TEMPERATURE SENSOR

To provide a temperature sensor capable of improving close contact to an object to be measured and suppressing a variation in temperature measurement.SOLUTION: A temperature sensor comprises: a heat sensitive element part 2; and a crimp terminal 5 including a screw mounting part 3 fixed to an object to be measured by a screw and a bottom surface part 4 contacting the object to be measured having the heat sensitive element part. The bottom surface part curved to be convex on the side of a surface contacting the object to be measured is elastically deformable in the state of contacting the object to be measured; and when attached to the object to be measured thereby, high close contact to the object to be measured is obtained by pressing the curved bottom surface part to elastically deform corresponding to the shape of the object to be measured.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】 測定対象物との密着性が向上し、温度測定のばらつきを抑えることができる温度センサを提供すること。【解決手段】 感熱素子部２と、測定対象物にネジで固定可能なネジ取り付け部３と感熱素子部が取り付けられ測定対象物に接触させる底面部４とを有した圧着端子５とを備え、底面部が、測定対象物との接触面側に凸状に湾曲していると共に測定対象物に対して接触した状態で弾性変形可能である。これにより測定対象物に取り付けた際に、湾曲した底面部が押圧されて測定対象物の形状に対応して弾性変形することで、測定対象物との高い密着性が得られる。【選択図】図１
