Abstract: An electronic device to warn of a low water level, particularly in a Christmas tree water reservoir base. A flashing unit provides an affect to an outlet where the strand of lights on the tree or another lighted device will turn on and off until the water is filled into the base again. A message will be played at intervals through a speaker in an ornament, possibly hung on the tree. The message is recorded by pressing a button then speaking into a microphone. Messages are limited only to the human imagination. The lights will stop flashing and the message will stop playing when the water is filled into the reservoir base. The circuitry is housed separately away from the base to prevent shock.

Abstract: Many people like to enhance their surroundings by decoration and setting lights and displays. The invention described in this application intends to give a novel effect to a spinning fan mainly during the later hours of a day. When a fan spins with a glowing light attached to one or all of it's blades, a strobe or circular even elliptical light appears. It may be pleasing to one's eye and desirable as an interesting characteristic to a fan. The invention could even aid in one's navigation about the room in pitch dark. The device consists of a small housing about one by two inches in dimension. The housing encloses a gravity switch to operate the light on and off, a battery compartment with a cap to house the power source, a clip with a special tip to help fasten the whole assembly to the fan blade, and circuitry that can be designed to operate multi-colored LEDs.

Abstract: With this invention, a Christmas tree can be held with stability in an upright position. The base will provide a track molded into the base for battery-operated trains or a track that is affixed to the base providing the electricity needed through metallic rails. The tree can be a cut live tree or a plastic replica tree. The scale of the track or train is only limited to a practical size of the base.

Abstract: A mechanism for viewing the angle of one's joint by simply attaching bands around the limbs relative to the affected joint. A read out may help a patient regain full range-of-motion after surgery, especially when ligaments must heal and joints are immobilized for a long time. An angle sensor attached to a hinge axis about the joint, sends a signal to a converter which converts that signal into a legible readout so the patient can record or make goals to regain motion in the affected joint. The bands are detachable so the patient can remove the mechanism after use.

Abstract: A Christmas tree holding device that incorporates decor mental combustible fuel powered vehicle themes or motifs. A water level gauge will display the amount of water in a basin inside the base. This allows for the careful inspection of the water level so a fire hazard, like a dry tree, can be suppressed. A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter is incorporated in the base so tree lights and other decorative items can be plugged in and be controlled by a possible handset. A float switch is activated when the basin is emptied by the water being absorbed by the tree. The switch activates a gauge that will read empty and the sounder circuit will alarm by sending out a “chugging” noise like a vehicle running out of fuel. It is then time to fill the basin with water. Another float switch is activated when the basin is full. This switch activates the water level gauge to read “full” and a “vroom” sound is heard notifying that the basin is full and to stop adding water. Lighted gauges will give a desirable effect.

Abstract: An improved angle deciphering and leveling device that transmits a radio frequency to a receiver located on or near the person using the level and also to a second receiver on or near a person who can double-check the level-user's work. The level works with a tilt switch that rotates about a shaft. The shaft is connected to a knob and spool. The spool is attached to the shaft. The tilt switch is attached to the spool. The tilt switch corresponds to a dial face that reads in angular degrees. When the tradesman sets the knob to the desired angle, the tilt switch corresponds to that angle and when the level is tilted to the preset angle a radio-frequency transmitter is triggered. When the transmission signal is received by the proper same frequency receiver, a alarm will sound verifying the angle has been reached. An on/off power switch will shut off the level when not in use.

Abstract: This invention is an improvement on typical operating smoke sensors or detectors. By allowing remote detection of smoke/heat, the RF signal detectors presented in this document can turn on their alarms when smoke is detected in other rooms and not by all the detectors in a group. The number of detectors in a group is only limited by the size of the structure in which they are installed. During the winter holidays a Christmas tree smoke/heat detector can be hung on the Christmas tree to give advanced warning if the tree was to ignite. The ornament can transmit to the other detectors in a group, turning all alarms on so anyone in the structure can hear an early warning signal and then hopefully abandon the structure in time.
