Abstract A soldering iron temperature regulator capable of calibrating the measuring error of the temperature sensor for detecting the tip temperature of a soldering iron at ordinary temperature. It comprises a temperature control part for adjusting the heating temperature of the heater on the basis of the set value of a temperature setting part and the measured temperature by a temperature sensor, a variable resistor connected to the temperature sensor, and a calibration circuit for matching the tip measured temperature by the temperature sensor with the ambient temperature of the tip at room temperature, in which after matching the measured temperature by the temperature sensor with the ordinary ambient measured temperature by the output adjustment of the calibration circuit, the heating temperature of the tip is set to a specified temperature by the temperature setting parts, and this value is entered into the temperature control part.
A soldering iron temperature regulator comprising: a soldering iron composed of a heater for heating its tip and a resistance bulb, said soldering iron having a temperature sensor for measuring the tip temperature incorporated near the tip; a temperature setting means for setting the tip temperature of said soldering iron by varying the heating temperature of said heater; a temperature display means for displaying the set temperature of said temperature setting means, and the temperature detected by said temperature sensor; a temperature control means for adjusting the heating temperature of said heater on the basis of the set value of said temperature setting means and the detected temperature of said temperature sensor; a calibration circuit having a variable resistor connected to said temperature sensor for matching the measured temperature displayed in said temperature display means with the ambient tip temperature when the tip of said soldering iron is at room temperature; and a changeover switch for cutting off the current supply to said heater when a supply voltage is applied to said temperature control part.
