  With the recent increase in health-consciousness, research on healthy foods with reduced salt and calories is progressing, and convenience stores and supermarkets that provide such healthy foods are increasing. For example, such stores offer main dishes and side dishes with vegetables, salted foods, lunch boxes made of soup, rice, etc., and are reduced to around 500 kcal per serving. For this reason, it can be said that it is a very suitable menu for customers who want to improve obesity and high blood pressure, and women who are on a diet.

  However, there are not a few customers who feel unsatisfactory due to the low taste and small amount of food, and they have a favorite menu that creates a rich flavor without worrying about salt or calories. There must be many customers who want to eat as much as they like. For this reason, it is common to buy a lunch box that avoids the above healthy food, has a poor nutritional balance, has a high oil content, sugar content, salt content, and contains a large amount of lipid peroxide and additives. Purchasing and eating such lunches may be harmful to dieting customers and customers with high blood pressure. Also, those who are physically healthy often get useless extravagance if they rely on eating out. For this reason, a service that allows customers to purchase as much as they like at convenience stores and supermarkets while consuming too much salt, fat, and calories while supplementing missing nutrients has been desired. It was. When this service is realized, even when purchasing goods including convenience stores and supermarket lunch boxes, it is possible to achieve both taste and health.

  In general, such supplementation of nutrients can be realized by ingesting a creation (for example, a supplement) based on information (for example, food name, food nutrient, etc.) of the purchased item. Supplements have spread rapidly in recent years, mainly for the purpose of maintaining and promoting health, disease prevention, beauty, anti-aging, and nutritional component reinforcement. Supplements are substances that maintain health and improve unhealthy conditions by ingesting missing nutrients or consuming excess nutrients, and are usually marketed in the form of tablets, capsules, and granules. Is done. On the other hand, supplements categorized as general foods are prohibited from labeling for efficacy and efficacy under the Premium Labeling Law, etc., so consumers who take this type of supplement are products that meet their intended purpose based on their own knowledge and judgment. The general tendency is to select and purchase.

  For this reason, customers can buy and eat as much as they like, then self-analyze their health, lack of nutrients, and excess nutrients, and then take the best supplement they should take In order to actually examine this quantitatively, it is necessary to calculate with reference to various data, and this is usually done every time when eating and drinking. Have difficulty.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been proposed a supplement blending system that can determine supplements necessary for a customer, and then automatically package and provide the supplements using a packaging machine (see, for example, Patent Document 1). . In this supplement preparation system, supplements necessary for the user are determined based on data in various databases by inputting the user's symptoms, ingestion purpose, nutrients desired to be ingested, and the like. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-228561 stores in advance accumulated data obtained by accumulating user personal data for a long time, inputs the current day data when purchasing the supplement, and blends the supplement based on the accumulated data and the current day data. Is disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 2).

  Further, Patent Document 3 discloses a food information support information apparatus that uses IT technology to customize recipes and menus according to individual situations and attributes, although the technology is not limited to supplement preparation.

  However, according to the disclosed technique of Patent Documents 1-3, after purchasing and eating goods at convenience stores, supermarkets, etc., maintaining a healthy state by supplementing or consuming supplemented nutrients in a complementary manner. There was a problem that the optimal supplement could not be selected. In addition, the above-mentioned problems are similarly applied to creations (for example, beauty supplements) based on items other than food (for example, cosmetics).

  FIG. 2 shows a specific configuration example of the creation supply apparatus 1. This creative supply apparatus 1 includes an input unit 11, a supply unit 12, and a central control terminal 2. The creation supply apparatus 1 is connected to the public communication network 4 via the central control terminal 2, for example.

  The input unit 11 is a part for inputting information on an item purchased by a customer. The input unit 11 is, for example, a barcode reader that reads a barcode printed on a receipt. In addition, it may be a terminal having an IC tag reader for reading product information programmed in the IC tag or a keyboard for directly inputting product information. Information input to the input unit 11 is transmitted to the central control terminal 2. In addition, for example, the information on the item may be directly input to the input unit 11 from the store POS 7. The receipt printed from the store POS 7 such as a convenience store or a supermarket may not contain information on nutrients related to the product or information on insufficient recipes. That is, it is also possible to use a simple ordinary receipt on which a purchased item is printed. Even in this case, the creation supply apparatus 1 can also search for and provide supplements necessary for the customer from the information of the articles described in the ordinary receipt.

  The supply part 12 is a part which supplies a supplement. The supply unit 12 is pre-filled with a plurality of types of commercially available supplements, and supplies supplements based on information transmitted from the central control terminal 2. The customer can receive necessary supplements from the supply unit 12 by inputting the information on the goods to the input unit 11. The configuration of the supply unit 12 may have the shapes shown in FIGS. 12A to 18 described later, and a conventional vending machine configuration may be applied. Of course, the store side may freely set whether to provide the supplement to the customer for a fee or free of charge. Further, the supplement to be supplied can be freely selected by the customer.

  The central control terminal 2 includes a control unit 22, a communication unit 23, an analysis unit 24, a storage unit 25, a search unit 26, and an evaluation data storage unit 27, and each component is connected to the internal bus 21. ing. The central control terminal 2 may be connected to the store terminal 3, the public communication network 4 or the store POS 7 via, for example, the communication I / F 29 connected to the internal bus 21, but is not connected to each of the above configurations. Even in the case, the creation supply apparatus 1 can be operated.

  The control unit 22 is a so-called central control unit, and controls each component mounted in the central control terminal 2 by transmitting a control signal via the internal bus 21.

  The communication unit 23 performs wired communication or wireless communication between the input unit 11 and the supply unit 12 and includes a line control circuit, a signal conversion circuit, and the like for performing communication. The communication unit 23 transmits this information to the control unit 22 when information on the product is transmitted from the input unit 11. The communication unit 23 transmits supplement information including various types of information such as the composition, configuration, and amount of supplements searched under the control of the control unit 22 to the supply unit 12. Further, the communication unit 23 may transmit information to be transmitted to the control unit 22 and the supply unit 12 to the public communication network 4 through the communication I / F 29 as necessary.

  The analysis unit 24 acquires and stores in advance the ideal value of the information on the product, and analyzes the deviation tendency between the information input to the input unit 11 and the ideal value.

  Based on the control by the control unit 22, the storage unit 25 writes predetermined information for each address, and reads it as necessary. The storage unit 25 stores a program for executing the present invention. This program is read and executed by the control unit 22. In addition, the storage unit 25 stores association (first association) between the divergence tendency analyzed by the analysis unit 24 and the type of supplement to be supplemented. Further, the storage unit 25 stores the classified diagnosis results, and supplements the first association between the divergence tendency analyzed by the analysis unit 24 and the classified diagnosis results, and the classified diagnosis results. The second association with the type of supplement to be stored is stored. In addition to the above, the storage unit 25 can also store information on goods input from the input unit 11.

  The search unit 26 searches for an optimal supplement for the purchased item. When searching for supplements, the search unit 26 includes information input to the input unit 11 as necessary information, a divergence tendency analyzed by the analysis unit 24, the first association and the second association stored in the storage unit 25. Various information such as sex is read. The search unit 26 may be controlled by artificial intelligence. This artificial intelligence may be based on any known artificial intelligence technology.

  The evaluation data storage unit 27 stores evaluation data in which the evaluation result of the supplement is reflected. The evaluation data is reflected on each association by the search unit 26. The search unit 26 reflects the evaluation data on each association using, for example, artificial intelligence. The evaluation data storage unit 27 can store, for example, evaluation data transmitted from the input unit 11, the store terminal 3, the server 5, the headquarter system 6, or the customer terminal 8.

  The communication I / F 29 is mounted with a line control circuit for connecting to the public communication network 4, a signal conversion circuit for performing data communication with other terminal devices, and the like. The communication I / F 29 converts various commands from the internal bus 21 and sends them to the public communication network 4 side. When data is received from the public communication network 4, the communication I / F 29 performs predetermined conversion processing on the received data. To the internal bus 21, or the control unit 22, the search unit 26, and the like.

  For example, the internal bus 21 may include a display unit 30 and an operation unit 31. The display unit 30 is configured by a graphic controller that creates a display image based on control by the control unit 22. The display unit 30 is realized by, for example, a liquid crystal display (LCD).

  The operation unit 31 is embodied by a keyboard or a touch panel, and an execution command for executing a program is input from a store clerk or a customer. When the execution command is input by the user, the operation unit 31 notifies the control unit 22 of this. Upon receiving this notification, the control unit 22 executes a desired processing operation in cooperation with each component including the search unit 26.

  Next, operation | movement of the creation supply system 100 provided with the creation supply apparatus 1 to which this invention is applied is demonstrated.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, goods such as favorite foods and drinks are purchased at convenience stores and supermarkets. As shown in FIGS. 3 (a) and 3 (b), information on the item purchased by the customer is printed on the receipt using the store POS 7, for example, as described above.

  Information on the item printed on the receipt is transmitted to the central control terminal 2 via the input unit 11 of the creation supply device 1. The information on the item transmitted to the central control terminal 2 is once stored in the storage unit 25 via the communication unit 26. The control unit 22 can acquire information on the product purchased by the customer by reading the information on the product stored in the storage unit 25.

  At the stage where the input of the product information is completed, the central control terminal 2 performs an operation of searching for supplements to be provided to the customer. It is also possible to input a plurality of receipts to the input unit 11 and store information about a plurality of items in the storage unit 25 at a time, and input the item information and personal information such as customer attribute information. 11 can be stored in the storage unit 25 at a time.

  First, the search unit 26 aggregates the amount of nutrients based on the information on the product stored in the storage unit 25, and obtains a total value of nutrients taken by one customer. For example, if one of the items purchased by the customer was 1 beef croquette, 1 tsukeyane, noodle roll, eggplant miso boiled, and 2 deep-fried chicken, beef croquette, tsukeney Referring to the nutrient data on rolled egg, eggplant miso boiled and fried chicken, calculate the total value of the ingested nutrients.

  FIG. 4 shows an example of nutrient data to be referred to. This nutrient data is an example of beef croquette, but is composed of detailed data on each item of total calories and three major nutrients, vitamins, minerals, other (total amount of dietary fiber, salt equivalent, etc.), fatty acids, and amino acids. The In addition, the item of the component of these nutrients is not limited to the classification | category shown in FIG. 4, You may be comprised by what kind of other classification | category. These nutrient data to be referred to are stored in the storage unit 25. When the creation supply device 1 is connected to the public communication network 4, for example, nutrient data stored in advance in the headquarter system 6 or the server 5 is acquired in the storage unit 25 via the public communication network 4. May be.

  When the search unit 26 calculates the total value of the ingested nutrient based on the referenced nutrient data, the total value is aggregated for each item of the nutrient component. That is the total intake of nutrients of the product purchased by the customer (hereinafter referred to as the aggregate value).

  Next, the analysis unit 24 obtains an ideal value of nutrient intake. The ideal value of nutrient intake is an ideal nutrient intake per person, which is categorized according to age, sex, etc. and stored in the storage unit 25 in advance. The analysis unit 24 reads the ideal value of the nutrient intake from the storage unit 25. Incidentally, when the ideal value of the nutrient intake is stored in the head office system 6 or the server 5, the ideal value may be acquired via the public communication network 4.

  The analysis unit 24 analyzes the deviation tendency of the nutrient intake value from the ideal value of the nutrient intake value by comparing the ideal value of the nutrient intake value thus obtained with the aggregate value of the nutrient value. . When analyzing the deviation tendency, the analysis may be performed using any known statistical technique. As an example, as shown in FIG. 5, a difference between the aggregate value of nutrients and the ideal value of nutrient intake may be obtained and the tendency thereof may be bird's-eye view.

  FIG. 5 shows the aggregate value of nutrients-ideal value of nutrient intake in the table. “+” In this table indicates that the total value of nutrients is greater than the ideal value of nutrient intake, and “+” in the table indicates that the total value of nutrients is the ideal value of nutrient intake. It shows less cases. The analysis unit 24 analyzes the tendency of deviation from the ideal value of the nutrient intake for the aggregate value of the nutrient by overlooking the situation shown in FIG.

  Next, the search unit 26 searches for one or more diagnosis results that are highly related to the deviation tendency. The search for the diagnosis result may be performed with reference to the first association between the divergence tendency as shown in FIG. 6 and the diagnosis result categorized in advance. This first association indicates the degree to which each diagnosis result is associated with each item of divergence tendency, and may be configured by a so-called neural network. For example, for the diagnosis result regarding iron deficiency, the energy difference value and its positive / negative, iron difference value and its positive / negative, zinc difference value and its positive / negative, copper difference value and the first association with its positive / negative are defined. Yes. The first association may be defined by a binary value indicating whether or not the association is performed, or may be defined by an analog expression method. As an analog expression method of the first relevance, as for the diagnosis result regarding iron shortage, the percentage of relevance may increase as the negative difference value of iron increases. For example, 50% may be set if the difference value of iron is -1, 55% if it is -2, 75% if it is -10, and the like. As for the diagnosis result regarding iron deficiency, such an association degree is linked to each nutrient, for example, “energy” is an association degree of 65%, “iron” is an association degree of 94%, “zinc” is an association degree of 59%, “Copper” is set such that the degree of association is 83%. If the search unit 27 is controlled by artificial intelligence, these degrees of association are weighting factors in the case of performing so-called supervised learning.

  Whether or not the correlation of the diagnosis result of iron deficiency is high may be based on the degree of association of other nutrients (zinc, copper, etc.) other than iron. In such a case, for example, a threshold value is set for each of iron, zinc, and copper, and when all the threshold values are exceeded, it may be determined that the relevance is high. If it exceeds, it may be determined that the relevance is high.

  In addition, it is possible to determine whether or not the correlation of the diagnosis result of iron deficiency is high based on the relationship between other nutrients other than iron (such as zinc and copper) and other nutrients. Of course. In such a case, in the first association described above, the difference value of the divergence tendency and its positive / negative may be set for each nutrient. That is, when the search unit 27 determines whether the diagnosis result is satisfied, the search unit 27 refers to a nutrient weight having a high association degree higher and a nutrient weight having a low association degree lower. In the above example, “energy” is set to 65%, “iron” is set to 94%, “zinc” is set to 59%, “copper” is set to 83%, and so on. When the tendency is negative (that is, the difference value is negative), the more negative the difference value of “iron”, the higher the possibility of corresponding to the diagnosis result “iron shortage”. Judgment of whether or not this diagnosis result “iron deficiency” is applicable refers to the difference values of “energy”, “zinc”, “copper” other than this “iron” and its positive / negative, but the weight is low. The weight of judgment is not as high as the difference value of “Iron”.

  The relationship with other nutrients is, for example, when iron is overdose because iron is a difference value of +, if there are many other nutrients that digest iron, As a result, less iron is absorbed by the human body. For this reason, depending on the amount of other nutrients that digest iron, it may be determined that the correlation with the diagnosis result of iron deficiency is low. It is possible to make such a determination by setting the degree of association between the other nutrients that digest iron and the degree of association between the dissociation tendencies of “iron”.

  In addition, one nutrient may be set so that the first association with a plurality of diagnosis results is high, or one diagnosis result is set so that the first association with a plurality of nutrients is high. It may be.

  Similarly, other diagnosis results (vegetable deficiency, high cholesterol, fear of adult disease, etc.) are determined with reference to the first association between the tendency of divergence and the previously classified diagnosis results. Then, it is determined whether the divergence tendency analyzed this time has high correlation with what diagnosis result. The determination of whether or not the relevance is high is not limited to the case where the absolute evaluation is performed based on whether or not the threshold set for each diagnosis result is exceeded, and may be a relative evaluation. In such a case, for example, one or more of the diagnosis results having a high degree of association with the analyzed divergence may be selected from the top.

  When the difference value and the positive / negative value of the deviation tendency are weighted for each nutrient in this way for each nutrient, for example, a total sum of values after weighting performed for each nutrient is obtained, and the predetermined threshold is exceeded Alternatively, it may be determined that the diagnosis result is satisfied, and if it is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold, it may be determined that the diagnosis result is not satisfied. In addition to this, the difference value and positive / negative of the tendency of the nutrient divergence may be calculated by substituting into a well-known arithmetic expression, and the level of relevance may be determined based on the numerical value of the calculation result. .

  Note that the diagnosis result that is highly correlated with the divergence tendency analyzed this time is not limited to the selection of one, but may be a selection of two or more. That is, there are cases in which “high cholesterol” and “risk of diabetes” are selected in one search.

  Next, the search unit 26 searches for supplements from the diagnosis result determined to be highly related. The determination as to whether or not the diagnostic results are highly relevant may be binary, in other words, expressed as true or false, or may be determined in three or more stages.

  FIG. 7 shows an example of searching for one or more supplements highly related to one or more searched diagnosis results. This search for supplements is performed with reference to the association between the searched one or more diagnosis results arranged in the left column and the supplements arranged in the right column (hereinafter referred to as second association). . The second association indicates the degree to which each supplement is associated with the diagnosis result, and may be configured by a so-called neural network. For supplement A, the second relationship of lack of vegetables and high cholesterol is defined. The second association may be defined by a binary value indicating whether or not the association is simply performed, or may be defined by an analog expression method. As for the second relevance analog expression method, supplemental A is 84% vegetable deficiency, cholesterol is high, 60% is iron deficiency, 35% is iron deficiency, there is a high risk of diabetes, 26% etc. The degree may be defined quantitatively. If the search unit 27 is controlled by artificial intelligence, these degrees of association are weighting factors in the case of performing so-called supervised learning.

  The search unit 26 searches for supplements with reference to such second association. For example, if the searched diagnosis result is an iron deficiency and the second association is referred to, supplement E is highly associated with the “iron deficiency”. For this reason, supplement E is selected as a search solution as a supplement to be searched.

  In addition, for example, when the searched diagnosis result is a lack of vegetables, and the second association is referred to, supplement A is highly associated with the “vegetable shortage”. For this reason, supplement A is selected as a search solution as a supplement to be searched. In addition, when the searched diagnosis results are “vegetable shortage”, “high cholesterol”, and “high risk of diabetes”, these are all effective supplements, and the second relevance to supplement B is high. Therefore, the supplement B may be used as a search solution.

  In addition, when the searched diagnosis result is “high risk of diabetes”, when referring to the second association, supplements B, C, and E having high association with “high risk of diabetes” You may make it search, and when an association degree (weighting coefficient) is prescribed | regulated quantitatively, you may make it search for the one with the higher association degree. Even if supplement C has a lower relevance than supplement E, supplement C having a lower relevance may be selected as a search solution based on a predetermined rule. The predetermined rule here refers to a difference value or positive / negative of a certain nutrient divergence tendency shown in FIG. 6, and when this exceeds a predetermined tendency or a predetermined value, the supplement C is defined as a search solution. You may make it carry out, and you may make it reflect on the association degree by weighting the difference value and positive / negative of the deviation tendency of a certain nutrient. In this way, the second association is not limited to the case where only the association between the supplement and the diagnosis result is specified, and the relationship with the divergence tendency may be further reflected in the association.

  In addition, when the degree of association (weighting coefficient) is defined quantitatively, as an example of judging through supervised learning based on this, the diagnosis results “vegetable deficiency”, “high cholesterol”, “diabetes mellitus” The second relevance of supplement B to "there is a high risk of That is, when the association degree of “vegetable shortage” is 55%, the association degree of “high cholesterol” is 89%, and the association degree of “high risk of diabetes” is 23%, it corresponds to “vegetable shortage”. In this case, there is a higher possibility that the supplement B is searched. On the other hand, if it does not fall under “vegetable deficiency”, the possibility of searching for supplement B is low even when other “high cholesterol” and “high risk of diabetes” fall under Become.

  When the diagnosis result is weighted for each diagnosis result in this way, for example, the total of the values after weighting performed for each diagnosis result is obtained, and the total exceeds a predetermined threshold Alternatively, it may be determined that the supplement is applicable, and if the total is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold, it may be determined that the supplement is not applicable. Other than this, the diagnosis result may be calculated by substituting it into a well-known arithmetic expression, and based on the numerical value of the calculation result, it may be determined whether it corresponds to the supplement.

  In the above-described example, the case where it is expressed as a binary value indicating whether or not it corresponds to the diagnosis result has been described as an example. Similarly, when the diagnosis result is expressed in three or more stages, it may be determined. In such a case, the supplement may be determined in consideration of the rank of the diagnosis result ranked in three or more stages and the degree of association.

  In addition, as a result of the search referring to the second association, the search is not limited to a binary value indicating whether or not each supplement is applicable, and the amount of the corresponding supplement is also searched. May be. In such a case, the second association and the amount of each supplement are acquired in advance as teacher data, and based on this, not only whether or not it falls under the supplement, but also the specific supplement amount. It will be searched.

  Moreover, although the search part 26 demonstrated taking the case of searching for a diagnostic result via a 1st association from a divergence tendency and searching for a supplement via a 2nd association from a diagnostic result, it was limited to this. It is not a thing. That is, as shown in FIG. 8, the supplement may be searched directly from the deviation tendency without searching the diagnosis result. That is, the first association is directly connected to the second association. These are collectively defined as linkage. The actual search method is the same as that based on the first association and the second association, but the supplement is searched straight without obtaining the diagnosis result each time.

  That is, the search unit 26 refers to such association and searches for one or more supplements based on the analyzed divergence tendency. The searched supplement corresponds to the optimum supplement that the customer should take based on the diagnosis result obtained by analyzing the lack of nutrients and excess nutrients in the information on the goods purchased by the customer. Various types of information regarding the type and amount of supplement searched for by the search unit 26 are hereinafter referred to as supplement information. The search unit 26 generates the supplement information, stores it in the storage unit 25 under the control of the control unit 22, and transmits the supplement information to the supply unit 12 through the communication unit 23.

  The supply unit 12 receives supplement information via the communication unit 23. The supply unit 12 supplies one or more supplements to be replenished by the customer based on the supplement information received. The supplement supplied from the supply unit 12 is filled in, for example, a preinstalled bag.

  In addition, the provision and sale of supplements in the creative product supply system 100 are not limited to the case where the customer performs the purchase after purchasing the product. If at least information on the item to be purchased can be obtained, a supplement most suitable for the customer can be selected. For this reason, when purchasing goods, for example, the information of goods may be input into the input part 11 using the shop POS7, and supplement information may be acquired. Moreover, you may make it introduce and distribute a supplement with respect to the customer who purchases goods. Moreover, you may make it provide a customer by mixing the same component as a supplement with food and drink instead of distributing a supplement.

  In addition, the creation supply apparatus 1 may allow a customer to freely select a supplement. For example, the product supply apparatus 1 may select a supplement from a cosmetic viewpoint with respect to a purchased item. In this case, for example, nutrients, supplement information to be supplemented, and the like may be displayed on the display unit 23. Thereby, the customer can confirm the content displayed on the display unit 23 and can freely select the supplement to be received. Moreover, you may set so that the creative supply apparatus 1 may select a supplement from a cosmetic viewpoint.

  In addition to the above, the creation supply apparatus 1 may transmit product information and supplement information to the customer terminal 8. Thereby, the customer can receive supplements freely from the crop supply device 1 or supplement bar provided in other stores, and can also manage daily health.

  In this way, in the creation supply system 100 to which the present invention is applied, the customer purchases as much as he / she wants at a convenience store, supermarket, etc., while analyzing the nutrients of the food / drink to eat and drink. So, you can replenish the missing nutrients while consuming too much salt, fat, and calories. As a result, the customer can satisfy both the sense of satisfaction and the health when purchasing goods. Moreover, with each purchase, it is possible to analyze such nutrients, search for the optimal supplement, provide the supplement, and notify the customer. For this reason, customers purchase as much as they like at convenience stores, supermarkets, etc., then self-analyze their health, lack of nutrients, and excess nutrients before taking them. It also eliminates the need to consider each time a product is purchased to determine what the optimal supplement components should be. In addition, by providing a service that satisfies such a sense of taste as well as a health aspect, it is possible to improve sales by differentiating from other stores.

  In addition, in the crop supply system 100 to which the present invention is applied, as shown in FIG. 9, the second correlation between the typed diagnosis result and attribute information and the type of supplement to be supplemented is acquired. May be. This attribute information includes, for example, general personal information such as the customer's age, sex, occupation, nationality, and address, as well as information on the body, spirit, and chronicity of the customer, such as obesity, thinness, pregnancy, and diet. Medium, high blood pressure, diabetes, weak constitution, vulnerable to alcohol, arrhythmia, etc. In addition, this attribute information may include information such as headache, poor gastrointestinal condition, mania, cold, etc. as physical condition at the time of eating and drinking, and data such as fatigue level, body temperature, blood pressure, etc. It may be included. Such attribute information may be input by the customer or the store clerk via the input unit 11 or the operation unit 25, or input using the customer terminal 8, and the creative supply device via the public communication network 4. 1 may be transmitted.

  In many cases, attribute information correlates with a diagnosis result, and supplements and associations are set. If the diagnosis result is “fat-rich”, it is assumed that supplement A is the most effective in degrading fat. If the customer is an obese body, supplement A has a high probability. Therefore, it can be said that the second association between the “obesity body shape” and the “supplement A” is preferably set to be high. Similarly, for hypertensive customers, the second linkage is set so that supplements effective for high blood pressure are selected with a high probability. In addition to this, the second association may be set so that there is a high possibility that an optimal supplement is selected according to all attribute information such as sex and age. As a result, it is possible to select an optimal supplement suitable for each gender and age.

  In this way, the second relevance is optimal in relation to the nutrients ingested in eating and drinking while taking into account the health status, physical condition, chronic illness, etc. of the customer by including attribute information in addition to the diagnosis result. It is possible to search for supplements.

  When this attribute information is input, the attribute information may be reflected in the ideal value of nutrient intake, in addition to being included in the second association described above. That is, when the attribute information is “obese body shape”, for example, the ideal value of “lipid” in FIG. 6 is modified to be lower. As a result, there are many cases where the actually ingested lipid diverges higher than the ideal value, and it becomes easy to select, for example, “fat rich” as a diagnosis result due to excessive intake of lipid, and this is highly related to the second. Supplements are easier to choose.

  Further, according to the present invention, when the search unit 26 is controlled by artificial intelligence, the first association and the second association may be updated by learning. As described above, the diagnosis result is searched based on supervised learning based on the first association, and the supplement is searched based on supervised learning based on the second association. The evaluation data reflecting the evaluation of the supplement intake person may be reflected for each of the first association and the second association. The evaluation data includes data detected through various functional group sensors, supplementary data such as body temperature, blood pressure, blood, weight, electrocardiogram, and the like for each supplement.

  The evaluation data referred to here is data reflecting the impressions and word-of-mouth by the customer who actually eats and drinks at a restaurant and ingests the supplement supplied by the creative product supply apparatus 1 to which the present invention is applied. This evaluation data shows that customers who have taken the supplements supplied by the creation supply device 1 are “health improved”, “weight has fallen”, “becomes a good night's sleep”, “morning awakening” ”Was refreshing”, “healed stiff shoulders” and positive evaluations such as “I do not feel well”, “I gained weight”, “I can't cure insomnia”, “I feel nauseous”, etc. Negative evaluation is also included.

  If the evaluation data is temporary or long-term test data of the body, the blood test will result in a negative evaluation if the cholesterol level is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, and positive if it is less than the predetermined threshold. You may make it set as an evaluation. Further, a negative evaluation may be made when the increase in weight is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, and a positive evaluation may be made when the weight increase is less than the predetermined threshold value.

  The evaluation data is acquired through the public communication network 4 from, for example, a questionnaire survey conducted by a restaurant, writing on a site on the Internet, writing on Twitter (registered trademark), LINE (registered trademark), or the like. Also good. Evaluation data based on the questionnaire is input via the headquarters system 6 or the store terminal 3 based on the questionnaire, and evaluation data from the public communication network 4 is stored in the evaluation data via the communication I / F 29. Stored in the unit 27. The evaluation data may be stored in the server 5 and only necessary information may be transmitted to the evaluation data storage unit 27.

  Incidentally, the type of the evaluation data is arbitrary as long as it can be reflected in the creation supply apparatus 1. For example, in a questionnaire survey, if a customer's name, product information, supplement information, or IC tag reference number is written on a questionnaire, it can be reflected in the creation supply apparatus 1 based on that information. is there. Also, when obtaining evaluation data from the public communication network 4, the customer's name, product information, supplement information, IC tag reference number, etc., or a member's card if the store has a member's card, etc. Can be reflected in the creative product supply apparatus 1.

  The search unit 26 acquires such evaluation data and analyzes it. This analysis may be based on general well-known text mining techniques. Through text mining technology, it is specified whether the evaluation is positive or negative.

  The search unit 26 specifies the nutrients of the product by referring to the information on the product stored in the storage unit 25 from the information on the product that is the transmission source and the generation source of the evaluation data, and through the above-described search, It is specified what supplement is searched for through the association degree of the first association and the second association. Further, it is determined whether the specified evaluation data is positive or negative.

  If the specified evaluation data is affirmative, it can be understood that the supplement searched for by the search unit 26 and provided to the customer was appropriate for the customer. In such a case, the search unit 26 does not particularly do anything with respect to the association of the first association and the second association, or when actually proposing the supplement, the association connected by the arrow that results in the supplement. Update to a higher degree. In the examples of FIGS. 6 and 7, the diagnosis result is “high risk of diabetes”, and the selected supplement is supplement E. As a result, positive evaluation data is obtained from the customer who actually took supplement E. In the second linkage, the degree of linkage between this supplement E and “high risk of diabetes” is increased, and the linkage of nutrients leading to “high risk of diabetes” is set in the first linkage. Update to be higher.

  If the specified evaluation data is negative, it can be understood that the supplement searched by the search unit 26 and notified to the customer is inappropriate for the customer. In such a case, when the search unit 26 actually proposes supplements for the association of the first association and the second association, the search unit 26 updates the associations connected by the arrows resulting from the supplements to be low. To do. In the example of FIGS. 6 and 7, when the diagnosis result is “vegetable deficiency” and the selected supplement is supplement B, negative evaluation data is obtained from the customer who actually took supplement B In the second association, updating is performed so that the degree of association between the supplement B and “vegetable shortage” is lowered, and the degree of association of the nutrients that lead to “vegetable shortage” is lowered in the first association.

  In this way, the search unit 26 controlled by artificial intelligence performs learning by updating the first association and the second association based on the evaluation data. By repeating such learning, it is possible to optimize the first association and the second association so that a supplement more appropriate for the customer is selected.

  In the above-described embodiment, an example is given in which the evaluation data is ranked in two stages, positive or negative, and the degree of association between the first association and the second association is changed accordingly. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the evaluation data may be ranked in three or more stages, and the first association and the second association may be changed according to the ranks of the three or more stages.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the supplement to be selected is a so-called mixed supplement that includes a plurality of components has been described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to this. As shown in FIG. 10, a supplement composed of a single component may be selected. Even in such a case, for example, there are vitamin C, collagen, carnitine, mineral, coenzyme, and the like as supplements composed of a single component, and the second association of these with the diagnostic result is acquired in advance. And the supplement which consists of a single component will be selected from the diagnosis result specified from the nutrient of the food / drink which the customer actually ingested based on this 2nd linkage. And this 2nd relevance will be updated based on evaluation data.

  In addition, although not shown, if the diagnosis result is “reducing appetite and suppressing excessive intake of calories”, theanine, gabba, mate extract, etc. are considered to be highly linked in the second linkage. . If the result of diagnosis is “inhibits sugar absorption in the intestine”, Gymnema, Salacia and the like are considered to be highly linked in the second linkage. If the diagnosis result is “inhibits fat absorption in the intestine”, “chitosan, saponin” is considered to have a high degree of association in the second association. If the diagnosis result is “facilitate fat excretion”, “lecithin” is considered to have a high degree of association in the second association.

  Similarly, as shown in FIG. 11, it is of course possible to select a supplement composed of a single component even when searching for a supplement directly from a deviation tendency without searching for a diagnosis result.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the search for supplements is all performed by the search unit 26 in the central control terminal 2 has been described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to this. In the headquarters system 6 composed of the same components as the central control terminal 2, a supplement is searched for, and the central control terminal 2 acquires this via the public communication network 4 and notifies the customer or store clerk. It may be. The search for supplements performed by the search unit 26 may be performed via any other electronic device connected to the public communication network 4, or all these processes may be performed on the cloud side. Good.

  Further, storage of product information, supplement information, first association, second association, and the like is not limited to the case where the storage unit 25 performs storage, and the server 5 may store the information. The first association and the second association stored in the server 5 are used for a supplement search in another central control terminal 2 in another store connected through the public communication network 4. It may be.

  According to the present invention, it can be similarly applied to a delivery-type service. Even in such a case, for example, the store clerk may receive the supplement from the creation supply apparatus 1 and deliver the article together with the supplement at the same time.

  In the delivery-type service, when an item is ordered directly from the customer terminal 8 via the public communication network 4, the creation supply device 1 receives this and selects a supplement based on the algorithm described above. You may make it do.

  In the present invention, product information and supplement information may be stored in the storage unit 25 and the server 5, and management data in units of periods such as weeks or months may be managed for each customer. In the above-described example, the optimal supplement is selected for each unit of food and drink, but it is also possible to select the optimal supplement for each period such as weekly or monthly.

  In addition, when a customer purchases a plurality of items at the same time, information on the items is output at a time. For example, the information on the items can be divided or grouped using the input unit 11 or the operation unit 25. It may be. Thereby, even when goods for a plurality of people or goods for a plurality of meals are purchased at a time, an appropriate supplement can be received.

  Furthermore, according to this invention, you may make it transmit the information of the food / drinks ingested before purchasing goods from the input part 11 or the customer terminal 8 to the central control terminal 2. FIG. The central control terminal 2 that has received such information may add data on nutrients of food and drink such as breakfast taken in advance, for example, when tabulating the nutrients taken by the customer. The nutrient data of the food and drink ingested in advance is obtained by acquiring the name of the food and drink, and reading the data of the nutrient corresponding to this from the data stored in the storage unit 25 in the central control terminal 2. Alternatively, it may be acquired via the public communication network 4.

  In addition to the above, the creation supply device 1 compares the result of the blood test of the customer, the information on the medicine to be taken, and the information on the product, and determines whether there is any food or supplement that the customer should not take. May be. When foodstuffs or supplements that should not be ingested by the customer are included, it is possible to notify the customer to that effect, for example, via the display unit 23 or a lamp or speaker (not shown). In addition, the said determination and notification may be used as a warning with respect to a customer's allergic constitution.

  The creation supply system 100 can collect and manage information on the creation supply apparatus 1 in the server 5. For this reason, for example, it is possible to avoid fraud and mistakes such as obtaining a supplement many times from a plurality of creation supply devices 1 using a single receipt. In addition, nutrition advice and campaign information based on the above information can be provided to the customer terminal 8, and measures that lead to store visit promotion can be achieved.

  Next, an example of the structure of the creation supply apparatus 1 to which the present invention is applied will be described.

  FIG. 12A and FIG. 12B are perspective views showing an example of the structure of the creation supply apparatus 1. As shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B, the creation supply apparatus 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped housing, for example. The input unit 11 is provided on the lower side of the housing. Among the supply unit 12, the container 12a for filling supplements is provided on the upper side of the housing, and the take-out port 12d is provided on the lower side of the housing. The central control terminal 2 is provided on the lower side of the casing and is covered so as not to be seen from the outside. The container 12a is made of, for example, a resin transparent material, and can make the color beauty of the supplement filled in the container 12a stand out.

  A barcode reader connected to the central control terminal 2 is provided in the upper part of the input unit 11, and the barcode can be read by holding a receipt or the like over the input unit 11. Thereby, the information of goods can be easily input without contact and the hygienic input part 11 can be maintained.

  The central control terminal 2 is composed of, for example, a control board and Raspberry Pi (registered trademark). Thereby, size reduction and cost reduction of the creation supply apparatus 1 can be achieved. In addition, compatibility with other communication terminals can be improved. In addition, the central control terminal 2 may be provided with a watchdog timer or the like so as to monitor the abnormality of the crop supply device 1 and execute automatic restart when the abnormality occurs. In addition, a lamp or the like that notifies the activation state of the central control terminal 2 may be provided in the housing. For example, the lamp may be turned off during start-up preparation, and the lamp may be turned on during start-up. In addition to the above, the central control terminal 2 may include an audio amplifier circuit, a speaker, and the like. Thereby, for example, a warning in the case of incorrect use of the creation supply device 1, a sound for preventing supplements from being forgotten, and a sound material for sales promotion can be played.

  FIG. 13A to FIG. 13C are schematic diagrams illustrating an example of the structure of the supply unit 12. 13A is a top view of the supply unit 12, FIG. 13B is a front view of the supply unit 12, and FIG. 13C is a lateral view of the supply unit 12.

  As shown in FIGS. 12A to 13C, the supply unit 12 includes a plurality of plate portions 12b that divide the space in the container 12a and a plurality of intakes 12c provided under the container 12a. Have. The intake 12c is controlled by the central control terminal 2 and takes out an appropriate supplement to the outlet 12d. A slope 12e is provided between the plurality of intakes 12c and the take-out port 12d to guide the supplement to the take-out port 12d.

  FIG. 14A and FIG. 14B are schematic diagrams illustrating an example of an operation in which supplements are supplied from the supply unit 12. FIG. 14A is a front view of the supply unit 12, and FIG. 14B is a lateral view of the supply unit 12.

  As shown in FIGS. 14 (a) and 14 (b), the supplement S sent out from the plurality of intakes 12c is taken out at once from the take-out port 12d via the slope 12e. For this reason, the supplement S filled in the container 12a moves in the housing until it is taken out from the take-out port 12d. Thereby, mixing of a foreign material etc. can be prevented in the supply part 12, and the sanitary supplement S can be supplied. An interlock using, for example, a microswitch is provided below the extraction port 12d. The interlock can prevent the supplement S from being supplied unless a bag is prepared at the outlet 12d.

  Next, an example of the clogging prevention structure of the supply unit 12 will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 (a) to 16 (b). FIGS. 15A, 16A, and 16B are schematic cross-sectional views around the intake 12c, and FIGS. 15B and 15C are schematic plan views of the intake 12c. .

  As shown in FIGS. 15A to 15C, the intake 12c has a stirring pin 12ca on the upper side and a bat 12cb on the lower side. The stirring pin 12ca is provided on the upper side and the bat 12cb is provided on the lower side with respect to the lower part 12aa of the container 12a. The intake 12c has a solenoid controlled by the central control terminal 2, and rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. For this reason, the stirring pin 12ca and the bat 12cb rotate in the directions indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 15B and 15C, respectively. Thereby, as shown to Fig.16 (a) and FIG.16 (b), the stirring pin 12ca can suppress clogging of the supplement S in lower part 12aa. Further, a shutter 12ab made of a flexible material is provided at the lower end of the lower portion 12aa. When the bat 12cb rotates, only one supplement S is brought into contact. As a result, one supplement S can be reliably removed from the container 12a. For example, an elastic body such as a spring is used as the stirring pin 12ca. For this reason, when the stirring pin 12ca hits the fitting portion of the supplement S, the stirring pin 12ca is deformed. Thereby, it is not necessary to disturb the operation of the bat 12cb, and one supplement S can be reliably taken out from the container 12a. Further, the surface of the stirring pin 12ca and the surface of the intake 12c may be integrally covered with, for example, a resin. Thereby, mixing of a foreign material by deterioration of the stirring pin 12ca can be prevented. In this case, the stirring pin 12ca may have a helical structure or a swing arm structure.

  FIG. 17 is a perspective view showing another example of the structure of the supply unit 12. In the case of this structure, the container 12a has a step. Thereby, it becomes easy to confirm the supplement filled in the back, and forgetting to replenish can be prevented.

  FIG. 18 is a perspective view showing still another example of the structure of the supply unit 12. In the case of this structure, the supply part 12 has a cylindrical container 12a and a shaft part 12s on the central axis of the container 12a. The container 12a can be rotated in the direction of the arrow in the drawing with the shaft portion 12s as a rotation axis. Thereby, size reduction of the creation supply apparatus 1 is attained, and it can be easy to ensure the space installed in a shop. In the creative supply apparatus 1 shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the input unit 11 and the central control terminal 2 may be provided below the container 12a, and are provided apart from the casing including the container 12a. May be.

  Each of the supply units 12 illustrated in FIGS. 12A to 18 has a structure in which a supplement is filled in a sealed space. Therefore, there is no possibility that foreign matter is mixed in, and the sanitary supply unit 12 can be maintained. In addition, the container 12a can be locked, so that only the store clerk can touch the container 12a. Furthermore, supplementation can be easily performed, and maintenance in a short working time is possible. In addition to the above, the take-out portion 12d is provided on the lower side of the container 12a, and the supplement replenishing port is provided on the upper side of the container 12a. For this reason, when a new supplement is replenished, it can be supplied from the supplement remaining in the container 12a. Thereby, the first-in first-out supplement can be realized without taking time and effort.

  The container 12a may be removable. Thereby, cleaning of the container 12a can be performed in preparation. In addition to the above, the container 12a can be removed independently for each portion where the supplement is filled, and a cartridge filled with the supplement is installed in each space surrounded by the plate portion 12b in the container 12a. It may be a structure.
