Abstract
A warning device to discourage the unauthorized entering of doors and windows utilizing a spring contracted bellows held in an extended condition by anchor means associated with building closure structure. Upon the opening of the associated door or window one of the anchor means is released permitting the bellows to be rapidly contracted producing an audible sound by means of a vibratable reed to warn the occupant and discourage the intruder from further entry.

A burglar alarm for indicating the opening of a building closure comprising, in combination, an elongated bellows having an axis, first and second ends and expansible and contractable in its axial direction, a tension spring within said bellows having first and second ends, said first spring end being affixed to said bellows' first end and said second spring end being affixed to said bellow' second end whereby said spring biases said bellows toward its connected condition, an air passage communicating with the interior of said bellows, a vibratable read within said air passage producing an audible signal during movement of said member from the expanded condition to the contracted condition, first anchor means defined upon said first end, and second anchor means defined on said second end.
A burglar alarm for indicating the opening of a building closure comprising, in combination, an elongated bellows having an axis and first and second ends, a head mounted in each bellows end closing the associated end, a tension spring within said bellows having an end affixed to each head biasing said bellows toward a contracted condition, an air passage defined in at least one of said heads communicating with interior of said bellows, a vibratable reed within said air passage producing an audible signal upon air flowing therethrough during contracting of said bellows, and an anchor means defined upon said heads whereby said anchor means may be associated with closure structure to maintain said bellows in an extended condition.
