ANTI-THEFT VEHICLE SYSTEM

摘要

An anti-theft vehicle system (10) for a vehicle wheel (12) having a rotation al axis includes at least one inhibitor (24) disposed within the vehicle wheel to selectively engage and disengage the vehicle wheel to resist and allow rotational movement of the vehicle wheel about its rotational axis. The anti-theft vehicle system (10) also includes rotatable structure disposed within the vehicle wheel and cooperating with the at least one inhibitor for moving the at least one inhibitor betwee n an engaged position and a disengaged position with respect to the vehicle wheel. The anti-theft vehicle system further includes a receiver (69) operatively associated with the vehicle wheel to receive a predetermined signal to activate the rotatable structure to move the at least one inhibitor between the engaged position and disengaged position.
