Abstract
A positive thermistor element is supported by being clamped by first and second resilient contact members that are opposed to each other so as to be disposed along a diagonal and first and second positioning protrusions that are opposed to each other so as to be disposed along the other diagonal of the positive thermistor element. The first resilient contact member is located toward the periphery of the positive thermistor element from the second positioning protrusion and the second resilient contact member is positioned toward an inner portion of the positive thermistor element from the first positioning protrusion.
