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.
Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- an electronic device element including first and second major surfaces opposing each other in the thickness direction, and first and second electrodes disposed on the first and second major surfaces, respectively;
- a conductive first resilient contact member and a first positioning protrusion which are not electrically connected to each other, the first resilient contact member and the first positioning protrusion being in contact with the first major surface at respective positions thereof separated from each other;
- and
- a conductive second resilient contact member and a second positioning protrusion which are not electrically connected to each other, the second resilient contact member and the second positioning protrusion being in contact with the second major surface at respective positions thereof separated from each other;
- wherein the first resilient contact member and the second resilient contact member are in resilient contact with the first and second electrodes, respectively, so as to be electrically connected thereto;
- the first resilient contact member opposes the second positioning protrusion with the electronic device element therebetween, and is positioned toward the periphery of the electronic device element from the second positioning protrusion;
- and
- the second resilient contact member opposes the first positioning protrusion with the electronic device element therebetween, and is positioned toward an inner portion of the electronic device element from the first positioning protrusion.
