| 20100183044 | EAR THERMOMETER AND MEASURING APPARATUS USED WITH IT - An object is to realize an ear thermometer that is configured to easily arrange a sensor in a sensor mirror and is suitable for mass production. The ear thermometer has a probe. The probe includes a probe body and a temperature measuring part joined with the probe body. The temperature measuring part includes a flange coupled with the probe body and a front end part extending from the flange, the front end part incorporating a sensor mirror. The sensor mirror includes a cylindrical holder with an internal concave reflection face, a connection shaft extending from the back of the cylindrical holder, a flexible printed circuit board with a circuit conductor of predetermined pattern, stretched in a front space of the cylindrical holder, a temperature measuring first sensor and a correcting second sensor spaced by a predetermined distance from each other in a longitudinal direction of the board and soldered to the circuit conductor on the board, and a protection cover covering a front face of the cylindrical holder. The board is electrically connected, in the temperature measuring part, to the cable passing through the probe body. | 07-22-2010 |
