Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having an aperture includes a lock mechanism having a lock cylinder and a cam member. The lock cylinder is configured to be rotated by a key. The cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder. The cam member has a slot. The security apparatus also includes an engagement mechanism having a first finger, a second finger, and a plunger. The first finger and the second finger are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger and has a cam follower positioned within the slot of the cam member. As the cam member is rotated by the lock cylinder, the plunger pushes the first finger and the second finger apart from each other to engage the portable electronic device.

Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device includes a force-transmission member having a length, a first end, and a second end. A lock head is coupled to the first end of the force-transmission member, the lock head configured to selectively engage the electronic device and movable by the force-transmission member between a locked position, in which the lock head is secured to the electronic device, and an unlocked position, in which the lock head is unsecured from the electronic device. An actuator assembly is spaced a distance from the lock head along the length of the force-transmission member. The actuator assembly includes a body and a manual actuator pivotally coupled to the body, the manual actuator being pivotable from a first position to a second position to move the movable member relative to the body such that the lock head moves from the unlocked position to the locked position.

The clamp lock includes a spring configured to bias the clamping member toward the second position. The slot includes an opening at an outer periphery of the body and an inner channel located inward of the opening. The opening has a first height and the inner channel has a second height that is larger than the first height.

Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having an aperture includes a lock mechanism including a lock cylinder and a cam member. The cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder. The security apparatus additionally includes an engagement mechanism including a first finger, a second finger, and a plunger. The first finger and the second finger are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger and has a cam follower configured to engage the cam member. As the cam member is rotated by the lock cylinder, the plunger pushes the first finger and the second finger apart from each other to engage the portable electronic device. The lock cylinder defines a rotational axis and the cam member is rotatable about the rotational axis.

Abstract: A security anchor for a portable electronic device having an opening includes a body configured to be engaged by a lock head of a lock, a first engagement element extending from the body and configured to be inserted into the opening of the portable electronic device, a second engagement element extending from the body and configured to be inserted into the opening of the portable electronic device, and a plunger positioned between the first engagement element and the second engagement element. The plunger is linearly slidable and subsequently rotated relative to the body to expand apart the first and second engagement elements.

Abstract: A security apparatus includes a lock body, an actuator assembly supported by the lock body, the actuator assembly having an engagement feature configured to rotate between a first position and a second position. The security apparatus further includes a lock tip removably coupled to the lock body. The lock tip is movable by the actuator assembly between a locked position, in which the lock tip is secured to the portable electronic device, and an unlocked position, in which the lock tip is unsecured from the portable electronic device. Rotating the engagement feature from the second position to the first position locks the lock tip to the lock body and concurrently locks the lock tip to the portable electronic device. Rotating the engagement feature from the first position to the second position unlocks the lock tip from the lock body and concurrently unlocks the lock tip from the portable electronic device.

Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having a slot includes a body having an insertable portion configured to be inserted into the slot of the portable electronic device, and a boss extending from the insertable portion and positioned outside of the slot. The boss is configured to attach to a lock head. The security apparatus also includes a wedge supported at least partially within the insertable portion of the body. The wedge is movable relative to the insertable portion between a first position, in which the wedge extends out of the insertable portion and is configured to engage a surface of the portable electronic device that defines the slot, and a second position, in which the wedge is retracted relative to the first position and is configured to disengage the surface of the portable electronic device that defines the slot.
