Abstract:
An improved monitoring and securing device is provided. Example embodiments provide a monitoring and securing device that includes a fastening system with an elongation and compression mechanism that allows it to be adapted to different topographies of the surface to which they are fastened and are designed to secure two irregular elements to form a connection. Thus, the improved monitoring and securing device can be simultaneously fastened to, for example, one right door and one left door that close to form a connection that is uneven in depth, while monitoring related events such as installation and removal of the monitoring and securing device, opening and closing of the movable entity's locking mechanism and doors, and other events.

Claim (Index 1):
A monitoring and securing device having at least two ends, a first end for attaching to a first surface on a mobile vehicle, a second end for attaching to a second surface of the mobile vehicle, the first and the second surfaces configured to be closed to form a connection to seal a cargo carrying area, comprising:\n a housing; a battery; a fastening mechanism, comprising:\n a plurality of fasteners, wherein at least a first fastener is configured to be attachable to the first surface, wherein at least a second fastener is configured to be attachable to the second surface, and wherein each fastener is attached to a spring which compresses and elongates along a guide shaft to allow the housing to contract and expand as required to pull the first surface towards the second surface to close the cargo carrying area; \n a first contact sensor attached at a distal end to the spring that attaches to the first fastener at a proximal end, configured to detect when the first fastener has been installed incorrectly, released, or removed from the first surface; and \n a second contact sensor attached at a distal end to the spring that attaches to the second fastener at a proximal end, configured to detect when the second fastener has been installed incorrectly, released or removed from the first surface; and \n electronic transmission element that is configured to received sensing data from the contact sensors attached to the first fastener and the second faster that, upon receiving notification that either the first fastener or the second fastener has been removed or tampered with, causes an alert, wherein the battery, fastening mechanism, and electronic transmission element is secured in the housing.
