Abstract: A novel modular audible signaling device is provided capable of expanded functionality, such as the provision of visual signaling as well. A piezoelectric transducer audible alarm signaling device is provided with an assembly having a housing defining an interior holding a piezoelectric transducer, the housing having a first exterior portion for attachment to a surface and a second exterior portion extending beyond the surface, wherein the first exterior portion and the second exterior portion comprise at least one pair of communicating apertures whereby an electrical conductor may extend through the at least one pair of apertures to the surface.

Abstract: A low profile security device for television remote controls, televisions, and other appliances has a lower housing that encloses a leaf spring. The control module is held by an upper housing with a stud on the bottom. The stud can be locked in an opening in the lower housing by the leaf spring. A key-like member can be inserted through a hole in the side of the lower housing and a similar hole in a tab inside the lower housing. Rotation of the key-like member depresses the leaf spring, permitting the release of the stud. Another embodiment of the release mechanism uses a rod with a tapered or pointed tip that permits the rod to pass through the side hole and over the leaft spring.
