The product is wound so as to intersect at one place, and the attachment 3 accommodating the security tag 31 is attached to the intersection position to prevent the product inside the box 10 from being pulled out. Further, when either the first-way binding belt 21 or the second-way binding belt 22 is cut or loosened, the security tag 31 sounds an alarm to notify the theft. Here, the first-way binding belt 21 and the second-way binding belt 22 are preferably flat in shape, and for example, a PP (polypropylene) belt used when packing products can be used. It is not limited to this. By using an existing one such as a PP belt, it is possible to avoid incurring new costs.

A security tag accommodating portion 32 for accommodating the security tag 31 is formed on the upper surface 3a side of the attachment 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the security tag 31 includes a main body portion 311 supported by the security tag accommodating portion 32 and a detection switch 312 urged in a direction protruding from the main body portion 311. The detection switch 312 sounds an alarm when it is in a protruding state. The main body portion 311 has a shape in which the side surface 311a expands as it goes downward, and the side surface 311a is accommodated in a state of being loosely fitted to the security tag accommodating portion 32 shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 3, a pair of first-direction support portions 33 for supporting the first-direction binding belt 21 are formed at both ends in the first direction on the upper surface 3a side of the attachment 3. The first-direction support portion 33 is formed by being depressed downward from the upper surface 33a, and has a width equal to or larger than the width of the first-direction binding belt 21. The first-direction support portion 33 also serves as a guide when winding the first-direction binding belt 21.

A pair of second-direction support portions 34 that support the second-direction binding belt 22 from below are formed at both ends of the attachment 3 in the second direction. The second-direction support portion 34 is formed at a position recessed downward from the upper surface 3a, and is formed at a position lower than the first-direction support portion 33. The second-direction support portion 34 is formed in a planar shape in the illustrated example, but is not limited to this shape.

Further, a holding portion 342 projecting toward the lower surface side of the attachment 3 is provided diagonally above the second direction support portion 34 in the second direction. The second-way binding belt 22 is passed from between one second-direction support portion 34 and the holding portion 342 to the other between the second-way supporting portion 34 and the holding portion 342, thereby passing the second-way binding belt 22. Is attached to the attachment 3.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a through hole 321 penetrating in the vertical direction is formed in the lower portion of the security tag accommodating portion 32. The detection switch 312 of the security tag 31 shown in FIG. 2 can be accommodated in the through hole 321 so that the detection switch 312 can protrude downward. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a pair of leaf springs 35 are provided in the lower part of the security tag accommodating portion 32. The pair of leaf springs 35 are urging members that urge the second-way binding belt 22 supported by the second-way support portion 34 downward, and as shown in FIG. 5, the second-way binding belt In the state where 22 is taut and stretched, the leaf spring 35 is pressed upward. On the other hand, when the second-way binding belt 22 is loosened, the leaf spring 35 pushes the second-way binding belt 22 further downward, as shown in FIG. The leaf spring 35 may be configured such that only one is arranged.

As shown in FIGS. 7 (a) and 8 (a), the first-way binding belt 21 and the second-way binding belt 22 intersect in a vertically separated state, and the first-way binding belt 21 The security tag 31 is sandwiched between the two-way binding belt 22 and the second-direction binding belt 22. When both the first-way binding belt 21 and the second-way binding belt 22 are in a taut state, the detection switch 312 is immersed in the main body portion 311 side and does not issue an alarm. As shown in FIG. 7A, when the second-way binding belt 22 is taut, the second-way binding belt 22 prevents the detection switch 312 from protruding downward. At this time, as shown in FIG. 8A, the second direction support portion 34 is located at a position higher than the lower end 322 which is the lower surface of the security tag accommodating portion 32, and the attachment 3 of the second direction binding belt 22 is located. The portion located inside is slightly lower than the portion located outside the attachment 3.

As shown in FIG. 7B, when the first-direction binding belt 21 slackens, the state in which the security tag 31 is pressed from above is released, so that the entire security tag 31 is lifted by the elasticity of the detection switch 312 and detected. The switch 312 protrudes and is in a state of issuing an alarm. In particular, the side surface 311a expands as the main body portion 311 moves downward, and the side surface 311a is accommodated in a state of being loosely fitted to the security tag accommodating portion 32, so that the first-direction binding belt 21 When the state in which the security tag 31 is pressed down from above is released, the entire security tag 31 is easily lifted, and an alarm can be reliably issued.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8B, when the second-direction binding belt 22 slackens, the detection switch 312 protrudes to issue an alarm. The second-direction support portion 34 is located higher than the lower end 322 of the security tag accommodating portion 32, and the second-direction binding belt 22 is attached to the attachment 3 even when it is taut as shown in FIG. 8A. Since it is in a slightly lowered state inside, slack is likely to occur. Further, the action of the leaf spring 35 causes the second-way binding belt 22 to bend further downward. Therefore, even if a slight slack occurs, an alarm can be reliably issued.

As described above, in the anti-theft device 1, the detection switch 312 protrudes to issue an alarm regardless of whether the first-way binding belt 21 or the second-way binding belt 22 is slack, so that the product in the box 10 is in a state of issuing an alarm. Theft can be reliably prevented.

2 The anti-theft device 4 shown in the second embodiment is the anti-theft device of the first embodiment in that a cover member 51 that covers the first-direction binding belt 21 from above is formed on the upper surface 5a of the attachment 5. It is different from 1. The same reference numerals are given to the parts configured in the same manner as the anti-theft device 1 of the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 10, window portions 52 for passing the first-direction binding belt 21 are formed at both ends of the cover member 51 in the first direction.

As shown in FIG. 11, a security tag accommodating portion 53 accommodating the security tag 31 shown in FIG. 2 is formed on the back side of the cover member 51. A through hole 531 is provided in the lower part of the security tag accommodating portion 53, and the security tag 31 is accommodated in the security tag accommodating portion 53 through the through hole 531. The lower end 532 of the security tag accommodating portion 53 is located at a position lower than the second direction support portion 34.

As shown in FIG. 12A, when the first-direction binding belt 21 is inserted from one window portion 52, the first-direction binding belt 21 is taken out from the other window portion 52, and stretched in a taut state. The first-way binding belt 21 is in a state of following the upper surface of the main body portion 311 of the security tag 31. Then, a gap 511 is formed between the first-direction binding belt 21 and the lower surface 51a of the cover member 51. Further, when the second-direction binding belt 22 is also in a taut state, the detection switch 312 is immersed in the main body portion 311 side and the alarm is not issued.

From this state, as shown in FIG. 12B, when the first-direction binding belt 21 slackens, the force of the first-direction binding belt 21 to press the security tag 31 is released, so that the elasticity of the detection switch 312 releases the crime prevention. The tag 31 floats up, and the detection switch 312 protrudes to issue an alarm. Since the cover member 51 is formed on the attachment 5, the first-direction binding belt 21 cannot be pressed from above by human power. Therefore, fraud such as pressing and cutting the first-direction binding belt 21 becomes impossible, and the alarm can be reliably sounded.

As shown in FIG. 13A, the first-way binding belt 21 is in a state of being aligned with the upper surface of the main body portion 311 of the security tag 31, and the second-way binding belt 22 is also in a state of being taut, and the detection switch 312 is in a state of being taut. Is immersed in the main body 311 side and does not issue an alarm. Since the second-direction support portion 34 is at a position higher than the lower end 532 of the security tag accommodating portion 53, the attachment 5 of the second-direction binding belt 22 The portion located inside the attachment 5 is slightly lower than the portion located outside the attachment 5.

From this state, as shown in FIG. 13B, when the second-way binding belt 22 slackens, the detection switch 312 protrudes and the security tag 31 issues an alarm. The second-direction support portion 34 is located higher than the lower end 532 of the security tag accommodating portion 53, and the second-direction binding belt 22 is in a slightly lowered state inside the attachment 5 even when it is taut. Therefore, slack is likely to occur. Therefore, it is possible to reliably issue an alarm even with a slight slack.

As described above, even in the anti-theft device 4 of the second embodiment, the detection switch 312 protrudes and issues an alarm regardless of whether the first-way binding belt 21 or the second-way binding belt 22 is slack, so that the inside of the box 10 is used. It is possible to surely prevent the theft of the goods. Further, since the attachment 5 is provided with the cover member 51 and a gap 511 is formed between the upper surface of the first-way binding belt 21 and the lower surface 51a of the cover member 51, the gap 511 is formed when the attachment 5 is attached. As a guide, the first-way binding belt 21 can be easily passed from one window 52 to the other window 52, and when the attachment 5 is removed, the gap 511 serves as a guide to scatter the first-way binding belt 21. It is possible to prevent the attachment 5 from being attached and detached easily.

In the first and second embodiments, the infestation type detection switch 312 is provided on the lower surface of the security tag 31, but the security tag having the detection switch 312 on both the upper surface and the lower surface may be used. good.

Further, although the security tag 31 of the first embodiment and the second embodiment is provided with the haunting type detection switch 312, for example, an optical sensor may be used instead of the detection switch. For example, an optical sensor is provided on the upper surface and the lower surface of the security tag, and the optical sensor is set to an alarm state when the distance between the bifocal sensor and the first-direction binding belt or the second-direction binding belt 22 exceeds a predetermined distance. By setting, it is possible to reliably give an alarm when the first-way binding belt or the second-way binding belt 22 is slackened or cut.

In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the first-way binding belt 21 and the second-way binding belt 22 are separate, but the binding belt includes the first-way binding belt and the second-way binding belt. May be one continuous one. Further, the angle formed by the first direction and the second direction can be changed according to the shape of the box and the like, and may not be orthogonal to each other.
