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.

The plate has a first lip extending radially outwardly of the cylindrical surfaces of the plate and the hanger has a second lip extending radially outwardly of the cylindrical surfaces of the hanger.

Abstract: Graphics generated by one graphics processor are transferred across a high speed interconnect bus to a frame buffer. The rendered frames from the frame buffer are presented on a display by way of a display interface in communication with the frame buffer. The display interface of another existing (e.g. integrated) graphics adapter/subsystem may be used to present the rendered frames on an interconnected display.

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 and a hollow cone able to contact the sidewall of the probe. The width of the cover window is greater than the width of the probe window. 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.

Moreover, the ear thermometer can store and call out several groups of RFID tags and temperature measurement results of different subjects.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an infrared clinical thermometer device, wherein the ear thermometer casing has at least three light indicators; according to the measured temperature value, the microprocessor inside the casing generates a control signal and outputs the control signal to one of the light indicators; the control signal enables the light indicator to emit light to indicate to the user the state of the measured body temperature. In the present invention, light of different colors are used to indicate to the user the state of the measured body temperature; thus, the user can learn whether the body temperature is in the health state or in a fever state without watching the display but directly from the color of the emitted light; therefore, the operational convenience is greatly promoted.

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.
