Abstract
The invention is an anti-theft covering system that can surround an object and make cutting that object inefficient and time consuming. Using flexible, durable, high-heat resistant outer covering and hardened, stranded, metal cabling segments, oriented parallel to one another, and inside the outer covering, the invention makes cutting through it and whatever it covers both inefficient and time consuming.
Claims21
An anti-theft covering system comprising:
- a flexible, heat-resistant top outer covering which faces a covered item;
- a flexible heat resistant bottom outer covering which faces away from the covered item;
- and
- more than one hardened, metal layer segments contained within the top and bottom outer covering and oriented parallel to one another, wherein adjacent to a first metal layer segment is a second metal layer segment, the first metal layer segment and the second metal layer segment are configured to move laterally and vertically independent of each other in a plane parallel to a cutting blade.
