Abstract
An electro-mechanical horn is configured with a body, a sound-generating unit mounted in the body, and a plurality of power source receiving regions for storing at least one removably mounted power source in a storage manner while containing a second power source in an operative manner thereby limiting discontinuity of the operation of the sound-generating unit.
Claims5
A horn comprising:
- a body;
- a sound generating unit in said body;
- at least two electrical power source storage regions in said body;
- an electrical control circuit mounted in said body and operably enabling electrical current flow from at least one external power source stored within at least one of said at least two electrical power source storage regions to said sound generating unit upon an actuation thereof;
- and
- said electrical control circuit executing software operative to selectively couple between said sound generating unit and said at least two electrical power source storage regions, wherein upon receiving said at least one external power source in one of said electrical power source storage regions said software selectively designates a coupling to said power source to provide a continuous power supply to the sound generating unit during said actuation.
