This patent covers a remote control system that allows caregivers to turn electrical appliances on and off from a distance using a wireless remote. The system is designed primarily for safety, helping prevent accidents when individuals with memory issues might forget to turn off appliances like stoves. The device installs between the appliance and wall outlet, providing wireless control up to 300 feet away.
This patent describes a remotely controlled power assembly designed to enhance safety by allowing remote control of electrical appliances, particularly kitchen appliances like electric stoves. The system includes a power box that mounts to an appliance and contains a switching relay, receiver, and female outlet for the appliance's power cord. A master power cord connects the assembly to the main power source, while a wireless receiver communicates with a handheld remote control. The technology is particularly valuable for caregivers managing individuals with degenerative brain disorders like Alzheimer's disease, who may inadvertently leave appliances running and create fire hazards. The system allows caregivers to remotely turn appliances on or off from up to 300 feet away, providing peace of mind and enhanced safety. The assembly is designed to handle 240-volt appliances and includes proper grounding and electrical safety features that comply with the National Electrical Code. Commercial applications include assisted living facilities, home healthcare services, smart home automation systems, and safety equipment for elderly care. The technology could be licensed to appliance manufacturers, home automation companies, or safety equipment providers looking to enhance their product offerings with remote control capabilities.
