Abstract:
A device for making an antitheft link between two objects, the device comprisingan envelope (20) of heat-shrink plastics material, implemented in the form of a sleeve whose walls are brought together locally along a common generator line (23) to form a main compartment (24) and an auxiliary compartment (25), the main compartment being open at both ends and being designed to envelop a first one (100, 100') of the two objects to be connected together, and the auxiliary compartment (25) having an elongate pin (26) disposed therein, which pin extends parallel to said common generator line;a wall (31) provided on the other object (30, 30', 30"",30'""), which wall has formed therein a narrow longitudinal slot (32) opening out at one of its ends, said slot being dimensioned firstly to enable the common generator line (23) of the above-mentioned envelope (20) to be inserted therein so that the associated elongate pin (26) is disposed behind the wall (31) and co-operates therewith to provide the link between said other object and the envelope when heat-shrunk onto said first object, and secondly to lock the envelope (20) as inserted in the slot (32) by associated locking means (36, 36') organized to close the open end (34) of said slot; andantitheft means (28, 50) integrated in the envelope (20), and/or at least one of the two objects.
