Abstract

An electronic article surveillance assembly comprises an upstanding housing having a closed ceiling and a floor having a continuous peripheral portion bounding a central floor opening, the housing having an interior cavity communicating with the central floor opening, an EAS marker being disposed in the housing interior cavity, the housing defining a sidewall extending from the ceiling to the continuous peripheral floor portion and tapered to form the housing with a periphery having a V-shaped cross-section. Further provided is, in combination, an electronic article surveillance assembly comprising an upstanding housing having a closed ceiling and a floor having a continuous peripheral portion bounding a central floor opening, the housing having an interior cavity communicating with the central floor opening, an EAS marker being disposed in the housing interior cavity, the housing defining a sidewall extending from the ceiling to the continuous peripheral floor portion and tapered to form the housing with a periphery having a V-shaped cross-section and an article of manufacture, the continuous floor peripheral portion being secured to an exterior surface of the article of manufacture.

Claims (16)

1. An electronic article surveillance assembly comprising an upstanding housing having a closed ceiling and a floor having a continuous peripheral portion bounding a central floor opening, said housing having an interior cavity communicating with said central floor opening, an EAS marker being disposed in said housing interior cavity, said housing defining a sidewall extending from said ceiling to said continuous peripheral floor portion and tapered to form said housing with a periphery having a V-shaped cross-section.

2. The electronic article surveillance assembly claimed in claim 1 , further including a bottom closure member secured to an interior surface of said floor continuous peripheral portion.

3. The electronic article surveillance assembly claimed in claim 2 , further including an adhesive layer disposed on said bottom closure member and said floor continuous peripheral portion.

4. The electronic article surveillance assembly claimed in claim 1 , wherein said continuous floor peripheral portion is of arcuate configuration.

5. The electronic article surveillance assembly claimed in claim 4 , wherein said ceiling is of common arcuate configuration with said continuous floor peripheral portion.

6. The electronic article surveillance assembly claimed in claim 5 , further including a bottom closure member secured to an interior surface of said floor continuous peripheral portion, said bottom closure member being of common arcuate configuration with said continuous floor peripheral portion.

7. The electronic article surveillance assembly claimed in claim 6 , further including an adhesive layer disposed on said bottom closure member and said floor continuous peripheral portion, said adhesive layer being of common arcuate configuration with said continuous floor peripheral portion.

8. In combination:

(a) an electronic article surveillance assembly comprising an upstanding housing having a closed ceiling and a floor having a continuous peripheral portion bounding a central floor opening, said housing having an interior cavity communicating with said central floor opening, an EAS marker being disposed in said housing interior cavity, said housing defining a sidewall extending from said ceiling to said continuous peripheral floor portion and tapered to form said housing with a periphery having a V-shaped cross-section; and
