The small dumbbell-shaped index is part of the minimum thermometer, which indicates the lowest temperature reached since its last reset. This index moves with the column of liquid mercury inside the thermometer and remains at the lowest point it reaches. The maximum thermometer has a different design, typically with a narrow constriction in the tube that makes the mercury rise to indicate the highest temperature reached. Bimetal strips and thermistors are different types of temperature sensors that operate based on different principles.
