Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sealed system, or to be used as a sealed, in order to mark objects intended to be identified in time.
  • Seals of this type are used for example to control the routing and / or storage of products or materials.
  • a application relates in particular to nuclear materials, which require security monitoring and / or important controls.
  • type E seal There is a model of seal, called “type E seal”, or type “Copper-Brass”, which is used in large numbers (around 20,000 pieces per year) by the XVII General Directorate of Energy (Euratom Safeguards) from Luxembourg and also by the influence Internationale de Atomic Energy of Vienna (IAEA).
  • This commercial seal is simple and inexpensive. It is composed of two capsules, one in copper and the other in brass.
  • Figures 1A and 1B represent the copper part 2 in external (FIG. 1A) and internal view (FIG. 1B).
  • Figures 2A and 2B show the brass part 4 in external view ( Figure 2A) and internal ( Figure 2B).
  • the identity of this seal is obtained at using a drop of tin 6 placed inside the capsules, then scratched randomly to get a unique 8 design.
  • One of the capsules, which is snapped onto the other, in order to close the seal when it is use contains 2 holes 10, 12 allowing to pass the 2 ends of a metallic or non-metallic wire, multi-stranded or not, which will link together the elements that must be sealed. For example, in in the case of a door or cabinet being locked, this thread runs through handles. The two ends of the wire are then knotted together, inside the brass capsule 4, and the seal is closed.
  • the seal is used, and its identity is checked, in the manner next.
  • the identity of the two capsules is photographed then stored digitally in a database. It is an archiving step. An identification number, engraved on the capsule containing the identity, is also archived as number of sealed, correlated with the two identities.
  • the identification number is correlated with data such as: installation date, place ...
  • a inspector cuts wire 14 and reports the seal to a place of analysis (neighborhood general) where it will be opened by cutting. His two identities are photographed and correlated, by optical overlay, with identities that are archived.
  • Such a seal is of low cost, and its implementation is simple. However, its control presents a certain difficulty, as well as a cost Student.
  • the cost of such a seal is around 140 Euros.
  • the identification technique is not very easy either. including photographing identities and correlating them to the external number of the seal. All these long operations require handling which can be sources of errors.
  • the invention seeks to solve these problems by proposing a sealed, to connect together elements to be sealed, comprising a first and second capsules to be sealed, as well as means electronic, to be placed in at least one of the capsules, capable of contain an identification of the seal and searchable remotely.
  • Closing means make it possible to close the two capsules together.
  • means make it possible to check whether the seal has been opened or not, after closing.
  • closing means irreversible, or single use; their opening is impossible without them destroy or damage or mark them, at least partially.
  • the seal cannot be opened without destruction or without damage or without marking, at least partially, of the means of closing.
  • the capsules are provided with mechanical indicators rupture or deformation.
  • the tin identities which are found in the capsules, are replaced by electronic identities, or "Codes", also placed inside the capsules.
  • the identity of the seal can be read by active reading means.
  • Electronic means are preferably passive, do not thus requiring no power supply or battery, which reduces the size in the capsule where they are installed.
  • the electronic means can be of the transponder type passive electronics, containing a digital code.
  • plastic capsules improves efficiency and reading distance.
  • a material having plastic deformation characteristics Preferably, a material having plastic deformation characteristics. Indeed an attempt opening a seal made of such a material most often results by the deformation of part or another of the seal, and in particular of its means of closure. Such a deformation is easily visible on a plastic deformation material, leaving at least one mark.
  • a particularly well suited material is based on ABS, at least minus 25%.
  • the information data can then be stored and / or transferred to a computer for storage and / or analysis.
  • Figures 4A-4C and 5A-5D show various views of two capsules 20, 30 of a seal according to the invention.
  • the two capsules 20, 30 are approximately shaped cylindrical and include means for closing the seal during its use. They are for example provided to fit one with the other or to snap one onto the other, and are therefore fitted with a system, or means, of snap-fitting or interlocking, or of means for clipping them together (closing by clipping).
  • the assembly In the closed position, the assembly is also sealed, and cannot be open without destruction or deformation or marking, at less partial, sealed.
  • Each capsule may have a location 24, 34 for there introduce an electronic identification device 23, 33.
  • a seal according to the invention can also work with a single electronic device identification, in which case only one location is provided for mounting such a device, in only one of the two capsules.
  • the closing means or latching essentially comprise one, or, tenon (s) 25-1, 25-2, 25-3, 25-4 located at the periphery of one of the capsules (FIG. 4A), and one or more corresponding mortise (s) 35-1, 35-2, 35-3, 35-4 located at the periphery of the other capsule (FIG. 5A).
  • each tenon 25 - i male part of the click system

  • a substantially cylindrical crown 38 can also be formed inside this capsule 30. As illustrated in FIG. 5B, this crown extends in a direction parallel to the axis of symmetry cylindrical of the capsule, at least up to the height of the groove 36.
  • the tenons are inserted into the mortises, and the ring 22 is introduced between the two cylindrical walls 31 and 38.
  • the posts are completely inserted into the mortises, and the rib 26 is introduced into the groove 36.
  • the tenons can only be extracted from the mortise by forcing the click system. The same goes for rib 26 which cannot be extracted from the throat 36 only by forcing.
  • the latching means of the device according to the invention and in particular the combination of tenons and mortises, on the one hand, and the rib 26 and throat 36, on the other hand, constitute evidence of rupture or deformation in the event of an attempt to open the seal.
  • a such an attempt indeed results in marks, and / or scratches and / or a break in the latching means, and therefore, in the mode of proposed realization, tenons, and / or mortises and / or rib and / or throat.
