Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closing device and a system for closing an article as well as a method for operating a closing device.
  • a conventional security seal is usually made of a wire or a cord, the ends are connected inseparably connected to each other after attachment to the object to be closed, for example by a metal disc.
  • plastic seals have also been frequently used instead of metal seals.
  • a conventional seal is provided with an identification number so that it is not interchangeable, and can only be closed once. Therefore, such seals or seals are not suitable for situations in which a room or a container may possibly be reused several times by authorized persons, e.g. Customs personnel, opened and closed again.
  • safety seal tapes that are glued over a closure of the container or space are not suitable for repeated opening and reclosing.
  • the invention is based on the idea of providing an electromechanical closing device which simultaneously fulfills a sealing function and a lock function.
  • the electromechanical locking device can make unauthorized opening difficult and allow authorized opening.
  • the closing device comprises a housing, a locking mechanism, a control unit for controlling the locking mechanism and a bolt, which can be passed, for example, by closure elements of an object to be closed.
  • the housing comprises a housing body and a receiving area for receiving elements to be joined together.
  • the housing is preferably designed to have at least one of the properties robust, weatherproof, dustproof, vandal resistant, resistant to salt water, gasoline and / or oil and usable over a wide temperature range.
  • the bolt In an unlocked state of the closing device, the bolt is movable so that it can be brought, for example, from an open state in which the bolt is withdrawn from the receiving area and elements to be joined into the receiving area can be brought into a closed state in which the bolt passed through the receiving area.
  • the bolt may traverse the housing body of the closing device at least in the closed state, but preferably also in the open state.
  • the locking mechanism is provided, the is controlled by the control unit and prevents in a closed state of the closing device an opening movement of the bolt.
  • the closed state thus corresponds to a closed or locked state in which a bolt movement is essentially blocked.
  • the security of the closing device can be increased because higher demands can be placed on an authorization process than merely with a key.
  • a person at a remote location can be immediately authorized to operate the capping device by transmitting the required data. This is particularly advantageous when opening the customs. Since in this way no entrainment of a key o.ä. necessary, the safety can be increased.
  • the receiving area may be formed so as to protect the elements to be joined together and the bolt from external access when the closing device is in use. Accordingly, a closure device is provided which offers a good compromise between a simple seal and a high-security lock.
  • the closing device can be opened and closed again, for example by the control unit for controlling the locking mechanism receiving an authorized command.
  • the housing of the closure device has a unique identification number that can not be removed or overwritten.
  • an identification number can be stored in the control unit. This can prevent the closing device from being forcibly removed and replaced by a similar closing device. Since the closing device is usually reusable, higher functionality and greater security can be offered at a reasonable cost.
  • the receiving area of the housing is connected to the housing body and / or formed integrally with the housing body.
  • the receiving area can be completely or partially open on at least one side which runs parallel to the longitudinal direction of the bolt, so that elements to be closed together of an object to be closed can be inserted therein.
  • the receiving area on a rear side of the closing device is substantially open, wherein the back runs parallel to the bolt and may face an object to be closed in use.
  • the receiving area may be substantially closed, for example, on a front side of the closing device facing the open side and on the side surfaces adjacent thereto, the front side and the side surfaces being parallel to the bolt.
  • the receiving area may have one or more side walls that extend parallel to the longitudinal direction of the bolt.
  • the receiving area may comprise three side walls arranged substantially at right angles to one another and running parallel to the pin.

  • the Aufhahme Bachelor is preferably also closed on its upper side, which limits a bolt movement in this direction or on which the bolt abuts in a closed state of the closing device.
  • the upper side may in this case be the side of the receiving region that is perpendicular to the direction of bolt movement and faces the housing body.
  • substantially closed receiving area of the bolt can be better protected in the attached state.
  • the bolt in this case can not be reached laterally or from the front with a bolt cutter or the like.
  • the bolt in the case of a bolt with a round cross-section, the bolt can be enclosed by the receiving region in the longitudinal direction of the bolt at least half of its pin circumference.

This in turn can prevent lateral knocking out of the bolt.
  • the bolt is movable along its length in the housing.
  • the bolt can preferably not be separated from the housing even in the unlocked state, or it can not be pulled out of the housing.
  • the bolt may be configured to be movable back and forth between an open state in which the bolt is retracted from the receiving area to the housing body and a closed state in which the bolt extends through the receiving area. Upwards, the bolt movement may be limited by the upper side of the receiving area and / or the bolt movement downwards may be limited by a securing element which is formed at a certain point of the bolt, for example in the form of a securing ring around the pin circumference.
  • the bolt protrudes on a side of the housing body, which is opposite to the receiving area or not adjacent to the Aufhahme Schl.
  • the bolt may thus have one end which is slidable into the receiving area and another end which protrudes from the housing body and is arranged outside the receiving area.

Therefore, the locking device remains closed when the bolt connection breaks with one or more of the lower bolt parts. In this way, a breaking of the closure device by forcibly pulling or knocking out of the bolt can be prevented.
  • the bolt may have at least one predetermined breaking point, which breaks at greater violence.
  • the predetermined breaking point or the connecting region between the bolt parts can also be arranged in the retracted state of the bolt, ie the open state of the closing device, within the housing body, so that they are not accessible from the outside and protected in the open state.
  • the multi-part bolt may be designed to be uniformly movable in the housing in the intact state along its length, so that the operation of the closing device runs as in a closure device with one-piece bolt.
  • the bolt may be surrounded by the housing body.
  • the housing body may further surround the locking mechanism, the control unit and / or other elements of the closing device.
