1. Technical Field
The invention relates to an improved temperature measuring apparatus, and more particularly to an improved temperature measuring apparatus with easy carrying and timely measuring.
2. Description of Related Art
Accordingly, a body temperature is an indicator of human health. The healthy situation of the human immune system is presented by temperature changes of a human body. Therefore, thermometer is an essential body measuring instrument almost for every family. With the technology development, the body measuring instrument has been developed a variety of electronic measuring apparatus from a typical mercury thermometer. Infrared thermometer, such as forehead thermometer, ear thermometer, is the most precise and convenient one among these electronic measuring apparatus, and the Infrared thermometer has advantageous of high precision, easy operation and fast measuring, and it has become one of the mainstream methods of body measuring.
The medicine taken generally for common cold and illness requires body measuring before oral use, particularly for children and the elderly because they cannot react to the body temperature situation acutely as normal adults can, and thus these people need a thermometer to help themselves. Besides, fever is the central nervous system's failure of control to adjust the body temperature, or caused by external bacteria and/or virus that invades the human body to suffer a continuous high temperature so that the symptom has quickly developed, and might cause other complications that endanger lives. The general social and public sectors rely on the importance of body measuring, and if the body temperature can be provided as a front line control to prevent from missing the timing of medical protection, the need for thermometer is increased as well.
The pen-shaped electronic thermometer available in the market has such many features as quickly measuring the body temperature, LCD display for presentation, clearly indicating the temperature, and rendering the previous measuring temperature data in memory and alarm notice issued after the completion of temperature measuring, rather than the typical mercury thermometer which takes the risk of easily having fracture accidently so as to lead to mercury poisoning and contaminate the environment, and thus it has become an necessity widely used in ordinary families and hospitals, and its supply falls short of its demand as well. However, even the pen-shaped electronic thermometer still need to have such basic parts as battery, display, and memory, and thus the overall volume seems so large that it is not easy to carry.
Therefore, it is a primary objective of the invention to propose an improved temperature measuring apparatus, and more particularly to an improved temperature measuring apparatus with easy carrying and timely measuring.
For the afore-mentioned purpose, the invention discloses an improved temperature measuring apparatus which at least comprises a temperature measurement device and a mobile electronic part. The temperature measurement device is provided with a temperature sensing unit, a signal processing unit and a first transmission unit. The signal processing unit is connected with the temperature sensing unit and the first transmission unit, respectively. The mobile electronic part is provided with a second transmission unit, a control unit, a display unit and a power supply. The control unit is connected with the second transmission unit, the display unit and the power supply, respectively, and the second transmission unit is connected with the first transmission unit.
Besides, a connection of the temperature measurement device with the mobile electronic part is formed by means of the first transmission unit and the second transmission unit. A temperature signal from the person under measurement is measured by means of the power supply of the mobile electronic part providing activation of the temperature measurement device, and it is transmitted to the mobile electronic part and then presented the signal on the display unit. Therefore, the present invention has such effects as easy operation, plug-and-play, and timely measuring.
The features adopted by the present invention can be clearly understood by referring to the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments and the accompanying diagrams.
Refer to
The temperature measurement device 10 is provided with a temperature sensing unit 11, a signal processing unit 12 and a first transmission unit 13. The signal processing unit 12 is connected with the temperature sensing unit 11 and the first transmission unit 13, respectively. The temperature sensing unit 11 can be an infrared sensor, which is used to sense the body temperature signal of the person under measurement. The temperature detection theory of the invention is the same one as frequently seen in an ordinary electronic thermometer. The temperature signal will be converted into an electronic signal through any change in voltage, resistance or current generated by the thermal sensing.
The mobile electronic part 20 is provided with a second transmission unit 21, a control unit 22, a display unit 23 and a power supply 24. The control unit 22 is connected with the second transmission unit 21, the display unit 23 and the power supply 24, respectively. The second transmission unit 21 is connected with the first transmission unit 13. The mobile electronic part 20 can be a cell phone, a laptop, or a tablet PC, etc.
According to the example embodiments shown in
The first transmission unit 13 and second transmission unit 21, shown in
Besides, refer to
It is worthy of mention that the temperature measurement device of the invention has a small volume for convenient carry, and only requires a simple connection with the user's mobile electronic part during measurement such that it can achieve the effects of easy operation, plug-and-play, and timely measuring. Besides, the APP software applications can be downloaded to the mobile electronic part in advance for further utilizing the temperature measurements to record, administer, or integrate physiological conditions of multiple persons under measurement.
Besides, the temperature measurement device 10 is provided with a first plug detection unit 15 and an alarm unit 16, as shown in the embodiment of
Although a preferred embodiment of the invention has been described for purposes of illustration, it is understood that various changes and modifications to the described embodiment can be carried out without departing from the scope and the spirit of the invention as disclosed in the following appended claims.
