DISPOSITIF ANTIVOL POUR CONTENEURS DE
TRANSPORT
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif antivol pour conteneurs de transport.ANTI-THEFT DEVICE FOR CONTAINERS
TRANSPORT
The present invention relates to an anti-theft device for transport containers.
Il peut convenir à tous les types d'enceintes mobiles utilisées pour l'acheminement des marchandises mais est surtout destiné aux véhicules de transport routier et en particulier aux camions et remorques porte-conteneurs. It can be suitable for all types of mobile enclosures used for the transport of goods but is especially intended for road transport vehicles and in particular for container trucks and trailers.
I1 n'existe actuellement à notre connaissance aucun système antivol efficace adapté aux conteneurs ou camions qui peuvent en général être ouverts assez facilement par simple crochetage d'une serrure ou d'un cadenas, et c'est la raison pour laquelle les vols se multiplient, ce qui a pour effet, outre le préjudice encouru par les entreprises de transport et leurs clients, une croissance constante des primes d'assurances et des frais d'expédition. To our knowledge, there is currently no effective anti-theft system adapted to containers or trucks which can generally be opened quite easily by simply picking a lock or a padlock, and this is the reason why thefts are increasing. , which has the effect, in addition to the damage incurred by transport companies and their customers, of a constant growth in insurance premiums and shipping costs.
Le dispositif selon la présente invention a pour but de remédier à cet état de choses. En effet, il permet, avec un faible investissement, de protéger efficacement les camions ou conteneurs en déclenchant une alarme dissuasive à la moindre tentative d'effraction. The device according to the present invention aims to remedy this state of affairs. Indeed, it allows, with a low investment, to effectively protect trucks or containers by triggering a deterrent alarm at the slightest attempt to break in.
I1 est constitué d'un boîtier amovible venant recouvrir les serrures ou cadenas condamnant la fermeture des portes du conteneur ou de la caisse du camion, ce boîtier, relié à une alarme centrale, étant maintenu en place grâce à un support métallique soudé ou boulonné sur la serrure ou le cadenas et sur lequel il est appliqué au moyen d'aimants permanents de telle manière qu'un ou plusieurs micro-contacts soient actionnés tant que ledit boîtier demeure en place, son retrait, en libérant le ou les micro-contact actionnant 1 'alarme. I1 consists of a removable box covering the locks or padlocks condemning the closing of the container doors or the truck body, this box, connected to a central alarm, being held in place by a welded or bolted metal support on the lock or padlock and to which it is applied by means of permanent magnets in such a way that one or more micro-contacts are actuated as long as said housing remains in place, its removal, by releasing the actuating micro-contact (s) 1 alarm.
Sur les dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatif d'une des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention:
la figure 1 représente en perspective un camion porte conteneur équipé du dispositif antivol,
la figure 2 est le détail A agrandi de la figure précédente, et montre un boîtier de sécurité en place sur un cadenas de condamnation des portes du conteneur,
la figure 3 est une coupe transversale suivant les flèches B-B de la figure 2,
la figure 4 représente un cadenas avec son support sans boîtier de sécurité
et la figure 5 est un schéma synoptique du dispositif dans son ensemble.In the accompanying drawings, given by way of nonlimiting example of one of the embodiments of the subject of the invention:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a container truck equipped with the anti-theft device,
FIG. 2 is the enlarged detail A of the preceding figure, and shows a safety box in place on a padlock for locking the doors of the container,
FIG. 3 is a cross section along the arrows BB of FIG. 2,
Figure 4 shows a padlock with its support without security box
and Figure 5 is a block diagram of the device as a whole.
Le dispositif figures I à 5, est constitué d'un boîtier de sécurité 1 pouvant s'appliquer, grâce à des aimants permanents 2 prévus sur sa face arrière, sur un support métallique 3 soudé sur la serrure ou le cadenas 4 de condamnation de la ou des portes 5 du conteneur 6 ou de la caisse du camion 7. The device in Figures I to 5, consists of a safety box 1 which can be applied, thanks to permanent magnets 2 provided on its rear face, on a metal support 3 welded to the lock or padlock 4 for locking the or the doors 5 of the container 6 or the body of the truck 7.
La face arrière du boîtier de sécurité I comporte un ou plusieurs micro-contacteurs 8 inverseurs agencés de façon à être activés lorsque le boîtier est appliqué sur une surface métallique, et relâchés en fermant un contact lorsqu'il est écarté de ladite surface. The rear face of the safety box I comprises one or more reversing microswitches 8 arranged so as to be activated when the box is applied to a metal surface, and released by closing a contact when it is moved away from said surface.
Un câble électrique 9 multiconducteur souple relie le ou les boîtiers de sécurité 1 à une centrale d'alarme 10 de type connu disposée dans la cabine du camion 7 ou dans un coffret autonome équipé d'une batterie. Chaque boîtier est en outre fixé à un câble en acier ll solidaire du bâti du camion ou de la remorque, les deux câbles pouvant être disposés dans une gaine souple commune. A flexible multi-conductor electric cable 9 connects the safety box or boxes 1 to an alarm center 10 of known type arranged in the cab of the truck 7 or in an autonomous box equipped with a battery. Each housing is further fixed to a steel cable ll secured to the frame of the truck or trailer, the two cables can be arranged in a common flexible sheath.
Les centrales d'alarme les plus courantes sont généralement déclenchées par la fermeture d'un circuit obligatoirement ouvert à la mise en route. The most common alarm centers are generally triggered by the closing of a circuit which must be open at start-up.
C'est la raison pour laquelle les micro-contacteurs 8 comportent des contacts inverseurs aptes à ouvrir un circuit lorsqu'ils sont actionnés et à le fermer lorsqu'ils sont relâchés. Dans ce cas, tous les microcontacteurs sont montés en parallèle sur le même circuit.This is the reason why the microswitches 8 comprise reversing contacts capable of opening a circuit when they are actuated and of closing it when they are released. In this case, all the microswitches are mounted in parallel on the same circuit.
Le câble électrique 9 multiconducteur est choisi de manière à ce qu'une tentative de sectionnement mette en contact les fils raccordés aux micro-contacteurs en fermant ainsi le circuit. En outre, une sécurité positive est assurée par deux fils formant une boucle 12 en étant réunis à l'extrémité du câble électrique, ces deux fils étant disposés dans ce dernier de manière à ne pouvoir être mis en contact en cas de sectionnement. La boucle 12 est normalement sous tension et actionne un relais 13 installé dans la centrale 10 ou à proximité, et fermant un contact déclenchant l'alarme en cas de rupture de la susdite boucle. The multi-conductor electric cable 9 is chosen so that an attempt at sectioning brings the wires connected to the micro-contactors into contact, thereby closing the circuit. In addition, positive security is ensured by two wires forming a loop 12 by being joined at the end of the electric cable, these two wires being arranged in the latter so that they cannot be brought into contact in the event of cutting. The loop 12 is normally energized and actuates a relay 13 installed in the central unit 10 or nearby, and closing a contact triggering the alarm in the event of the aforementioned loop breaking.
Le support métallique 3 comporte un orifice 14 de passage de clé et est fixé sur la serrure ou le cadenas 4 de manière à rendre impossible l'introduction de la clé lorsque le boîtier 1 est en place. Sur les figures jointes, il est soudé sur un cadenas à haute résistance en acier inoxydable. Le support métallique est pourvu d'un rebord périphérique 15 destiné à empêcher tout glissement du boîtier de sécurité 1 sous l'effet des vibrations engendrées lors du transport. The metal support 3 has an orifice 14 for passing the key and is fixed to the lock or padlock 4 so as to make it impossible to introduce the key when the box 1 is in place. In the attached figures, it is welded to a high-strength stainless steel padlock. The metal support is provided with a peripheral flange 15 intended to prevent any sliding of the safety box 1 under the effect of the vibrations generated during transport.
Lorsque le boîtier 1 n'est pas utilisé, il est appliqué sur un support auxiliaire 16 de même forme que le support métallique 3 et fixé sur le bâti du camion ou de la remorque, éventuellement dans un coffret fermant à clé. When the box 1 is not used, it is applied to an auxiliary support 16 of the same shape as the metal support 3 and fixed to the frame of the truck or the trailer, possibly in a lockable box.
La face avant du boîtier de sécurité 1 pourra être équipée d'une diode lumineuse 17 allumée lorsque le système est en service, ce qui présente un effet dissuasif certain pour les candidats à l'effraction. The front face of the safety box 1 may be equipped with a light diode 17 which is lit when the system is in service, which has a certain deterrent effect for candidates for burglary.
La liaison par câble électrique multiconducteur entre le ou les boîtiers de sécurité 1 et la centrale d'alarme 10 peut avantageusement être remplacée par une liaison radio par signaux codés émis par un émetteur miniaturisé alimenté par pile et intégré dans ledit boîtier. Le codage des signaux permettant d'éviter des interférences entre deux installations voisines. The connection by multi-conductor electric cable between the security box (es) 1 and the alarm center 10 can advantageously be replaced by a radio link by coded signals emitted by a miniaturized transmitter powered by battery and integrated in said box. Coding of signals to avoid interference between two neighboring installations.
Le positionnement des divers éléments constitutifs donne à l'objet de l'invention un maximum d'effets utiles qui n'avaient pas été, à ce jour, obtenus par des dispositifs similaires. The positioning of the various constituent elements gives the object of the invention a maximum of useful effects which had not, to date, been obtained by similar devices.
