Abstract: A thermistor layer of the present invention is configured to be disposed in an electrical current path. The thermistor layer comprises a thermosensitive particle, a plurality of electro-conductive particles covering a surface of the thermosensitive particle, and a binder adhering the electro-conductive particles, the electro-conductive particles form an electro-conductive network, at least the surface of the thermosensitive particle is made of a thermoplastic resin, the thermoplastic resin softens at a temperature lower than a temperature at which the binder softens, and the thermistor layer is provided to become highly resistive due to softening and deformation of the thermoplastic resin.

Abstract: A vaporizing type burner including a cylindrical body, a combustion chamber, a fuel absorbing section for receiving a fuel therein and vaporizing the received fuel therefrom, a mixer tube in which a vaporized fuel and a combustion air are mixed with each other to prepare a mixture gas and an igniting plug for igniting the mixture gas radially ejected from the mixer tube wherein a supporting member for accommodating the fuel absorbing section in the cylindrical body is arranged in such a manner as not to allow the fuel absorbing section to be exposed directly the combustion chamber, a vaporizing chamber is arranged adjacent to the fuel absorbing section and the supporting member so as to allow a part of the combustion gas generated in the combustion chamber to be introduced into the vaporizing chamber without any burning flame, an air swirling chamber includes a plurality of guide plates for imparting a swirling force to the combustion air, the mixer tube is communicated not only with the air swirling chamber
