Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention relates to a safety device for sliding windows of motorhomes, in particular motorhomes of the brand Niesmann + Bischoff, preferably of the model series iSmove, Arto and Flair, to prevent unauthorized opening of the sliding windows from the outside.
[0002] With known sliding windows, there is a risk that they can be pried open or pushed open from the outside, especially in the driver's cab area.
[0003] The locking device consists of a locking bar that can be inserted into an existing window track of the sliding window without tools. The locking bar is designed and positioned in such a way that it mechanically blocks the sliding path of the window, thereby preventing it from being pushed or pried open from the outside.
[0004] The locking device requires no screws or permanent modifications to the vehicle. It is designed in two parts for simplified installation in the window track. Separate locking brackets are provided for the left and right sides of the window.
[0005] The locking bracket is positively locked in the window track and can only be released by targeted manual removal from the window track.
