Safety/security method and device for two-wheeled vehicles and similar
First Claim
1. A method for ensuring the security of a two-wheeled vehicle, said method comprising the following steps:
- detecting a plurality of parameters of the vehicle including engine running/stopped, tilt, parked/moving, presence of the driver on the vehicle, and geographical localization,determining according to a logic for processing the detected parameters, and the state of at least one enabling/disabling command of a system, a system state taken from the following system states;
a theft surveillance state, when the engine is stopped,an accident surveillance state, when the engine is running,a pre-alarm state caused by detecting a movement, a vibration, a shock or a power supply cut, while the vehicle was in the theft surveillance state, or subsequently to the starting of the vehicle,a disabled surveillance state (surveillance off) subsequently to a command for disabling the system,detecting, depending on the state of the system and on the detected parameters, one of the following system states;
the theft alarm state, when subsequently to the pre-alarm state, the system has detected a sensitive parameter which is repeated and/or maintained during a predetermined period of time,the accident alarm state when subsequently to the accident surveillance state, the system detects an extended loss of verticality,when passing to one of the “
alarm”
states, elaborating a message comprising data for identifying the vehicle, its position, and data corresponding to the state of the system as well as telephonically transmitting this message to a remotely located caller or to a surveillance center.

Abstract
The invention relates to a safety/security method and device for two-wheeled vehicles and similar. The inventive device comprises a processor which is connected to a geographic positioning centre (CL) and to a communication unit (UT) with a cellular telephone system which can communicate with a party. The aforementioned processor is also connected to a start/stop sensor (M/A), a movement sensor (AC) and an inclinometer (CV) and to means of identifying the vehicle and/or the driver. The processor is programmed so as to: centralise and store the data originating from the above-mentioned sensors; select a device state from numerous pre-determined states including one or more sensitive states; and, when a sensitive state has been selected, compose and transmit a message containing data relating to said state, vehicle and/or driver identification data and geographic positioning data.
