Abstract

A temperature measuring device utilizing a thermometer including a temperature sensor and a temperature indicator for displaying a temperature value. The temperature indicator is mechanically and electrically linked to the temperature sensor. A member is sized to at least partially cover the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is separable from the cover member which includes an aperture which may take the form of a slot. The aperture permits passage of the temperature sensor and also allows the temperature sensor and temperature indicator to be held to the member.
