DE10208283A1 - Device and method for identification and subsequent management of bales of materials, involve use of transponder substitutes which are so constituted that they can be processed together with materials - Google Patents

Abstract

The device and method for identification and subsequent management of bales of materials in production and/or recycling processes involve use of transponder substitutes which are so constituted that they can be processed together with materials. An Independent claim is also included for a plastic card with fixing means and data in the role of a transponder surrogate.

Description

The result of a (plastic) recycling process are so-called bales of recyclables, which before they are fed into the production cycle, temporarily stored and deposited. to Distribution of each bale from farm to farm (grinding mill customer, for example) is one unambiguous labeling required - finally, they represent not insignificant values, e.g. B. 1500 marks / bale and more. For this purpose, transponders are used, which are attached to each bale to be pinned.

disadvantage

1. The transponders become contaminated again and again or during rough transport the bales, for example on the trucks, sometimes damaged, 2. they also fall off the bale and get lost - and, with them the bale itself, at least in terms of inventory. 3rd must the Forklift drivers get off the forklift to read the code of the bale in question via the reader read in digitally. 4. reading errors occur again and again due to "signal thunderstorms". And - 5th, the price for a transponder is around 5 Marks. The solution:

Smart one-way labeling instead of reusable labeling that is prone to febrile pain

The inventive concept replaces this in several ways defective transponder insert when marking the bale by a Plastic card - main claim number 1, in a fixed configuration, d. H. Size, strength, Shape (e.g. analogue radius of the standard bale), labeling, embossing, coding etc., Subclaims 4 and 7-7 only as an example, with a specific code - all advance, EAN barcode - sub-claim Zif. 4 - or, reference state-specific identity Code whose individual defined digits are detailed within the sequence of digits for the first time Provide information about the material (e.g. PET), time of production, weight - etc. etc., Subclaim, para. 5, which is attached to each individual bale, preferably irreversibly, Subclaim cf. 6, consequently, no longer suddenly during the distribution process get lost.

Not enough.

In contrast to the transponder, which is not together with the bale of the production cycle can be fed in, the plastic card allows - by the way, together with the fixation medium from it Material as the card itself - subordinate claim Zif. 6, this much more economical and more comfortable way very well.

result

The security of data collection "around every single bale" is optimized, not least, what the synergetic efficiency between data collection tools, that is, in the Recycling cycle together with plastic cards with code or identity code that go under the recycling bale one, and the software on the other hand, in the entire "digital recycling process". Because that Billing, from the warehouse to financial accounting, is always so secure and reliable, like data acquisition before.

Claims (9)

1.Device including procedures for labeling, digital administration, distribution and recycling, i.e. the digitally backed, also controlled and sponsored return of bales of recyclable materials into the production cycle, in particular, bales of recyclable materials inside and / or outside of a recycling company or with the physical and / or digitally controlled recycling of recyclable materials, production technology and / or business unit, characterized in that
instead of a transponder, a transponder surrogate is used for the labeling of each individual bale of recyclable material which, due to its nature and material quality, as well as due to its physical parameters, namely, material composition and dedication, is capable of in the individual recyclable material bales in the recycling process itself, alternatively, in a processing stage upstream or downstream of the recycling process, including intermediate, final processing or finishing stages, alternatively, in a processing stage, also intermediate, final processing or finishing stage upstream or downstream processing or upgrading stages, in part or as a whole, also, to go down without leaving any residue, that is, absolutely neutral in terms of resources,
that the material bale or, with a specified material segment inside or outside the bale (bale packaging, carrier etc.) or, with several specified material segments inside or, outside the bale (bale packaging, carrier etc.), immediately one physical unit that results in an "absolute material consistency", alternatively, in an almost material-identical or, material cycle-compatible raw, auxiliary or material conglomeration. 2. transponder surrogate, main claim number 1, characterized in that it is a Disposable data medium or a single-use medium a material, or alternatively, one One-way data medium or one-way medium several materials, d. i.e. to a Material conglomerate. 3. one-way data carrier or one-way medium, Sub-claim number 2, characterized in that it is doing one Plastic card, alternatively to a Card is made of several plastics. 4. card made of one or more plastics, Sub-claim number, 3, characterized in that it is by one Plastic card that complies with a (standard) standard (actual Norm) - also, a norm according to DIN or DIN-ISO, or, no standard norm (i.e., a quasi-norm) is accessible with a Code that corresponds to a (standard) standard (actual Norm) - also, barcode, also a preference code analogous to EAN, also, EAN barcode or, none (Standard) standard (i.e., a quasi-standard) is accessible, and the, moreover, in its physical emulation, also physical Composition (consistency), especially what the Color pigment choice-physical, i.e. i.e., also and just the dye, also plural, that is, the Paint application "in itself" also comes in line with the Color tone (alternatively, standard color chart according to DIN 5033, what both the mapping and the Accessibility of the assignment "as such", the requirements, especially the parameters according to main claim, clause 1, fulfilled or to be felt is able. 5. Plastic card with ("in itself") dedicated color coding, sub-claim number 4, characterized in that it is assigned to a specific bale of recyclable material based on its individual code, or, alternatively, is a bale of recyclable material with a specific one - or quasi-standardized reference state is assigned, which, also, in the form of the parameters formed from it (alternatively, EDIN 19 226 T5), is also, and especially, directly reflected in the code of the recycling bale, also the second or any further code of the recycling bale , ie, alpha numerically (digitally) reflected (alternatively, DIN 1343 and DIN 5485), also in such a way that it a) can be recognized or derived from a specific sequence of digits repeated under the barcode, or, b) "clearly divided" on the basis of the "fixed digits" within an OCR-A sequence of digits, also separated in each case by dots or Kornmata, with each date, ie each digit printed in digits and separated by dots or commas within the the data record specified on the card also allows the reference state of the bale in question or parts of it that are relevant for processing and processing, to be read with the naked eye,
whereby, by the specified bale recyclable content (e.g. PET = "1" - 1st digit of the digit sequence), also, its weight (2nd to 4th digit of the digit sequence - etc.), size (analog, actual - or quasi-standard) etc. obtained and structured, ie, both digitally and mnemotechnically readable recyclable identity code, takes the place of the "physical composition of the recyclable bale in written form", hence the "mere" identity code of the bale provides immediate and detailed information about its physical composition and / or weight (kg) and / or size (m ³ ) and / or time of manufacture (year, month, day). 6. Card together with usually numerically assigned code or, with recyclable identity code, ie with the reference state of the bale of recyclable material in question. 5, characterized in that
the card is attached to the bales, is also irreversibly attached, also, with the aid of a medium, also a cord, also a cord, is also attached, the material composition of which meets the requirements, in particular, the parameters according to main claim Zif. 1, is identical, is also, irreversibly fastened - alternatively, is irreversibly fastened with an adhesive whose composition also meets the requirements of main claim Zif. 1, is identical, so that, precisely because of this, the bale of recyclable material in question is now identified unambiguously - and, identifiable, also, also and evenly, digitally identifiable. 7.
