Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the distribution of goods.
  • the delivery service has so far usually left a message in the mailbox suggesting a new appointment or specifying a pick-up location (for example the post office). If a new delivery date is agreed, the same problem arises, since the exact date can rarely be specified here and is usually only possible in a limited time frame, for example during normal working hours. Also, the possibility of picking up the goods at a given pick-up location is usually not a real alternative, since the responsible office generally also has limited opening hours at this pick-up location. In addition, picking up the goods is only possible with great difficulty after personal identification.
  • This task is solved by a procedure for the distribution of goods, in which the goods are deposited by a sender and secured with a lock and a common electronic key is assigned to the lock and a personalized end device of the owner and when the key is transmitted by the end device to the lock this key is compared with the key assigned to the lock and the goods are only released if the keys match.
  • the term "handover” is understood here to mean any person who is responsible for the handover of the goods, for example the seller himself or a delivery service commissioned by him.
  • the term “transferee” is generally the person who takes over the goods, for example the buyer or a person who is intended to collect the goods.
  • the personalized terminal can preferably be a mobile communication terminal, for example a mobile phone or a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), with its own unique personal identifier or with a corresponding chip card on which the personal identifier is stored.
  • the telephone number of the device can also be regarded as a personal identifier.
  • it can also be the chip card itself, for example a smart card, which is uniquely assigned to the transferee and which can be used in various devices or terminals.
  • the method according to the invention offers the possibility of storing the goods at any time and securing them in such a way that only an authorized person, namely the buyer himself or a person commissioned by him, can pick up the goods at any time.
  • an authorized person namely the buyer himself or a person commissioned by him
  • the highest possible security is security because the key is coupled with a unique identifier of the owner.
  • the process enables considerable time and personnel savings and thus cost advantages for delivery companies or mail order companies.
  • the invention has the advantage that he is independent of the opening times of a real business, particularly in the case of so-called e-commerce processes, or, in the case of delivery, of the delivery times or the opening hours of a pick-up location.
  • the electronic key is preferably transmitted to the owner's terminal using a remote data transmission method, for example via mobile radio.
  • This method has the advantage that due to the relatively good
  • both the communication terminal and the locker have corresponding transmitters or receivers.
  • transmitters or receivers are preferably short-range transmitters or receivers.
  • Bluetooth Bluetooth
  • the key it is also possible for the key to be output on a display of the mobile telephone and to be re-entered by the person picking it up using the keyboard on the device.
  • the transfer of the final ice cream to the end device of the owner takes place only after a predetermined transaction, for example a payment, has been carried out.
  • This security can also be done in such a way that the transferee receives the key before the payment is made and the lock only releases the goods after receiving an additional release signal from the sender. This means that the key must be transmitted correctly and the release signal required to open the lock.
  • the key consists of two parts and one partial key is immediately forwarded to the person collecting the key and another partial key is only forwarded to the person collecting the key when payment has been made securely.
  • the locker can only be opened with the key made up of these two parts.
  • information is also transmitted to the terminal at the same time as the key, from when and at which location the goods are ready for collection.
  • the key is reassigned to the locker for each deposit. This assignment can take place before, after or during the deposit.
  • the transmitter can freely select the key or, for example, a random key is automatically generated using a random generator and this key is transmitted to the transmitter, if necessary after a corresponding query. The latter can then forward the key to the recipient when ordering.
  • a unique personal identifier for example a credit card number of the owner, or a unique identifier of the terminal belonging to the recipient, for example the mobile phone number, is selected as the key and is assigned to the lock .
  • This procedure is particularly useful if the goods are ordered using a mobile phone or paid for with a credit card.
  • the key does not have to be sent from the transmitter to the device.
  • Further invalidation conditions can, for example, multiple incorrect transmission of the key to the lock, i. H. unsuccessful attempts to open it, or a lock command sent by the handover to the lock.
  • the key can be transmitted to the end device of the owner as well as to the lock by the handover via other data lines, for example the Internet or e-mail.
  • the method according to the invention can in particular be carried out with electronic locksmiths who control the locking device of a locker.
  • the goods are handed over to a corresponding, publicly accessible
  • Locker deposited and secured.
  • the transferee can open the lock at any time with the key transmitted to him and remove the goods.
  • Another possibility, in particular in the case of larger goods such as motor vehicles, which anyway have their own locking device, is to control this locking device itself by means of a corresponding electronic lock.
  • the invention therefore also includes a locking device for securing a good for carrying out the process according to the invention
  • it has a comparator that checks that the two keys match, and a releasing device that opens the locking device if the closing ice matches.
  • this locking device can then additionally have an invalidation device which invalidates the key when the specified invalidation condition occurs.
  • a random generator for generating a key, which is assigned to the lock via a corresponding input and can be transmitted to the transmitter via a corresponding output or can be queried by the latter.
  • a locking device has a receiver or transmitter for transmitting the electronic key over a data transmission path.
  • a correspondingly short-range receiver for example an infrared interface, is provided for the opening.
  • the locksmiths of a group of lockers can also be assigned a common electronic group key, all of these lockers with the common group key being assigned to a specific delivery company or a specific mail order company.
  • a group key it must of course be ensured when the key is transmitted to the locker system that the respective key only opens the desired locker. This can be done, for example, by an additional allocation code or the like.
  • this group key has the advantage that it is not necessary to work with constantly changing keys in the organization of the sender or the delivery service.
  • a terminal for carrying out the method must have a device for receiving, storing and forwarding a corresponding electronic key to an electronic lock, the device for forwarding the key to the lock preferably being a short-range transmitter.
  • the device or the named components of the terminal are designed such that they receive the key in a form that cannot be read by the user, save it and transmit it to the lock.
  • this terminal can have an invalidation device, for example with a watch or a payer, which, when a certain disability condition occurs, for example after a certain time or after a certain number of transmissions to the lock, possibly after a single use, the Key automatically deleted.
  • the handover can transmit this disability condition together with the key to the device.
  • the disability condition can also be preset in the device.
  • the device is preferably a mobile communication terminal, for example a cell phone or a PDA with a chip card, or the owner's chip card itself. It can be a normal SIM card on which the key from the mobile communication terminal is temporarily stored becomes. But it can also be a smart card, which itself is able to to control the corresponding desired functions largely independently of the communication transmitter used in each case.
  • the use of a smart card also has the advantage that better coding of the key can be achieved in a simple manner, so that secure transmission is possible without a third party being able to obtain the key by listening to the transmission.
  • the receiver of the device or the transmitter of the communication terminal can be a so-called transceiver, which enables both reception and transmission, so that when the key for opening is handed over, two-way communication between the locking device and the communication terminal can take place. Additional queries and checks are therefore possible for additional security before the goods are unlocked.
  • the payment conditions under which it can be opened and only after the execution of a payment instruction via the communication terminal, for example by a type of online bank, the key to the opening can be stored.
  • the electronic lock can also be used to store the desired data on, for example, certain servers that are publicly accessible via the Internet and to secure it by means of a corresponding electronic lock, whereby the acceptance of the goods, that is to say a download process in this case, is only possible on the respective server, a key is transmitted from a corresponding end device of the owner to the server or the lock there ,
  • This method has particular advantages in the delivery of large amounts of data, as is the case with music or video films is.
  • the transfer of such large amounts of data from a few central servers of a data producers is a re ⁇ tively high network load.
  • a customer orders any product using a mobile phone.
  • the seller deposits the goods in a locker and assigns a key to this locker via a corresponding data transmission link, for example a radio link or a data line.
  • This key assignment can also be made in advance, whereby the seller has reserved the corresponding locker and can store the goods in this locker at any time.
  • These lockers are in a publicly accessible area at all times.
  • the customer receives a message on his mobile phone, from which locker he can pick up his goods and at what time.
  • the electronic key is downloaded to the customer's mobile phone, for example by download, Java-appled or WAP.
  • the customer then goes to the locker at the desired time and takes the locker or the via his mobile phone appropriate short-range communication.
  • the customer goes to the locker at the desired time and takes the locker or the via his mobile phone appropriate short-range communication.
  • the second exemplary embodiment is an electronic rental car lock.
  • the donor i. H. the car rental center
  • a key is assigned to a special rental car lock.
  • This is, for example, the credit card number that the transferee, i.e. H. the lessee has specified when ordering the rental car and via which payment was made.
  • the rental car lock has a corresponding receiver for a mobile radio transmission, so that the car rental center uses the normal mobile radio network to assign this key to the car lock.
  • the transferee is also informed via the mobile radio network of where and when he can pick up his car. With a suitable device for the mobile phone, for example an infrared interface, the transferee can then open the car by transmitting his credit card number.
  • the personal key can also be a personal number on the SIM card or a smart card in the mobile phone, which is sent as a key directly at the push of a button without further input on the mobile phone. After the rental period has expired, the key is automatically validated in the lock of the motor vehicle, so that the lessee no longer has access to the car.
