[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a security device for transporting a large amount of cash, precious metal, jewelry, and other expensive items by vehicle, and more specifically, when a vehicle encounters a burglary, the surroundings of the burglary are reported. The present invention relates to a security device for appropriately informing the security authorities and a security device capable of sequentially informing the security authorities of the location of the expensive item even if the expensive item is robbed.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In recent years, burglary cases during transportation of cash by vehicle have occurred frequently, and in most of these burglary cases, the amount of stolen cash is on the order of tens of millions to hundreds of millions of yen. In most of the above cases, the robbers were armed with some weapon, so that if the transporter or guards resisted the criminal in an attempt to prevent the robbery of expensive goods, he would be injured or killed. That could be the worst situation. Therefore, instead of resisting the criminal by armed use, it is possible to lose the intention of the criminal to rob, or to take appropriate measures after the occurrence of the incident, for the transportation of expensive goods by vehicle. There is a need for security devices. However, contrary to the current situation in which robbery cases occur frequently, there are also demands for security costs and simplification of security devices, and it is necessary to develop well-balanced security devices in consideration of various conditions.

On the other hand, the information communication industry has been developing remarkably in recent years, and in particular, communication technology between mobile objects has been dramatically developed. These communication devices are sufficiently miniaturized and simplified, and can be used sufficiently for the development of security devices. In particular, high-value items robbed by transport vehicles or robbers are constantly moving, so communication technology between moving objects can be used for the development of the above-mentioned security devices.

Also, if provided outside the seat and near the driver's seat, the operation switch can be turned on or off using hands or feet. As this seat switch, an alternate type switch can be used. Of course, without providing an operation switch, the security device can be activated simultaneously with the mooring of the article, or the security device can be activated by a communication means from a management facility outside the vehicle. Figure 2 is a diagram for illustrating the operation switches provided in the seat, can be understood and this only action switch between the seated start time t ₁ to leave time t ₂ is turned ON is. Warning label: By sticking a sticker label “with alarm device” on the outside of each trunk case or vehicle, the intention of the criminal to be robbed can be lost, and the robbery of goods can be prevented. Transmitter: If the transmitter is attached to the goods in advance or installed in the goods storage container, even if the goods are robbed, a communication-type position confirmation system using communication facilities such as artificial satellites can be used. It is possible to grasp the current location of the robbed goods and respond appropriately to the incident. Timer: By providing timers at various points of the maintenance device of the present invention, for example, the alarm means and the communication type position confirmation system can be activated at a desired set time. FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining from the removal of the article storage trunk to the alarm operation and the operation of the communication-type position confirmation system. (A) in the figure shows a signal of destruction or breakage of the mooring means by the sensing means (shown by ON-OFF), and (B) shows ON-OFF of the operation of the alarm means. Yes, (C) shows ON-OFF of the operation of the communication type position confirmation system.
