Abstract

Abstract An electronic thermometer includes temperature sensing member (11) for sensing a temperature on a predetermined sampling cycle to produce a measured value, predicted value computing member (10, ST13) for predicting a predicted value corresponding to a converged temperature in view of the measured value produced by the sensing member, first judging member (10, ST21) for judging that a predetermined drop of the measured value has continued for a predetermined time interval, alarming member for alarming in response to an output generated from the first judging memberthatthe prediction by the predicted value computing member is not available, and display member for displaying the measured value of the predicted value.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 110 words
An electronic thermometer comprising temperature sensing means (11) for sensing a temperature on a predetermined sampling cycle to produce a measured value, predicted value computing means (10, ST13) for predicting a predicted value corresponding to a converged temperature in view of said measured value produced by said sensing means, first judging means (10, ST21) for judging whether a predetermined drop of said measured value has continued for a predetermined time interval, alarming means for alarming in response to an output generated from said first judging means that the prediction by said predicted value computing means is not available, and display means for displaying said measured value or said predicted value.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 110 words
An electronic thermometer comprising temperature sensing means (11) for sensing a temperature on a predetermined sampling cycle to produce a measured value, predicted value computing means (10, ST13) for predicting a predicted value corresponding to a converged temperature in view of said measured value produced by said sensing means, first judging means (10, ST21) for judging whether a predetermined drop of said measured value has continued for a predetermined time interval, alarming means for alarming in response to an output generated from said first judging means that the prediction by said predicted value computing means is not available, and display means for displaying said measured value or said predicted value.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 50 words
An electronic thermometer according to Claim 1 further comprising second judging means (10, ST16) for judging whether said measured value drops below a predetermined value, in which said alarming means is actuated by an output from said first or second judging means to alarm that the prediction is not available.
