Problems solved by technology

Similarly, it is known for thieves to empty all the items suspended from a hook into a suitable container and smuggle the removed articles out of a store.
This is particularly a problem with high value goods, such as razor blades, pharmaceuticals, cigarettes and the like.
Considering the value of a clerk's time, such a security system may cost more in terms of personnel time than the money it saves in reducing theft.
On the other hand, if the panel is easily moved out of the way, or if the manipulations needed for moving the panel out of the way are readily apparent from inspection, then the panel has little value as a securi

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]The present invention pertains to security cases employed in point of sale merchandising.[0002]In self-service retail establishments, such as drug stores, grocery stores and the like, articles are usually displayed for sale on racks consisting of vertically spaced shelves on which the articles are arranged in stacks.

In this way, a person who wished to do so could very quickly and easily remove a large number of articles at one time. It is known for thieves to “sweep” a shelf with their arm, collecting the items into a purse, bag or coat very quickly and exit a store, without drawing attention to themselves. Similarly, it is kn...
