Abstract:
A security device for use with an item of merchandise may include a rigid housing adapted for insertion into a pocket of the item, an alarm disposed within the housing, and a sensor mounted to the housing. The sensor may be configured to indicate whether the security device is outside the pocket of the item, whereby an indication that the security device is outside the pocket of the item causes the alarm to generate a human-perceptible alert.

Claim (Index 19):
A security device for use with an item of merchandise, the security device comprising:\n a housing having a top cover and a bottom cover; a printed circuit board mounted within the housing; an aural alarm mounted on the printed circuit board; a transformer mounted on the printed circuit board and operatively coupled to the aural alarm to power the aural alarm; a visual alarm mounted on the printed circuit board; a battery mounted on the printed circuit board and operatively coupled to the transformer and the visual alarm, the battery being adapted to generate sufficient charge to power both the aural alarm and the visual alarm; a trigger module mounted on the printed circuit board, the trigger module including a casing and a spring-loaded trigger enclosed within the casing, the spring-loaded trigger closing an electrical switch when the spring is in a compressed condition and causing the electrical switch to open when the spring is in a relaxed condition, the trigger retracting into the casing when the spring is in the compressed condition and extending out from the casing when the spring is in the relaxed condition; an integrated circuit mounted on the printed circuit board and operatively coupled to the electrical switch to cause activation of the aural alarm and the visual alarm in response to closing or opening of the electrical switch; an arming mechanism movable between an arm position and a disarm position, the integrated circuit being capable of causing activation of the aural alarm and the visual alarm only when the arming mechanism is in the arm position; a locking mechanism disposed within the housing and having a first condition in which the locking mechanism locks the arming mechanism in the arm position and a second condition in which the locking mechanism releases the arming mechanism to move from the arm position to the disarm position; and an electronic article surveillance (EAS) component disposed within the housing and configured to activate a security gate alarm when the device is within a predefined proximity of a security gate.
