Abstract
This invention provides an antitheft system comprising an antitheft gate 2 installed in the vicinity of an exit of a store, and an alarm unit 1 attached to a commodity. The gate 2 has incorporated therein a signal generator 21 for producing a notifying signal, and an alarm device 22 capable of producing an alarm. The alarm unit 1 comprises an electronic buzzer 11, a receiving antenna 15 for receiving the notifying signal from the signal generator 21 of the gate 2, and a control circuit 17 for operating the buzzer 11 upon the antenna 15 receiving the notifying signal. The alarm device 22 of the gate 2 comprises an alarm producing circuit 225 capable of producing an alarm, a receiving antenna 221 for receiving electromagnetic waves generated by the buzzer 11 by operating the buzzer 11, and a control circuit 224 for operating the alarm producing circuit 225 upon the antenna 221 receiving the electromagnetic waves. The construction described renders the alarm unit 1 compact.
