Patent ID: 8264351

Claim:
A security alarm system comprising: a drive assembly with a controller for moving an object, a security reset button for terminating alarm functions for the system, and an alarm; and a circuit assembly including a first circuit for moving the object and a second circuit for generating the alarm in response to unauthorized moving of the object; the first circuit including a motor and a controller with an up button and a down button, a lift switch with opposed poles in series with the motor functioning to open and close the first circuit, an object lift relay coupled in parallel to the poles of the lift switch, and the lift switch being selectively adapted to be a contactor adapted to be controlled by a keyless remote; the second circuit including a security reset switch and a security relay wired in series, the security reset switch being a push-type reset push button adapted to reset the alarm following activation of the system, the alarm being an audio-visual signal in parallel with the security relay and in series with the security reset switch, parallel contacts between the security reset switch and the security relay, a contact in series between the security reset button and the alarm, the security relay adapted to be picked up by the lift relay for functioning to self hold and energize the alarm, up and down buttons adapted to be pushed for opening and closing the second circuit and for causing the lift relay to pick up, the lift relay functioning to pick up the contact latching the contacts on the security relay which then activates the alarm, an applicable voltage power source for the security relay constituting a power source to the alarm whereby a power source to the motor is independent of the power source to the alarm.
