Abstract
An electronic thermometer with a directionally adjustable LCD display is disclosed. The thermometer includes a control circuit and a display wherein the display is provided with identifiable signals capable of identifying characters and/or symbols in multiple directions, characterized in that the thermometer is provided with a direction sensing element such that the thermometer, under normal operating direction, is in an upright position facing the user, and if the thermometer is reversed, the direction sensing element due to the gravity will produce a directional signal and the control circuit of the thermometer receives the signal which immediately outputs to the display device to produce an upright display signal to the user whereby the display shows upright characters and/or symbols in multiple directions. As a consequence, the electronic thermometer can adjust to provide an upright display regardless of whether the user uses the left hand or right hand to hold the thermometer.
