Mercury thermometer protection system and method

Abstract

A mercury thermometer protection system comprises a fixed shell and a detachable shell, wherein the fixed shell is located at the tail end of a thermometer, the detachable shell is located at the front end of the thermometer, the detachable shell and the fixed shell are each provided with a transparent observation window, a timer, a battery, a buzzer and a switch are further arranged in the fixed shell, and a top cover is arranged at the end of the fixed shell; a counterweight ball is further arranged outside the top cover, a placement space is formed in the detachable shell, and the sum of the length of the detachable shell and the length of the fixed shell is not larger than the length of the thermometer tube body; The thermometer is simple in structure and convenient to operate, the thermometer can be effectively prevented from being broken, and the service life of the thermometer is prolonged. The product is provided with a fixed shell, and a counterweight ball is arranged on the fixed shell; therefore, when the thermometer is used, if the thermometer falls off accidentally, one side of the balance weight ball touches the ground firstly, and the balance weight ball is a rubber ball or a silica gel ball and can absorb a part of impact force, so that the probe of the thermometer and the thermometer are protected from being broken.

[0002] The thermometer is a commonly used instrument in nursing and is widely used in clinical practice. The thermometer is a glass mercury thermometer, which is fragile. If you do not pay attention to the thermometer when taking it out of the thermometer barrel, it will cause damage to the thermometer. However, when the patient measures the axillary temperature , Due to forgetting or negligence, it often happens that the thermometer is broken or lost during the temperature measurement. The broken glass fragments can easily scratch the hands of patients or nurses. The mercury flowing out is harmful to the human body, especially for children, the elderly, and critically ill patients. And patients with mental and mental disorders are more likely to occur, and when using a thermometer, usually the user will hold the holding end of the thermometer and shake it up and down vigorously to shake the mercury column in the thermometer below 35 degrees, but because the thermometer It is relatively small and smooth. When shaking, it is easy to throw the thermometer out of the grip, which is very unsafe.
