Abstract

See full text

An anti-theft device for securing an article of merchandise against unauthorized removal from a display counter. The anti-theft device comprises a latch plate and a quick-release interface. The latch plate is configured to selectively couple to the quick-release interface. A latch is disposed within the quick-release interface. The latch locks the latch plate relative to the quick-release interface. A plurality of retaining arms is configured to receive and retain an article of merchandise. The retaining arms cannot be adjusted while the latch plate is locked relative to the quick-release interface. The quick-release interface has an access port providing access to the latch using a tool. The tool can be used to operate the latch into a position in which the latch disengages the latch plate, thereby releasing the latch plate from the quick-release interface.
