WO2012101300A1 - System for preventing a memory unit from being read or stolen - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a system for preventing a memory unit or similar from being read or stolen, said system comprising an opening and closing mechanism and a fastening system including a hoop that prevents the connection thereof. The hoop is closed using a closing or locking system. The system also includes a ring of very strong wire for securing same to a stationary point.

Description

 TITLE: SYSTEM TO PREVENT THE READING OR THEFT OF A MEMORY UNIT

SECTOR OF THE TECHNIQUE: Security-anti-theft

 STATE OF THE ART: At present the use of memories to store information is the most common. We all have memory cards or USB memories in which information is stored. If you want to protect the content of the information, it is necessary to resort to specific programs that are not for the normal user since they are expensive and complicated to install and maintain. On the other hand, due to their small size, they are easy to lose or stolen. The need to solve this problem arises. At present, there is no system in the market or registered that physically avoids reading without authorization or the theft of these small devices.

EXPLANATION:

 Technical Problem: It would therefore be necessary to obtain a method that allows the user to protect their data without the need of computer programs, and in turn, to have the possibility of anchoring or tying the device to a point, so that the reading or displacement only can make the person who has the key or key.

 Solution to the technical problem: Starting from a memory unit, any, it is intended to prevent it from being connected to its socket for reading, Figure. For this purpose, an arc is arranged to prevent the connection, Figure 2. This arc is closed by means of a locking or locking system, Figure 3. Only the holder of the key or key can open, Figure 4. On the other hand, by arranging a ring of a very strong thread in the shape of Figure 5, it can be fixed to a point, and can only be removed with a key or key, by opening the bow.

 DETAILED EXHIBITION: An e / empto realization, among many and applicable to different systems, would be the following: A USB memory device that exists in the market, composed of a body and a plug. When removing the plug it can be plugged in. If you do not remove the plug, you can not. Figures 6 and 7. There is a set of wheels similar to those of a safe in the back, where there is only one possible combination for its opening, Figure 8. They are identified on the outside and on the inside there are some

SUBMISSION SHEET (Rule 26) cuts as an opening guide. Figure 9, the wheels are fixed to the structure so that they turn freely.

 Inside the wheels there is a piece that goes into all the grooves, only when the combination is aligned, allowing the advance, and therefore the possibility of turning the bow and removing the cap. avoid seeing the order of the wheels, and prevent it from being easily disassembled, Figure 11. If the plug and the housing are joined with a high resistance element, for example a steel cable, the plug position removed, allows surround an object, then close it, leaving the unit anchored to a point, Figure 12.

Claims

 CLAIMS:  1- SYSTEM TO PREVENT THE READING OR THEFT OF A MEMORY UNIT or similar, which contains a physical device that keeps the object connected, regardless of the nature, geometry, design, mechanism or material used.  2- SYSTEM TO PREVENT THE READING OR THEFT OF A MEMORY UNIT or similar, which contains a system to be anchored to an element and prevent its theft, regardless of the nature, geometry, design, mechanism or material used. 3- SYSTEM TO PREVENT THE READING OR THEFT OF A MEMORY UNIT or similar, which contains an opening and closing system by combination or key, so that only the user can release the anchor, move and connect the device to its socket, indistinctly of the nature, geometry, design, mechanism or material used.
