Audible auto turn signal

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIGURES Turning now descriptively to the drawings, in which similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several views, FIG.
1 illustrates an audible automatic turn signal device 10 of the type having a battery 12, indicator lamps 14R, 14L, a turn indicator switch device 16, an automotive turn indicator flasher unit 18 that has a pair of contacts 20 intermittently opened and closed during a turn indication operation of the switch device 16 to intermittently flash the indicator lamps 14 on and off during the operation of the flasher unit 18 and an audible turn indicator 22 that has a loud speaker 24 in series connection to a capacitor 26.
The audible turn indicator 22 has a pair of terminals 28 connected to the contacts 20 in the flasher unit 18, the battery 12 and the indicator lamps 14 via the switch device 16.
During each intermittent opening and closing of the contacts 20 in the flasher unit 18 the consequent charge and discharge of the capacitor 26 will result in audible clicks in the loud speaker 24.
FIG.
2A shows the switch device 16 in a first position to operate the indicator lamps 14R on the right side of the motor vehicle.
FIG.
2B shows the switch device in a second position to operate the indicator lamps 14L on the left side of the motor vehicle.
The invention is best seen schematically in FIG.
3 and consists of a plug 30 that has a pair of blades 32.
The blades are electrically connected to the terminals 28 of the audible turn indicator 22.
A socket 34 is built into the flasher unit 18 and has a pair of slots 36 electrically connected to the contacts 20 in the flasher unit.
When the blades 32 of the plug 30 are pushed into the slots 36 of the socket 34 an electrical connection is quickly made between the audible turn indicator 22 and the flasher unit 18.
FIG.
4 shows a plug 30a that has adjustable blades 32a for making better contact with the slots 36 in the socket 34 in the flasher unit 18.
Each of the blades 32a is an elongated conductive rack member 38 extending through the plug 30a
