To suppress the occurrence of rattling of a temperature adjustment member by suppressing an increase in a sleeve even though a housing is made of a synthetic resin.SOLUTION: A temperature adjustment device includes a housing 1 having cylindrical sleeve 20e, a temperature adjustment member 40 having a heating part or a temperature sensitive part to be inserted into the housing from the sleeve, and a clip member 45 for preventing the temperature adjustment member from coming out of the sleeve, and a first energizing member 5. A flange part 40b1 protruding outward is formed at a circumference of the temperature adjustment member, a groove formed so as to go along the circumference in a circumferential direction and a lateral hole whose one end opens to the groove to penetrate the wall thickness of the sleeve are formed in the sleeve, the clip member includes an outer ring part that is elastically displaceable to fit into the groove, and an inner convex part extending oppositely from each other from both ends of the outer ring part to be inserted into the lateral hole, pressing the flange part from a tip side of the sleeve, and the first energization member energizes the temperature adjustment member in the direction of leaving from the sleeve.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】ハウジングが合成樹脂製であっても、スリーブの大型化を抑制し、温調用部材のガタツキの発生を抑制する。【解決手段】筒状のスリーブ２０ｅを有するハウジング１と、前記スリーブから前記ハウジング内へ挿入される加熱部又は温度感知部を有する温調用部材４０と、前記温調用部材のスリーブからの抜止をするクリップ部材４５と、第一の付勢部材５と、を備え、前記温調用部材の外周には、外側へ張り出すフランジ部４０ｂ１が形成され、前記スリーブには、外周に周方向に沿うように形成される溝と、一端が前記溝に開口して前記スリーブの肉厚を貫通する横孔が形成され、前記クリップ部材は、弾性変形可能で、前記溝に嵌る外篏部と、前記外篏部の両端から相対向して延び、前記横孔に挿通されて前記フランジ部を前記スリーブの先端側から押える内側凸部とを有し、前記第一の付勢部材は、前記温調用部材を前記スリーブから退出する方向へ付勢する。【選択図】図５
