Abstract

Abstract A automatic surveillance camera equipment contains an infrared ray detecting sensor (1) having a plurality of sensing zones and for detecting an intruder within a watching area and transmitting its signal to a control device, a control device (2) for sending a command signal to a camera unit (5) in response to the signal from the infrared ray detecting sensor, the camera unit supplying a response signal to a camera (7) in response to the command signal from the control device. The camera synchronizes a strobe (8) and the camera shutter with each other by the response signal from the camera unit, automatically shoots, and automatically rewinds a film. These parts are together in a protective case. The equipment performs photography of an intruder on each of the sensing zones of the infrared sensor when the intruder enters the watching area. An alarm system is directly communicated to the outside through a telephone line to transmit a signal.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 152 words
A automatic surveillance camera equipment, comprising: an infrared ray detecting sensor having a plurality of sensing zones, and for detecting an intruder within a watching area and transmitting its signal to a control device; a control device for sending a command signal to a camera unit in response to the signal from the infrared ray detecting sensor; a camera unit for supplying a response signal to a camera in response to the command signal from the control device; a camera for synchronizing a strobe and a camera shutter with each other on the response signal from camera unit and automatically shooting; and a protective case for accommodating the infrared ray detecting sensor, the control device, the camera unit and the camera together, whereby the equipment is intended to perform photography of an intruder on each of the sensing zones of the infrared ray detecting sensor when the intruder enters the watching area.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 24 words
A automatic surveillance camera equipment according to Claim 1, further comprising a built-in battery which operates automatically when a power supply from outside stops.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
A automatic surveillance camera equipment according to claim 1 or 2 wherein a film is automatically rewound when another film is loaded in the camera, and said exposed film is automatically held into a patrone.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
A automatic surveillance camera equipment according to claim 1, 2 or 3 wherein a threatening alarm bell operates simultaneously when an intruder enters a watching area.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A automatic surveillance camera equipment according to any of claims 1 to 4 and further comprising a vibration sensor and a threatening alarm bell which are operative when an intruder touches with a protective case.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 146 words
An alarming system, comprising: an infrared ray detecting sensor having a plurality of sensing zones, and for detecting an intruder within a watching area and transmitting its signal to a control device; a control device for sending a command signal to a camera unit in response to the signal from the infrared ray detecting sensor; a camera unit for supplying a response signal to a camera in response to the command signal from the control device; a camera for synchronizing a strobe and a camera shutter each other by the response signal from the camera unit, automatically shooting, and automatically rewinding a film simultaneously; a protective case for accommodating the infrared ray detecting sensor, the control device, the camera unit and the camera together; and a transmitting means for directly sending a signal from the infrared ray detecting sensor to the outside through a telephone line.
