Description

本発明は、共振タグ、非接触ICタグを用いた外的要因変化感知検出システムに関する。   The present invention relates to an external factor change detection detection system using a resonance tag and a non-contact IC tag.

情報の機密性の面からICカードが次第に普及されつつある中、近年では、読み書き装置(リーダライタ)と接触せずに情報の授受を行う非接触型のICカードが提案され、中でも、外部の読み書き装置との信号交換を、あるいは信号交換と電力供給とを電磁波により行う方式のものが実用化されつつある。
そして、データを搭載したICを、アンテナコイルと接続した、シート状ないし札状の非接触式のICタグが、近年、種々提案され、商品や包装箱等に付け、万引き防止、物流システム、商品管理等に利用されるようになってきた。
勿論、ICを持たない単なる共振タグも物品の存在感知に用いられている。
While IC cards are becoming increasingly popular from the aspect of confidentiality of information, in recent years, non-contact type IC cards that send and receive information without contacting a reader / writer (reader / writer) have been proposed. A method of exchanging signals with a read / write device or performing signal exchange and power supply by electromagnetic waves is being put into practical use.
In recent years, various contactless IC tags in the form of sheets or bills, in which data loaded ICs are connected to antenna coils, have been proposed and attached to products and packaging boxes, etc. to prevent shoplifting, logistics systems, products It has come to be used for management.
Of course, a simple resonance tag having no IC is also used to detect the presence of an article.

上記ICを持たない単なる共振タグやICタグは、いずれも、物品の存在感知や、物品の識別を行うもので、外的要因の変化をとらえるものではない。
個別に設定した共振周波数を持つ共振タグの場合も、物品の存在感知や、物品の識別を行うもので、外的要因の変化をとらえるものではない。
物品の外的要因である温度の変化を把握するために、たとえば、温度センサとCPU、メモリと電池を内蔵したボタン型の温度モニタデバイスの使用も考えられるが、センサ、CPU、メモリ、電池を内蔵するため1ケ数千円と高価で、内蔵電池で動くため寿命が短い。
また、温度変化により色変化するサーモラベルのようなものがあるが、自動で個別識別する機能はなく、ひとつひとつ目視による確認が必要であり、簡便に検出することができない。
このように、従来、タグは、物品の存在感知や物品の識別を行うために専ら用いられ、物品の温度等環境の変化を把握するためには、温度モニタデバイスのように高価であったり、あるいは、サーモラベルのように扱いに手間がかかるため、物品の環境変化を把握するためには用いられていなかった。
尚、共振タグの周波数識別方法としては、従来から、特開2000- 49655号公報にも記載のように、ディップメーター方式とエコー波感知方式等が知られている。
特開2000- 49655号公報
Any of the simple resonance tags and IC tags that do not have the above-described ICs senses the presence of an article and identifies the article, and does not capture changes in external factors.
In the case of a resonance tag having an individually set resonance frequency, the presence of an article is detected and the article is identified, and a change in external factors is not captured.
In order to grasp the change in temperature, which is an external factor of goods, for example, the use of a temperature sensor and CPU, a button-type temperature monitoring device with a built-in memory and battery is conceivable. Because it is built-in, it is expensive at a few thousand yen.
In addition, there is a thermo label that changes color due to temperature change, but there is no automatic individual identification function, and visual confirmation is required one by one, and detection is not easy.
Thus, conventionally, the tag is exclusively used for sensing the presence of an article and identifying the article, and in order to grasp changes in the environment such as the temperature of the article, it is expensive like a temperature monitor device, Or, since it takes time to handle like a thermo label, it has not been used to grasp the environmental change of an article.
As a frequency identification method for a resonance tag, a dip meter method, an echo wave detection method, and the like are conventionally known as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-49655.

(Function)
With this configuration, the external factor change detection and detection system of the present invention can provide an external factor change detection and detection system that can implement a method for easily grasping an environmental change of an article using a tag. It was.
Specifically, the tag includes a tag having a resonance circuit set so that the resonance frequency is changed by a change in external factors, and a detector that senses the tag in a predetermined frequency section including the resonance frequency of the tag. In the case where the external environment has changed, at least a tag whose external environment has changed can be detected, and from this, it can be determined that an article to which the tag is attached has been changed by the external environment.
A non-contact IC tag having a resonance circuit set so that the resonance frequency is changed by a change in an external factor, an IC chip connected to the resonance circuit, and a predetermined resonance frequency including a change in the resonance frequency of the IC tag. If it is equipped with a detection reader that detects the IC tag in the frequency section, and reads the information of the IC chip to identify the IC tag individually, it can detect the tag whose external environment has changed. Further, the information held by the IC chip of the tag can be grasped, whereby it can be determined that the article to which the tag is attached has undergone a change in the external environment, and the tag is attached. It is assumed that the individual information of the goods can be grasped.
Therefore, it is possible to determine whether or not the article to which the tag is attached has undergone a change in the external environment, or whether or not the article to which the tag is attached has undergone a change in the external environment. As well as being able to grasp individual information of the article, it is possible to identify and classify articles that have undergone changes in the external environment and articles that have not.
Examples of changes in external factors include changes in tag environment such as humidity, moisture, pressure, gas concentration, acceleration, and impact in addition to temperature.
Specifically, there is an example in which the resonance frequency is changed by changing the capacitance component of the resonance circuit by changing the environment of the tag.

本発明の外的要因変化感知検知システムにおいては、外的要因の変化に対する共振周波数の変化が可逆的であると、タグの近くに、タグの変化した共振周波数を含む所定の周波数区間で、タグを感知する検出器をあるいは検出読み出し機を配している場合には、所定の外的要因の変化を連続あるいは、周期的、断続的に感知することができ、所望の外的要因の変化を感知し、感知した時点で判別、区分け、認識等ができる。
あるいは、ICタグの場合には、所望の外的要因の変化をその変化時にメモリに記憶して、その後に、記憶したデータを判別、区分けを行うこともできる。
しかし、タグの近くに検出器あるいは検出読み出し機がなく、タグをつけ物品を検出器あるいは検出読み出し機まで移動して、外的要因の変化を受けたか否かを調べる場合には、物品が外的要因の変化を受けたか否かを正確に知ることはできない。
In the external factor change detection and detection system according to the present invention, when the change in the resonance frequency with respect to the change in the external factor is reversible, the tag is placed near a tag in a predetermined frequency section including the changed resonance frequency of the tag. In the case where a detector or a detection reader is provided, it is possible to detect a change in a predetermined external factor continuously, periodically, or intermittently, and to detect a change in a desired external factor. It can be detected, identified, sorted, recognized, etc.
Alternatively, in the case of an IC tag, a change in a desired external factor can be stored in a memory at the time of the change, and then the stored data can be discriminated and classified.
However, when there is no detector or detection reader near the tag and the tag is attached and the article is moved to the detector or detection reader to check whether the external factor has changed, It is not possible to know exactly whether or not it has undergone changes in the physical factors.

これに対して、タグの近くに検出器あるいは検出読み出し機がなく、タグをつけ物品を検出器あるいは検出読み出し機まで移動して、外的要因の変化を受けたか否かを調べる場合には、外的要因変化が履歴に残るように、外的要因変化の変化に対して周波数が不可逆的な変化を示す不可逆素子を使用したタグを用いる。
たとえば、コンデンサの誘電体の組成を工夫することにより、温度に対応して誘電体自体を変化させることにより、その容量変化を温度に対し不可逆的にすることができる。
具体的な例としては、セラミックコンデンサを、温度変化により共振回路の容量成分を変化させる素子として挙げられるが、これは、セラミックコンデンサの容量変化が不可逆的な温度履歴を示す範囲を利用するものである。
また、回路の開放、短絡を利用して共振周波数の変化を誘発させるためには、温度ヒューズにような不可逆的な素子を用いることができる。
On the other hand, when there is no detector or detection reader near the tag and the tag is attached and the article is moved to the detector or detection reader to check whether or not the external factor has been changed, A tag using an irreversible element that shows an irreversible change in frequency with respect to a change in external factor change is used so that a change in external factor remains in the history.
For example, by devising the composition of the dielectric of the capacitor and changing the dielectric itself according to the temperature, the capacitance change can be made irreversible with respect to the temperature.
As a specific example, a ceramic capacitor can be cited as an element that changes the capacitance component of the resonant circuit due to a temperature change. This is because the ceramic capacitor uses a range in which the capacitance change shows an irreversible temperature history. is there.
Further, an irreversible element such as a thermal fuse can be used in order to induce a change in the resonance frequency by utilizing an open circuit or a short circuit.

本発明に用いられるタグは、前述のような構成にすることにより、タグを用いて、上記本発明の、簡便に物品の環境変化を把握できる外的要因変化感知検出システムの提供を可能とした。   By using the tag used in the present invention as described above, it is possible to provide an external factor change detection and detection system capable of easily grasping an environmental change of an article of the present invention using the tag. .

先ず、本発明の外的要因変化感知検出システムに用いられるタグの第1の例を図1に基づいて説明する。
第1の例は、図1(a)に示すように、アンテナコイル130に、その容量成分が、使用温度範囲で可逆的に温度依存性を示す外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子(セラミックコンデンサ等)120を直列に接続した、図1(b)に示す回路の共振タグである。 アンテナコイル130、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子120は絶縁性フィルム150の一面に配され、端子部131とアンテナコイルの外側とは、接続配線部140で接続されている。
また、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子120は端子部131と端子部132間に配されている。
温度の変化により、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子120はその容量成分を変化させるため、図1(b)に示す回路で、容量成分のみが温度の変化にともない可逆的に変化し、その共振周波数が変化する。
例えば、図4に示すように、タグの周波数特性は、温度T1のf1に共振周波数を持つ周波数特性から、温度T2のf2に共振周波数を持つ周波数特性へと変化する。
図4において、410は温度T1における周波数特性で、420は温度T2における周波数特性である。
この場合、充分に短かい周期で周波数f1にてタグを感知するためのリーダと、充分に短かい周期で周波数f2にてタグを感知するためのリーダとによりタグの読み出しを行うことにより、それぞれ、タグの温度がT1、T2にあるか否かを知ることができる。
したがって、仮に、一方の温度T1を基準の温度状態のタグの温度とし、他方の温度T2を所定の異常時のタグの温度とすれば、充分に短かい周期で周波数f2にてタグを感知することによりタグの異常温度状態の有無を判別することができ、これより、このようなタグをつけた物品の温度変化の有無も判別することができる。
このように、第1の例のタグは、タグの異常温度状態の有無、温度変化の有無を共振周波数の変化としてとらえることができるものである。
尚、通常は基準の温度状態では、ISO/IEC15693規格の近傍型に準じて、共振周波数を13.56MHzとしておく。
First, a first example of a tag used in the external factor change sensing detection system of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
In the first example, as shown in FIG. 1A, an element (ceramic) whose capacitance component is changed in the antenna coil 130 due to an external factor change reversibly showing temperature dependence in the operating temperature range. This is a resonance tag of the circuit shown in FIG. 1B in which capacitors 120 and the like are connected in series. The antenna coil 130 and the element 120 whose capacitance changes due to external factors are arranged on one surface of the insulating film 150, and the terminal portion 131 and the outside of the antenna coil are connected by a connection wiring portion 140.
Further, the element 120 whose capacitance is changed by a change in external factors is disposed between the terminal portion 131 and the terminal portion 132.
In the circuit shown in FIG. 1B, only the capacitance component changes reversibly with the change in temperature in the circuit shown in FIG. The resonance frequency changes.
For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the frequency characteristic of the tag changes from a frequency characteristic having a resonance frequency at f1 of temperature T1 to a frequency characteristic having a resonance frequency at f2 of temperature T2.
In FIG. 4, 410 is the frequency characteristic at the temperature T1, and 420 is the frequency characteristic at the temperature T2.
In this case, by reading the tag with a reader for sensing the tag at the frequency f1 with a sufficiently short period and a reader for sensing the tag with the frequency f2 with a sufficiently short period, It is possible to know whether the temperature of the tag is at T1 or T2.
Therefore, if one temperature T1 is a tag temperature in a reference temperature state and the other temperature T2 is a tag temperature at a predetermined abnormality, the tag is sensed at a frequency f2 with a sufficiently short period. Thus, it is possible to determine the presence or absence of an abnormal temperature state of the tag, and from this, it is also possible to determine the presence or absence of a temperature change of an article with such a tag.
As described above, the tag of the first example can capture the presence / absence of an abnormal temperature state of the tag and the presence / absence of a temperature change as a change in resonance frequency.
Normally, in the reference temperature state, the resonance frequency is set to 13.56 MHz in accordance with the proximity type of ISO / IEC15693 standard.

接続配線部140としては、アンテナコイル130上で絶縁材を介して、導電性層を形成して、あるいはワイヤによりアンテナコイル130の外側と端子部131とを電気的に接続したものや、絶縁性基材150のアンテナコイル形成面側でない面に接続用配線部を設け、これとアンテナコイル130の外側とを、および端子部131とをかしめ接続したもの(図2(a)のかしめ接続部240、241、接続配線部245の接続を参照)が挙げられる。
絶縁性基材150としては、PET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)、ポリプロピレン(PP)、ポリエチレン、ABS、スチレン、ポリイミド、ガラスエポキシ、PETG、ポリカーボネート、紙、PVC、またはアクリル等が挙げられるが、強度、耐熱、耐薬品性のあるPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)ないしポリイミドが好ましい。
絶縁性基材150の厚さは、通常、25μm〜200μmである。
アンテナコイル130を形成する金属材としては、Cu、Al等があるが、アンテナ配線の微細化、狭ピッチ化には、Cuが好ましい。
電気特性からCu、Alの厚さは、それぞれ、10〜50μm、15〜50μmが好ましい。
As the connection wiring part 140, a conductive layer is formed on the antenna coil 130 via an insulating material, or the outside of the antenna coil 130 and the terminal part 131 are electrically connected by a wire, or an insulating property. A wiring portion for connection is provided on a surface of the base material 150 that is not on the antenna coil forming surface side, and this is caulked and connected to the outside of the antenna coil 130 and the terminal portion 131 (the caulking connection portion 240 in FIG. 2A). 241, see the connection of the connection wiring portion 245).
Examples of the insulating substrate 150 include PET (polyethylene terephthalate), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene, ABS, styrene, polyimide, glass epoxy, PETG, polycarbonate, paper, PVC, or acrylic, but the strength, heat resistance, Chemically resistant PET (polyethylene terephthalate) or polyimide is preferable.
The thickness of the insulating substrate 150 is usually 25 μm to 200 μm.
The metal material for forming the antenna coil 130 includes Cu, Al, etc., but Cu is preferable for miniaturization and narrowing of the antenna wiring.
From electrical characteristics, the thicknesses of Cu and Al are preferably 10 to 50 μm and 15 to 50 μm, respectively.

(第1の例のタグの変形例)
第1の例は、その容量が可逆的に温度依存性の外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子120を、外的要因としての温度の変化に依存してタグの共振周波数を変化させる素子として用いたものであるが、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子としては、所定の温度変化の下で、温度変化に対し履歴を示して不可逆的な容量変化特性を示すものがある。
このような特性を示す外的要因変化により不可逆的に容量の変化する素子を用いたものを第1の例の変形例として挙げられる。
この変形例の場合は、温度変化の有無を、所定の容量変化履歴の容量変化の有無として感知することができるため、タグの異常温度に対応する周波数にて、充分に短かく周期的に、タグを感知するためのリーダによりタグの読み出しを行う必要はなく、少なくとも所望の時に、タグの異常温度に対応する周波数にてタグ感知するためのリーダとによりタグの読み出しを行えばよい。
また、不可逆的に容量変化を起こす素子はコンデンサ単独である必要はなく、ヒューズ等を併用しても良い。
(Modification of the tag of the first example)
In the first example, the element 120 whose capacity is reversibly changed by a temperature-dependent external factor change is used as an element that changes the resonance frequency of the tag depending on the temperature change as an external factor. As an element used, an element whose capacitance changes due to a change in external factors is one that shows an irreversible capacitance change characteristic by showing a history with respect to a temperature change under a predetermined temperature change.
A modification of the first example is one that uses an element whose capacitance changes irreversibly due to an external factor change exhibiting such characteristics.
In the case of this modification, since the presence or absence of temperature change can be detected as the presence or absence of a capacity change in a predetermined capacity change history, at a frequency corresponding to the abnormal temperature of the tag, sufficiently short and periodically, There is no need to read the tag by a reader for detecting the tag, and the tag may be read by a reader for detecting the tag at a frequency corresponding to the abnormal temperature of the tag at least when desired.
Further, the element that causes the capacitance change irreversibly does not need to be a capacitor alone, and a fuse or the like may be used in combination.

次に、本発明の外的要因変化感知検出システムに用いられるタグの第2の例を図2に基づいて説明する。
第2の例は、図2(a)に示すように、アンテナコイル230に、その容量成分が温度依存性を示す外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子(セラミックコンデンサ等)220とICチップ210とを並列にして、これらを直列に接続した、図2(b)に示す回路の非接触型のICタグである。
アンテナコイル230、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子220、ICチップ210は絶縁性フィルム250の一面に配され、これらは、アンテナコイル240の外側と、かしめ接続部240、241にてかしめ接続されている。
尚、接続配線部245は、絶縁性フィルム250のアンテナコイル形成面側でない面に設けられており、これをかしめ接続部240、241にて、それぞれ、接続して、図2(b)に示す回路を形成している。
第2の例の場合も、第1の例と同様、温度の変化により、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子220はその容量成分を可逆的に変化させるため、図2(b)に示す回路で、容量成分のみが変化し、その共振周波数が変化する。
温度変化前の基準温度状態での動作の共振周波数をf12、温度変化後の所望の温度(異常温度のこと)での共振周波数をf22とすれば、第1の例の場合と同様、タグの前記所望の温度変化の感知を、充分に短かい周期で周波数f22にてタグ感知するリーダによりタグの読み出しを行うことにより、共振周波数の変化としてとらえることができる。
このように、第2の例のタグも、タグの所定温度変化の有無を共振周波数の変化としてとらえることができるものである。
尚、第2の例の場合も、通常、基準の温度状態では、ISO/IEC15693規格の近傍型に準じて、共振周波数を13.56MHzとしておく。
また、ICチップ110は、通常、大きさ1.0mm×0.9mm角、厚さ約150μm程度のものが用いられ、それ以外の各部については、第1の例と同様のものが使用できる。
Next, a second example of a tag used in the external factor change detection detection system of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
In the second example, as shown in FIG. 2A, an antenna coil 230 includes an element 220 (such as a ceramic capacitor) whose capacitance component changes due to an external factor change whose temperature component shows temperature dependence, and an IC chip 210. 2 is a non-contact type IC tag of the circuit shown in FIG. 2B, which are connected in series.
The antenna coil 230, the element 220 whose capacitance changes due to external factors change, and the IC chip 210 are arranged on one surface of the insulating film 250, and these are caulked and connected to the outside of the antenna coil 240 by caulking connection portions 240 and 241. Has been.
Note that the connection wiring portion 245 is provided on the surface of the insulating film 250 that is not on the antenna coil formation surface side, and is connected by caulking connection portions 240 and 241 respectively, as shown in FIG. A circuit is formed.
Also in the case of the second example, as in the first example, the element 220 whose capacitance changes due to a change in external factor due to a change in temperature reversibly changes its capacitance component. In the circuit, only the capacitive component changes and its resonant frequency changes.
If the resonance frequency of the operation in the reference temperature state before the temperature change is f12 and the resonance frequency at the desired temperature (abnormal temperature) after the temperature change is f22, as in the case of the first example, The desired temperature change can be detected as a change in resonance frequency by reading the tag with a reader that senses the tag at a frequency f22 with a sufficiently short period.
In this way, the tag of the second example can also capture the presence or absence of a predetermined temperature change of the tag as a change in resonance frequency.
In the case of the second example as well, in the reference temperature state, the resonance frequency is normally set to 13.56 MHz according to the proximity type of the ISO / IEC15693 standard.
The IC chip 110 is usually 1.0 mm × 0.9 mm square and about 150 μm thick, and the other parts can be the same as those in the first example.

第2の例のものは、ICチップ210を備えていることにより、温度変化の有無の他に、メモリからその物品情報をより詳しく知ることができる。
また、第2の例のタグは、ICチップ210を備えていることにより、温度変化の有無を、そのメモリに蓄積させることも可能である。
In the second example, since the IC chip 210 is provided, the article information can be known in more detail from the memory in addition to the presence or absence of the temperature change.
In addition, since the tag of the second example includes the IC chip 210, the presence or absence of temperature change can be stored in the memory.

(第2の例のタグの変形例)
第2の例は、その容量が可逆的に温度依存性の外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子220を、外的要因としての温度の変化に依存してタグの共振周波数を変化させる素子として用いたものであるが、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子として、所定の温度変化の下で、温度変化に対し履歴を示して不可逆的な容量変化特性を示すものを用いたタグを第2の例の変形例として挙げられる。
この変形例の場合は、温度変化の有無を、所定の容量変化履歴の容量変化の有無として感知することができるため、タグの異常温度に対応する周波数f22にて、充分に短かい周期で、タグを感知するためのリーダによりタグの読み出しを行う必要はなく、少なくとも所望の時に、タグの異常温度に対応する周波数f22にてタグ感知するためのリーダとによりタグの読み出しを行えばよい。
(Modification of the tag of the second example)
In the second example, the element 220 whose capacity changes reversibly due to a temperature-dependent external factor change is used as an element that changes the resonance frequency of the tag depending on the temperature change as an external factor. A tag that uses an element that exhibits irreversible capacity change characteristics by showing a history with respect to a temperature change under a predetermined temperature change is used as an element whose capacity changes due to a change in external factors. It is mentioned as a modification of the example of 2.
In the case of this modification, the presence / absence of a temperature change can be detected as the presence / absence of a capacity change in a predetermined capacity change history. Therefore, at a frequency f22 corresponding to the abnormal temperature of the tag, with a sufficiently short period, There is no need to read the tag by a reader for detecting the tag, and the tag may be read by a reader for detecting the tag at a frequency f22 corresponding to the abnormal temperature of the tag at least when desired.

上記、第1の例のタグ、第2の例のタグは、いずれも、タグの温度変化をその共振回路の共振周波数の変化として把握するものであるが、湿度、水分、圧力、気体濃度、加速度、衝撃等の環境変化により、回路の周波数特性を変化させ、これらの変化を共振回路の共振周波数の変化として把握してもよい。
実際には、これらの環境の変化を回路の容量成分の変化としてとらえ、これから、共振周波数の変化として把握するのが容易であろう。
例えば、容量成分を形成するための誘電体素材に、温度変化に伴い誘電体素材自体を変化させるものを混入あるいは分散させる。
The tag of the first example and the tag of the second example both grasp the temperature change of the tag as the change of the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit, but the humidity, moisture, pressure, gas concentration, The frequency characteristics of the circuit may be changed according to environmental changes such as acceleration and impact, and these changes may be grasped as changes in the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit.
Actually, it will be easy to grasp these changes in the environment as changes in the capacitance component of the circuit and to grasp them as changes in the resonance frequency.
For example, a dielectric material for forming a capacitive component is mixed or dispersed with a material that changes the dielectric material itself as the temperature changes.

次いで、本発明の外的要因変化感知検出システムの実施の形態の1例を、図3に基づいて、簡単に説明する。
本例は、図2に示す第2の例のICタグにおいて、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子(セラミックコンデンサ等)220を、所定の温度範囲の下で、不可逆的な容量変化特性を示す外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子に代えた第2の例の変形例のICタグを使用したもので、個別に箱体等に入れ包装してICタグをつけた生鮮食物等の物品345を、冷凍庫である保管庫310に多数保管しておき、必要時に1個づつ取り出し使用する際、各ICタグの共振周波数の変化の有無を温度変化の有無としてとらえ、これにより、物品の所定の温度変化有無を判別し、所定の温度変化が無かったものを良品345A、所定の温度変化が有ったものを良品345Bとして、区分けするシステムである。
Next, an example of an embodiment of the external factor change detection system according to the present invention will be briefly described with reference to FIG.
In this example, in the IC tag of the second example shown in FIG. 2, an element (ceramic capacitor or the like) 220 whose capacitance is changed by a change in external factors is provided with an irreversible capacitance change characteristic under a predetermined temperature range. Articles such as fresh foods using the IC tag of the modified example of the second example replaced with an element whose capacity changes due to a change in external factors shown, and individually wrapped and packaged in a box or the like A large number of 345 are stored in the storage 310, which is a freezer, and when they are taken out and used one by one when necessary, the presence / absence of a change in the resonance frequency of each IC tag is regarded as the presence / absence of a temperature change. This is a system that discriminates the presence or absence of a temperature change and classifies a product having no predetermined temperature change as a non-defective product 345A and a product having a predetermined temperature change as a good product 345B.

本システムの動作の1例を、以下簡単に説明する。
冷凍庫である保管庫310に物品345を保管しておき、使用する際に、搬送ベルト360に載せ、1個づつ取り出し、順にゲート322を通過させ、共振周波数の変化の有無を異常感知リーダ320にて確認する。
異常感知リーダ320は、所定の温度変化があった場合の共振周波数である第1の周波数f32にて、通信ができるか否かで、できる場合を所定の温度変化があったとし、できなかった場合を所定の温度変化がなかったとするものである。
異常感知リーダ320は、第1の周波数f32(図4のf2に相当)にて、通信を行う電波送受信用ヘッドであるゲート322と処理部321を備え、結果を表示するディスプレイを設けたものがここでは使用されている。
異常感知リーダ320にて温度変化有りと判断された物品は、区分けされ、不良品345Bとして回収される。
所定の温度変化無しと判断された良品345Aは、そのまま進み、さらに、ゲート332を通過することにより、正常物品管理リーダ330により、個別情報の確認、関連処理が行われる。
正常物品管理リーダ330は、所定の温度変化が無かった場合の共振周波数である第2の周波数f31(図4のf1に相当)にて通信を行う電波送受信用ヘッドであるゲート332と処理部331を備え、ここでも確認、処理等の結果を表示するディスプレイを設けたものがここでも使用されている。
このようにして、所定の温度変化を受けなかった良品345Aのみを判別し、区分けして管理することができる。
An example of the operation of this system will be briefly described below.
The articles 345 are stored in the storage 310, which is a freezer, and when used, placed on the conveyor belt 360, taken out one by one, and sequentially passed through the gate 322, and the abnormality detection reader 320 is informed whether the resonance frequency has changed. To confirm.
The anomaly detection reader 320 was able to determine whether or not communication was possible at the first frequency f32 that is the resonance frequency when there was a predetermined temperature change. It is assumed that there was no predetermined temperature change.
The abnormality detection reader 320 includes a gate 322 that is a radio wave transmission / reception head that performs communication at a first frequency f32 (corresponding to f2 in FIG. 4) and a processing unit 321, and a display for displaying the result. It is used here.
Articles determined to have a temperature change by the anomaly detection reader 320 are classified and collected as defective products 345B.
The non-defective product 345A determined to have no predetermined temperature change proceeds as it is, and further passes through the gate 332, whereby the normal article management reader 330 performs confirmation of individual information and related processing.
The normal article management reader 330 includes a gate 332 and a processing unit 331 that are radio wave transmission / reception heads that perform communication at a second frequency f31 (corresponding to f1 in FIG. 4) that is a resonance frequency when there is no predetermined temperature change. Here, a display provided with a display for displaying the result of confirmation, processing, etc. is used here.
In this way, it is possible to discriminate and manage only non-defective products 345A that have not undergone a predetermined temperature change.

本例の変形例としては、本システムにおいて、タグとして、先に述べた第1の例で示した、外的要因の変化に対し履歴を示して不可逆的な容量変化特性を示す素子を使用した
タグを用いた場合のシステムが挙げられる。
この変形例の場合は、タグはICチップを持たないため、各物品の所定の温度変化の有無の判別と、それにもとづく区分けはできるが、各物品の個別情報の把握や、これに基づく処理を行うことは、ごく単純な場合を除いてほとんどできない。
As a modification of this example, in the present system, as the tag, the element showing the history with respect to the change of the external factor and showing the irreversible capacity change characteristic as shown in the first example is used. A system using a tag is listed.
In the case of this modification, since the tag does not have an IC chip, it is possible to determine whether or not each article has a predetermined temperature change and to classify based on it, but to grasp the individual information of each article and process based on this It can hardly be done except in very simple cases.

別の外的要因変化感知検出システムとしては、第1の例のタグや第2の例のタグを用い、通常使用温度とは異なる所定の異常温度におけるタグの共振周波数と同じ周波数で、所定の短い周期で、タグを感知するリーダによりタグの読み出しを行うことにより、共振周波数の変化の有無をとらえ、これにより、物品の判別、区分けを行う形態のシステムも挙げられる。
本発明の外的要因変化感知検出システムは、上記に限られるものではない。
例えば、外的要因変化により容量の変化する素子を、単に外的要因としての温度の変化に依存してタグの共振周波数を変化させる素子として用いた場合、先にも述べた通り、所望の温度変化の感知、即ち、異常温度の感知を、充分に短かい周期で周波数にてタグを感知するリーダによりタグの読み出しを行うことにより、共振周波数の変化としてとらえることができるが、異常温度を2以上とし、各温度に対応するタグの共振周波数を、それぞれ持つ、複数の異常検知用のリーダを用いて、タグと通信し、温度異常の有無を感知検出しても良い。
この場合は、より精確に温度変化を把握することができる。
As another external factor change detection detection system, the tag of the first example and the tag of the second example are used, and the predetermined frequency is the same as the resonance frequency of the tag at a predetermined abnormal temperature different from the normal use temperature. There is also a system in which the tag is read out by a reader that senses the tag at a short period, thereby detecting the presence or absence of a change in the resonance frequency, thereby identifying and classifying the article.
The external factor change detection and detection system of the present invention is not limited to the above.
For example, when an element whose capacitance changes due to a change in external factor is used as an element that changes the resonance frequency of a tag simply depending on a change in temperature as an external factor, as described above, the desired temperature The detection of the change, that is, the detection of the abnormal temperature, can be regarded as a change in the resonance frequency by reading the tag with a reader that detects the tag at a frequency with a sufficiently short period. As described above, a plurality of abnormality detection readers each having a resonance frequency of the tag corresponding to each temperature may be used to communicate with the tag to detect and detect the presence or absence of temperature abnormality.
In this case, the temperature change can be grasped more accurately.
