What is the function of constriction in clinical thermometer?

In case of ordinary thermometer if the thermometer is taken out the body whose temperature has been seen, the Mercury would fall down as the bulb gets cooled. But in case of clinical thermometer even after the thermometer has been taken out of the mouth of the patient the level of mercury would be held at the same level though the bulb falls to the room temperature. So doctor could see the temperature liesurely. To bring back the mercury to lowest level we have to give jerks to the thermometer by shaking it.

What is the name of a glass object that when you hold it the liquid raises up a novelty item?

This can be bulb thermometer. When the bulb is held in the hand the liquid warms, expands, and rises up the tube. It can also be a novelty such as the "drinking bird". When the bulb on the bottom is held in the hand, the liquid expands and rises up the tube to the head making it heavier so the bird tilts down. It's possibly a variation of a lava lamp. The fluid in the lava lamp was heated by the bulb on bottom and rose to the top where it cooled and fell again. There may have been a hand held variation that worked on the heat of your hand.
