A clinical thermometer has a kink.
In a clinical thermometer, the kink is the most important part of the thermometer. It prevents the sudden falling of the mercury present in the capillary tube to the bulb. So that the temperature can be read before falling the mercury in the bulb. In other words, kink helps us in providing sufficient time to read the temperature before the mercury in the bulb falls.
