Abstract

A force sensor includes a sensor chip that detects displacements in multiple axial directions, and a strain body that transfers force applied thereto to the sensor chip. The strain body includes a sensor chip mount on which the sensor chip is mounted, multiple columns disposed around and apart from the sensor chip mount, and connecting beams via which the sensor chip mount is fixed to the columns.
