Patent ID: 7084777

Claim:
A fluid leak detection device, comprising: a platform having at least one fluid concentration zone forming a fluid detection area extending substantially along the length of the platform; a first and second electrically conductive member, positioned in said fluid concentration zone, wherein a gap is formed between said first and second electrically conductive members, wherein said electrically conductive members extend substantially along the length of said platform; a fluid detector comprising a battery coupled to said first and second electrically conductive members and configured to generate a fluid detection signal in response to the presence of a fluid between said first and second electrically conductive members, said battery having a first terminal and a second terminal, wherein said first terminal is coupled to said first electrically conductive member; and a notification system comprising an indicator having a first terminal coupled to said second electrically conductive member and a second terminal coupled to said second terminal of said battery, wherein said notification system is activated in response to said fluid detection signal.
