Description of the invention (7) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) On the other side, the above-mentioned second terminal 4 is fixed by laser welding or other methods. Projection 4 a. At this time, the joining portion of the second terminal 4 and the other end side of the bimetal piece 5 is not the entire surface, but only a partial combination of the protrusion 4a. Therefore, the bimetal piece 5 is reversed. It does not hinder the operation characteristics when turning. In addition, in the central part of the bimetallic piece 5, a reversing part 5 a that expands into a dome shape to promote the reversal effect is formed, and the temperature of the bimetallic piece 5 is caused by the formation of the reversing part 5 a. The characteristic, that is, the reversing action corresponding to the temperature is surely performed. Further, on the other end side of the bimetal 5, an extended wrist portion 5 b is formed on the opposite side of the fixing position of the second terminal 4 from the side opposite to the formation position of the reversed portion 5 a. The extending wrist portion 5 b is formed in a direction perpendicular to the center line of the fixed portion connecting the movable contact 6 and the second terminal 4, and extends symmetrically into a pair in a planar direction. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs In addition, on the free end side of the extended wrist portion 5 b, an engagement protrusion 5 c that expands into an arc symmetrically on both sides is formed, and the engagement protrusion protrudes through the engagement. The portion 5 c is engaged with the inner wall portion of the groove portion 1 b of the case 1, so that the bimetal 5 is positioned and held in the case 1. At this time, 'the extended wrist portion 5 b' is a fixing portion of the above-mentioned second terminal 4 of the intermediary, and is extended on the side opposite to the position where the inversion portion 5 a is formed. Therefore, the above-mentioned bimetal 5 is incorporated into the above. When the case 1 is inside, deformation of the reversing portion 5 a of the bimetal 5 is prevented, and assembly is facilitated. This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) -10- 1221303 Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (8) Also in the above extended wrist 5 On the free end side of b, there are formed engaging protrusions 5 c that expand symmetrically on both sides and expand into an arc shape. Since the engaging protrusions 5 c are engaged with the inner wall of the groove portion 1 b of the housing 1, It can effectively suppress the movement in the rotation direction of the bimetal piece 5 and improve the positioning accuracy. Also, on the extension wrist portion 5b, a curved piece 5d protruding toward the opening direction of the upper surface of the casing 1 is formed. With the formation of the bent piece 5 d, when the bimetal piece 5 is assembled in the case 1, the bent piece 5d can be held by the assembly bracket, so that the bimetal piece 5 can be deformed without deformation. The above-mentioned casing 1 is assembled to facilitate assembly. The outer cover 7 ′ is formed in a substantially plate shape from an insulating material such as synthetic resin, and is mounted on the opening portion of the housing 1 such that the first and second terminals 2 ′ 4 and the double terminals disposed inside the housing 1 are provided. The metal piece 5, the movable contact 6, the fixed contact 3, and the like are protected from dust and gas. Next, the operation of the thermal response switch of the present invention will be described. The above-mentioned movable contact 6 and the above-mentioned fixed contact 3 arranged symmetrically with each other at normal temperature and normal use temperature are in contact with each other to make the contacts into an ON state. When the temperature is raised for some reason from this state, the inversion portion 5a provided on the bimetal 5 to which the movable contact 6 is fixed will perform an inversion operation as the temperature increases. At this time, the movable contact 6 fixed to the bimetal 5 is driven at the same time as the bimetal 5 to leave the fixed contact 3 so that the contact is in the FF state. In this situation, the reversing portion 5 a of the bimetal 5 that is reversing is the expansion portion of the reversing portion that is in the direction of the fixed contact 3, that is, the casing 1 is a paper size applicable to the country of China Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 public love) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

Description of the invention (9) The bottom surface protrudes. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page.) Moreover, when the temperature drops from this state back to the normal temperature, the reversing part 5 a of the bimetal 5 will reverse as the temperature decreases. Since the position protrudes in a direction opposite to the direction of the fixed contact 3, the movable contact 6 contacts the fixed contact 3 to form a 0 N state, and returns to an initial state. In the structure of the thermal response switch of the present invention described above, the central portion of the bimetal 5 is formed with a reversing portion 5 a that expands into a dome shape when the reversing is performed at a corresponding temperature. , So the reverse operation can be performed reliably. On the other hand, the supporting protrusions 1 a are provided on the inner bottom surface of the casing 1. Therefore, when the temperature of the reversing portion 5 a does not recover due to a slow temperature change (slow temperature decrease) in case of a temperature decrease, the reversing portion 5 a will abut the supporting protrusion portion 1 a to make the above The contact between the movable contact 6 and the fixed contact 3 is kept in a separated state to prevent the contact oscillation of the movable contact 6 and the fixed contact 3 from occurring when the temperature rise is reversed again. [Invention effect] As printed above, printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Due to the thermal response switch of the present invention, the movable contact which is in contact with or separated from the fixed contact is fixed to one end side. On the bimetal sheet of the reversing part of the reversal, an extending wrist part extending from the fixed terminal fixing part to the side opposite to the position where the reversing part is formed is formed, and in the housing, an engaging positioning extension wrist part is formed. Snap-holding part, so when the bimetal is assembled into the shell, the paper size of the reverse part of the bimetal can be prevented from applying the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) -12- 1221303 A7 B7 5. Description of the invention (10) Deformation makes assembly easier. (Please read the note on the back? Matters before filling out this page.) Also, since the extension wrist is symmetrically extended, it is perpendicular to the center line of the movable contact fixing part and the fixed terminal fixing part and is in the plane direction. An engaging protrusion is formed on the free end of the extended wrist to engage with the engaging and holding portion, so the movement in the rotation direction of the bimetal 5 can be effectively suppressed, and positioning accuracy can be improved. In addition, since the engaging and holding portion is formed in a groove portion provided in the housing, the inner wall surface of the groove portion and the engaging protruding portion are engaged with each other, and the bimetal sheet is positioned on the fixed terminal, so it can be reliably positioned and assembled Make it easy. In addition, since the extended wrist is formed with a curved piece that is held when the bimetal is assembled into the case, the bimetal can be assembled into the case without deformation, and assembly can be easily performed.
