Abstract
A pen support rack for securing pens and preventing unauthorized access comprises a support member defining a rack body having a base, a trunk, and a plurality of branches and an integrated fingerprint scanner. Each branch includes a locking loop for receiving the body of a conventional pen, with its clip secured over the loop so that the pen hangs from the locking loop. Each locking loop is operative to selectively lock a pen inside through operation of an integrated electromagnet. Thus when an authorized user seeks to secure a pen to the pen support rack or remove one from the pen support rack, the user would place his finger on the fingerprint scanner. If the fingerprint is accepted by the fingerprint scanner, a signal is sent to the microcontroller causing it to toggle the provision of electricity to the electromagnets on the locking loops.
