Furthermore, if there is the object to be measured 100 and a support surface facing the object 100, such as a lower wall surface 204, the temperature sensor 1 can be mounted by simply inserting the elastic bracket 20 into the measurement space 207 between them. In other words, the temperature sensor 1 can be easily attached to the measurement object 100.
- the elastic bracket 20 is provided as a single member in which the connecting piece 21, the first spring piece 23, and the second spring piece 25 are continuous by punching and bending a plate made of a metal material. Therefore, the temperature sensor 1 can be manufactured at low cost.
- the holding pieces 24, 24, which are responsible for fixing the protector 17, are formed integrally with the first spring piece 23, so compared to using them as separate members, the cost is reduced and holding by crimping is reduced. Excellent workability.
- the protector 17 since the protector 17 is supported by the first spring piece 23 on the side of the second surface 173 opposite to the first surface 171, the first surface 171 cannot be brought into direct contact with the object to be measured 100.

If the inclination angle ⁇ 2 is appropriately set, the second part 252 can be brought into surface contact with the locking surface when placed in a fixed position, so that the second part 252 can be brought into surface contact with the locking surface. The frictional force of the second portion 252 against the stop surface can be increased. Therefore, the temperature sensor 3 can prevent or reduce positional displacement in the measurement space 207.

- a locking protrusion 17C formed integrally with the protector 17 fits into the locking groove 206, and the protector 17 is fixed to the elastic bracket 20 by crimping, for example. Therefore, even if a factor such as vibration occurs around the temperature sensor 1, the temperature sensor 1 remains in a fixed position, and the temperature of the object to be measured 100 can be stably measured.
- the locking protrusion 17C included in the temperature sensor 6 can be formed integrally with the protector 17, for example, by injection molding.
- a member corresponding to the locking protrusion 17C can be manufactured separately from the protector 17 and assembled to the elastic bracket 20, but it is better to form the locking protrusion 17C integrally to reduce manufacturing costs. In addition to being able to reduce the amount of damage, the labor of assembly work can be saved.
- the installation position of the locking protrusion 17C on the protector 17 is not limited to the rear end of the protector 17, but may be provided, for example, at the front end of the protector 17, or at any position between the front end and the rear end. You can also do that.
- the elastic bracket 20 may be provided with a structure that replaces the locking protrusion 17C.
