Adjustable dual loop cable security device
First Claim
1. A security device structured for attachment to an object, the security device comprising:
- a housing;
a cable defining first and second ends that are each rigidly anchored within the housing; and
a rotatable assembly supported within the housing, wherein the rotatable assembly further comprises a capture portion adapted to engage the cable between the first and second ends such that the cable penetrates through the rotatable assembly and the capture portion to define a first loop between the capture portion and the first end and a second loop between the capture portion and the second end, and wherein rotation of the rotatable assembly operates to tighten the first loop and the second loop;
wherein the first and second ends of the cable are anchored within the housing such that the rotatable assembly rotates relative to the first and second ends.

Abstract
Various embodiments of the invention may be directed to a security device comprising a housing, a rotatable assembly, a locking assembly, and a cable. The rotatable assembly may include a plurality of locking teeth, a spool, and an engagement portion configured to facilitate rotation the rotatable assembly. The locking assembly may include biasing elements configured to apply a biasing force so that the locking assembly and the rotatable assembly may be configured in a locked position. Further, the locking assembly may include magnetically attractive elements configured to counteract the biasing force when a specifically configured key is applied to the housing of the security device. The security device may further include a security element, an alarm, and other components.

16. A security device structured for attachment to an object, the security device comprising:
-
a housing defining a cavity and a perimeter rim extending at least partly around the cavity; a cable extending at least partly within the cavity and proximate the perimeter rim, the cable defining first and second ends that are each rigidly anchored within the housing; and a rotatable assembly supported within the housing, wherein the rotatable assembly further comprises a capture portion adapted to engage the cable between the first and second ends such that the cable penetrates through the rotatable assembly and the capture portion to define a first loop between the capture portion and the first end and a second loop between the capture portion and the second end, and wherein rotation of the rotatable assembly operates to tighten the first loop and the second loop; wherein the first and second ends of the cable are anchored within the housing such that the rotatable assembly rotates relative to the first and second ends. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)
