The invention relates to a double temperature sensor for determining the body core temperature of a living being. The double temperature sensor comprises a sensor block (2), which on one side carries a first temperature sensor (4) provided for placing on the skin surface and on the other side carries a second temperature sensor (5) spaced from the first, and an evaluating unit, which is designed to calculate the body core temperature using the measured values of the first and second temperature sensors, characterised in that the sensor block (2) is held in a hood-shaped housing shell (1) which is shaped in such a manner that the first temperature sensor (4) on the sensor block and the peripheral outer edge (8) of the housing shell (1) spaced therefrom lie in one plane, such that when the housing shell (1) is lying on the skin surface the sensor block (2) is surrounded by an air-filled cavity closed off by the housing shell. |
