Axillary Infrared Thermometer And Method Of Use

View page
US Patent:
6402371, Jun 11, 2002
Filed:
Mar 23, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/815817
Inventors:
Francesco Pompei - Boston MA
Janus Ternullo - Belmont MA
Assignee:
Exergen Corporation - Watertown MA
International Classification:
G01J 506
US Classification:
374128, 374126, 374172, 374133, 2503381, 25033911
Abstract:
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.

Radiation Detector With Remote Temperature Reference

View page
US Patent:
6423970, Jul 23, 2002
Filed:
Aug 21, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/643052
Inventors:
Francesco Pompei - Boston MA
Assignee:
Exergen Corporation - Watertown MA
International Classification:
G01J 526
US Classification:
250349, 2503381
Abstract:
A radiation detector employs a thermopile having a potentiometer for calibrating the thermopile output to best suit a particular output meter and sensing application. A thermocouple may be connected in series with the thermopile. The output of the thermopile is calibrated to best match a linear function which intersects the thermopile output function at a temperature in the center of a temperature range of interest. A total output signal of the detector is the sum of the thermopile signal and the thermocouple signal, and is indicative of the temperature of a target emitting radiation sensed by the thermopile. The series connection of the thermopile and the thermocouple allow the thermopile hot junction temperature to be referenced to the cold junction temperature of the thermocouple. Thus, the reference temperature may be remote from the thermopile sensor. A filtering lens may be used to prevent short wavelength radiation from reaching the thermopile sensor, improving the linearity of the thermopile response.

Ambient And Perfusion Normalized Temperature Detector

View page
US Patent:
6499877, Dec 31, 2002
Filed:
Aug 28, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/941174
Inventors:
Francesco Pompei - Boston MA
Assignee:
Exergen Corporation - Watertown MA
International Classification:
G01J 502
US Classification:
374133, 600549, 702131
Abstract:
A body temperature detector is particularly suited to axillary temperature measurements of adults. The radiation sensor views a target surface area of the body and electronics compute an internal temperature of the body as a function of ambient temperature and sensed surface temperature. The function includes a weighted difference of surface temperature and ambient temperature, the weighting being varied with target temperature to account for varying perfusion rate. Preferably, the coefficient varies from a normal of about 0. 13 through a range to include 0. 09. The ambient temperature used in the function is assumed at about 80Â F. but modified with detector temperature weighted by 20%.

Axillary Infrared Thermometer And Cover Thereof

View page
US Patent:
6547744, Apr 15, 2003
Filed:
Apr 13, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/290286
Inventors:
Francesco Pompei - Boston MA
Marybeth A. Pompei - Boston MA
Assignee:
Exergen Corporation - Watertown MA
International Classification:
A61B 1000
US Classification:
600549
Abstract:
An infrared detector has a probe having curved surfaces which slide readily into a neonate axilla. The probe is covered by a disposable cover, or a bag completely encloses the infrared detector. The bag has a pleated end surface, through which the detector views the skin, and a flap at a rear surface to close an opening which receives the detector.

Radiation Detector With Passive Air Purge And Reduced Noise

View page
US Patent:
6641301, Nov 4, 2003
Filed:
Apr 9, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/828744
Inventors:
Francesco Pompei - Boston MA
Assignee:
Exergen Corporation - Watertown MA
International Classification:
G01J 504
US Classification:
374125, 374135, 374138, 374208, 356 43, 359507, 359509, 250221, 136213, 136224, 136230, 15301, 15409, 134 37
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for maintaining a viewing window of a detector substantially clean includes enclosing the detector within a housing, and moving a target surface relative to the viewing window to create an airflow adjacent the viewing window. The housing can include an aperture through which the viewing window of the sensor views the target surface. Motion of the target surface creates an airflow velocity adjacent the viewing window for maintaining the viewing window substantially clean. To increase the accuracy of the detector, a high emissivity area is provided on an outside surface of the housing which faces the target surface.

Temporal Thermometer Disposable Cap

View page
US Patent:
6932775, Aug 23, 2005
Filed:
Sep 20, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/957642
Inventors:
Francesco Pompei - Boston MA, US
Marybeth A. Pompei - Boston MA, US
Assignee:
Exergen Corporation - Watertown MA
International Classification:
A61B005/00
US Classification:
600549
Abstract:
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.
