Abstract: In order to present a temperature sensor which works stable also in a high temperature condition showing only a small deviation in the resistance value of thermistor, the invented temperature sensor comprises a heat resisting cap (5) made of a metal, a thermistor (1) housed inside the heat resisting cap (5) and at least more than one lead wire (4) which is electrically connected with the thermistor (1) and is pulled out of said heat resisting cap (5), said heat resisting cap (5) being formed with an alloy containing Ni--Cr as the main ingredient.

Abstract: The invention relates to a temperature detecting apparatus and an automobile using the same, and is intended to improve the heat response characteristic.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a zinc oxide varistor as a characteristic element of an arrestor for protecting a transmission and distribution line and peripheral devices thereof from surge voltage created by lightning, and more particularly a highly reliable zinc oxide varistor excellent in the non-linearity with respect to voltage, the discharge withstand current rating properties, and the life characteristics under voltage, a method of preparing the same, and PbO type crystallized glass for coating oxide ceramics employed for a zinc oxide varistor, etc. A zinc oxide varistor of the present invention comprises a sintered body (1) and a high resistive side layer (3) consisting of crystallized glass with high crystallinity containing the prescribed amount of SiO.sub.2, MoO.sub.3, WO.sub.3, TiO.sub.2, NiO, etc.
