CARGO MONITORING SENSOR WITH HANDLE
First Claim
1. A temperature sensor assembly comprising:
- a handle defining an internal cavity;
a probe secured to the handle and extending distally therefrom, the probe comprising;
a sheath;
a thermistor disposed within the sheath and defining a pair of wires and a bead formed at a distal end portion of the pair of wires;
an electrical noise suppression device disposed within the internal cavity of the handle and electrically connected to the pair of thermistor wires, the electrical noise suppression device being spaced proximally away from the thermistor bead and outside of the sheath;
a set of jacketed lead wires secured to a proximal end portion of the handle and electrically connected to the electrical noise suppression device;
an electrical connector secured to an end portion of the set of jacketed lead wires; and
an adhesive lined heat shrink tubing extending from around the bead of the thermistor, around the pair of thermistor wires, around the electrical noise suppression device, and to around at least a portion of the jacketed lead wires.

Abstract
A temperature sensor assembly is provided that includes a handle defining an internal cavity, and a probe secured to the handle and extending distally therefrom. The probe includes a sheath, a thermistor disposed within the sheath and defining a pair of wires and a bead formed at a distal end portion of the pair of wires. An electrical noise suppression device is disposed within the internal cavity of the handle and is electrically connected to the pair of thermistor wires. A set of lead wires is secured to a proximal end portion of the handle and are electrically connected to the electrical noise suppression device. An adhesive lined heat shrink tubing extends from around the bead of the thermistor, around the pair of thermistor wires, around the electrical noise suppression device, and to around at least a portion of the lead wires.
