ABSTRACT:
A temperature sensor assembly is used for an automatic baking machine which includes an oven and a container disposed within the oven so as to bake bread therein. The oven has a heat device mounted therein so as to heat the container. The temperature sensor assembly includes a shell member, a sensor element, a bias unit, and a housing member. The shell member is attached to the inner wall of the oven and has a heat transfer portion near the container. The heat transfer portion is made of a material which permits heat to transfer therethrough. The sensor element contacts the heat transfer portion of the shell member so as to detect a temperature of the heat transfer portion, and has a pair of conducting legs respectively adapted to be connected electrically to two conducting wires of the heat device so as to signal and actuate the heat device to heat the container when the temperature of the heat transfer portion is below a predetermined temperature. The bias unit biases the sensor element to press against the heat transfer portion of the shell member. The housing member is coupled with the shell member so as to retain the bias unit therebetween and is attached to the inner wall of the oven so as to position the temperature sensor assembly on the oven.
