Burglarproof apparatus for internal combustion engine

Claim 2

A burglarproof apparatus for an internal combustion engine characterized in that a case such as a crank case or the like of an internal combustion engine is provided with a lock means such as a cylinder lock or the like operable by a key so that at least one of the movable members of the engine may be locked by the lock means into its inoperable condition, the case is divided into at least two sections, said lock means being mounted on one of the sections and the divisional sections are so arranged that when a lock means is brought into its locked position, they are locked together inseparably by the lock means directly engaging a portion of the other section.

Claim 3

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the case comprises a crank case having a transmission case extending integrally therefrom sideways, and the movable members comprise a crankshaft, an intermediate driving shaft connected to the crankshaft, such constructional components of a transmission mechanism connected to the driving shaft as an input shaft, an output shaft, a transmission gear, a shift fork, a shift drum, a change arm, a shift spindle, a change pedal, a clutch lifter rod or the like.

Claim 4

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 2, wherein the case is divided into two divisional sections and comprise upper and lower half sections, and the lock means is fixed to the upper half section, and a lock shaft extending inwards from the lock means is provided on its front end with a lock arm, and a cooperating lock opening is made in a facing surface of the shift drum, and the lock arm is provided with a second lock arm, and a cooperating claw member is fixed to the lower half section.

Claim 5

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein a lock arm extending inwards from the lock means is positioned above the change arm and is provided with a lock rod arranged to cooperate with a lock opening made in the clutch lifter rod.

Claim 6

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the two divisional sections comprise upper and lower half sections, and the lock means is fixed to the upper half section, and a lock shaft extending downwards from the lock means is provided with a lock pin arranged to cooperate with a lock opening made in a facing surface of the shift drum and also with a gear-teeth shaped member arranged to be meshed with the transmission gear, and a hanger plate arranged to cooperate with the lock shaft is fixed to the lower half section.

Claim 7

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 5, wherein the hanger plate has a claw member protruding upwards along the side surface of the shift drum, and the lock pin is arranged to cooperate also with the claw member.

Claim 8

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the divisional sections comprise an intermediate section, a front cover section and a rear cover section, and the lock means is fixed to the rear cover section, and a lock shaft extending therefrom forwards has a lock arm arranged to cooperate with a lock wheel mounted on the output shaft, and the lock arm is provided with an opening comprising a large diameter region on one side and a small diameter region on the other side, and a lock bolt for fastening the three divisional sections together is provided at its rear end section with a contracted section and is arranged to be in engagement at that section with the foregoing opening.

Claim 9

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the two divisional sections comprise upper and lower half sections, and the lock means is fixed to the lower half section, and a lock arm extending from the lock means is provided with a first projection arranged to cooperate with a claw member provided on the side surface of the shift fork and with a second projection arranged to cooperate with the transmission gear, and the shift fork is pivotally supported on the upper half section.

Claim 10

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein a lock arm arranged to move with the lock means is provided with a gear-teeth shaped member arranged to be in engagement with an ACG gear mounted on the crankshaft.

Claim 11

A burglarproof apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein a lock pin extending from the lock means is arranged to cooperate with a lock opening made in the rear end portion of the change pedal.
