When the temperature exceeds a threshold value of the bimetal temperature switch, the bimetal temperature switch is disconnected, so that the temperature control switch circuit is integrally in a disconnected state, and the temperature control switch circuit cannot operate. When the temperature descends to the threshold value of the bimetal temperature switch, the bimetal temperature switch is closed, and the temperature control circuit is in an operating state.

[0024] The anti-electromagnetism interference unit 15 is located between the rectifier unit 11 and the first temperature control unit P.

Embodiment II

The second temperature control unit NTC can also be suspended in air.

[0032] When the temperature detected by the second temperature control unit NTC rises, the resistance value is decreased. A constant current source inside the power control chip U1 outputs current outwards. The current flows through the second temperature control unit NTC, so that the resistance value is decreased. The current is constant, so that the voltage on the second temperature control unit NTC is decreased, namely the voltage on a pin 3 of the power control chip U1 is decreased. When the voltage is lower than 1 V, an over-temperature failure is judged inside the power control chip U1. The power control chip U1 cuts off the output instantly, and a power supply is disconnected.
