Security assembly for attachment to an object
First Claim
1. A security device for securing an object, wherein the object defines an object perimeter edge, the security device comprising:
- a housing defining an edge lock configured for positioning proximate the object perimeter edge and a locating gap; and
at least one cable extending from the security device through the locating gap, wherein the locating gap is configured to secure the at least one cable from substantial lateral movement in at least one direction;
wherein the housing further defines a first arm defining the edge lock, a second arm defining a second edge lock, and a third arm defining a third edge lock, wherein each of the edge lock, the second edge lock, and the third edge lock, are configured to engage the object perimeter edge.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a security assembly configured to properly secure articles in a retail environment. In some embodiments, the security assembly is configured to secure cylindrical objects, such as baby formula or coffee cans. Additionally, in some embodiments, the security assembly may be adjustable such that differently sized objects may be secured. In an example embodiment, a security device for securing an object with an object perimeter edge is provided. The security device comprises a housing defining an edge lock configured for positioning proximate the object perimeter edge and a locating gap. The security device also comprises at least one cable extending from the security device through the locating gap. The locating gap is configured to secure the at least one cable from substantial lateral movement in at least one direction.

11. An assembly for securing a generally cylindrical object, wherein the object defines a first side defining a first object perimeter edge, and a second side defining a second object perimeter edge, the assembly comprising:
-
a security device comprising at least one cable extending from the security device; an adapter configured for positioning proximate the first side of the object, the adapter defining a pocket for receiving the security device and an edge lock configured for positioning proximate the first object perimeter edge, wherein the adapter is further configured to guide the at least one cable between the security device and the first object perimeter edge such that the at least one cable remains generally secured proximate the first object perimeter edge when the assembly is secured to the object; and a second adapter configured for positioning proximate the second side of the object, the second adapter defining a second edge lock, configured for positioning, proximate the second object perimeter edge, wherein the adapter is further configured to guide the at least one cable proximate the second side of the object such that the at least one cable remains generally secured proximate the second object perimeter edge when the assembly is secured to the object wherein the adapter comprises a first arm defining the edge lock, a second arm defining a second arm edge lock, and a third arm defining a third arm edge lock, wherein each of the edge lock, the second arm edge lock, and the third arm edge lock are configured to capture the first object perimeter edge, and wherein the second adapter comprises a fourth arm defining the second edge lock, a fifth arm defining a fifth arm edge lock, and a sixth arm defining a sixth arm edge lock, wherein each of the second edge lock, the fifth arm edge lock, and the sixth arm edge lock are configured to capture the second object perimeter edge. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
