An alarmed closable packaging for a container of goods has at least two sections whose edges have closure elements and which, once in contact, completely envelop and seal the container of goods. The multilayer sections have first and second electrically conductive layers with an insulator between. The insulator recovers its thickness after having undergone crushing. Each section has a support with conductive attachments connected to respective conductive layers. Each section has an electronic device attached by the support, an electrode of the electronic device contacting conductive attachments of the support, creating a low continuous voltage on the first electrically conductive layer of each section, with another electrode similarly connected to the second electrically conductive layer. The electronic device transmits a signal to a receiver and records variation of the voltage from impacts or tears of the closable packaging or to an unauthorised removal of the device from its support.

A system for sensing use of a pharmaceutical bottle may include a housing, a sensing plate mechanically coupled to the housing by a flexible expansion member, an activation plate mechanically coupled to the sensing plate, an electronic contact on the housing, an electrical circuit formed by the contact on the housing and the activation plate, an indicator configured to indicate use of the pharmaceutical bottle, a user interface configured to receive user input to control the indicator, and a processor and memory with instruction that when execute by the processor cause the system to determine that the pharmaceutical bottle has been used based on a change in the electrical circuit.

A container having a child resistant lock and an audio device has a bottom, an outer wall, and a neck extending upward from its top. The neck has one or more slots formed by a vertical channel and a slanted channel leading to a seat. The slanted channel has two opposing protuberances where it joins the seat. A lid has a cuff configured to fit over the neck. The inside wall of the cuff has one or more pins complementary to the one or more channels which together form bayonet lock mechanisms. And gasket at the inside top of the cuff seals the container when the bayonet lock mechanisms are engaged and provide an upward bias to the cuff, thereby securing it in place. The outer wall of the cuff and outer wall of the canister lie flush with each other when the bayonet lock mechanisms are engaged. The top of the lid has a removable screen covering a compartment in the lid which houses an audio device. A plurality of apertures in the plate allow sound to emit from the music box.

A tamper evident container includes a container body having walls surrounding a cavity. The walls are composed of a non-electrically conductive material and at least one integrity sensor that is embedded in the non-electrically conductive material. A monitoring circuit is configured to monitor the tamper evident container using the at least one integrity sensor and determine a state-of-health of the tamper evident container.

A tamper-evident closure (101) for a container neck comprises a first portion (105, 106), a second portion (102, 104) comprising a window (103) through which a view of the first portion is visible, a locking mechanism, and an RFID device (107) associated with the first portion (105, 106). The second portion (102, 104) is rotatable relative to the first portion (105, 106) upon first opening of the tamper-evident closure (101) from a first position in which the first and second portions (105, 106; 102, 104) are in a first relative relation and the RFID device (107) is aligned with the window (103) and is readable, to a second position in which the first and second portions (105, 106; 102, 104) are in a second relative relation and the RFID device (107) is masked by the second portion (102, 104) and is not readable.

The present disclosure relates generally to accessories for containers. More specifically, but without limitation, the present disclosure relates to a locking module for a container, for example insulated container, which allows access to store goods, such as delivered goods, but alternately denies access to those who are not intended to have access.

An apparatus and method for secure shipment of goods monitors location and status with multiple sensors embedded in the package of the shipment container. Encryption methods help ensure the shipped goods are authentic, and that the goods were not tampered with during shipment. Information placed in an RFID tag may provide the user with the history of performance during transit to ensure the quality of the goods from the shipment site to the receiving site.

A device for detecting a tampering of a product in a product packaging material. The device comprises a network of sensors integrated into the product packaging material; a microcontroller, the microcontroller configured to detect, by accessing the sensors of the sensor network, the tampering of the product packaging material; and a communication device for relaying information regarding a status of the product packaging material.

The invention relates to a device (100) for sealing a container having a neck, said device comprising: a deformable portion (1) intended to be at least partially arranged inside the neck of the container so as to seal it in a leak tight manner, said portion being capable of deforming elastically when inserted into the neck, said portion comprising a first end intended to be oriented towards the inside of the container, and a radiofrequency identification tag (11), said device being characterised in that it comprises at least one piezoelectric component (10) electrically connected to the tag (11) and arranged inside said deformable portion (1), within a blind recess on the first end side, generating an electric voltage caused by expansion of the deformable portion containing the piezoelectric component when said deformable portion is removed from the neck, said electric voltage being capable of causing a change of state of the radiofrequency identification tag.

The bottle has a neck sealed by a stopper. The safeguarding device (2) comprises a first and a second part (20, 21), the first part (20) being adapted to be integrated in the stopper (1) and the two parts (20, 21) being joined in translation while allowing a limited relative movement of one part with respect to the other when a traction force is applied to the safeguarding device (2) in order to remove said stopper (1) from the neck. According to the invention, the safeguarding device comprises an electrical component (212) disposed so that at least one electrical characteristic of said component is modified during the relative movement of the two parts (20, 21).
