DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURING CARGO ITEMS
First Claim
1. A system enabling detection of unauthorized removal of a cargo item from a cargo claim area, said system comprising:
- a) a locking device attachable to said cargo item;
wherein said locking device comprises a transmitter adapted to transmit data wirelessly, said data being indicative on whether said locking device is locked or not;
b) a key adapted to unlock said locking device;
c) one or more detectors positioned in an manner such that wireless signals transmitted from a plurality of transmitters exiting said cargo claim area are detected at said detectors; and
d) a computing module operatively associated with said detectors, said computing module giving rise to a suitable response in case said computing module determines that data received via said signals is indicative of said locking device being locked.

Abstract
A system enabling detection of unauthorized removal of a cargo item 414 from a cargo claim area 420, said system may comprise: a locking device 100 attachable to cargo item 414, wherein locking device 100 may comprises a transmitter 110 adapted to transmit data wirelessly, said data being indicative on whether said locking device is locked or not; a key 170 adapted to unlock said locking device; one or more detectors 424a-d positioned in an manner such that wireless signals transmitted from a plurality of transmitters exiting cargo claim area 420 are detected at detectors 424a-d; and a computing module 430 operatively associated with detectors 424a-d. Computing module 430 may give rise to a suitable response in case computing module 430 determines that data received via said signals is indicative of locking device 100 being locked.

16. A method for detecting unauthorized removal of a cargo item from a cargo claim area, said method comprising the steps of:
-
transmitting signals from a transmitter of a locking device, said signals carrying data indicating whether said locking device is locked or not;
detecting at detectors said signals transmitted from locking devices exiting said cargo claim area; and
triggering a suitable response from a computing module in case signals detected at said detectors carry data indicating that said locking device is in locked state. - View Dependent Claims (2, 17, 18, 19, 20)
