An alarm for a travel bag includes a casing attached to the bag having a receptacle thereon for receiving the bag zipper tongue. A locking device locks the tongue within the receptacle while simultaneously providing power to an alarm circuit. The alarm circuit includes a switch that moves to an open position upon the tongue being inserted into the receptacle. If the tongue is removed, the switch closes activating an audible alarm and a wireless transmitter. The transmitter transmits a signal to ...

A portable alarm includes a light circuit having in series a normally closed first relay contact and a light, an alarm circuit having in series an impact switch and an alarm, a manual switch in series with each of the light circuit and the alarm circuit for activating the light circuit and setting the alarm circuit to a ready position, the impact switch being operable upon impact to turn the alarm on when the alarm circuit is in the ready position, an alarm maintenance circuit connected in serie...

A pilot valve control for the drive motors of an excavator utilizes four pilot valves, each of which has a linear actuable plunger. A control body having a cam type member is mounted on a universal swiveling connection so that in a centered position none of the plungers are moved to actuate the respective valves, but upon tilting of the control body the plungers are actuated. A motion alarm actuator is connected to the control body and is associated with a normally closed switch so that in a cen...

An alarm arrangement for swimming pools includes an electronic transmitter unit (16) and an electronic receiver unit (18). The transmitter unit (16) has a housing (20) containing electronic circuitry. Water activated electrical contacts (24, 26) are provided outside the housing (20) for causing energization of the electronic circuitry when coming into contact with water for emitting an ultrasonic operative signal when a person wearing the transmitter unit (16) enters into water in a pool. The re...

An alarm assembly is provided alerting the operator through one of a visual, audible, or tactile signal, the occurrence of a specified event. The alarm assembly includes a locking mechanism coupled to a substrate which has a natural frequency. The locking mechanism is maintained in a condition which inhibits the natural frequency of the substrate unless commanded to do so by an electronic circuit which includes sensors for monitoring one or more specific criterion. The locking mechanism is prefe...

An alarm lock particularly suitable for use with a bicycle or similar article to be secured, comprising a casing having an integral clamping device and containing an alarm siren which can be actuated either by an internal motion sensitive device, or by breaking or disconnecting a security loop which is connected around the article. Both of the alarm devices are connected to an automatically resettable detector circuit which includes a timer for resetting after a predetermined period. A battery f...

A portable location alarm device is provided which allows a user to preset an alarm event to occur when the device arrives at a pre-determined location. The alarm event alerts the user by audible, visual or vibrating means. The alarm device determines it's actual location using GPS data. In one embodiment the user bookmarks particular locations while physically present at a given location. Part of the bookmarking process involves the device simultaneously receiving GPS data that describes the ph...

An alarm system includes a trigger unit, a recognition unit, and an alarm unit. The trigger unit is operated by the user to output a radio wave to the recognition unit upon an emergency, causing the recognition unit to output a radio signal in triggering the alarm unit to output an alarm signal to the outside, asking for help.

An antitheft alarm device has an electric circuit 21 for generation of an audible alarm and a supporting mechanism 42 for a flexible cord 6 formed between an upper and lower face plates 2, 3. The circuit 21 has a switch 26 comprising a stationary terminal 35 and a movable terminal 34 biased by a spring to be engaged with the stationary terminal 35. The flexible cord 6 detachably held by the mechanism 42 normally maintains the movable terminal 34 to be disengaged with the stationary terminal 35. ...

A rotatable alarm clock includes a clock body received in a hemispherical socket which is attached on a base. A plurality of hemispherical covers are rotatably received in a space defined between the alarm body and the hemispherical socket. An alarm switch is installed on the alarm body. A motor is positioned in the alarm body and is capable of driving the plurality of covers to rotate via a speed-reducing gear set. When the alarm clock alarms according to a preset time, the plurality of hemisph...
