Abstract

A device is provided for the unlocking of car doors despite the existence of anti-theft devices such as an inner shell. The device is bent in such a way so as to circumvent the inner shell placed in car doors by manufacturers which prevent the use of other door unlocking devices. The device also is bent in such a way so as to unlock a car door despite the existence of anti-theft devices such as plastic coating on the locking bar that prevents other earlier devices from being used. The device is a continuous metallic rod bent at precise angles and at precise lengths so as to take advantage of the spaces in between the window and the outer shell, the hole within the inner shell, and the distance between the hole and the inner shell and the locking device. The device is constructed very efficiently and cheaply.

Claims

1. A convenient device for unlocking car doors having vertical sliding locks with certain anti-theft mechanisms comprising:

(a) an elongated first section following a handle section;

(b) a second section following said elongated first section forming an obtuse angle of substantially 165 degrees with a radius of approximately 0.250 inches, said second section defining a base axis;

(c) a third section following said second section forming approximately a 90 degree angle with a radius of substantially 0.125 inches;

(d) a fourth section following said third section forming substantially a 115 degree angle with a radius of approximately 0.250 inches away from said axis formed by said second section at substantially a 65 degree angle;

(e) a fifth section following said fourth section forming a 115 degree angle with a radius of approximately 0.250 inches, said fifth section being substantially perpendicularly in relation to said axis formed by said second section;

(f) a tip tapered at approximately 15 degree angle following said fifth section;

(g) a ring placed on said elongated first section 6.25 inches above beginning of said second section;

(h) said elongated first section is at least 6.25 inches long;

(i) said second section is substantially 3.750 inches long;

(j) said third section is approximately 2.625 inches long;

(k) said fourth section is substantially 2.125 inches long; and

(l) said fifth section and said tip are approximately 0.375 inches long.
