  • Patent number: 4166994
    Abstract: Thermostats for use in electrically heated appliances have a positive off position and are adapted for transition to a low temperature on position within a small amount (approximately one radian) of control shaft rotation. The thermostats comprise a stacked blade assembly including a lower bimetal temperature responsive blade, an intermediate stiff spring blade and an upper less stiff flexible spring blade, with the spring blade having juxtaposed switch contacts thereon and the bimetal blade operating to separate the switch contacts when the set temperature is attained. A control bracket mounted above the stacked blade assembly defines an opening through which a control shaft extends, the control shaft butting against the stiff spring blade and positioning it. The shaft mounts a cam and the control bracket has a depending cam follower for the cam, wherein the spring blade urges the cam against the cam follower.
