1. An attaching structure of a rotation-detecting sensor, the attaching structure comprising:
(a) a rotation-transferring medium;
(b) a rotation-detecting sensor having:
(b1) a detection portion that detects a variation in magnetic field due to the rotation of the rotation-transferring medium
to convert the variation into an electric signal; and
(b2) a main body having a plurality of side faces;
(c) a flange that is provided at at least one side face of the main body of the rotation-detecting sensor;
(d) an attaching member for the rotation-detecting sensor, the attaching member having an attaching hole into which the main
body of the rotation-detecting sensor is inserted, concurrently with the flange being applied to the attaching member; and
(e) a resin-molded body that:
(e1) covers by resin molding at least one part of the flange and a part of the attaching member to embed them in the resin-molded
body; and
(e2) fixes the main body of the rotation-detecting sensor to the attaching member through the flange,
wherein the attaching member further comprises, in addition to the attaching hole, at least one supporting hole through which
the resin-molded body penetrates.
