Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a multi-function detaching device for magnetic anti-theft mechanisms.
  • the main magnetic anti-theft mechanisms currently marketed are composed, in particular, but not in a limiting way, of anti-theft cases adapted to contain inside them and to protect objects such as, but not limited to, compact discs, DVDs, musicassettes, videocassettes and the like, or of elongated anti-theft elements for eye-glasses, or of elements to be attached to clothes and the like.
  • Document US-A-5.956.81 is related to a universal detaching device, which, however, as can be seen from its drawings, allows opening only cases of the type adapted to contain CDs, DVDs, videocassettes and the like, through a common bench-type detaching device accessible to everyone.
  • Detaching devices are also known that allow opening a plurality (practically all types of anti-theft devices that can be found nowadays on the market) of different types of magnetic anti-theft mechanisms with a single practical arrangement, with small sizes and composed of very few parts, which allows highly reducing their cost and making their application easy even in small spaces.
  • Such multi-function detaching devices are further equipped with means that prevent the undesired access to detaching elements contained therein.
  • these detaching devices are preferably of the portable type, namely they can be removed from their supporting base, commonly placed on a shop counter, and can be transported by a user to their place of use.
  • EP-A-0 564 864 discloses a detaching device according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • Object of the present invention is solving the above prior art problems, by providing a multi-function detaching device that can be detached from its resting and protecting base, generally placed on a shop counter, but cannot be definitively separated therefrom, stolen or used very far away from the base itself, and therefore from the payment counter of the shop.
  • the multi-function detaching device 1 for magnetic anti-theft mechanisms of the invention substantially comprises:
  • the improved detaching device 1 of the present invention further comprises connecting means 72, 74, 76, 78, 80 for performing an operating connection between the supporting body 2 and the supporting base 2A; such connecting means 72, 74, 76, 78, 80 are adapted to allow the body 2 to operate within a certain operating distance range from its supporting base 2A and are adapted to provide an anti-theft alarm warning if they are tampered with in order to allow detaching the supporting body 2 from the supporting base 2A.
  • the detaching device 1 removes the body 2 and perform all necessary detachments within a certain range of action from the supporting base 2A which usually remains fixed onto the payment counter, but it will not be allowed to move too far away from such base 2A, to prevent a fraudulent use of the detaching device 1 itself.
  • such connecting means 72, 74, 76, 78, 80. are composed of at least one wire 72 secured at one end to the supporting base 2A, into which it penetrates through a hole 78, through a securing element 80 and on the other end to an elastic member 74 operatively housed and secured to a recess 76 of the supporting body 2.
  • the elastic member 74 (usually composed of a plane spring wound around and pre-loaded inside the recess 76 of the supporting body 2), after having been pulled following the unwinding of the wire 72 from the body 2, in order to perform the detachment through the body 2, once the pulling force from a user is lacking, allows re-winding the wire 72 inside the recess 76 when the elastic member 74 is taken back to its rest position inside the body 2.
  • the detaching device 1 is also equipped with an alarm circuit (not shown) connected to the wire 72: such alarm circuit is adapted to trigger the issue of a sound and/or visual alarm in case of cutting the wire 72, thorugh a known arrangement for the skilled people in this particular field.
  • the means for moving are composed of a chute-shaped support on which a pushing member, actuated by a spring and having a side with a complementary shape to the support one, is adapted to slide and push the first magnetic detaching element 3 upwards in order to realise a final operating position that is at 90° with respect to the detaching device 1 plane.
  • the first magnetic detaching element 3 is of the moving type and is adapted to assume a first, unmovable operating position parallel to the detaching device 1 plane (in the Figures the horizontal position) and a second movable operating position parallel to the detaching device 1 plane: the first magnetic detaching element 3, when it is in the second movable operating position, is adapted to be pushed upwards with respect to the detaching device 1 plane (in the Figures the vertical positions).
  • the supporting base 2A is further equipped with locking means 46 adapted to secure the supporting body 2 to the supporting base 2A in its two, resting and operating positions.
  • an authorised operator must, by unlocking the locking means 46, free the supporting body 2 from the supporting base 2A, then remove the supporting body 2 ( Fig. 8 ), rotate it by 180° ( Fig. 4 - 7 ), place it again in the supporting base 2A, this time in its operating position, and then lock it again through the locking means 46.
  • such locking means 46 are composed of a key (not shown) and a lock 46.
  • the first and the second magnetic detaching elements 3, 5 are placed in a respectively coaxial position, in order to detach a magnetic anti-theft mechanism equipped with locking members both of the lamellar spring type, and of the cylindrical pin-spring type, and of the round type, like those used for protecting clothes.
  • the second magnetic detaching element 5 is used, of the super-magnet type, namely with an attraction force on the order of 9000 Gauss.
  • the first magnetic detaching element 3 is preferably composed of two parallelepiped elongated bars 18, 20 placed mutually side by side.
  • the detaching device 1 of the invention further comprises aligning menas 22, 23 that cooperate with the first magnetic detaching element 3 in order to align the area of the magnetic anti-theft mechanism to be subjected to detachment with the first magnetic detaching element 3.
  • the aligning means 22, 23 are composed of at least two elongated projections adapted to engage corresponding holes obtained in an anti-theft device for bottles.
  • other aligning means (not shown) could probably be employed, of the elongated or extended type for the whole length of the first magnetic detaching element 3.
  • a suitable housing 70 is provided, obtained in the supporting base 2A.
  • the supporting base 2A In its most commonly used position, the supporting base 2A is equipped with at least one through-hole 30 adapted to allow securing the supporting base 2A itself to a surface that must be unmovably equipped with the multi-function detaching device 1, such as for example a shop counter.
  • the device 1 When instead it is desired to use the device 1 in a "portable" way, after having removed it from its supporting base 2A, it can be manually used in other places or in other applications, thereby increasing the application flexibility of the device 1 itself.
  • the detaching device 1 of the invention is of a universal type, since, through its component parts and the way in which they can be mutually moved and rearranged, the device 1 is able to assume all detaching positions that are necessary to unlock all currently existing anti-theft mechanisms.
  • anti-theft mechanisms are: anti-theft cases containing compact discs, DVDs, musicassettes, videocassettes and the like; anti-theft elements for eye-glasses; anti-theft elements for clothes; anti-theft elements for bottles.
  • the first and the second magnetic detaching element 3, 5 are made of magnetic material, while all other components of the multi-function detaching device 1 are made of light metal (such as for examples screws, small cylinders, spring) or plastic material, to guarantee lightness, compactness and handliness to the device 1.
