Modular manual lift dispenser security systems and methods for assembling, manufacturing and/or utilizing said security systems

摘要

Modular manual lift dispenser security systems and methods store and dispense at least one retail product. The systems and methods have a dispenser body having a floor and walls extending above the floor, wherein the walls of the dispenser body define an interior of the dispenser body that is sized to receive one or more retail products. Further, the systems and methods have a locking lid assembly slidably connected to a top edge of each side wall of the dispenser body via at least one fastener and a pusher paddle located within the interior of the dispenser body, wherein the pusher paddle is spring-loaded and configured to move one or more retail products towards the front wall of the dispenser body. Still further, the systems and methods have a first opening between a lip of the front wall of the dispenser body and a front edge of the locking lid assembly that is located adjacent to the front wall of the dispenser body, wherein the first opening is sized such that a leading retail product is passable through the opening between the lip of the front wall and the front edge of the locking lid assembly. Moreover, the systems and methods have a recess formed in the floor of the dispenser body and a lift slot formed in the front wall of the dispenser body, wherein the recess and lift slot are at least one of sized and shaped such that a leading retail product is accessible through the recess and lift slot.

主权项

1. A modular manual lift dispenser security system for storing and dispensing at least one retail product, the system comprising:
a dispenser body having a floor and walls extending above the floor, wherein the walls comprise a front wall and a back wall facing each other and at least two side walls facing each other, wherein the walls of the dispenser body define an interior of the dispenser body that is sized or shaped to receive one or more retail products, and further wherein the front wall extends from the floor at an angle away from the back wall; a pusher paddle located within the interior of the dispenser body, wherein the pusher paddle is spring-loaded and configured to move one or more retail products towards the front wall of the dispenser body when the one or more retail products are positioned within the interior of the dispenser body; a locking lid assembly at least connected to a top edge of each side wall of the dispenser body via at least one fastener, wherein the top edge of each side wall is located opposite with respect to the floor of the dispenser body, wherein the locking lid assembly is slidable from a first position to at least one second position; and a lock assembly provided within the locking lid assembly, wherein the locking lid assembly is slidable from the first position to the second position when the lock assembly is unlocked and further wherein the locking lid assembly is stationary in the first position or second position when the lock assembly is locked, wherein access to the interior of the dispenser body is prevented when the locking lid assembly is located in the first position, wherein a first opening is provided between a lip of the front wall of the dispenser body and the front edge of the locking lid assembly when the locking lid assembly is located in the second position, wherein the lip of the front wall is located opposite with respect to the floor of the dispenser, and further wherein the first opening is sized such that a leading retail product, adjacent to the front wall of the dispenser body, is passable through the first opening between the lip of the front wall and the front edge of the locking lid assembly from the interior of the dispenser body to an exterior environment when at least the retail product is positioned within the interior of the dispenser body, and further wherein the lock assembly comprises slidable lock latches and springs that force the slidable lock latches outward with respect to side walls of the lock assembly through slots formed in the side walls of the lock assembly.
