Abstract:
1. An electromechanical temperature detection device for a cooking appliance, said device having at least one first, elongated sensor part and at least one second tubular-like sensor part, said first sensor part within said second sensor part and being at least partly parallel to a longitudinal axis of said second sensor part, said first sensor part and said second sensor part being made from materials with different thermal expansion coefficients, wherein an end area of said first sensor part and an end area of said second sensor part are connected with each other, wherein an opposite end area of said first sensor part or said second sensor part is connected to a switching device, wherein said second sensor part comprises a stamped part comprising a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge, which along a longitudinal axis is shaped so that said second sensor part at least partly surrounds an elongated area with said first sensor part therein such that said first longitudinal edge is in contact with said second longitudinal edge, wherein on said first longitudinal edge of said stamped part is provided at least one portion projecting from said first longitudinal edge and wherein on said second longitudinal edge of said stamped part facing said first longitudinal edge is provided at least one recess corresponding to said projecting portion.
