Description

  The present invention relates to a used paper collection management apparatus and a used paper collection management method, and more particularly, a used paper collection management apparatus for managing collection and reproduction of used paper such as confidential documents discharged from a business office, and used paper collection management. Regarding the method.

  Documents generated in offices and other offices include confidential documents such as technical documents and customer personal information documents, and many of them are shredded (shredded). Some of the shredded documents are collected as waste paper and reused, but most are incinerated as garbage.

Since paper can be recycled as a resource, it is desirable to recycle as much as possible. When incinerated as garbage, carbon dioxide (CO ₂ ) is generated. Reduction of CO ₂ is a problem to be addressed on a global scale. In this way, the reuse of waste paper is very important from the viewpoint of protecting the global environment.

  An example of the flow until the used paper is collected and reused will be briefly described with reference to FIG. When the collection office 2 requests the collection company 2 to collect the used paper, the collection company 2 dispatches a business trip shredded car 3 (a car having a shredding function) to the establishment 1 and from the establishment 1 The discharged waste paper is shredded and collected on the spot.

  The used paper shredded by the collection company 2 is received by the paper manufacturer 4, and the used paper is melted by the paper company 4 to produce recycled paper. The recycled paper is delivered from the paper manufacturer 4 to the recycled product maker 5, and the recycled product maker 5 recycles it into copy paper, files, toilet paper, etc., and the recycled paper is purchased and used at the office 1. Become. In many cases, the paper manufacturer 4 does not have a space for storing the used paper, and the recovered paper shredded and shredded by the recoverer 2 is not directly transported to the paper manufacturer 4 but in the used paper wholesaler 6. It is usually stored once.

  In addition, for example, the following Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for efficiently operating a recycling wheel from waste paper discharge to production and use of recycled products to improve profitability on a commercial basis. It is disclosed.

By the way, as described above, most of the documents generated at business establishments are incinerated as garbage and the rate of reuse is low. The reason is that it does not directly lead to improvement in administrative efficiency and cost reduction (and it seems to be in the office), and the idea of contributing to the global environment has not penetrated into the local community. .

Means for solving the problems and their effects

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a used paper collection and management apparatus and a used paper collection and management method capable of promoting the contribution to global environment protection and improving the ratio of collected and recycled used paper. It is intended to provide.

In order to achieve the above object, a used paper collection management apparatus (1) according to the present invention registers used paper collection request information from a used paper discharger in a collection request information storage means in a used paper collection management apparatus that manages the collection of used paper. A collection request information registering means for performing a process for making a used paper collection request to a used paper collector based on the used paper collection request information registered in the collection request information storage means, and the used paper the paper collection result information by collecting person, in association with each paper dischargers, and collecting results information registration means for registering the collected performance information storage means, waste paper paper collection performance information stored in said collecting performance information storage means The type of waste paper that has been collected and the amount of each type are included, and the type of waste paper that has been collected and processed, the amount of each type, and the unit set in consideration of the utility value Amount Based on the points, it is characterized by and a point calculation means for calculating an environmental contributions point indicating the environmental contribution by paper collection.

  According to the waste paper collection management device (1), the waste paper collection result information by the waste paper collector (for example, a collection trader) is associated with each waste paper discharger (for example, an office such as an office), and the collection result is collected. Since it is registered in the information storage means, it is possible to easily grasp how much the used paper is collected for each used paper discharger.

  As a result, for example, it becomes possible to relatively easily develop a service business that can provide benefits according to the degree of cooperation in collecting used paper (that is, the degree of contribution to protecting the global environment). The idea of contributing to environmental protection can be instilled in business offices.

  By the way, with respect to the used paper collection result information by the used paper collector, for example, the collection processing contents issued by the used paper collector (for example, the name of the used paper ejector, the type of recovered used paper, the weight of each type, the price) are included. It can be acquired from the described “collected slip” or from data indicating the content of the recovery process sent from the used paper collector via the network.

  However, the “collected slips” and data received from the used paper collector only indicate whether the used paper has actually been collected, whether there has been a request for collecting used paper (ie, fictitious transactions). As for the contents of the results, there is no choice but to trust the recovered paper collector, and the credibility of the recovered paper results remains doubtful. In particular, if you are going to develop some kind of service business according to the degree of cooperation in used paper collection, it is likely that you will need a certain level of authenticity in the results of used paper collection.

  According to the waste paper collection management device (1), waste paper collection request information from the waste paper discharger is registered in the collection request information storage means, and based on this waste paper collection request information, waste paper collection to the waste paper collector Since the processing for the request (for example, creation of a used paper collection request form) is performed, it is possible to accurately grasp whether or not a used paper collection request has actually occurred. That is, since the operation manager (that is, the third party) of the used paper collection management apparatus is interposed between the used paper discharger and the used paper collector for the operations from the used paper collection request to the collected paper, the used paper collector Can improve the credibility of used paper collection results. As for the third party, an organization that does not aim for profit and has high social credibility (for example, a chamber of commerce) is desirable.

There are various types of used paper, and there are high-quality paper that can be reclaimed as copy paper, notebooks, memo paper, etc., but it cannot be reclaimed as copy paper, but can be used for toilet paper, tissue paper, paperboard, magazine paper, etc. Some will be regenerated. In addition, the rate of decrease depends on the type of used paper. For example, 40 kg of recycled paper can be obtained from a certain 50 kg of used paper (reduction rate 0.8), but only 20 kg of recycled paper can be obtained from another 50 kg of used paper (decrease rate 0.4). There are things that can not be done.
Therefore, even if the used paper has the same weight, if the type is different, what can be recycled is different, and the amount of recycled paper is also different. That is, even if the used paper has the same weight, the value of use varies greatly if the types are different, so it is important to firmly grasp the type of recovered used paper.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 1 ), the used paper collection result information includes the types of used paper subjected to the used paper collection processing and the amount of each type. That is, it is possible to firmly grasp not only the weight of recovered recovered paper but also the type of used paper. This makes it possible to more appropriately and fairly determine the degree of cooperation in collecting used paper (that is, the degree of contribution to protecting the global environment).

  As described above, even if used paper has the same weight, its value of use varies greatly if the type is different. Therefore, the degree of cooperation in collecting used paper (that is, contribution to global environmental protection) is more appropriate and fair. In order to judge, it is necessary to consider not only the weight of the used paper but also the type of the used paper.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 1 ), based on the types of collected recovered paper, the amount of each type , and the points per unit amount set in consideration of the utility value for the types of used paper An environmental protection contribution point indicating the degree of environmental protection contribution is calculated. For example, 10 points for copy paper 10 kg, 6 points for paper file 10 kg, 4 points for file box 10 kg, and 2 points for weekly magazine 10 kg are set. If the breakdown is copy paper 20 kg, paper file 5 kg, file box 5 kg, weekly magazine 20 kg, the environmental protection contribution points are 29 (= 20 + 3 + 2 + 4) points.
That is, since the contribution to the global environment taking into account the utility value of waste paper is quantified, the contribution to the environment can be objectively determined. Thereby, it becomes very easy to develop a service business or the like that can obtain a privilege according to the degree of contribution of global environmental protection.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 2 ) according to the present invention is the case where the environmental protection contribution point calculated by the point calculation means is registered in the collection result information storage means in the used paper collection management device ( 1 ). And a certificate creating means for creating a certificate indicating that the used paper collecting process has been performed based on the used paper collecting result information registered in the collecting result information storing means, and the certificate includes at least the above-mentioned certificate It is characterized by points that contribute to environmental protection.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 2 ), a certificate indicating that the used paper collection processing has been performed is created. If this certificate is used, since the used paper collection results can be known, it is possible to further facilitate the development of a service business or the like that can obtain a privilege according to the degree of contribution to the protection of the global environment. Further, since the environmental protection contribution point is described in the certificate, not only the fact that it contributes to environmental protection but also the contribution degree can be determined from the certificate.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 3 ) according to the present invention provides an environmental protection contribution for each used paper discharger based on the calculation result by the point calculation means in the used paper collection management device ( 1 ) or ( 2 ). Point accumulation means for accumulating points, and contribution information registration means for registering the accumulated environmental protection contribution points accumulated by the point accumulation means in the environmental protection contribution information storage means in association with each used paper discharger It is characterized by being.

According to the waste paper collection management device ( 3 ), an accumulated environmental protection contribution point is calculated for each waste paper discharger, and the accumulated environmental protection contribution point is associated with each waste paper discharger to correspond to the environmental protection contribution information. Registered in the storage means. Thereby, it is possible to easily know the degree of environmental protection contribution of each waste paper discharger.

  In other words, since the waste paper dischargers (for example, offices such as offices) having a high degree of contribution to environmental protection can be immediately identified, it is easy to announce the offices to the community. The social evaluation of the published establishment should increase. In other words, by disclosing business establishments with a high degree of environmental protection contribution, the idea of contributing to environmental protection can be instilled in the establishments. In addition, it is also possible to easily realize browsing of the degree of environmental protection contribution of each used paper discharger and issuance of a certificate that describes the degree of contribution to environmental protection (cumulative environmental protection contribution points).

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 4 ) according to the present invention includes the collection request information storage means in the processing performed by the first processing means in any of the used paper collection management devices (1) to ( 3 ). And a process for selecting a request for collecting used paper from a plurality of used paper collectors based on the used paper collecting request information and the used paper collecting person information.

  Since there are a large number of used paper collectors, not one, it is necessary to select an appropriate used paper collector from a large number of used paper collectors. However, this selection is by no means easy, and the greater the selection conditions, the greater the effort. It is difficult for the operation manager of this used paper collection management apparatus to perform such work.

According to the waste paper collection management device ( 4 ), the waste paper collection request information (for example, the location of the waste paper discharger and the type of waste paper desired to be collected) and the waste paper collector information (for example, the waste paper collector) Based on the location of the used paper and the types of recovered paper that can be collected), a request for collecting the used paper is selected from a plurality of recovered paper collectors. For example, the waste paper collector who is closest to the waste paper discharger is selected from the waste paper collectors who can collect the waste paper desired to be collected by the waste paper discharger. As a result, the burden on the operations manager can be reduced.

In addition, the used paper collection management device ( 5 ) according to the present invention may be configured such that, in any of the used paper collection management devices (1) to ( 4 ), the processing performed by the first processing means is performed through an electric communication line. It is characterized in that it includes a process of requesting the collection person to collect used paper.

  Examples of a method for requesting used paper collection to the used paper collector include a method in which an operation manager transmits a “used paper collection request form” in which used paper collection request information is described to the used paper collector by facsimile. However, this method is too burdensome for the operations manager. Also, it is difficult to respond quickly.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 5 ), the used paper collecting person is requested to collect used paper through an electronic communication line (for example, the Internet). For example, a “used paper collection request form” is transmitted as the data to the used paper collecting person. As a result, the burden on the operations manager can be greatly reduced.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 6 ) according to the present invention is based on the used paper collection result information registered in the collection result information storage means in any of the used paper collection management devices (1) to ( 5 ). And a second processing means for performing processing for requesting a used paper collection fee to the used paper discharger.

  When the waste paper discharged from the waste paper discharger is shredded and recovered by the waste paper collector, the waste paper price to be paid from the waste paper collector to the waste paper discharger (for example, 1 yen per kg), and A waste paper shredding fee to be paid from the waste paper discharger to the waste paper collector is generated. Since this shredding fee is several tens of times higher than the waste paper price, as a result, only the waste paper collection fee charged to the waste paper discharger (that is, the difference between the shredding fee and the waste paper fee) is generated. In addition, other fees may be included in the used paper collection fee.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 6 ), processing for charging a used paper collection fee to the used paper discharger is performed based on the used paper collection result information registered in the collection result information storage means. For example, the processing includes creation of a bill for waste paper collection fee. Therefore, the operation manager of this used paper collection management device charges the used paper collecting fee to the used paper discharger on behalf of the used paper collecting person.
As described above, since the operation manager of the used paper collection management device is interposed between the used paper discharger and the used paper collection person for the payment of the used paper collection price, the credibility of the used paper collection results is further enhanced. Can do.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 7 ) according to the present invention is based on the used paper collection result information registered in the collection result information storage means in any of the used paper collection management devices (1) to ( 6 ). And a third processing means for performing processing for payment of the used paper collection price to the used paper collector.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 7 ), processing for payment of the used paper collection price to the used paper collector is performed based on the used paper collection result information registered in the collection result information storage means. For example, examples of the processing include creation of a payment statement for a used paper collection fee. Therefore, the operation manager of the used paper collection management device pays the used paper collection price to the used paper collector instead of the used paper discharger.
As described above, since the operation manager of the used paper collection management device is interposed between the used paper discharger and the used paper collection person for the payment of the used paper collection price, the credibility of the used paper collection results is further enhanced. Can do. As described above, the used paper collection price is the difference between the used paper shredding fee and the used paper price.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 8 ) according to the present invention, in any one of the used paper collection management devices (1) to ( 7 ), receives used paper acceptance information by a recycled resource handler who receives used paper from the used paper collector. The present invention is characterized by comprising used paper receipt information registration means for registering in the used paper receipt information storage means.

  As explained in the section of “Background Technology”, the used paper collected and shredded by the collecting company 2 is transported to the paper making company 4 (there may be temporarily stored in the used paper wholesaler 6), where it is subjected to a dissolution treatment. And recycled paper is produced. In other words, there is an acceptance of the used paper at the paper manufacturer 4 (or the used paper wholesaler 6) until the recovered used paper is recycled.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 8 ), the used paper acceptance information by the recycled resource handler (for example, a paper manufacturer, a used paper wholesaler) is registered in the used paper acceptance information storage means. It is possible to confirm whether the used waste paper is on the flow of recovery and recycling (recycling).

  For example, if the used paper collected by the collecting company A is 20 t, the used paper collected by the collecting company B is 10 t, the used paper conveyed to the paper manufacturer C is 15 t, and the used paper conveyed to the paper manufacturer D is 15 t, It can be determined that all the collected recovered paper is flowing to the paper manufacturer. If the recovered paper transported to the paper manufacturer C is 15 tons and the recovered paper transported to the paper manufacturer D is 10 tons, the remaining 5 tons are discarded It can be judged that it may have been used for incineration or landfill.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 9 ) according to the present invention provides the recycled product order information storage means for the recycled product order information from the used paper ejector in any of the used paper collection management devices (1) to ( 8 ). Recycled product order information registration means for registering to the recycled product ordering information to the recycled product producer who produces the recycled product from the collected recovered paper based on the recycled product order information registered in the recycled product order information storage means And a delivery result information registration means for registering the recycled product delivery result information by the recycled product producer in the delivery result information storage means in association with each used paper discharger. It is characterized by having.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 9 ), the recycled product delivery result information by the recycled product producer (for example, recycled product manufacturer) is associated with each used paper discharger (for example, an office such as an office) Since it is registered in the delivery result information storage means, it is possible to easily grasp to what extent each used paper discharger cooperates in the use of recycled products.

  By the way, as for the recycled product delivery result information by the recycled product producer, for example, the contents of delivery issued by the recycled product producer (for example, the name of the delivery destination, the type and number of recycled products delivered, the price) are described. It can be acquired from the delivered “delivery slip” or from the data indicating the delivery contents sent from the recycled product producer via the network.

  However, the “delivery slip” and data received from the recycled product producer only indicate whether the recycled product was actually delivered, whether an order for the recycled product was actually generated (that is, Whether the fictitious transaction or the like has occurred), as for the contents of the results, there is no choice but to trust the producer of the recycled product, and the credibility of the delivered result of the recycled product remains a question.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 9 ), recycled product order information from the used paper discharger is registered in the recycled product order information storage means, and based on the recycled product order information, the recycled product order information is sent to the recycled product producer. Since processing for ordering a refurbished product (for example, creation of a refurbished product order form) is performed, it is possible to accurately grasp whether or not a request for refurbished product order has actually occurred. That is, the operation manager (that is, the third party) of the used paper collection management apparatus is interposed between the used paper discharger and the recycled product producer for the work from the order for ordering the recycled product to the delivery. It is possible to improve the credibility of the delivery of recycled products by product producers.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 10 ) according to the present invention is a recycled product according to the collection result based on the collection result information registered in the collection result information storage means in the used paper collection management device ( 9 ). A refurbished product order limit calculating means for calculating an order limit is provided, and an order within the refurbished product order limit calculated by the regenerated product order limit calculating means is received.

  The use of recycled products is one proof that it contributes to environmental protection, and has the effect of enhancing the social evaluation of companies. For this reason, although it does not cooperate much with the collection of used paper, there is a risk that there will be a movement to actively purchase and use recycled products.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 10 ), a recycled product order limit corresponding to the collected record is calculated based on the collected record information registered in the collected record information storage means, and within the recycled product order limit. Only orders will be accepted. In other words, since the order limit for recycled products is determined according to the degree of cooperation in collecting used paper, those who do not cooperate much in collecting used paper cannot use recycled products. Thereby, it can be made to work actively also about collection of used paper.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 11 ) according to the present invention registers in the recycled product order information storage means in the processing performed by the fourth processing means in the used paper collection management device ( 9 ) or ( 10 ). It is characterized in that processing for selecting a refurbished product ordering party from a plurality of refurbished product producers is included based on the refurbished product order information and the regenerated product producer information.

  Since there are many recycled product producers instead of one, it is necessary to select an appropriate recycled product producer from among a large number of recycled product producers. However, this selection is by no means easy, and the greater the selection conditions, the greater the effort. It is difficult for the operation manager of this used paper collection management apparatus to perform such work.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 11 ), the recycled product order information (for example, the orderer's location and the ordered recycled product item) and the recycled product producer information (for example, the recycled product producer's information). Based on the location and the items of remanufacturable products that can be produced, a supplier of refurbished products is selected from a plurality of producers of the remanufactured products. For example, the recycled product producer closest to the orderer is selected from the recycled product producers capable of producing the ordered recycled product. As a result, the burden on the operations manager can be reduced.

In addition, the used paper collection management device ( 12 ) according to the present invention may be configured such that, in any of the used paper collection management devices ( 9 ) to ( 11 ), the processing performed by the fourth processing means is performed through the electric communication line. It is characterized in that it includes a process of placing an order for recycled products from a product producer.

  As a method for ordering the refurbished product from the recycled product producer, for example, there is a method in which an operation manager sends a “recycled product order form” in which the recycled product order information is described to the regenerated product producer by facsimile. Although this method is mentioned, the burden on the operation manager becomes too great. Also, it is difficult to respond quickly.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 12 ), a recycled product is ordered from the recycled product producer through an electronic communication line (for example, the Internet). For example, a “recycled product purchase order” is transmitted as the data to the recycled product producer. As a result, the burden on the operations manager can be greatly reduced.

Further, the used paper collection management device ( 13 ) according to the present invention is based on the recycled product delivery result information registered in the delivery result information storage means in any of the used paper collection management devices ( 9 ) to ( 12 ). And a fifth processing means for performing processing for requesting the purchase price of recycled products to the waste paper ejector.

According to the used paper collection management device ( 13 ), processing for requesting the recycled product purchase price to the used paper discharger is performed based on the recycled product delivery record information registered in the delivery record information storage means. . For example, the processing includes creation of a bill for the purchase price of recycled products. Therefore, the operation manager of this used paper collection management apparatus charges the recycled product purchase price to the used paper discharger on behalf of the recycled product producer.
As described above, since the operation manager of the used paper collection management device is interposed between the waste paper discharger and the recycled product producer for the payment of the recycled product purchase price, the reliability of the recycled product delivery performance is further increased. Can be increased.

The used paper collection management device ( 14 ) according to the present invention is based on the recycled product delivery result information registered in the delivery result information storage means in any one of the used paper collection management devices ( 9 ) to ( 13 ). And a sixth processing means for performing processing for payment of the purchase price of the recycled product to the recycled product producer.

According to the used paper collection management device (14), processing for paying the purchase price of the recycled product to the recycled product producer is performed based on the recycled product delivery performance information registered in the delivery performance information storage means. Is called. For example, as the processing, creation of a payment specification for the purchase price of the recycled product can be cited. Therefore, the operation manager of the used paper collection management apparatus pays the recycled product purchase price to the recycled product producer on behalf of the used paper discharger.
As described above, since the operation manager of the used paper collection management device is interposed between the waste paper discharger and the recycled product producer for the payment of the recycled product purchase price, the reliability of the recycled product delivery performance is further increased. Can be increased.

  According to the used paper collection management method (1), the used paper collecting result information by the used paper collecting person (for example, a collecting company) is associated with each used paper discharger (for example, an office such as an office), and the collecting result is collected. Since it is registered in the information storage means, it is possible to easily grasp to what extent each used paper discharger cooperates in collecting used paper.

  As a result, for example, it becomes possible to relatively easily develop a service business that can provide benefits according to the degree of cooperation in collecting used paper (that is, the degree of contribution to protecting the global environment). The idea of contributing to environmental protection can be instilled in business offices.

Further, according to the used paper collection management method (1), the used paper collection request information from the used paper discharger is registered in the collection request information storage means, and based on the used paper collection request information, Since the processing for the used paper collection request (for example, creation of the used paper collection request form) is performed, it is possible to accurately grasp whether or not the used paper collection request has actually occurred. In other words, since the operation management device can be interposed between the waste paper ejector and the waste paper collector for the work from the waste paper collection request to the collection, the credibility of the waste paper collection performance by the waste paper collector is improved. be able to.
In addition, environmental protection contributions that indicate the degree of environmental protection contribution based on the types of recovered paper collected, the amount of each type, and the points per unit amount set considering the utility value for the type of used paper Points are calculated. That is, since the contribution to the global environment taking into account the utility value of waste paper is quantified, the contribution to the environment can be objectively determined. This makes it very easy to develop a service business or the like that can obtain benefits according to the degree of contribution to global environmental protection (cooperation of collecting used paper).

  Embodiments of a used paper collection management apparatus and a used paper collection management method according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram for explaining an example of a flow of work in a used paper collection / reproduction management system employing a used paper collection / management apparatus according to the embodiment (1).

  This system divides waste paper discharged from the business office 1 that discharges the used paper, the recovered paper 2 that is recovered from the business office 1, and the recovered paper that has been shredded by the recovery company 2 and recycles them. A paper manufacturer 4, a recycled product manufacturer 5 that recycles recycled paper (that is, recycled paper) recycled by the paper manufacturer 4 into copy paper, files, toilet paper, etc., and an operation that manages this used paper collection and recycling management system An administrator 7 is included. Hereinafter, the operations of the operation manager 7 will be mainly described.

  In addition, as explained in the section of “Background Art”, the used paper shredded by the recovery company 2 is not delivered directly to the paper manufacturer 4 but may be temporarily stored in a used paper wholesaler. Then, in order to facilitate the explanation, a case where the used paper shredded by the collection company 2 is delivered directly to the paper manufacturer 4 will be described.

● Membership registration (business W1)-password issuance (business W2)
When the operation manager 7 receives a member registration request for using this system (network) by telephone, facsimile, e-mail, or the like from the office 1, the operation manager 7 performs a predetermined procedure for member registration (operation W1). ) And issue a password (operation W2).

● Used Paper Collection Registration (Business W3)-Used Paper Collection Request (Business W4)
When the operation manager 7 receives a request for collecting used paper by telephone, facsimile, e-mail, etc. from the business office 1 registered as a member, the used paper collection request information (identification information for identifying the business office 1 as the requester, request The collection processing date and time, the type of used paper desired to be collected, etc.) are registered in the database (operation W3), and the collection company 2 is requested to collect used paper (operation W4).
Upon receipt of a used paper collection request from the operation manager 7, the collection company 2 dispatches a business trip shredded car 3 (see FIG. 41) to the business office 1 to finely collect the waste paper discharged from the business office 1. Cut and collect.
When the shredding and the collection work are completed, the collection supplier 2 describes the used paper collection record information in the “collected slip” and sends the “collected slip” to the operation manager 7. Alternatively, the used paper collection result information is transmitted as data to the operation manager 7 via a network such as the Internet. Used paper collection results information includes identification information (name, address, contact information, etc.) for identifying the establishment 1 that has discharged the used paper, and identification information (name, address, communication) for identifying the used paper supplier 2 that has collected the used paper. 1), the type of recovered recovered paper, the weight of each type, recovered paper collection price, processing date and time, processing location, processing method, and the like. As for the identification information, when an identification number (for example, a member number or a collection company number) is given, the identification number is sufficient.

As a result, the operation manager 7 can charge the refurbished product price to the business office 1 by printing a “recycled product price bill” and sending it to the business office 1.

  In this example, the “delivery price invoice” is created by picking up the delivery results within the range specified by the operation manager 7, but in another embodiment, the system WEB server 12 automatically You may make it search and pick up the delivery results in a predetermined range. For example, an automatic search may be performed on the first day of every month, and items that have been delivered by the 20th of the previous month may be picked up to generate a “recycled product price bill”.

  Next, the processing operation [12] performed by the system WEB server 12 and the information terminal device 17 in the used paper collection / reproduction management server 11 when realizing the operations W18 and W19 shown in FIG. 1 is based on the flowchart shown in FIG. I will explain. This processing operation [12] is an operation performed when the operation manager 7 operates the information terminal device 17 to instruct to call the “(recycled product price) payment processing screen”.

  The system WEB server 12 is instructed by the information terminal device 17 to call a “(recycled product price) payment processing screen” (specifically, a URL address storing the “payment processing screen” data). (Step S 191), the “payment processing screen” data is transmitted to the information terminal device 17 in accordance with the instruction (Step S 192).

  Upon receiving the “payment processing screen” data (step S193), the information terminal device 17 displays the “payment processing screen” on the display based on the received data (step S194). When necessary contents (for example, invoice number) are input by the operation manager 7 and data transmission is instructed, the input data is transmitted to the system WEB server 12 (step S195). The invoice is determined according to the input contents.

  When the system WEB server 12 receives the input data sent from the information terminal device 17 (step S196), the system WEB server 12 checks the input data. If the system WEB server 12 determines that there is no defect, the operation manager 7 The payment status of the remanufactured item price in the remanufactured item price claim management database DB 16 for the invoice designated by the above is set to “completed” (step S197).

  After that, necessary information is acquired from the remanufactured product charge billing management database DB16, the member information database DB1, and the reclaimed product manufacturer information database DB4 (step S198), and the payment amount and payment destination (name and address of the refurbished product manufacturer 5) Is created (Step S199). When creating a “recycled item price payment statement”, a payment statement number is issued so that each can be distinguished by the payment statement number.

  Next, the payment amount and the remanufactured product delivery number (see FIG. 22) are registered in association with the payment statement number in the remanufactured product price payment management database DB 17 for managing the refurbished product price payment (step S200). , Data indicating the “recycled item price payment statement” is transmitted to the information terminal device 17 (step S201). FIG. 27 shows an example of the storage format of the recycled product price payment management database DB17.

  As shown in FIG. 27, in the remanufactured item price payment management database DB17, the payment amount, the remanufactured product delivery number, and the payment status (uncompleted) are registered in association with the payment statement number. ing. In this item, “not yet” is registered first, and “paid” is registered when payment is confirmed.

  Regarding the creation of “recycled item price payment statement”, the format of “recycled item price payment statement” is stored in the folder of the system WEB server 12 and necessary information is written using the format. It ’s fine. The information to be written in the “recycled item price payment statement” includes, for example, the payment statement number, the name of the recycled item manufacturer 5, the address of the recycled item manufacturer 5, the item of the recycled item delivered, the quantity, the recycled item price, The date and time of delivery and the name of the business establishment 1 that delivered the product are listed.

  When the information terminal device 17 receives the data indicating the “recycled item price payment statement” (step S202), the information terminal device 17 displays the “recycled item price payment statement” on the display based on the received data (step S203). . As a result, the operation manager 7 can appropriately pay the recycled product price to the recycled product manufacturer 5 by printing the “recycled product price payment statement”.

  According to the used paper collection management device according to the above embodiment (1), the used paper collection result information by the collection company 2 is registered in the member-specific collection result information database DB8 in association with each business office 1. It is possible to easily grasp how much cooperation is made in collecting used paper for each business office 1.

As a result, for example, a service business in which a privilege can be obtained according to the cooperation level of recovered paper collection (that is, the contribution level of global environmental protection) can be developed relatively easily. An example of a service business in which benefits can be obtained according to the degree of contribution to environmental protection is to announce to the local community the establishment 1 that contributes to environmental protection. Announcing that it contributes to environmental protection to the local community leads to an improvement in the corporate evaluation of the society, and can instill the idea of contributing to environmental protection in the office 1 as a result.
Recently, there are financial institutions that are strengthening financing for companies that are engaged in environmental measures, so the environmental protection contribution points obtained from this used paper collection and recycling management system can also be used for the above-mentioned loan judgment materials. Can be used widely.

  In addition, the used paper collection request information from the office 1 is registered in the collection request information database DB 6, and based on this used paper collection request information, a process for requesting used paper collection to the collecting company 2 (for example, a used paper collection request form Creation), it is possible to accurately grasp whether or not a request for collecting used paper has actually occurred. That is, since the operation manager 7 as a third party can be interposed between the business office 1 and the collection company 2 for the work from the collection request of the used paper to the collection, the authenticity of the used paper collection performance by the collection company 2 Can be increased. As for the third party, an organization that does not aim for profit and has high social credibility (for example, a chamber of commerce) is desirable.

  Furthermore, according to the used paper collection management apparatus according to the above embodiment (1), the recycled product delivery result information by the recycled product manufacturer 5 is registered in the member-specific purchase record information database DB 15 in association with each business office 1. Therefore, it is possible to easily grasp how much each office 1 is cooperating with the use of recycled products.

  Also, the refurbished product order information from the office 1 is registered in the remanufactured product order information database DB13, and based on this remanufactured product order information, a process for ordering the refurbished product from the refurbished product manufacturer 5 (for example, a refurbished product order Document creation), it is possible to accurately grasp whether or not a request for refurbished goods has actually occurred. That is, since the operation manager 7 can be interposed in the work from the order for the refurbished product order to the delivery, the credibility of the remanufactured product delivery performance by the refurbished product manufacturer 5 can be improved.

  In addition, if the name of the business office 1 is added to the recycled product made from waste paper, such as “This product uses recycled paper from XX company,” this will not be limited to the local community. Is a big advertisement, and is expected to improve the environmental protection contribution in the office 1. The reason why such a service such as the name of the business office 1 can be developed is that it manages from the used paper collection request to the delivery of recycled products. In addition, it is fair and desirable that the degree and space for putting the name of the establishment 1 in the recycled product is determined according to the environmental protection contribution point.

  The use of recycled products is one proof that it contributes to environmental protection, and has the effect of enhancing the social evaluation of companies. For this reason, although it does not cooperate much with the collection of used paper, there is a risk that there will be a movement to actively purchase and use recycled products. Therefore, in another embodiment, based on the collection record information registered in the member-specific collection record information database DB8, a reclaimed product order limit is calculated, and only orders within this reclaimed product order limit are accepted. Anyway.

  For example, a table showing the relationship between the type of recycled product and the environmental protection contribution point is prepared, and the environmental protection contribution point necessary for ordering the recycled product is calculated based on the table. If you set 20 points for an order of 500 copy sheets, 10 points for an order of 10 note papers, and 5 points for an order of 6 toilet papers, 1000 copy sheets, 30 note papers, In order to order 6 toilet papers, 75 (= 40 + 30 + 5) points are required for environmental protection. The environmental protection contribution points necessary for ordering recycled products are compared with the environmental protection contribution points acquired by the office 1, and if the acquired environmental protection contribution points exceed, the order is accepted.

  Next, a used paper collection / reproduction management system employing the used paper collection / management apparatus according to the embodiment (2) will be described. However, since this used paper collection / regeneration management system has the same configuration as the used paper collection / reproduction management system shown in FIG. 2 except for the used paper collection / reproduction management server 11, the used paper collection / reproduction management server and the used paper collection / reproduction management server Different reference numerals 11A and 12A are assigned to the system WEB servers constituting the system, and description of other components is omitted here.

If the passwords match (the operation manager 7 password is almighty and is determined to match), the input data is registered in the refurbished product order information database DB 13 provided in the storage server 13 (step S338).

  Then, using the member number, the member information database DB1 is searched to obtain information on the business site 1 that is the orderer of refurbished items (name, address, contact information, fax number, e-mail address of business site 1) ( In step S339), based on the acquired information on the office 1 and the data registered in the recycled product order information database DB13, a “recycled product order confirmation” is created (step S340), and the “recycled product order confirmation” is created. The indicated data is transmitted to the information terminal device 17 (step S341).

  Regarding creation of “recycled item order confirmation”, a format of “recycled item order confirmation” may be stored in a folder of the system WEB server 12F, and necessary information may be written using the format. . The information to be written in the “recycled item order confirmation” includes, for example, the member number, the name of the office 1, the address, the contact information, the FAX number, the e-mail address, the order date, the refurbished item of the order, and the quantity. It is done.

  Upon receiving the data indicating the “recycled item order confirmation” (step S342), the information terminal device 17 displays the “recycled item order confirmation” on the display based on the received data (step S343). Thereby, the operator (especially the office 1) can confirm that the order of the remanufactured product has been properly executed.

  In this way, since the office 1 can access the used paper collection / reproduction management server 11F and directly input the recycled product order information, it is possible to reduce the burden of the input operation and request response of the operation manager 7. Since the operation manager 7 can also input refurbished product order information, it is also possible to receive refurbished product orders from the office 1 by telephone, facsimile, e-mail, or the like.

  The timing for creating the “recycled product purchase order” is not particularly limited, and may be performed when an order for the refurbished product is generated (for example, when registration in the refurbished product order information database DB13 is completed). It may be performed in response to an instruction from the operation manager 7. In addition, regarding the selection of the recycled product manufacturer 5, the used paper collection / reproduction management server 11F stores the recycled product order information database DB13 as in the used paper collection / reproduction management system employing the used paper collection / management apparatus according to the embodiment (6). An appropriate recycled product manufacturer 5 may be selected based on the registered recycled product order information.

  Next, a used paper collection / reproduction management system employing the used paper collection / management apparatus according to the embodiment (8) will be described. However, since this used paper collection / regeneration management system has the same configuration as the used paper collection / reproduction management system shown in FIG. 2 except for the used paper collection / reproduction management server 11, the used paper collection / reproduction management server and the used paper collection / reproduction management server Different reference numerals 11G and 12G are assigned to the system WEB servers constituting the system, and description of other components is omitted here.

By the way, in the used paper collection / reproduction management system employing the used paper collection / management apparatus according to the embodiment (1), the delivery notification registration (operation W16) is performed as described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. This is realized by receiving an input operation to the information terminal device 17 by the operation manager 7 while watching the “delivery slip” sent from the manufacturer 5.
However, slip arrangement is by no means an easy task, and there is a risk that the work burden on the operation manager 7 will increase.

  The used paper collection / recycling management system employing the used paper collection / management apparatus according to the embodiment (8) solves such a problem, and the used paper collection / reproduction management for realizing the work W16 shown in FIG. The processing operation [10G] performed by the system WEB server 12G and the information terminal device 17 in the server 11G will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG. In this processing operation [10G], the information terminal device 17 is operated (the operator is not limited to the operation manager 7, but rather the operator is assumed to be the recycled product manufacturer 5). This operation is performed when an instruction to call “screen” is issued.

  The system WEB server 12G is instructed to call the “delivery result input screen” from the information terminal device 17 (specifically, the URL address storing the “delivery result input screen” data is specified) (step S351). In accordance with the instruction, “delivery result input screen” data is transmitted to the information terminal device 17 (step S352).

  When receiving the “delivery result input screen” data (step S353), the information terminal device 17 displays the “delivery result input screen” on the display based on the received data (step S354). Contents required by the operator (especially assuming the recycled product manufacturer 5) (member number of the establishment 1 that ordered the recycled product, the recycled product manufacturer number of the recycled product manufacturer 5 that delivered the recycled product, the delivered product item and quantity delivered When the operator inputs the remanufactured product price, delivery date and time, and instructs the data transmission, the input data is transmitted to the system WEB server 12G (step S355).

  When the system WEB server 12G receives the input data sent from the information terminal device 17 (step S356), the system WEB server 12G checks the input data. The password corresponding to the reproduction product manufacturer number sent from the information terminal device 17 is acquired and collated with the password sent from the information terminal device 17 (step S357).

  If the passwords match (the password of the operation manager 7 is almighty and is determined to match), a remanufactured product delivery number is issued, and input data is provided in the storage server 13 in association with the remanufactured product delivery number. The registered delivery result information database DB14 is registered (step S358).

  After that, the member information database DB1 is searched using the member number, and the information (name and address of the facility 1) of the delivery destination establishment 1 is acquired (step S359), and the reproduction product manufacturer number is used for reproduction. The product maker information database DB4 is searched to acquire information on the recycled product manufacturer 5 (name of the recycled product manufacturer 5) that has delivered the recycled product (step S360). Based on the data registered in the delivery result information database DB14, a “delivery result registration confirmation” is created (step S361), and data indicating the “delivery result registration confirmation” is transmitted to the information terminal device 17 (step S361). S362).

  As for the creation of the “delivery result registration confirmation”, the “delivery result registration confirmation” form may be stored in the folder of the system WEB server 12G, and necessary information may be written using the form. . The information to be written in the “delivery result registration confirmation” includes, for example, the membership number, the name of the business place 1, the address of the business place 1, the item of the remanufactured product, the quantity, the delivery date and time, the refurbished product manufacturer number, The name of the recycled product manufacturer 5 that has been delivered can be mentioned.

  When receiving the data indicating the “delivery result registration confirmation” (step S363), the information terminal device 17 displays the “delivery collection request confirmation” on the display based on the received data (step S364). Thereby, the operator (mainly the recycled product manufacturer 5) can confirm that the registration of the recycled product delivery record has been properly executed.

  In this way, since the recycled paper manufacturer 5 can access the used paper collection / recycling management server 11G and directly input the recycled product delivery result information, it is possible to reduce the burden on the operation manager 7 in organizing the slip. In addition, since the remanufactured product delivery result information can also be input from the operation manager 7, it is possible to cope with the case where a “delivery slip” is sent from the remanufactured product manufacturer 5.

  In addition, the update timing of the member-specific purchase record information database DB15 is not particularly limited, and may be performed when a delivery record is registered (for example, when registration in the delivery record information database DB14 is completed). However, it may be performed in response to an instruction from the operation manager 7.
