Description

The utility model relates to a storage with a hardware-software complex designed to control the integrity of the portable storage enclosure, activating protective mechanisms for influencing the contents of the storage in case of unauthorized access.

The prior art [patent GB 2411274 A, publ. August 24, 2005] a hardware-software complex for ensuring the safety of a container for carrying valuables is known. The complex consists of a microprocessor, a power source, a timer and an accelerometer. The timer starts when the container is armed (closing the lid) and stops when it is disarmed (opening the container lid). After the set time has elapsed, the system for marking the contents of the container is activated. Using the accelerometer allows you to pause the timer, i.e. a container in a stationary position is most at risk of unauthorized access.

The disadvantage of this complex is that security control is carried out according to one parameter - a timer. Another disadvantage is the lack of feedback between the control processor and the marking system. Destruction of the control processor will allow unauthorized access to the contents of the repository.

The technical result achieved by this utility model is to analyze additional parameters that determine the presence of external influences that threaten the integrity of the storage enclosure.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the storage with a hardware-software complex for ensuring the integrity of the case, consisting of a complex control module based on a microcontroller; sensors for monitoring the presence of external influences that threaten the integrity of the case; an interface conversion module for switching with external devices of the complex, such as an actuator for marking the contents of the store, a radio receiver for remote activation of the actuator, and an interface module for providing access to the contents of the store.

In FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of the proposed storage with a hardware-software complex to ensure the integrity of the housing.

The storage proposed in this utility model with a hardware-software complex consists of a portable storage (7) and elements of a software-hardware complex located inside it, namely: a complex control module based on a microcontroller (1), sensors for monitoring the presence of external influences that threaten the integrity of the case , (2) and interface conversion module (3) for switching with devices. Such devices are:

- executive device for marking the contents of the store (5),

- a radio receiver for remote activation of an actuator (4),

- an interface module to provide access to the contents of the repository (6).

In this case, the elements (7), (2), (3) of the hardware-software complex are mounted on a single platform (printed circuit board), the other devices (4), (5), (6) of the hardware-software complex are switched by switching connectors and electrical wires.

The radio receiver in the complex allows you to remotely activate the storage protection mechanisms. The presence of constant feedback between the control module of the complex and the executive device for marking the contents of the store allows you to activate the protective mechanisms of the complex even when the control module is destroyed.

The complex control module (1) carries out telemetry from sensors (2). The following parameters are transmitted as telemetry from the sensors:

- position of the storage lid (open / closed);

- ambient temperature;

- relative humidity of the environment;

- integrity of the storage enclosure;

- opening / closing times of the storage lid;

- acceleration of the movement of the store.

The combination of these parameters allows you to unambiguously decide on an attempt to unauthorized entry into the store.

Arming of the complex takes place automatically at the moment of closing the storage lid. Disarming the complex occurs after receiving a command from the interface module (6), the function of which is to ensure correct access to the storage.

From the moment the storage is armed and until the storage is disarmed, the complex management module (1) carries out constant two-way communication with the executive device for marking the contents of the storage (5). This construction of the complex allows you to track the health of the protective elements of the storage and activate them even if the control module of the complex fails.

To enable remote activation of the actuator for marking the contents of the storage (5), a radio receiver (4) is present in the complex. Upon receipt of a radio signal containing an activation command, the radio receiver issues the necessary commands to the complex control module (1), followed by activation of the executive device for marking the contents of the store (5).

The hardware-software complex for the correct operation of all elements is integrated by mounting the complex control module (1), sensors for monitoring the presence of external influences that threaten the integrity of the case (2) and an interface conversion module (3) on a single platform (printed circuit board). The remaining elements of the complex are located inside the storage in places most fully providing their functionality, and are connected to the main platform by means of electric wires and communication connectors.

Claims (1)
