Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé pour la gestion de divers services et plus particulièrement un procédé permettant d'assurer la gestion de services de restauration ou d'achats fonctionnant en libre-service, ainsi qu'un dispositif pour la mise en oeuvre d'un tel procédé
Dans les restaurants ou cafeteria fonctionnant en libre service, le client choisit lui-mme les plats composant son repas en se déplaçant devant des présentoirs généralement disposés suivant une rangée à l'extremite de laquelle est disposé un poste de caisse où est établie la facturation, et le cas échéant l'encaissement. Ce système s'avez souvent peu pratique car la comande de plats non imédiatement disponibles entraine une attente du client avant son passage à la caisse. Pour éviter cette attente, on peut envisager de facturer le plat comandé et de le servir ultéríeu3wnt dans la salle de restauration, mais il faut alors disposer de personnel pour assurer non seulement la prise de commande et sa transmission en cuisine, mais aussi la livraison du plat; un tel service s'avère gérbéralenent couteux et s'accompagne d'un risque d'erreurs, et de pertes de tees,
De plus, lorsque le client désire un plat ou un article supplémentaire en cours de repas, il doit se déplacer à nouveau, et effectuer son choix qui donne lieu à une nouvelle facturation. Une telle proceure nuit à l'efficacité du fonctionnezent de ltenseile, et ne procure aucun évent permettant de faciliter la gestion.The present invention relates to a method for the management of various services and more particularly a method for ensuring the management of catering services or purchases operating in self-service, as well as a device for the implementation of a such process
In restaurants or cafeteria operating in self-service, the customer chooses himself the dishes making up his meal by moving in front of displays generally arranged in a row at the end of which is a cash register where billing is established, and where appropriate the collection. This system is often impractical because the order of dishes not immediately available causes the customer to wait before going to the checkout. To avoid this wait, we can consider billing the ordered dish and serving it later in the dining room, but it is then necessary to have staff to ensure not only the order taking and its transmission in the kitchen, but also the delivery of dish; such a service proves gérbéralenent expensive and comes with a risk of errors, and loss of tees,
In addition, when the customer wants a dish or an additional item during a meal, he must move again and make his choice which gives rise to a new billing. Such a procurator harms the efficiency of the operation of the portal, and does not provide any vent making it possible to facilitate management.
La présente invention a pour objet on procédé permettant de gérer des services du type décrit ci-dessus, comprenant une sélection par un client parmi plusieurs articles dont certains sont igoédiatelent dispanibles et d'autres nécessitent une préparation, ainsi que leur facturation, et permettant d'en assurer un fonctionnement efficace et rentable en limitant les inconvénients des systèmes classiques.The subject of the present invention is a method for managing services of the type described above, comprising a selection by a client from among several articles, some of which are readily available and others require preparation, as well as their invoicing, and allowing '' ensure an efficient and profitable operation by limiting the disadvantages of conventional systems.
L'invention a également pour objet un dispositif adapté pour la mise en oeuvre du nouveau procédé de gestion de services ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a device suitable for the implementation of the new service management method above.
Conformément au procédé de l'invention, chaque client est prealablement identifié par un numéro codifié apposé sur un support conserveé par le client, chaque plat ou article proposé au client est identifié par - code, puis le code du client et les code de chaque plat ou article sélec- tionné par le client, sont lus par un dispositif de type connu et transmis à une unité centrale qui traite toutes les données identifiées par les codes, les transmet en totalité à une unité de facturation, et en partie à une unité de préparation, pour les données correspondant à un article sélectioné necessitant ume préparation, et enfin l'émissionde lacture par l'unité de facturation est déclenchée par la lecture du numéro codifié identifiant le client
Le numéro d'identification du client est de préférence apposé sur un support tel qu'une plaquette de matièr plastique, portant le numéro figu rant en chiffres et sous forme de code, par exemple de code à lecture optique, ou de code à barre. Ce même système de codificatin est egalement utilisé pour identifier les plats ou articles choisis par le client, figurant sur un tableau de références.In accordance with the process of the invention, each client is identified beforehand by a coded number affixed on a support kept by the client, each dish or item offered to the client is identified by - code, then the client code and the code of each dish or item selected by the customer, are read by a device of known type and transmitted to a central unit which processes all the data identified by the codes, transmits them entirely to a billing unit, and partly to a preparation, for the data corresponding to a selected article requiring a preparation, and finally the lactation emission by the invoicing unit is triggered by reading the coded number identifying the customer
The customer identification number is preferably affixed to a support such as a plastic plate, bearing the number appearing in figures and in the form of a code, for example an optical reader code, or a bar code. This same codificatin system is also used to identify the dishes or articles chosen by the customer, appearing on a table of references.
Le dispositif conforme à l'invention pour la mise en du du procédé cidessus comporte un tableau portant un code pour chaque article proposé et une plaquette portant un code identifiant chaque client, associes à m dispositif de type connu de lecture ducode du client et des d'identification des plats ou articles choisis par le client, racordé à une unité centrale constituée par exemple par un ordiiiat"er traitant les donées codifiées, et, d'une part, commandant une imprimante établissant la facture dont l'impression est déclenchée par la lecture du d'indentification du client, d'autre part transmettant à un système chage l'identification des plats nécessitant une preparation.The device according to the invention for implementing the above process comprises a table bearing a code for each item offered and a plate bearing a code identifying each client, associated with m device of known type for reading the client's code and the d identification of the dishes or articles chosen by the customer, connected to a central unit constituted for example by a computer processing the coded data, and, on the one hand, ordering a printer establishing the invoice whose printing is triggered by the reading of the customer identification, on the other hand transmitting to a chage system the identification of dishes requiring preparation.
La lecture des codes peut se faire par un opérateur qui les à l'unité centrale par 11 intermédiaire d'un clavier, ou de un crayon optique qui présente l'avantage d'éviter toute erreur de lec- ture.The codes can be read by an operator, who centralizes them by means of a keyboard, or an optical pencil, which has the advantage of avoiding any reading error.
Le systeme d'afdichage des plats nécessitant une préparation peut être constitué par exemple par un écran périphérique placé sur le lieu de préparation des plats, qui affiche en permanence les codes et les noms des plats et les quantités restant à préparer.The display system of dishes requiring preparation can be constituted for example by a peripheral screen placed at the place of preparation of dishes, which permanently displays the codes and names of dishes and the quantities remaining to be prepared.
Suivant une variante conforme à l'invention un dispositif complémentaire peut être prévu pour inscrire sur un écran de service les codes des plats préparés et des clients correspondants afin que ces plats puissent être remis au client par le personnel de service en limitant toute perte de temps. Les codes des plats et des clients peuvent être annulés par le personnel de service par l'intermédiaire d'un clavier.According to a variant in accordance with the invention, an additional device can be provided for entering on a service screen the codes of the dishes prepared and of the corresponding customers so that these dishes can be delivered to the customer by the service personnel while limiting any loss of time. . Dishes and customer codes can be canceled by service personnel using a keyboard.
Bien entendu, les programmes de calcul et de gestion servant dans l'unité centrale, qui sont hors du domaine de l'invention, peuvent être mis au point suivant les méthodes usuelles.Of course, the calculation and management programs serving in the central unit, which are outside the scope of the invention, can be developed according to the usual methods.
L'exemple donné ci-après illustre l'invention, sans en limiter la portée, en référence à la figure unique qui représente schématiquement la mise en place d'un dispositif conforme à l'invention pour un service de restauration.The example given below illustrates the invention, without limiting its scope, with reference to the single figure which schematically represents the installation of a device according to the invention for a catering service.
Le client reçoit une plaquette portant un numéro imprimé en chiffres et sous forme de code à barres à lecture optique, au poste 1, et choisit des plats disposés sur les présentoirs 2, 3, et 4 en se déplaçant dans le sens de la flèche 5, vers le poste 6 où il commande le cas échéant un plat nécessitant une préparation par exemple un plat chaud.The customer receives a plate bearing a number printed in figures and in the form of a barcode with optical reading, at station 1, and chooses dishes placed on the displays 2, 3, and 4 by moving in the direction of the arrow 5 , to station 6 where he orders, if necessary, a dish requiring preparation, for example a hot dish.
Au poste 6 se trouvent disposés un tableau de références portant l'identification des divers plats et les codes à barres correspondants, ainsi qu'un dispositif de lecture des codes, constitué par un crayon optique connecté à l'unité centrale 7. Un opérateur placé au poste 6 utilise le crayon optique pour lire le numéro codifié de la plaquette du client, et les codes correspondant aux plats choisis, figurant sur le tableau de référence. Ces données sont transmises à l'unité centrale 7 qui retransmet sur un écran 8 placé dans l'unité de préparation des plats 9, les codes des plats à préparer. D'autre part, toutes les données correspondant au même code client sont accumulées dans l'unité centrale 7 et transmises à l'imprimante 10, après traitement suivant un programme approprié, où est établie la facture.Un crayon optique est connecté à l'imprimante 10 et déclenche le calcul et l'impression de la facture par simple lecture du code d'identification du client.At station 6 are located a table of references carrying the identification of the various dishes and the corresponding bar codes, as well as a device for reading the codes, constituted by an optical pencil connected to the central unit 7. An operator placed at station 6, use the optical pencil to read the coded number from the customer's plate, and the codes corresponding to the dishes chosen, appearing on the reference table. These data are transmitted to the central unit 7 which retransmits on a screen 8 placed in the dish preparation unit 9, the codes of the dishes to be prepared. On the other hand, all the data corresponding to the same customer code are accumulated in the central unit 7 and transmitted to the printer 10, after processing according to an appropriate program, where the invoice is established. An optical pencil is connected to the printer 10 and triggers the calculation and printing of the invoice by simply reading the customer identification code.
Le client peut ainsi passer autant de fois qu'il le désire devant les présentoirs Z à 4 et à chaque passage, le code des plats choisis est lu au poste 6, tandis que la facturation ntintervient qu'une seule fois, ultérieurement, par l'imprimante 10.The customer can thus pass as many times as he wishes in front of the displays Z to 4 and at each passage, the code of the dishes chosen is read at station 6, while invoicing occurs only once, subsequently, by the printer 10.
Le procédé et le dispositif conformes à la présente invention permettent de rationaliser le fonctionnement d'un service de restauration fonctionnant en libre service. Bien entendu, il peut être également utilisé pour des ventes de tous produits dans un magasin fonctionnant suivant le principe du libre service.The method and the device in accordance with the present invention make it possible to rationalize the operation of a catering service operating in self-service. Of course, it can also be used for sales of all products in a store operating on the principle of self-service.
Ils permettent également d'améliorer la gestion d'un tel service tant au niveau du chiffre d'affaires global ou détaillé, qu'à celui des stocks des produits et des fournisseurs. They also make it possible to improve the management of such a service, both in terms of overall or detailed turnover and in terms of product and supplier inventories.
