<p>A mounting for a dished bimetallic actuator (5') comprises a spring metal component (1') having a first part (3') adapted to extend through an opening (7') in the bimetallic actuator and a second part (4') adapted to contact the bimetallic actuator at or adjacent one side (8') thereof, the arrangement being such that, in use, in the cold condition of the bimetallic actuator said first part locates the bimetallic actuator whilst said second part biasses it against a surface (6') whose temperature is to be monitored with its cold condition concave surface facing said surface and, when the bimetallic actuator changes to its oppositely dished state in response to an increase in the temperature of said surface, said one side (8') of the bimetallic actuator is biassed by said second part of the spring metal component towards said surface with the opposite side (9') of the bimetallic actuator moving away from said surface. <IMAGE></p> |
