Title:
ELECTRONIC CLINICAL THERMOMETER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/100938
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An electronic clinical thermometer includes a control circuit (4) which controls operation timing according to the operations of a measurement device (3) and a notification device (9) so that the measurement operation and the notification operation will not be performed simultaneously, thereby preventing lowering of the measurement accuracy due to battery voltage lowering. The electronic clinical thermometer (1) includes the measurement device (3) for measuring a body temperature, a drive device (8) for recording the notification data, the notification device (9) for performing notification by a drive signal formed according to the notification data, and the control circuit (4) for controlling the measurement operation and the notification operation. The control circuit (4) performs control so that the operation timing of the measurement device (3) is shifted from the operation timing of the notification device (9) according to their operation states so as to prevent simultaneous operations of the measurement and notification. Thus, in the electronic clinical thermometer performing notification operation, it is possible to prevent simultaneous execution of the measurement operation and notification operation, which in turn prevents measurement accuracy lowering due to battery voltage lowering.
