The body temperature is a human health index value, and the health status of the body's immune system can usually be known by a change in body temperature. Therefore, the thermometer is a body measuring instrument provided in most homes. With the development of science and technology, instruments for measuring body temperature have evolved from traditional mercury thermometers to various electronic measuring instruments. Among them, the most accurate and convenient is an infrared thermometer that measures on the forehead and ears. Since they have the advantages of high accuracy, easy operation and quick measurement, they are gradually becoming mainstream of body temperature measurement methods.

Usually, medicines to be taken when you have a cold or bad physical condition are used after measuring the body temperature. In particular, children and the elderly are less sensitive to body temperature than ordinary adults, so it is necessary to use a thermometer. Furthermore, fever is caused by the central nervous system that regulates body temperature being out of control, or is caused by external bacteria or viruses entering the body. Prematurely, it can even be life-threatening with other comorbidities. If people in the general public who place emphasis on temperature measurement can control the body temperature for the first time, the need for a corresponding thermometer will increase.

The portable electronic device includes a second transmission unit, a control unit, a display unit, and a power source. The control unit is connected to the second transmission unit, the display unit, and a power source, and the second transmission unit is connected to the first transmission unit.

A connection between the temperature measuring device and the portable electronic device is formed by the first transmission unit and the second transmission unit. The temperature measuring device is operated by the power source of the portable electronic device, and a body temperature signal obtained by measuring the body temperature of the measurer is acquired, transmitted to the portable electronic device, and displayed on the display unit.

The improved temperature measuring device of the present invention is easy to operate, can be used at any time just by being plugged in, and has the effect of being able to measure immediately.
