发明名称 Exhaust system protection device
摘要 An exhaust system protection device is described that can be installed on the exhaust pipe of a vehicle. The device is designed to protect valuable components of the exhaust system from unauthorized removal. The device has a first locking collar that is configured to be removably positioned around the exhaust pipe of the vehicle. The first locking collar is positioned adjacent to the first end of the component that is to be protected. A second locking collar is removably positioned around the exhaust pipe adjacent the second end of the component that is to be protected. A plurality of elongated members extends from the first locking collar to the second locking collar. The plurality of elongated members is positioned around the component in a manner whereby the component cannot be removed from the exhaust system between the plurality of elongated members. A security member can extend from the first locking collar around a chassis or frame member of a vehicle and be secured to the second locking collar to prevent the protection device and component from being separated from the vehicle. The locking collars and security member are all constructed from materials that are difficult to cut or alter and thereby makes it difficult for a thief to remove the protection device from the exhaust system of the vehicle.
