STORAGE DEVICE
A storing device with a storage space for storing objects that are especially liable to be stolen has a closing means (4), which is movable between an open position and a closed position closing the storage space, a locking means (5) which is settable between a locked position and an unlocked position for locking and releasing, respectively, the closing means (4) in a closed position, and a staining system (6) which is arranged in the storage space and adapted, in case of an attempted theft, to stain the objects stored in the storage space. The staining system (6) has a propellant source (7) which is arranged, when actuated, to expel a puff of propellant to a dye sprayer (8) which is connected to the propellant source (7) and contains a batch of dye to spray the batch of dye into the storage space when receiving this puff of propellant. The dye sprayer (8) is connected to the propellant source (7) via a valve body (12) which has an inlet (14) to which the propellant source (7) is connected, a first outlet (15) to which the dye sprayer (8) is connected, and a second outlet (16) which opens into the storage space. A valve element is movably arranged in the valve body (12) and connected to the locking means in such a manner that the propellant source via the valve body and the valve element is connected only to the first outlet (15) when the locking means (5) is in its locked position, and only to the second outlet (16) when the locking means (5) is in its unlocked position.
