(57) A thermostat equipped with a bimetallic element sensitive to a given temperature
comprises a monolithic base open at one end in which two terminals connectable to
an electric circuit are inserted and precisely located, each having one end bent at
a right angle and each carrying a stationary contact, an element carrying movable
contacts for connecting the stationary contacts with one another, a spring housed
in a seat on said base biasing the movable contact element to engage the stationary
contacts, a sliding element for moving and guiding said movable contact-carrying element,
a bimetallic element suitably spaced from the said sliding element for initiating
movement of the sliding element in response to temperature change, and a lid which
fastens the said bimetallic element to the said base with said spacing from the sliding
element.
