Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device includes a lock mechanism. A lock cylinder is configured to be rotated by a key. A cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder between an engaged position and a disengaged position. A first finger and a second finger are configured to be inserted into an aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger. A user input member coupled to the plunger is selectively actuatable to move the plunger relative to the first and second fingers. When the cam member is in the engaged position, the user input member is precluded from moving from a first position to a second position. When the cam member is in the disengaged position, the user input member is capable of moving from the first position to the second position.

Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having an aperture includes a lock mechanism including a lock cylinder and a cam member. The cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder. The security apparatus additionally includes an engagement mechanism including a first finger, a second finger, and a plunger. The first finger and the second finger are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger and has a cam follower configured to engage the cam member. As the cam member is rotated by the lock cylinder, the plunger pushes the first finger and the second finger apart from each other to engage the portable electronic device. The lock cylinder defines a rotational axis and the cam member is rotatable about the rotational axis.

Abstract: A docking system for a portable electronic device includes a dock having a housing and a lock mechanism supported by the housing. The housing is configured to couple to the portable electronic device. The lock mechanism is operable to secure the portable electronic device to the housing. The docking system also includes a wireless key operable to communicate with the dock and an actuator coupled to the lock mechanism. The actuator is operable to disengage the lock mechanism to release the portable electronic device from the housing when the wireless key communicates with the dock.

Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having an aperture includes a lock mechanism having a lock cylinder and a cam member. The lock cylinder is configured to be rotated by a key. The cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder. The cam member has a slot. The security apparatus also includes an engagement mechanism having a first finger, a second finger, and a plunger. The first finger and the second finger are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger and has a cam follower positioned within the slot of the cam member. As the cam member is rotated by the lock cylinder, the plunger pushes the first finger and the second finger apart from each other to engage the portable electronic device.

Abstract: A clamp lock includes a body, a lock mechanism coupled to the body, and a clamping member supported by the body and operatively coupled to the lock mechanism. The clamping member and body cooperatively define a slot. The clamping member is movable relative to the body by actuating the lock mechanism from a first position, in which the clamping member is configured to engage the part of the portable electronic device, to a second position, in which the clamping member is configured to disengage the portable electronic device. The clamp lock includes a spring configured to bias the clamping member toward the second position. The slot includes an opening at an outer periphery of the body and an inner channel located inward of the opening. The opening has a first height and the inner channel has a second height that is larger than the first height.

Abstract: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device includes a force-transmission member having a length, a first end, and a second end. A lock head is coupled to the first end of the force-transmission member, the lock head configured to selectively engage the electronic device and movable by the force-transmission member between a locked position, in which the lock head is secured to the electronic device, and an unlocked position, in which the lock head is unsecured from the electronic device. An actuator assembly is spaced a distance from the lock head along the length of the force-transmission member. The actuator assembly includes a body and a manual actuator pivotally coupled to the body, the manual actuator being pivotable from a first position to a second position to move the movable member relative to the body such that the lock head moves from the unlocked position to the locked position.
