PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a detector which constitutes a fuel gauge of a vehicle such as a motor cycle, and with which it is possible to detect the inclination or acceleration, etc., occurring in the vehicle.SOLUTION: A composite sensor 1 equipped with a long bar-like rod 3, a sensor body 4 to which the rod 3 is fixed and a computation unit 5 is provided inside a fuel tank 2. The sensor body 4 includes a deformation part 4a that is deformed by the motion of the rod 3. Since a buoyant force corresponding to the amount of gasoline in the fuel tank 2 is applied to the rod 3, the output of the sensor body 4 makes it possible to detect the remaining amount of fuel. Furthermore, as the output value of the sensor body 4 changes in correspondence to the strength or direction of movement of the rod 3, it is possible for the computation unit 5 to detect the inclination or acceleration, etc., of a vehicle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】自動二輪車等の車両の燃料計となり、且つ、車両に生じる傾きや加速度等を検出可能な検知装置を提供する。【解決手段】燃料タンク2内に、長尺棒状のロッド3と、ロッド3が固定されたセンサ本体4と、演算部5とを備えた複合センサ1を設ける。センサ本体4にはロッド3の動きによって変形する変形部4aを有する。ロッド3には燃料タンク2内のガソリンの量に応じた浮力が加えられるので、センサ本体4の出力で燃料の残量を検出できる。また、ロッド3の移動の強さや方向に応じてセンサ本体4の出力値が変化するので、演算部5では車両の傾きや加速度等を検出できる。【選択図】図1
