  • This invention relates generally to display hooks for supporting items of merchandise, while preventing rapid removal of the items from the display hook. More particularly, the invention relates to a merchandise display hook having interlocking time delay arms for increasing the amount of time needed to remove items of merchandise from the display hook.
  • a known technique of amateur shoplifters and professional thieves alike is to remove all of the items of merchandise from the display hook at the same time. This technique is commonly referred to as "sweeping" since the items are simultaneously removed from the support rod of the display hook with a rear-to-front sweeping motion.
  • display hooks have been developed that include anti-sweep features.
  • the simplest anti-sweep feature devised thus far for use on display hooks is a series of bends formed adjacent the free end of the support rod. The series of bends require each item of merchandise to be manipulated off of the support rod of the display hook one at a time. This feature, however, is only somewhat effective since shoplifters and thieves have developed improved dexterity and/or tools for manipulating the merchandise over the series of bends.
  • Another known feature for preventing the simultaneous theft of multiple items of merchandise by sweeping is a locking device positioned medially on the support rod of the display hook.
  • the locking device is locked into position on the display hook in front of several of the items.
  • potential purchasers have access to some of the items for immediate purchase, while the remaining items are securely locked on the support rod of the display hook behind the locking device.
  • the display hook is available from Alpha Security Products, Inc. of Charlotte, North Carolina and presently sold under the trade name Secure FixturesTM equipped with the StopLokTM locking device.
  • the StopLokTM locking device is shown and described in United States Patent Application Publication No. 2007/0062890 A1 , the disclosure of which is incorporated herein.
  • a display hook for supporting items of merchandise on a display structure that includes a rod assembly and a pair of interlocking time delay arms medially disposed on the rod assembly.
  • the interlocking time delay arms are sequentially movable to permit a potential purchaser to manipulate an item of merchandise beyond the time delay arms for removal from the display hook.
  • the interlocking time delay arms include a guide tube slidingly disposed on the rod assembly, a first arm rotatably mounted on the guide tube and a second arm disposed outwardly from the first arm and fixedly mounted on the guide tube.
  • the first arm is positioned on the rod assembly a preselected distance outwardly from the display structure and is spaced-apart from the second arm sufficiently to permit at least one of the items of merchandise to be disposed between the first arm and the second arm.
  • One of the guide tube and the first arm has a circumferentially extending groove formed therein and the other one of the guide tube and the first arm has a key formed thereon that cooperates with the groove to permit limited rotation between the guide tube and the first arm.
  • the display hook includes a rod assembly adapted for mounting to a display structure and a time delay assembly medially disposed on the rod assembly.
  • the rod assembly includes a guide rod and a support rod vertically spaced-apart from the guide rod a predetermined distance.
  • the time delay assembly includes a guide tube slidingly disposed on the guide rod, a first arm rotatably mounted on the guide tube and a second arm spaced outwardly from the first arm and fixedly mounted on the guide tube.
  • One of the guide tube and the first arm has a circumferentially extending groove formed therein, while the other has a key formed thereon that is received within the groove to permit relative rotation between the first arm and the guide tube.
  • the present invention is a method for preventing the rapid removal of a plurality of items of merchandise from a display hook.
  • the method includes providing a display hook for supporting items of merchandise on a display structure, the display hook including a rod assembly and a time delay assembly medially disposed on the rod assembly, the time delay assembly including at least a first arm and a second arm spaced outwardly from the first arm.
  • the method further includes positioning the time delay assembly on the rod assembly of the display hook with the first arm disposed outwardly of the items of merchandise in an initial orientation.
  • the method further includes rotating the first arm relative to the second arm about a longitudinal axis defined by the rod assembly sufficiently to position at least one of the items of merchandise on the rod assembly between the first arm and the outwardly spaced second arm.
  • the method further includes rotating the first arm relative to the second arm about the longitudinal axis back to the initial orientation.
  • the method further includes rotating the second arm relative to the first arm about the longitudinal axis sufficiently to position the at least one item of merchandise on the rod assembly outwardly of the second arm.
  • the method further includes removing the at least one item of merchandise from the rod assembly of the display hook.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un crochet d'étalage de marchandises (10) destiné à former support pour des articles (12) et incluant un ensemble tige (20) et des bras à verrouillage temporisé (30) disposés sur l'ensemble tige. Les bras à verrouillage temporisé peuvent être déplacés de manière séquentielle pour permettre à un acheteur potentiel de manipuler un article au-dessus des bras afin de détacher l'article du crochet d'étalage. Les bras à verrouillage temporisé comportent un tube de guidage (32) disposé coulissant sur l'ensemble tige, un premier bras (34) étant monté rotatif sur le tube de guidage et un second bras (36), espacé du premier bras, étant monté fixe sur le tube de guidage. Le premier bras est suffisamment espacé du second bras pour permettre de disposer au moins un des articles entre lesdits bras. Le premier bras présente une rainure s'étendant de manière circonférentielle (38B) et le tube de guidage présente une clavette (38A) qui coopère avec la rainure pour permettre une rotation limitée entre le tube de guidage et le premier bras.
