Description

Anti-theft Module {BURGLARPROOF MODULE}

The present invention relates to a device for preventing the loss of the product.

Mobile electronics such as laptops, navigation, digital cameras, or even electronic devices that are not easily removable, such as car audio, can easily be stolen by the user's carelessness and theft is used by theft theft. In many cases, it works without problems and even a / s is possible.

With the recent development of IT-related technologies, the number of electronic products that are portable or additionally installed is becoming smaller and more versatile, and it is becoming more expensive. Therefore, the risk of theft is increasing and the countermeasures are urgently needed.

In order to overcome this disadvantage, the Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0402797 suggests an anti-theft device using GPS. When the electrically connected pad is disconnected, a motion detection signal is output and the GPS module transmits location information. The location information is generated based on the signal so that the location can be confirmed during theft. However, there is a disadvantage that it is ineffective because the high cost of constructing a GPS module and a module for generating / receiving location information are inevitable. In addition, in the case of the non-receiving area of the GPS signal is impossible to track, even if it is in the receiving area, it is inefficient compared to the cost because it is difficult to collect the stolen goods by tracking it in the building, vehicle.

Korean Patent Application No. 10-2005-0063479 uses an infrared port to measure the separation distance from surrounding objects in real time to detect the movement of the notebook and to alert the receiver of the owner of the notebook to prevent theft.

However, these technologies cannot be used for devices such as navigation without an infrared port, and power consumption is great for devices with limited power supply such as notebooks.

Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0398987 has a hook on the rubber adsorption plate to enable simple manufacturing and low cost, so that users can hang portable goods on the hook and insert the anti-theft lock into the lock hook. To lock it. However, this can reduce the aesthetics by limiting the use of only portable items and in the case of products that emphasize design, the original design is modified.

An object of the present invention is to provide an anti-theft module for an electronic product that is easy to move as to be devised to overcome the above disadvantages.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an anti-theft module, comprising: a receiving unit for receiving a signal input wirelessly from the outside;

A first memory unit which stores a code consisting of pre-stored text;

A control unit for comparing the code received from the receiving unit with the code stored in the memory unit and transmitting a power off signal when the codes are different from each other;

The electronic device may include a power cut-off unit which cuts off power of the electronic product to which the anti-theft module is connected according to the power cut-off signal transmitted from the controller.

In addition, the second memory unit for storing the pre-stored code;

The transmitter may further include a transmitter configured as a transmitter for transmitting a code stored in the second memory unit to the receiver.

The transmitter may further include a code generator for generating a code using a random number generated by generating a random number.

 The first memory unit may include a rewritable memory to store a code first received from the receiving unit and not to be updated thereafter.

By the anti-theft module as described above, only the person who has the transmitter can operate to achieve the anti-theft effect, and also to help the marketing by inducing product registration.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a block diagram of an anti-theft module according to the present invention.

The anti-theft module according to the present invention is largely divided into a transmitter and a receiver, and the transmitter transmits a separate encryption code which is preset, and the receiver receives the encryption code and compares it with a preset encryption code. Only operate this product if it matches the code.

To this end, the transmitter and receiver are divided into separate devices. The transmitter continuously transmits the encryption code stored in the memory and includes a power supply for stable transmission.

The receiver uses the power of the electronics together and operates together when the electronics are turned on. It checks whether the received encryption code from the sender can be received when the electronics are turned on. If the electronic device is turned off, and if there is a received encryption code, the received encryption code is compared with the preset stored code.If it does not match, turn off the power and turn on the power only if it matches. .

However, if you store the encryption code in each of the receiver and the transmitter in the first place, the product having the same encryption code must always be handled in a bundle, which is more expensive in storage and transportation. In order to solve this problem, when the power is first turned on after opening, the product may store and store a password code transmitted from a nearby sender, and then operate the product only when the same password code is received thereafter.

To this end, the receiving unit uses a memory such as EPROM that can be recorded but the stored contents do not flow even when the power is cut off, and it is provided with a notification means such as an LED indicating that the encryption code received from the transmitting unit has not yet been stored. Do not allow anyone other than the purchaser of the product to operate first.

In addition, the sender is to include a random number generator to generate a code code to include a display consisting of an LED light to indicate that the random number generator was not previously operated at the time of the first operation in the transmitter and the random number generator When the operation generates the encryption code, the LED may be turned off so that a person other than the purchaser of the legitimate product may not operate the transmitter in advance. For this purpose, the transmitter may also include a memory capable of writing / erasing.

Including a random number generator or LEDs does not increase the size of the product or increase the manufacturing cost, but to simplify configuration, the encryption code is stored in the memory added to the receiver and transmitter in advance and compared. It is possible to generate random numbers, but not to generate a multi-digit code, but to generate a very simple one-digit number and a character to receive it at the receiver first, and then code the letter / number with a KEY code and send it. After receiving at the receiving unit can be decrypted using the KEY to compare the encryption code. In this case, security can be further enhanced.

The communication means of the receiver and the transmitter may be any one of RF and infrared communication.

In order to simplify the configuration, the present invention implements unidirectional communication by dividing the receiving unit and the transmitting unit instead of the bidirectional communication. In the case of bidirectional communication, the structure is complicated and the manufacturing cost increases because the receiver and the transmitting unit must be provided. It can be implemented by itself.

The transmitter according to the present invention can be diversified by applying key ring, necklace, and other accessory designs. The transmitter can be implemented in such a small form.The receiver is not only electronic products used in vehicles such as navigation and car audio, but also MP3, PMP, etc. It may be implemented in connection with the power supply. In addition, the transmitter itself may satisfy the desire to show off at the same time as accessories accessories.

When installed in car audio or navigation, the transmitter is made in the form of a key ring so that it can be carried with the car key and the audio is activated only when the transmitter sends a signal. In particular, since the car audio / navigation is operated only when the power is turned on with the car key, the car key and the transmitter can be used without any inconvenience. If the receiving range of the signal from the transmitter is about 2m to about 20m, there is no problem in daily use.

Even if the audio / navigation is stolen, theft is less likely to be turned on and theft cannot be used without disassembly.

Even if it is disassembled, it is difficult to disassemble and reassemble the circuit, and even if it is disassembled after assembly, some of the original functions of the product do not work normally. Therefore, it is expected to be effective in preventing the purchase and sale of the stolen goods. can do. This also has the effect of preventing the sale of stolen goods.

 Residual power indicators or LEDs can tell the transmitter when to replace the power supply, so you can prevent it from suddenly becoming unusable.

In addition, the transmitter can be implemented in a fixed form without being implemented as a portable unit. In the case of a fixed transmitter, it can be manufactured in various formats such as a plug-in type and a card-grafted type.

In case of plug type, it is used in home or office, and even if several frequency ranges are used in single household, there is no possibility of confusion because the code sent from the transmitter can be set to infinity.

Alternatively, the customer can specify a fixed number, or the first specified number can also be recognized by other electronics, allowing multiple products to operate with a single sender. In order to assign a fixed number, an interface for data transmission with an external device can be installed in the sender, and the customer can specify a fixed number directly, such as a password, through the interface. Because of this, even after a / s, it is possible to determine whether a match is made by comparing the stored fixed number with the sender to determine whether it is a genuine / non-theft product. Therefore, in case of stolen goods, a / s itself may not be used, so there is an advantage to prevent theft attempt in advance. If there is an external interface, the fixed number file is encrypted so that it cannot be opened arbitrarily. In addition, the fixed number file can be used at a / s time by registering the product in the customer center.

In addition, stolen goods may be returned to the owner by registration. This product registration makes it easy to pay a new transmitter when the transmitter is lost and can help collect various information on the current use of the product, the life of the product, etc. with the existing product.

In particular, the present invention is because the product registration of the transmitter can play a big role in the occurrence of theft, theft, so that customers can naturally induce registration.

In addition, it is possible to collect comprehensive information on the gender, age, residential area, etc. of the consumer at the time of registration of the customer can be used as the primary data for analyzing consumer consumption patterns.

Basically, it can be used for all electronic products, and the main installation products can be carried on all the products which are easy to carry and are portable or can be reinstalled or replaced after installation. In case of long-term leave of fear of loss, theft can be prevented by removing only the code transmitter from home and business and keeping it safe. In order to be able to drive multiple products, it is possible to increase the output of the transmitter so that the usable range of the transmitter can be more than 50 meters and up to about 2 km, and more power is needed to drive multiple products. You can get a stable power supply.

Such fixed transmitters can be used for a variety of products, such as expensive large TVs, expensive audio, photocopiers, expensive home electronics, expensive office equipment, and workplace machinery.

The power cut-off unit may be configured as a simple on-off circuit to receive the release signal from the control unit to turn on the power.

The memory unit may include a rewritable memory to store a code initially received from the receiver, and the code may not be changed again without a special password of the manufacturer at a / s.

In addition, when an attempt to turn on the power while receiving a signal transmitted from an originator that does not receive a signal transmitted from the original transmitter is continued, such an attempt is constant when a display device such as an LCD window is provided. If it continues more than once, a warning signal can be sent.
