JPH0616163A - Burglar alarm device for bicycle - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a burglar alarm device for a bicycle devised in its integral construction, which can prevent burglar in the stage of a thief's coming into contact with a bicycle or the like by detecting the change of the rest state caused by the force applied to a parked bicycle from the outside to give warning and inform the state and can prevent the warning device itself from being broken. CONSTITUTION:The shock, vibration and change of inclination of a car body applied on a rest bicycle or the like from the outside are detected by a detecting means to be announced to the surroundings by voice synthesis and an alarm means and be transmitted to an external portable receiver by radio waves to operate an external warning means, whereby voice synthesis and alarm are operated in response to slight shock and viration and the change of inclination of a car body when a thief's coming into contact with the bicycle so as to prevent a thief from coming into contact with the bicycle. Furthermore, as the device is totally stored in an integrated receptacle, the respective parts such as a detecting part, a wire as a transmission means, voice synthesis and an alarm part and a power supply part can be independently kept from being broken.

う問題があった。2. Description of the Related Art Theft of bicycles is caused by parking on the streets, sloppy management of the owners, inadequate parking facilities, etc.
In addition, the target of the theft is not the metal goods in the house or the goods in the show window, but the crime scene is often on the street or outdoors, and the victims of theft crimes such as bicycles and the neglect of society in general continue to broaden the scope of criminals. Locking the body of the vehicle to a utility pole or the like by restricting the rotation of the tire or the function of the steering wheel with a lock or a chain is still effective as a method of protecting a bicycle or the like from the current theft, and the present invention denies those techniques. Not a thing. However, today's conventional locks devised on the basis of social morality include young people, because the neglect and the change in social consciousness that leads to theft crimes such as bicycles lead to the crime of criminals. For criminals who are liable to commit a crime, the effect of stopping the crime is diminishing and it is the subject of sabotage. As a technique for providing a direct means for raising the guilty feeling of the offender in response to such a change in consciousness, an alarm device for detecting the rotation of a tire, an alarm combined with a lock, and the like have been devised in the prior art. , The device is connected to the detection part and the alarm part by an electric wire, and it is easy to disable the alarm function by breaking a part of the device or cutting the electric wire, and prevent directly from the contact stage with a bicycle etc. There was a problem that I could not do it.

A voice alarm is generated by alerting the surroundings of the work of moving or breaking the existing anti-theft lock by voice synthesis or an alarm to prevent it from the stage of contact with the bicycle. For the destructive work that disables the function, this device is hermetically housed inside the integrated container to protect it from the destructive work, and the means to stop the alarm can be turned off by switching the key or returning the bicycle etc. to the original stationary state. It is to provide a device limited to such means.

できる。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A key is inserted into the lid of an integrated container of a theft alarm device for a bicycle or the like devised based on the present invention, and when the key is rotated two steps to the right, the lid opens and the container inside can be taken out.
The apparatus body is housed in this internal container, and a bracket for attaching the external container to a part of the vehicle body of a bicycle and a tightening screw are arranged at the bottom of the external container from which the internal container has been taken out. First, remove the bracket from the outer container and pass it through the handle pipe of a bicycle or the like, and then attach it to the outer container. Then, tighten the bracket with the tightening screw to fix the handle pipe and the outer container. Next, put the battery in the power supply section of the inner container and store it in the outer container. When the lid of the outer container is closed, turn the key one step to the left. At this stage, the power is off and the lid of the outer container is locked. Next, move the adjusting device arranged on the bracket holding part of the external container to set the stationary initial state and fix it with screws. Next, turn the key one step further to the left to turn on the power, and when the pendulum sensor is not horizontal in the initial stationary state, voice synthesis and alarms are activated. In this case, the key is turned one step to the right again to turn off the power, and the rest initial state is set again. When the setting is completed and the key is turned to the left and removed, the device is in operation. Similarly, when using an external portable receiver by radio waves, the signals of shock, vibration, and change in the tilt of the car body that are externally applied to a stationary bicycle etc. detected by the pendulum sensor are used as signals to output voice synthesis and alarms. It is transmitted by radio waves and activates voice synthesis and alarm means of the external portable receiver. Until the operation of this alarm is completed, the next output signal is processed by, for example, a dead zone even if the sensor detects it, and after the operation is completed, the next output signal again activates the voice synthesis or the alarm means.
When the external portable receiver activates voice synthesis or alarm means, the power is turned off after checking the operation, returning to the parking place, and after checking the bicycle etc., the power is turned on again. The pendulum sensor used in this example uses a ceramic for the pendulum portion in order to prevent the movement of the pendulum from being restricted by a magnet that is stronger than the outside. In addition, the key inlet and the speaker part have a raindrop waterproof structure, and the speaker is installed so that it faces the slit installed on the peripheral surface of the external container from the inside of the container. The voice synthesizer and alarm of this device were activated even when a person who parked sideways moved a bicycle or the like, which had a small parking space, but for example, the expression "This bicycle is currently parked." It is possible to avoid giving an unpleasant feeling to a well-meaning third party by using such as. In addition, since all the above means and power supply are hermetically housed inside the integrated container, the device itself is also housed as a unit in the internal container, and it has a simple structure that is protected by the shell of an external container that is easy to repair and replace. There are few failures and it is possible to prevent damage from the outside. Further, by attaching an adjusting device capable of setting the stationary initial state to the device body, it is possible to readjust the deviation of the mounting position of the device during long-term use. This alarm system returns the bicycle etc. to a stationary state and the horizontal state of the pendulum sensor is maintained, and when the pendulum is stationary, voice synthesis and alarm stop.
It is possible to prevent the alarm from continuing to sound even after a parking clerk without a key moves a bicycle or the like in the parking lot.

る。As described above, according to the present invention, the impact / vibration / change in the inclination of the vehicle body detected by the detecting means is notified to the surroundings by voice synthesis or alarm means, and the external portable receiver is also notified by radio waves. Since it transmits and activates the voice synthesis and alarm means of the external portable receiver, the voice synthesis and alarm are activated due to slight shock and vibration when contacting the bicycle for theft, and changes in the tilt of the car body, and the thief's bicycle Can prevent contact with. Further, since this device is all housed inside the integrated container, it is possible to protect each part such as the detecting part, the electric wire as the transmitting means, the voice synthesizing / alarming part and the power supply part from being individually destroyed from the outside. As a result, since the alarm function can be maintained, it is possible to prevent theft at the contact stage with the bicycle or the like until the lock is destroyed.
