6. Grave AlarmGrave Alarm
Bordering on the bizarre, the U.S. patents
described here reflect a concern on the part
of some that persons might be buried
prematurely.
It was feared that the vital signs of persons
in a coma or “suspended animation” would
not be detected.
As embalming became more widespread,
this concern became a moot point, except,
perhaps, to the most gullible.

8. The PatentThe Patent
In 1893, a patent was granted to Adalbert
Kwiatkowski, of Germany, for a coffin
signal using a long spring loaded flag
within a tube extending to the surface
and a complex linkage with a bridle
resting on the forehead of the corpse and
ropes around the hands.

10. What is it aboutWhat is it about
The invention relates to improvements in
Grave Alarms whereby the persons who are
prematurely buried before life is extinct can
sound an alarm thus notifying the cemetery
officials of the fact
The object of the invention is not only to
provide means of sounding alarm but also to
provide improved construction whereby
fresh air is supplied to person prematurely
buried so that life can be sustained until help
arrives.

11. WorkingWorking
When a coffin is lowered into a grave, and before the
latter is filled in.
 the tube 2 is connected with the coffin, and the
lower end of pipe 5 inserted within the flange 4, and
encircling side tube.
 The tube 8 is then connected with tubes 2 by means
of the bayonet joint and the lower end of pipe 16,
engages over the upper end of pipe 5
 The dirt or soil is then filled in as usual
 It will be seen that the cord 15 extends down into
the coffin, and in case the supposed corpse should
have been in a trance and not dead, when regaining
consciousness can grasp the cord and sound an alarm

13. Working - contdWorking - contd
 At the same time fresh air will be admitted to the coffin
through the tubes, whereby life may be sustained until
help comes.
 After a sufficient length of time has elapsed, so that it
will be positively certain that death has taken place, the
housing and the tube 6 can be disconnected from tube
2.
 And hence the apparatus can be readily used again and
again

14. ConclusionConclusion
Though it is one of strange inventions it
shows one human feeling the most which is
“hope”
