Abstract

The combination of an article to be monitored and a security system. The article to be monitored has a first component and a second component projecting angularly from the first component. The security system has a base and a cover movable guidingly relative to the base between first and second positions. The cover has a first opening through which the second component projects. The cover defines a receptacle for the first component with the second component projecting through the first opening. The cover has an entry opening which allows a) the second component to be selectively projected through and withdrawn from the first opening and b) the first component to be selectively placed in and removed from the receptacle with the cover in the first position. The base and cover cooperatively prevent c) the second component from being withdrawn from the first opening and d) the first component from being removed from the receptacle with the cover in the second position. The security system further includes a lock assembly which interconnects between the base and cover and is placeable selectively in locked and released states. The lock assembly in the locked state maintains the cover in the second position. The lock assembly in the released state allows the cover to move from the second position into the first position.
