Patent Application
20240141701
The present application relates to the technical field of electronic tags, and in particular to a novel spider electronic tag.
An anti-theft tag, which belongs to electronic article surveillance (EAS) technology, is used to identify an anti-theft soft tag pasted on the commodity or an anti-theft hard tag (reusable) nailed on the clothing, shoes and hats by a detection system placed at an entrance, an exit or a cash register of a supermarket. When a tag that has not been processed by a cashier (the soft tag has not been degaussed or the hard tag has not been removed) passes through the system, the system will issue an alarm to draw the staffs attention.
The spider electronic tag is a kind of anti-theft tag, which is generally used for anti-theft of boxes or irregular commodities. For example, a utility model patent No. CN201521039378.9 discloses an electronic string bag tag which includes a take-up device and a string bag woven by or with a wire, where the string bag has an opening, and a circuit board is arranged inside the take-up device. The electronic string bag tag is characterized in that an end of the wire forms a closing end which is connected to an interior of the take-up device, and the take-up device can retract or release the wire to tighten or open the opening of the string bag. The wire and the circuit on the circuit board form a loop to form an anti-theft alarm circuit. The braided wire of the string bag forms the closing end and only one signal loop is formed between a bag body of the string bag, the closing end and the circuit board, so that an alarm is caused no matter where the wire is cut. This product has a simple structure and an excellent anti-theft performance.
However, a locking structure of the take-up device of the above electronic string bag tag has a complex structure and many parts, and the production thereof is difficult and costly.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution to overcome the above disadvantages.
An object of the present application is to provide a novel spider electronic tag which can effectively solve the above technical problems.
In order to achieve the object of the present application, the following technical solution is provided:

Preferably, a rope-passing hole for the steel wire rope to pass through is respectively defined at the bottom of the rotating ratchet member, at the take-up reel, at the coil spring storage box, at the bottom of the housing and at the bottom of the base.
Compared with the conventional technology, the present application has the following beneficial effects:
1. According to the present application, the take-up assembly is locked by the cooperation of the leaf spring and the rotating ratchet member, which has good anti-theft performance; the leaf spring still will not disengage with the rotating ratchet member even in the case of falling or being struck by a foreign object, which can achieve a good anti-striking effect; in addition, the present application has the advantages of simple structure, convenient production and processing, low cost, and easy popularization and application.
