    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an electronic visual distress signal device. In one embodiment, the invention may comprise a waterproof housing comprising: a bulbous portion; a cylindrical portion; and a collar portion. An optical lens may be coupled to the collar portion, extend along a central lens axis, and comprise: an outer lens surface comprising a central outer flat surface located along the central lens axis and an outer convex surface radially outward of the central outer flat surface; and an inner lens surface comprising a central inner flat surface located along the central lens axis and an inner concave surface radially outward of the central inner flat surface. A light source may be positioned beneath the central inner flat surface so that light emitted from the light source passes through the optical lens. A power source may be located within the cylindrical portion.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a visual distress signal device that includes a housing having an internal cavity with a first electrical contact and a power source positioned therein in an electrically coupled manner. An electronic assembly is at least partially positioned within the internal cavity of the housing. Such an electronic assembly may include a second electrical contact that is electrically coupled to the power source, a third electrical contact, and a light source. The device may also include a lens member detachably coupled to the housing to close an open top end of the housing in a watertight manner. A float member may be detachably coupled to the housing to provide buoyancy to the device. The electronic assembly may be movable within the internal cavity to electronically couple and decouple the third electrical contact and the first electrical contact to selectively power the light source.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an electronic visual distress signal device or emergency beacon. Specifically, the visual distress signal device has a housing containing a power source and an electronic assembly that is operably coupled to the power source The electronic assembly includes a light source so that when the power source and the electronic assembly form a closed circuit, the light source is activated. The light source may be configured to emit an SOS signal. Furthermore, the device may include a lens member that is configured to refract light emitted by the light source in at least two separate patterns including a 360 degree horizontal pattern and a vertical pattern. The visual distress device may include a float member formed of compressible foam to permit the device to float when placed in water.
