Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for transporting objects, in particular flat mail items, by means of a mobile data memory.
  • transport attributes are needed. Examples of transport attributes are an identification of the destination as well as the weight and dimensions of the item.
  • the measurement of which value a transport attribute assumes for an object to be transported can be associated with considerable effort, for example because an indication of the destination is not machine readable and must be deciphered by a human and then entered. Therefore, the transport attribute is measured once, and the measured transport attribute value is reused later.
  • a long-standing option is to print or otherwise apply the measured transport attribute value to the article itself.
  • a coding of the read delivery address in the form of a bar code or a matrix code is printed on a mail item.
  • Another possibility is to apply a machine-readable identifier to the object and to create a data record with this identifier and the transport attribute value in a central database. To reuse the transport attribute value, the identifier is read and the central database is searched for the record with this identifier.
  • a method having the features of the preamble of claim 1 and an apparatus having the features of the preamble of claim 8 are made DE 102007057985 A1 and DE 102008017186 A1 known.
  • the methods described there provide a solution to the problem occurring in the case of fingerprinting that, when searching for the data record for an object, the feature value vector of the object is to be compared with a large number of feature value vectors of stored data sets. Therefore, it is proposed to label a means of transport in which items are transported.
  • a means of transport in which items are transported.
  • flat mail items are transported in containers.
  • This label includes a machine-readable identification of the means of transport.
  • the transport information is stored, which object is transported in which means of transport. This transport information is used to limit the search space to be searched when searching for the data record.
  • a method for transporting a transport container (“carrier 30") is described.
  • the transport container 30 has a data memory ("memory 60").
  • Each item 40A-40N has its own data memory (“memory devices 50A through 50N”).
  • a unique identifier In the data memory 50x of an object 40x, inter alia, a unique identifier, the destination address, transport requirements (temperature, humidity), details of the sender and receiver and a desired latest time of arrival are stored. This data is generated by a central server 90.
  • a container which is used to transport objects or can be used for this purpose, e.g. B. to transport mail.
  • the container comprises a rewritable electronic label with a display surface. On this display surface, information can be displayed in a human-readable form. For example, information about the contents of the container or about a sorting or transhipment station are displayed.
  • the container is z. B. to transport to this sorting station.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method having the features of the preamble of claim 1 and an apparatus having the features of the preamble of claim 8, which allow a transport of the object without a read access to a central database with the data sets is required ,
  • At least one measurable transport attribute and at least one measurable feature are specified.
  • At least one means of transport is used to transport the multiple items. This at least one means of transport has a mobile data memory which is transported by the means of transport.
  • This data record is stored in the mobile data memory of the means of transport.
  • the objects are brought into the at least one means of transport and transported by means of the means of transport to an intermediate point.
  • the invention saves the need to provide each item with a unique identifier. Rather, the object is identified by means of the feature value (s) obtained during retiming.
  • the same means of transport can generally be used for a plurality of successively carried out transport operations, wherein in each transport process in each case at least one object is transported. Therefore, the mobile data storage can be used again. If, on the other hand, a data store was used for each transported object, then this data store is generally no longer available after completion of the transport.
  • the need is saved to provide the means of transport with an identifier for the means of transport and to have to read this identifier later. Furthermore, thanks to the invention, it is not necessary to have to provide the object itself with a data memory or to provide per each item a data storage.
  • the method according to the solution and the device according to the solution save the need to have to provide read access to a central data memory in order to determine the stored transport attribute value for an object. Such a read access may not be possible at times because of line interruption or failure of a server or may require considerable time due to high data volumes. Rather, the at least one feature value and the at least one transport attribute value are stored in a mobile data memory, which is connected to the means of transport and transported by this means of transport.
  • the solution according to the method and the device according to the solution can be easily integrated into an existing sorting system, which performs fingerprint.
  • the additional equipment required is low.
  • the data in the data memory of the means of transport can be easily updated and corrected if necessary.
  • the mobile data storage at the transport does not necessarily have to have a display area to display information in a human-readable form.
  • the mobile data memory can be realized completely without a display area.
  • the data records that are stored in the mobile data storage relate to one item in the means of transport.
  • the data records can be evaluated fully automatically without a human needing to read information on a display area. Storing the records requires less energy and less time than writing information in a human-readable form on a display surface. It is possible, but not necessary, to additionally store information about the means of transport as a whole, eg. B. on a transport destination.
  • time stamps can be stored, for example the time when the means of transport reaches or leaves an intermediate point during transport.
  • the invention it is easier to check which objects are in the means of transport.
  • the data sets in the mobile data store can be compared with the objects that are actually in the means of transport without the need for an identifier of each item. This complicates subsequent manipulation.
  • the feature value and the transport attribute value of each item are measured before the item is placed in the transport. Then the measurements are easier to carry out than at a later time.
  • the step, the objects in the means of transport to spend, triggers the step to store the records for these items in the data storage of the means of transport.
  • a feature value vector is generated both during measurement and when measuring again.
  • This feature value vector distinguishes the object from the other transported objects. This eliminates the need to provide the item with a unique identifier or to find a single optically detectable feature whose values distinguish the items from one another. Apart from a unique identifier, there is usually no such unique feature.
  • At least one means of transport with a data memory and another means of transport without data memory are used. This embodiment avoids the need to provide all the means of transport used with mobile data storage at one go.
  • a means of transport with which objects are transported, has a data memory or not. If the means of transport has a data memory, the data records for the items that are transported in this means of transport are stored in this data memory of the means of transport. Otherwise, the data records are stored in a central fixed data memory.
  • data sets for the same objects are stored both in a data memory of a means of transport and in the central data memory.
  • This embodiment makes it possible to check the search result of the search among the data records in the mobile data storage at the means of transport and z. B. also to get the right results when subsequently removed or added items from the transport.
  • the objects to be transported are mail items, for example letters, postcards, catalogs or packages.
  • Each mail item is provided with details of the delivery address at which this mail item is to be transported.
  • These delivery address information acts as the destination of the mailing. The information has usually been attached to the mailing before the start of transporting. But it is also possible that they are attached only during transport.
  • Fig. 1 schematically shows an arrangement for carrying out the method with two sorting Anl-1 and Anl-2.
  • the first sorting installation Anl-1 has an output compartment Af-1, a first camera Ka-1, an OCR unit OCR-1, a first evaluation unit Aus-1 and a data memory DSE-1.
  • the second sorting system Anl-2 has a feeding device ZE-2, a second camera Ka-2, a second evaluation unit Aus-2 and a reader LG-2.
  • Each mail item goes through a sorting system at least twice. It is possible for a mail item to pass through the same sorting system several times or to pass through a sorting system three times.
  • the sorting plant used in the first pass through is the first sorting plant Anl-1
  • the sorting plant used in the second pass through is the second sorting plant Anl-2 or a third sorting plant.
  • Fig. 1 The z mail items P-1,..., Px, Py,..., Pz pass through the first sorting system Anl-1.
  • the first x mail items P-1,..., Px then pass through the second sorting system Anl-2 and the remaining mail items pass through a further sorting system (not shown).
  • the first camera Ka-1 of the first sorting installation Anl-1 in each case generates a computer-accessible image Abb of each mail item P-1,..., P-z. This image Abb is evaluated to determine the delivery address of the mail item.
  • At the first pass at least the delivery address is determined. It is possible that further parameters are measured, for example the weight or a dimension of the mail piece or with which franking the mail piece is provided.
  • the OCR unit OCR-1 of the first sorting system Anl-1 preferably attempts to automatically determine the delivery address by means of "optical character recognition" (OCR). If this fails, a person reads the delivery address and gives at least a part of the delivery address, eg. As the postal code, in a video encoding, not shown. The sorting system subsequently discharges the mail item into one of a plurality of output compartments depending on the recognized delivery address.
  • OCR optical character recognition
  • the first container Beh-1 is provided with an identification of this intermediate point ZE-2.
  • This marking is preferably applied to the container, for example in the form of a label, in a machine-readable form and in a human-readable form.
  • the sorting system Anl-1 displays on a display surface in the vicinity of the output tray Af-1 a description of an intermediate point.
  • the label is provided manually or by a printer with the marking of this displayed destination.
  • an electronic label is used, as for example EP 1942451 A1 is known.
  • This electronic label has an electronic display area. Electricity is needed only to describe this display area, but not to permanently display a string once written on the display area. A writing device of the sorting system labels this label.
  • the first sorting system Anl-1 fills the output tray Af-1.
  • the output tray Af-1 is again emptied into a container, completely or at least partially.
  • This container may be the same first container Beh-1 or another container as that by first emptying the output tray Af-1.
  • the first container Beh-1 can be reused for several transport operations.
  • the x mail items P-1,..., P-x are transported in a first transport operation and the remaining mail items P-y,..., P-z are transported in a second transport operation.
  • the remaining mail items P-y, ..., P-z are transferred to a further container Beh-2 and transported into this further container Beh-2 to another intermediate point.
  • This further intermediate point may be the same as that on which the first container Beh-1 was transported, or another intermediate point.
  • Each intermediate point in the exemplary embodiment is a feeding device to a sorting system, for example the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting system Anl-2.
  • a feeder includes a "feeder" with a singulator.
  • the container with the mail items is transported to this intermediate point and emptied there.
  • the mail items from the first container Beh-1 are fed to the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting system Anl-2.
  • the camera Ka-2 of the second sorting installation Anl-2 in turn generates a respective computer-ready image of each mail item that passes through the second sorting installation Anl-2.
  • This second sorting system Anl-2 determines the delivery address of each mail item that the first sorting system Anl-1 has read as described above. Subsequently, the second sorting system Anl-2 in turn discharges each mail item into one of the output compartments depending on the delivery address. The transport of the mail items to this delivery address is triggered.
  • the mail items P-1, ..., Px, Py, ..., Pz are discharged into the output tray Af-1 of the first sorting system Anl-1.
  • the mail items P-1, ..., Px are then spent from the output tray Af-1 in the first container Beh-1.
  • the first container Beh-1 with the mail items P-1, ..., Px is transported to the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting system Anl-2. There, the container Beh-1 is unloaded, and the mail items P-1, ..., Px are fed via the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting system Anl-2.
  • Each possible delivery address is assigned to a delivery area. All mail items to the same delivery area are ejected into the same output bin each time they pass. It is possible for a mail item to pass through the same sorting system several times, for example because the number of output bins is less than the number of predetermined delivery areas. In this case, an "n-pass sequencing" is preferably carried out, for example EP 0948416 B1 known. After the first pass, the mail items that the first sorting system Anl-1 has discharged into an output tray are transferred to a container. The container is transported to a feeder of the first sorting system Anl-1, and the mailpieces are fed to the first sorting system Anl-1 for a second pass.
  • the respective delivery address of a mailpiece acts as a transport attribute value of this mailpiece.
  • Further transport attribute values may be the weight of the mail piece or the value of a franking with which the mail piece is provided.
  • the classic approach to avoid this is that the first sorting system prints a coding of the delivery address on the mailpiece, z. B. in the form of a bar pattern (barcode).
  • the second sorting system Anl-2 and every other sorting system reads this bar pattern.
  • the first camera Ka-1 As soon as an item of mail Ps passes through the first sorting system Anl-1, the first camera Ka-1 generates at least one computer-accessible image Abb of this item of mail Ps.
  • the first evaluation unit Aus-1 generates a feature value vector V for this item of mail Ps, for which the first evaluation unit Aus-1 evaluates the image Abb of the mail item Ps.
  • the first sorting system Anl-1 measures the postal item Ps and, for each predefined characteristic, the respective value that this characteristic assumes for the item of mail Ps.
  • the first evaluation unit Aus-1 in the first sorting installation Anl-1 generates a feature value vector for this mailpiece. For N given characteristics, this feature value vector consists of N feature values.
  • the first evaluation unit Aus-1 generates in each case a computer-accessible identification of each transport attribute value for the mail item Ps, that is to say in particular an identification for the recognized and deciphered delivery address and optionally for the weight and for one dimension.
  • the first evaluation unit Aus-1 generates a data record for the mail item Ps, which comprises the feature value vector with the N feature values and the respective identifier of each transport attribute value.
  • the data record comprises an internal identifier for the mailpiece.
  • this internal identifier is not printed on the mail item in the exemplary embodiment.
  • the first container Beh-1 is provided with a first mobile data memory Sp-1.
  • This data memory Sp-1 is permanently connected to the container Beh-1.
  • data can be stored and read again via contact interface or by radio.
  • the data memory is designed as an RFID chip.
  • the first sorting system Anl-1 sets a start signal as soon as the first mail item P-1 reaches the output tray Af-1. An operator then places the first container Beh-1 on a support surface. The first sorting system Anl-1 or also the system operator spends the x mailpieces P-1,..., P-x into the first container Beh-1. Then, the first sorting system Anl-1 sets off an end signal, and the operator takes the first container Beh-1 from the support surface. Between the generation of the start signal and the generation of the end signal, the first sorting system Anl-1 discharges exclusively the x mail items P-1,..., P-x into the output tray Af-1, but no further mailpieces. As a result, the sorting system Anl-1 "knows" which items of mail are in the first container Beh-1.
  • the first evaluation unit Aus-1 compiles the x data sets for the x mailpieces P-1,..., P-x into a table or a database.
  • the data storage unit DSE-1 stores this table or database in the mobile data memory Sp-1 of the first container Beh-1.
  • the data storage unit DSE-1 additionally stores an identifier for the first sorting system Anl-1 and an identification of the current time stamp time stamp in the mobile data memory Sp-1 on the first container Beh-1.
  • the path of the container Beh-1 and the actual transport times can be reconstructed.
  • the first container Beh-1 is placed on the support surface such that the data memory Sp-1 on the first container Beh-1 in conjunction with a contact interface of the data storage unit DSE-1 device.
  • An indicator light or similar device indicates whether or not the first data memory Sp-1 is actually in a position in which the data storage unit DSE-1 can store data via the contact interface in the data memory Sp-1. If this is the case, then the table or the database is stored in the data memory Sp-1.
  • the data memory Sp-1 is placed on the first container Beh-1 in the vicinity of a transmitter belonging to the data storage unit DSE-1.
  • the transmitter transmits without contact the table or database to the mobile data memory Sp-1.
  • the first container Beh-1 is transported to the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting system Anl-2.
  • the x mail items in this first container Beh-1 are removed from the container Beh-1 and fed to the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting system Anl-2.
  • the x mail items are separated and pass through the second sorting system Anl-2.
  • the second camera Ka-2 generates in each case a computer-accessible image of each mail item P-1,..., P-x.
  • the second evaluation unit Aus-2 generates in each case a feature value vector V for each mailpiece in that the second evaluation unit Aus-2 evaluates the image from the second camera Ka-2.
  • This feature value vector V of the mail item Ps is compared with the feature value vectors of data records in the table or the database which are stored in the mobile data memory Sp-1 of the first container Beh-1. In each case a degree of agreement between the feature value vector V of the mail item Ps and a stored feature value vector V is calculated. The stored feature value vector which provides the largest match measure is determined and selected. As a result, that data record is found which, during the passage of the mailpiece through the first Sorting Anl-1 was created and comes from the same mailing Ps. The second sorting system Anl-2 and each further sorting system uses the delivery address and the further transport attribute values of this data record to transport this mailpiece.
  • the reader LG-2 reads in the data records stored in the data memory Sp-1.
  • these data sets are stored at least temporarily in a data memory of the second sorting system Anl-2 in order to be able to search quickly for the correct feature value vector.
  • the reader LG-2 reads in the data either via a contact interface or contactlessly from the mobile data memory Sp-1.
  • the steps just described are now performed accordingly for the further mail items P-y, ..., P-z.
  • the first sorting system Anl-1 has ejected these further (z-y + 1) mail pieces after the x mailings P-1,..., P-y into the output tray Af-1.
  • the first evaluation unit Aus-1 has in each case generated a data record for each mail item, and this data record is stored.
  • the mail items P-y, ..., P-z are transferred to a further container Beh-2 and are taken to the feeder ZE-2 of the second sorting installation Anl-2 or to a feeder ZE-3 of a third sorting installation.

  • the transport attribute values of these determined records are used for further transport.
  • the second container Beh-2 is also connected to a mobile data memory, namely the data memory Sp-2.
  • the data storage device DSE-1 stores the data records for the mailpieces Py,..., Pz in the mobile data memory Sp-2, and the reading device LG-2 - or a reader of the third sorting system - reads in the data records from the second data memory Sp-2.
  • Fig. 2 shows an alternative embodiment.

  • the alternative embodiment will be explained with reference to the example that the first container Beh-1 has a mobile data memory Sp-1, but a third container Beh-3 has no data memory.
  • the third container Beh-3 preferably has a different color or a different deviating marking than the first container Beh-1, so that it can be seen immediately that only the first container Beh-1 has a mobile data memory.
  • the first container Beh-1 is placed in such a position on the support surface of the output tray Af-1 that the data storage unit DSE-1 can store the x records of the mail items P-1, ..., P-x in the mobile data memory Sp-1.
  • the third container Beh-3 only needs to be placed on the support surface in such a way that the remaining (z-y + 1) postal items can easily be transferred to the third container Beh-3.
  • the data storage device DSE-1 or the further data processing system DVA-1 then stores the data records for the (z-y + 1) postal items transported in the third container Beh-3 in the central database DB.

  • a respective degree of agreement between the feature value vector of the mail item Ps and each feature value vector of a data record in the mobile data memory Sp-1 is calculated. If this measure of conformity lies below a predetermined limit, then the feature value vector from the mail item Ps is additionally compared with feature value vectors of data records in the central database DB. If the match is greater than or equal to the bound, then this comparison with records does not occur in the central database DB. In the first case, the one record whose feature value vector has the highest match size is determined. This embodiment avoids errors in the event that in the first container Beh-1 additional mail items are, for which no record was stored in the data memory Sp-1.
