Abstract

A detection device includes: an expanding and contracting base having elasticity; a first base which is provided to overlap the expanding and contracting base, has a Young's modulus higher than that of the expanding and contracting base, and includes a connection portion to which a sensing section is connectable; a second base which is provided on a side of the expanding and contracting base opposite to the first base, and has a Young's modulus higher than that of the expanding and contracting base; a connection member which electrically connects the expanding and contracting base and the first base to each other; and a mold portion which is provided to come into contact with the connection member, has a Young's modulus higher than that of the expanding and contracting base, and has a Young's modulus lower than that of the first base.

Claims (20)

1. A detection device comprising:

an expanding and contracting base having elasticity;

a first base which is provided so as to overlap the expanding and contracting base, has a Young's modulus higher than that of the expanding and contracting base, and includes a connection portion to which a sensing section is connectable;

a second base which is provided on a side of the expanding and contracting base opposite to the first base, and has a Young's modulus higher than that of the expanding and contracting base;

a connection member which electrically connects the expanding and contracting base and the first base to each other;

a mold portion which is provided to come into contact with the connection member, has a Young's modulus higher than that of the expanding and contracting base, and has a Young's modulus lower than that of the first base; and

a wiring having elasticity which is provided on the expanding and contracting base,

wherein the wiring has a recessed portion, and the connection member is fitted into the recessed portion.

2. The detection device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a sensing section which is connected to the connection portion and detects a change in electric resistance of the wiring.

3. The detection device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second base is a coating film.

4. The detection device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the mold portion is provided to come into contact with the connection member, the expanding and contracting base, and the first base.

5. The detection device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the connection member is provided between the expanding and contracting base and the first base.

6. The detection device according to claim 1 ,

wherein, the first base, the second base, the connection member, and the mold portion define a unit, and a plurality of the units are located on the expanding and contracting base.

7. The detection device according to claim 1 , which is a vital sensor.

8. The detection device according to claim 1 , which is a motion sensor.
