Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of temperature measuring instrument manufacturing technology, specifically an electronic thermometer that facilitates temperature measurement. Background Technology

[0002] A thermometer is a medical tool specifically designed to measure human body temperature. It senses the heat emitted by the human body or an object and converts it into a readable numerical value to help determine whether there are abnormal body temperature conditions such as fever or hypothermia.

[0003] Currently, existing thermometers often require manual fixation of the measuring end to the user's forehead, armpit, ear canal, mouth, or other areas when taking a temperature reading, and the user's temperature is then read through the thermometer's display.

[0004] While the methods described above can effectively detect a patient's body temperature, some younger patients often resist the thermometer, making it difficult to use it by placing it under the armpit or in the mouth, which require the patient's cooperation to hold it in place. When the patient's guardian or medical staff manually fixes the thermometer to the patient's forehead, part of the measuring end is often in contact with the outside air, and the assistant's hand can easily come into contact with the measuring area during manual fixation. This often leads to a significant error between the measured temperature and the actual body temperature. Therefore, a convenient electronic thermometer is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by designing an electronic thermometer that facilitates temperature measurement by fixing a patch to the patient's forehead using a patch fixing mechanism. This solves the problem of difficulty in measuring the body temperature of young children who are uncooperative.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the following technical solution is adopted:

[0007] An electronic thermometer for convenient temperature measurement includes a patch, a temperature sensor, a temperature display screen, and a patch fixing mechanism. The patch and the temperature sensor are connected via a data cable, and the temperature sensor and the temperature display screen are connected via a signal.

[0008] Preferably, the patch fixing mechanism includes a mounting frame, a fixing rod, a rotating rod, and a patch assembly. The mounting frame is arc-shaped, and its inner arc surface is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the patch. The mounting frame is a hollow structure, and its inner wall is fixedly connected to both ends of the fixing rod. The outer wall of the fixing rod passes through the fixing rod and is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating rod. The rotating rod and the fixing rod are concentrically arranged. The inner wall of the rotating rod has a mounting groove, and the inner wall of the mounting groove is elastically connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod by a torsion spring. The patch assembly is located on the outside of the rotating rod, and one end of the patch assembly is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod. Two sets of patch assemblies are provided, and the two sets of patch assemblies are connected by a patch assembly fixing assembly.

[0009] Preferably, the applicator assembly includes a wrapping tape, one end of which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, an applicator block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the wrapping tape, and ventilation holes are provided on the inner wall of the wrapping tape.

[0010] Preferably, the device includes a mounting housing, the inner wall of which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the data cable, and the temperature sensor and temperature display screen are both placed inside the mounting housing.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing component of the bonding assembly includes two protrusions, and the two protrusions are respectively fixedly connected to the ends of different winding tapes away from the rotating rod. The ends of the protrusions away from the winding tapes are rotatably connected to connecting blocks, and the number of connecting blocks is also set to two. The two connecting blocks are respectively fixedly connected to the two protrusions. One of the connecting blocks has an insertion hole on its inner wall, and a limit ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the insertion hole. The other connecting block has an insertion rod fixedly connected to its outer wall, and a limit ball is fixedly connected to the end of the insertion rod away from the connecting block.

[0012] Preferably, the diameter of the middle part of the rotating rod is smaller than the diameter of both ends, and the rotating rod is provided with a smooth gradient region that gradually changes from both ends to the middle.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting groove is located in the area with a larger diameter of the rotating rod, the mounting groove is cylindrical, and the mounting groove is concentrically arranged with the rotating rod.

[0014] Preferably, the inner diameter of the limiting ring is smaller than the diameter of the limiting ball, and the inner diameter of the limiting ring is larger than the diameter of the insertion rod.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0016] 1. This application uses a patch fixing mechanism to fix the patch to the patient's forehead, so that the patch can directly contact the patient's forehead without the need for continuous control by a caregiver or medical staff, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the final measured temperature.

[0017] 2. This application ensures that when the wrapping tape, head patch, and ventilation holes are designed, only the head patch can contact the child's head, while the wrapping tape can maintain a distance from the child's head. The ventilation holes also enhance the heat dissipation effect of the fixed position on the child's head, preventing sweat accumulation at the fixed position. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Reference Figures 1-8An electronic thermometer for convenient temperature measurement includes a patch 1, a temperature sensor 2, a temperature display screen 3, and a patch fixing mechanism 4. The patch 1 and the temperature sensor 2 are connected by a data cable 5. The area of ​​the patch 1 that contacts the human body is made of graphene. The material is designed to ensure that the patch has sufficient flexibility so that it can fit better with the human body. The temperature sensor 2 is connected to the temperature display screen 3, and the detected temperature is displayed on the temperature display screen 3.

[0028] In this embodiment, when in use, the user attaches the patch 1 to the surface of the child's forehead, and then the patch fixing mechanism 4 fixes the patch 1 to the child's forehead. Since the patch 1 can maintain a close fit to the child's forehead without any other external force, the user does not need to apply any other force to the patch 1. Therefore, it can be ensured that the patch 1 does not come into contact with external objects when measuring the child's temperature, thus making it less likely to affect the temperature measurement result.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the patch fixing mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 41, a fixing rod 42, a rotating rod 43, and a patch assembly 44. The mounting frame 41 is arc-shaped and made of rigid material. The inner arc surface of the mounting frame 41 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the patch 1. The mounting frame 41 has a hollow structure, and its inner wall is fixedly connected to both ends of the fixing rod 42. The fixing rod 42 is cylindrical, and its outer wall passes through it and is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating rod 43. The rotating rod 43 is concentrically arranged with the fixing rod 42. The inner wall of the rotating rod 43 has a mounting groove 46, and the inner wall of the mounting groove 46 is elastically connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod 42 by a torsion spring 47. One end of the spring 47 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 46, and the other end of the torsion spring 47 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod 42. The patch assembly 44 is located on the outside of the rotating rod 43. One end of the patch assembly 44 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 43. The patch assembly 44 is configured as two sets. The two sets of patch assemblies 44 are connected by the patch assembly fixing assembly 45. When in use, the patch assembly 44 is first stretched outward and wrapped around the child's head. The ends of the two sets of patch assemblies 44 are fixed by the patch assembly fixing assembly 45, so that the patch assembly 44 can fit with the child's head and its side away from the patch 1 is relatively fixed, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the patch 1.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, the head patch assembly 44 includes a wrapping tape 441 made of non-woven fabric. One end of the wrapping tape 441 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 43. A head patch block 442 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the wrapping tape 441. The head patch block 442 is made of medical silicone, and the side of the head patch block 442 away from the wrapping tape 441 is set as an arc surface. A ventilation hole 443 is provided on the inner wall of the wrapping tape 441 to prevent the child's head from sweating.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, the mounting housing 6 is included, with its inner wall fixedly connected to the outer wall of the data cable 5. The temperature sensor 2 and the temperature display screen 3 are both placed inside the mounting housing 6. The mounting housing 6 consists of two parts, upper and lower, which are detachable.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the bonding assembly fixing component 45 includes a protrusion 451. The width of the protrusion 451 is greater than the slot on the side wall of the mounting frame 41 for the winding tape 441 to enter and exit. Two protrusions 451 are provided, and each protrusion 451 is fixedly connected to the end of a different winding tape 441 away from the rotating rod 43. A connecting block 452 is rotatably connected to the end of the protrusion 451 away from the winding tape 441. Two connecting blocks 452 are also provided, and each connecting block 452 is fixedly connected to one of the two protrusions 451. An insertion hole 453 is provided on the inner wall of one of the connecting blocks 452. A limiting ring 454 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the insertion hole 453. The limiting ring 454 has shape memory properties and is flexible. The outer wall of another connecting block 452 is fixedly connected to a rod 455, which is cylindrical in shape. A limiting ball 456 is fixedly connected to one end of the rod 455 away from the connecting block 452. In use, the connecting block 452 with the insertion hole 453 is placed above the connecting block 452 with the rod 455, and then the limiting ball 456 is passed through the insertion hole 453. When the limiting ball 456 passes through the insertion hole 453, its outer surface pushes the limiting ring 454, causing it to deform. When the limiting ball 456 completely passes through the limiting ring 454, the limiting ring 454 returns to its original shape under its own shape memory. Therefore, when the limiting ball 456 is limited by the limiting ring 454, the two ends of the winding tape 441 are relatively fixed.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the diameter of the middle section of the rotating rod 43 is smaller than that of both ends, and the rotating rod 43 has a smooth gradient area that gradually changes from both ends to the middle. This gradual diameter design ensures that the winding tape 441 is less prone to positional shift when wound around the outside of the rotating rod 43. As another preferred embodiment, the mounting groove 46 is located in the larger diameter area of ​​the rotating rod 43. The positioning of the mounting groove 46 ensures that it has sufficient installation space. The mounting groove 46 is cylindrical and concentrically positioned with the rotating rod 43.

[0034] As a preferred method, the inner diameter of the limiting ring 454 is smaller than the diameter of the limiting ball 456, and the inner diameter of the limiting ring 454 is larger than the diameter of the insert rod 455. By setting the diameter of the limiting ring 454, it is ensured that the limiting ball 456 can be limited by the limiting ring 454.
