Abstract

PURPOSE:To make operation easy and to improve convenience by determining transmission timing according to information to be detected by a detecting means and outputting a timing signal by a timing means. CONSTITUTION:The information such as a temperature are detected by the detecting means 1, converted to signals and impressed to a transmitting means 2 and the timing means 3'. When the information such as the temperature are received from the detecting means 1, the timing means 3' selects the timing signal, which is set in advance, according to which range the information belong. Then, the selected timing signal is impressed to the transmitting means 2. When the timing signal is received form the timing means 3', corresponding to the timing, the transmitting means 2 sends out the information such as the temperature, which are received form the detecting means 1, as a wireless signal. Thus, the operation convenience is improved.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a wireless temperature, etc. detection device that detects temperature, etc., and transmits the obtained temperature, etc. information as a wireless signal.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this type of wireless temperature, etc. detection device, as shown in FIG. It is composed of a typing means 3 for supplying a timing signal for causing the transmitting means to perform transmission, and a switching means 4 for switching the transmission of the timing signal from the timing means. By generating a timing signal, the transmission of information such as temperature from the transmitting means 2 is controlled.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, with the above configuration, when it is desired to start or stop sending out information such as temperature, the switching means is operated and the timing means 3 is forced to generate a timing signal. It is troublesome to have to stop the transmission, and at the same time, if the user forgets to operate the switching means 4 when the transmission of information is no longer necessary, the transmission will continue, which is disadvantageous in terms of energy consumption.

The wireless temperature detection device of the present invention solves the above problems and provides an easy-to-use device.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the wireless temperature etc. detection device of the present invention includes a detection means for detecting information such as temperature, and transmits the information detected by the detection means as a wireless signal. It comprises a transmitting means and a timing means for supplying a transmitting timing signal to the transmitting means according to the information.

Operation With the above configuration, the wireless temperature detection device of the present invention operates as follows.

The detection means detects information such as temperature, converts it into a signal, and applies it to the transmission means and timing means.

When the timing means receives information such as temperature from the detection means, it selects a preset timing signal depending on the range to which the information belongs, and applies the selected timing signal to the transmission means. Upon receiving the timing signal from the 24577 means, the transmitting means transmits information such as temperature received from the detecting means as a wireless signal in response to the timing signal. In this way, in the wireless temperature detection device of the present invention, the transmission timing is determined based on information such as temperature.

Example Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1(a) shows an example of the wireless temperature detection device of the present invention for detecting the temperature of oil for tempura, etc., where 1 is a detection means, 2 is a transmission means, and 3 is a timing means.

Further, FIG. 1(b) is a diagram illustrating this embodiment.

The oil temperature T detected by the detection means 1 is applied to the transmission means 2 and the timing means 3°. The timing means 3' sends out a timing signal when the oil temperature T is in the range of T≧Ta, and does not generate a timing signal when T<Ta (interval is infinite).

When a timing signal is applied from the timing means 3°, the transmitting means 2 transmits the oil temperature T detected by the detecting means 1 as a wireless signal.

Now, if you set the oil temperature Ta to an appropriate value, the oil temperature will not normally be sent, but when the measurement starts and the oil temperature rises and T≧Ta, it will automatically start sending the oil temperature. do. Also,
When the measurement is stopped and the oil temperature drops and T<Ta, transmission is automatically stopped.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the wireless temperature detection device of the present invention, the timing means determines the transmission timing based on the information detected by the detection means and outputs the timing signal. Not only is it advantageous in terms of energy, but it also minimizes interference and is simple and convenient, with no need to worry about forgetting to turn it off.
