Abstract
An apparatus for checking and monitoring a child's temperature through the use of a baby pacifier. The pacifier provides a radio signal to a receiver unit. The pacifier senses the temperature and provides a proportional frequency signal if above or below designed limits. The pacifier detects temperature variation, discriminates between normal or abnormal temperatures and automatically transmits only the abnormal high/low temperature signals to a remote radio receiving apparatus where such signals are visually displayed and audible/visual alarms are provided.
Claims14
An internal body temperature sensing system comprising:
- a) a temperature sensing pacifier having a pull ring on a face of a flange, for sensing a baby's internal body temperature;
- b) a radio receiver/transmitting means positioned on said flange face of said pacifier, for receiving and converting a sensed temperature signal for radio transmission to a remote radio receiving means;
- c) at least one replaceable battery means mounted in close proximity to said radio transmitting means, in communication with said radio transmitting means, for powering said radio receiver/transmitter;
- d) an antenna embedded in said pacifier pull ring, and connected to said radio transmitting means, for increasing the transmission distance;
- and
- e) a remote radio receiving means, for receiving said sensed temperature signal.
