Definitions
- the present invention relates to a secure box and in particular to a secure box for products such as magnetic media.
- magnetic media such as audio CDs, DVDs, video games, memory cards, referred to below without thereby limiting the scope of the invention, and the like, which are displayed in points of sale are usually protected from theft by inserting them in "secure boxes".
- the most common electronic anti-shoplifting devices are inserted in the secure boxes, for example magneto-acoustic and radio frequency devices, since they cannot be coupled directly to the product.
- a shop assistant opens the theft prevention box with suitable opening means, usually present at the checkout where the customer goes to pay, and gives the product to the customer.
- the emptied boxes with their anti-shoplifting devices are periodically picked up by a shop assistant, taken to a goods warehouse, where they are filled again with any new magnetic support and closed again, and finally returned to the display units for sale by the shop assistants.
- the boxes are standardised, they are all the same for different products and contain the packaged products in such a way that the customer has no access to them.
- the main technical purpose of the present invention is to propose a secure box which is free of the above-mentioned disadvantages.
- the present invention therefore has for an aim to propose a secure box which is strong and effective in protecting its contents.
- the invention also has for an aim to propose a secure box which is easy to use and substantially allows elimination of the waste of time and energy of the personnel whose job is to manage it.
- Another aim is to propose a secure box which lessens the problems deriving from handling the products in points of sale.
- Another aim is to propose a theft prevention box which allows at least one anti-shoplifting device to be effectively coupled to the product.
- the numeral 1 denotes a secure box made in accordance with the present invention.
- the box 1 comprises a hollow body 2 having a housing or packaging zone 3 for a generic product 4 and a product 4 removal zone 5, described in more detail below.
- the hollow body 2 substantially has the shape of a parallelepiped and has a front face 2a and a rear face 2b which are substantially parallel with one another.
- the body 2 also has a pair of lateral faces 2c which are parallel with one another and an upper face 2d and a lower face 2e.
- the body 2 has a main direction D of extension in which the front face 2a and the rear face 2b extend.
- the hollow body 2 substantially consists of a first part 6 and a second part 7, described in more detail below, connected to one another.
- the first and second parts 6, 7 form a first and a second half-shell which, when connected to one another form the hollow body 2.
- the box 1 comprises connecting means 8 for irremovably connecting the first part 6 to the second part 7.
- the connecting means 8 comprise first engagement means 9 connected to the first part 6 of the body 2 and second engagement means 10 connected to the second part 7 of the body 2.
- the first engagement means 9 irremovably engage in the second engagement means 10 when the box 1 is assembled.
- first and second positions are preferably spaced from one another along the main direction D and the guide element 11 can move along the direction D.
- the product 4 can be connected to the guide element 11 and can move with it.
- the guide element 11 preferably comprises a polygonal structure 12 closed at the sides to form a cage, in which the product 4 can be positioned.
- a zone 12a in which a substantially known type of anti-shoplifting device can be installed.
- the box 1 comprises movement means 13 connected to the guide element 11 for moving the latter, and therefore the product 4, between the first and second positions.
- the hollow body 2 has an opening 14 at the removal zone 5 through which the product 4 can be removed from the box 1 when the guide element 11 and therefore the product 4 are in the second operating position.
- the opening 14 is made in the first part 6 of the body 2.
- An element 15 for closing the opening 12 is removably connected to the body 2, in particular to the first part 6, at the opening 14.
- the closing element 15 consists of a plate 16 attached to the body 2 along the edges 17 of the opening 12.
- the plate 16 is preferably made in one piece with the body 2 and is separated from the body by weakening means 18 positioned between the closing element 15 and the hollow body 2 to facilitate removal of the element 15.
- the weakening means 18 preferably comprise a plurality of holes or perforations 19 made all around the closing element 15.
- the body 2 has a window 20 through which the product 4 is visible from outside the body 2.
- the window 20 is preferably made in the second part 7 of the body 2.
- the window 20 is obtained by thinning the thickness of the body 2, since the body is preferably made of a substantially transparent plastic material.
- the material used is resistant to cutting so as to guarantee suitable protection for the product 4.
- the movement means 13 comprise a male-and-female screw coupling between the guide element 11 and the hollow body 2.
- the hollow body 2 has a top portion 21 extending above the upper face 2d of the body.
- the top portion 21 has a through-hole 22 in it which has a threaded inner wall 23.
- the threaded wall 23 is formed by a first half-part 24 connected to the first part 6 of the threaded body 2 and by a second half-part 25 connected to the second part 7 of the body 2.
- the movement means 13 comprise a threaded rod 26 connected to the guide element 11 and engaged in the hole 22 by means of a male-and-female screw coupling with the inner wall 23.
- the connecting means 8 guarantee the correct male-and-female screw coupling between the rod 26 and the inner wall 23 of the hole 22.
- the rod 26 has a substantially disk-shaped end portion 27 at the connection with the guide element 11.
- the guide element 11 has an upper portion 11a that is shaped to engage the end portion 27 of the rod 26 in a freely rotatable manner.
- the rod 26 is free to rotate both relative to the body 2 and to the guide element 11.
- the rod 26 rotates relative to the body 2
- the rod 26 translates relative to the body 2, pulling the guide element 11 and the product 4 connected to it, moving it from the housing zone 3 to the removal zone 5.
- the time needed to bring the product 4 from the zone 3 to the zone 5 or the time needed to remove the product 3 from the body 2, if the movement means 13 are freely usable, depends on the length L of the rod 26.
- the movement means 13 preferably comprise a handle element 28 connected to the rod 26 at the end 29 opposite the portion 27.
- the element 28 has a through-hole 30 which can be used by a user, not illustrated, with a suitable tool, not illustrated, for easier operation of the rod 26.
- the box 1 comprises locking means 31 operating on the guide element 11 movement means 13 to prevent them from being operated.
- the locking means 31 substantially operate at the male-and-female screw coupling between the rod 26 and the hollow body 2, in particular locking the rod 26 to the body 2.
- the locking means 31 comprise engagement means 32 connected to the rod 26 corresponding with engagement means 33 in the body 2 and in particular in the second part 7 of the body.
- the engagement means 32 consist of a pair of tabs 34 extending from the end portion 27 of the rod 26, and in particular from the handle element 28.
- the tabs 34 are "L"-shaped and have a first branch 34a parallel with the direction "D" and a second branch 34b perpendicular to the plane of Figure 18 .
- the engagement means 33 in the body 2 comprise a pair of slots 35 made in the second half-part 25 of the top portion 21 and positioned on opposite sides of the through-hole 22.
- the tabs 34 are inserted, in particular during box 1 assembly, as described below, in the respective slots 35, locking the rod 26 to the hollow body 2.
- the tabs 34 are preferably made in one piece with the handle element 28.
- the weakening means 26 consist of a plurality of holes or perforations 37 between the handle element 28 and the tabs 34.
- the first part 6 comprises a base wall 38, its outer surface forming the rear face 2b of the body 2.
- the inner wall 39 has an opening 40 for the rod 26 to pass through.
- the wall 38 has a profile 41 with a plurality of teeth 42, in particular positioned along the main direction D of extension and on a lower side 43 with reference to Figures 1 and 3 .
- each tooth 42 there are the connecting means 8 and in particular the first engagement means 9.
- the engagement means 9 extend from the base wall 38 and are positioned on it on the outside of the inner wall 39.
- the means 9 comprise a plurality of hooking elements 44 of the disposable type, that is to say, once locked in the respective slots which are described in more detail below, the hooking elements cannot be removed from the slots without forcing and breaking them.
- the hooking elements 44 are positioned in pairs on each tooth 42 to form hooks 45 with two prongs.
- a raised edge 46 substantially surrounds the profile 41, that is to say, it follows the profile, containing the engagement means 9.
- the edge 46 consists of a first and a second portion 46a, positioned on opposite sides relative to the direction D along the larger sides of the wall 38, and of a third portion 46b at the smaller side opposite the top portion 21.
- teeth 42 together with the edge 46 form means 47 for strengthening the base part 6 for the body 2.
- the serrated shape of the lateral faces 2c of the body 2 due to the presence of the teeth 42 and the relative profile 46, hinders any forcing with cutting means of the connecting means 8, since it is more complicated to attempt to cut the hooking elements 44 by running the cutting means along a serrated surface than along a smooth surface.
- first engagement means 9 in the first half-part 24 of the top portion 21 are substantially similar to those positioned along the base wall 38.
- the engagement means 9 comprise a plurality of hooks 45 with two prongs positioned next to the hole 22.
- a raised edge 48 surrounds the hooks 45.
- the second part 7 comprises a base wall 49, its outer surface forming the front face 2a of the body 2.
- An inner wall 54 is positioned lower down, observing Figure 12 in particular, below the window 20 and substantially at a lower side 53 of the base wall 49.
- the wall 49 has a profile 51 with a plurality of teeth 52, in particular positioned along the main direction D of extension and on the lower side 53.
- the engagement means 10 extend from the base wall 49 and are positioned on it on the outside of the lateral walls 50 and below the lower wall 54.
- the means 10 comprise a plurality of slots 55 for the hooks.
- the slots 55 have walls 56 shaped to match the hooking elements 44 so as to allow each hooking element to be inserted and locked in the respective slot 55.
- the part 7 of the hollow body 2 comprises slots 55 for the corresponding hooks 45.
- the end portion 27 of the rod 26 is connected to the upper portion 11a of the guide element 11, shaped to match it, and the thread is positioned in the second half-part 25 of the hole 22.
- the tabs 34 are inserted in the relative slots 35 so that the rod 26 is locked relative to the part 7 with the guide element 11 at the window 20.
- the product 4 for example a memory card, is placed inside the polygonal structure 12 and the electronic anti-shoplifting devices are connected to the part 7 (similarly, since known anti-shoplifting devices usually have adhesive on them, they may be connected to the part 6).
- the first part 6 is connected to the second part 7 and locked to it by means of the hooks 45 which irremovably lock in the respective slots 55.
- the first part 6 comprises, substantially at the top portion 21, shaped profiles 57 which are positioned on the second part 7 at the slots 35 so as to lock the tabs 34 in them.
- the box 1 with the product 4 in it may be placed in the points of sale.
- the user frees the movements means 13 by cutting the tabs 34 at the weakening means 36.
- the user By rotating the rod 26, the user translates the product 4 along the direction D from the housing zone 3 to the removal zone 5 from which, after removing the closing element 15 by cutting along the perforations 19, he can remove the product 4.
- the invention described brings important advantages.
- the secure box allows suitable anti-shoplifting devices to be directly connected to the product.
- the box itself is the product packaging and no further outer structures are required.
- the particular structure of the box means that it takes longer to break into than is usually necessary to force prior art boxes.
- the teeth in which the hooks are made also increase box strength and do not provide a smooth surface that would make it easier to cut the hooks.
- the window at the product allows the customer to "see for himself” what he is about to purchase.
- the product packaged with the box disclosed can be rapidly put on display for sale, being substantially protected.
