Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a system for monitoring the transport of goods in transit, in particular special pieces of luggage.
- pieces of luggage are transported, for example, in a cargo space or in luggage compartments, while bicycles are to be parked in certain bicycle compartments or storage areas in trains, for example.
- a transport item is marked with an RFID transponder and the transport item is detected using the RFID transponder during loading and / or during the transport of the trans port good.
- transport information that characterizes the transport of the transported goods is determined and the determined transport information is output.
- An RFID transponder within the meaning of the invention is in particular a communication component of an RFID system that picks up incoming radio signals and automatically responds to or forwards them.
- This is preferably a passive RFID transponder which is set up to take the energy required to answer or forward the incoming radio signals from the incoming radio signals.
- Transport information within the meaning of the invention is in particular information which specifies at least one transport condition and / or at least one transport status.
- Transport information can, for example, provide information on the number and / or type of transport goods transported, in particular together with the transport goods marked by the RFID transponder.
- the transport information can also contain details of the location and / or the time at which the transported goods were recorded. It is also conceivable that the transport information specifies a current means of transport.
- the transport information can also contain information on whether the transported goods with a valid, z. B. is transported by paying a transport fee obtained transport authorization or not.
- Outputting information within the meaning of the invention is, in particular, reproducing the information, e.g. B. by display gen, display, playback and / or the like.
- a corre sponding interface via which the information can be output, can be designed in this case, for example, as a user interface, z. B. as an output device such as a display, loudspeaker, printer and / or the like.
- the interface can be designed, for example, as a communication interface, in particular as a hardware interface or software interface, e.g. B. as an air interface, system bus and / or the like.
- One aspect of the invention is based on the approach of providing transport goods, in particular pieces of luggage such as bicycles or suitcases, with an RFID transponder in order to detect them wirelessly and derive transport conditions and / or transport states from the information resulting therefrom, in particular immediately to be able to.
- the information obtained by the detection can be output, in particular automatically and / or in real time, e.g. B. to inform a Benut zer or to further process the information, z. B. prepare to be able to.
- Such a transport condition can, for example, the number of common, z. B. in a means of transport such as a train or in a section of the means of transport such as a bicycle compartment, relate to transported goods.
- a transport status can relate, for example, to a transport authorization for the goods being transported.
- an RFID transponder is particularly advantageous because it enables the marked transport goods to be recorded automatically, quickly and easily, for example allowed during loading and / or during transport.
- a train attendant can carry a detection device in the form of an RFID reader, which is set up to transport goods such as bicycles, suitcases, wheelchairs, ski bags, golf bags, strollers or other bulky items of luggage that travelers are not in their immediate vicinity Can or are allowed to park seats and / or for which a separate transport fee is to be paid, to be recorded using RFID transponders attached to them.
- the train attendant walks through the train and passes the marked goods.
- an inventory of the goods transported on the train can be created or made available fully automatically and / or transport authorizations can be checked.
- an RFID transponder also makes it possible to localize the marked transport goods along a travel route. It is conceivable, for example, that the transport information contains an indication of the location and / or the time at which or at which the transported goods were recorded. As a result, the owner of the goods to be transported has the option, for example, of using a corresponding software module on his mobile device, to track the journey of his goods in transit.
- transported goods information is read out.
- the transport goods information is preferably derived from the RFID transponder read out.
- a transport goods number can be read out, on the basis of which the transported goods can be identified, in particular assigned to an owner or traveler.
- a description of the goods to be transported which characterizes the goods to be transported or its properties, can be read out.
- the transport information is preferably determined on the basis of the transported goods information that has been read out. This makes it possible to derive particularly differentiated information on transport conditions.
- the cargo information can contain, for example, information on dimensions and / or weight of the cargo. From this it can be deduced how much space a transported item takes up in a luggage compartment, for example. Accordingly, it can also be determined how much capacity is available for further transport goods.
- the transport goods information can map a transport authorization, so that when the transport goods information is read out, it can be checked quickly and easily whether the marked transport goods have been released for transport.
- the cargo information can correspond to a ticket for the cargo or at least ticket-like information, e.g.
- the control of such ticket data, for example whether a transport fee has been paid, can be carried out particularly reliably, quickly and automatically, for example while a train attendant is walking past or even while the goods are being loaded, for example by activating a corresponding detection device a hatch or door of the trans port means is attached.
- the transport goods information is linked to the RFID transponder.
- the goods information can be clearly assigned to the corresponding transport.
- the link is preferably established before the goods to be transported are marked.
- the goods information and the RFID transponder are first made available and linked to one another.
- the goods to be transported are only then marked.
- the goods information such as the description of the goods in transit, can be provided when a ticket is purchased and assigned to an RFID transponder.
- the RFID transponder can then simply be attached to the transported goods. Because the link is carried out before the marking, the risk can be reduced in a simple manner that the transport information is linked to a wrong RFID transponder.
- the transport goods information is stored on the RFID transponder when it is linked.
- the RFID transponder can have a corresponding memory. Saving the goods information on the RFID transponder enables a particularly reliable link.
- an identifier can be saved on the RFID transponder.
- the transported goods information is then preferably linked to the RFID transponder via the identifier.
- the identifier can be a serial number, for example act of the RFID transponder, which is read out when the trans port goods are detected, that is, sent out by the RFID transponder and received with a corresponding detection device, for example in the form of an RFID reader.
- the cargo information is preferably stored in a database together with the corresponding identifier. This allows a particularly convenient management of the good transport information. For example, it is thus easily possible to assign a different item of transport information to an RFID transponder, in particular without the relevant RFID transponder having to be read out and / or written to.
- the cargo information contains destination information, in particular address data.
- the destination information here preferably characterizes the destination of the goods to be transported.
- a reliable check can be made by reading out the goods information to determine whether the goods are still on the correct travel route. If necessary, the goods to be transported can also be sorted using the address data during loading.
- the cargo information contains the travel data of an owner of the cargo. In this way, for example, in the event that the goods are lost by their owner on a journey, secure delivery to the owner can be made possible.
- the transport information characterizes a transport capacity.
- the transport information is preferably determined on the basis of a detection of several transport goods marked with corresponding RFID transponders. For example, the transported goods detected in this way are counted and the resulting number is compared with a maximum number of transported goods transported, if necessary in a given transport section of a means of transport. This can considerably simplify the transport logistics.
- the number of bicycles parked in a bicycle compartment of a train can be recorded automatically as the train driver passes by using RFID transponders attached to the bicycles. From this it is easy to deduce how many more bicycles can still be transported by the train. This transport information can be issued or taken into account, for example, via a booking portal or at a ticket machine when selling further (bicycle) tickets.
- a transport capacity is predicted on the basis of the transport information.
- it is preferably predicted to what extent transport capacity is available, in particular from what point in time and / or at what location.
- transport goods information in particular ticket data, is preferably taken into account, which can be read out, for example, when the transport goods are detected. This enables a precise analysis of the utilization of a means of transport and enables particularly efficient use.
- the RFID transponder is self-retaining, in particular self-adhesive, preferably self-adhesive, attached to the transported goods during marking.
- the RFID transponder can have a holding means.
- the holding means can be designed, for example, as a clamp with which it can be clamped to the goods to be transported.
- the holding means can also be designed as a magnetic holding means with which the RFID transponder can be attached (magnetically) to the goods to be transported.
- the holding means can also be designed as an adhesive with which the RFID transponder can be glued to the goods to be transported. This enables the RFID transponder to be marked quickly and easily.
- the RFID transponder is part of a ticket.
- the RFID transponder can be generated or issued together with the ticket.
- An RFID transponder printed on the ticket or integrated into the ticket is conceivable.
- the RFID transponder can be printed on a ticket paper or integrated into the ticket paper.
- the ticket or the ticket paper can in turn be designed to be self-retaining, in particular self-adhesive, preferably self-adhesive.
- the RFID transponder as part of the ticket enables the method to be carried out inexpensively and reliably. In particular, transported goods information can be linked to the RFID transponder in a particularly reliable and simple manner.
- the RFID transponder can also be part of the goods to be transported, in particular a suitcase or a bag, for example a saddle bag or other bicycle bag or box. It is conceivable, for example, that the RFID transponder is sewn into the transported goods. When marking the transported goods, the transponder integrated in the transported goods is then described, for example, with the transport information and / or the transported goods information, or the identifier of the transponder is linked to the transported goods information and / or to the transported goods information. In this embodiment, the RFID transponder is particularly well protected and cannot be lost or can only be lost with difficulty during the transport of the goods to be transported.
- a system for monitoring the transport of goods in transit, in particular pieces of luggage has an RFID transponder which is set up for attachment to goods in transit, and a detection device for detecting the goods in transit using the RFID transponder attached to the goods in transit Transponders when loading and / or transporting the cargo.
- the system has a processing device for determining transport information, which characterizes the transport of the transported goods, based on the detection of the transported goods and an interface for outputting the determined transport information.

- this cargo information z. B. contain ticket data, on the basis of which a transport authorization, which is obtained, for example, by paying a transport fee, can be checked.
- the transport information determined on the basis of the detection of the bicycles can thus contain, for example, information on whether the bicycles are authorized for transport or whether the corresponding transport authorizations are valid.
- the portable device which has the detection device 3 and processing device 4, preferably also includes an interface 5a, for example in the form of a display.
- the transport information for example the result of the check as to whether there is a transport authorization, can then be output directly to the conductor 9.
- the processing device 4 can also be set up to determine a current or remaining transport capacity of the train for bicycles. For this purpose, the processing device 4 can count the number of detected bicycles with a maximum number of transported compare pet bikes. Regardless of possible reservations that may not have been taken, it can be reliably determined whether or not more bicycles can be transported. For this purpose it may not even be necessary for the goods information to be read out.
- Such transport information relating to the transport capacity can also be given to the conductor 9 via the interface 5a.
- this transport information can also be output via another interface 5b.
- the transport information it averages to a central management device such as a computer center and / or, if necessary in processed form, to a ticket machine 11.
- the interface 5b is preferably designed as an air interface, for example as a WLAN or Internet or mobile radio connection, so that the transport information determined can be output wirelessly to the central administration device and / or further to the ticket machine 11.
- the transport information is accessible to travelers who want to solve a (bicycle) ticket.
- a traveler can thus be reliably informed, for example, whether or not all the spaces in the bicycle compartment are already occupied on a desired connection.
- the transport information can be determined and / or output automatically and essentially in real time, namely when the transport goods 2 are detected, in particular during the Transport of the goods to be transported 2.
- a wider detection device 10 is arranged on a door of the train for this purpose in order to detect the bicycles with the aid of the RFID transponder 6 attached to them when loading and / or unloading.
- an inventory of the bicycles currently being transported can be generated in an uncomplicated and reliable manner.
- a processing device 4 which is designed as a central processing device, for example as a server.
- the detection of the transported goods 2, in particular in connection with the transport goods information that is preferably read out, can thus be evaluated centrally and the transport information determined in the process can be distributed particularly easily.
- the detection device 3 is set up to transmit the information generated by the detection of the transported goods 2 to the processing device 4 via an air interface.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of a method 100 for monitoring the transport of goods to be transported, in particular pieces of luggage.
- a method step S1 goods information that characterizes a goods to be transported is linked to an RFID transponder, for example by storing the goods information together with an identifier, for example a serial number of the RFID transponder, in a database or directly by storing the transport information in a memory of the RFID transponder.
- the cargo information can contain, for example, a baggage item number, travel data of an owner, address data, ticket data and / or the like.
- the cargo information can be provided sportily, for example, by entering it into a ticket machine or a booking.
- the RFID transponder is generated, in particular printed, in method step S1 when it is linked to the transport goods information.
- the RFID transponder can be printed on a ticket together with ticket data.
- the transported goods characterized by the transported goods information are marked with the RFID transponder, for example by attaching or attaching the RFID transponder to the transported goods.
- the RFID transponder can be designed, for example, to be self-holding, for example by having a corresponding holding means. It is particularly conceivable that a ticket on which the RFID transponder is printed can be glued or otherwise fastened to the goods to be transported.
- the goods to be transported can be detected in a further method step S3 in a simple manner with the aid of a detection device, for example an RFID reader. It is a particular advantage that the detection can be carried out contactless, ie, for example, while passing, and automatically, ie without manual triggering.
- the transport item information linked to the RFID transponder is read out during detection, for example retrieved from the database or the memory of the transponder.
- the read out transport information can then be used as the basis for determining transport information which characterizes the transport of the transport.
- transport conditions and / or a transport state under which or in which the transported goods are transported are determined in a preferred manner.
- the transport information can contain details of the current means of transport, loading locations and / or loading times, quantity or number of jointly transported goods and / or the like.
- the transport capacity can also be predicted, for example, taking into account transport spaces that will become free in the future for transport goods. Alternatively or additionally, it is based on the ticket data z.
- B. also possible to determine whether a transport authorization is allocated to the recorded goods, d. H. whether transport fees have been paid.
- the determined transport information is output via an interface.
- the transport information can be displayed, for example, via an interface designed as an output device, for example as a display, for informing a user.
