CA 2186268

Several apparatus embodiments (Figs 1-24) which inhibit the theft of equipment (5) such as personal computers is disclosed. The equipment typically includes an external wall (10) provided with a specially designed, approximately rectan- gular slot (15) having preselected dimensions. An attachment mechanism (particularly Figure 17) in- cludes a housing (800) for a spindle (840) having a first portion (350) rotatable within the housing, a shaft (840) extending outwardly from the hous- ing (800), and a crossmember (845) at the end of the shaft having peripheral dimensions closely conforming to the internal dimensions of the slot. The spindle (840) is rotated 90 degrees to mis- align the crossmember (845) with the slot or slid to attach the attachment mechanism (800) rigidly to thexternal wall (10). A cable (30) is secured to the housing (800) and to an immovable object so that the equipment (5) can not be stolen.

Cette invention concerne plusieurs modes de réalisation d'appareils (Fig. 1 à 24) visant à empêcher le vol de matériel (5) tel que des ordinateurs personnels. Ce système comprend notamment une paroi externe (10) dotée d'une fente (15) spécialement conçue, de forme approximativement rectangulaire et de dimensions prédéterminées. Un mécanisme de fixation (Fig. 17, notamment) comprend un boîtier (800) prévu pour une broche (840) dont une première partie (350) tourne à l'intérieur dudit boîtier, un bras (840) dépassant du boîtier (800), ainsi qu'un élément transversal (845) situé à l'extrémité du bras et ayant des dimensions à sa périphérie sensiblement égales aux dimensions internes de la fente. La broche (840) peut tourner sur 90 ~ afin de rompre l'alignement entre l'élément transversal (845) et la fente, ou encore coulisser afin de fixer de façon rigide le mécanisme de fixation (800) à la paroi externe (10). Un câble (30) est attaché au boîtier (800) ainsi qu'à un objet inamovible de manière à ce que l'on ne puisse voler le matériel (5).
