Emergency telecommunication device
First Claim
1. An emergency telecommunication device comprising:
- a telecommunications control circuit, in connection with a phone-OUT jack, having an automatic dialing circuit preprogrammed to dial an emergency telephone number;
a digital-to-analog voice circuit adapted to transmit one of three predetermined messages to an emergency operator when said control circuit is activated by one of three activation buttons;
a medical emergency activation control button, a fire activation control button, and a police activation control button; and
a touch tone decoding circuit adapted to allow an emergency operator to play first and second user programmable messages and to control a microphone and a speaker that are interconnected to said control circuit, respectively, through a microphone input port and a speaker output port;
each said activation control button being keyed to a specific message that corresponds to a particular type emergency;
Each of said fire, medical emergency and police control activation buttons being disposed through apertures formed through a first activation button housing panel and being surrounded on sides thereof by a first, second and third ridge, respectively, that extends away from said first activation button housing panel a distance of about one-eighth (1/8") inch;
said fire, medical emergency and police control activation buttons being coverable by a pivoting lid member that engages a device activation control switch;
said device activation control switch being in electrical connection with said control circuit in a manner such that positioning said device activation control switch in a first position controls an ON/OFF state of said control circuit.

Abstract
An emergency telecommunications device comprising a telecommunications control circuit having an automatic dialing circuit preprogrammed to dial 911; a digital-to-analog voice circuit to transmit one of three predetermined messages to an emergency operator when the control circuit is activated by one of three activation buttons: a medical emergency activation control button, a fire activation control button, and a police activation control button; and a touch tone decoding circuit that allows an emergency operator to play first and second user programmable messages and to control various functions of the telecommunications device. The fire, medical emergency and police control activation buttons are normally covered by a pivoting lid member. Closure of the lid member actuates a device activation control switch. When the lid member is in a fully closed position the telecommunications device is in the OFF state. When the lid member is in a partially or fully open position the telecommunications device is the ON state.
