ELECTRONIC THERMOMETER

摘要

The electronic thermometer is characterized by having a hollow probe (3) having a temperature measurement part (3a) having a temperature sensor used for detecting the temperature at the tip in the length direction, electrodes (7a, 7b) arranged in the hollow part of the probe (3) near the temperature sensor, and a judgment part that determines whether the temperature measurement part (3a) is in appropriate contact with the measured part of the user based on the change in the electrostatic capacitance detected using the electrodes (7a, 7b).
