These terms are used primarily to distinguish one element from another. In addition, the term "or" as used herein should be taken to include any one or combination of more of the associated listed items as the case may be.

Fig. 1 to 4 are schematic perspective views of a probe cover for an ear thermometer according to the present invention, and fig. 1 and 2 are schematic top views of the probe cover for an ear thermometer according to the present invention, respectively. FIG. 4 is a schematic view of the probe cover of the ear thermometer of the present invention covering the ear thermometer. The invention provides a probe sleeve U for an ear thermometer T, which is sleeved on a probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, in other words, the probe sleeve U is an ear sleeve. The invention provides a probe cover U for an ear thermometer, which comprises: a conical body 1, an annular elastic body 2 and a flange 3. The conical body 1 has a closed end 11 and an open end 12, and the closed end 11 is opposite to the open end 12. An annular elastic body 2 is attached to the open end of the conical body 1. The flange 3 is connected to the annular elastic body 2, and the annular elastic body 2 is located between the conical body 1 and the flange 3. The tapered body 1 may be made of plastic (for example, but not limited to, Polyethylene (PE) or Polypropylene (PE)) and has a characteristic of being penetrated by infrared rays, so that the infrared rays can pass through the closed end 11 of the tapered body 1. It should be noted that the infrared ray referred to herein is mainly an infrared ray emitted from a human body. The closed end 11 itself has a thickness. Since the closed end 11 is a place through which infrared rays pass, that is, infrared rays mainly pass, the closed end 11 has different infrared ray transmittance depending on the thickness thereof. For the probe cover U, the infrared ray transmittance of the probe cover U is actually the infrared ray transmittance of the closed end 11. Thus, the probe cover U will have a different infrared transmission rate depending on the change in thickness of the closed end 11. In addition, it should be noted that the probe cover U provided by the embodiment of the present invention may be an integrally formed hard earmuff.

The probe cover U further comprises at least one recess 31, the recess 31 being provided in the flange 3. In the present invention, the number of the concave portions 31 is two, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The conical body 1 has a central axis 1a, and the central axis 1a penetrates through the center of the closed end 11 and the center of the open end 12 respectively. The concave direction of the concave portion 31 is toward the central axis 1 a. When the probe sleeve U is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the concave part 31 is clamped on the convex part T1 of the ear thermometer T. The protrusion T1 is provided near the probe T2 of the ear thermometer, and the protrusion direction of the protrusion T1 is parallel to the central axis 1 a.

In addition, the annular elastic body 2 includes a first abutting portion 21 and a second abutting portion 22 opposite to the first abutting portion. The first and

second abutments

21 and 22 can be snapped into the groove T21 of the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, and the groove T21 surrounds the outer surface of the probe T2. The first abutting part 21 and the second abutting part 22 on the probe sleeve U are buckled on the groove T21 of the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, so that the probe sleeve U can be stably sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T and cannot easily fall off.

Next, as shown in fig. 4 to 11, fig. 4 to 6 are schematic perspective views of different embodiments of a probe cover for an ear thermometer according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 7 to 11 are schematic perspective views of different embodiments of a probe cover for an ear thermometer according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the flange 3 has a plurality of detection positions 30, and each detection position 30 may include a positive detection pattern 3a or a negative detection pattern 3b, that is, each detection position 30 may be a positive detection pattern 3a, or each detection position 30 may be a negative detection pattern 3b, but cannot be both a positive detection pattern 3a and a negative detection pattern 3 b. Each of the detecting positions 30 can be one of the positive detecting pattern 3a and the negative detecting pattern 3b, so that the detecting positions 30 are arranged and combined to form a plurality of different detecting combinations, the plurality of different detecting combinations respectively correspond to a plurality of different infrared transmittances, and two infrared transmittances corresponding to any two detecting combinations of the plurality of different detecting combinations are different from each other.

As mentioned above, since the probe cover U for the ear thermometer T is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the ear thermometer T has a plurality of sensing elements T3 corresponding to the plurality of detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. When the probe cover U is fitted over the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the sensing elements T3 can contact the sensing locations 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and thereby detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U. That is, the sensing elements T3 can detect the infrared ray transmittance of different probe covers U by the different detecting combinations of the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U.

More specifically, the probe cover U of the present invention is clamped on the convex portion T1 of the ear thermometer T by the concave portion 31, so that the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U can correspond to the sensing elements T3 on the ear thermometer T. By the design of the concave portion 3 of the probe sleeve U, the situation that the plurality of detecting positions 30 cannot be aligned with the plurality of sensing assemblies T3 due to the rotation of the probe sleeve U when the probe sleeve U is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T can be avoided.

It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present invention shown below, the positive detection pattern 3a means that the flange 3 forms an opening at the detection position 30, and the negative detection pattern 3b means that the flange 3 does not form an opening at the detection position 30. The sensing elements T3 of the ear thermometer T corresponding to the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U can be elastic and depressible mechanical latches. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, that is, in other embodiments of the present invention, the positive detection pattern 3a and the negative detection pattern 3b may be in other forms, for example, the positive detection pattern 3a means that the flange is formed by a transparent material at the detection position 30, and the negative detection pattern 3b means that the flange is formed by a non-transparent material at the detection position 30 (not shown). The sensing elements T3 of the ear thermometer T corresponding to the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U can be photoelectric switches (photoelectric sensors), and the light beams emitted by the photoelectric switches are shielded or transmitted by the light transmission/non-light transmission of the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, so as to detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U.

First embodiment

As shown in fig. 5 to 7, the specific features of the detecting position 30 of the probe cover U on the flange 3 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be further described. In the present embodiment, the number of the detection positions 30 is set to two, and the number of the detection combinations is set to three. The two detection positions 30 are divided into a first detection position 301 and a second detection position 302, and the three detection combinations are divided into a first detection combination, a second detection combination and a third detection combination. It should be noted that, since each detection position 30 can have both the positive detection pattern 3a and the negative detection pattern 3b, the two detection positions 30 in the present embodiment can have 4 detection combinations at most. However, the number of the detection combinations can be adjusted according to the user's requirement, and the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned examples.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic view of a first detecting assembly for detecting positions of a probe cover for an ear thermometer according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The first detection combination means that the first detection position 301 is the positive detection mode 3a and the second detection position 302 is the positive detection mode 3 a. In detail, in the first detecting combination, the first detecting position 301 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is the positive detecting pattern 3a, i.e. an opening is formed at the first detecting position 301; the second detecting position 302 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is also the positive detecting pattern 3a, i.e., another hole is formed at the second detecting position 302. That is, two openings are formed at the two detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. In addition, the infrared transmittance of the first detecting assembly is set to 80%, in other words, when the probe cover U is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the plurality of sensing elements T3 can contact the two detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U to be 80% by the structural features of the two holes on the two detecting positions 30.

As shown in fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic view of a second detecting assembly for detecting positions of a probe cover for an ear thermometer according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The second detection set is the positive detection pattern 3a at the first detection position 301 and the negative detection pattern 3b at the second detection position 302. In detail, in the second detecting combination, the first detecting position 301 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is the positive detecting pattern 3a, i.e. an opening is formed at the first detecting position 301; the second detecting position 302 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is the negative detecting pattern 3b, i.e., no opening is formed at the second detecting position 302. That is, only one opening is formed at two detection locations 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. In addition, the infrared transmittance of the second detecting assembly is set to 79.5%, in other words, when the probe cover U is mounted on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the plurality of sensing elements T3 can contact the two detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U to be 79.5% by the structural characteristics of the holes of the first detecting position 301 on the two detecting positions 30.

Fig. 7 is a schematic view of a third detecting combination for detecting positions of probe covers for an ear thermometer according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The third detection combination means that the first detection position 301 is the negative detection pattern 3b and the second detection position 302 is the positive detection pattern 3 a. In detail, in the third detecting combination, the first detecting position 301 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is the negative detecting pattern 3b, i.e. no hole is formed at the first detecting position 301; the second detecting position 302 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is a positive detecting pattern 3a, i.e., an opening is formed at the second detecting position 302. That is, only one opening is formed at two detection locations 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. In addition, the transmittance of infrared rays corresponding to the third detection combination is 80.5%. In other words, when the probe cover U is mounted on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the sensing elements T3 can contact the two detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U as 80.5% by the structural characteristics of the openings at the second detecting position 302 of the two detecting positions 30.

In addition, it should be noted that the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U corresponding to each detection combination is actually set according to the requirement of the user, and the invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, in other embodiments, the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U corresponding to the first, second to third detection combinations is not necessarily 80%, 79.5% and 80.5% as in the present embodiment, but may be other values, such as 81%, 80% and 79%.

The three detecting positions 30 are divided into a first detecting position 301, a second detecting position 302 and a third detecting position 303, and the five detecting combinations are divided into a first detecting combination, a second detecting combination, a third detecting combination, a fourth detecting combination and a fifth detecting combination. It should be noted that, since each detection position 30 can have both the positive detection pattern 3a and the negative detection pattern 3b, the three detection positions 30 in the present embodiment can have at most 8 detection combinations. However, the number of the detection combinations can be adjusted according to the user's requirement, and the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned examples.

That is, three detection locations 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U form three apertures. In addition, the infrared transmittance corresponding to the first detection combination is set to 80%. In other words, when the probe cover U is disposed on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the sensing elements T3 can contact the three detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U as 80% by the structural features of the three holes on the three detecting positions 30.

That is, only one opening is formed at three detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. In addition, the infrared transmittance corresponding to the second detection combination is set to 80.5%. In other words, when the probe cover U is disposed on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the plurality of sensing elements T3 can contact the three detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U as 80.5% by the structural feature that the first detecting position 301 of the three detecting positions 30 is an opening.

That is, only one opening is formed at three detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. In addition, the transmittance of infrared rays corresponding to the fourth detection combination is set to 79.5%. In other words, when the probe cover U is disposed on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the plurality of sensing elements T3 can contact the three detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U as 79.5% by the structural feature that the third detecting position 303 of the three detecting positions 30 is an opening.

The fifth detection combination means that the first detection position 301, the second detection position 302 and the third detection position 303 are all negative detection patterns 3 b. In detail, in the fifth detecting combination, the first detecting position 301 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is the negative detecting pattern 3b, i.e. no hole is formed at the first detecting position 301; the second detecting position 302 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is the negative detecting pattern 3b, that is, no hole is formed at the second detecting position 302; the third detecting position 303 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U is also the negative detecting pattern 3b, that is, no hole is formed at the third detecting position 303. That is, none of the three sensing locations 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U form any openings. In addition, the transmittance of infrared rays corresponding to the fifth detection combination is set to 79%. In other words, when the probe cover U is mounted on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the sensing elements T3 can contact the three detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U as 79% by the structural feature that none of the second detecting positions 302 of the three detecting positions 30 has the opening.

In addition, it should be noted that the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U corresponding to each detection combination is actually set according to the requirement of the user, and the invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, in other embodiments, the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U corresponding to the first, second, third, fourth and fifth detecting combinations is not necessarily 80%, 80.5%, 81%, 79.5% and 79% as in this embodiment, but may be other values, such as 82%, 81%, 80%, 79% and 78%.

Third embodiment

As shown in fig. 13, the present invention provides a grouping method of probe covers U for an ear thermometer T, which can group probe covers U produced in large quantities according to their respective infrared ray transmittances. The grouping method of the probe covers U for the ear thermometer T according to the present invention is implemented by the probe covers U for the ear thermometer T according to the first and second embodiments. Therefore, in the present embodiment, please refer to the first and second embodiments and fig. 1 to 12 together with the description of the probe cover U for the ear thermometer T, and the related structural features of the probe cover U for the ear thermometer T mentioned in the present embodiment will not be repeated. However, the grouping method of the probe covers U for the ear thermometer T of the present invention is not limited to the implementation of the probe covers U for the ear thermometer T of the present invention, and will be described first.

The grouping method of the probe covers U for the ear thermometer T at least comprises the following steps:

101, manufacturing a plurality of probe covers U, wherein each probe cover U comprises a conical body 1, an annular elastic body 2 and a flange 3, the conical body 1 is provided with a closed end 11 and an open end 12, and the closed end 11 and the open end 12 are arranged oppositely.

And 102, penetrating the closed end 11 on each probe sleeve U by using an infrared beam to obtain the infrared penetration rate of the closed end 11.

103, configuring a plurality of detecting positions 30 and at least one concave portion 31 on the flange 3 of each probe cover U, wherein each detecting position 30 has a positive detecting pattern 3a or a negative detecting pattern 3b, so that the detecting positions 30 are arranged and combined to form a plurality of different detecting combinations, the plurality of different detecting combinations respectively correspond to a plurality of different infrared transmittances, and two infrared transmittances corresponding to any two detecting combinations in the plurality of different detecting combinations are different from each other.

In step 103, a plurality of probe covers U are grouped according to their respective infrared transmittances, and each of the detecting positions 30 on each of the probe covers U in each group is processed.

In step 104, the positive detection pattern 3a or the negative detection pattern 3b of each detection position 30 on the flange 3 can be marked. The marking method can be, for example, to make dummy holes at each detection position 30 on the flange 3 and group them according to their penetration rate, for example, two holes can be made into 4 groups, three holes can be made into 8 groups.

In step 104, processing each detecting position 30 on each probe cover U in each group of probe covers U means selecting a portion to be reserved and shaved off for secondary processing on each detecting position 30 according to the detecting combination to be formed by each group after the grouping is completed. When the detection position 30 is the positive detection pattern 3a, the dummy hole of the flange 3 at the detection position 30 is processed to form an opening, and when the detection position 30 is the negative detection pattern 3b, the opening of the flange 3 at the detection position 30 is not formed.

As mentioned above, the positive detection pattern 3a and the negative detection pattern 3b can also be other patterns, for example, the positive detection pattern 3a and the flange are formed by a transparent material at the detection position 30, and the negative detection pattern 3b is formed by an opaque material at the detection position 30 (not shown). The sensing elements T3 of the ear thermometer T corresponding to the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U can be photoelectric switches (photoelectric sensors), and the light beams emitted by the photoelectric switches are shielded or transmitted by the light transmission/non-light transmission of the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, so as to detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U.

The group dividing method of the probe cover for the ear thermometer and the probe cover for the ear thermometer can be used for enabling the ear thermometer T sleeved with the probe cover U to rapidly identify the infrared penetration rate of the probe cover U, carry out calculation and adjustment according to the numerical value of the infrared penetration rate and further measure the accurate human body temperature through the technical scheme that the flange 3 of the probe cover U is provided with a plurality of detection positions 30, each detection position 30 is provided with a positive detection state 3a or a negative detection state 3b, so that the plurality of detection positions 30 are arranged and combined into a plurality of different detection combinations and the two infrared penetration rates corresponding to any two detection combinations in the plurality of different detection combinations are different from each other.

Further, since the probe cover U for the ear thermometer T provided by the present invention is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the ear thermometer T has a plurality of sensing elements T3 corresponding to the plurality of detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U. When the probe cover U is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T, the sensing elements T3 can contact the sensing positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U, and thereby detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover U. That is, the sensing elements T3 can detect the infrared ray transmittance of different probe covers U by the different detecting combinations of the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U.

More specifically, the probe cover U of the present invention is clamped on the convex portion T1 of the ear thermometer T by the concave portion 31, so that the detecting positions 30 on the flange 3 of the probe cover U can correspond to the sensing elements T3 on the ear thermometer T. By the design of the concave portion 31 of the probe sleeve U, the situation that the plurality of detecting positions 30 cannot be aligned with the plurality of sensing assemblies T3 due to the rotation of the probe sleeve U when the probe sleeve U is sleeved on the probe T2 of the ear thermometer T can be avoided.

It is to be emphasized that: the above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention in any way, and all simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments according to the technical spirit of the present invention are within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
