Summary . The basic idea of this invention is to defend against the thief by affecting a visible alarm device, sensor unit, mounted near a fuel tank by means of various methods such as e.g. to shield a transmitting device's two signals or by selected or otherwise prevent transmitted alarm signals when receivers and / or transmissions are absent. The landing device consists of at least two units where the first unit, the control unit, has electronics for receiving communication from a second unit, the sensor unit, either via wired connection or radio. Said control unit is preferably mounted concealed in a slightly exposed space alternatively in the vehicle's cab or engine compartment and effects alarms, locally and / or remotely, on information about intrusion from the sensor unit or if the sensor unit stops communicating.

Description

TITEL StOldskydd for bransletank med hog sakerhet for paverkan och fOr motmedel. TITLE Anti-theft protection for fuel tanks with high security for impact and for countermeasures.

TEKNISKT OMRADE Stolder av brdnsle som tappas ur fordon av allehanda slag som bilar, lastbilar, entreprenadmaskiner, skogsmaskiner och ur sa kallade farmartankar har existerat lange. TECHNICAL FIELD Boilers of fuel that are discharged from vehicles of all kinds such as cars, trucks, construction machinery, forestry machines and from so-called farm tanks have long existed.

Stoldenia har en tydlig koppling till kostnaden for brdnslet som okat drastiskt under senare dr. Enligt alla prognoser kommer delta aft fortsatta beroende pa aft tillgang till fossila brdnslen är andlig. Stoldenia has a clear connection to the cost of fuel, which has increased drastically in recent years. According to all forecasts, participation will continue to depend on whether access to fossil fuels is spiritual.

Idag salcnas effektiva skydd eller andra anordningar som forhindrar eller fOrsvarar dtkomsten av brdnslet som dr fOrvarat i nanuida fordon eller tankar. Today, effective protection or other devices are sold that prevent or defend the occurrence of the fuel stored there in modern vehicles or tanks.

UPPFINNINGENS BAKGRUND De skydd som finns idag ar lasbara tanldock och insatser aft montera i tankens bransleinlopp ftir aft Pirhindra aft en slang kan stoppas in i tanken och med hjdlp av havertprincipen eller en motordriven pump tomma ur av innehallet i tanken. Det bedoms idag vara det vanligaste tillvagagangssattet och kallas slangning. Manga lattare fordon har konstruerats med bojar och liknade utforande i bransleinloppet som forhindrar istoppning av en slang. Lastbilar saknar oftast den designen eftersom det ofta är eft kort brdnsleror och det är stora volymer av bransle som dessa fordon tankas med och kort tankningstid prioriteras. 2 Det finns en patentansolcan i USA US 2006/0111351 ddr fordonets branslemdtare sadan aft den lannar da brdnslenivan sjunker onaturligt snabbt. En stor nackdel med denna lasning är aft ingenting syns frail utsidan och upptackten gars forst da stolden av bransle ager rum. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The protections available today are lockable tank docks and inserts for mounting in the tank's fuel inlet to prevent a hose from being plugged into the tank and using the oat principle or a motor-driven pump emptied of the contents of the tank. It is today considered to be the most common approach and is called slanging. Many lighter vehicles have been constructed with buoys and similar designs in the industry inlet that prevent clogging of a hose. Trucks often lack that design because it is often after short fuel clays and it is large volumes of fuel that these vehicles are refueled with and short refueling time is a priority. 2 There is a patent application in the USA US 2006/0111351 where the vehicle's fuel burner so that it lands when the fuel level drops unnaturally fast. A major disadvantage of this loading is that nothing is visible from the outside and the discovery is only made when the theft of fuel takes place.

Det finns aven en svenskt patent SE 531 043 C2 "metod fOr Overvakning av fordon" dr positionsljus har inbyggda sensorer och som bildar enheter som reldar signalen framat och bakat langs lastbilen och slapet varvid fordonet blir utrustat med larm i form av ett elektroniskt staket. I patentet framgar aft det är en radiolank mellan positionsljusen, men det framgar inte hur det "elektroniska" staketet uppstar. There is also a Swedish patent SE 531 043 C2 "method for monitoring vehicles" where position lights have built-in sensors and which form units that fire the signal forward and backward along the truck and trailer, whereby the vehicle is equipped with an alarm in the form of an electronic fence. The patent states that there is a radio link between the position lights, but it does not state how the "electronic" fence arises.

Denna uppfinnings grundtanke ar aft: Forsvara fOr tjuven aft oskadliggora en larmanordning som utgors av en enhet, genom an manipulera denna enhet. For an uppna ett sdkrare larm gars larmanordningen uppdelad i tva enheter. Enheten som detekterar intrang (sensorenheten) ar svar an gamma clarfOr aft den bar monteras i anslutning till ett Overvakat omrade, t.ex. omradet narmast tankens pafyllnadshal. Sensorenheten kan komma aft utsattas fOr vald i syfte aft oskadliggara larmet. Grundtanken är aft larmanordningen ska ge larm trots aft den synliga sensorenheten är tillintetgjord. Sensorenheten har kontakt med och sander kontinuerligt information till en andra enhet ingaende i larmanordningen. Denna andra enhet (kontrollenheten) finns pa annan fysisk plats i fordonet. Kontrollenheten kan vara kopplad till fordonets elsystem och da ge lokalt larm och/eller fjdrrlarm. Sensorenheten intill tanken ger i sig sjalv genom ljus- och/eller ljud-signaler information aft den är aktiv. Pa sá sat är det tryggt for 2 3 fOraren aft ktuma kontrollera detta da han lamnar fordonet. Men storsta betydelsen har dessa signaler for den avskrackande effekt som fas, dá tankt fOrOvare ser aft en larmappart ar i funktion. Vid upptackt av intrang i overvakat omrade, kan karaktaren pa namnda ljus och ljud-signaler andras i syfte aft signalera "jag ser dig". Om inte detta är tillrackligt avskrackande kan namnda signaler Oka i intensitet och/eller frekvens och larmsignal ges till kontrollenheten i fordonet. The basic idea of this invention is as follows: Defend against the thief from harming an alarm device consisting of a unit, by manipulating this unit. In order to obtain a more secure alarm, the alarm device is divided into two units. The unit that detects intrusion (the sensor unit) is the answer to the old clarf. Because it should be mounted in connection with a monitored area, e.g. the area closest to the tank's filling hall. The sensor unit may be exposed to selected for the purpose of neutralizing the alarm. The basic idea is that the alarm device should give an alarm even though the visible sensor unit has been destroyed. The sensor unit is in contact with and continuously transmits information to a second unit entering the alarm device. This second unit (control unit) is located in another physical location in the vehicle. The control unit can be connected to the vehicle's electrical system and then give local alarms and / or spring alarms. The sensor unit next to the tank itself provides information when it is active through light and / or sound signals. In this way, it is safe for the driver to check this when he leaves the vehicle. But these signals have the greatest significance for the deterrent effect as a phase, when the thought remains that an alarm party is in operation. When intrusion is detected in a monitored area, the character of the said light and sound signals of others may in order to signal "I see you". If this is not sufficiently deterrent, said signals Oka in intensity and / or frequency and alarm signal can be given to the control unit in the vehicle.

Om larmanordningen bestar av endast en enhet kan motmedel som tystar anlaggningen tolatt utvecklas av initierade personer. Ofta är det ligor som stjal de stora mangdema av drivmedel och det ligger i sakens natur aft motmedel och metoder utvecklas och sprids bland kriminella. If the alarm device consists of only one unit, countermeasures that silence the system can be tolerated by initiated persons. It is often leagues that steal the large amounts of fuel and it is in the nature of things that antidotes and methods are developed and spread among criminals.

Eftersom radioforbindelse ofta anvands kan ett motmedel vara aft genom aft t.ex. skarma den synliga sensorenheten med metallburk altemativt nat, aluminiumfolie eller liknande som tits Over larmanordningen, omojliggora dess kommunikation och/eller lannsandning. Andra tankbara atgarder for aft tysta larmanordningen, är aft med vald sla sonder den, altemativt aft avskilja den fran dess montering invid tanken for aft kasta den i ett platspann med vatten och lock fOr aft tysta den. For aft fOrsvara aft storsandare ska kunna satta larmet ur funktion kan status-signalen som sands fran sensorenhet till kontrollenhet vara kodad. Since radio connection is often used, an antidote can be aft through aft e.g. shield the visible sensor unit with a metal can, alternatively nat, aluminum foil or the like tits Over the alarm device, make its communication and / or land sanding impossible. Other conceivable measures for silencing the alarm device are to select it with the selected sound, alternatively to separate it from its mounting next to the tank and to throw it into a bucket with water and a lid to silence it. In order to defend whether large transmitters should be able to deactivate the alarm, the status signal sent from sensor unit to control unit can be coded.

Det är allmant kant aft tjuvar lar hur man kan manipulera larm for aft det ska omintetgoras %re en stold. FOr aft sakerstalla aft reellt inbrottsforsok är paborjat behOvs flera indikationer under en viss tid. Detta ar fOr aft sakerstalla aft ett reellt inbrott är paborjat och aft minska risken fOr falsklarm som kan uppsta da nagon passerar det overvakade omradet. 3 4 Ovan beslcrivna nackdelar kommer aft elimineras med ett utfOrande som narmare beskrivs i detta dokument. It is a common practice for thieves to know how to manipulate alarms to prevent a theft from being thwarted. In order to secure a real burglary attempt, several indications are needed for a certain period of time. This is to ensure that a real burglary has begun and to reduce the risk of false alarms that may arise when someone passes the monitored area. 3 4 The above-described disadvantages will often be eliminated with an embodiment which is described in more detail in this document.

Beskrivning av hur grundtanken realiseras: Genom aft dela upp en larmanordning i tva enheter, en enhet som irmehaller "hjarnan" benamnd kontrollenhet och som Overvakar en andra enhet, sensorenheten, som innehaller den eller de sensor/er som anvands fir upptackt av intrang i overvakat omrade. Kontrollenheten innehaller enhet for overvakning av sensorenhet, eventuellt en telefonenhet som kommunicerar larm genom uppringning av fOrutbestamda aktOrer. Sensorenheten har kontakt med kontrollenhet, via kablage eller radio och sander hur status for sensorenheten ser ut. Med status avses om sensorenhet är i funktion och/eller om sensorenheten upptackt intrang i sift overvakningsomrade. Description of how the basic idea is realized: By dividing an alarm device into two units, a unit that contains the "brain" called a control unit and that monitors a second unit, the sensor unit, which contains the sensor or sensors used for detection of intrusion in the monitored area. The control unit contains a unit for monitoring the sensor unit, possibly a telephone unit that communicates alarms by calling predetermined actors. The sensor unit is in contact with the control unit, via wiring or radio and transmits what the status of the sensor unit looks like. Status refers to whether the sensor unit is in operation and / or whether the sensor unit has detected an intrusion into the sift monitoring area.

• Genom den ovan beskrivna uppdelningen och overfOrandet av larmsandning till kontrollenhet kommer en vandalisering eller annan paverkan av den synliga sensorenheten irmebara aft den inte kan sanda statusinformation till kontrollenheten. Kontrollenheten tolkar detta som intrang och kan effektuera larm. I fallet aft kontakt finns men intrang registreras kan sensorenheten utlOsa sina ljus och ljudsignaler, men kontrollenheten avvaktar en lamplig tid enligt de logiska villkor som fmns, och som är till for aft undvika falsklarm. Kontrollenhet kan vara sá programmerad aft intrang fran sensorenheten ska paga en viss tid innan det betraktas som bekraftat intrang. I fOrsta larmlaget kan kontrollenheten, om sa ar vat, aktivera fordonets ljus och/eller ljudsignaler. Om 4 inte detta är tillrackligt fiir aft skrammas, fa bort person fran Overvakat omrade, aktiverar kontrollenheten fjarrlarm genom uppringning av fOrvalda nummer. • Due to the division described above and the transfer of alarm sanding to the control unit, a vandalization or other impact of the visible sensor unit becomes apparent because it cannot send status information to the control unit. The control unit interprets this as intrusion and can issue alarms. In the event that contact is present but intrusion is registered, the sensor unit can emit its lights and sound signals, but the control unit waits an appropriate time according to the logical conditions that exist, and which are to avoid false alarms. The control unit can be programmed to prevent intrusion from the sensor unit for a certain period of time before it is considered a confirmed intrusion. In the first alarm layer, the control unit can, if necessary, activate the vehicle's lights and / or sound signals. If 4 is not sufficient to scratch, remove person from the Surveillance area, the control unit activates the remote alarm by dialing the Preset numbers.

Beskrivning av funktion • Sensorenheten ar monterad i narhet till bransletankens pafyllningsrlir. Den har minst en sensor fcir upptackt av intrang i dess Overvalmingsomrade. Den kan antingen vara fOrsedd med batteriforsorjning och har da en radiokontakt med kontrollenheten, altemativt kan den strommatas via ledningar dar ocksa signalema gar. Sensorenheten skickar statusmeddelanden till kontrollenheten toenligt bestamt program/schema. Statusmeddelandet kan irmehalla olika delar. Description of function • The sensor unit is mounted close to the filling tank of the fuel tank. It has at least one sensor fcir detected by intrusion in its Overvalmingsomrade. It can either be equipped with a battery supply and then has a radio contact with the control unit, alternatively it can be powered via wires where the signals also go. The sensor unit sends status messages to the control unit according to the program / schedule. The status message can contain different parts.

En del som kontrollenheten registrerarar är aft sensorenheten fungerar, har ratt identitet och kan sanda information. Annan del i statusmeddelandet är om intrang registreras eller ej. Ytterligare del i meddelandet är en kod som varieras och som fOrstas av kontrollenheten. Detta sakerstaller aft statusmeddelandet kommer fran den sensorenhet som tillhor fordonet och inte fran eft fordon som star intill och har samma larmanordning installerad. En kriminell kan tankas lista ut hur systemet ftmgerar och utveckla en egen elektronikenhet for aft ge falska statusmeddelanden, genom aft koden varieras or detta inte mojligt. One part that the control unit registers is that the sensor unit works, has a steering wheel identity and can send information. Another part of the status message is whether an intrusion is registered or not. An additional part of the message is a code that is varied and understood by the control unit. This statement of the status message comes from the sensor unit belonging to the vehicle and not from the vehicle standing next to it and having the same alarm device installed. A criminal can be tricked into figuring out how the system operates and developing its own electronic device to even give false status messages, through which the code is varied or this is not possible.

Sensorenheten kan vid intrang i dess Overvakningsomrade sjalvstandigt ge lokalt ljus och/eller ljudlarm, for aft pa sa satt skramma den person som gor intrang i overvalmingsomradet. Den kan daremot inte ge fjarrlarm eftersom det sker fran kontrollenhet. In the event of an intrusion into its Surveillance Area, the sensor unit can independently provide local light and / or audible alarms, otherwise it will frighten the person intruding into the Surveillance Area. However, it can not give a remote alarm because it is done from a control unit.

Sensorenheten haller kontakt enligt bestamt monster med kontrollenheten och sander statusmeddelanden. Kontrollenheten avgor enligt fOrutbestamda val nar forstarkt lokalt larm, inkoppling av fordonets ljus och/eller ljudsignaler ska 6 alctiveras och nar fjarrlarm ska aktiveras. Valen kan vara beroende pa hur lange och hur manga intrang som registrerats av sensorenheten. The sensor unit keeps in touch with the control unit according to a specific monster and sends status messages. The control unit decides according to predetermined choices when amplified local alarm, switching on of the vehicle's lights and / or sound signals shall be activated and when remote alarms shall be activated. The choices may depend on how long and how many intrusions are registered by the sensor unit.

Kontrollenheten kan placeras inuti fordonet alternativt pa en skyddad plats i tankens narhet. The control unit can be placed inside the vehicle or in a protected place near the tank.

I enldaste utforande är kontrollenheten forsedd med batterikapacitet fiir bada enheternas stromfOrstirjning och da fmns kabelforbindning mellan kontrollenhet och sensorenhet. Paverkan av denna kabel utlaser larm. I detta enIclaste utforande är det tankt aft agaren till fordonet sjalv enkelt ska kunna gOra installationen Wan verkstadsbesok. In the simplest embodiment, the control unit is provided with battery capacity for both the power supply of the units and then there is a cable connection between the control unit and the sensor unit. The impact of this cable triggers an alarm. In this simplest embodiment, it is intended that the agar of the vehicle itself should be able to easily perform the installation during a workshop visit.

KORT REDOGORELSE FOR UPPFINNINGEN Det centrala med uppfinningen al- en elektronikenhet som är skild ftan en sensorenhet. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The central feature of the invention is an electronics unit separate from a sensor unit.

Elektronikenheten benanuis i det fOljande fOr kontrollenhet (1), som lampligen ar placerad pa ett dolt stalle som kan vara i fordonets hytt, motorrum eller i ett lasbart eller svarupptackt utrymme intill fordonets bransletank. Denna kontrollenhet (1) utgor "hjarnan" i lamianordningen och avgor om fOrstarkt lokalt larm och/eller fiarrlarm ska sandas. The electronics unit is hereinafter referred to as the control unit (1), which is suitably located on a concealed stand which may be in the vehicle's cab, engine compartment or in a readable or answer-detected space adjacent to the vehicle's fuel tank. This control unit (1) forms the "brain" of the lamina device and decides whether an amplified local alarm and / or remote alarm should be sounded.

Kontrollenhetens (1) filmsta uppgift är aft overvaka fwiktionen av sensorenheten (2) . The most important task of the control unit (1) is to monitor the operation of the sensor unit (2).

Skulle sensorenheten (2) utsattas for skadegorelse i syfte aft fOrhindra en upptackt inom dess overvalcningsomrade far kontrollenheten(1) kannedom av detta genom uteblivna statusmeddelanden som sensorenhet (2) normalt sander till kontrollenheten. Kontrollenheten (1) avgor enligt na' gra logiska val om det är ett intrang som ska generera larm och effektuerar dä ett larm. 6 7 Sensorenheten (2) sander enligt visst schema statusmeddelanden till kontrollenheten (1). Statusmeddelandet ror dels om sensorenheten (2) är i funktion, dels om sensorenheten (2) registrerar nagot intrang i dess overvakningsomrade. Dessutom bifogar sensorenheten (2) en kod fOr aft sakerstalla aft det är raft sensorenhet (2) som sander. Should the sensor unit (2) be subjected to damage for the purpose of preventing a discovery within its area of oversight, the control unit (1) becomes aware of this through missing status messages which the sensor unit (2) normally sends to the control unit. The control unit (1) decides according to several logical choices whether it is an intrusion that is to generate an alarm and then executes an alarm. 6 7 The sensor unit (2) sends status messages to the control unit (1) according to a certain schedule. The status message depends on whether the sensor unit (2) is in operation and whether the sensor unit (2) detects any intrusion in its monitoring area. In addition, the sensor unit (2) encloses a code for aft safer stall aft it is raft sensor unit (2) that sands.

Genom detta Virfarande sakerstalls aft sensorenheten (2) är den som tillhor just denna larmanordning och dr i funktion. By means of this procedure, the sensor unit (2) is the one that belongs to this particular alarm device and is in operation.

Om sensorenheten (2) ej kan sanda statusmeddelande enligt aft givet tidsschema innebar delta en indikation pa aft sensorenheten (2) är manipulerad eller defekt, och larm kan sandas av kontrollenhet (1). Kontrollenheten kan pa enldaste sattet vara forbunden med sensorenheten (2) via tradar, dels fOr kommunikation och dels for strOmforsorjning av sensorenheten. Om kommunikationen mellan enheterna istallet utgors av radioforbindelse kommer sensorenheten (2) aft innehalla batterier for sin drift. Kontrollenheten kan antingen vara batteridriven eller vara ansluten till fordonets elsystem. If the sensor unit (2) cannot send a status message according to the given time schedule, it means an indication that the sensor unit (2) is tampered with or defective, and an alarm can be sent by the control unit (1). The control unit can in the only way be connected to the sensor unit (2) via wires, partly for communication and partly for power supply of the sensor unit. If the communication between the units instead consists of a radio connection, the sensor unit (2) will also contain batteries for its operation. The control unit can either be battery-powered or connected to the vehicle's electrical system.

FIGURBESKRIVNING Figur 1 visar hur en kontrollenhet (1) och en sensorenhet (2) kan vara monterade pa ett fordon. DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES Figure 1 shows how a control unit (1) and a sensor unit (2) can be mounted on a vehicle.

Figur 2 visar ett systemschema 7 8 DETALJERAD BESKRIVNING AV UPPFINNINGEN Enligt figur 1 ar kontrollenheten (1) monterad i hytten pa fordonet och har nodvandiga kontrollfunlctioner som aktiveringsbrytare och eventuella lampor for indikering av tillslag eller lag batterispanning. Sensorenheten (2) ar monterad intill bransletanken och dess overvalcningsomrade (3) är schematiskt utmarkt i figur 1.. Figure 2 shows a system diagram 7 8 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION According to Figure 1, the control unit (1) is mounted in the cab of the vehicle and has the necessary control functions such as activation switches and any lights for indicating switch-on or low battery voltage. The sensor unit (2) is mounted next to the fuel tank and its overwelling area (3) is schematically marked in figure 1.

Figur 2. Visar ett schema Over hur lannanordningens vitalaste delar ar kopplade till varandra. Figure 2. Shows a diagram of how the vital parts of the landing device are connected to each other.

Kontrollenheten (1)ar programstyrd och tar emot statusmeddelanden som sensorenheten (2) sander. FOrbindelse (4) symboliserar overforing av statusmeddelande totill kontrollenhet (1) men aven driftstrom till sensorenhet (2) I fallet med radiokontakt enhetema emellan sker datakommunikationen via detta media och om sensorenheten (2) är batteridriven saknas helt galvanisk forbindelse (4)Indian enhetema. The control unit (1) is program-controlled and receives status messages sent by the sensor unit (2). Connection (4) symbolizes transmission of status message to control unit (1) but also operating current to sensor unit (2) In the case of radio contact between the data, the data communication takes place via this media and if the sensor unit (2) is battery powered there is no galvanic connection (4) Indian units.

Radiokonununikation och elektronikdelar ar inte utritad i schemat. Schemat visar de viktigaste ingaende delarna. Kontrollenheten (1) kan ha en telefonenhet fiir uppringning till valda nummer da larm effektueras. Sensorenheten (2) har en sensor (6) med ett overvakningsomrade markerat med (3) i figur 1 och 2.. Sensorenheten (2) har en ljussignalenhet (7) for alt t.ex. kunna blinka svagt alt larmet ar i funktion. Det ar bra for foraren aft se aft larmet är aktiverat dá han larnnar fordonet. Det ska ocksa signalera avskrackande fOr eventuellt stoldfOrsok. Da flagon ror sig i overvakningsomradet kan karaktaren pa ljuset fOrandras fOr aft signalera upptackt. Eventuellt kan detta forstarkas av ljudsignaler fran en ljudalstrare (8). Om intranget fortsatter kan ljus- och ljudsignalema fas alt lamna full styrka for aft skramma inkraktaren och for aft pakalla uppmarksamhet fran omgivningen. Kontrollenheten (1) har da ocksa mottagit denna information genom utsanda statusmeddelanden. Kontrollenheten (1) kan via sin logik faststalla om det ska tolkas som ett akta larm, skilt fran kortvariga stomingar i 8 9 sensorenhetens (2) Overvakningsomrade (3), och kan da ringa upp fOrutvalt/fOrutvalda telefonnummer. Radio communication and electronic components are not drawn in the schedule. The diagram shows the most important parts. The control unit (1) can have a telephone unit for dialing selected numbers when alarms are executed. The sensor unit (2) has a sensor (6) with a monitoring area marked with (3) in Figures 1 and 2. The sensor unit (2) has a light signal unit (7) for everything e.g. be able to flash slightly when the alarm is in operation. It is good for the driver to see that the alarm is activated when he warns the vehicle. It should also signal a deterrent to any attempted theft. As the flag moves in the monitoring area, the character of the light may change to signal detected. This may be amplified by audio signals from an audio generator (8). If the intrusion continues, the light and sound signals can be phased out, leaving full power to frighten the intruder and to attract attention from the surroundings. The control unit (1) has then also received this information through sent status messages. The control unit (1) can determine via its logic whether it should be interpreted as an alert alarm, separate from short-term stuttering in the sensor unit's (2) Monitoring area (3), and can then dial preselected / preselected telephone numbers.
