molded body, and

wherein an inner surface of the mold comprises an inclined surface that is directed to the cable and is inclined with respect to the axial direction at an angle that is less than 90°, and the injection hole is formed in the mold so as to have the opening on the inclined surface, and the inclined surface defines a continuously tapered end portion of the mold, and

wherein a distance along the inclined surface from the sheath to the central axis of the injection hole at the opening is at least about 1 mm, and the central axis of the injection hole intersects the cable between a point on the conductor and a point on the sheath.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the injection hole is formed at a position radially sandwiching the cable arranged in the mold.

10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the injection hole is formed so as to surround the cable arranged in the mold.
