摘要

An anti-theft apparatus in which a case for an anti-theft subject is formed by a lid body coupled to a box body via a hinge. An inserting member guided by a guide provided in the case is inserted from an insertion port at a desired position of the case in order to prevent the case from being opened. The inserting member is provided with a retaining hook which is pressed back against a restoring force during insertion of the inserting member, and the case is provided with an engaging portion with which the retaining hook forms a locking relation upon complete insertion of the inserting member. A desired number of retaining hooks are provided on a line in a direction of inserting the inserting member, and the retaining hook partially employs a metal which is operable to be absorbed by a magnet. The inserting member is provided with a stopper for inhibiting the retaining hook from contacting an inner surface of the case during the disengaging procedure.
