Abstract
A remote starting device intended chiefly for use in cars that utilizes a pulse signal that is generated by either an RF transmitter, a keypad, or a telephone. The pulse signal is transmitted to a rotating drive attached to the subject ignition. When the device receives the pulse signal, the rotating drive rotates to activate the ignition of the car, thereby starting the engine. The remote starting device operates independently of the car's circuitry using only the car's battery, via the cigarette lighter, as a power source. There is no need to modify the car's electrical system to install the device. This greatly simplifies installation of the device and does not jeopardize any applicable warranty on the car.
Claims6
A starting device adapted to be used with key-operated engines comprising:
- a fixing means adapted to secure a housing of said starting device to an ignition means of an engine,
- a rotating drive to rotate a, key of the ignition means,
- device control circuitry to control a motor that drives said rotating drive, said device control circuitry is contained completely within said starting device so that said starting device operates independently of any circuitry of the engine,
- switching means to control operation of said motor, and
- actuating means to generate a triggering signal for said starting device, said triggering signal being received by said circuitry;
- wherein
- a user operates said actuating means to generate said triggering signal, said triggering signal causes said switching means to activate said motor, thereby causing said rotating drive to rotate and turn the key to activate the ignition means and to start the engine.
