ABSTRACT:
A protective device for storage and transport containers comprises, in accordance with the present invention, a housing or frame carrying a sensor for detecting orientation, an attachment element for securing the housing or frame to a container, an alarm mounted to the housing or frame and operatively coupled to the sensor for generating a cognizable alert signal upon detection by the sensor that the container is in an orientation other than a predetermined preferred orientation, and an activation element mounted to the housing or frame and operatively connected to the sensor and/or the alarm for enabling operation of that component after securing of the housing or frame to the container. The activation element preferably includes a switching component for enabling operation of the alarm only after securing of the housing or frame to the container.
