Abstract (en)

A temperature responsive switch has an electrically insulating housing, two unitary contact members which can be slid into the housing in opposite directions along a straight contact path and electrically insulating pins which pass through aligned apertures in the housing and each contact member to prevent withdrawal. One contact member has a movable contact on a resilient arm, the other a fixed contact. A bi-metallic disc and transfer pin serve to displace the arm to make or break electrical continuity at a specified temperature.
