Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:An electronic thermometer having a probe for insertion into the mouth or other cavity where temperature is to be measured; disposable probe sheaths that are easily assembled with and removed from the probe; an electronics system comprising means for preheating the mouthward end of the probe, thus achieving very quick temperature measurement; and a digital temperature indicator. The invention includes means for quickly disengaging the disposable sheath from the probe and means for supporting the assembly on a nurse's hospital board or from a neck strap. The electric circuitry receives power from batteries that are permanently fixed to a removable and quickly replaceable bottom (back) cover of the case.
