Security seal
The present invention discloses a security seal with a seal base with at least one locking projection and a seal head connected to the seal base with at least one blocking tab, whereby each blocking tab is movably connected to the seal head via at least one hinge element, together with a safety closure with a first closure part and a second closure part, which can be moved back and forth between an open position and a closed position relative to the first closure part, wherein the first closure part has a seating on which the seal base of a security seal can be engaged so that, when the second closure part is in the closed position, at least one blocking tab of the security seal at least partially overlaps the second closure part on the side of the second closure part opposite the first closure part, and additionally, a security container with a container tub, a lid and a safety closure, wherein either the first or second closure part is arranged on either the container tub or the lid, respectively.
TAMPER EVIDENT CARGO CONTAINER SEAL BOLT LOCK
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.
TAMPER EVIDENT CARGO CONTAINER SEAL BOLT LOCK
Systems and methods for a tamper-evident cargo container seal bolt lock are disclosed herein. The device can include a bolt member having a conductive medium running the axial length of the bolt, and a receiving member for locking the bolt into place. A battery-driven sensory circuit including a memory means, a processor, and a timing circuit can be disposed within the receiving member such that a continuous circuit is formed from one circuit pin over the conductive medium through the length of the bolt and back to a second pin. The sensory circuit is 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 time and/or date in memory. This information can then be transmitted to an RFID reader/interrogator if a dispute arises as to when the lock had been broken.
Tamper-proof electronic bolt-seal
A tamper-proof bolt-seal incorporating a unique identification tamper detection sensor that cannot be restored or duplicated after the bolt. The sensor employs a resistive sensor wire embedded in the bolt. The resistive sensor wire has a randomized length to enable a unique resistive value for that sensor. The resistive value of the sensor is combined with an electronic identification code to create the unique seal identification for the tamper detection sensor, therefore giving the bolt a seal identification that is unique and that cannot be restored or duplicated.
Radio-frequency identification fitting ring assembly
A radio-frequency identification fitting ring assembly includes a fitting ring having a ring portion and two sheet portions that respectively extend outward from a same side of the ring portion. The sheet portions are clamped to be in contact with each other and respectively have a through hole. A fixing member passes through the through holes and has a first expanded portion and a second expanded portion on two ends of the fixing member, respectively, to restrict the two sheet portions. A radio-frequency identification member is disposed on the first expanded portion. A part of the radio-frequency identification member is exposed out of the first expanded portion. When the present invention is used, the fitting ring fits around a hose clamp for fixing, and the radio-frequency identification member could be read or written by a read/write device for marking or identifying an information related to the hose clamp later.
ANTI-REVERSE SEALING LOCK
An anti-reverse sealing lock includes a transparent housing having a passage with an opening in a top side of the transparent housing. A locking block is mounted in the passage and includes a locking ring and an anti-reverse member mounted in the passage. The locking ring includes a locking ring hole having an inclined groove receiving a C-shaped ring. The anti-reverse member includes a through-hole. A latch rod includes an insertion section having a first stepped groove and a second stepped groove. The latch rod extends through the opening, the locking ring hole, and the through-hole. The C-shaped ring is retained in the first stepped groove. A peripheral edge of the through-hole at an end of the anti-reverse member abuts against an end wall of the second stepped groove when the latch rod moves in a removal direction, preventing removal of the latch rod.
WIRELESS SECURITY FOR FREIGHT CONTAINER SEALS
Systems and methods can secure freight container seals using electronic sensors. A hardened sensor clamp housing can include one or more sensing portals. The sensor clamp housing can receive a bolt seal through each of the sensing portals. One or more seal sensors may be positioned proximate to the sensing portals to sense a physical characteristic of the inserted bolt seal. This characteristic may be electrical, optical, magnetic, or so forth. The seal sensors can generate an electrical signal associated with cutting or tampering with the inserted bolt seal. The electrical signal can be coupled to a sensor clamp module operable to determine a tamper state of the bolt seal in response to the associated electrical signal. The determined tamper state can be communicated via a sensor clamp wireless module to a container controller or communications gateway.

The resistive value of the sensor is combined with an electronic identification code to create the unique seal identification for the tamper detection sensor, therefore giving the bolt a seal identification that is unique and that cannot be restored or duplicated.
WIRELESSLY READABLE BOLT SEAL ASSEMBLY
A wirelessly readable bolt seal assembly including a seal portion including an wireless communication module located within a housing, a pin portion including a shaft, the pin portion being fixedly connected to the wireless communication module and a cap portion arranged for selectable and non-removable mechanical and wirelessly readable locking engagement with the pin portion, the seal portion and the cap portion being cooperative to provide a wirelessly readable locking indication to a remote receiver upon non-removable locking engagement of the seal portion and the cap portion and thereafter.
