[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of emergency call equipment, in particular to an emergency call device for elderly people living alone. Background Art

[0002] Currently, elderly people living alone or in empty nests are faced with the possibility of accidents where they lose the ability to call for help, and their guardians are unable to call the police or seek medical treatment immediately, resulting in the accidental death of the elderly.

[0003] Patent number CN214587207U discloses a composite elderly fall linkage device, which includes a fixed disk, a timer, a recorder, a voice caller, a time display and a display light are fixedly connected to the top of the fixed disk, a functional area is set on the top of the fixed disk, and a wireless signal module, a gyroscope, a data storage module and a GPS module are set in the functional area, a rescue light belt and a connecting plate are fixedly connected to one side of the fixed disk, and a connecting block is fixedly connected to the other side of the fixed disk, and a second groove is provided in the connecting plate. Its beneficial effect is that by setting a gyroscope, when the elderly falls, the gyroscope can detect the elderly fall, and will start the rescue light belt and the voice caller through the microprocessor inside it to call for help, and at the same time, the wireless signal module will send the positioning information to the set contact person for rescue information. The gyroscope can measure angular velocity, determine the rotational movement of the human body, and then determine whether the elderly have fallen. In actual use, when the device is removed for charging, the gyroscope will also detect the angular velocity and send a signal. In this case, it will cause unnecessary calls for help and affect the judgment of the contact person, making the device less practical. At the same time, the device is worn with a lanyard, which is prone to large-scale shaking during the normal movement of the elderly, interfering with monitoring. Utility Model Content
