  • the alarm detailed in this document comprises a vibration sensor in the door physically connected to an analog / digital module, the aforementioned system is not suitable for sea containers because the sensor is fixed on the door.
  • the system described by CN 108340874 does not allow to warn if the load is being stolen when the truck is moving because the alarm is outside and the driver is not aware of it.
  • the alarm since the alarm is on the underside of the truck, it can be easily deactivated.
  • CN 108340874 does not detail a wireless connection between the sender and receiver. Since there is a physical connection between the vibration sensor and the analog / digital module, it is not possible to use the system described by CN 108340874 to a tractor unit coupled / uncoupled to a container.

  • the alarm system described in the invention unlike CN 108340874, prevents theft of containers when the truck is running.
  • CN 108340874 details that the alarm is on the underside of the cabin, therefore if the container is violated when the truck is running, the truck driver does not notice the theft.
  • the alarm being outside, can be deactivated or stolen.
  • the described alarm system allows the driver to warn of the theft in the containers when the truck is moving because the alarm is located inside the cab of the truck.
  • the receiver and the alarm are located inside the platform of the tractor unit, specifically hidden in the battery compartment. Since the container with its trailer (not shown in the figures) rests on the platform of the tractor unit, the alarm is not seen by thieves, nor can it be deactivated.
  • the means for attaching the emitter to the container are temporary attachment means, more preferably magnetic means or magnets. In this way, it is a removable alarm system appropriate for maritime containers, that is, when the container is uncoupled from the tractor unit and is shipped for maritime transport, the emitter is removed from the container and attached to another container. to start a new road transport.
