  • Publication number: 20070013533
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor unit for detecting the wetting of a diaper. Signals from the condensation sensor are used to control an audible alarm and/or musical chime unit. The signals of the moisture sensor, on the contrary, are used to control the ground connection of a musical chip. A sensor unit, which comprises two contacts, mounted on a circular housing base is placed on the interior of the diaper. In a preferred variant, both contacts are coupled to a common switchable evaluation unit, which utilizes the conductivity of moisture to complete a ground to the musical alarm. In an improvement of the invention, both contacts are integrated into a plastic waterproof sensor module.

  • Publication number: 20060096151
    Abstract: An electronic ice fishing signaling device comprising of a circular frame member with three arms positioned in a star configuration and adapted to be supported in an upright position in an ice hole in an operative position. Support means are pivotally mounted legs attached to the support arms which are, adjustable to span an ice hole and support the circular frame member in an upright position. An actuator rod is pin mounted to the circular frame member and has a crank operated reel at the end thereof and positioned thereon to be above water when the circular frame member is in an operative position. A switch tripper is attached to the actuator rod at the upper end thereof, and is rotatable essentially ninety degrees to an armed position and will rotate downward when released from the armed position. A microswitch is mounted to the actuator rod end under the switch tripper when said column member is in an operative position. The actuator rod has a FM transmitter at the end thereof.
