Abstract

An attachment structure for a position-detecting sensor includes a sensor attachment mechanism having a rail member which is secured to an outer side surface of a cylinder tube and a holder which holds the position-detecting sensor and which is provided slidably along the rail member, wherein chamfered sections, each of which is chamfered with a predetermined radius of curvature, are formed for the rail member and the holder. As a result, the attachment position of the position-detecting sensor can be arbitrarily adjusted in a stroke direction of a cylinder.
