PURPOSE:To obtain an inexpensive apparatus enabling the evaluation of the sensibility to temperature and heat of each part of a human body, by composing the apparatus of a main body prepared by combining a plurality of portions each having a temperature detecting element and an external form shaped simply in a cylinder, a sphere, a long cylinder, a square pillar or the like, and of a control unit and a display unit. CONSTITUTION:The apparatus is formed of a main body 1 which is prepared by combining together portions (A1, A2, A3, A3'-A7, A7') each having a cylindrical external form, a portion (A8) having a long-cylindrical form and portions (A9, A9') each shaped in a square pillar, of a control unit 2 which is connected to a heat source C incorporated in each portion through a conductor D and controls the amount of heat in each portion, and of a display unit 3 which is connected to a temperature detecting element E stuck on each portion through a signal line F and displays the temperature of each portion. Each of the portions A1-A9 is formed of an external body B formed of a copper plate, the heat source C attached on the back of the external body, a film G covering the back of the external body B and the heat source C, a foamed heat insulator H, the temperature detecting element E, the conductor D, and the signal line F. The form and sizes of each portions are determined so that the heat exchange between a human body and the environment may be equivalent, and the amount of heat generated by the heat source C is set beforehand for each portion by the control unit 2 so that it may be equivalent to that of the human body. |
