<p>The present invention relates to a security device (10) for securing to a pedal vehicle to prevent the vehicle being pedalled. The device has: receiving means (12) comprising: a structure (12) having a through-hole means (16,18) for receiving a part of a frame and a pedal crank arm of the vehicle, or another movable part of a pedal vehicle, therethrough; and a link-structure (20, 110, 112) configured to link parts (14, 102, 104, 106, 108) of the structure having the through-hole means, wherein the device comprises parts that are linearly movable (110, 112) and the receiving means has an open configuration in which the frame part and a part of said crank can be placed in said through-hole means, and a closed configuration in which a frame part and crank arm are held in the through-hole means against relative movement therebetween; and securing means for releasably securing the receiving means in the closed configuration. The linearly movable parts may be linearly movable in a direction substantially parallel to the link-structure (20) and may comprise a first opening (16) for receiving a portion of a pedal crank arm of a vehicle therein and a second opening (18) for receiving a portion of a frame of a vehicle therein. The openings may be configured on opposing sides of the receiving means.</p> |
