This invention provides a novel occupant occupant occupant occupant sensor protection structure and sensor, comprising: a sheet assembly and a wiring harness assembly electrically connected to each other, with the protection structure body disposed at the electrical connection point between the sheet assembly and the wiring harness assembly. The thickness of the protection structure body near the sheet assembly and the wiring harness assembly is less than the thickness of the central portion of the protection structure body.
