Abstract:
1. An attention getting baton, comprising: a hollow tubular structure being one piece and for communicating illumination through the baton; a rear tubular part of the hollow tubular structure for providing a holding compartment and defining a handle member for the hollow tubular structure of the baton; a ribbed rubber grip for wrapping around the rear tubular part and nearly covering the rear tubular part for easy handling of the baton when illumination being communicated through the hollow structure; a front tubular part being exposed and formed of industrial grade plastic with ribbed groves for guiding illumination communicated from the rear tubular part; a stationary ring stop positioned between the rear tubular part and the front tubular part in the hollow tubular structure for further defining the holding compartment by providing a stopping function from the rear tubular part to the front tubular part of the hollow tubular structure; a tubular shaped removable rear cap having a diameter slightly larger than the rear tubular part for forming a slip fit type connection and abutting the ribbed rubber grip when positioned snuggly around the rear tubular part and for providing an easily accessible rear access into the holding compartment of the hollow tubular structure; a button mounted to the tubular shaped removable rear cap, the button being aligned on a center axis of the hollow tubular structure and for switching the baton into a plurality of modes with the plurality of modes being an on/off mode, a strobe mode, and a mode to generate help or an SOS signal; a removable tubular shaped front cap having a diameter slightly larger than the front tubular part and being made of a pliable clear plastic vinyl material for illuminating light communicated from the rear tubular part through the front tubular part of the hollow tubular structure, and for snugly and securely forming a slip tight fitting with the front tubular part of the hollow tubular structure so as to be positioned away from the rear removable rear cap with the stationary ring stop positioned in between in the hollow tubular structure; and a high intensity flashlight being inserted into the holding compartment of the rear tubular part of the hollow tubular structure for communicating a high intensity light beam illuminated through the front tubular part and the clear flexible vinyl plastic top cap.
