Abstract
A wireless temperature-measurement system comprising (a) one or more temperature probes each including one or more energy-storage capacitors which supply the electrical energy for operation of the probe(s) and (b) a probe-charging station having circuitry configured to supply electric charge to the energy-storage capacitors prior to the temperature probes being positioned to measure temperature.
Claims28
A wireless temperature-measurement system comprising (a) one or more temperature probes each including one or more energy-storage capacitors which supply the electrical energy for operation of the one or more probes, at least a portion of the energy-storage capacitors being hermetically-sealed double-layer capacitors each having a ceramic base and a metal top, and (b) a probe-charging station having circuitry configured to supply electric charge to the energy-storage capacitors prior to the temperature probes being positioned to measure temperature, whereby each of the temperature probes does not outgas when exposed to temperatures of up to 316° C. (600° F.).
