Abstract: An apparatus for safe and even tanning of a tanner comprises a disc shaped bed rotatably supported upon a disc shaped base. A drive system is adapted to rotate the bed with respect to the base at a predetermined rate such that a tanner lying on the bed beneath the source of tanning radiation receives uniform exposure. A reflector attached to the periphery of the bed reflects tanning radiation toward the sides of a tanner lying on the bed and an alarm responsive to the rotation of the bed produces an audible attention signal upon the completion of a predetermined number of rotations of the bed.

Abstract: Energy is slowly stored in at least two spring members mounted juxtaposition one another, the stored energy being released substantially instantaneously and individually, a single member engaging a striker first, the striker then engaging an alarm device such as a bell, subsequent members striking prior members to move the striker and again engage the alarm device.
