It is offered to install mobile phone system in the coffin for incoming calls and voice messages receiving, as shown in Fig.1 and Fig.2, where 1 - coffin, 2 - waterproof multifilament cable, 3 - antenna, 4 - phone power unit (battery), 5 - solar battery as power supply of the entire system, 6 - coffin connection socket, 7 - mobile phone, 8 - landside service socket, 9 - replaceable power supply unit, 10 - grave-mound.

Description

INSTALLATION OF MOBILE PHONE IN THE COFFIN

Disclosure of the invention

The invention refers to the particular technical solution, which related to the mobile phone connection and voice message sending and receiving in a coffin.

It is often happens that family members cannot be present at the funeral ceremony about the grave or get to know about funerals later. It is proposed, with a view to help family members easier come to grips with feeling of guilt owing to the event and call or„speak" with the deceased, to equip coffin (1) with receiving aerial (3), mounted in the coffin cellular phone (7) for receiving voice messages (Fig. 2) and phone power unit (4), which is connected with landside power supply system by means or socket (6) and waterproof multifilament cable (2). The mentioned landside power supply system is made as replaceable power supply unit (9) or as solar generator (5), at that the mentioned landside power supply system is connected to the multifilament cable (2) through landside service socket (8).

Substance of the invention

Proposed additional equipment of the coffin is illustrated in the Fig. 1 and 2., where: 1 - coffin, 2 - waterproof multifilament cable, 3 - receiving aerial, 4 - disposable power unit (battery), 5 - solar generator, 6 - waterproof and preferably low-observable for by passers socket, for cable (2) connection with coffin (1), 7 - cellular phone, 8 - landside service socket, 9 - replaceable power supply unit provided for feeding as the ground communication receiving device, as cellular phone (7), 10 - grave-mound.

Receiving equipment (cellular phone) (7) is easily mountable in the coffin not far from the deceased head, as it is shown in the Fig. 2. SIM card with deceased phone number or any other new number should be inserted in the cellular phone (7) before funerals. The proposed technical solution intends several alternatives of cellular phone (7) electric supply: the first one ensure power supply from disposable phone battery (4), which is installed inside the coffin; the other one uses solar generator (5) or replaceable power supply unit (9), placed landside near grave-mound (10), for continuous phone battery (4) recharge or energy supply of the ground communication receiving device. As the cellular phone - the end element of the mentioned communication signal receiving device - is placed inside the coffin (1) and intended only for call receiving and nor other additional function, the mentioned disposable battery (4) can operate quite a long time.

Multifilament, waterproof and strong connecting cable (2) of diameter preferably not exceeding 1.5 mm, and available in various colours is drawn out through a small boring of the coffin wall, provided with undistinguished connecting socket (6) with waterproof insulation. Output cable (2) of sufficient length should be connected to socket (6) before coffin embedding in the grave. The landside part of cable (2) is connected to the service socket (8), which is also waterproof and placed near the grave-mound (10). Service socket (8) is intended not only for cable (2) connecting, but also for connecting solar generator (5), receiving aerial (3) and replaceable power supply unit (9), as it is shown in the Fig. 1.

Mobile phone (7) can be modified at discretion of family members only for call receiving, as well as can be provided with voice receiver (microphone). The invention can also be applied using Skype technology.

Invention practice

Family members are able, being anywhere, to make a call and send voice or text message to the number of deceased mobile phone mounted in the coffin. The phone is activated by sending SMS with particular code to its number in certain time after funerals. Family members at their discretion can disclose this code or number to interested ambit of acquaintances. Intelligible response signal or voice message, confirming connection, can be heard calling on phone's number after the phone activation. It is possible to make a call to phone's (7) number at any time from whatever part of the world. The phone operating limits depend on the family members' decision and can vary from a week to several years, or can set at defined periods. The shortest time period is from one to two weeks, depending on intensity of use, if illustrated in Fig. 2 solution with disposable battery (4) integrated in phone (7) is realised. Replaceable power supply unit (9), which can be changed or charged, should be connected to service socket (8) or, if mentioned period is too short and it is necessary to use the proposed system during longer period, the phone should be connected with solar generator (5). Operation time of the phone until complete discharge of power supply unit (9) is quite long, because the phone has only receiving function. As it was just noted, solar generator, connecting to service socket (8), ensure charging as power supply unit (9), as disposable battery (4), which, in this case, do not need any additional charging. It is advisably that phone (7) send warning signal before charge of power supply unit (9) will depletes.

Probably, to carry the invention to commercial use it would be necessary to modify phone (7) and socket (8) design to enhance subterranean performance of proposed additional equipment of the coffin.

Claims

1. Coffin (1), which is provided with the following additional equipment: receiving aerial (3), mobile phone (7) installed in the coffin (Fig. 2) for voice message receiving, and phone power supply unit (4), which through the connection socket (6) and multifilament waterproof cable (2) connected with landside power supply system.

2. Landside phone power supply system installed in the coffin (1) according to the Claim 1 and made as replaceable power supply unit (9), or as solar energy collector with solar-voltaic array (5), at that mentioned landside power supply unit is connected with multifilament cable (2) by landside service socket (8).

3. Grave-mound (10) arrangement according to the Fig. 2, where coffin (1) is equipped as per Claims 1 or 2, allowing family members sending voice messages to the deceased still much time after funerals.
