Abstract

The mechanical safety device for blockage of vehicle's pedal is a device with which we wish to prevent theft of a vehicle in the way that we fully embrace a pedal (clutch, brake or accelerator) with the compact frame of the device, thus preventing its function and consequently disabling driving ability of the vehicle. The installed device is designed in such a way that because of its shape it clamps and leans on the body of the pedal with its upper side and to the floor (bottom) of the vehicle with its bottom side, thus preventing its movement in the direction of its operation. The device is composed of two major sets (A1) and (B2). When installing, we put the unlocked device onto the pedal of a vehicle (3), the device sits into the pedal chamber on set (A1), afterwards we twist the set (B2) around set (A1) and lock the pedal in preferred position, thus preventing its function.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 06 December 2010 (06.12.2010)

1. The mechanical anti-theft safety device for blockage of vehicle's pedal composed of set A (1) and set B (2), said safety device fully embracing the pedal (3) and is due to its shape with its lower side clamped into the floor (bottom) (4) of the vehicle, said safety device further comprising a lock (36) being moved into the inner side of the device and with screw (37) tightened to component made from not naturally occurring material (35), thereby being fully embraced by sub-set of set B (12), said safety device further installed onto the pedal in two different ways - from the top, that is, by placing the device onto the pedal, or by putting it on the pedal from the bottom side and twisting the set B (2) around set A (1) and thereby locking it characterized by being composed of tube (13) with cut-out (19) in the shape of pedal (3), round opening for key (20), hole (21) for warning signalling led light (63), holes with threads (22, 23, 24, 25) through which the locking set (16) is fixed with screws and holes with threads (26 and 27) through which the additional safety locking set (17) is fixed with screws, whereby the blocking bolt (14) serves as blockage against twisting of set B (2) around set A (1).

2. Mechanical safety device according to claim 1, characterized by being composed of pedal chamber (5) made from not naturally occurring material and where one can find plate spacers (7), which are fixed with screw (6) to the side of the chamber's inner side and serve for regulating the width of the opening for pedal chamber (3) thus enabling installation of device onto different shapes and sizes of pedals (3) in different types of vehicles.

3. Mechanical safety device according to any of the previous claims, characterized by being composed of locking set (16), which comprises of component made from not naturally occurring material (35) on which one can find a groove (28) for lock (36), hole with thread (29) into which a screw for lock (37) is tightened, holes with threads (30, 31, 32, 33) for individual sets of screws (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 and 45), and centre hole with thread (34) for centre screw (46) and joining device - screw (47), where the sets of screws (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 and 45) serve for the locking set to be permanently fixed to tube (13) of set B's sub-set (12), together functioning as locking set of the device.

4. Mechanical safety device according to any of the previous claims, characterized in that it is comprised of an additional safety locking set (17), which comprises of component (48) made from not naturally occurring material, where one can find a groove (57) for warning signalling led light (63), holes with threads (55 and 56) for individual sets of screws (62, 50, 51, 52), and holes with threads (58 and 59) for screws (53 and 54) with which the lid (18) is fixed to the additional safety locking set (17).

5. Mechanical safety device according to any of the previous claims, characterized by having electronic device of the mechanical protection system, which in case of an attempt of forcible intervention into the device, warns the owner of the motor vehicle, primarily by sending an SMS to his/her mobile phone.
