Abstract

A pressure sensor for an evaporated fuel leak detector includes a sensor unit, a case, and a sealing resin. The sensor unit has a pressure receiving portion, a plurality of conduction terminals, and a mold resin portion. The case has a fluid flow path and a housing recess. Each remaining inner wall surface of the housing recess except for an inner wall surface on the conduction terminal side is provided with an inclined surface and a vertical surface, in a cross section along an axial direction perpendicular to a pressure receiving surface of the sensor unit. The inclined surface is inclined inward as toward a pressure receiving side. The vertical surface extends from the end of the inclined surface on the pressure receiving side to define a filling gap in which the sealing resin is filled between the side surface of the mold resin portion and the vertical surface.
