1. A temperature sensor comprising:
a temperature-sensitive element that detects a temperature of a measurement target;
a main body part that holds the temperature-sensitive element;
a clamp part that is capable of being attached to and detached from a fixing target area along a first direction and capable of fixing the main body part to the fixing target area in a state of being mounted to the fixing target area; and
a connector that is provided at an end part of a wiring material exhibiting conductivity and allows, in a state of being fitted to the main body part, the temperature-sensitive element and the wiring material to be electrically connected, wherein
the main body part includes:
a holding part that extends along an insertion direction aligned with the first direction, the holding part holding the temperature-sensitive element on a tip side in the insertion direction and being positioned inside the clamp part by being inserted inside the clamp part along the insertion direction; and
a connector part to which the connector is capable of being fitted in a state of being fixed to the fixing target area via the clamp part,
the clamp part includes, in a state of being mounted to the fixing target area, a pair of window parts for exposing the temperature-sensitive element held by the holding part to outside of the clamp part, the pair of window parts being provided at end parts positioned inside the fixing target area and being formed along a direction intersecting with the first direction,
the holding part includes a pair of protection wall parts positioned by sandwiching the window parts in a state of being inserted inside the clamp part, and
an end part of the protection wall part on a tip side in the insertion direction is positioned by protruding more to the tip side than an end part of the temperature-sensitive element on the tip side does.
