Aspects of the present disclosure may relate to a bag having a retractable lock unit that may simultaneously prevent theft of the bag and theft of its contents. The bag may include the retractable lock unit which can be secured to the bag, a zipper system having a pair of zippers, and a locking ring. In some aspects, a user may draw the lock unit from its housing to the pair of zippers and lock the pair of zippers together so as to prevent the bag from being opened. In this way, the bag may provide additional security for the contents while the user has the bag on their person or near themselves. In other aspects, the user may draw the lock unit from its housing around one or more objects before securing it to the locking point and/or a pair of zippers. In this way, the bag may be securely anchored to the one or more objects thus preventing theft of the bag itself as well as preventing theft of the contents.

A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having an aperture includes a lock mechanism having a lock cylinder and a cam member. The lock cylinder is configured to be rotated by a key. The cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder. The cam member has a slot. The security apparatus also includes an engagement mechanism having a first finger, a second finger, and a plunger. The first finger and the second finger are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger and has a cam follower positioned within the slot of the cam member. As the cam member is rotated by the lock cylinder, the plunger pushes the first finger and the second finger apart from each other to engage the portable electronic device.

A novel security tether includes an intermediate flexible substrate, a first loop, and a second loop. The first loop is fixed to a first end of the intermediate flexible substrate and is switchable between a closed position and an open position. The first loop further includes a lock to retain the first loop in the closed position when engaged. The second loop is a fixed, closed loop that is coupled to a second end of the intermediate flexible substrate and is configured to allow the first loop to pass therethrough to create a secondary loop to encircle an anchor object. The first loop can be closed around an object to be secured, thereby securing the object to be secured to the anchor object when the lock is engaged. The security tether is conveniently portable and particularly useful for securing skis to an anchor object.

The present invention concerns a secure sealing device 101 comprising at least a closure element 102 with an electrically conductive path 120, and a locking body 103 comprising an electric circuit with a data carrier and a radiofrequency transceiver with a predetermined working wavelength. Said locking body 103 is configured be locked to at least one free end 102a of said closure element 102 to attach the locking body 103 to an object to be sealed. The electrically conductive path 120 of the closure element 102 has a length which is substantially equal to X or ½.sup.X times half said predetermined working wavelength of the radiofrequency transceiver, thus enhancing the range of the radiofrequency transceiver by inductive coupling.

Anti-theft bicycle locking device, wherein the bicycle has a saddle column (4), a saddle (3) and a rear frame tube (2), the device has a foldable locking loop that can be wrapped around the bicycle and a stationary object, the loop comprises a plurality of 5 loop portions of which each has a predetermined length, a first loop portion is constituted by the saddle column (4) being a hollow tube, and a second loop portion (8, 16, 20) that has an outer diameter smaller than the diameter of the saddle column (4) and has a first end slidably connected to and moving in the interior of the saddle column (4), a closure member (11, 17) in the remote end part of the saddle column (4)10 preventing the removal of the second loop portion (16, 20) from the saddle column (4), a lock (7) is attached to an upper portion of the saddle column (4) close to the saddle (3), and a lock part (9) is attached to a free end of the last portion of the loop, the lock part (9) can be fitted in and engaged by the lock (7), and said loop portions can be pushed to take a compressed state and pulled to form the loop, an in compressed15 state said loop portions except for the saddle column (4) are positioned in the hollow inner space of the saddle column (4) and the rear tube (2), and the loop comprises at least one further loop portion attached to the remote end of the second loop portion (8, 16, 20), and the loop has a minimum length (LL) in fully unfolded state which is at least as long as the combined length of the rear frame tube (LFT) and twice the length20 of the saddle column (LSC), in equation: LL>LFT+2*LSC.

A pin-type anti-theft tag includes a safety pin, a tag body, a tag hole suitable for inserting the safety pin, at least one sensor, and a first lock body and a second lock body located in the tag body. Both the first lock body and the second lock body need to be located in a release position at the same time, so that the safety pin can be successfully removed from the tag body. The first lock body is mounted at an unlocking hole of the tag body, and a spring lock retainer is arranged at a lower portion of the first lock body. The second lock body is mounted below the tag hole of the tag body, and a pin rod of the safety pin is inserted into the second lock body along the tag hole to play a locking role.

A storage device comprises a closable storage unit defining at least one storage space for personal items, and comprises a fastening unit, which is connected with the storage unit and which is configured for a fixation of the storage unit to at least one rod element.

A wheel locking assembly is provided for securing a wheel to a wheel hub of a motor vehicle. That wheel locking assembly includes a locking cylinder and a wheel retainer. The wheel retainer is displaceable by means of the locking cylinder between an unlocked position, allowing removal of the wheel from the wheel hub and a locked position securing the wheel to the wheel hub. A related method for securing a wheel to a wheel hub of a motor vehicle is also disclosed.
