The body temperature measuring unit 36 of the kitchen remote controller 30, the body temperature measuring unit 26 of the bathroom remote controller 20, and the body temperature measuring unit 46 of the floor heating remote controller 40 also function as a human sensor. That is, the body temperature measuring units 26, 36, 46 detect the temperature change at the measuring positions RB, RD, RL by the infrared sensor, and when there is a temperature change, the person exists at the measuring positions RB, RD, RL. It is set to judge and output a person detection signal to the control units 22, 32, and 42.

Next, the body temperature measurement in the kitchen remote controller 30, the bathroom remote controller 20, and the floor heating remote controller 40 of the present embodiment will be described.

In the kitchen remote controller 30, the automatic body temperature measurement process shown in FIG. 14 is executed while the power is turned on. In step S30, the patient waits until a person is detected at the measurement position RD, that is, until a person detection signal is received from the body temperature measuring unit 36. When a person is detected at the measurement position RD, the body temperature is measured in step S32. In the body temperature measurement, the body temperature measuring unit 36 measures the body temperature of the user standing at the measurement position RD, and the measured body temperature data is output to the control unit 32.

In step S34, it is determined whether or not the measured body temperature data is equal to or higher than the abnormal body temperature data BD. If the determination is affirmed, a warning is displayed on the display unit 38 in step S36 (see step S12).

When the determination is denied in step S34, and after the execution of step S36, a screen (see FIG. 13) for displaying the measured body temperature and prompting the user to confirm is displayed on the display unit 38. The user selects which user (A, B, C) he / she is, and executes the registration instruction operation.

In step S40, it is determined whether or not there has been a registration instruction operation by the user, and if there is a registration instruction operation by the user, the process proceeds to step S42, and the body temperature data measured as the data of the selected user is registered. If there is no registration instruction operation by the user, it is determined in step S44 whether or not the predetermined time has elapsed, and if the predetermined time has not elapsed, the process returns to step S40. When the predetermined time has elapsed, in step S46, the measured body temperature data is registered as the user data selected and displayed on the display unit 38. After executing steps S42 and S46, the process returns to step S30 and the process is repeated.

Similarly to the kitchen remote controller 30, the bathroom remote controller 20 also executes the body temperature measurement process shown in FIG. 14 while the power is on. In the body temperature measurement in step S12 in the bathroom remote controller 20, the body temperature measuring unit 26 measures the body temperature of the user at the measurement position RB while taking a bath, and the measured body temperature data is output to the control unit 22.

Similarly to the kitchen remote controller 30, the floor heating remote controller 40 also executes the body temperature measurement process shown in FIG. 14 while the power is on. In the body temperature measurement in step S12 of the floor heating remote control 40, the body temperature of the user who stood at the measurement position RL and operated from the input unit 44 was measured by the body temperature measuring unit 46, and the measured body temperature data was output to the control unit 42. Will be done.

In the present embodiment, since the user automatically detects that the user is at the measurement positions RD, RB, and RL and measures the body temperature, the measurement can be easily performed.

The measurement positions RD, RB, and RL set in the first and second embodiments do not necessarily have to be the positions shown in the figure. For example, it may be set at a position close to the body temperature measuring units 26, 36, 46 of each remote controller (for example, within a range of 10 cm or less, 20 cm or less).

Further, in the first and second embodiments, the measured body temperature data is displayed, but the change with time may be displayed for each user. Since the body temperature history measured for each user is recorded in the storage 32D, the change with time may be displayed on the touch panel unit for each user. FIG. 15 shows an example in which the body temperature record from September 1st to September 9th is displayed as a graph on the touch panel unit 33 of the kitchen remote controller 30 for the user A. In this way, by displaying the change over time, the change in physical condition can be visualized.

Further, in the first and second embodiments, when the measured body temperature data is abnormal, a warning display is displayed on each remote controller (kitchen remote controller 30, bathroom remote controller 20, floor heating remote controller 40). , The measured body temperature and user name information and warning may be sent to a destination such as a pre-registered e-mail address for confirmation by communication.
FIG. 16 shows a schematic diagram of the body temperature warning system. The user registers in the server 100 of the manufacturer an e-mail address that can be received by the smart phone 101S, the personal computer 101P, or the like as a warning information transmission destination. On the other hand, when the measured body temperature data is abnormal, each remote controller transmits the measured body temperature and user name information to the server 100. Then, the server 100 transmits the measured body temperature and user name information to the registered destination of the user. As a result, for example, it is possible to receive information at a remote location when the body temperature of a family member who needs to be watched becomes abnormal.

Information such as the measured body temperature may be transmitted to the manufacturer's server 100 via the Internet or by LPWA communication. As an example, when information from each remote controller (kitchen remote controller 30, bathroom remote controller 20, floor heating remote controller 40) is collected in the controller of the heat source unit installed in the home, the Internet is connected via the home router. It can be transmitted to the manufacturer's server 100 via. Further, LPWA communication can be performed by arranging a device for LPWA communication in the heat source machine.

Further, in the server 100, the body temperature data may be acquired by each remote controller, managed, and provided to the user. For example, the history of body temperature data for each user is transmitted to the server 100 by communication and managed by the server 100. The user can check the history of the body temperature measurement data, the measurement frequency, and other information at any time by accessing the server 100.
