Patent attributes
Foldable vehicle cover (armed/unarmed) covers vehicle's front, mid-section, and rear, longitudinally, laterally and vertically. Longitudinal staves in separate cover segments permit lateral collapse of cover with draw cords in lateral cover channels (one cord-end attached at closed channel end and the cord extending outboard from open channel end). The unarmed cover has four operating modes: covered, uncovered, laterally compressed and folded (front and rear segments folded atop mid-sectional segment). An alarmed cover includes either pouches on inboard side of vertical cover portions or module attachment systems on the inboard side. Proximity alarm module is pouch mounted or attached and is removably coupled to vehicle vertical element via an electromagnetic/mechanical attachment sub-system. A proximity sensor generates ALARM sensor not proximate vehicle element. A transmitter generates RF ALARM and a software App on user's causes ALARM annunciation.
