The invention relates to a pivot pin type pull pressure sensor. Strain gauges are attached on an inner wall of a blind hole on a strain body, the strain body and a connected end cap form an electrical bin, the electrical bin is internally equipped with a transmission circuit board, the end cap is equipped with output terminals, the strain gauges, the transmission circuit board and the output terminals form pull pressure test units, the strain gauges have two sets, the output terminals are two, each pull pressure test unit comprises a set of strain gauges, one output terminal and a transmission circuit on the transmission circuit board, a surface of the end cap is provided with a pair of notches, a bottom surface of the notches is inclined relative to the horizontal plane, the bottom surface of the notches is provided with through holes communicated with the electrical bin, and the output terminals are mounted on the through holes. During use, one test unit can be started, the other one is the standby one, when the started test unit is in fault, the standby one can be started, work continuity of the sensor can be guaranteed, the sensor is mounted on outdoor work equipment, in rainy days, no water is in the notches.
