The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
Having described my invention, I claim:
1. A tranquilizer bracelet for administering a dose of tranquilizer to a wearer through said wearer’s wrist, comprising:
a. a tranquilizer assembly, positioned proximate said wrist, and containing a tranquilizing agent therein and means for injecting said tranquilizing agent into said wearer;
b. a band, attached to said tranquilizer assembly and configured to encircle said wrist of said wearer;
c. a lock assembly, located within said band, wherein said lock assembly can be unlocked in order to open said band and allow said tranquilizer bracelet to be placed on said wrist, and wherein said lock assembly can be locked in order to prevent said wearer from removing said tranquilizer bracelet; and
d. control means for actuating said means for injecting said tranquilizing agent.
2. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said lock assembly comprises a mechanical lock which can be opened by a separate key.
3. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said lock assembly comprises an electronically actuated lock which can be opened by the use of a magnetic encoder.
4. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said lock assembly comprises an electronically actuated lock which can be opened by the transmission of a numeric code.
5. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said band and said lock assembly include a conductor passing completely around said wrist, so that said control means can sense when said band and said lock assembly encircling said user’s wrist has been opened.
6. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, further comprising a temperature sensor capable of detecting the presence of said wearer’s body heat, so that said control means can sense when said tranquilizer bracelet has been removed from said wearer.
7. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said band further comprises adjustment means allowing said band to be fitted tightly to said wrist, but wherein said adjustment means cannot be adjusted when said lock assembly is locked.
8. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said control means comprises an electronic controller responsive to signals received from an external source.
9. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said control means comprises an electronic controller capable of transmitting signals to an external source.
10. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 1, wherein said means for injecting said tranquilizing agent into said wearer comprises:
a. a hollow injector body, having an open upper end and a closed lower end, containing said tranquilizing agent therein;
b. a piercable seal located in said closed lower end of said injector body;
c. a piston, having an upper side and a lower side, slidably positioned within said hollow injector wherein said lower side is above said tranquilizing agent;
d. a hollow needle, having an upper portion and a lower portion, wherein said upper portion is connected to said lower side of said piston, wherein said upper portion is pierced by a plurality of inlet holes, and wherein said lower portion opens into a single injection hole; and
e. means for applying downward mechanical force to said upper side of said piston so that said piston descends, causing said lower portion of said needle to pierce said piercable seal and protrude downward from said injector body, thereby piercing the skin of said wearer, and causing said tranquilizing agent to flow into said upper portion of said needle through said plurality of inlet holes, downward through said needle, and out of said needle through said injection hole and from thence into said wearer.
11. A tranquilizer bracelet as recited in claim 10, wherein said means for applying downward mechanical force comprises an electrical solenoid positioned above said piston.
