摘要： An inexpensive thermopile temperature detector is particularly adapted to monitoring of electrical equipment, such as a power bus bar, within an enclosed area such as a cabinet. The detector may have a plastic housing, a thermopile sensor and a plastic Fresnel lens. Each sensor also includes a calibrated element such that, but for calibration, the same sensor may be used for various applications for different target sizes and distance or, more generally, with respect to effective target percentage of field of view.

摘要： Body temperature measurements are obtained by scanning a thermal radiation sensor across the side of the forehead over the temporal artery. A peak temperature measurement is processed to compute an internal temperature of the body as a function of ambient temperature and the sensed surface temperature. The function includes a weighted difference of surface temperature and ambient temperature, the weighting being varied with target temperature through a minimum in the range of 96° F. and 100° F. The radiation sensor views the target surface through an emissivity compensating cup which is spaced from the skin by a circular lip of low thermal conductivity.

摘要： A disposable cap for a body temperature detector includes a body having a viewing end and a retaining end. The retaining end includes an inward protrusion that expands over a wider portion of an end of the detector and contracts after the retaining end has passed over the wider portion to snugly secure the cap on the detector. The cap further includes a flange with an aperture therethrough adjacent the viewing end to permit a radiation sensor of the detector to view a target surface. Preferably, the cap is sufficiently large so as to not be insertable into an ear of a human. The cap is formed from a sheet of material, preferably by thermoforming, from a material such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene, or other similar material which has relatively low hardness and low thermal conductivity properties. The cap has a generally uniform thickness of about 0.020 inch.

摘要： A patient's body temperature is regulated by using an enclosure to enclose a portion of the patient's body in an isolated environment. In accordance with one embodiment, the patient's entire body below his head is enclosed. Once enclosed, the patient is surrounded by heated vapor that is injected into the enclosure. The heated vapor condenses on the patient's skin to warm the patient quickly, efficiently and safely. This embodiment is well suited for the treatment of hypothermia patients. In accordance with alternative embodiments, only a portion of the patient's head is enclosed. In these embodiments, an enclosure is placed on the patient's head, and heated vapor is fed into the enclosure. Excess air and vapor are preferably dissipated by vents in the cap, whereas excess condensate is preferably absorbed by an absorbent layer provided in the cap. These embodiments are well suited for regulating a patient's body temperature in a surgical setting. Tympanic temperature is monitored and thus vapor dew point temperature is controlled to less than 47° C. but greater than tympanic temperature. Heated vapor may heat other articles such as intravenous supply bags. The heated vapor for many locations in a building may be supplied from a central steam generator.

摘要： A radiation detector for axillary temperature measurement comprises a wand having an axially directed radiation sensor at one end and an offset handle at the opposite end. The radiation sensor is mounted within a heat sink and retained by an elastomer in compression. The radiation sensor views a target surface through an emissivity compensating cup and a plastic film. A variable reference is applied to a radiation sensor and amplifier circuit in order to maintain full analog-to-digital converter resolution over design ranges of target and sensor temperature with the sensor temperature either above or below target temperature.

摘要： A thermally differentiable pattern such as hot melt adhesive is monitored in a production line system. An electrical output from a thermopile radiation sensor is applied to a detection circuit which processes the sensor electrical output to perform an inverse to the sensor transfer function and to perform a differentiation which provides a pulsed output at rising and falling edges of the sensor signal. Comparators provide respective output pulse signals representing the respective rising and falling edges. An adjustable amplifier in the circuit adjusts pulse threshold relative to sensed radiation.

摘要： A radiation detector employs a thermopile having a potentiometer for scaling the thermopile output to best suit a particular output meter and sensing application. The output of the thermopile is scaled to approximate the output of a thermocouple in contact with a target surface and is indicative of the temperature of the target. Two detectors may be connected differentially to provide a differential output indicative of the temperature difference between two targets. Additionally, a temperature dependent variable resistor may be coupled to the thermopile, providing a variable resistance that combines with the thermopile output response to produce a linearized thermopile output response. Then, the total output signal of the detector for a particular target temperature is independent of fluctuations in local temperature.
