Definitions

  • the present invention relates, as hereunder stated, to a warning device for warning of the absence of activity in a household with a single occupier, the purpose of which device is to draw atten ⁇ tion of people if no movement has taken place in its protection zone since a predetermined period of time.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a warning device for warning of the absence of activity in a household with a single occu ⁇ pier which can overcome the above-mentionned drawbacks. If the present warning device has not sensed any movement within a preset- table period of time which can be considered as normal as for example evening rest or sleeping time, it will activate an alarm inside the house and, should this interior alarm not having been switched off after a short period of time this interior alarm will be desactivated and an exterior alarm will then be activated.
  • the warning device of the present invention comprises a motion detector associated with a timer and an alarm switch in order to perform the previous operations.
  • the device Once installed, the device only requires a programmation of the normal time for an absence of activity or movement and, in extended period of absence such as holidays or the like, to be disconnected. Under any other circumstance, a detection of some activity by the motion detec- tor incorporated therein always resets the device according to the preset time for an absence of activity.
  • the warning device for warning of the absence of activity in a household with a single occu ⁇ pier comprises a motion detector 1 which can be an infrared, ultrasonic sensor or the like, operatively connected with a timer 2 and an alarm switch 3 in such a way that if when the timer 2 has been set to a time delay proportional to a normal sleeping time the motion detector 1 has not sensed any movement within a protected zone 4 of the households after that time has elapsed, which zone is preferably the passageway to the bathroom, the device actua ⁇ tes an interior alarm 5; if after a short period of time such as for example one minute this interior alarm 5 has not been switched off an exterior alarm 6 will be actuated such as for example via a telephone or sound alarm.
  • a motion detector 1 which can be an infrared, ultrasonic sensor or the like, operatively connected with a timer 2 and an alarm switch 3 in such a way that if when the timer 2 has been set to a time delay proportional to a
  • the timer 2 outputs a signal to switch on the alarm switch 3 but if any movement occurs within said zone 4 before the end of the time delay d e timer 2 will be automatically reset and this happens every time a movement is detected. If for example the timer 2 has been set with a time delay of eight hours and die detec ⁇ tor 1 senses a movement after four hours, as for example the move ⁇ ment of the occupier who goes to the bathroom, at that point the timer is automatically reset so that eight more hours must again elapse befo ⁇ re the alarm 5 can be activated.
  • the exterior alarm 6 will remain operating until somebody enters the house and specifically enters the protected zone 4.

Abstract

Dispositif servant à signaler l'inactivité au domicile d'une personne seule. Il sert principalement à attirer l'attention au cas où aucune activité n'aurait eu lieu dans sa zone de protection après un laps de temps prédéterminé. Le dispositif est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un détecteur de mouvement (1) associé activement à une minuterie (2) et à un commutateur d'alarme (3), ladite minuterie étant programmée en fonction d'un retard dans le temps proportionnel à la durée normale du sommeil, et adaptée pour déclencher une alarme intérieure (5) au cas où ledit détecteur de mouvement (1) n'aurait détecté aucun mouvement dans sa zone de protection (4) après ledit laps de temps. Ladite alarme intérieure (5) déclenche une alarme extérieure (6) par voie téléphonique, ou une alarme sonore si cette alarme n'a pas été coupée au cours d'une courte période prédéterminée. L'alarme extérieure (6) continue de sonner jusqu'à ce que quelqu'un pénètre dans ladite zone de protection (4), et ladite minuterie se remet automatiquement à zéro aussitôt que le détecteur de mouvement (1) détecte un mouvement.
