Anti-theft device for a vehicle and method for activating the anti-theft device
First Claim
1. An anti-theft device for a vehicle with tyre wheels, comprising:
- an immobilization device;
at least one detection control unit; and
at least one sensor;
wherein the immobilization device activates an anti-theft procedure, wherein the at least one detection control unit is connected to the immobilization device, wherein the at least one detection control unit verifies an alarm condition, wherein the at least one sensor is associated with one or more of the tyre wheels;
wherein the at least one sensor detects movement of the associated one or more tyre wheels, wherein the at least one sensor detects inflation pressure of the associated one or more tyre wheels, and wherein the at least one sensor communicates to the at least one detection control unit if the at least one sensor detects variation in inflation pressure of the associated one or more tyre wheels corresponding to raising the associated one or more tyre wheels from contact with the ground.

Abstract
An anti-theft device for a vehicle with tyre wheels includes an immobilization device, at least one detection control unit, and at least one sensor. The immobilization device activates an anti-theft procedure. The at least one detection control unit is connected to the immobilization device and verifies an alarm condition. The at least one sensor is associated with one or more of the tyre wheels, communicates with the at least one detection control unit, detects movement of one or more of the tyre wheels, and detects inflation pressure of one or more of the tyre wheels. A method for activating an anti-theft device for a vehicle with tyre wheels includes detecting an alarm condition from at least one of the tyre wheels, receiving the detected condition, and activating an anti-theft procedure.
