Definitions

  • the invention relates to a physicochemical process of marking or destruction intended in particular for the degradation or the legal identification of documents of value whose nature, constitution or function are of interest for possible counterfeiters or clandestine users, and more particularly of desirable documents or products, such as, without limitation, all blank media or not, paper money, check books, identity cards, credit cards, magnetic or optical media, microfilms and microfiches, when these are placed in a security enclosure (container, suitcase, vehicle, vault, etc.), fitted with any anti-theft device, in bulk or in bundles or wrapped packages.
  • a security enclosure container, suitcase, vehicle, vault, etc.
  • the invention also applies to the degradation or destruction of archive documents which must remain secret or of products such as pharmaceutical drugs or dangerous products.
  • German patent application DE-A-3 025 853 describes a process in which valuable documents are impregnated with a marking liquid housed in at least one reservoir contained in a protective enclosure.
  • the liquid is ejected by the shock wave caused by the deflagration of a pyrotechnic charge triggered by theft detection means or attempted break-in.
  • This prior document also describes a device for implementing this method.
  • the indelible marking of documents acts by removal of material, preferably by perforation and this locating means is constituted by at least one projectile shooting device, capable of perforate all the documents in a guard stack in the container and arranged perpendicular to the firing axis.
  • the marking means by removing material using a shooting projectile pose a certain number of problems and in particular that of adjusting the shooting power as a function of the nature and the quantity. of documents kept in the container. It was noted that in the absence of a certain vigilance, there was a risk with too powerful ammunition of damaging the wall of the container when fired and of causing an accident.
  • the marking means by removing only material does not give the certainty that the functions written in memory in certain media: magnetic, photographic or electronic, are deleted. Indeed, in the case of credit cards with magnetic stripe or microprocessor, computer discs, microfilms or microfiches or even banknotes, the functional part remains usable or valid even after a partial removal of material.
  • the invention as claimed provides for a method of marking and / or destroying documents of value, contained in a protective enclosure or safety transport, in which a pyrotechnic charge is opened. packaging and simultaneous impregnation of the documents is caused by a destruction or marking liquid housed in one or more tanks contained in the protective enclosure, so as to make the documents unusable or legally identifiable, the liquid being ejected by the shock wave caused by the deflagration of a pyrotechnic charge triggered by a means of theft detection or attempted break-in.
  • partial or total cutting of all the documents is caused to improve the impregnation and, simultaneously with the partial cutting forward, documents separated from one another by a momentary vibratory phenomenon are opened, or the tanks by cutting backwards where a line of weakness has been prepared drawing a kind of longitudinal nozzle, while the reverberation of the rear shock wave on the bottom of the reservoir (s) ejects through the nozzle, under the combined action of the reverberation and the elastic deformation of the walls of the reservoir (s), the liquid in these tanks.
  • the filler is a rectilinear hollow filler with a cap.
  • the tank is cylindrical in shape, placed along the pyrotechnic chain, in a horizontal position and has a longitudinal notch in the shape of an inverted V placed so as to receive the cap of the hollow charge and constituting a line of weakness which, under the action of the rear shock wave forms a nozzle through which the liquid is ejected during the operation of the device.
  • the degradation process of the invention acts in a very short period of time, in a precise order thanks to the direct propagation of a shock wave towards the front of the device first, then towards the rear then and finally by its reverberation in the form of an echo, inside a cylindrical volume.
  • the forward action caused by the deflagration has the primary effect of cutting along a precise line the packaging of a package and then causing inside a removal of material in the documents, as well as a momentary vibrational phenomenon , which separates all the documents from each other.
  • the liquid is directed powerfully during the period of vibration between each of the faces of the documents, thus ensuring their complete marking or their destruction by chemical action. This action occurs in the same way, regardless of the respective position of the documents relative to the tank.
  • the tank can be made of plastic or metallic material.
  • the transport container comprises a movable and adjustable interlayer and a wedge of cellular foam to keep the documents vertical, their upper part being maintained at the same level.
  • the external dimensions of the transport container are preferably identical to those of the receptacle for the pyrotechnic cover and the nesting of one inside the other is advantageously such that it allows the documents to be presented vertically with their edges, perpendicular to the load. hollow, separated from this load by a small space not exceeding 5 mm.
  • the transport container preferably fits into the receptacle of the pyrotechnic cover when the safety enclosure is closed, the latter being kept closed in particular during the entire duration of safety transportation.
  • the chemical used renders the documents transported unusable by the suppression of their proper functions (deteriorated magnetic tracks, short-circuited microprocessors, dissolved photographic gelatin) or by indelible marking (check books, banknotes).
  • the exact nature of the product placed in the tank is dictated by the composition and the nature of the documents transported as well as by the intended purpose, marking or destruction.
  • the echo 3 penetrates inside the tank 6 and causes an imbalance of the physiological structures ques of the liquid 5 which is then ejected through the opening 11 in the form of a nozzle under the combined action of the vibratory phenomenon 3, the reverberation 4 on the bottom of the tank and the deformation 14 of the walls of the tank 6, exerting a additional pressure on its contents 5.
  • the transport container 28 is inscribed in the receptacle of the pyrotechnic cover 8 when the safety enclosure is closed, by means of the locks visible in FIG. 3.
  • the safety enclosure is kept closed during safety transportation.
  • Two tanks 6 are placed side by side above the transport tank 28.
  • the documents are preferably presented vertically with their edge perpendicular to the hollow charge 12, and separated from this charge by a small space preferably less than 5 mm.
