  • Patent number: 7707861
    Abstract: The brake bolt and the lock cylinder of the vehicle lock are mounted in a part of the vehicle for preventing the rotation of a wheel of the vehicle in a locked state. The brake bolt and lock cylinder are mounted in a brake bolt bore and a lock bore, respectively, located in the swing arm, the chain guard, or a lock body mounted over the axle-retaining nut. The vehicle lock engages a ventilation hole on the rotor, a ventilation hole on the sprocket, the teeth of the sprocket, or a hole on the hub to prevent rotation of the wheel in the locked state. Preferably, the lock cylinder is mounted to the vehicle in both the locked state and the unlocked state, and in the unlocked state the brake bolt is removed from the brake bolt bore for operation of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 7467530
    Abstract: The vehicle brake-rotor lock includes a mounting bracket, and a lock mechanism, including at least one deadbolt shaft, which is preferably made of steel, stainless steel, titanium, tungsten, boron, or any other dense metal, used to mechanically immobilize the vehicle. The bracket is preferably permanently attached to the protected vehicle. In a locked state, the deadbolt shaft extends through a cross-drilled ventilation hole or slot on the brake rotor of the vehicle, thereby preventing rotation of the brake rotor and the wheel. The lock mechanism preferably prevents any forward or rearward movement of the vehicle when engaged to allow for a heightened security for any vehicle using a disc braking system. In one embodiment, the lock mechanism is mechanically actuated. In another embodiment, the lock mechanism is electronically actuated.

  • Publication number: 20070022792
    Abstract: The vehicle brake-rotor lock includes a mounting bracket, and a lock mechanism, including at least one deadbolt shaft used to mechanically immobilize the vehicle. The bracket is preferably permanently attached to the protected vehicle. In a preferred embodiment, a groove around the brake bolt and a security pin increase the security of the lock by inhibiting drilling attacks. In another preferred embodiment, the deadbolt is spring-loaded. In yet another embodiment, the vehicle lock is designed for one-handed operation for both locking and unlocking the vehicle.
