  • Patent number: 7284880
    Abstract: A security device with rotating floodlights comprises a housing having a control circuit and a motor positioned within the housing. A motion detector is mounted on the front wall of the housing. A shaft from the motor engages with a drive platform, and a pair of lamp base platforms is connected to a pair of turntables on the top wall of the housing. The turntables are mounted on the top wall of the housing, and are constructed to be rotatable either clockwise or counterclockwise. Lamp sockets for flood lights are attached to the lamp base platforms. Posts are mounted on the base platforms and drive platforms with linkages engaged with the posts. When the motion detector communicates with the control circuit, and the motor and lights are activated, the platforms turn in a synchronized manner because of the linkages. Illumination is provided for a set period of time and over a swept 180° of coverage.
