Wirelessly Activated Monitored Safety Temperature Sensing Alarm

Abstract

This Wireless Safety Temperature Sensing Alarm is a thermally actuated alarm designed to send a wireless signal to a remote base which will turn on a buzzer, a visual light signal or an emergency alert system to alert anyone around that a child/person/pet/plant has been left in a confined environment that is experiencing extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold. It can also simply alert someone that a certain device or environment has reached the user defined set point temperature. It consists of 2 units: a base and a remote. The base is easily installed on any kind of carrier or as a standalone fixture, and it is designed to sense the temperature of the environment that the child/person/pet/plant is in and it can trigger a wireless signal on the remote to turn on the buzzer/alarm, and a flashing light for people who are hearing impaired or send an RF signal emergency alert. It's designed with a 10 minute turn-on delay to prevent false alarms upon startup. It also has a low-battery alert as an add-on safety precaution. The remote can be easily carried on or as a standalone device, or is easily installed on the exterior of the confined environment which the child/person/pet/plant is in. This makes it possible for anyone who is nearby to hear/see the alarm and take action. Many lives of children, beloved people, pets, and plants could be saved (and financial loss or wasted time could be prevented) using this easy to install invention. A future development of the product will be able to alert an emergency system in case that human lives are in danger of extreme temperatures.

Claims

1. The first to use a wireless/RF signal for electric actuation of an alarm that has a thermally-operated switch to alert a remote device and/or emergency alert system that temperatures changed. The first to use a wired/wireless or RF signal thermally sensing alarm with multiple user defined temperature set points (low and high). The first overall usage of RF signal (wireless alarm system, or an emergency alert system) that is activated by the change in user defined set point temperatures. The first thermal wirelessly actuated safety alarm system that uses 9 v battery for both remote and base. The first to use a low voltage warning circuit in a thermal wirelessly actuated safety alarm system remote and base. The first thermal wirelessly actuated safety alarm system that is made of two components base and remote. The first to implement an on-off safety belt switch for a thermal wirelessly actuated safety alarm system. Any device or devices wired or wireless that uses a thermal wirelessly actuated safety alarm system that it is used to alarm in any way as a buzzer or a visual light or by sending any wired or wireless signal to a second device or service system device or devices to alert anyone in case of sensing that the temperature dropped too low or is too high.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] This Wirelessly Activated Safety Temperature Sensing Alarm is a device that senses if the environmental temperature changes 101 from the ones already preset by the user, and processes it through the processing unit 102, and depending on the input, sends an RF signal through the RF transmitter 103 to a device such as an emergency alert system (in the future) or activates a remote visible/audible alarm FIG. 2 if it falls below or above the preset safe range. The safety temperature sensing alarm is a device used on a carrier or confined space that needs to be monitored, to alert anybody around that the temperature is too hot or too cold for the child's/person's/pet's/plant's safety. It works by detecting the temperature and sending a sound/visual alarm to alert anybody around that something is wrong. The temperature set points can be easily adjusted.

[0014] The invention is made of 2 components, a base transmitter FIG. 1 and a remote receiver FIG. 2. Soon to be adaptable to an emergency alert system.

[0015] The base's components are a time delay circuit board (which will be optional); it will help with any extreme temperatures that can occur initially in any place, a temperature sensing unit (which can have optional adjustable low and high temperature-sensing), a low-battery indicator with an LED, a battery, an on/off switch, a processing unit, and an RF remote transmitter. The two adjustable potentiometers are preset to a certain resistance. Any more power over that point will set the buzzer on and/or that will alert anybody around that something is wrong and needs intervention.

[0016] The remote's components are an on/off switch, am RF receiver, a low battery indicator, a battery, an LED, and a buzzer.
