Embodiment Construction

[0013]FIG. 1 illustrates the general construction of the part of the skin temperature measurement device attached to the body. According to the preferred embodiment, this unit 2 has the shape of the wrist and is made of a soft material with a very low thermal conductivity, such as foamed polyurethane. The unit incorporates a flexible electronic board 1 with a connector 7 that turns the unit on when it closes. Two thermistors 3, 5 are assembled on the electronic board. The thermistor 3 faces the skin side and is attached to the skin while being thermally isolated from the ambient room temperature by the polyurethane. The thermistor 5 faces away from the wrist and is thermally isolated from the skin in order to measure the immediate ambient temperature surrounding the skin. The flexible printed board 1 also has an RF antenna printed on the board itself. A soft disposable pad can be attached to the inner side of the unit in order to keep the unit hygienically clean.

Abstract

A body temperature measurement device includes a unit that continually measures body temperature and transmits the measurement through an RF transmitter to a display unit. The display unit includes an RF receiver, a processor, and a display that shows the temperature. The display unit includes an adjustable threshold alarm circuit that turns on an alarm whenever the temperature rises above a defined threshold.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY [0001] This application is a continuation application of, and claims priority from U.S. Patent Application No. 10 / 348,205, filed Jan. 20, 2003, which is incorporated in its entirety by referenced herein and which is a continuation application of, and claims priority from U.S. Patent Application No. 09 / 602,232, filed Jun. 23, 2000, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,547,745, which is incorporated in its entirety by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention is related to a clinical thermometer, and more particularly to a skin thermometer, which performs calculation of oral or rectal temperature. The thermometer is connected to an RF transmitter / receiver system to display the temperature in a remote place and to raise an alarm when the temperature is above a predetermined threshold. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] Numerous devices for body temperature measurement are known. Some devices measure temperat...
