Abstract: A thermostat assembly which includes therein two sets of thermostats connected in series with each other.

Abstract: A thermostat comprises a mechanism for opening and closing contacts by a self-resetting bimetal and the mechanism also includes a reset arm for holding a contact arm in open-circuit position with the contacts kept apart. The thermostat in this holding condition can be reset by hand.

Abstract: A thermobimetal-carrying elastic member of electrically conductive material springingly deformable by the action of the bimetal that recurves on temperature change, and a temperature-control circuit component, such as a thermostat, which uses the elastic member as its sensing element. The elastic member has catches for loosely supporting the recurving bimetal at the both ends, so that the member portion between the catches can follow the recurving motion of the bimetal, undergoing similar springing deformation. This construction enables the overall temperature characteristic of the sensing element or the component to depend generally upon that of the bimetal alone.
