Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic thermometer, and more particularly to an electronic thermometer having measurement end notification means.

  In the past, measurement media such as mercury and alcohol were enclosed in a thin tube to measure body temperature, but there were problems such as the risk of damage and outflow of measurement media due to damage. In general, an electronic thermometer that can easily measure a body temperature using a temperature sensor, an electronic circuit, or the like is used.

  In these electronic thermometers, a temperature sensor such as a thermistor, a temperature detection unit, a display panel, a battery, and the like are housed in a housing.

  However, when measuring the body temperature of infants and the elderly in general households, the measurement method is unfamiliar, so it is unclear whether the measurement has been completed, and accurate body temperature measurement may not be possible. .

  JP 2013-134224 A   JP 2010-276590 A   Registered Utility Model No. 3046612

  JP 2013-134224 A mentioned above relates to an electronic thermometer based on having a control means for measuring a body temperature of a subject based on a resistance change of a thermistor provided at an end and displaying a measurement result on a display unit. When the completion of body temperature measurement is determined, the power supply unit is turned off. However, the LED with a lens is not particularly used to clearly display the completion of body temperature measurement.

  Moreover, in the above-mentioned JP 2010-276590 A, an electronic thermometer that can be easily attached to the ear canal when arriving when it is necessary to check the body temperature of an overseas traveler, the thermometer is checked at a quarantine station. In order to make it possible to check the high-heated traveler, the LED with a lens was not used to clearly display the completion of the body temperature measurement.

  In the registered utility model No. 3046612, the temperature sensor outputs a signal having a magnitude corresponding to the temperature to the temperature detection unit, and the temperature detection unit outputs the temperature corresponding to the signal from the temperature sensor to the display panel. Although it was output, LED with a lens was not used in order to display clearly completion of body temperature measurement.

  On the other hand, the electronic thermometer having the measurement end notification means of the present invention is a measurement end notification means provided with a lens-equipped LED on the top of the thermometer housing, and it is easy for a child or an elderly person who is the subject to himself It is possible to know the end of measurement.

  Or, when measuring the temperature of a large number of patients in a hospital or the like, the nurse in charge or the like can easily use and perform an efficient measurement.

  An electronic thermometer comprising a thermistor 1 at the tip of the housing 2, a slidable switch body 4 at the top of the housing 2, and an LED 44 with a lens in the switch body 4, measured with the thermistor 1. The temperature information is displayed on the LCD display unit 3 on the side of the housing through the temperature detection control circuit unit 5, and the temperature detection control circuit unit 5 detects the end of temperature measurement, and the power source of the battery 6 is supplied to the LED with lens 44 The electronic thermometer is characterized in that it is supplied and emitted from the top of the housing as a measurement end notification means for the user. The LED with lens 44 is integrally provided in the center of the switch body 4, and the lens 43 is transparent. Provided is an electronic thermometer having measurement end notification means, which is made of plastic and can be easily seen by an examiner or a subject. Is shall.

  The temperature detection control circuit unit 5 that outputs to the LCD display unit 3 in order to display the body temperature corresponding to the signal from the thermistor 1 is composed of a known electronic circuit, and the temperature detection control circuit unit 5 The function of detecting the end of measurement is also composed of a known electronic circuit.

  The LCD display unit 3 includes a liquid crystal display, and displays the body temperature of the corresponding subject based on a signal output from the temperature detection control circuit unit 5.

  According to the present invention, the light emitted from a lens-equipped LED (light emitting diode) 44 after the body temperature measurement is finished is easy to see from the outside, so that the examiner or the subject can easily know the end of the body temperature measurement. When measuring the body temperature of an infant or an infant in a general household, the body temperature can be reliably measured even if the examiner is a member of the family.

  In addition, it is easy to use nurses in charge when measuring the temperature of a large number of patients in a hospital or the like, and an efficient measurement can be performed.
