Abstract: An anti-theft device for securing a computer or office equipment component to a work surface. The device is adjustable for use with different sizes of components, and includes a base having first and second sections that can be moved relative to each other. First and second arms extend from the base to receive the equipment component to be secured therebetween. The device includes a generally U-shaped clamping member having an intermediate restraining bar for engaging the office equipment component and first and second parallel arms extending from the restraining member. The first and second parallel arms of the clamping member are telescopically engaged with the first and second arms, respectively, of the base. Locking means associated with the first parallel arms permit the restraining bar to be selectively locked into one of a number of possible positions relative to the base, wherein the equipment component can be clamped between the base and the restraining bar.

Abstract: An anti-theft device for securing a computer or office equipment component to a work surface. The device is adjustable for use with different sizes of components, and includes a generally U-shaped base member having an intermediate base frame and first and second parallel arms extending from the base frame and spaced apart to receive the equipment component to be secured therebetween. The base frame includes a base plate having a plurality of securing holes for receiving securing means to secure the base member to the support surface. The device includes a generally U-shaped clamping member having an intermediate clamp plate for engaging the office equipment component and first and second parallel arms extending from the clamp plate. The first and second parallel arms of one member are telescopically engaged with the first and second parallel arms, respectively, of the other member such that the base plate and clamp plate are opposed.

Abstract: A cash drawer movably mounted in a housing between open and closed positions and yieldingly urged toward its open position by resilient rods adjustably mounted in the housing. A latch hook releasably holds the drawer in its closed position, and a power operated device is used alternatively with a manually operated mechanism to move the latch hook in a direction to release the drawer for opening movements. The manually operated mechanism includes a latch hook engaging portion for positively locking the latch hook against drawer releasing movement, when desired. Drawer supporting slide rails are tilted to a degree which provides for substantially constant velocity of opening movement of the drawer, and a yielding friction element engages the drawer to stop opening movement of the drawer at a given position of said opening movement.
