Abstract

A peripheral physiology inspection apparatus of smart phone is connected with a smart phone having a TRRS socket for performing a physiology inspection. The peripheral physiology inspection apparatus includes: an inspection main body including a first physiology sensing unit; a plurality of signal transmission units; and a TRRS terminal for connecting with the inspection main body via the signal transmission units. The TRRS terminal is corresponding to the TRRS socket for allowing the inspection main body to be electrically connected to the smart phone, thereby enabling the smart phone to analyze and process physiology signals inspected by and delivered from the inspection main body.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A peripheral physiology inspection apparatus of smart phone, which is connected with a smart phone having a TRRS socket for performing a physiology inspection, the peripheral physiology inspection apparatus comprising:
 an inspection main body including a first physiology sensing unit, a second physiology sensing unit disposed on a switch, and an electrode plate disposed on the second physiology sensing unit;   a plurality of signal transmission units; and   a TRRS terminal for connecting with the inspection main body via the signal transmission units, the TRRS terminal being corresponding to the TRRS socket for allowing the inspection main body to be electrically connected to the smart phone, thereby enabling the smart phone to analyze and process physiology signals inspected by and delivered from the inspection main body;   wherein the first and the second physiology sensing units are connected with each other by the signal transmission units, and the first physiology sensing unit is an earphone-type physiology sensing unit comprising:   at least one earphone main body;   a conductive surface disposed on the earphone main body; and   a temperature-sensing element disposed in the earphone main body for sensing a body temperature of ear cavity of a human body.   
     
     
         2 . The peripheral physiology inspection apparatus of smart phone as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a signal conversion interface disposed between the inspection main body and the smart phone for converting the physiology signal inspected by the inspection main body into an audio signal, so as to allow the smart phone to receive the audio signal through the TRRS socket. 
     
     
         3 . The peripheral physiology inspection apparatus of smart phone as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the temperature-sensing element is a thermistor, a thermal resistor, a thermal coupler, a thermal IC, a P/N junction, or an infrared temperature-sensing element.
