DETECTION DEVICE AND BODY-WORN DEVICE

A detection device of a body-worn device including a back cover provided with a protective glass that is a light transmissive transparent section, a holder attached to the back cover and positioned opposing the protective glass, a circuit board arranged between the back cover and the holder, an optical sensor provided on the undersurface of the circuit board opposing the protective glass so as to detect light, and energizing members arranged between the holder and the circuit board so as to force the circuit board and the optical sensor toward the protective glass. By being forced toward the protective glass by the energizing members, the circuit board reliably and favorably presses the optical sensor against the protective glass, whereby the optical sensor reliably and favorably comes in close contact with the protective glass in a stable state.
