Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of interactive communication and is particularly aimed at catering with so-called “table service” as opposed to that called “self-service”.
  • Such a type of table service requires a large number of service personnel, subject to very many back and forth between the pantry, generally the kitchen and the clientele.
  • the intervention offers, in this field of catering, an interactive electronic system between a menu card available to the user and a central management station and the connection between these two elements is made by means without wire.
  • the invention will further propose a simplification brought to the information processing process as a correlate to an increase in their processed quantity.
  • the central management station is understood to be the usual catering services such as: the kitchen, the pantry, the supply center, the cash register ... and the wireless link all known means of aerial transmission such as radio waves, ultra and infrared, infrared, induction lines ...
  • the menu card available to a customer proposed in the invention includes a usual area where the designation of dishes is expressed in clear.
  • this menu card is available to an informed user such as a server and the designation of the dishes is coded.
  • the menu card has little different proportions from those currently encountered and can include around 120 different dishes in repeat orders and also present four function keys "VALIDATION - SUITE CLAIM - ADDITION" plus a cumulative display of the price dishes leading to the final addition.
  • the keyboard is alphanumeric with a line of display lights, a line of command keys, a code directory and the transceiver.
  • the interactive system comprises: a menu card marked 1 as a whole and which includes an active central part 2 for processing information and a transmission-reception interface 7 and its conventional equipment such as at least one printer 8, a central microcomputer 9 and a monitor with the interface 6.
  • connection means 5 such as hertzian between said transceiver interfaces 6 and 7 ensures the transmission of data.
  • Figures 2 and 3 show in top and side view the card 1 with its areas 11 ... of plain labeling of dishes, its lines of display lights 12 ... and its lines of keys + 13 ... and -14 ... which will be discussed in more detail later.
  • a set of four additional indicator keys 15, 16, 17 and 18 concerns the indications "Validation”, “Continuation”, “Complaint”, and “Addition” and a display of the cumulative price of dishes rep. 19 completes the set.
  • the keys are slightly protruding or even touched and the transceiver is housed in card thickness such as 20.
  • the diagram according to fig. 4 shows the interconnections between the various elements of the active central part 2 organized around a microprocessor 21 preferably of type Z 80 to 64 KO with its server components: RAM, ROM, Interfaces ...
  • the diagram according to fig. 5 shows the control and display part of the key lines + 13 ..., - 14 ... and of display 12 and of independent key-display assemblies 15, 16, 17 and 18 with the totalizing display 19.
  • Each key closes two circuits; one generating an ASTB interrupt signal controlling the direction of operation of the interface 24 and the other; generating a specific coding specific to the functioning of the system.
  • Pressing a given + key (13 n for example) will generate an even 8-bit binary coded signal.
  • Pressing a given key (14 n for example) will generate an odd 8-bit binary coded signal.
  • This binary code reconstitutes, on the one hand, the subroutine address (either increment or decrement) and on the other hand, the address of the data.
  • an interruption is generated to store the command by the line rep.33 generating an edge on ASTB; said interruption command possibly resulting from the second contact of the button 13 n concerned and represented in section in the lower part of the drawing in FIG. 5.
  • the principle requires, with a 64 KO microprocessor, a maximum of 256 keyboard keys (for example 120 dishes X 2) (+ -) with 16 keys available for appendices (validation %)
  • a source program must be drawn up from the information in plain text which must be typed on the keys and views on the corresponding indicators.
  • the object program which derives from the source program as defined in principle above can be developed in various assembler programs as is known in the art.
  • central station --- menu card has priority in order to erase from the dishes dishes that are no longer available on the menu or that are put on hold.
  • the link 5 between the menu card 1 and the central station 4 is effected by two transceivers located in the interfaces 6-7 according to the diagram in fig. 1 and housed in 20-35.
  • the interactive system identified 100 as a whole essentially comprises an alphanumeric keyboard 106, a line of display lights 112, a line of control keys 115, a code directory 110 and the transceiver.
  • the transceiver 120 is located in the transmission-reception interface 107 and its function is analogous to that described previously, subject to a different supply as will be explained below.
  • control part 103 includes elements similar to those previously described but different in terms of their functional capacity, which will also appear in the following text.
  • the central part 102 comprises a processing means with increased capacity such as a 16-bit or even 32-bit microprocessor, which constitutes the essential difference between the plain text version and the coded version.
  • a microprocessor 121 with its own program 102 1 , its logistics 121 2 and its combinatorics 121 3 including in particular the necessary interfaces and addresses.
  • its capacity is large of 160 KB for example, it is seen that it suffices to add a ROM memory 122 and a RAM memory 123 to make the complete processing unit.
  • ROM and RAM functions are incorporated or reduced consumption from -15 to -20% with CMOS circuits.
  • control part 103 are the alphanumeric keyboard 106, the display LEDs 112 connected to a transcoder-decoder 127 and the keyboard 115 connected to the RAM memory 123.
  • the resulting links are therefore simplified and can be summed up only by the direct connections of said microprocessor 121 to the transceiver 120, to the transcoder-decoder 127 and to the ROM memories 122 and RAM 123.
