Food temperature monitoring device
First Claim
1. Temperature monitoring device of a matter that is at least partly of water, such as food, comprising a wireless temperature sensor comprising:
- a temperature transducer of the said matter;
an electromagnetic wave transmitter circuit electrically connected to the temperature transducer, comprising a converter of electric signals coming from the transducer to electromagnetic type signals;
a hermetic and highly thermal conductive case designed to be fitted with all of the electric system comprising the temperature transducer and the transmitter circuit;
wherein the sensor is laid out so that the temperature transducer is located near to the transmitter circuit, thereby forming a compact unit.
