Abstract: An event annunciator may be provided. The event annunciator may comprise a housing, an alerting element, a switch, and a lanyard. The housing may be configured to mount on a pole that supports an electric power line. The alerting element may be in the housing and may have an active state and an inactive state. The switch may be in the housing and may have a first position and a second position. The first position may cause the alerting element to remain in the inactive state. The second position may cause the alerting element to remain in the active state. The lanyard may be configured to cause the switch to operate from the first state to the second state when the lanyard is pulled from the housing.

Abstract: A device for automatically sterilizing toothbrushes when the toothbrushes are not in use. A germicidal lamp and toothbrushes are held within an apertured casing which is mounted on a vertical wall. A dial selector allows one of a plurality of toothbrushes to be aligned with the aperture for removal and replacement of toothbrushes from the casing. Electrical circuitry is provided to act as a switch for the lamp. The lamp is energized only when the aperture is blocked to thereby prevent the potentially dangerous "short" ultraviolet rays emitted by the lamp to escape from the casing.
