DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION
Objeto de la invenciónObject of the invention
La presente invención se refiere a un mecanismo de análisis, control y vigilancia de envíos postales cerrados, que permite la verificación automática de la presencia de contenidos sospechosos en su interior, a través de un circuito eléctrico-mecánico integrado, gracias al cual se consigue la implementación de una medida de seguridad que no existía hasta el momento; el invento que se preconiza surge como respuesta a la novedosa e importuna modalidad de las acciones criminales que surgieron a partir del 11 de septiembre; con el aumento de ataques terroristas por vías no convencionales. El objeto de la invención corresponde a un método innovador de detección de elementos peligrosos introducidos en cartas u otros envíos postales con fines criminales. Se alcanzan enormes ventajas de protección y seguridad: ya que el procedimiento es capaz de detectar espontáneamente la presencia de metales, partículas orgánicas o inorgánicas dispersas en el interior de envoltorios sellados, sin necesidad de recurrir a su apertura para detectarlos, incorporando una novedosa operatividad múltiple que facilita dichas verificaciones en un mismo sistema. Impidiendo, a través de la presente invención, maniobras de extremo riesgo: como es el caso de una manipulación negligente o la apertura directa de cartas, paquetes bomba o con contenidos tóxicos (ántrax, venenos, etc.); o alternativamente, con fines engañosos psicoterroristas de intimidación (material sin actividad microbiológica) que persiguen la alerta y conmoción social: como ser azúcar, harina, etc.The present invention relates to a mechanism for analysis, control and surveillance of closed postal items, which allows automatic verification of the presence of suspicious contents inside, through an integrated electrical-mechanical circuit, thanks to which the implementation of a security measure that did not exist so far; the invention that is advocated arises in response to the novel and important modality of criminal actions that arose as of September 11; with the increase in terrorist attacks by unconventional means.

Preventing, through the present invention, extreme risk maneuvers: as is the case of negligent manipulation or the direct opening of letters, bomb packages or with toxic contents (anthrax, poisons, etc.); or alternatively, for deceptive psychoterrorist intimidation purposes (material without microbiological activity) that pursue social alertness and shock: such as sugar, flour, etc.
Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention
Son conocidos en la actualidad sistemas de seguridad para detectar metales y explosivos(como scanners, aparatos de RX), pero son mecanismos que se pueden encontrar solamente en instituciones, centros de gran magnitud, aeropuertos, etc. no encontrándose al alcance de cualquier persona y con prestaciones de seguridad limitados. Además, el sistema objeto de la invención protege a la o las personas de reacciones de combustión espontáneas que se producen al mezclarse dos sustancias químicas dispuestas en el interior del sobre, (o en contacto con el aire) que, alSecurity systems for detecting metals and explosives (such as scanners, RX devices) are currently known, but they are mechanisms that can only be found in institutions, large centers, airports, etc. not being available to anyone and with security benefits limited In addition, the system object of the invention protects the person (s) from spontaneous combustion reactions that occur when two chemical substances are disposed inside the envelope, (or in contact with the air) which, when

15 patogenia ocular, etc.) o como peróxido explosivo. En lo referente a la verificación de la presencia de esporas de ántrax u otros preparados sintéticos de acción patógena, no se ha encontrado todavía un mecanismo especializado que ofrezca dicha protección. Lo que existe son proyectos, sobre todo en los EEUU, los cuales 2Q se encuentran todavía en proceso de estudio de viabilidad; pero presentan enormes dificultades operacionales por los altísimos costos, escasa maniobrabilidad técnica; y en el caso del ántrax, además de ser aparatología extremadamente cara, con maquinaria pesada, su formulación de protección como mecanismo de detección de sobres o cartas con contenido microbiológico es limitado y peligroso: ya que la evaluación del contenido se efectúa una vez que el objeto postal ha sido abierto,15 ocular pathogenesis, etc.) or as explosive peroxide. Regarding the verification of the presence of anthrax spores or other synthetic preparations of pathogenic action, a specialized mechanism offering such protection has not yet been found. What exists are projects, especially in the US, which 2 Q are still in the process of feasibility study; but they present enormous operational difficulties due to the very high costs, poor technical maneuverability; and in the case of anthrax, in addition to being extremely expensive apparatus, with heavy machinery, its protection formulation as a mechanism for detecting envelopes or letters with microbiological content is limited and dangerous: since the evaluation of the content is carried out once the postal object has been opened,
25 basando su función en el análisis del ADN de las esporas de ántrax que se hallen flotando en el aire. De esta forma se incurre en una actitud muy peligrosa: ya que el tiempo de verificación es lo suficientemente largo como para que la o las personas que han estado directa o indirectamente involucradas con el objeto corran enormes peligros de haber sido ya infectadas al haber entrado en contacto directo o indirecto con las toxinas. Además, la posible verificación del contenido terrorista se halla limitada al ántrax, ya que no se tuvo en cuenta que en la actualidad existen envíos letales que contienen venenos (como ricina), además, los expertos opinan que incontables tipos de cepas y sustancias tóxicas sintéticas pueden ser transmitidas a través de polvos o preapartados (por ejemplo la ricina que es uno de las sustancias toxicas mas letales, y que actualmente se están implementando como armas de destrucción intimidación y amenaza latente (usando el correo como vía de ataque, y por supuesto no lograrían ser detectadas por medio de los aparatos que solo controlan el ADN del ántrax.. No existe, hasta el momento ningún sistema que permita detectar de forma espontánea la presencia de material sospechoso escondido en envíos postales adulterados (independientemente de la estructura o composición del material), y que no requiera de su apertura para alertar de su presencia. Tampoco existe, hasta ahora, un sistema que logre ofrecer múltiples aplicaciones de protección combinada frente a envíos postales con sustancias dispersas de preparados sintéticos, con o sin actividad patogénica; y también que incluya la capacidad técnica de alertar sobre un paquete o carta que contenga material metálico que son utilizados como detonadores de explosivos.25 based its function on the analysis of the DNA of anthrax spores that are floating in the air. In this way a very dangerous attitude is incurred: since the verification time is long enough so that the person or persons who have been directly or indirectly involved with the object are in great danger of having already been infected when they have entered direct or indirect contact with toxins. In addition, the possible verification of the terrorist content is limited to anthrax, since it was not taken into account that there are currently lethal shipments that contain poisons (such as ricin), in addition, experts believe that countless types of strains and synthetic toxic substances they can be transmitted through powders or preparts (for example, ricin, which is one of the deadliest toxic substances, and which are currently being implemented as weapons of destruction, intimidation and latent threat (using mail as a means of attack, and of course they would not be able to be detected by means of the devices that only control the DNA of the anthrax .. There is no, so far, any system that allows to detect spontaneously the presence of suspicious material hidden in postal items adulterated (regardless of the structure or composition of the material), and that does not require its opening to warn of its presence. Nor is there, so far, a system that manages to offer multiple combined protection applications against postal shipments with dispersed substances of synthetic preparations, with or without pathogenic activity; and also that it includes the technical capacity to alert on a package or letter containing metallic material that are used as explosive detonators.
El mecanismo al que hace referencia la invención es un sistema innovador que tiene la capacidad de brindar esta protección global a los cada vez más peligrosos y multiformes ataques terroristas por la vía postal; y lo realiza a partir de una técnica que no brinda complejidades a la hora de la fabricación y utilización. Se compone de materiales que fácilmente se hallan en el mercado y pueden ser adquiridos a nivel masivo a un precio asequible.The mechanism referred to in the invention is an innovative system that has the ability to provide this global protection to the increasingly dangerous and multiform terrorist attacks by mail; and it does it from a technique that does not provide complexities at the time of manufacture and use. It consists of materials that are easily found in the market and can be purchased at a massive level at an affordable price.

De esta manera se produce un tiramiento de dichas paredes hacia afuera; produciendo un hueco en el interior del sobre, paquete, etc.; facilitándose de esta forma el traslado interno del polvo o partículas que puedan alojarse en el interior: Con el fin de favorecer su vehiculización, transpolarización y ubicación en las zonas de inducción (15) y lectura o registro(16) las bombas de vacío o cámaras de aspiración también ejercen una función de extracción, barrido y limpieza de posibles partículas dispersas en el receptáculo contenedor del objeto de estudio cuando se detecta la presencia en su interior de elementos dispersos sospechosos: esporas de ántrax, como también de gases tóxicos emanados de la combustión espontánea de componentes químicos alojados premeditadamente en el interior, que se activarían interactuando por fricción, choque, etc. cuando la o las victimas manipulasen el objeto. ( Por ejemplo: su apertura, traslado, etc.)If the result of the built-in metal analyzer is negative, the motor corresponding to the drive is started; advancing the envelope or package to another cycle. This step consists in the subjection and guidance of the element to study. For this purpose adjustment tweezers, friction of the lateral surfaces, or gadgets of a receptacle specifically conditioned can be used for the successive development of the different steps to follow in the cycles; without forgetting or discarding any other indicated device so that the object to be examined can be maintained in the indicated position and thus achieve the proper application of the system programmed in all its operational phases. The guide will be carried out through the use of rails, canals or other element that acts as a way of consecutive succession and facilitates the transfer of the postal element to the induction zones or active zones (drawing) these zones consist of: A) pumps vacuum or suction chambers (9) B) vibration system (5) C) induction systems (15) D) variable readers, registers, parameters (16) a) vacuum pumps or suction chambers are located in both sides of the object to study (9) drawing). Its purpose is to exert an extrinsic force that simultaneously sucks both sides of the envelope or other element to study. In this way there is a pulling of said walls outwards; producing a hole inside the envelope, package, etc .; facilitating in this way the internal transfer of dust or particles that can be housed inside: In order to favor its vehiculization, transpolarization and location in induction zones (15) and reading or recording (16) vacuum pumps or chambers The suction system also exerts a function of extracting, sweeping and cleaning possible dispersed particles in the container receptacle of the object of study when the presence of suspicious dispersed elements inside it is detected: anthrax spores, as well as toxic gases emanating from combustion spontaneously of chemical components housed inside, which would be activated interacting by friction, shock, etc. when the victim (s) manipulated the object. (For example: its opening, transfer, etc.)
b) Una vez posicionado el elemento a analizar se aplica sobre él (desde el exterior o interior) una fuerza vibratoria de acción descendente por medio de la utilización de ultrasonidos, ruedas dentadas mecanizadas u otro mecanismo análogo que genere movimientos vibratorios intrínsecos en el sobre o paquete postal. Esta acción por la cual se sacude el objeto tiene como finalidad: 1) el desprendimiento de las paredes internas del envoltorio de posibles partículas micro o macromoleculares que puedan estar apelmazadas o incrustadas en vértices, rincones o entre las hojas del envió postal. De esta forma se facilita la consecuente: 2) transmisión de dichas partículas de polvo o sustancias dispersas hacia la zona de estimulación o inducción exógena. 3) esta fase vibratoria persigue también la protección de la o las personas, ya que desencadenaría la mezcla de diferentes concentraciones de preparados químicos peligrosos estratégicamente ubicados en el interior; que, de producirse la explosión o liberación de gases tóxicos, ocurriría en el interior de un receptáculo hermético y blindado; evitando que dicha acción criminal se llevara a cabo en las manos de las personas que estuvieran manipulando la correspondencia, con consecuencias personales y ambientales insospechadas.b) Once the element to be analyzed has been positioned, a vibrating force of downward action is applied to it (from the outside or inside) by means of the use of ultrasound, mechanized sprockets or other similar mechanism that generates intrinsic vibratory movements in the envelope or Postal Package. This action by which the object is shaken has as its purpose: 1) the detachment of the internal walls of the envelope of possible micro or macromolecular particles that may be caked or embedded in vertices, corners or between the sheets of the postal delivery. In this way the consequent is facilitated: 2) transmission of said dust particles or dispersed substances towards the exogenous stimulation or induction zone. 3) this vibratory phase also seeks the protection of the person (s), since it would trigger the mixing of different concentrations of dangerous chemical preparations strategically located inside; that, if the explosion or release of toxic gases occurred, it would occur inside a hermetic and armored receptacle; preventing such criminal action from being carried out in the hands of people who were handling the correspondence, with unexpected personal and environmental consequences.
