Abstract

A wraparound enclosure has two sections, joined by a hinged strap member, which telescopingly engage when applied around an article to form a right rectangular parallelepiped. A microwave detectable tag is secured on the interior to one wall of the enclosure. The sections are interlocked in the closed condition by three pairs of latches and strikes, two on each of three sides of the enclosure. Typically the enclosure may be installed around a container holding a cassette of magnetic recording tape. For authorized removal of the cassette and its container from a protected area such as a store, the enclosure is removed by insertion in a releasing mechanism having means for grasping one section while applying spring pressure against the enclosed container through an opening in the grasped section. A lever, upon being depressed, actuates a series of rocker plates with fingers to simultaneously engage and release all of the latches whereupon the enclosure springs open.
