Catalytic converter theft protection arrangement |
| 摘要 |
A catalytic converter theft protection arrangement includes a metal cage rigidly attached to an underside of a vehicle such that the cage surrounds a catalytic converter of the vehicle. An electronic tamper-detecting device is disposed within the cage and transmits an alarm signal in response to detecting motion around the catalytic converter and/or vibration of the cage. A remote controller selectively activates and deactivates the electronic tamper-detecting device in response to actuation of the remote controller by a user. |

1. A catalytic converter theft protection arrangement, comprising:
a metal cage configured to be rigidly attached to an underside of a vehicle such that the cage surrounds a catalytic converter of the vehicle, the metal cage including a first flat surface; an electronic tamper-detecting device including a housing having a second flat surface, the electronic tamper-detecting device being disposed within the cage and configured to transmit an alarm signal in response to detecting at least one of:
motion around the catalytic converter; andvibration of the cage; and a remote controller configured to selectively activate and deactivate the electronic tamper-detecting device in response to actuation of the remote controller by a user, wherein the second flat surface of the housing is in physical contact with the first flat surface of the metal cage such that the metal cage is configured to carry heat away from the housing. |
