Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To cope with requirement for a packed article in the case that features of the article can be displayed only after packing. <P>SOLUTION: The articles are preliminarily selected and the selection is concretely carried out based on detection of at least one feature of weight or the like and the result of classification of the features in a method for packing the articles and a sorting device. The method and device display at least one feature amount derived from at least one feature on a packing body by a printer during packing. The extremely small amount is displayed on the packing body in an adequate way in real time and presented to buyers or customers and is used for further processing. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

Description

本発明は、請求項１のプレアンブルに記載の方法に関する。 The invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1.

このような方法は、選別および包装の技術分野、例えば食品、とくに果物、野菜や鶏卵の選別によく用いられている。例えばＥＰ５４０１２６には、各果物の重量を計測し、供給された果物の流れを選別するものが記載されている。   Such methods are often used in the technical field of sorting and packaging, for example in the sorting of foods, especially fruits, vegetables and eggs. For example, EP540126 describes what measures the weight of each fruit and sorts the flow of the supplied fruit.

選別された物品に対してだけでなく、包装された物品に対する要求も増加している。一般的に、ある種の選別にかけられた物品のみが一つの包装容器にまとめられるが、別の考え得る組み合わせも可能である。食品等の物品の包装の技術分野においては、多くの例が知られており、重量だけでなく色によっても選別が行われる。このような包装に関する特徴を包装容器に表示（再生）することは、例えば色については必要がなく、また、包装容器にその特徴を表すことは困難である。これは、特に、包装後にしか表示を行うことができず、包装容器の充填処理を中断し、連続的な作動ではあるけれども、中断後にしか、表示を行うことができないためである。この表示は、例えば箱の充填後に総重量を表示する場合である。   There is an increasing demand not only for sorted items but also for packed items. In general, only certain sorts of items are collected in one packaging container, but other possible combinations are possible. Many examples are known in the technical field of packaging articles such as food, and sorting is performed not only by weight but also by color. It is not necessary to display (reproduce) such packaging-related characteristics on the packaging container, for example, for colors, and it is difficult to express the characteristics on the packaging container. This is because, in particular, the display can be performed only after packaging, and the filling process of the packaging container is interrupted, and although it is a continuous operation, the display can be performed only after the suspension. This display is, for example, a case where the total weight is displayed after the box is filled.

この難点を解決するために、本発明による方法は、包装中に、少なくとも一つの特徴から導出される少なくとも一つの特徴量を包装体に表示することを特徴とする。   In order to solve this difficulty, the method according to the present invention is characterized in that during packaging, at least one feature amount derived from at least one feature is displayed on the package.

これにより、本発明による方法は、包装された物品本体についてのより詳細な情報を顧客や買い手に提供することができるという利点が得られる。さらに、製品に関連する値段やその他の情報を演算する等の、さらなる処理を行うことが可能となる。包装中にリアルタイムで特徴量を表示することにより、例えば別のコンベヤベルト上でラベルを貼る等の、別の処理を後から行う必要がないという優れた利点を得ることができる。   This provides the advantage that the method according to the invention can provide more detailed information about the packaged article body to the customer or buyer. Furthermore, it is possible to perform further processing such as calculating the price and other information related to the product. By displaying the feature value in real time during packaging, it is possible to obtain an excellent advantage that there is no need to perform another process later, such as attaching a label on another conveyor belt.

本発明による方法は、さらに、各物品について少なくとも一つの特徴が処理装置に記憶され、選別中に、処理装置は、一つの包装容器にまとめられる製品群について、少なくとも一つの特徴量を決定することを特徴とし、より具体的には、少なくとも一つの特徴量を包装容器上に表示することを特徴とする。   The method according to the invention further comprises that at least one feature is stored in the processing device for each article, and during the sorting, the processing device determines at least one feature quantity for a group of products that are put together in one packaging container. More specifically, at least one feature amount is displayed on the packaging container.

コンピュータによって制御され、大量のデータファイルを管理可能な選別装置が一般的に知られている。ＥＰ１３５９５３０には、選別した大量の鶏卵群のトレーサビリティを実現する一つの例が記載されている。一般的に、データファイルとしては、必要に応じて管理上の処理を行うためのものがある。さらに、例えばＵＳ２００２／００１１３１１Ａ１に記載されているように、物品に対して個別にマークをつけるものが知られている。   A sorting device that is controlled by a computer and can manage a large amount of data files is generally known. EP 1359530 describes one example of realizing traceability of a large number of selected eggs. In general, there are data files for performing management processing as necessary. Further, as described in, for example, US2002 / 0011311A1, one that individually marks an article is known.

本発明は、さらに、上述した方法を実行する選別装置を提供する。この装置において、選別中にリアルタイムで直接、上記特徴量が決定される。本発明によれば、具体的には、ある包装容器の総充填重量、もしくは平均糖度等の少なくとも一つの特徴量が決定され、特徴量は信号として表示装置に送られる。表示装置は、例えばプリンタや、バーコード等のラベルを貼り付けるラベリング装置である。包装容器への物品の充填、および物品の特徴の提示は実質的に同時に行われるので、別の処理および作動を省略することができる。   The present invention further provides a sorting apparatus for performing the above-described method. In this apparatus, the feature amount is determined directly in real time during sorting. Specifically, according to the present invention, at least one feature quantity such as a total filling weight or an average sugar content of a certain packaging container is determined, and the feature quantity is sent as a signal to the display device. The display device is, for example, a printer or a labeling device that attaches a label such as a barcode. Filling the packaging container with the article and presenting the characteristics of the article are performed substantially simultaneously, so that further processing and operation can be omitted.

当業者にとっては、上述した以外の種々の変形例も添付の特許請求の範囲の保護範囲内であることは明らかである。
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications other than those described above are within the scope of protection of the appended claims.
