Call box apparatus
First Claim
1. A call box apparatus, comprising:
- a controller unit;
a radio frequency audio transceiver unit positioned in electrical communication with and controlled by said controller unit;
a sensor assembly connected to said controller unit for controlling operation of said controller unit;
a power supply assembly connected to said controller unit;
an output speaker unit connected to said controller unit;
an input microphone unit connected to said controller unit;
an audio storage assembly connected to said controller unit, said audio storage assembly including a first voice message, the audio storage assembly being positioned in electrical communication with said radio frequency audio transceiver unit;
wherein said first voice message is automatically transmitted by said radio frequency audio transceiver unit when said sensor assembly is actuated; and
said audio storage assembly includes a second voice message, wherein said second voice message is automatically generated through said output speaker unit after said first voice message is transmitted by said radio frequency audio transceiver unit.

Abstract
A call box apparatus includes a controller unit, a radio frequency audio transceiver unit controlled by the controller unit, and a sensor assembly connected to the controller unit for controlling operation of the controller unit. A power supply assembly, an audio storage assembly, an output speaker unit, and an input microphone unit are connected to the controller unit. A housing assembly houses the controller unit, the radio frequency audio transceiver unit, the sensor assembly, the power supply assembly, the audio storage assembly, the output speaker unit, and the input microphone unit. The housing assembly includes a hinged door. The housing assembly includes a first housing portion which supports the door, and a second housing portion which supports the first housing portion. The door includes a door lock assembly. The sensor assembly includes an open-door sensor and a key-operated switch assembly. The power supply assembly includes a rechargeable battery. A solar panel assembly and a power supply interface assembly are connected to the rechargeable battery and the solar panel assembly. When the door is opened, an automatic sequence takes place. Power is applied to the radio frequency audio transceiver unit and all logic circuits. The radio transmits an alarm tone (warble) and a voice message identifying the call box apparatus. A second voice message emanates from the output speaker unit to deliver user instructions. At this point, the call box apparatus becomes a two-way radio station.
