Dual incubator temperature control system

摘要

An infant incubator having a heating system that provides a flow of heated air into the infant compartment and which exhausts air from the infant compartment. A temperature sensor is located in the air inlet of the warm air into the infant compartment and another temperature sensor is located in the air outlet of the air from the infant compartment. The system thus monitors the temperature of the air to the infant compartment and the air from the infant compartment. By analyzing the temperatures from the inlet and the outlet the overall incubator heating system can be controlled and yet a further advantage is provided by using the temperature information to recognize a fault or deficiency in the incubator system.
