An example security device includes a tag and a sled. The tag may include a security element, a receiving recess, a locking channel adjacent to the receiving recess, and a slug biased towards a sled facing surface of the tag. The sled may include a base having a tab extending therefrom, an adhesive applied to a product facing surface of the base for applying the sled to a product, and a cavity in the base having an opening on a tag facing surface of the base.

A security device for mounting over the neck of a bottle having an exterior lip has outer cap structure including an annular housing portion (16) for location about the neck of a bottle and an end cap portion (18) at one end of the annular housing portion. A claw member (14) is slidably mounted to the outer cap structure for movement in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the annular housing portion between operative and inoperative positions. A latch mechanism (60) releasably secures the claw member in the operative position. The claw member has a plurality of resiliently deformable elongate claws (52a, 52b) for engagement with the neck of a bottle to which the device is mounted when the claw member is in the operative position. The claw member comprises at least two sets of claws (52a, 52b) of different lengths. The latch mechanism (60) may be a magnetically-releasable latch enabling the device to be removed using a magnetic key. The device may incorporate a RF or RFID tag.

An anti-theft and safety mechanism for bottles is described, comprising a case, first locking and unlocking means, and second locking and unlocking means adapted to be actuated, when locking, through a manual action, after the mechanism has been inserted onto the neck of a bottle and, when unlocking, as consequence of the unlocking action exerted on the first locking and unlocking means, allowing the removal of the mechanism from the neck of the bottle, wherein the first locking and unlocking means comprise a hook which is adapted to fasten a collar of the bottle, and the second locking and unlocking means comprise a first half-circular element adapted to be moved in contact with the neck of the bottle preventing the access to the tip of the hook.

An antitheft device attachable to an article, formed by two parts, one part comprises a means for remote interaction with a terminal detecting passage of the device, a hinge to allow movement between a protection position, and a release position, one of the parts having, at the end opposite to the movable hinge, a needle able to move in a direction perpendicular to the mid-plane of the device, the other part comprising a housing for receiving the needle, the housing comprising lock configured to allow the release of the needle with an opener, wherein the first part has three retractable cages enabling the needle to move between a retracted position where the tip of the needle does not project beyond the internal surface of the first part, and a deployed position in which the needle is engaged in the complementary housing when the device is in the closed position.

A display fixture for supporting a sample product comprises a platform segment, a tether assembly, and a coupling plate. The platform segment defines a top surface, a bottom surface, and an aperture extending from the top surface to the bottom surface. The tether assembly includes a tether housing positioned below the bottom surface of the platform segment and a tether extending from the tether housing and through the aperture of the platform segment. The tether is selectively retractable from the tether housing and is biased toward maintenance inside the tether housing. The coupling plate defines a slot extending from an outer perimeter thereof into an interior thereof. The slot terminates at an enlarged end opposite the outer perimeter. The tether extends through the slot and terminates in a ball end. The ball end nests in the enlarged end of the slot to couple the tether to the coupling plate.

A security tag holder including a flexible attachment member and a holder body is provided. The holder body defines a central cavity for holding a security tag. The holder body includes a pair of angled wings on opposed ends of the holder body. The angled wings are oriented to cooperate with the non-flat outer periphery of a product. The angled wings extend rearward of a back of the holder body. The holder body includes a rear opening in the back thereof for extension of a push button therethrough. A security tag assembly including the security tag is provided.

A housing comprised of substantially arced configured first and second pieces pivotally coupled with one another to form an enclosure that defines a substantially circular-cylindrical hole for encompassing and securing an article therein. The housing includes a magnetic switch for resetting an internal alarm system of the EAS alarm tag to OFF, an interlocking sensor switch and an auxiliary sensor switch for arming the EAS alarm tag. When both the interlock sensor switch and the auxiliary sensor switch are closed, the internal alarm system of the EAS alarm tag is armed and set to ON, and if any one of the interlocking sensor switch and the auxiliary sensor switch is tampered, an alarm (external the EAS alarm tag and or) of the EAS alarm tag is triggered.

An anti-theft device comprises a notched strap having a free end and an end rigidly connected to a block, which locks the notched surface of the strap in the closed position when the free end is inserted into an insertion slot provided in the locking block. The anti-theft device further comprises theft detection means.

Aspects of the invention are directed towards a system and a method for locking an item. The item is locked in a housing comprising cavity for receiving the item. The housing comprises an electronic circuit for receiving a command from a user terminal to lock or unlock an item in the cavity of the housing. A motor resides in the housing which is actuated by the electronic circuit based on the command received from the user terminal. The housing further comprises a housing lock to lock or unlock the item on actuation of the motor.

The invention relates to a bottle lock for a bottle, comprising a housing part designed to enclose an upper portion of the bottle neck of the bottle to be secured, including the bottle cap of the bottle to be secured, a plurality of claws arranged in the housing part, which are designed and intended to engage non-releasably with the upper portion of the bottle neck when the bottle lock is in a secured state and to allow the bottle lock to be released and removed away from the upper portion of the bottle neck in the released state of the bottle lock, and to a locking mechanism intended to assume an unlocked state in which the bottle lock can be transferred from the secured state to the released state, and a locked state in which the bottle lock cannot be transferred from the secured state to the released state.
