Patent ID: 6914516

Claim:
A remote lock control apparatus for a small vehicle, comprising: a generator capable of charging a battery; a kick starting mechanism capable of driving said generator; and a control module capable of receiving power from the generator driven by successive kick start operations of the kick starting mechanism, and during the successive kick start operations, the control module performs a first step of collating a received ID code received from a portable transmitter with a predetermined ID code in the control module and generating an coincidence signal when the received and the predetermined ID codes match, a second step of unlocking a locking mechanism disposed on the vehicle, a third step of sending a signal placing an ignition placing in an on state, the control module including: ID code collation means operable in response to supply of power from said power supply circuit for executing collation of the received ID code received by said receiver and a predetermined ID code and executing operation control of said main relay driving means and said actuator driving means in response to a result of the collation and outputting of a collation coincidence signal when the ID codes coincide with each other; and collation result holding means connected to said power supply circuit and said ID code collation means and capable of outputting a collation coincidence holding signal in response to outputting of the collation coincidence signal of said ID code collation means so as to continue for a preset time after stopping of the outputting of the collation coincidence signal of said ID code collation means caused by stopping of the power supply from said power supply circuit.
