  • Publication number: 20130096437
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for detecting temple hot spot temperature of a live body. Firstly, an infrared thermometer is used to continuously scan a temple of testee's forehead to obtain a plurality of measured infrared signals. Next, the measured infrared signals are sequenced from a greatest to a smallest measured infrared signal. Two output infrared signals closest to the greatest measured infrared signal are selected from the sequenced infrared signals. An average signal value is worked out from the selected infrared signals. Then, the average signal value is converted into a temple hot spot temperature of the testee's forehead. Thereby, not only the test result is more precise, but also the testee can learn the test result sooner.

  • Patent number: 8157126
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a probe cover dispenser, which comprises a base having a probe cover basin; a probe cover cartridge receiving probe covers; a gravitational member applying gravity to the probe covers; and a feeder assembly arranged between the base and the probe cover cartridge. The gravitational member makes a probe cover fall from the probe cover cartridge onto the base, and a feeder pushes the gravitationally released probe cover to the probe cover basin. Then, the user inserts a probe of an infrared thermometer into the probe cover inside the probe cover basin to sleeve the probe with the probe cover. Via the present invention, the user can fit a probe cover onto a probe without using his hands. Thus, the present invention can effectively reduce the pollution of probe covers and the infection of testees.

  • Publication number: 20110216806
    Abstract: An ear thermometer with an ear canal sensing device and a measurement method thereof is disclosed. The ear thermometer mainly comprises two sensors. One is an approach sensor installed on a probe. The approach sensor used as the ear canal sensing device determines whether the probe is inserted into an ear canal. Also, the approach sensor is used as the basis to switch the measurement mode to an ear temperature mode or a second measurement mode, such as the forehead temperature mode, surface temperature mode, or room temperature mode. The other is an infrared sensor used to measure temperatures. After the approach sensor determines the measurement mode, the infrared sensor measures the temperature to obtain a signal. Then, the signal is processed through a control module to be shown on a display unit.

  • Patent number: 7988352
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an improved probe structure, which is installed in the body of an infrared clinical thermometer and comprises a plastic hollow casing having an opening; a curved block annularly arranged inside the opening; a hollow sleeve arranged inside the casing and along the perimeter of the opening; a temperature sensor arranged inside sleeve and below the curved block; a support element arranged inside the sleeve and supporting the temperature sensor; and a thermal insulation ring encircling the temperature sensor and pressing against the inner wall of the sleeve. The thermal insulation ring has an outer diameter larger than a width of the temperature sensor, and an air gap is thus formed between the temperature sensor and the inner wall of the sleeve; the top of the thermal insulation ring has an altitude higher than the top of the temperature sensor, and another air gap is thus formed between the temperature sensor and the curved block.

  • Patent number: 7722250
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a probe cover for an ear thermometer, which comprises: a film cover and a base. The film cover has a cover window able to contact the probe window at the front end of the ear thermometer, a hollow cone able to contact the sidewall of the probe and a strengthened element able to contact the cover window and the hollow cone. The thickness of the cover window is same as the thickness of the strengthened element and greater than the thickness of the hollow cone. Thereby, the present invention can prevent the variation of infrared transmittance caused by the misarrangement and non-uniform thickness of the probe cover film disposed at the front of the probe window.

  • Patent number: 7494273
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an ear thermometer with a simple-structure and easy-operation probe-cover detaching mechanism, which comprises a body having a probe and a detaching element installed to the bottom of the probe. The detaching element can be directly operated by a finger. After measurement, the user can use the detaching element to exert an outward force on a probe cover sleeving the probe and reject the probe cover from the probe. Further, the detaching element may be made of a metallic material, and magnetic elements are arranged at the corresponding positions of the probe bottom; thereby, the detaching element can be automatically restored to its original position by the attractive force of the magnetic elements. Therefore, the present invention provides an ear thermometer, which can easily reject a probe cover from the probe and has the advantages of simple structure and easy operation.

  • Patent number: 7490980
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for calibrating an infrared thermometer, which can obtain a sensitivity of a radiation sensor of an infrared thermometer and a reference resistance of an ambient-temperature sensor of the infrared thermometer. The method of the present invention uses an infrared thermometer to detect two test objects respectively placed in two environments having different ambient temperatures to obtain output signals of the radiation sensor and resistances of the ambient-temperature sensor from the two test objects. Then, the method of the present invention uses the output signals of the radiation sensor and the resistances of the ambient-temperature sensor to work out the sensitivity of the radiation sensor and the reference resistance of the ambient-temperature sensor.
