Abstract
A probe has a substantially bar shape, and includes a tip end, a base end, and a body portion that is located between the tip end and the base end and has a thickness in a thickness direction orthogonal to an axial direction of the substantially bar shape thinner than the tip end. The body portion includes a slope surface that is continuous with the tip end and is inclined with respect to the axial direction in a direction in which the thickness becomes gradually thinner with increasing distance from the tip end. A first region having a surface shape that bulges outward is provided in at least a part of the slope surface.
Claims18
A probe having a substantially bar shape, comprising:
- one end;
- another end;
- and
- a body portion that is located between the one end and the other end and has a thickness in a thickness direction orthogonal to an axial direction of the substantially bar shape thinner than the one end,
- wherein the body portion includes a first slope surface that is continuous with the one end and is inclined with respect to the axial direction in a direction in which the thickness becomes gradually thinner with increasing distance from the one end, and
- wherein a first region having a surface shape that bulges outward is provided in at least a part of the first slope surface and wherein the first slope surface and the first region are provided on one same side of the body portion so that the surface shape bulges outward with respect to the same side of the body portion, and
- wherein the one end, the other end, and the body portion are coaxial with the axial direction.
