Description

DISPOSITIF ANTIVOL POUR ARTICLES DE VENTE  ANTI-THEFT DEVICE FOR SALES ARTICLES
La présente invention se rapporte à un système de lutte contre le vol, en particulier le vol à l'étalage, en vue de protéger des articles en vente libre service dans un établissement commercial de vente au détail, notamment des articles vestimentaires du type vêtements, chaussures, de maroquinerie. Les dispositifs antivol connus pour ces articles en vente libre service sont le plus souvent du type macaron comprenant deux parties, une partie s'attachant après l'article à protéger et se présentant sous forme de clou piqué dans l'article et le traversant, et une autre partie accueillant la pointe du clou, et logeant le système électronique antivol et un système de verrouillage apte à retenir emprisonnée la pointe du clou. The present invention relates to an anti-theft system, particularly shoplifting, for the purpose of protecting over-the-counter (OTC) items in a commercial retail establishment, including clothing items, shoes, leather goods. The anti-theft devices known for these OTC articles are most often of the macaroon type comprising two parts, a part attaching after the article to be protected and being in the form of a nail stuck in the article and through it, and another part hosting the tip of the nail, and housing the anti-theft electronic system and a locking system capable of holding imprisoned the tip of the nail.
La demande de brevet FR 2 395 553 décrit par exemple un tel dispositif. L'article à protéger est ainsi traversé par le clou et pincé contre la partie opposée du dispositif retenant ledit clou. Cette même partie comporte le système électronique antivol tel qu'un circuit électrique résonnant susceptible de répondre à la présence d'un champ magnétique, radio fréquence ou électromagnétique d'interrogation d'un système de détection extérieur. Lorsque l'article pourvu du dispositif antivol traverse une zone de contrôle ou d'interrogation, le circuit électrique du dispositif antivol coopère avec le système de détection mis en place, engendrant le déclenchement d'un signal d'alarme à la fréquence de résonance du circuit électrique du dispositif. The patent application FR 2,395,553 for example describes such a device. The article to be protected is thus traversed by the nail and pinched against the opposite part of the device holding said nail. This same part includes the electronic antitheft system such as a resonant electrical circuit capable of responding to the presence of a magnetic field, radio frequency or electromagnetic interrogation of an external detection system. When the article provided with the antitheft device passes through a control or interrogation zone, the antitheft device's electrical circuit cooperates with the detection system put in place, causing the triggering of an alarm signal at the resonance frequency of the electrical circuit of the device.
Le retrait du dispositif antivol est effectué au moyen d'un outil connu de support et aimanté, sur lequel on applique la partie du dispositif pourvue du système de verrouillage du clou. Le système de verrouillage du dispositif comprend une pièce de retenue en matériau magnétique apte à être mobile et associée à un ressort. En positionnant le macaron portant le système de verrouillage contre l'aimant, la création d'un champ magnétique autour de la pièce de retenue magnétique et sensible à ce champ, engendre l'attirance de ladite pièce de retenue ; le déplacement de la pièce libère la tige du clou qui est alors repoussée élastiquement par le ressort. Le clou ainsi dissocié de la pièce opposée du macaron, peut alors être retiré de l'article. The antitheft device is removed by means of a known magnet and support tool on which the part of the device provided with the device is applied. the nail locking system. The locking system of the device comprises a retaining piece of magnetic material capable of being movable and associated with a spring. By positioning the badge carrying the locking system against the magnet, the creation of a magnetic field around the magnetic retaining piece and sensitive to this field, causes the attraction of said retaining piece; the movement of the part releases the nail rod which is then elastically pushed by the spring. The nail thus dissociated from the opposite piece of the macaroon, can then be removed from the article.
Cependant, ce type de dispositif présente l'inconvénient de devoir piquer l'article, risquant fortement de l'abîmer, en particulier pour les articles de maroquinerie. En outre, l'endroit d'association du macaron antivol est parfois imposé en raison du type d'article et de l'obligation de transpercer cet article. Or le point d'attache n'est pas toujours commode pour certains articles, tels que des chaussures, car gênant notamment leur essayage. L'invention remédie aux inconvénients précités en proposant un dispositif antivol écartant l'obligation de piqûre dans l'article à protéger, tout en étant simple d'utilisation pour l'associer et le dissocier de l'article. However, this type of device has the disadvantage of having to stitch the article, with the risk of damaging it, especially for leather goods. In addition, the place of association of the anti-theft badge is sometimes imposed because of the type of article and the obligation to pierce this article. But the point of attachment is not always convenient for some items, such as shoes, as particularly embarrassing their fitting. The invention overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing an antitheft device excluding the obligation to sting in the article to protect, while being easy to use to associate and dissociate the article.
Selon l'invention, le dispositif antivol pour article en vente libre comporte d'une part un boîtier dont le corps loge un système de détection antivol et des moyens de verrouillage, et d'autre part et un élément d'attache apte à être verrouillé dans le corps du boîtier, notamment en position d'association du dispositif avec l'article. Le dispositif est caractérisé en ce l'élément d'attache est filiforme et est associé au boîtier de façon mobile, ledit élément comprenant une extrémité proximale solidaire du corps du boîtier et une extrémité distale apte à adopter soit une position d'attache en étant retenue verrouillée dans le corps du boîtier (dite « position fermée du dispositif »), soit une position de dissociation en étant libre et séparée du boîtier (dite « position ouverte du dispositif »). According to the invention, the anti-theft device for an over-the-counter item comprises, on the one hand, a housing whose body houses an antitheft detection system and locking means, and on the other hand and a fastening element that can be locked. in the body of the housing, in particular in the association position of the device with the article. The device is characterized in that the fastening element is filamentary and is movably associated with the housing, said element comprising a proximal end secured to the body of the body. housing and a distal end adapted to adopt either an attachment position being retained locked in the body of the housing (called "closed position of the device"), or a dissociation position by being free and separate from the housing (called "open position of the device ").
L'élément d'attache est fait d'un matériau qui nécessite un outil pour être sectionné, à savoir que l'élément d'attache est un matériau qui ne peut être sectionné aisément, c'est-à-dire un matériau qui nécessite, pour être découpé, un outil du type pince, scie, et non un outil plus usuel de découpage tel que des ciseaux. The fastener is made of a material that requires a tool to be cut, that is, the fastener is a material that can not be cut easily, that is, a material that requires to be cut, a tool of the type pliers, saw, and not a more usual cutting tool such as scissors.
Le dispositif est plus particulièrement conçu pour certains types d'articles ou accessoires d'articles qui présentent en particulier une partie formant anneau (telle qu'une lanière inamovible) ou un trou autorisant le passage de l'élément d'attache via son extrémité amovible. The device is more particularly designed for certain types of articles or article accessories which have in particular a ring portion (such as a non-removable lanyard) or a hole allowing the passage of the fastening element via its removable end. .
L'élément d'attache est constitué d'un matériau rigide, tel que du métal. On entend par matériau rigide, un matériau qui engendre une inviolabilité de l'élément d'attache en position fermée sur un article à protéger et en place dans un magasin. The fastening element is made of a rigid material, such as metal. Rigid material means a material that engenders tampering of the fastener element in the closed position on an item to be protected and in place in a store.
L'élément d'attache filiforme comporte des formes droites et/ou courbes. Il suffit qu'en position fermée du dispositif, l'élément d'attache reproduise la géométrie d'une ligne fermée à ses deux extrémités, cette ligne étant refermée sur l'article à protéger. The filiform fastening element has straight and / or curved shapes. It is sufficient that in closed position of the device, the fastener reproduces the geometry of a closed line at both ends, this line being closed on the article to be protected.
Le dispositif selon l'invention est ainsi avantageusement utilisé à la manière d'un cadenas, le corps du boîtier étant sensiblement parallélépipédique, et l'élément d'attache ayant par exemple une forme de U inversé, l'âme du U constituant une anse, et les branches du U formant respectivement deux tiges espacées dont l'une est fixée au corps du boîtier de manière permanente tout en autorisant au moins un degré de liberté de l'élément, et l'autre tige est fixée au corps du boîtier de manière détachable. The device according to the invention is thus advantageously used in the manner of a padlock, the body of the housing being substantially parallelepipedal, and the fastening element having for example an inverted U-shape, the U core constituting a handle , and the branches of the U forming respectively two spaced rods one of which is permanently attached to the body of the housing while allowing at least one degree of freedom of the element, and the other rod is fixed to the housing body detachably.
L'anse de l'élément d'attache permet au dispositif d'être suspendu et retenu après une lanière inamovible ou à l'alésage d'un article autorisant au travers lui, le passage de l'élément d'attache. Ainsi, le dispositif permet une association simple et rapide en passant l'arceau autour de la partie d'accueil de l'article. The handle of the fastening element allows the device to be suspended and retained after an irremovable strap or to the bore of an article allowing through it, the passage of the fastening element. Thus, the device allows a simple and fast association by passing the hoop around the home part of the article.
Le profil de l'élément d'attache et la dimension du dispositif seront plus particulièrement adaptées aux articles à protéger. The profile of the fastening element and the size of the device will be more particularly adapted to the articles to be protected.
L'amovibilité de la tige détachable une fois associée au boîtier n'est rendue possible que par un outil spécifique et approprié pour assurer le dégagement de la tige hors du boîtier. Le ou les matériaux constitutifs de l'élément d'attache ainsi que le système de verrouillage interne au boîtier rendent par conséquent inviolable la séparation de l'élément d'attache en position associée avec le boîtier. The removability of the detachable rod once associated with the housing is made possible only by a specific tool and appropriate to ensure the release of the rod out of the housing. The constituent material (s) of the fastening element as well as the internal locking system of the casing consequently make the separation of the fastening element in position associated with the casing inviolable.
L'extrémité proximale de l'élément d'attache fixée au boîtier est crochetée et sertie, en étant apte à pivoter, à un ergot de fixation interne au corps du boîtier, et est encapsulée dans le corps du boîtier. Cette fixation donnée à titre d'exemple assure une solidarisation inviolable de cette extrémité au boîtier, tout en permettant la mobilité de l'élément d'attache. The proximal end of the attachment member attached to the housing is hooked and crimped, being pivotable, to a fixing lug internal to the housing body, and is encapsulated in the housing body. This attachment given by way of example ensures a tamper-proof fastening of this end to the housing, while allowing the mobility of the fastening element.
En variante de fixation, l'extrémité proximale de l'élément d'attache associée au boîtier est enserrée dans un ressort logé entre deux butées à l'intérieur du boîtier, et est apte à pivoter et subir une translation pour l'engagement et le dégagement de l'extrémité distale dans et respectivement hors du boîtier. Selon une caractéristique, le corps du boîtier comporte une cavité destinée à accueillir l'extrémité distale amovible de l'élément d'attache, et dans laquelle un organe de verrouillage est apte à être mobile, de préférence transversalement à cette extrémité, de façon à venir coopérer avec celle-ci pour son blocage en position. As a variant of attachment, the proximal end of the fastening element associated with the housing is clamped in a spring housed between two abutments inside the housing, and is pivotable and translational for engagement and disengagement of the distal end into and out of the housing, respectively. According to one characteristic, the body of the housing comprises a cavity intended to receive the removable distal end of the attachment element, and in which a locking member is able to be movable, preferably transversely to this end, so as to come cooperate with it for its blockage in position.
L'extrémité distale amovible de l'élément d'attache et le système de verrouillage comportent en particulier des moyens de coopération mutuelle de retenue. Avantageusement, l'extrémité distale amovible de l'élément d'attache est pointue de manière à faciliter son introduction à l'intérieur du boîtier. The removable distal end of the attachment member and the locking system include in particular mutual restraint means. Advantageously, the removable distal end of the attachment element is pointed so as to facilitate its introduction into the housing.
Les moyens de verrouillage verrouillant en position introduite l'extrémité distale amovible de l'élément d'attache, sont agencés dans une partie du corps faisant saillie du reste du corps. Cette configuration facilite la coopération par application contre cette partie en saillie d'un outil adapté assurant le déverrouillage sans contact de l'extrémité amovible de l'élément d'attache. Enfin, le système de détection antivol est un système électronique de détection de vol du type par radiofréquence ou magnéto-acoustique The locking means locking in the inserted position the removable distal end of the fastening element, are arranged in a portion of the body projecting from the rest of the body. This configuration facilitates cooperation by application against this projecting portion of a suitable tool ensuring unlocking without contact with the removable end of the fastener element. Finally, the antitheft detection system is an electronic flight detection system of the radiofrequency or magneto-acoustic type.

Les figures 1 et 2 illustrent un dispositif antivol 1 selon l'invention destiné à être attaché autour d'une lanière inamovible, ou passé au travers d'un orifice, d'un article en vente libre par exemple des articles vestimentaires, de maroquinerie ou de sport, pour les protéger du vol à l'étalage. FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate an antitheft device 1 according to the invention intended to be fastened around an irremovable strap, or passed through an orifice, of an article sold over the counter, for example articles of clothing, leather goods or of sports, to protect them from shoplifting.
Le dispositif a l'apparence d'un cadenas. Il adopte une position ouverte, telle que visible sur la figure 1 , ou une position fermée, visible sur la figure 2, de manière à être par exemple passé dans un œillet 7 de chaussure à lacets de la manière montrée sur la figure 6. The device looks like a padlock. It adopts an open position, as can be seen in FIG. 1, or a closed position, visible in FIG. 2, so as to be for example passed through an eyelet 7 of lace-up shoe as shown in FIG.
Le dispositif comporte un boîtier 2 et un élément d'attache 3 (dit "attache" dans la suite de la description) destiné à coopérer avec le boîtier pour y être maintenu bloqué en position d'attache. L'élément d'attache 3 de forme allongée et courbe, à la manière d'une boucle, est destiné à entourer une lanière d'article, ou être passé au travers de l'orifice d'un article. Selon les figures 2 et 3, le boîtier 2 présente un corps 20 de forme par exemple sensiblement parallélépipédique, qui loge un système de détection contre le vol représenté schématiquement par le bloc 4, et des moyens de verrouillage 5 bloquant en position de retenue l'élément d'attache 3 lorsqu'il est introduit dans le corps du boîtier 2. The device comprises a housing 2 and a fastening element 3 (called "fastener" in the following description) intended to cooperate with the housing to be kept locked in the fastening position. The fastening element 3 of An elongate and curved shape, like a loop, is intended to surround an article thong, or to be passed through the orifice of an article. According to FIGS. 2 and 3, the casing 2 has a body 20 of shape, for example substantially parallelepipedal, which houses a theft detection system shown schematically by the block 4, and locking means 5 blocking in the retaining position. fastening element 3 when inserted into the body of the casing 2.
Le système de détection 4 est un système électronique résonnant de type connu, destiné à coopérer avec un émetteur-récepteur de détection et d'alarme (non représenté) extérieur au boîtier 2. Les moyens de verrouillage 5 seront détaillés plus loin. The detection system 4 is a resonant electronic system of known type, intended to cooperate with a detection and alarm transceiver (not shown) outside the housing 2. The locking means 5 will be detailed later.
Le corps 20 du boîtier est de préférence fait d'une matière plastique rigide, telle qu'en polychlorure de vinyle (PVC). Le corps 20 est de préférence constitué, tel que visible sur la figure 2, de deux demi-coquilles 21 et 22 qui sont assemblées de façon inamovible l'une à l'autre, après avoir agencé à l'intérieur (figure 3 ou 4) le système électronique antivol 4, les moyens de verrouillage 5, et avoir fixé l'une des extrémités 31 a de l'élément d'attache 3. The body 20 of the housing is preferably made of a rigid plastic material, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The body 20 is preferably constituted, as can be seen in FIG. 2, from two half-shells 21 and 22 which are assembled immovably to one another, after being arranged inside (FIG. 3 or 4). ) the anti-theft electronic system 4, the locking means 5, and having fixed one of the ends 31a of the fastening element 3.
Les deux demi-coquilles sont par exemple assemblées par soudure aux ultrasons. The two half-shells are for example assembled by ultrasonic welding.
Le corps peut en variante être formé d'une unique pièce moulée autour des éléments logés à l'intérieur du boîtier. En regard des figures 2 et 3, l'élément d'attache 3 est en forme d'arceau ou de U inversé, et comporte une anse 30 (en forme sensiblement de demi cercle ou demi ellipse) et deux tiges ou branches 31 et 32 prolongeant l'anse de chaque côté, de manière parallèle. The body may alternatively be formed of a single piece molded around the elements housed inside the housing. With reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, the fastening element 3 is in the form of an arch or inverted U, and comprises a handle 30 (in substantially half-circle or half-ellipse shape) and two rods or branches 31 and 32. extending the handle on each side, parallel.
L'une des tiges 31 par son extrémité 31 a, opposée à l'anse 30, est solidaire du corps du boîtier. Si l'attache 3 est en matériau rigide, elle doit être fixée au corps 2 de manière à permette au moins un degré de liberté. Dans ce cas, selon l'exemple montré, l'attache 3 est montée articulée (en son extrémité proximale 31 a) sur le boîtier 2 selon le plan dudit boîtier. L'autre tige 32 présente son extrémité distale 32a, opposée à l'anse, qui est amovible. Elle est soit détachée du corps du boîtier (figure 1 ), le dispositif antivol étant ouvert et prêt à être attaché à un article, soit fixée au corps en y étant maintenue bloquée (figures 2 et 6), le dispositif antivol étant fermé et verrouillé et ainsi attaché à un article (chaussure par exemple). One of the rods 31 at its end 31a, opposite the handle 30, is integral with the body of the housing. If the fastener 3 is of rigid material, it must be fixed to the body 2 so as to allow at least one degree of freedom. In this case, according to the example shown, the fastener 3 is articulated (at its proximal end 31a) on the housing 2 according to the plane of said housing. The other rod 32 has its distal end 32a, opposite the handle, which is removable. It is either detached from the body of the housing (Figure 1), the antitheft device being open and ready to be attached to an article, is fixed to the body being held blocked (Figures 2 and 6), the antitheft device being closed and locked and so attached to an article (shoe for example).
La tige 32 à l'extrémité libre est de préférence plus longue que l'autre tige, son extrémité 32a et une portion 33 devant être insérées suffisamment vers l'intérieur du boîtier pour coopérer avec les moyens de verrouillage 5. The rod 32 at the free end is preferably longer than the other rod, its end 32a and a portion 33 to be inserted sufficiently inwardly of the housing to cooperate with the locking means 5.
L'élément d'attache est fait d'un matériau qui ne peut pas être sectionné par des moyens usuels de découpe du type ciseaux. Il ne doit effectivement pas être possible de le découper ou de le rompre soit manuellement, soit avec des ciseaux, pour ainsi empêcher de le détacher de l'article auquel il est fixé en magasin. A cette fin, le matériau est de préférence en métal, soit sous forme d'un câble tressé, soit filiforme rigide. Il est constitué par exemple d'un matériau métallique, en particulier en acier traité pour ne pas rouiller. The fastener is made of a material that can not be cut by conventional scissors-type cutting means. It must not be possible to cut or break it either manually or with scissors, to prevent it from detaching it from the article to which it is attached in the store. For this purpose, the material is preferably of metal, either in the form of a braided cable or rigid filiform. It consists for example of a metallic material, in particular steel treated to not rust.
En variante, le matériau est à base d'une matière plastique rigide renforcée de fibres. Alternatively, the material is based on a rigid plastic material reinforced with fibers.
Au moins le matériau de la portion 33 destinée à être insérée dans le boîtier est à base au moins d'un matériau magnétisé, tel que du fer, de manière à pouvoir coopérer avec les moyens de verrouillage qui sont aimantés comme il sera vu ultérieurement. At least the material of the portion 33 intended to be inserted into the housing is based at least on a magnetized material, such as iron, so as to cooperate with the locking means which are magnetized as will be seen later.
L'élément d'attache 3 peut prendre diverses formes dont différents exemples géométriques sont illustrés sur les figures 5a à 5c. La ligne constitutive de l'élément d'attache située entre les deux extrémités 31 a et 32a présente des segments droits et/ou courbes. The fastening element 3 can take various forms of which various geometrical examples are illustrated in FIGS. 5a to 5c. The constituent line of the fastening element located between the two ends 31a and 32a has straight and / or curved segments.
Les extrémités 31 a et 32a sont séparées d'une distance telle qu'en position fermée du dispositif (figures 2 et 3), l'extrémité 32a coopère avec les moyens de verrouillage 5 The ends 31a and 32a are separated by a distance such that in the closed position of the device (FIGS. 2 and 3), the end 32a cooperates with the locking means 5.
En regard des figures 3 et 4, l'extrémité proximale 31 a est fixée au corps du boîtier. Elle est rendue solidaire de sorte qu'elle ne puisse pas se rompre ou se desceller si l'on tire sur la tige 31 du dispositif. Elle est par exemple fixée fermement en présentant une forme de virole ou crochet serti autour d'un tenon 23 solidaire du corps du boîtier. En outre, le maintien de cette extrémité 31 a est renforcé par son encapsulation entre les deux demi-coquilles du corps 20 du boîtier. Cette extrémité est rigide ou pourrait être souple pour assurer sa mobilité par rapport au boîtier pour l'insertion de l'autre extrémité 32a dans le boîtier. La souplesse nécessite néanmoins que le matériau soit résistant à la rupture, pour qu'en magasin, l'attache soit inviolable. With reference to FIGS. 3 and 4, the proximal end 31a is fixed to the body of the housing. It is made integral so that it can not break or unseal if one pulls on the rod 31 of the device. It is for example fixed firmly in the form of a ferrule or hook crimped around a pin 23 integral with the body of the housing. In addition, the maintenance of this end 31a is reinforced by its encapsulation between the two half-shells of the body 20 of the housing. This end is rigid or could be flexible to ensure its mobility relative to the housing for insertion of the other end 32a into the housing. However, the flexibility requires that the material is resistant to breakage, so that in store, the fastener is tamperproof.
Lorsque l'attache est réalisée en un matériau rigide, la fixation de l'extrémité 31 a est telle que l'attache 30 puisse être mise en mouvement de manière à permettre la fixation (amovible) ou la désolidarisation de l'extrémité opposée 31 a par rapport au corps 2. When the fastener is made of a rigid material, the fixing of the end 31a is such that the fastener 30 can be set in motion so as to allow the attachment (removable) or the separation of the opposite end 31a relative to the body 2.
L'autre extrémité distale 32a est libre et est apte à être introduite dans une cavité ou logement approprié 24 agencé dans le corps du boîtier (figures 3 et 4). Ce logement est de forme oblongue pour qu'outre l'extrémité 32a, une portion longiligne d'extrémité 33 de la tige soit également accueillie. The other distal end 32a is free and is adapted to be introduced into a cavity or suitable housing 24 arranged in the body of the housing (Figures 3 and 4). This housing is of oblong shape so that in addition to the end 32a, an elongated end portion 33 of the rod is also welcomed.
Le bord du corps du boîtier comporte un orifice 25 d'entrée vers le logement 24 pour l'introduction de l'extrémité 32a. The housing body edge has an inlet port to the housing 24 for insertion of the end 32a.
Avantageusement, l'orifice 25 présente une forme sensiblement en entonnoir, tandis que l'extrémité 32a est pointue de manière à favoriser l'insertion de l'extrémité de la tige par guidage mutuel. Advantageously, the orifice 25 has a shape substantially funnel, while the end 32a is pointed so as to promote the insertion of the end of the rod by mutual guidance.
Sur les vues des figures 3 et 4, sont visibles les moyens de verrouillage 5 bloquant en position la portion 33 de la tige à l'intérieur du boîtier. Les moyens de verrouillage illustrés sont donnés à titre d'exemple mais ne son pas limitatifs. D'autres moyens de verrouillage pourraient être imaginés. Ces moyens de verrouillage 5 comportent un premier système 50 d'appui et mobile via un ressort et un second système 51 mobile via un ressort et aimanté pour assurer le verrouillage. Tel que visible sur la figure 4, le premier système 50 d'appui comporte un axe 52 monté d'une tête plate 53, et un ressort 54 disposé autour de l'axe. L'axe est monté coulissant dans le logement d'accueil 24 grâce au ressort entre une butée haute et une butée basse. En regard de la figure 3, lorsque la tige 32 est introduite dans le boîtier, l'extrémité 32a prend appui sur la tête 53 et repousse l'axe 52 jusqu'à la butée basse, engendrant la compression du ressort 54. Concomitamment, le système de verrouillage 51 est activé comme on le verra ensuite, pour empêcher le retrait de la tige 32. In the views of Figures 3 and 4, are visible the locking means 5 blocking in position the portion 33 of the rod inside the housing. The locking means illustrated are given by way of example but are not limiting. Other locking means could be imagined. These locking means 5 comprise a first support system 50 and movable via a spring and a second system 51 movable via a spring and magnetized to ensure locking. As can be seen in FIG. 4, the first support system 50 comprises an axle 52 mounted with a flat head 53, and a spring 54 arranged around the axis. The shaft is slidably mounted in the receiving housing 24 by means of the spring between an upper stop and a lower stop. With reference to FIG. 3, when the rod 32 is inserted into the casing, the end 32a bears on the head 53 and pushes the shaft 52 as far as the bottom stop, causing compression of the spring 54. Concomitantly, the locking system 51 is activated as will be seen later, to prevent the withdrawal of the rod 32.
En position de déverrouillage du second système 51 , le ressort 54 qui était comprimé se détend engendrant l'éjection de la tige 32 hors du boîtier. Le système de verrouillage 51 est transversal au premier système (figures 3 et 4). Il comporte un organe de verrouillage 55 aimanté de forme cylindrique et un ressort 56 prenant appui entre le bord du boîtier et l'une des extrémités de l'organe de verrouillage. L'extrémité de l'aimant opposée au ressort est destinée à déboucher dans la partie supérieure du logement 24. In the unlocked position of the second system 51, the spring 54 which was compressed expands causing ejection of the rod 32 from the housing. The locking system 51 is transverse to the first system (Figures 3 and 4). It comprises a magnetic locking member 55 of cylindrical shape and a spring 56 bearing between the edge of the housing and one end of the locking member. The end of the magnet opposite the spring is intended to open into the upper part of the housing 24.
Lorsque la portion 33 de la tige 32 est introduite dans le logement 24, son matériau étant métallique, l'organe de verrouillage aimanté 55 est attiré contre elle. Avantageusement, l'organe de verrouillage présente une terminaison biseautée 57 qui coopère avec une encoche 34 agencée dans la portion 33 de l'élément d'attache, empêchant ensuite le retrait de la tige. D'autres moyens de retenue et de coopération mutuelle que les éléments illustrés 57 et 34 peuvent être envisagés. Avantageusement, les moyens de verrouillage verrouillant en position introduite l'extrémité distale amovible de l'élément d'attache, sont agencés dans une partie 26 du corps faisant saillie du reste du corps. Cet agencement permet de disposer plus facilement contre le boîtier, un outil de déverrouillage couramment employé pour les macarons antivol usuels, tel que l'outil 6 visible sur la figure 7, qui présente une cavité ou renfoncement pour accueillir par applique la partie formant saillie du boîtier. When the portion 33 of the rod 32 is inserted into the housing 24, its material being metallic, the magnetic locking member 55 is drawn against it. Advantageously, the locking member has a tapered end 57 which cooperates with a notch 34 arranged in the portion 33 of the fastener, then preventing the removal of the rod. Other means of restraint and mutual cooperation than illustrated elements 57 and 34 can be envisaged. Advantageously, the locking means locking in the inserted position the removable distal end of the fastening element, are arranged in a portion 26 of the body projecting from the rest of the body. This arrangement makes it easier to dispose against the housing, an unlocking tool commonly used for the usual anti-theft tags, such as the tool 6 shown in Figure 7, which has a recess or recess for receiving by applying the projection portion of the housing.
Le fonctionnement du dispositif antivol de l'invention va à présent être décrit. The operation of the antitheft device of the invention will now be described.
Le dispositif antivol est en position ouverte pour l'attacher à un article. The anti-theft device is in the open position to attach to an article.
On passe l'anse 32 de l'élément d'attache du dispositif après une lanière ou, comme ici en figures 6 et 7, après l'œillet d'une chaussure à lacets. The loop 32 of the fastening element of the device is passed after a strap or, as here in FIGS. 6 and 7, after the eyelet of a shoe with laces.
On introduit la tige libre 32 dans l'orifice 25 du boîtier, et on la pousse vers l'intérieur du boîtier jusqu'à enclenchement du système de verrouillage 5, la tige 32 étant en position bloquée par la coopération de la pointe 57 de l'aimant dans l'encoche 34 de l'élément d'attache. Le dispositif est alors fermé et verrouillé. The free rod 32 is inserted into the orifice 25 of the casing, and it is pushed towards the inside of the casing until the locking system 5 is engaged, the rod 32 being in the locked position by the cooperation of the tip 57 of the casing. magnet in the notch 34 of the fastener. The device is then closed and locked.
Pour retirer le dispositif de l'article, tel qu'illustré sur la figure 7, on positionne un outil 6 adapté au déverrouillage du système de verrouillage contre la partie du corps 26 du boîtier logeant le système 51 . Il s'agit d'un aimant puissant qui permet d'attirer l'organe de verrouillage 55 dans un sens opposé à la portion 33 en place dans le logement 24. Le déplacement de l'organe de verrouillage 55 libère son accouplement avec la portion 33, et sous l'effet du ressort de compression 54 du système d'appui 50, la tige 32 est éjectée en dehors du boîtier. Le dispositif est à nouveau ouvert. To remove the device from the article, as shown in FIG. 7, is positioned a tool 6 adapted to unlock the locking system against the body portion 26 of the housing housing the system 51. This is a powerful magnet that attracts the locking member 55 in a direction opposite to the portion 33 in place in the housing 24. The displacement of the locking member 55 releases its coupling with the portion 33, and under the effect the compression spring 54 of the support system 50, the rod 32 is ejected outside the housing. The device is open again.
Le dispositif de l'invention est extrêmement maniable et manipulable en étant simple d'utilisation, et évite de transpercer l'article à protéger. The device of the invention is extremely manageable and manipulable by being easy to use, and avoids piercing the article to be protected.
D'autres variantes d'association de l'élément d'attache 3 au boîtier par son extrémité proximale 31 a sont bien entendu envisageable. La figure 8 illustre un exemple supplémentaire. La tige 31 présente son extrémité proximale 31 a enserrée dans un ressort 8, lui-même agencé entre deux butées dans un logement du boîtier. En position ouverte du dispositif, la tige 31 est libre de pivoter permettant d'agencer aisément l'autre extrémité 32 autour du produit à protéger. Une fois l'anse rigide 30 associé au produit, l'utilisateur fait pivoter la tige 31 de manière à agencer l'extrémité 32a de l'autre tige 32 en regard de la cavité 24 du boîtier. En appuyant sur la tige 31 associée au ressort 8, l'ensemble de l'élément d'attache 3 est translaté de sorte que l'extrémité 32a est introduite dans la cavité 24 dans laquelle les moyens de verrouillage 5 se déclenchent. Other variants of association of the fastening element 3 to the housing by its proximal end 31a are of course conceivable. Figure 8 illustrates a further example. The rod 31 has its proximal end 31 has clamped in a spring 8, itself arranged between two stops in a housing of the housing. In the open position of the device, the rod 31 is free to pivot to easily arrange the other end 32 around the product to be protected. Once the rigid handle 30 associated with the product, the user rotates the rod 31 so as to arrange the end 32a of the other rod 32 facing the cavity 24 of the housing. By pressing on the rod 31 associated with the spring 8, the assembly of the fastening element 3 is translated so that the end 32a is introduced into the cavity 24 in which the locking means 5 are triggered.
