    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an access door for a hazard detector includes a release member that releasably secures the access door in a closed position over a battery compartment of the hazard detector. The release member allows the access door to be pivoted open and closed relative to the battery compartment and hazard detector. The access door also includes a first hinge member and a second hinge member. The first hinge member enables the access door to pivot along a first pivot path and by a first pivot amount and the second hinge member enables the access door to pivot along a second pivot path and by a second pivot amount. A cumulative total of the first pivot amount and the second pivot amount is substantially greater than either pivot amount alone.

    Abstract: Various arrangements for using multiple wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation to detect smoke by a smoke detector are present. Multiple modes of the smoke detector may be used in which a first wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is emitted into a smoke chamber while a second electromagnetic radiation emitter is disabled, a period of time is waited, and a second wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is emitted into the smoke chamber while the first emitter is disabled. Depending on the mode of the smoke detector, the period of wait time may be varied.

    Abstract: An electrical connector for a hazard detector includes a socket body that includes four lateral walls, a rear wall, a catch feature and a catch support; the lateral walls adjoin one another and the rear wall, continuously and airtightly along edges thereof. The catch support adjoins two of the lateral walls along edges of the catch support to define a catch cavity and a plug cavity on opposing sides of the catch support. A first side of the rear wall faces the plug cavity and a second side bounds a rear surface of the socket body. The catch feature couples with the catch support. Electrical pins pass through the rear wall of the socket body such that one end of each of the pins is within the plug cavity, and an opposing end of each of the pins extends away from the rear surface of the socket body.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a hazard detector may include a housing having a back plate and a front casing coupled therewith to define an interior space within which various components are contained. The components may include an alarm device and a hazard sensor that is configured to detect a potentially hazardous condition to trigger the alarm device. A cover plate may be coupled with the housing and may face an occupant of a room in which the hazard detector is positioned. The cover plate may include a relatively large population of relatively small openings that are positioned, configured, and dimensioned so that internal components are substantially hidden from view of the occupant while air is allowed to substantially freely flow through the cover plate. A collective area of the openings may be at least 30 % of the total area of the cover plate.
