[Prior art]

 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are known storage cases such as an alarm case, a high-voltage shock generator, or both devices that can be turned on and off by a remote control to prevent theft and storage of storage cases such as attache cases and flight cases. . In this remote control type antitheft storage case, the owner of the storage case puts the remote control on the clothes pocket, band, or the like. If you put the storage case on the ground, floor, desk, etc., if you turn on the switch of the remote control, an alarm will be generated if a thief tries to pull it away or steal it with a slight gap, or a high voltage shock will occur. Alarm or a high voltage shock occurs at the same time. Or, even if it is stolen without turning on the remote control switch, if the switch of the remote control is turned on within a certain distance (for example, about 50 m), an alarm or high voltage shock will occur and both It can occur. However, since this remote control or equipment is expensive and the storage space is small, it is difficult to popularize it.

As an anti-theft device attached to a bag or the like, an alarm generating device having a real switch and a plurality of counterfeit switches, and a magic tape part with a sensor (second switch) connected to the device by wire. Some consist of. In this device, the magic tape is wrapped around the grip of the bag and the alarm generator is hung on the outside of the bag. Turn on the real switch of the alarm device. An alarm sounds when the grip is grasped from the top of the magic tape part by hand to steal the bag or the like, thereby preventing detention or theft. With this method, an alarm sounds when the grip's Velcro part is gripped with bare hands, but the alarm does not sound when the grip's Velcro part is gripped with a hand bag or the like. In addition, since the alarm generator is visible from outside, this method has a problem that if the alarm generator is cut and abandoned, the bag cannot be stolen because the alarm generator is not attached to the bag.

There is a buzzer with a switch as an anti-theft device. For example, the switch has two stages, primary and secondary. When the primary switch is turned on and the secondary switch is attached with a string, the switch button is pulled out to be turned on and the buzzer sounds, or a string or cord is attached to the buzzer. There are some cases where the buzzer sounds when you insert the attached plug and pull the string or cord to remove the plug from the buzzer. To stop the sound of this buzzer, the former can be stopped by pressing the switch button pulled out with a string and then pressing the primary switch button. The latter can be stopped by inserting the plug into the buzzer. For such a mechanism, if a buzzer is attached to the bag, etc., and the tip of the string or cord is worn, the buzzer will be used when the bag etc. is retracted, snagged, or stolen. You can ring and prevent theft. Although it has the advantage of being easy to use without increasing the cost, it is also easy to remove the buzzer from the bag etc. and the buzzer can be removed from the bag etc. and taken away, so the anti-theft effect is not sufficient. There's a problem. In addition, this device may be inconvenient because the body is connected to the bag with a string or the like.

[0005]

[Issues to be solved by the device]

 The conventional storage case with remote control type anti-theft device is difficult to put into practical use because the device is expensive and the storage space is small. A simple anti-theft device is advantageous in terms of cost, but since the alarm and buzzer generators are located outside the storage case, these generators can be easily removed. There is also a problem with the secondary switch system for directly generating audio.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is that an alarm device such as an alarm or a buzzer can be built in a storage case without taking a space, and the switch mechanism has an excellent anti-theft effect even if it is not seen from the outside, and the cost is also high. It is to provide an anti-theft storage case that is cheap and has excellent practicality.

[0010]

[Action]

 Broadly speaking, the storage case of the present invention comprises a storage case, a sound generating device for alarm, high sound (buzzer, alarm, etc.), and first and second switch mechanisms for controlling the sound generation. There is. According to the present invention, a sound generating device such as a buzzer and an alarm is set inside the storage case, and a first switch mechanism for switching the sound generating device to an active state or a rest state is provided on the outer wall of the storage case and It is provided on at least one of the inside, and is provided on the outer wall of the storage case as a second switch mechanism capable of outputting the sound generating device when the sound generating device is in an active state, and grounding from the grounded state is performed. It is characterized by the provision of at least one grounding device with a switch that turns on when released, or at least one handle with a switch that turns on when a handle (grip) of the storage case is moved.

In the present invention, a sound generator such as a buzzer and an alarm is set in the storage case. However, the output sound is stored in the storage case by the above-mentioned small-sized buzzer, a sound generator such as an alarm. , You can hear it clearly and loudly. Since it is inside the case, the sound generator cannot be taken out unless the storage case is opened.

If the first switch mechanism is provided on the outer wall of the storage case, the sound generating device can be switched between the active state and the inactive state by turning on and off from the outside. When it is installed inside the storage case, it can be turned on and off before closing the open storage case. If both are used together, it can be turned on or off when the storage case is opened or after it is closed. As the first switch mechanism, as will be described later, a key system, an insertion plug system, a rotation system, a push button system, a secret code system, etc. are preferably used.

When the first switch mechanism is turned on, the circuit of the voice generating device is activated, and the voice generating device is ready for output by the input of the second switch mechanism. One of the second switch mechanisms is provided on the grounding tool of the storage case. Others are provided on the handle of the storage case. Usually, bags are provided with stud legs such as a grounding metal fitting as a grounding tool on the bottom. The travel trunk also has casters as a grounding tool. At least one of these grounding tools shall be a grounding tool with a switch. Alternatively, even without a grounding tool, install a grounding tool with a switch that projects outward from the outer wall at an appropriate position in the storage case. When the storage case is placed on the ground, floor, etc. with the storage case facing down, the switch is in the OFF state, but the storage case is lifted and the switch When the ground is released, the switch turns on. When the switch is turned on while the sound generating device is in an active state, a sound such as a buzzer or alarm is generated and continues to sound. When the storage case is lowered and the switch-equipped grounding tool is grounded, the sound generation stops. It is also possible to stop the utterance by turning off the first switch mechanism without stopping the generation even when the player touches the ground.

Many of the storage cases are also provided with handles. A switch mechanism can be provided on this handle. The switch is OFF when the handle is sleeping, and is turned on as soon as the handle is gripped. For example, an alarm can also be issued by holding the handle when trying to take away a storage case placed on a net rack such as in a train. The above switch is equipped with either a grounding tool or a handle with a switch, or both, so if the storage case is lifted or the handle is gripped, the buzzer will be activated immediately if the first switch mechanism is turned on. An alarm sound is generated.

Thus, it is possible to prevent the storage case from being pulled out, snatched, and stolen. Even if a person stealing the storage case tries to stop the sound such as a buzzer or an alarm, the sound generator cannot be stopped because the sound generator is built into the storage case, so the storage case must be abandoned. In addition, even if the storage case is grounded, the sound does not stop sounding. If it can be stopped by turning off the first switch mechanism, the sound does not stop even when it is placed in a car, so it will be stolen by the car. It is difficult and can prevent theft twice. Further, a simple and compact type is sufficient as the voice generating device and the switch mechanism, cost is not required, and mounting is easy.
