Description

The present invention relates to a transmitter-receiver device.

  vibrator which, thanks to a coded signal emitted by the transmitter, triggers the vibrator incorporated in the receiver box allowing to discreetly alert, if necessary

  or emergency, all persons carrying a vibrating receiver.

  Currently existing devices are audible - which can be annoying in certain situations or certain places - or visual (luminescent point), this

  which requires sustained attention, even at all times.

  The device according to the invention makes it possible to remedy these drawbacks. Indeed, this device according to the invention comprises a transmitter box with

  220 VAC 50/60 Hz power supply and one or more vibrating receiver boxes.

  In the transmitter housing there is a battery (with two-color light-emitting diode (D.E.L) signaling the state of charge of the battery) which can, in the event of a power failure, power the system for several

  hours, a charger to charge the battery of the transmitter and receiver.

  In this transmitter box there is also a transmitter which can send a signal by coded waves (programmable by an encoder with switch) of a maximum range in accordance with the law and triggering a motor-vibrator located in the receiver, with three possibilities of use The first is done manually by a push button "alarmnne allowing to trigger the signal sent by the transmitter to the receiver which activates the motor-vibrator, an electroluminescent signaling (LED) indicating that the order from the push button" alanne "has been correctly transmitted and saved; this signaling remains active as long as no action is taken on the" acknowledgment "push button located on the side of the

transmitter box.

  The second is done by a clock which allows, according to programming, to trigger the signal from the transmitter to the receiver which activates the motor-vibrator. Possibility of programming several cycles per day at different times and over a period of eight days. This clock synchronizes automatically as soon as it is within a transmission radius

DCF 77 radio signals.

  The third is done by a voice detector with microphone (voice, crying, noises with sensitivity and frequency adjustment) allowing to trigger the

  signal from the transmitter to the receiver which activates the vibrating motor.

  A manual inverter allows switching the order from the clock or

  the order from the voice detector.

  On the transmitter housing is a two-color light-emitting diode signaling the state of charge of the receiver's battery (red = discharged / green = charged), a housing with two gold-plated contacts and polarized to receive

  the receiver and charge its battery, a mains outlet with cord and protection.

  The device according to the invention also comprises a receiver box -

  vibrator in which there is a receiver (with its decoder and its switch coded with the switch of the transmitter) permitting to receive a coded signal of a maximum range in accordance with the law, a motor-vibrator, a battery supplying the system. On the outside of the case are two

  gold contacts for charging the battery.

  gold (1 8) for charging the receivervibrator battery.

  According to the embodiment The transmitter box shown in Figure I has a flat part where there is at the bottom right a push button "alarm" (2) with, just above, a light emitting diode (3) signaling that the from button

  "alarm" button has been effectively issued and correctly recorded,

  above is an inverter (5) activating either the clock (1) or the voice detector (4), above is the two-color light-emitting diode D.E.L (6) indicating the receiver's battery charge; below left is the microphone (4) of the voice detector with frequency and intensity adjustment, above is a two-color light-emitting diode (7) indicating the charge of the battery of the permanent transmitter, in the event of a power supply failure, operation for several hours, behind the flat part of the transmitter box shown in Figure 1, is a tilted desk-shaped part with a programmable clock on the left (1), on the right, a green light-emitting diode. On the right side and at the rear of the transmitter box shown in Figure 2 is a housing (11) and two gold contacts (10) and polarized for receiving the receiver-vibrator box shown in Figure 4 and charging its battery - the polarization system allows to avoid a reverse polarity in the battery charge -; on the right side and in front of the transmitter box shown in Figure 2 is the acknowledgment push button "(9) deactivating the light emitting diode (3) indicating the order issued by the" alarm "push button (2). On the right side of the transmitter box shown in Figure 3, there is a power outlet

  (12) with power cord and protection.

  According to the embodiment: In the receiver-vibrator box shown in Figure 4 is a receiver (I 5) with its decoder and its switch, a motor-vibrator (16), a battery (17) supplying the operation of the together. On the left side of the receiver-vibrator box shown in Figure 5 are two gold contacts (18) for charging the battery (1 7) of the

receiver-vibrator (14).
