Description

  The present invention relates to a cooked food store that sells cooked foods such as baked bread and confectionery among cooked food dealers that sell cooked foods such as a bakery store, a confectionery store, or a side dish store. In a so-called cafeteria-style cooked food retailer (including stores that take home cooked food) The present invention relates to a payment settlement system and a payment settlement method for cooked foods that are suitable for introduction.

  In traditional food stores such as bakery stores and confectionery stores, cooked foods such as baked bread and confectionery are unwrapped and displayed on open shelves, and customers can self-use the displayed cooked foods. There is a so-called cafeteria-type store where a service is placed on a tray and taken to a place where payment is made.

  This method of selling cooked foods without packaging has the advantage of stimulating the customer's odor and vision and appealing the cooked foods. There was a fear that it was not so good. Moreover, since the price is not attached to the cooked food, the clerk must judge the price from the appearance of the cooked food when paying the price, and there is a risk that the price is wrong. In cafeteria-type stores, it is important to reduce the time for payment settlement as much as possible because it is easy to form a line at the place for payment settlement due to the concentration of customers at mealtime. In addition, it takes time, and if the price cannot be determined instantly because the price is not attached to the cooked food, the time required for the payment is excessive. In addition, since the cooked food was individually packaged at the time of payment, it was delivered to the customer.

Patent Document 1 discloses a fee settlement apparatus for easily performing a fee settlement for a product.

It may be mounted by being sandwiched between other positions.

  Next, a payment settlement apparatus installed at the payment settlement place 104 will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of a payment settlement apparatus. The price settlement apparatus 60 shown in the figure includes an IC tag reader 61 that reads information from the IC tag 30 and a register 62 that calculates the price based on the information read by the IC tag reader 61. The IC tag reader 61 includes a tray placement surface 63 formed in a flat surface on which the tray 64 is placed. Further, an antenna 65 for reading information of the IC tag 30 on the tray 64 placed on the tray placing surface 63 is provided. The antenna 65 is installed inside the tray mounting surface 63, and outputs an electromagnetic wave vertically upward from the tray mounting surface 63, whereby an IC tag mounted on the tray 64 on the tray mounting surface 63. 30 pieces of information can be directly read. On the other hand, the register 62 is an apparatus that inputs and registers information read by the IC tag reader 61 and calculates the total price of the bread 10 on the tray 64 based on the information. The display unit 62b for displaying the calculation result is provided. Note that the tray 64 is formed of a dielectric material such as a synthetic resin material that can transmit electromagnetic waves output from the antenna 65.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining a procedure for performing the payment settlement in the payment settlement system having the above-described configuration. Here, the procedure from the stage of preparing to display the baked bread 10 on the display shelf 103 to the time when the customer (purchaser) brings back the purchased bread 10 will be described. First, the clerk baked the bread 10 in the back room 102 shown in FIG. 1 and put the baked bread 10 in the bread storage bag 20 on the work table 108. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the top 10 a of the bread 10 is put in a state facing the front side 21 of the bread storage bag 20. On the other hand, the PLU code is stored by the reader / writer device 107 in the IC tag 30 in which the name and price of the bread 10 are printed and displayed on the display unit 32 in advance. Then, the IC tag 30 is attached with a clip 40 in the vicinity of one end 20a of the opening 23 of the bread storage bag 20 (step ST1). Next, the store clerk classifies the bread 10 contained in the bread storage bag 20 by type and displays it on the display shelf 103 while the opening 23 of the bread storage bag 20 remains open (step ST2). At this time, the bread 10 is placed on the display shelf 103 with its upper part 10 a facing upward, and the front side 21 of the bread storage bag 20 is arranged above the bread 10.

  Next, the customer who has selected the bread 10 displayed on the display shelf 103 places the bread 10 with the IC tag 30 on the tray 64 together with the bread storage bag 20 (step ST3). At this time, the pan 10 is placed on the tray 64 with the upper portion 10a facing upward, as in the case where the pan 10 is placed on the display shelf 103. When the bread 10 selected by the customer is placed on the tray 64, the tray 64 is brought to the bill settlement place 104 and placed on the tray placement surface 63 of the IC tag reader 61 as shown in FIG. 5 (step ST4).

  FIG. 5 shows a state in which the tray 64 on which the three pans 10 are placed is placed on the tray placement surface 63. By placing the tray 64 on which the pan 10 is placed on the tray placing surface 63, the PLU code of the IC tag 30 is read by the antenna 65 (step ST5). Here, the front side 21 of the bread storage bag 20 that stores the bread 10 is arranged on the upper side of the bread 10, so that the end 20 a of the opening 23 is unlikely to ride on the bread 10. The IC tag 30 suspended from the end 20a is placed on the tray 64, and the front surface 30a or the back surface 30b of the IC tag 30 tends to face the upper surface 64a of the tray 64. Therefore, the information of the IC tag 30 on the tray 64 can be instantaneously and accurately read by the antenna 65. If the IC tag 30 on the tray 64 is in a direction in which information is difficult to read by the antenna 65, such as the front surface 30a and the back surface 30b being turned sideways, the direction should be read after correcting the direction with a hand or the like. To do.

  The PLU code read by the IC tag reader 61 is transmitted to the register 62. The register 62 reads product information (product name and amount) that matches the received PLU code from the PLU file stored by itself, and calculates and displays the total price of the bread 10 on the tray 64. When the store clerk receives the price from the customer and performs the tightening operation with the register 62, the register 62 prints the details on a receipt sheet (not shown) and ends the settlement (step ST6). At this time, the store clerk removes and collects the IC tag 30 attached to the bread storage bag 20 of the bread 10 that has been paid for (step ST7). Further, the store clerk puts the bread 10 from which the IC tag 30 has been removed into the bread storage bag 20 and puts it in a take-out outer bag (not shown) and hands it to the customer (step ST8). This completes the payment of the price.

  In the above price settlement system, since the bread 10 placed on the tray 64 is put in the bread storage bag 20 in advance and displayed, it becomes hygienic and the customer has a favorable impression. Furthermore, since the individual bread 10 is stored in the bread storage bag 20, the packaging work at the time of payment settlement can be simplified, the payment can be made quickly, and the number of payment settlement apparatuses 60 installed can be reduced. The number of personnel required can be reduced.

  The IC tag reader 61 included in the payment settlement apparatus 60 includes a tray mounting surface 63 on which the tray 64 is mounted and an antenna 65 that reads information on the IC tag 30 on the mounted tray 64. If the tray 64 on which the pan 10 is placed is placed on the tray placement surface 63, the PLU code necessary for the payment settlement can be acquired and registered in the register 62 quickly and accurately, so that the payment settlement can be performed efficiently in a short time. Can be done.

  In particular, the IC tag reader 61 is provided with an antenna 65 in the tray mounting surface 63, the IC tag 30 has a flat outer shape, and the IC tag is placed when the pan 10 is mounted on the tray 64. 30 is mounted so that the front surface 30a or the back surface 30b of the 30 can face the upper surface 64a of the tray 64 so that the direction can be changed, so that the customer takes the bread 10 from the display shelf 103 and places it on the tray 64. The information of the IC tag 30 mounted on the pan 10 on the tray 64 can be read by the antenna 65 simply by placing it on the tray mounting surface 63 of the device 60, and the payment of the bread 10 is settled. It becomes possible to carry out efficiently and accurately in a short time.

  In addition, since the connector 50 for attaching the IC tag 30 in a state of being hung on the bread storage bag 20 is provided, the bread 10 can be removed even if the IC tag 30 is mounted on the bread storage bag 20 with some variation. Since the IC tag 30 is directly placed on the upper surface 64a of the tray 64 when placed on the tray 64, the front surface 30a or the back surface 30b tends to face the upper surface 64a of the tray 64. Can be read by the antenna 65, and the reading rate of the IC tag 30 can be improved.

  Further, by using the clip 40 and the ring-shaped connector 50, the IC tag mounting means and the hanging means are realized with a simple configuration at low cost. In addition, since the IC tag 30 is attached to the bread storage bag 20 with the detachable clip 40, the IC tag 30 can be easily removed from the bread storage bag 20 after the payment is completed. Since it becomes easy to use, the cost increase due to the introduction of the payment system can be suppressed.
