Abstract
An anti-theft device for a vehicle has a vehicle transmitting device for emitting a signal. The device has a vehicle receiving device for receiving an identification transmitter signal. The device also has a vehicle control device which is configured to control a security device on the basis of the reception of an identification transmitter signal. In this case, the vehicle control device is also configured to deactivate the vehicle transmitting device if it has detected the capture of a user signal and the reception of at least one identification transmitter signal within a predetermined interval of time. This makes it possible to achieve a higher degree of security of the anti-theft device in a manner set by the user himself.
Claims17
An anti-theft device for a vehicle, comprising:
- a vehicle transmitting device configured to emit a vehicle signal to a mobile identification transmitter;
- a vehicle receiving device configured to receive an identification transmitter signal;
- a vehicle control device configured to control a security device based on a reception of an identification transmitter signal,
- wherein the vehicle control device is also configured to deactivate the vehicle transmitting device if at least two identification transmitter signals have been received by the vehicle receiving device within a predetermined interval of time, and
- wherein one of the at least two identification transmitter signals is a triggered signal preceded by an emission of a vehicle signal and a second of the at least two identification transmitter signals is a direct signal not preceded by emission of a vehicle signal.
An anti-theft arrangement for a vehicle, comprising:
- a vehicle transmitting device configured to emit a vehicle signal to a mobile identification transmitter;
- a vehicle receiving device configured to receive an identification transmitter signal;
- a vehicle capture device configured to capture a user signal as a trigger signal configured to trigger an emission of the vehicle signal by the vehicle transmitting device;
- a vehicle control device which is configured to control a security device based on a reception of at least one identification transmitter signal,
- wherein the vehicle control device is also configured to deactivate at least one of the vehicle transmitting device and the vehicle capture device if the vehicle control device detected a capture of a user signal by the vehicle capture device and the reception of at least one identification transmitter signal by the vehicle receiving device within a first predetermined interval of time;
- wherein the vehicle control device deactivates the vehicle transmitting device if there is at least a predetermined second interval of time between the capture of the user signal by the vehicle capture device and a reception of the at least one identification transmitter signal;
- and
- wherein the vehicle control device is also configured to deactivate the vehicle transmitting device if at least two identification transmitter signals have been received by the vehicle receiving device within a third predetermined interval of time, and wherein one of the at least two identification transmitter signals is a triggered signal preceded by an emission of a vehicle signal and a second of the at least two identification transmitter signals is a direct signal not preceded by emission of a vehicle signal.
