Abstract:
1. A security device for a handheld electronic device comprising: a body having a first side, a second side, and an upper surface; a first arm extending upwardly from the first side of the body and having a distal end, wherein the distal end of the first arm has a first retention hook extending substantially horizontally from the distal end of the first arm above the plane of the upper surface of the body; a second arm extending upwardly from the second side of the body and having a distal end, wherein the distal end of the second arm has a second retention hook extending substantially horizontally from the distal end of the second arm above the plane of the upper surface of the body; a draw pin extending through the first side and the second side of the housing body for moving the first arm and the second arm simultaneously along an X-axis relative to the first side and the second side of the body, wherein the draw pin comprises a first threaded end and second threaded end, wherein the first threaded end has a thread pattern that is counter rotational to the thread pattern of the second threaded end; a leveling plate located between the first arm and the second arm and proximate to the upper surface of the body, wherein the leveling plate is connected to the body using one or more leveling screws to allow the leveling plate to move independently of the body along a Z-axis relative to the upper surface of the body; an alarm sensor on the leveling plate that sets when placed in contact with a surface of the handheld electronic device, wherein the alarm sensor can activate when the alarm sensor loses contact with the handheld electronic device; a charging port on the body for charging the handheld electronic device; and a tether connected to the body, wherein the tether further comprises wiring for monitoring the status of the alarm sensor.
