Abstract

1420606 Time-alarm signalling arrangements KONSULTAKTIEBOLAGET GERONTOLOGIA 4 Dec 1972 [5 June 1972] 55887/72 Heading G3T [Also in Division G4] A device for the surveillance of persons expected to perform particular actions in an allotted time, for example of invalid or old people in their homes or watchmen on their rounds, comprises a timing device which, if it is not reset by the performance of the action being detected by an operating unit, brings an alarm into operation after the allotted time. In the embodiment shown the timing device comprises a synchronous clock 11 driving a clutch plate 13, and a spring urged second clutch plate 14 carrying a pointer 17 for actuation of a switch 18 connected to alarm 19. The plate 14 is zeroed by spring 16 on energization of a solenoid 20 by the operating unit 21. In the first application mentioned above the operating units may be associated with lighting switches or other electrical appliances and the alarm is located externally of the home. Other switches 22 are provided for manual operation to actuate the alarm. When used for the surveillance of a watchman's round each point to be visited by the watchman is provided with key or code-freed means for effecting resetting of the timing means. As the time taken to move between consecutive points on the round varies the plate 14 is returned to different positions depending on the point from which it is reset, the reset position being controlled by selectively actuated stops.
