Security device for electric appliances

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim as my invention: 1.
An electrical appliance security device having an open condition and a closed condition for retaining a plug to an electrical cord, comprising: a base closure member for receiving the plug when the security device is in the open condition; an opposed cover closure member which interfaces with the base closure member to form a plug retaining chamber when the security device is in the closed condition; port means for permitting the electrical cord to extend out of the plug retaining chamber; and severable latch means for securing the closure members together when the security device is in the closed condition, which must be severed to permit the closure members to open and release the cord.
2.
The security device of claim 1, wherein the severable latch means further comprises: post means extending from one of the closure members toward the other cover closure member; and aperture means in the other closure member for receiving the post means when the security device in in the closed condition.
3.
The security device of claim 2, wherein the post means further comprises a cap means on the end thereof having an overhanging peripheral portion extending therefrom for engaging the aperture means and holding the closure members together when the security device is in the closed condition, which when severed from the post means permits the closure members to open into the open condition.
4.
The security device of claim 3, wherein the cap means is larger than the aperture means.
5.
The security device of claim 4, wherein the cap means is cone shaped to facilitate passing through the aperture means.
6.
The security device of claim 4, wherein the cap means is arrows shaped to facilitate passing through the aperture means.
7.
The security device of claim 3, wherein the overhanging peripheral portion of the cap means guides the severing when the cap means are severed.
8.
The security device of claim 7, wherein the post means has a groove proximate the cap means for defining where the cap means is severed from the post means
