Abstract: Provided is a thermostat including a diaphragm arranged on a core body that is inserted into a base. The assembly is closed at the top by a metallic cover and at the bottom by a flat lid. The thermostat also includes the core body presenting a cylindrical shape and is provided with two radially opposing projections and a guide hole, with the guide hole centrally arranged to receive a pin in a slidably manner; and the base, in an monolithic body, including: two walls in the form of a cylindrical arc, having collars on their top portions and together defining a cradle for said core body; and sides and faces that are adjacent to the sides. Projecting from said faces are terminals for electrical connection. The short terminal is coupled to a contact blade for contact with the long terminal. The blade is actuated by the pin, which is in turn actuated by the diaphragm. The terminals and the blade are co-injected with the base.

Abstract: A thermal and/or magnetic overload trip device for an electrical switching device having multiple poles includes a housing having a housing member configured to receive a plurality of functional elements and being at least partially closable. The overload trip device further including a conductor strap associated with each of the multiple poles, each conductor strap having an associated housing portion, and a rotatable trip shaft configured to rotate between a rest position and an actuating position so as to trip an associated switching mechanism. The overload trip device further including at least one rotatable adjusting element configured to set the at least one of the presettable thermal threshold and the presettable magnetic threshold. Further, the housing member is configured so that the functional elements is insertable therein and is couplable to the housing member.
