Theft prevention apparatus for leisure vehicle

A theft prevention apparatus for a leisure vehicle comprising:

• a portable device configured to transmit a specified user identification code;
• a lock device including:
• a lock bar configured to lock or unlock a handle of the leisure vehicle by a protruded operation or a retracted operation thereof;
• a mechanical key configured to cause the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar;
• and
• a key hole into which the mechanical key is inserted;
• a lock operation stopper member configured to enable or disable the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar caused by the mechanical key;
• a pull-out operation restricting mechanism configured to enable or disable a pull-out operation to pull out the mechanical key from the key hole;
• a lock operation restricting actuator configured to operate to cause the lock operation stopper member to be moved from a position where the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar caused by the mechanical key are disabled to a position where the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar are enabled;
• a controller including:
• a memory configured to store a specified user identification code;
• a receiver configured to receive the specified user identification code transmitted from the portable device;
• and
• a processing unit configured to determine whether or not the received specified user identification code matches the specified user identification code stored in the memory, and to control the lock operation restricting actuator to cause the lock operation stopper member to be moved from the position where the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar are disabled to the position where the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar are enabled, when it is determined that the received specified user identification code matches the specified user identification code stored in the memory,
• and to control the lock operation restricting actuator to cause the lock operation stopper member to be moved to the position where the protruded operation and the retracted operation of the lock bar are disabled and to control the pull-out operation restricting mechanism to cause the lock operation stopper member to be moved to the position where the pull-out operation of the mechanical key is disabled, when it is determined that the received specified user identification code does not match the specified user identification code stored in the memory.

A theft prevention apparatus for a leisure vehicle comprising:

• a portable device configured to transmit a specified user identification code;
• a lock device including:
• a mechanical key configured to be operated to selectively turn ON or turn OFF a main electric power supply control circuit;
• and
• a key hole into which the mechanical key is inserted;
• a pull-out operation stopper member configured to enable or disable a pull-out operation to pull out the mechanical key from the key hole;
• a pull-out operation restricting actuator configured to operate to cause the pull-out operation stopper member to be moved from a position where the pull-out operation of the mechanical key is disabled to a position where the pull-out operation of the mechanical key is enabled;
• and
• a controller including:
• a memory configured to store a user identification code;
• a receiver configured to receive the user identification code transmitted from the portable device;
• and
• a processing unit configured to determine whether or not the received user identification code matches the user identification code stored in the memory, to control the pull-out operation restricting actuator to cause the pull-out operation stopper member to be moved to the position where the pull-out operation of the mechanical key is enabled when it is determined that the received user identification code matches the user identification code stored in the memory, and to control the pull-out operation restricting actuator to cause the pull-out operation stopper member to be moved to the position where the pull-out operation of the mechanical key is disabled when it is determined that the received user identification code does not match the user identification code stored in the memory.
