<p>21 However, all of the above-mentioned conventional article storage 22 systems do not disclose how to safeguard the articles of different users so as to 1 prevent the kept articles from being taken away by a person intentionally. In 2 addition, all of the conventional article storage systems do not disclose how to 3 employ the RFID tag to control the accessible and inaccessible states of each 4 of the storage cabinets.</p>
<p>The primary objective of the present invention is to provide an article 6 safeguard system that is used to control a plurality of storage cabinets in a 7 safety manner so as to provide a security effect to the articles contained in each 8 of the storage cabinets.</p>
<p>9 Another objective of the present invention is to provide an article safeguard system, wherein only one of the storage cabinets can identify the 11 respective RFID tag, so that only the respective RFID tag can open the 12 respective storage cabinet.</p>
<p>13 A further objective of the present invention is to provide an article 14 safeguard system, wherein the reading device successively reads the RFID tag placed in a respective one of the storage cabinets via the respective antenna, so 16 that when the RFID tag and the respective article are removed from the 17 respective one of the storage cabinets, the reading device detects that the RFID 18 tag is taken out and sends a signal to the control device which sends a warning 19 signal to the keeper of the storage cabinets to check the storage cabinets.</p>
<p>In accordance with the present invention, there is provided an article 21 safeguard system, comprising: I a storage device having a plurality of storage cabinets each arranged 2 and driven between an accessible state and an inaccessible state; 3 a plurality of antennas each mounted on a respective one of the 4 storage cabinets and each having an acting zone with a determined field, wherein the acting zones of the antennas do not overlap; o a plurality of RFID (radio frequency identification) tags; 7 a reading device connected to the antennas to read the RFID tags and 8 arranged to only read a respective one of the RFID tags which is located in the 9 acting zone of one of the antennas at a time.</p>
<p>io Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become 11 apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate 12 reference to the accompanying drawings.</p>
<p>13 In the drawings: 14 Fig. I is a block diagram of an article safeguard system in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention; 16 Fig. 2 is a partially perspective view of the article safeguard system 17 in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention; 18 Fig. 3 is a block diagram of an article safeguard system in accordance 19 with another preferred embodiment of the present invention; Fig. 4 is a block diagram of a reading device of the article safeguard 21 system in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention; 22 and 1 Fig. 5 is a block diagram of a reading device of the article safeguard 2 system in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present 3 invention.</p>
<p>4 Referring to the drawings and initially to Fig. 1, an article safeguard system in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention 6 comprises a storage device 1 having a plurality of storage cabinets 10, a 7 plurality of antennas 11 each mounted on a respective one of the storage 8 cabinets 10, a plurality of RFID (radio frequency identification) tags 3 each 9 containing a unique identification code, and a reading device 4 connected to the antennas 11 to read the RFID tags 3. Each of the RFID tags 3 is made with 11 a predetermined mode, such as an adhesive decal, a key ring, a card or the like.</p>
<p>12 Each of the storage cabinets 10 is arranged between an accessible 13 state and an inaccessible state.</p>
<p>14 As shown in Fig. 2, each of the storage cabinets 10 has a door 100.</p>
<p>When the respective storage cabinet 10 is driven into the accessible state, the 16 door 100 of one of the storage cabinets 10 is opened, so that articles can be 17 placed into or removed from the respective storage cabinet 10. Contrarily, 18 when the respective storage cabinet 1 0 is driven into the inaccessible state, the 19 door 100 of one of the storage cabinets 10 is closed. Preferably, the door 100 of one of the storage cabinets 10 is closed by an electronic lock 101. Alternatively, 2! each of the storage cabinets 10 has an automatic conveyor device (not shown).</p>
<p>22 Only if one of the storage cabinets 10 is driven into the inaccessible state, the I respective automatic conveyor device is operated to place the articles into or 2 remove the articles from the respective storage cabinet 10.</p>
<p>3 In addition, each of the antennas 11 is arranged to have an acting 4 zone with a determined field, and the acting zones of the antennas 11 do not overlap. This can be achieved by NFC (near field communication) technology.</p>
<p>6 As shown in Fig. 2, each of the antennas 11 is mounted on the door 100 of a 7 respective one of the storage cabinets 10. Otherwise, one antenna 11 a is 8 mounted on a periphery of a gate of a respective one of the storage cabinets 10.</p>
<p>9 Thus, the acting zone of each of the antennas 11 is about a field extends to a distance from an area enclosed by the antenna 11. The reading device 4 only 11 reads the respective RFID tag 3 which is located in the acting zone of one of 12 the antennas 11 at a time. Thus, when one of the RFID tags 3 is close to the 13 door 100 of one of the storage cabinets 10, the reading device 4 only reads the 14 respective RFID tag 3 via the antenna ii of the respective storage cabinet 10 and cannot reads the respective RFID tag 3 via the antenna 11 of an adjacent 16 storage cabinet 10, 50 that each of the storage cabinets 10 can be controlled, 17 managed and inspected individually.</p>
<p>18 In conclusion, the primary feature of the article safeguard system in 19 accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention is that the reading device 4 only reads the respective RFID tag 3 which is located in the 21 acting zone of one of the antennas 11 at a time.</p>
<p>1 Again referring to Fig. 1, the article safeguard system in accordance 2 with the preferred embodiment of the present invention further comprises a 3 control device 5 connected to the reading device 4 and each of the storage 4 cabinets 10 of the storage device 1. The control device 5 is arranged to receive the reading results of the reading device 4 to determine whether to drive the 6 respective storage cabinet 10 into the accessible state according to the reading 7 results of the reading device 4.</p>
<p>8 More specifically, one of the RFID tags 3 can be held by a user to 9 approach the door 100 of one storage cabinet 10 that is disposed at the inaccessible state. When one of the RF1D tags 3 enters the acting zone of the 11 antenna 11 of the respective storage cabinet 10, the reading device 4 reads the 12 identification code of the respective RFID tag 3 via the antenna 11 of the 13 respective storage cabinet 10. The identification code of the respective RFID 14 tag 3 is received and identified by the control device 5. When the control device 5 identifies that the respective RFID tag 3 does not match the respective 16 storage cabinet 10, the respective storage cabinet 10 is still disposed at the 17 inaccessible state by operation of the control device 5. On the contrary, when 18 the control device 5 identifies that the respective RFID tag 3 matches the 19 respective storage cabinet 10, the respective storage cabinet 10 is driven into the accessible state by operation of the control device 5. Thus, the door 100 of 21 the respective storage cabinet 10 is opened, so that the articles can be placed 22 into or removed from the respective storage cabinet 10. In such a manner, each I of the RFID tags 3 functions as a key of a respective one of the storage cabinets 2 10, so that only the RFID tag 3 matching the respective storage cabinet 10 can 3 enter the respective storage cabinet 10 to place the articles into or remove the 4 articles from the respective storage cabinet 10.</p>
<p>Thus, the article safeguard system is available for cabinets placed in 6 a site, such as the swimming pool, sauna pool and the like, to temporarily store 7 the articles, such as the clothing, keys, wallet and the like. It is to be noted that, 8 each of the storage cabinets 10 only matches a respective one of the RFID tags 9 3, so that each of the storage cabinets 10 can only be opened by the respective RFID tag 3. Thus, even when the user forgets the number of the respective 11 storage cabinet 10, he/she only needs to hold the RFID tag 3 to approach each 12 of the storage cabinets 10 so as to match and open the respective storage 13 cabinet 10.</p>
<p>14 Referring to Fig. 3, the control device 5a is connected to the reading device 4 and is arranged to in turn drive the reading device 4 to read each of the 16 RFID tags 3 placed in each of the storage cabinets 10 and to receive the reading 17 results of the reading device 4. The respective RFID tag 3 and the respective 18 article 2 are placed in a respective one of the storage cabinets 10. The control 19 device 5a may be a warning module, and may include a computer device and a software installed in the computer device to control information between the 21 respective article 2 and the respective storage cabinet 10, such as the 22 identification of the user of the respective article 2, the time when placing the 1 article 2 into the respective storage cabinet 10, the time when removing the 2 article 2 from the respective storage cabinet 10, and the like.</p>
<p>3 In practice, the article safeguard system is available for a large-scale 4 parking zone. When in use, one of the RFID tags 3 and the respective article 2 (such as a car key) are placed in a respective one of the storage cabinets 10 by o a keeper of the parking zone. Then, the information, such as the identification 7 of the user, the number of the license plate, the time when placing the article 2 8 into the respective storage cabinet 10 and the like, is sent into the control 9 device 5a by the keeper of the parking zone. In such a manner, the reading device 4 successively reads the RFID tag 3 placed in a respective one of 11 storage cabinets 10 via the respective antenna 11, so that when the respective 12 RFID tag 3 and the respective article 2 are removed from the respective one of 13 the storage cabinets 10, the reading device 4 detects that the RFID tag 3 is 14 taken out and sends a signal to the control device 5a which then sends a warning signal to the keeper of the parking zone to check the storage cabinets 16 10. Thus, the control device 5a monitors the article 2 contained in each of the 17 storage cabinets 10 successively so as to provide a security effect.</p>
<p>18 As shown in Fig. 3, the control device 5a is connected to each of the 19 storage cabinets 10 of the storage device 1, and receives the reading results of the reading device 4 to determine whether to drive the respective storage 21 cabinet 10 into the accessible state according to the reading results of the 22 reading device 4. Thus, when the respective storage cabinet 10 is disposed at I the accessible state by operation of the control device 5a, the respective storage 2 cabinet 10 is opened, so that the article 2 can be removed from the respective 3 storage cabinet 10 by the user.</p>
<p>4 Referring to Fig. 4, the reading device 4 includes a selection switch 41 connected to the antennas 11, a reading module 42 connected to the 6 selection switch 41, and a control module 43 connected to the selection switch 7 4! and the reading module 42. The control module 43 is arranged to control the 8 selection switch 41 to select and connect one of the antennas 11 to the reading 9 module 42 at a time and to drive the reading module 42 via the respective antenna 11 to read the respective RFID tag 3 which is located in the acting zone 11 of the respective antenna 11. The selection switch 41 is an electronic switch, 12 such as a switch whose IC number is HMC-254. The reading module 42 is a 13 RFID reading machine. The control module 43 is a microprocessor. Thus, the 14 reading device 4 includes a reading module 42 mating with a plurality of anteniias 1 1, thereby decreasing costs of fabrication, and thereby preventing 16 the antennas 11 from interfering with each other.</p>
<p>17 Referring to Fig. 5, another reading device 4a is available for more 18 storage cabinets 10. The selection switch 41 is limited that can only be 19 connected to a limited number of antennas 11, e.g., eight antennas 11. Thus, the reading device 4a needs to provide a plurality of selection switches 41 for more 21 antennas 11, so that the reading device 4a is available for more storage cabinets 22 10. The reading device 4a includes a plurality of selection switches 41, a I plurality of reading modules 42, and a plurality of control modules 43, as 2 shown in Fig. 5. In addition, the reading device 4a further includes a hub 6 3 bridging the control modules 43 and the control device 5 or 5a.</p>
<p>4 Accordingly, the article safeguard system is used to control a plurality of storage cabinets in a safety manner so as to provide a security 6 effect to the articles contained in each of the storage cabinets. In addition, each 7 of the storage cabinets can identify the respective RFID tag, so that only the 8 respective RFID tag can open the respective storage cabinet. Further, the 9 reading device successively reads the RFID tag placed in each of the storage cabinets via the respective antenna, so that when the RFID tag and the ii respective article are removed from a respective one of the storage cabinets, 12 the reading device detects that the RFID tag is taken out and sends a signal to 13 the control device which sends a warning signal to the keeper of the storage 14 cabinets to check the storage cabinets.</p>
<p>Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred 16 embodiment(s) as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other 17 possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the 18 scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended 19 claim or claims will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.</p>
