Conductive probe cover

摘要: Several improvements are disclosed for the design of a protective cover probe component an electronic thermometer. In one embodiment, is formed thin layer synthetic resin material having conductive dispersed therein to render electrically conductive. A verification circuit in thermometer utilizes conductivity ascertain that properly positioned on probe. resistance measured along its length, and includes enabling allow operate only if between predetermined upper lower ohmic limits. another embodiment present invention, retainer element split into two portions, bridging those portions each these embodiments, grounded provide discharge static electrical charges from cover. ring reinforcing provided around opening secure retention
