Abstract

1292626 Alarm clock F REDENBACH 29 Oct 1969 [8 Nov 1968 3 Dec 1968 25 Feb 1969] 52909/69 Addition to 1250985 Heading G3T [Also in Division B8] An alarm clock for indicating a period of time comprises an indexing element 45 rotating once every 24 hours, means for setting the element at an initial position, a warning device for giving optical or optical and acoustic alarm signals, actuating means associated with the indexing element arranged to operate the warning device at the said period either continuously or intermittently, manually operable means for disconnecting the actuating means from the warning device, which includes a spring-biased lever movable in one direction by a spring to provide said signal(s) and in the opposite direction by said manually operable means. As described slot 42 in setting wheel 43 is extended so that nose 44 on indexing wheel 45 protrudes through the slot for 12 hours, permitting wheel 45 to move axially and set off the warning signals during this period. Shut-off lever 46 has ends 47, 48 protruding into pill box 24 and a chamber into which pills are dropped daily from 28-day rotating dispenser 25. The warning period may be adjustable. The acoustic warning arrangement is said to be conventional. Optical warning is provided by flag 91 moved by cam 90. Alternative embodiments have constantly-lit warning lights (22) Figs. 7 and 8 (not shown) with coloured screens moved by a lever (56) to cover the light to give optical warnings, the light being visible through windows (54) Figs. 6, 9 and 10 (not shown) in the clock dial. Flags (68) Figs. 13 and 14 (not shown) may be moved by an expanding helical spring (67) rather than a cam. The pill dispenser consisting of front and back plates (25, 30), Fig. 5 (not shown) with radial partitions to isolate pills for daily dispensing, is rotated in a cycle of 28 days and carries indicia to indicate the day of the cycle. The indicia are mounted by means of slip clutches to enable adjustment of the indicia for day names to correspond to cycle day numbers.
