Abstract
A siren has a housing, a motor, an acoustic actuator and a horn. Multiple vents are defined in the housing. The acoustic actuator is rotatably mounted in the housing and is rotated by the motor. The horn is mounted on the housing to provide a resonant effect. Accordingly, the air can be drawn into the housing through the vents by the acoustic actuator. The sound will generated by the impact between air and each block in the acoustic actuator and the interruption of the airflow by the blocks. Consequently, the process for assembling the siren is simplified. The sound quality of the siren will be consistent and improved.

- a motor with a rotating shaft mounted on the closed end of the housing to rotate the acoustic actuator;
- and
- a horn mounted on the housing to cover the open end of the housing to enclose the acoustic actuator within the housing.
