Title:
A SAFETY BOX FOR STORING PERSONAL VALUABLES, A SAFETY ANCHOR FOR SECURING THE SAFETY BOX AND SAFETY FASTENERS FOR SECURING A VARIETY OF OTHER OBJECTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004016886
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides a box, termed a safety-box, which can be physically attached to a hard-to-move-object and used for safe and convenient storage of personal valuables on beaches and other public or semi-public places. Furthermore, the invention provides a lock for a safety-box, a beach chair comprising a safety-box, a device, termed a safety-anchor, which in a first aspect can be easily installed into the ground but which is very difficult to remove for anyone but the authorised user and consequently can serve as a hard-to-move-object for securing the safety-box or other devices. In another aspect of the invention, the principle behind the safety-anchor is used to provide novel safety-fasteners that can be used to secure a diversity of objects against unauthorised removal. The safety-fasteners of the invention combine the attributes of ordinary fasteners with the ability to be converted into a safety-fastener by any of a number of very simple operations. Fasteners based on the invention can thus be mounted as ordinary fasteners using a variety of standard tools and, once mounting is satisfactory, turned into a safety-fastener that cannot be easily removed by unauthorised persons. Finally the invention provides a special safety-fastener, termed a lock-safety-fastener, which can be used to effectively secure a diversity of objects against unauthorised removal whilst at the same time allowing easy attachment/detachment of the valuable object by the authorised user.
