ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, the burglar-proof jewelry case has a showcase with a front panel, a solid rear panel, two opposing end panels, a glass top panel, and at least one shelf therein. Jewelry is displayed on the shelf which is hingedly connected to the rear panel, and is spaced apart and parallel with the top panel. A solenoid is connected to the shelf and the showcase is mounted on a cabinet. The cabinet has a partially covered steel chamber with a curved opening. When the solenoid is energized, the shelf swings downwardly and any jewelry sitting on the shelf falls into the chamber and becomes unreachable by a thief. In another embodiment, the showcase may have multiple shelves where the shelves are connected to one another by cables. A cable stop is connected to one of the cables and holds the shelves in place. The cable stop is held in place by a solenoid. When the solenoid is energized, the cable stop is released and moves upwardly. In response, the shelves fall successively downwardly and any jewelry sitting on the shelves drops into the curved opening of the steel chamber, unreachable by a thief.
