Abstract: To implement a detection technique in which a tumble of and a shock to on articles can be detected even with a simple and low-cost structure. An indicator according to the present invention for detecting a tumble of and a shock to an article moves away from a holding guide in a detector when the detector inclines and goes beyond a limit for inclination. The indicator includes a first part in the shape of rolling on the holding guide when the detector inclines, and a second part smaller than the first part and in the shape of not preventing the first part from rolling. The first part and the second part join together and separate when receiving a shock.

Abstract: Bi-axial tilt monitoring apparatus and method for bi-axial tilt monitoring of an article using a single-axis tilt monitoring device. A bi-axial tilt monitoring apparatus according to exemplary embodiments includes a single-axis tilt monitoring device and a support member supporting the single-axis tilt monitoring device and mountable to an article to be monitored. The support member has a supporting surface for supporting the single-axis tilt monitoring device at an acute angle relative to a substantially vertical surface of the article to be monitored when the tilt monitoring apparatus is mounted to the article to be monitored.
