BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the Invention
The instant invention is one of those sorts of devices serving to prevent inadvertent activation of off/on switching units.
2. Relevant Art
The art disclosed in the herewith submitted Art Informational Statement does not anticipate the instant invention.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 1. A Brief Description of the InventionThe invention consists of a quadrangular convexly shaped shielding component. There is a hole near the top edge of the shielding component. A key-ring component fits through the hole and is in turn also affixed to a remote car starter unit. Affixed near a bottom edge of the shielding component is a first piece of hook and fastener material, the length of which is sufficient to enable it to be wrapped about the bottom side of the car starter unit and affixable to near a lowermost edge of the first piece of hook and fastener material is a second piece of hook and fastener material. The second piece of hook and fastener material is not as long as the first. This second piece of hook and fastener material is affixed to the back side of the remote car starter unit. When the owner of such a remote car starter unit wishes to shield the front side thereof so as to prevent inadvertent activation of the starter, the owner merely folds the first piece of hook and fastener material around the bottom side of the starter unit to be affixed to the second piece of hook and fastener material earlier removed from the first piece and then permanently affixed to the backside of the starter unit.
2. Objects of the InventionThe invention serves to simply, conveniently, inexpensively and most dependably militate against any inadvertent actuation of a car starter button or a car door locking or unlocking button or a car trunk locking or unlocking button located on the front side of a remote car starter unit while the unit might, for example, be in the car owner's pocket.
