Temperature sensor with improved adjustment mobility

摘要

A temperature sensor includes a spring-biased tube of relatively low thermal expansion and a rod arranged in the tube and having relatively high thermal expansion for cooperation with a contact mechanism to control a heat-operated system. Secured to the tube on one end thereof which is proximate to the contact mechanism is a substantially hemispherical end piece for placement in a concave receptacle that is arched in direction of the contact mechanism and traversed by the rod.
