Abstract
A detector assembly is provided and includes a board, a temperature response element and a support coupled to the board to support the temperature response element, the support including an elongate member having first and second opposing ends and being coupled to the board at the first end, guides through which temperature response element leads are threadable, and a saddle disposed at the elongate member second end to inhibit displacement of the temperature response element.
Claims18
A detector assembly, comprising:
- a board;
- a temperature response element;
- and
- a support coupled to the board to support the temperature response element, the support including:
- an elongate member having first and second opposing ends and being coupled to the board at the first end,
- guides through which temperature response element leads are threadable, and
- a saddle disposed at the elongate member second end to inhibit displacement of the temperature response element.
4 more elements
A detector assembly, comprising:
- a planar board;
- a thermistor, including a substantially cylindrical part, to measure an ambient temperature;
- and
- a support coupled to the board to support the thermistor, the support including:
- an elongate member having first and second opposing ends and being coupled to the board at the first end,
- guides through which thermistor leads are threadable, and
- a saddle disposed at the elongate member second end and including a distal end surface formed to define a groove to inhibit movement of the substantially cylindrical part in a radial dimension thereof.
4 more elements
A detector assembly, comprising:
- a planar board to which a detector assembly component is removably attachable;
- a plurality of thermistors, each including a substantially cylindrical part, to measure an ambient temperature;
- and
- a plurality of supports coupled to the board to respectively support each of the thermistors, the supports each including:
- an elongate member having first and second opposing ends and being coupled to the board at the first end,
- guides through which thermistor leads are threadable, and
- a saddle disposed at the elongate member second end and including a distal end surface formed to define a groove to inhibit movement of the corresponding substantially cylindrical part in a radial dimension thereof.
