20180374326 · 2018-12-27 ·

A theft-proof packaging system includes a product package having a clear compartment configured to encapsulate a product that is pneumatically vacuumized below a surrounding environment. A pressure sensor assembly is located within the compartment, the pressure sensor assembly including a pressure sensor, a power source electrically connected to the pressure sensor, and a transmitter electrically connected to the power source. The transmitter is configured to send a signal and a receiving unit located outside the compartment of the product package and disposed remote from the product package receives said signal and sounds an alarm. The pressure sensor assembly is configured to detect a change in pressure inside the compartment and then send the signal to the receiving unit activating the alarm. A passive RFID tag is located within the compartment and configured to be detected when it passes through a walk-through scanner activating a second alarm.

Apparatus and method for container interface operations
12060210 · 2024-08-13 · ·

A transport container is provided. The transport container includes a body having a base, a cover, an opening, and at least one side wall all defining a cavity therebetween. The transport container also includes an electronic controller. The electronic controller is configured to determine a geographic route from a carrier destination location to a destination location based on received carrier transfer information and received transportation information. The electronic controller is also configured to display the carrier transfer information on a user interface when the transport container is located at a carrier initial location. The electronic controller is further configured to deploy the transport container when the transport container is located at the carrier initial location.

TAMPER-PROOF CASE SYSTEMS AND METHODS

The disclosed systems and methods relate to improved tamper-proof cases for securely storing and shipping products. In one example, a tamper-proof case comprises a unibody frame constructed from a single piece of material. The unibody frame can comprise six sides and include one or more living hinges that allow the unibody frame to fold into a completed case. Various sides can be configured to receive panels to give the crate additional structure, rigidity, and security. Additionally, the frame can comprise a split-top lid with a self-locking mechanism with a tamper-proof pull tab for opening the lid.

CONTAINER DOOR ELECTRONIC SEAL SYSTEM
20180350209 · 2018-12-06 · ·

A container door electronic seal system for sensing abnormal opening/closing of a container door comprising a retainer, on which a locking rod installed outside the container door is seated, and a handle hatch, which binds or unbinds a handle seated on the retainer, according to the present disclosure, comprises: an electronic seal, which binds the retainer and the handle hatch, and which wirelessly transmits the abnormal opening/closing information of the container door to the outside; a first connector electrically extending from the electronic seal; a second connector, which is installed on the container door, and which is electrically connected to the first connector; and a first sensing unit electrically connected to the second connector to sense whether the handle hatch is opened/closed. According to the present disclosure, a sensing unit, which senses abnormal opening/closing of the container door, is installed on the container door and is recycled, thereby making it possible to implement an electronic seal system that can sense abnormal opening/closing of the container door with little costs.

Tamper evident cargo container seal bolt lock
10145146 · 2018-12-04 · ·

Systems and methods for a tamper-evident cargo container seal bolt lock are disclosed herein. The device can include a receiving member, a conductive bolt member adapted to be snap-locked into the receiving member, and a plastic encapsulant which tethers the bolt member to the receiving member. The encapsulant can contain an electrically conductive medium, such as a wire, which runs from the receiving member to the second end of the bolt. A sensory circuit disposed within the receiving member can be configured to sense whether the circuit has been interrupted (e.g., if the bolt has been cut). In the event of an interruption, the circuit can record the present time and/or date in memory. An RFID transponder disposed within the encapsulant or the receiving member can then transmit the recorded date/time to an RFID interrogator if a dispute subsequently arises as to when the lock had been broken.

Tool holder preventing being dismantled from a tool
10138040 · 2018-11-27 · ·

A tool holder includes first and second holding members incorporable to form a holding space. The first holding member includes at least one restraining protrusion defining a first restraining side with a first hooking structure having a first height and a second restraining side. The second holding member includes at least one catching slot including a first limiting structure having a second height and a second limiting structure. The tool holder has a first arrangement in which the at least one first restraining protrusion engages in the at least one first catching slot, the first hooking structure engaging with the first limiting structure, as well as the second restraining side and the second limiting structure having a gap tolerance therebetween not greater than the first and second heights.

STORAGE CONTAINER WITH INVENTORY CONTROL
20180309935 · 2018-10-25 · ·

Systems and methods of the invention relate to managing an inventory of items within a storage container. A storage container can house one or more items for distribution among one or more users such as, for instance, employees. The storage container discussed herein provides authentication of a user, tracking of the inventory each user removes or returns, video/image capture of user during access of the storage container, wireless tracking of items housed within the storage container, among others.

AIR CARGO CONTAINER AND CURTAIN FOR THE SAME

A curtain closure for the cargo opening of an air cargo container and the air cargo containers that have the same. The curtain closures include a fabric layer, and at least one of an insulating layer or a reinforcing layer attached to the inside of the fabric layer.

ECO-FRIENDLY DETACHABLE CONTAINER/VAULT
20240294325 · 2024-09-05 ·

An eco-friendly detachable container including a base assembly having a metallic plate attached to a support panel; telescopic corner posts; side panels; a top panel; a first door assembly; a second door assembly; a locking mechanism. The detachable container is vertically adjustable. The support pane, the telescopic corner posts, the side panels, the top panel, the first door assembly, the second door assembly, and the locking mechanism are made entirely from recycled plastic, virgin plastic, or regrind plastic. The metallic plate is made of a recycled aluminum.

EAS device with wrapping splitter for objects with wrapping
10066422 · 2018-09-04 ·

An electronic article surveillance device with an electronics housing and base attaches to an article to be protected. The housing and base have connecting interfaces which act together to attach the housing to the base. The housing and base have matching apertures. A switch and a wrapping splitter extend from the housing through the apertures. The switch detects when the device is attached to an object and the wrapping splitter splits the wrapping to prevent the wrapping from being used to defeat the switch. Electronics monitor the status of the switch. The apparatus may employ a restraining mechanism to prevent the operation of the wrapping splitter unless the housing is attached to the base. The housing and base may be attached to each other by a manually movable latch, which may also actuate the wrapping splitter. Electronics in the apparatus receive and send signals.
