Electric anti-theft label

The present invention relates to an electric anti-theft tag. After a brushless motor is energized, a wound stator in the motor generates an electromagnetic field to drive a magnetic rotor inside the anti-theft tag to rotate and unlock. The locking mechanism comprises: a lock core, a conical steel bowl on the top of the lock core, an annular magnetic rotor fixed to the outer shell of the lock core, and a spring at the bottom of the lock core. When the electric unlocking device is triggered, after the brushless motor is energized, the wound stator in the motor generates a rotating electromagnetic field, which drives the annular magnetic rotor located at the center of the magnetic field to rotate circumferentially. Since the lock core cannot rotate circumferentially, the movement of the protrusion and the cam portion drives the lock core to move upward, and then compresses the cam to drive the lock core to move downward and compress the spring. When the protrusion moves to a position close to the wave crest, the lock core moves downward to the unlocking position against the lower positioning seat and unlocks. When the locking mechanism leaves the electric unlocking device or is turned off, the power and magnetism are lost, the lock core is reset by the spring, and the protrusion naturally slides to the wave trough of the cam portion, driving the annular magnetic rotor to reset.
