Summary:In the thermoprotector of the invention, an elastic movable conductor is placed between stationary electrodes opposed in an insulation housing One end of the elastic movable conductor is fixed to one stationary electrode The elastic movable conductor is compressed in a longitudinal direction and elastically curved to cause a middle of the elastic movable conductor to be contacted with the other stationary electrode Another end portion of the elastic movable conductor is face joined by a fusible material to the one stationary electrode against a reaction force of the longitudinal direction compression. An insulation spacer is disposed in the insulation housing The insulation spacer forms a space for housing the other end portion of the elastic movable conductor when the elastic movable conductor is elastically released by melting of the fusible material
