Synchronized multifocal emergency alert system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A synchronized, multifocal emergency alert system, comprising:
- a device/emergency kit container;
a zipper track disposed on the emergency kit container;
a zipper slider disposed on the zipper track for opening and closing the emergency kit container;
a non-conductive pull tab connected to the zipper slider;
an access tab disposed on the emergency kit container and connected to the non-conductive pull tab;
an electronic device disposed inside the emergency kit container, wherein the electronic device is in synchronous electrical communication with a plurality of remote locations and entities;
a battery operated circuit disposed inside the emergency kit container and operably connected to the electronic device;
a spring-biased electrical switch included in the battery-operated circuit, the spring biased electrical switch energizing the electronic device when the spring-biased electrical switch is closed, the non-conductive pull tab being disposed between a switch pole and a switch throw arm of the switch, thereby keeping the electrical switch open until the non-conductive pull tab is pulled; and
wherein when the access tab is pulled and the zipper is slid along the zipper track, the non-conductive pull tab is removed from between the switch pole and switch throw arm, the switch throw arm being spring-biased to close the switch, thereby completing the battery-operated circuit to activate the electronic device.

Abstract
The synchronized, multifocal emergency alert system may include a device/emergency kit container, or may be incorporated into a belt, harness, or other personal protective equipment. The system may include a zipper slider, a zipper, access tab, alert device, and non-conductive pull tab. When the non-conductive pull tab is pulled, the alert device is triggered, and the synchronous, multifocal system alerts monitors that an emergency situation has occurred involving traumatic injury and alerting the monitors of the location of the emergency situation.

6. A synchronized multifocal emergency alert system, comprising:
-
a compartment attached to a portable accessory, the compartment having an access opening and an actuator for opening and closing the access opening; an alert device disposed in the compartment, the alert device having a circuit including a power source, a spring-biased electrical switch having contacts, and a transmitting circuit configured for transmitting a synchronous multifocal alert signal when power is applied from the power source to the transmitting circuit; and a pull tab connected between the actuator and the electrical switch, the pull tab being disposed between the electrical switch contacts to maintain the electrical switch in an open position when the access opening to the compartment is closed, thereby disconnecting power from the power source to the transmitting circuit, the pull tab being pulled from between the electrical switch contacts when the actuator opens the access opening in the compartment, thereby closing the electrical switch and applying power to the transmitting circuit to transmit the synchronous multifocal alert signal.

7. A synchronized multifocal emergency alert system, comprising:
-
a compartment attached to a portable accessory, the compartment having an access opening and an actuator for opening and closing the access opening; an alert device disposed in the compartment, the alert device having a circuit including a power source, a spring-biased electrical switch having contacts, and a transmitting circuit configured for transmitting a multifocal alert signal when power is applied from the power source to the transmitting circuit; and a sensor, the sensor being in electrical communication with the spring-biased electrical switch, wherein the sensor is equipped with a predetermined threshold event and is adapted to automatically trigger the spring-biased electrical switch whenever the predetermined threshold event is exceeded thereby transmitting the synchronous multifocal alert signal. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
