PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ear-type clinical thermometer which continuously measures the body temperature of a person to be measured for a long period of time, is inexpensive and disposable, is firmly and steadily mounted in an external acoustic meatus of the person to be measured, and can significantly simplify a correcting operation(calibration). SOLUTION: A probe includes a substantially L-shaped cylindrical probe body coupled through a cable to a measuring device and a temperature measuring section connected to the probe body. The temperature measuring section includes a flange portion connected to the probe body and a distal end portion extending from the flange portion and mounting a sensor mirror in the interior. The sensor mirror includes a cylindrical holder having a concave reflection surface in the interior, a coupling shaft extending from the cylindrical holder, a first sensor for measurement and a second sensor for correction supported in a front space of the cylindrical holder by lead wires, respectively, and a cover sheathing a front surface of the cylindrical holder. The respective lead wires supporting the first and second sensors pass the temperature measuring section and probe body and are electrically connected to the cable. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
