Abstract: A rewriting apparatus control circuit includes a display system and a processor. The processor includes a first input terminal receiving a rewriting complete signal from the rewriting apparatus; a second input terminal receiving a rewriting success signal from the rewriting apparatus; an output terminal connecting to the rewrite apparatus for sending a restarting signal; and data terminals connected to the display system. Once the rewriting complete signal from the rewriting apparatus is received, the processor subtracts one for each restarting sent from a preset number and then sends a result to the display system for displaying and sends the restarting signal to the rewriting apparatus for restarting the rewriting apparatus if the result is greater than zero. The processor accumulates a number of times that the rewriting success signal is received from the rewriting apparatus, and sends the number to the display system for displaying when the result is zero.

Abstract: An electronic wire-based safety device for the detection of a theft of an object to be protected, the device including at least one detector connected by a wire-based electric link to a signalling unit, the detector being arranged in relation with an object to be protected, the detector exhibiting at least a first electrical status in relation with the object and a second status when the object is detached from the detector, the unit including at least one threshold voltage comparator with inputs/outputs whereof one input is connected to the detector by the link and whereof at least one output indicates by signals at least the presence or the absence of the object in relation to the status of the detector.

Abstract: An apparatus for detecting intrusions into spaces of various kinds such as apartments, offices, lockers, and the like by either authorized or unauthorized persons apparatus monitors a specific portal for intrusion occurrence events using an intrusion sensing unit, which communicates intrusion occurrence information to a remote, and possibly hidden monitor unit. The monitor dynamically counts the number of valid intrusion occurrence signals received from the sensing unit and stores the same in non-volatile memory. The number of intrusions stored in memory can be displayed on a display means at the monitor unit, which, in a simple embodiment would take the form of a single, seven segment light emitting diode (LED) display. In addition, the number of intrusions stored in the non-volatile memory can only be reset by the input of a unique, coded personal identification number (PIN) signal from an input keypad located on the monitor unit.

Abstract: Embodiments of improvements to a money clip alarm system of a cashier's drawer are disclosed. In one embodiment, a terminal contact block device is mounted to the drawer tray and a non-shorting feed through spring contact block device is mounted to the drawer housing. When the contact block devices are not touching, the electrical path from the money clip to the remote alarm automatically disconnects allowing convenient removal of the drawer tray from the drawer housing. A second embodiment includes a push button switch which changes state when the drawer tray is removed from the drawer housing providing an alternative electrical path from the drawer housing to the remote alarm and preventing activation of the remote alarm system. The preferred embodiment includes a magnetic switch in place of the push button switch mounted between the drawer tray and the drawer housing.

Abstract: A feed box monitoring device for counting the revolutions of an auger or the like used in mixing two or more feed ingredients in a feed box. The device alerting an operator when a uniform mix has been obtained in the feed box.

Abstract: A cash register security system has a first latch normally adapted to engage and securely hold within a cash register a false drawer, a release device connected to the first latch for releasing the first latch from engaging and holding the false drawer within the cash register, a second latch adapted to engage and hold within the cash register a cash drawer, the second latch normally being in disengagement with the cash drawer, a locking device connected to the second latch for locking the second latch in engagement with the cash drawer and holding the cash drawer within the cash register, an alarm circuit connected to the release device and the locking device and an alarm switch connected to the alarm circuit for operating the alarm circuit and activating the release device and the locking device whereby the cash drawer is locked within the cash register and only the false drawer may be ejected from the cash register after the alarm switch is operated.
