    Temperature-measuring apparatus with temperature-sensitive device
    WO 2012158305 A3
    Abstract
    The present disclosure relates generally to a temperature-measuring apparatus having a base, an elongated temperature-sensitive strip having multiple layers with different coefficients of thermal expansion, and a conversion component configured to produce temperature data based on a position of a distal portion of the strip. Certain embodiments relate to temperature- measuring apparatuses employing two or more elongated temperature- sensitive strips with a guide configured to limit bending of the distal portions of the strips. Certain embodiments relate to temperature-measuring apparatuses with one or more calibration members to alter the sensitivity and/or a temperature measurement of the apparatuses.
