1. A pressure sense device comprising:
a tubular fitting member;
a slide member disposed so as to be slidable in a first rotational direction about a central axis of the tubular fitting member and an opposite direction from the first rotational direction along an outer circumferential surface of the tubular fitting member;
a driving device configured to cause the slide member to slide; and
a protruding member configured to protrude into an inside of the tubular fitting member as the slide member slides in the first rotational direction, wherein the protruding member includes:
a hinge portion rotatably supported by the tubular fitting member;
a contact portion disposed in the first rotational direction with respect to the hinge portion and configured to be in contact with the slide member; and
a pressing portion configured to be inserted into the inside of the tubular fitting member when the slide member slides in the first rotational direction in a state of being in contact with the contact portion.
