  • Patent number: 10850385
    Abstract: An anti-theft device for use particularly on large vehicles such as trailers, Recreational Vehicles (RV's), and movable tiny houses that require extended storage when not in use. The main body of the device is comprised of a substantially right angled triangle-shaped structure constructed of a heavy metal plate having a broad middle portion and a pair of identical L-shaped pivotally mounted metal plates forming the feet on either side of the broad middle portion of the device. A pair of reinforcement metal bars are welded to the top and bottom of the main body of the device to provide lateral re-enforcement of the main body to hold the weight of a heavy vehicle in storage. The vehicle is lifted up with a jack, the wheels removed and the device is secured to the axle of the vehicle and effectively holds up the vehicle after the jack is removed.
