Abstract
A relative angle sensing device is provided with: a sensor that is contained in a housing in which a communication hole communicating inside and outside is formed, and outputs an electric signal according to a relative rotation angle between two rotary shafts coaxially arranged; an electric cable that transmits the electric signal outputted from the sensor to a device arranged at outside of the housing; an electric cable holding member that is fitted with the communication hole of the housing and that holds the electric cable; and an outer component that is arranged at a position outside the electric cable holding member in the communication hole of the housing. The outer component is provided with an introducing part that introduces the electric cable into inside thereof, and a plurality of exiting parts that make the electric cable having been introduced through the introducing part exit to outside in different directions.
