Abstract
A vibration sensor for an automotive vehicle having a piezoelectric element of diaphragm type for detecting mechanical vibrations from an internal combustion engine such as knocking frequency. The piezoelectric element is formed within a holder of plastic or the like and bonded thereto in a manner to accurately regulate the clamping pressure at the element periphery and regulate the vibration area thereof to accurately regulate the resonant frequency of the vibration sensor.
