摘要： The present invention is a housing for a surface-mountable device such as a security device (a PIR, a microwave motion detector, and the like). The housing has a surface-mountable housing portion with at least one aperture for receiving a surface-mounting member therethrough, the housing portion fabricated substantially from a plastic material. A member-retaining portion is integrally molded with the housing portion and extends substantially perpendicular from said housing portion, said member-retaining portion adapted to receive a surface-mounting member when inserted therethrough and retain said surface-mounting member in place. As a result of this configuration, when a surface-mounting member such as a screw is inserted therethrough, the surface-mounting member is held in place by the member-retaining portion and is insertable through the aperture when pressure is applied thereto. Preferably, the aperture is circular and the member-retaining portion is substantially cylindrical with at least one slot extending along said member-retaining portion. The member-retaining portion is adapted so as to allow a user to push a surface-mounting member therethrough and to hold the surface-mounting member in place. The member-retaining portion is compressible and/or collapsible so that when a surface-mounting member is inserted therethrough so as to force the surface-mountable housing portion against a wall, the member-retaining portion is substantially compressed and/or collapsed between a head portion of the surface-mounting member and the housing portion.

摘要： A wireless security device, such as a door or window motion sensor, that can be mounted almost entirely within a recess of a door, window or frame, with only the antenna mounted on the surface of the door or window jamb. The wireless security device has a housing suitable for being embedded within a structure such as a door, window or frame. In the housing are a security sensor circuit adapted to generate an alarm signal when activated, a radio frequency (RF) transmitter connected to the security sensor circuit for transmitting an RF signal when the alarm signal is generated, and a power source (such as a battery, piezoelectric element, solar cell or fuel cell) for supplying operating power to the security sensor circuit and the RF transmitter. A substantially flat surface mountable strip is located in proximity to the housing and is suitable for being mounted outside (i.e. along the surface of the structure). The surface mountable strip has an antenna that is coupled to the RF transmitter for emitting electromagnetic energy corresponding to the RF signal from the transmitter. In addition, the embedded antenna provides a predictable transmission pattern resulting in increased range and reliability.

摘要： A security system device including a single housing including at least a primary alarm sensor, an alarm verification unit, and processing circuitry. The primary alarm sensor is adapted to monitor a primary protected area and to generate a primary alarm signal when the primary alarm sensor is triggered. The alarm verification unit selectively provides verification information (e.g. video and/or audio signals) from at least part of the primary protected area to a central station monitor. The processing circuitry is adapted to generate an alarm enable signal when the primary alarm signal is generated. On the occurrence of an alarm enable signal, the processing circuitry generates an alarm detected signal and causes the alarm detected signal to be transmitted to a central station monitor, enables operation of the alarm verification unit, and enables transmission of the verification information from the protected area to the central station monitor. A secondary alarm sensor may also be included within the housing, in which case the alarm enable signal is generated only on the triggering of both the primary and secondary alarm sensors. The primary alarm sensor may be adapted to cause the sensitivity of the secondary alarm sensor to be modified on the triggering of the primary alarm sensor.
