Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A temperature sensor includes a temperature measurement unit that is configured to measure a temperature of a measurement object, the temperature measurement unit having a heat-sensitive body and a pair of electric wires electrically connected to the heat-sensitive body; a holding portion that holds the temperature measurement unit and is composed of a single member; and an elastic portion that applies an elastic force to the temperature measurement unit toward the measurement object, the elastic portion being provided between the temperature measurement unit and the holding portion. The electric wires of the temperature measurement unit are pulled out from the holding portion along a first direction in which the elastic force is applied.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1 . A temperature sensor comprising: a temperature measurement unit that is configured to measure a temperature of a measurement object, the temperature measurement unit having a heat-sensitive body and a pair of electric wires electrically connected to the heat-sensitive body; a holding portion that holds the temperature measurement unit and is composed of a single member; and an elastic portion that applies an elastic force to the temperature measurement unit toward the measurement object, the elastic portion being provided between the temperature measurement unit and the holding portion, wherein the electric wires of the temperature measurement unit are pulled out from the holding portion along a first direction in which the elastic force is applied, wherein the holding portion includes an accommodation portion that accommodates the elastic portion and opens in a second direction that intersects the first direction in which the elastic force is applied, wherein the elastic portion is composed of a compression coil spring, and wherein the electric wires are pulled out from the holding portion through a central empty space of the compression coil spring. 2 . The temperature sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the holding portion includes a locking body that locks the electric wires. 3 . The temperature sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the holding portion includes a guide that is configured to guide a displacement of the temperature measurement unit due to a vibration of the measurement object. 4 . The temperature sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the holding portion includes an attachment assurance body that ensures completion of attachment to the measurement object. 5 . The temperature sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the temperature measurement unit includes a protective tube that accommodates the heat-sensitive body and has a heat-sensitive surface in contact with the measurement object. 6 . The temperature sensor according to claim 5 , wherein the protective tube has a rectangular tube shape.
