The present invention relates to a security locking system of the type comprising a cylinder (3) provided with a set of pistons (8) that are able to be positioned by elastic means on the impression formed in the edge (7b, 7c) of a control key (7) perpendicularly to the direction in which said key (7) is introduced into the cylinder (3), these pistons (8) being able to take up two positions, namely a position retracted into the cylinder (3) when the key (7) is introduced into the latter and an extended position when the key (7) is withdrawn there from. This system is characterized in that:—the cylinder is made up of a locking block (3) of parallelepipedal shape that is able to be received in a receiving block (5),—it comprises locking means which are activated when the locking block (3) is introduced into the receiving block (5).

A security apparatus comprises a support assembly and a keyboard retainer. The support assembly comprises a first retaining portion, a second retaining portion pivotally coupled to the first retaining portion, and a lock assembly defining a locked state and an unlocked state. The keyboard retainer comprises at least one base member pivotally coupled to the first and second retaining portions and included a top surface extending along a top surface plane, and an opposing bottom surface. The at least one base member comprises one or more securing members extending from the bottom surface of the first base, and one or more retainers extending above the top surface plane of the first and each retainer comprising a retaining member extending away from the first base.

A detachable electronic device and a dock thereof are provided. The detachable electronic device includes a first machine body, a second machine body, and a dock. The dock includes a pair of fixing brackets, a pair of rotating axles, a latch module disposed between the rotating axles, a lock base, and a linkage kit. The latch module can be arranged in a locked state or an unlocked state to lock or release the second machine body. The lock base is slidably disposed on one of the fixing brackets. The linkage kit has one end fixed to the latch module, and the other another end slidably sleeved onto the lock base. When an anti-theft lock is locked to the lock base, the lock base restricts a displacement of the linkage kit, and the linkage kit restricts the latch module to the locked state.

A security apparatus secures a laptop, and particularly a convertible laptop, to a mounting surface. The security apparatus comprises a housing assembly, and a first arm assembly and a second arm assembly extending from and retractable into the housing assembly. A first end assembly and second end assembly are mounted to the first arm assembly, and a second end assembly. Each arm assembly secures a first side and a second side of a lower body portion of the laptop. A trapping member is positioned in the housing assembly to lock the arm assemblies. A locking rod has a first end extending outside the support housing and a second end extending into the housing assembly and into engagement with the trapping member, the locking rod configured to move the trapping member into engagement with the first and second arm assemblies.

A stepless adjustable electronic device locking apparatus has a fixing member, a stage adjusting mechanism, a driving mechanism, an unlocking member, and a lock. The driving mechanism selectively unfolds the fixing member to engage in an anti-theft hole based on a current one of working stages to which the stage adjusting mechanism adjusts. The unlocking member is able to fold the fixing member. By separating adjustment of the working stages and movement of the fixing member, the movements of the fixing member do not interfere in the working stages. Therefore, the unlocking member can be applied to the driving mechanism to unlock. The fixing member can be folded to disengage from the anti-theft hole through the unlocking member without being reversely rotated and adjusting the working stages, so as to unlocking quickly.

A locking method for an electronic device includes steps of: (a) adjusting working stages of an electronic device locking apparatus according to a size of an anti-theft hole of an electronic device; (b) inserting a fixing member into the anti-theft hole; and (c) switching a lock to a locking state, such that the electronic device locking apparatus and the electronic device are inseparable. Movements of the working stages and the fixing member are separate. The working stages can be adjusted in advance, and then the fixing member is inserted into and is unfolded to engage in the anti-theft hole. When unlocking, just folding the fixing member and then the fixing member can leave the anti-theft hole. The fixing member can be used to engage in the anti-theft hole of the same size, directly without changing the working stage, which is convenient to use.

A security kit is provided that enables retrofitting a mobile electronic device with a theft preventing security slot. The slot allows locking therein a lock head, a cable of which is attachable to an immovable object. The security kit includes a security bracket having an attachment plate with a screw hole formed therein, and having a thickened portion having a security slot formed therein. A fork-shaped screw extracting tool is used to extract from the mobile electronic device one of the body screws and then re-use it to attach the security bracket to the housing of the electronic device.

An apparatus for physically securing a tablet and a keyboard to a tabletop of a display table or to another display surface is described herein. The apparatus includes a main body, a left arm and a right arm that are extendable and retractable relative to the main body and a left side brace and a right side brace attached respectively to the left arm and the right arm, and configured to be secured to a left side and a right side, respectively, of the tablet and the keyboard. The apparatus further includes a back support extending from the top of the main body with a top arm extending from the back support. The top arm is extendable and retractable relative to the back support along a plane that intersects the top of the main body at an oblique angle.

Systems disclosed herein are directed to a display stand unit for a retail environment. The display stand unit includes a base having an interior and a display stand. The display stand includes a stem that connects to and extends upwardly from the base and a receiving surface that is suspended above and spaced away from the base by the stem. The receiving surface is configured to releasably hold an electronic device above and spaced away from the base. The display stand unit further includes a security cable that extends out from the base. The security cable is configured to attach to the electronic device to movably secure the electronic device to the base. The display stand unit further includes a retractor disposed within the interior of the base and connected to the security cable. The retractor automatically retracts the security cable.

An apparatus can comprise a cover coupleable to a computing device and a latch mechanism. An example latch mechanism is actuatable via insertion of a portion of a shaft through an aperture of the latch mechanism to cause the cover to be disengaged from the computing device.
