Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, an electronic thermometer 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application includes: the thermistor 111 and a temperature measuring chip (not shown), and the thermistor 111 is electrically connected with the temperature measuring chip; the thermistor 111 is used for detecting temperature data in a first time period, wherein the first time period is a time interval when the thermistor 111 is in contact with a detected object; the temperature measuring chip is internally stored with a plurality of groups of temperature change curves so as to be used for matching the corresponding temperature change curves according to the temperature data in the first time period and outputting the highest temperature value on the corresponding temperature change curves. Therefore, a plurality of groups of temperature change curves are stored in the temperature measurement chip, the temperature change curves consistent with the temperature data are searched by comparing the temperature change curves with the temperature data, and the highest temperature value in the corresponding temperature change curves is obtained. Thereby reducing the time required for the electronic thermometer 100 and improving the use efficiency.

The electronic thermometer 100 includes a host 120 and a probe 110. The probe 110 includes a thermistor 111, a temperature measuring chip, and a case 112. The thermistor 111 is disposed on the outer peripheral side of the case 112, and the temperature measuring chip is accommodated in the case 112.

The host computer 120 includes a housing 123, a power supply unit, a display screen 121, and keys 122. The power supply is accommodated in the housing 123, the display screen 121 is disposed on the outer periphery of the housing 123, and the button 122 is disposed at an end of the housing 123 away from the probe 110. The power supply is electrically connected to the probe 110 for providing power to the probe 110. The display screen 121 is electrically connected with the power supply part, and the display screen 121 is used for displaying the highest temperature value of the measured object. The key 122 is electrically connected to the power device for controlling the host 120 to turn on or off. Thus, the host 120 integrates the functions of power supply, display, analysis, interpretation and operation control.

The probe 110 is electrically connected to the host 120, and transmits the temperature data to the host 120 for analysis and interpretation; when the probe 110 contacts with the object to be measured, under the stimulation of the heat source, the resistance change data of the thermistor 111 is immediately transmitted to the host computer 120, and is quickly matched with the temperature change curve in the temperature measurement chip, the temperature change curve with the consistent trend is found for locking, and the highest temperature value of the object to be measured can be calculated without waiting for a long time.

When the probe 110 contacts the object to be tested, the thermistor 111 has a certain resistance value, the resistance value of the thermistor 111 changes, and the voltage output by the host computer 120 is constant. Therefore, the measured current changes in a reverse consistent manner with the resistance value, the resistance value is reversely deduced to change according to the measured current value, and finally the temperature is measured. The higher the temperature of the measured object is, the smaller the resistance value is, the larger the generated current is, and the corresponding temperature value is calculated.

Under the influence of a specific temperature, the temperature rise process of the thermistor 111 follows a curve with a specific rule, and temperature rise curves with different rules are presented at different temperatures. The temperature change curves have the common characteristic that the initial temperature rise stage rises quickly, and the generation trend of the temperature rise curve can be basically presented within a few seconds. Namely, the higher the temperature of the measured object is, the faster the resistance value changes, and the sharper the change trend is shown.

Therefore, the highest temperature value of the measured object can be judged in advance by reading the temperature data of the previous seconds and shortening the original time of several minutes to several seconds, so that the time is greatly saved, and the use efficiency is improved.

The thermistor 111 is provided with a columnar structure or a rod-shaped structure, so that the electronic thermometer 100 can be clamped under the armpit of a human body or held in the mouth for temperature measurement.

The probe 110 has a resistance calibration function, and the temperature measurement chip includes a resistance calibration module having a function of calibrating the resistance of the thermistor, so as to calibrate the positive and negative deviation values of the thermistor 111. The temperature measurement chip is responsible for collecting temperature data and matching with the temperature change curve, so that a result is obtained quickly.

Each thermistor 111 is processed so that there is a positive or negative deviation in resistance value. Therefore, before the electronic thermometer 100 is assembled, the resistance calibration module on the temperature measurement chip of the probe 110 needs to calibrate the resistance value once. For example, the preset standard of the electronic thermometer 100 is 5 Ω resistor, and the actual production is 5.2 Ω resistor, and then the resistance value calibration module on the temperature measurement chip should subtract 0.2 Ω resistor from the deviation as the initial resistance value.

The problem of positive and negative deviations in the resistance values of the probes 110 themselves is solved by an algorithm, so that the resistance-thermal-change effect of each probe 110 is consistent. Even if the probe 110 is replaced every time, the measured data can be ensured to have no deviation.

The resistance calibration module performs calculation calibration by using an algorithm, wherein the algorithm is that voltage is divided by resistance to be equal to current. That is, the voltage output from the host computer 120 is a constant value, the initial resistance value of the thermistor 111 is also a constant value, the resistance value changes under the influence of the temperature of the object to be measured, the measured and calculated current also changes, and when the temperature rises to the highest temperature point (which is consistent with the temperature of the object to be measured), the resistance value does not change any more, and the current is determined. And the equivalent temperature value is converted by the current value at the moment.

It should be noted that, the time required for the temperature of the thermistor 111 to rise to be consistent with the temperature of the measured object is relatively long, so that by using the electronic thermometer 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of sets of current change trend data under the influence of temperature change curves (the temperature condition is accurate to one bit after the decimal point) are stored in the temperature measurement chip, and when the actually measured temperature data is matched with one of the prestored temperature change curves, the corresponding highest temperature value can be directly derived. Thereby reducing the time required for the electronic thermometer 100 and improving the use efficiency.

The probe 110 is detachably connected to the host 120. When the measured object is replaced each time, the temperature can be measured quickly only by replacing the new probe 110, and the temperature measurement can be carried out without waiting for returning to normal temperature like the traditional thermometer. And the disposable probe 110 is also more hygienic and does not have the problem of cross-infection. The detachable connection mode comprises magnetic attraction connection or buckling connection.

The probe 110 is magnetically connected to the main body 120, so that the probe 110 can be removed and replaced after each use. The magnetic attraction point 125 is arranged on one side of the host machine 120 close to the probe 110, the magnetic attraction point 125 is a magnetic iron disc, the magnetic attraction point 125 is also arranged on one side of the probe 110 close to the host machine 120, and the two magnetic attraction points 125 are aligned and attracted, so that the host machine 120 and the probe 110 are detachably connected. The temperature measuring time of the electronic thermometer 100 is shortened, and the use efficiency of the electronic thermometer 100 is improved.

Referring to FIG. 3, a plurality of sets of current trend data under the influence of temperature, such as W1/W2/W3/W4, are stored in the temperature measuring chip, and the unit is accurate to one bit after decimal point. The object to be measured is a human body. When carrying out the temperature measurement with electrothermometer 100 and testee, when probe 110 contact is surveyed, probe 110 receives the heat source influence, the resistance value begins to diminish, the electric current crescent, the change of several seconds is very fast very steep before, consequently as long as catch several seconds's current change data before, can match with the data set that the temperature measurement chip prestores, the identical heat source temperature that can calculate of first half section, need not to wait for and rise to the maximum temperature value, great reduction test time, the temperature measurement efficiency has been improved.
