Description

FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a thermochromic finger thermometer showing my new design with a typical temperature indication of 80 degrees;

FIG. 2 is a left side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a right side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a rear elevational view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view thereof;

FIG. 7 is a front elevational view of another embodiment of my new design of FIGS. 1-6 with a typical temperature indication of 70 degrees, all other views corresponding to FIGS. 2-6.

It is understood that each temperature indication shown in FIGS. 1 and 7 has a rectangular area adjacent thereto which is visible substantially only when the liquid crystal is at that temperature; hence, normally only one rectangle is visible at any given time.
