US Patent:

7649468, Jan 19, 2010

Filed:

May 13, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/844001

Inventors:

Thomas Gordon - Round Rock TX, US

International Classification:

G08B 21/00

US Classification:

340620, 340622

Abstract:

A system comprising at least one liquid detector that has a cathode and an anode and at least one switching mechanism for receiving a positive voltage from the cathode and anode of a liquid detector. Each switching mechanism comprises at least one switching component that is connected with a power source. Each switching component supplying a current from its connected power source when the switching component is activated. Preferably, each switching component is activated, when the switching component receives a voltage that exceeds a threshold voltage. The system also comprises a base unit that communicates remotely or through direct connection with each switching mechanism. The base unit communicates with at least one application control device that is connected with at least one electronic control apparatus for preventing the undesirable condition. The base unit may also be connected with at least one notification control device that is connected with an electronic notification apparatus for notifying a user that the undesirable condition has been detected. The electronic notification apparatus may comprise a visible light or LED and/or an alarm.

International Classification:

G01N 5/02

US Classification:

073073000

Abstract:

A system is disclosed for detecting moisture in a garment. The system comprises at least one moisture detection portion integrated with the garment. Each moisture detection portion comprises a cathode and an anode and may also comprise a housing or panel surrounding the electrodes. The system also comprises at least one switching mechanism for receiving a positive voltage from the cathode and the anode of a moisture detection portion, when the cathode and the anode are in the presence of a polar liquid. Each switching mechanism comprises at least one switching component and at least one power source. Each switching mechanism supplies current from at least one of its power sources to at least one notification device or at least one transmitter, or both, when its switching components are activated.
