An intelligent management method for a container, in the transportation process of the container, an RFID lead seal is installed on the container, the RFID lead seal is read at any time by a networked RFID reader-writer, and the container is monitored and managed in real time, and the method comprises the following steps: (1) an RFID electronic lead seal is additionally arranged on a container cabinet door; (2) storing the delivery serial number of the electronic lead seal, the serial number of the container corresponding to the electronic lead seal, the serial number of the cargo delivery order of the container and the bar code for external checking into the electronic lead seal; (3) allocating a mobile terminal which has an RFID read-write function and is in wireless connection with an external background server for management personnel in the container transportation process; (4) in the container transportation process, a manager acquires electronic lead seal information by using a mobile terminal and sends the electronic lead seal information to a background server, and the background server manages the container through the mobile terminal. The invention realizes the requirements of automatic reading of container information, real-time change of state, real-time monitoring of front goods from the rear part and the like. The electronic lead sealing management system of the container completes real-time tracking and information transmission and updating of electronic dispatching, container lifting, container loading, port entering and exiting, container returning, container checking, serial number pairing, lock changing, container reversing and other functional operations in container transportation.

Although the logistics industry also adopts an active RFID electronic safety device scheme at present, the active RFID scheme has the advantages of longer read-write distance and capability of realizing real-time monitoring under the support of excellent equipment and technical conditions. However, in practice, it has been found that the active RFID electronic lead seal or electronic lock itself is expensive and the significant management cost and power supply instability caused by recycling and maintenance can cause the user to be burned out. Real-time monitoring theoretically can accurately determine the time and place of a container crime, but the expensive cost and the unreliability of information caused by the immature technology make the real-time monitoring difficult to be applied in a wide range. In the container transportation industry, the work of judging whether the lead seal of the container is good or bad is carried out at each link and a node where each link is handed over (for example, when a loading driver transports the container from a loading place to a port, the port needs to check the lead seal), if the problem of the electronic safety device is found at the node where the link is handed over, the container is opened in the link which is just completed, the carrier needs to be responsible for the problem, the fact that the container has a problem in the link can be determined through timely and reliable node monitoring, and a criminal suspect of the container crime can be found. The passive RFID electronic lead seal can completely meet the requirements of the safety monitoring of the container through analysis, the cost is greatly reduced, the passive RFID electronic lead seal is not required to be recycled after use, the unreliability worry of an internal power supply is avoided, the passive RFID electronic lead seal is easy to popularize and use, has strong confidentiality and is environment-friendly, and can work under various severe conditions.

Through the analysis and comparison, a passive RFID electronic lead sealing scheme is adopted, and a passive RFID electronic chip is successfully integrated in the system and matured. The great convenience and low cost brought by the disposable passive RFID electronic installation device enable people to practice and develop global container security systems very smoothly, and the system is favored by more global customers.

In the invention, when a container passes through each transit link junction point, the mobile terminal of the invention is required to be used for node scanning. The node scanning monitor can immediately know whether the scanned mobile terminal holder and the scanned electronic safety device are intact, the seal number, the box number, the scanning time, the GPS coordinates of the scanning place, the accurate map and the business information input in the lead seal on an information platform of the system, thereby providing great convenience for transportation management, and the information platform has the permission to the consignor and gives the consignor the right to know the state of the goods at each node. The mobile terminal of the invention preferably selects a mobile phone as an operation platform, is convenient to carry about, use and operate.

If the scanning is the boxing scanning after the first boxing is finished, the system can immediately and automatically inform the shipper when the containers are loaded by the shipper through a short message platform or a mail, and relevant information such as electronic safety device numbers, box numbers and the like is provided, so that the humanization of the system is well embodied, and the awareness of the shipper is improved.

If the electronic safety device is counterfeited or damaged, the data acquisition unit cannot effectively acquire the data, the scanner can automatically give an alarm to the information platform, and the information platform informs relevant parties of specific time and place when the electronic safety device is damaged and information of a scanner holder, so that the speed of responding to the emergency and understanding the situation is greatly increased.

In the invention, the RFID electronic lead seal of the container is important core hardware of a management system of the Internet of things of the container, integrates an RFID original code, a management bar code and an encryption number, integrates the RFID original code, the management bar code and the encryption number into a whole, integrates a container number and an equipment transfer order number into a whole, and forms a complete information carrier. When the electronic tag is matched with a container electronic tag, the electronic tag has the following functions:

(1) the anti-counterfeiting cannot be imitated, three kinds of information, namely a factory number stored in the RFID chip, a written secret number and a bar code sprayed outside the label, are stored in the electronic lead seal at the same time, and the combination of the three kinds of information ensures the global uniqueness and the non-modifiable performance of the lead seal number, so that a criminal party cannot manufacture the electronic lead seal with the same ID number. Therefore, the lead seal is the only standard for judging whether the container door is opened or not and whether goods are passively passed or not. Compared with the lead seal which is commonly used at present, the lead seal has incomparable advantages.

(2) The appearance can not be recovered, the inside of the electronic lead seal forms an electric appliance loop, and the outside is contained by engineering plastics. The screw rod is automatically disconnected after locking the steel rope, and the electronic lead seal cannot be manually opened under the condition of not damaging the appearance and the performance, and the performance and the appearance cannot be recovered if the lead seal is destructively opened. The existing lead seal cannot achieve the point.

(3) The custody responsibility of the shippers to the boxes and goods in each transportation stage can be determined, and whether the lead seal of the container is intact or not can be checked by using the wireless intelligent mobile terminal with the RFID reading and writing function and using a specific designated operator as a responsible person. Therefore, the node management and control of the whole process of container transportation such as packing, entering port, loading, unloading, leaving port, unpacking and the like are achieved. The system can verify and handover the effectiveness of the lead seal after the container is loaded, when the container enters a port, when the port is handed over and before the container is unpacked through the transmission and exchange of information, and if the lead seal is damaged, the lead seal can be automatically sent to a system platform for alarming. Secondly, wireless intelligent mobile terminal has realized the automatic acquisition of the interior data of container electronic tags, makes things convenient for the operation of the staff in the place ahead promptly, has guaranteed the accuracy and the authenticity of data again.

(4) The system can provide the information data of the whole process of container transportation for the law enforcement agencies such as customs, public security and the like at the first time, and can provide the information data of the first hand for the law enforcement agencies such as customs, public security, commercial inspection and the like to check various illegal behaviors in container transportation by implementing information and data sharing through the Internet. Customs, public security, inspection, quarantine, port area, shipping company, logistics enterprise, and the consignee can share information by grades through the system. And each container entering the port is subjected to whole-process tracking from the information of the container lifting, container loading, sealing, node transfer place and time, the container entering the port, the container leaving the port and the container opening at the destination. The system has real-time tracking and monitoring functions, and can check and track the running track of each ship name, voyage number, receiver, goods name, carrier, operator, lead seal number, truck driver loading, port entering and exiting time and vehicles through real-time information in the system, thereby being convenient for law enforcement to detect various illegal criminals.

(5) The system realizes the paperless transmission and handover of information and data, and as long as the generation of goods, the fleet inputs the contents of container equipment handover orders and packing lists into the system platform at the first time, and the required information and digital exchange can be automatically acquired, written and automatically handed over by the terminal in the system. Therefore, a plurality of working links such as reservation of entering and exiting containers at port bayonet can be effectively covered, and complicated computer bill and paper bill transmission in each operating link of a port area and a ship company can be omitted. The labor intensity of workers is greatly reduced, and the accuracy and the safety of data acquisition and transmission are improved.

(6) Better service is provided for the shipper, and information sharing and real-time tracking enable the shipper to know the track of the goods in the transportation process in time, thereby facilitating the control of the voyage and the arrangement of the subsequent work flow. When the electronic lead seal is unpacked, the system can remind a customer whether the electronic lead seal is intact or not in a short message mode according to the requirement after the customer packs and before the customer unpacks, and the problem is prevented. The terminal can provide the specific position of the container for the owner through the GPS, so that the owner can track and inquire the arrival place of the goods in real time. The phenomenon that the current transportation live is inquired everywhere and is neglected by a carrier is changed.

(7) The electronic tag provides great convenience for the management of the containers of the shipping company, and the containers have electronic data and are easier to collect and process various data. Meanwhile, the box loaded with specific goods can write specified information such as: the information that toxic articles are loaded at a certain day in a certain month in a certain year can prevent the boxes from shipping food and causing food pollution. In addition, the terminal can inquire the specific position and state of each container through a GPS, thereby facilitating the searching and management of various shipping companies, railways and other departments on the containers.

(8) The accuracy and the unchangeable nature of information, scan electron lead seal and electron case number simultaneously with the terminal, information automatic transmission to database, the system reads out corresponding case number and lead seal number automatically. The operation is convenient and correct, and the working efficiency is improved to the maximum extent. The electronic tags are fixed at the safe position of the container and can be reused for a long time, and after the client information is input into the system, an operator cannot change the electronic tags at will and must be modified by an authorized person. Not only avoids the possible error of the current order transfer, but also blocks the occurrence of purposeful order transfer modification events. The workload of logistics operators is reduced, and the reliability of information is improved.

(9) And information services such as real-time inquiry, statistics and the like of the information of each node are provided for a client, and the GPS coordinate information is used for displaying landmarks on a GIS map, so that accurate positioning and tracking are realized during handover of each node. When the intelligent terminal finds abnormal conditions at the transport node, the short message platform is driven to send alarm short messages to the consignee, the consignee and the related personnel, and the related personnel can immediately react to investigate and process the abnormal conditions in time. Meanwhile, the system can set different authorities for different client groups, and clients can inquire and count various required information and data on the system.
