Axiom type
LLM classification basis: structure-based → ⊑
Identity relative to the genus is given by the sensing/actuating mechanism (a bimetallic coil), not a distinguishing function -- it performs the same TemperatureIndicationFunction as any analogue temperature indicator.

Genus (genus proximum)
Most specific superclass — may be a domain class like "Valve" or an IOF-Core root.
BFO/IOF-Core Root
bfo:Object branch
bfo:ObjectAggregate branch
bfo:ImmaterialEntity branch
LLM rationale:
Primary source names TEMPERATURE MEASURING INSTRUMENT as parent, but that ISO 15926-4 chain is not itself enriched in the ontology. 'analogue temperature indicator' (already enriched, genus=Instrument, differentia=AnalogueDial) is a genuine and more specific supertype: a bimetal dial thermometer is, by construction, an analogue-dial temperature indicator whose dial is driven by a bimetallic coil rather than some other analogue mechanism.

Conditions that distinguish
Temperature Measuring Instrument - Bimetal
from sibling classes under genus
AnalogueTemperatureIndicator.
Only what is not already entailed by the genus.
Differentia expression
Differentia (natural language)
LLM rationale:
The one additional structural condition beyond the genus's already-asserted analogue dial: the specific bimetallic-coil mechanism that converts temperature into needle rotation, per both the ISO 15926-4 primary reference to a bimetal measuring element and the secondary (Wikipedia) description of the coil-to-needle linkage.

Consider part-whole relations beyond subsumption:
hasComponentPartAtAllTimes (universal, structurally essential)
· hasComponentPartAtSomeTime (contingent, optional component)
LLM rationale:
Only the bimetallic coil is asserted; the analogue dial itself is already a necessary part inherited from the genus AnalogueTemperatureIndicator and is not re-asserted here.

LLM rationale:
Same measurement-transduction signature as the parent analogue temperature indicator; no new participant types needed. [Corrected 2026-09-10: replaced retired InformationBearingArtifact (ODR-021, resolved 2026-08-08 -- COPI no longer has this class) with the established ICE type(s) actually used by the reused/sibling genus, confirmed against regen_enriched_owl.py's assert_all_classes_anchored gate.]
