A method of loading a flexible enclosure, and the flexible enclosure. The enclosure has a floor, a sealable port, and a top enclosure. The top enclosure has an opening that is sealingly closable with an airtight closure. The method includes the steps of selecting a parking location for the enclosure, and positioning the enclosure over the parking location. Equipment, such as a vehicle is loaded in the enclosure. The enclosure is sealed, and the internal atmosphere of the enclosure is modified, such as lowering the oxygen content of the interior atmosphere.

Enclosure system for storage

An apparatus comprising an inert gas generator having an outlet and an inlet, and a secure enclosure having an outlet and an inlet. The outlet of the secure enclosure is connected to the inlet of the inert gas generator and the secure enclosure supplies inert gas enriched air having a first oxygen content percentage from the outlet of the secure enclosure to the inlet of the inert gas generator. The inert gas generator is configured to operate on the inert gas enriched air having a first oxygen content percentage to form inert gas enriched air having a second oxygen content percentage, wherein the second oxygen content percentage is substantially lower than the first oxygen content percentage. The inert gas generator may be a membrane inert gas generator. The inert gas generator may be a pressure swing adsorption inert gas generator. The inert gas may be nitrogen.

Apparatus and method for reducing oxygen and increasing nitrogen in secure enclosure

A cargo shipment security system includes a flexible body configured to completely enclose and contain cargo within an internal environment having a predetermined pressure. The system includes a sealable vacuum port disposed on and through the body and configured to couple with a vacuum source for creating a vacuum within the internal environment. The system includes one or more sealable ports disposed on and through the body, positioned to cause a turbulent flow through a predetermined volume of the internal environment of the body when the vacuum source is applied at the vacuum port and fluid is caused to enter the internal environment. The system includes one or more detectors positioned to intercept fluid flowing from the internal environment to an external environment outside the body, in such a way as to enable detection of the presence of a substance exiting from the internal environment.

Cargo shipment security enclosure, method, system, and method of making

An apparatus including an open box structure having a top, a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side, an inner chamber bound by the top, first, second, third, and fourth sides, and an opening leading to the inner chamber, is disclosed. The first side may be opposite the second side. The apparatus may include a first strap having a first end attached to the first side of the open box structure and a second end. The first strap may be of sufficient length so that the second end of the first strap can be pulled across the opening of the open box structure and attached to the second side of the open box structure, when the open box structure is fully extended. The first strap and/or a second similar strap may be used to secure the open box structure and freight within the open box structure to a pallet.

Freight enclosure

A comprehensive and effective system at detecting unauthorized hazardous materials such as explosives potentially placed by terrorists in cargo or freight, such as air cargo, is disclosed. The system is cost effective and is non-disruptive to shippers of cargo. The system provided in one or more embodiments is capable of virtually guaranteeing the continuous security and integrity of cargo or freight during the storage and transit process. The system provides a combination of advanced x-ray technology and packaging technology. A method is disclosed comprising the steps of applying X-rays with an X-ray machine to freight and placing a cover on the freight. The step of placing the cover on the freight may include locking the cover on the freight with a lock. The lock may include an electronic memory, which is programmed with a unique code, which identifies the freight and indicates whether it has been tampered with.

Cargo security method and apparatus

A freight protection apparatus is disclosed which includes an enclosure for protecting freight shaped in the from of an open box, having an opening, first, second, third, and fourth sides, and a top portion, which enclose a chamber. The enclosure may have attached to it first and second straps which can be used to securely attach the enclosure to freight or to a collection of freight. The first and second straps each may have a first end which is in the form of a loop and a second end which is attached to an attachment device. The first and second straps can be connected together to attach the enclosure to the freight. First and second metal plates may be provided to further prevent the enclosure from being separated from the collection of freight. Locks with unique serial numbers may be provided for locking the first and second straps together. A method is disclosed comprising placing such an enclosure over a collection freight, and securing said enclosure to said freight.

Protective freight enclosure

An apparatus is provided comprised of a digital camera having a button, a processor connected to the digital camera, and a telecommunications line connected to the processor. When the button of the digital camera is pressed the digital camera creates a digital image and sends the digital image to the processor. The processor sends the digital image out to the telecommunications line. The processor may automatically send the digital image out or may wait for inputs from a user before it sends the digital image out. The processor can be connected to an interactive device such as a computer keyboard or computer mouse. The processor is adaptable to receive a user input in the form of an electronic mailing address and the processor can send the digital image out on the telecommunications line to the electronic mailing address. The processor produces a first screen on a computer monitor. The first screen has a field for entering the electronic mailing address, a field for entering a message, and a field for the digital image. The processor preferably sends the digital image to the E-mail address in postcard format with a geographical indication of where its from.
