Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a sensor reel for an electronic thermometer that prevents the cord from being broken when the sensor is stored and also facilitates the storage of the sensor.

Generally, as shown in Fig. 1, an electronic thermometer has a sensor 1 having a temperature-sensing section at its tip and a main circuit section 2 connected by a plug 3, and the sensor 1 can be removed from the main circuit section 2 for storage. It has become.

On the other hand, since the core wire of the cord 4 used in the sensor 1 is thin, the storage method is not appropriate, and if the cord 4 is extremely bent at the end of the probe 5, etc., there is a problem that the core wire is likely to break.

The present invention aims to solve the above problems.

Examples will be described below using figures.

2 and 3 show an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 shows one frame 6, which is formed by vacuum forming on a rectangular plate made of semi-rigid resin such as polyethylene resin. By this, a recessed part 8 is provided along the long side while leaving the flange part 7 around, and a hanging piece 9 shorter than the height h of the recessed part 8 is formed on both long sides, and the recessed part 8 The edge is formed into an arc.

Furthermore, one side of the flange portions 7 on both long sides of the frame body 6 is made wider, and as shown in FIG.
The probe 5 of the sensor 1 is attached to the wide flange 7 by gluing, welding, or grommeting.
and forms a housing portion for the plug 3.

Note that the wide flange 7 is slightly inclined downward, so as to have the effect of holding down the plug 3 and probe 5 when the sensor is stored.

In the figure, 10 is a welded part. Fig. 4a shows the state in which the sensor 1 is removed from the sensor reel, and Fig. 4 shows the state in which the sensor 1 is stored. The probe 5 and plug 3 are housed in the reel, and the hanging piece 9 prevents the sensor cord 4 from floating up from the reel.

As mentioned above, the present invention is to provide a substantially rectangular plate made of semi-hard resin with a concave part along the long sides, leaving a flange around the periphery, and a hanging piece on both long sides that is shorter than the height of the concave part. In a sensor reel for an electronic thermometer, in which the frame is formed by forming a frame, and the back surfaces of the recessed parts of the two frames are joined together, one side of the flange on both long sides of each frame The width of the frame is widened so that the wide flange forms a housing section for the sensor probe and plug, and one side of the flange on the long side of each frame is widened. This wide flange forms a storage area for the sensor probe and plug, so the sensor probe and plug can be held securely without dangling, preventing the probe from hitting other objects and damaging it. This has the effect that the sensor will not be damaged by hitting other objects or breakage will occur at the connection between the probe and plug and the cord, and the sensor will be stored better and look better.

In other words, in the present invention, when storing the sensor, the cord is wound around the outer circumference of the recessed part of the frame, and the probe and plug of the sensor are stored in the storage part formed by the wide flange. Since it is held securely, the entire sensor is housed within the sensor reel, which prevents damage to the probe and breakage of the cord that would otherwise occur if only the sensor cord was wound. Moreover, it has the effect of improving the storage of the sensor when it is stored and improving its appearance.
