Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a thermally reacting element plate from moving in unnecessary directions so as to stabilize the plate by locking the edge of the movable end portion of the thermally reacting element plate with a small play to a claw portion formed by bending of a movable electrode plate to its back face side, and also sandwiching the fixed end portion of the thermally reacting element plate between an insulating block formed by molding of a fixed electrode plate with resin and a pressing insulating block together with that of the movable electrode plate, and fixing the fixed end portion by means of calking of each stanchion. CONSTITUTION:A thermally reacting element plate 7 is provided along the back face of a movable electrode plate 3 and the movable end portion of the thermally reacting element plate 7 is locked to the movable electrode plate 3 by the claw portion 3d of the movable electrode plate 3 with a small play. The fixed end portion of each plate 3,7 is sandwiched between a pair of insulating blocks 5,6 together with a fixed electrode plate 2 with no play and securely positioned there and also fixed by stanchions 5a, 5b by calking. Therefore any useless movement of the thermally reacting element plate 7 is prevented and the thermally reacting element plate 7 does not make contact with the inner wall surface of a container 10 even with vibration or impact applied thereto nor cause sound, so the reversal returning movement of the thermally reacting element plate 7 is achieved without any trouble.
