Abstract
A portable panic alarm assembly includes a housing and an audible alarm device mounted within the housing. The alarm device is electrically and operably interconnected between first and second alarm contacts. A battery mounted within the housing has a pair of oppositely charged electrodes. A first electrode is connected to the first alarm contact. An actuator switch is slidably mounted in the housing and includes an actuator contact. The actuator switch is operably alternated between an open state, wherein the second battery electrode is disconnected from the second alarm contact to deactivate the alarm and a closed state, wherein the second battery electrode is connected to the second alarm contact to activate and sound the alarm.
