The specific embodiment
The deposit position 50 of this device is many pavilions storehouses, divides the mail of class to put into these pavilion bin location respectively according to the predtermined category plan.This device also has a central processing unit 30 to control this sort program.This processor is connected to the dispensing device 40 at each deposit position place.These deposit positions also all have sensor 60 to survey this place whether to have new container.New container can be put into those positions, for example, takes turns the beginning of assorting process one, perhaps when a container has been expired the container that will replace sky.
Sensor can be, for example, a switch, in case the operator puts into deposit position with new container, he just manually carries out this switch.Signal of this switch triggering also passes to processor.So processor generates the identification information of this container, and this information is passed to attached dispensing device.This information just is sent to display 21 and shows there, so when this container next time was mobile, the operator can read this information, for example is its content and/or the next destination of transmitting.An alternative embodiment of the invention, shown information comprise part ciphered data at least, for example are bar codes.Each transhipment website at mail system can read in bar code with scanner and so on optical device.
In addition, sensor is also from actuating unit, such as light barrier element or motion sensor.When the operator is put into container in the investigative range of sensor, processor will be received signal and corresponding identification information be sent to the display of this container.Another embodiment of the present invention does not send its identification information, and just this information is sent out over when it is removed when new container is placed into deposit position.
The electronic tag of container has the electronic console of at least one optics or available eye detection.If, just cannot see the information of demonstration, so the most handy bi-stable display elements is done electric information carrier owing to go wrong at the situation power supply of monostable display system.Various technology can be used to do display, for example based on liquid crystal.When selecting suitable Display Technique, should consider conditions such as adaptability, shock resistance, service life, maintenance needs, opposing climate change, operating temperature range, write cycle time number and generation interval according to the occasion of using.
A kind of available Display Technique is ferroelectric liquid Crystal (FLCD) technology.Ferroelectric liquid crystals is that the smectic C-that is levied by hand or hand is levied doping forms mutually mutually.Because the inclination of the molecule longitudinal axis in smectic layer has just produced with the spontaneous polarization on this layer normal vertical direction.By applying, will make the incline direction of molecule and even the direction of polarization reverse with the opposite electric field of this polarization.Different but all stablize on these two switch attitude optics.Reflective FLCD consists essentially of: one is played polarizer, liquid crystalline phase and a backing speculum.Depend on smectic phase with respect to the incline direction that plays polarizer, just produced light attitude and dark attitude.
Another Display Technique comprises electrically addressable smectic liquid crystal display (EASL).This LCD is based on the electrooptic effect of smectic liquid crystal.The orientation of the smectic layer of Qing Xieing is not parallel to display unit, at this state incident light birefringence does not take place.It is transparent that display seems, perhaps, if its backing a coloured reflecting layer, it seems to be exactly the color in reflecting layer.If randomly arrange focal plane-taper seat territory to make scattered light on it, generate, will produce second attitude of feature.At this moment just there has been birefringence, the result, this scattered light looks like white, and if added dichroic dye, it seems to be exactly the color of this dyestuff.Making alive can make above-mentioned two states transform mutually.
Zenithal bistable device (ZBD) is based on the display of nematic liquid crystal.To the thread display of this specific type, on a substrate, induce the defective of thread preface with the ditch shape structure of a micrometer range, make depend on add DC electric field influence can set up a kind of of the two kinds of in-line arrangement states plane or thermal contours.
The BiNem technology is based on the bistability of two thread attitudes.Liquid crystal is present in planar orientation, is anchored on the substrate being subjected to strong edge, and anchors on another substrate being subjected to weak edge.With the current impulse of special use at the agent structure rotation at heel contact that does not reverse switch between 180 ° the agent structure two states.If the liquid crystal cells that has been equipped with a polarizer and has made arranged parallel is made backing with absorbing film, then present white not reversing attitude, and present black reversing attitude.
Cholesteryl liquid crystal display (CHLCD) is based on the filamentous liquid crystalline phase of reversing.Hand is levied thread phase or is levied the thread helical structure that forms molecular level mutually of adulterant preparation with hand.If the length of this spiral equals visible wavelength, then this light can be by reflection (on the spiral perpendicular to display surface) optionally or by transmission (on unordered a large amount of spirals).This two states all has long-time stability, and can forward another kind of state to from a kind of state by making alive.
Can also adopt for example Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) of high molecular display.This display comprises multilayer system, wherein presss from both sides with very thin macromolecule membrane between two electrodes.Can be made into very thin display like this and identify article to replace paper label.Here single also much of that with black and white display, but it is also useful to have a varicolored more complicated display.The advantage of this class OLED display is that they save electric energy than light-emitting diode display, thereby can prolong the service life of battery when being used for container identification.
Adopt electronics to print black device among the good embodiment of spy of the present invention and done display.From chemical aspect, it is a kind of miniature vessel, and the composition of two kinds of different colours of interior Sheng has opposite electric charge, and orientations takes place in electric field.Because the recurrence relaxation to disordered state after electric field is turned off, does not take place in the different sizes of particle and the viscosity in the system immediately.The information that the result writes on the electronic tag does not disappear, and at the most weakening of contrast can be taken place.
Electrophoretic display device (EPD) has good characteristic, especially for the requirement of mechanical aspects such as adaptability, shock resistance and withstand voltage stability.In addition, they provide enough bistable state performances, and the temperature range of their work has covered the weather conditions of common containment system transportation.And because operating voltage is relatively low, Switching Power Supply is also fairly simple.
One embodiment of the present of invention, electronic tag comprise that at least one wave point preferably advances two-way transfer of data and display comes with eyes optical detection information.This interface is preferably for example chip of a RFID assembly.In addition, also integrated be used for the logic circuit of data management so that data are passed to display from wave point.And, must comprise preferably that as label a power circuit components comes to provide required energy for each assembly of system.
Come to have proved favourable already by wave point for the required energy of work transmission of electronic tag.The data of accepting to pass to display by wave point are for example to utilize that a microcontroller that is connected to suitable display driver carries out.Depend on that the type of connection and the multiple circuit of these primary elements are connected, and can realize the variation of each conception of species of total system.
If adopt active (monostable) LCD to show, must provide permanent energy supply to display, this just requires integrated energy storage element for example battery and voltage integrator or electric capacity with suitable capacity.Data to be passed receive and directly are stored in the there with a RF interface.Relevant data presented is transferred to microcontroller, and its institute's display driver of being with is carried out and shown.During data transmit, from the RF signal, obtain energy and, guarantee the power supply supply of controller and display whereby to the energy storage unit charging with another circuit part.
This RF assembly directly obtains required energy from the RF signal.The required all component of this process preferably all has been integrated in the RFID chip.As a comparison, in order to obtain the complexity voltage height of other phase joined assemblies to a great extent that appends the required circuit of energy.
When adopting passive (bistable) display, can use the distortion of a kind of simplification of above-mentioned notion.Here still keep RF assembly, microcontroller and show and carry out required primary element.Yet, just can save energy storage units with passive demonstration.Be usually operated at the operating voltage higher than conventional LCD display because bistable state shows, the execution of display is different.Additional (passive) assembly can be adopted in order to obtain to carry out voltage, really component count can be increased although it is so.
For example, available two discrete RF assemblies are done passive (bistable state) demonstration.One of them is that the RFID-IC assembly has comprised from the required circuit of RF signal acquisition energy.Preferably be not coupled and carry out the structure that shows used that part of circuit with the RFID-IC assembly.So just can simplify second RF assembly and for the cooperation than the extra required component of high power supply voltage of passive demonstration is provided.The data that are sent to display like this can add by follow-up microcontroller and show that execution obtains showing then only by second RF assembly.
In another embodiment of electronic tag, all component except display is integrated in the integrated circuit ASIC of a special purpose, thereby keeps the number of system component the least possible.The target of this ASIC or CSIC (special custom IC) is as much as possible a kind of all functions of final required by electronic product all to be integrated in the single semiconductor.
At another special good embodiment of the present invention, it is a RFID transceiver 70 that the electronic console of the available eye detection of label is expanded, and it also can be connected to container.Like this, can store with the identical or different information of information that are presented on the electronic console at the RFID transceiver.Usually, the RFID transceiver is used for following the tracks of each container and generates transport statistics information, so that the information that will identify outside showing also can store.Dispensing device 40 also can have the device that information is sent to the RFID transceiver.
Data are sent to electronic console 21 preferably adopt the mode that to get in touch with (contact-free).For this purpose, dispensing device 40 has been equipped with the receiving system that emitter sends to data display.In an alternative embodiment of the invention, this data transmission procedure is that display by this container is with the direct contact between the communication means of dispensing device.For example, at deposit position 50, can provide an equipment to come receiving vessel and container is arranged into a position, the communication means of this dispensing device engages with the counterpart of display there, thereby set up a fixing contact, just can send data by it.
