The operation of the second embodiment of the "authentication automatic packaging machine authentication device" according to the present invention configured as described above will be described in detail as follows.

First, in order for the user to use the semi-automatic drug packaging machine, the user must register the fingerprint information of the user and perform authentication when using the drug. Referring to the fingerprint registration process, the mode selection unit 540 selects the fingerprint registration mode and inputs the user's information through the keypad 200. Thereafter, when the fingerprint is touched at the fingerprint scan position, the fingerprint scan unit 510 scans the fingerprint, and the fingerprint information processor 520 processes the scanned fingerprint image. The fingerprint image thus processed is registered in the fingerprint database 560 through the fingerprint registration / deletion unit 550 together with the user information.

Thereafter, the fingerprint authentication mode is selected through the mode selector 540 for fingerprint authentication, and when the fingerprint is touched at the fingerprint scan position, the fingerprint scan unit 510 scans the fingerprint, and the fingerprint information processor 520 scans the fingerprint. Process the image. Next, if the same fingerprint is registered by comparing the fingerprint image processed by the fingerprint authentication unit 530 with the pre-registered fingerprint information in the fingerprint database 560, it is determined as a normal user and a control signal for generating a power control signal. It generates and provides to the power control signal generator 570. Unlike this, if the processed fingerprint image is not registered in the fingerprint database 560, the warning unit 580 warns that the user is an unregistered user. Here, the warning unit 580 warns that an unregistered user is audiovisually. The power control signal generator 570 generates a power control signal capable of operating the semi-automatic drug packaging machine in response to the power control signal generation control to be transmitted to the main board 400.

Next, referring to the registered fingerprint deletion process, the fingerprint selection mode is selected through the mode selector 540, and when the fingerprint is touched at the fingerprint scan position, the fingerprint scan unit 510 scans the fingerprint and the fingerprint information processor 520. ) Process the scanned fingerprint image. The processed fingerprint image is transferred to the fingerprint registration / deletion unit 550 through the fingerprint authentication unit 530, and the fingerprint registration / deletion unit 550 searches for the fingerprint database 560 to delete the fingerprint. Here, when deleting a registered fingerprint, it is preferable to check whether there is a right to delete a registered fingerprint, and then reinforce security by allowing only authorized persons to delete registered fingerprint information. Here, it is also possible to find the relevant information and delete the registered fingerprint information without inputting the fingerprint image to be deleted when deleting the registered fingerprint information. Even in this case, it is desirable to check whether there is an authority to delete a registered fingerprint, and then reinforce security by allowing only authorized persons to delete registered fingerprint information.

The power supply controller 430 of the main board 400 supplies driving power to the CPU 440 only when a power control signal is transmitted from the user authentication unit 500.

That is, the power supply control unit 430 converts the commercial AC power input from the rectifying unit 431 into a predetermined DC voltage, and a part of the power supply unit 432 supplies the user authentication unit 500 with the rest of the power supply unit 432. It will be supplied to the automatic medicine packing machine. In this case, since the power control switch 434 is turned off in a state where user authentication is not performed, driving power is not supplied to the CPU 440. Therefore, the automatic drug packaging machine does not operate until user authentication is performed. The power control unit 433 controls the power control switch 434 to an on state when a power control signal for operating the automatic medicine packing machine is applied. By this control, the power supplied from the power supply unit 432 is supplied to the central processing unit 440 through the power control switch 434, the central processing unit 440 is started to operate the automatic drug packaging machine. In other words, the automatic drug packaging machine is operated only when the user authentication is made. Hereinafter, the control of the automatic drug packaging machine is omitted because it is the same as the conventional control.

Since the operation of the sensor unit 410, the motor driving unit 420, the power supply unit 430, and the display device 450 of the configuration constituting the main board 400 is the same as the operation of the conventional semi-automatic drug packaging machine, a detailed description Omit.

As shown therein, step S101 of confirming whether the fingerprint registration request is granted; Registering the fingerprint by receiving the fingerprint and the user information (S103, S105) when the fingerprint registration request is received as a result of the checking; Checking whether the fingerprint is a registered fingerprint deletion request when the fingerprint is not a fingerprint registration request, and deleting a selected fingerprint only when the fingerprint is deleted when the fingerprint is a registered fingerprint deletion request (S107 to S113); If it is not the registered fingerprint deletion request, checking whether the fingerprint is authenticated and scanning and processing the input fingerprint in the case of the fingerprint authentication request (S115 to S117); Performing authentication by comparing the processed fingerprint image with a fingerprint image previously registered in a fingerprint database (S119); If the fingerprint is not registered as a result of performing the authentication, the non-registered warning to the audio and visual, and if the registered fingerprint is sent to the main board authentication data or power control signal for the operation of the automatic drug packaging machine (S121, S123).

The user authentication processing in the user authentication unit of the automatic drug packaging machine authentication method according to the present invention as described above, in step S101 checks whether the fingerprint registration request. As a result of this check, if the fingerprint registration request is made, the process moves to step S103 to receive a fingerprint and user information to be registered, and the fingerprint is registered in step S105. The fingerprint registration process is the same as the fingerprint registration process of FIGS. 2 and 4.

Next, if the check result of step S101 does not indicate a fingerprint registration request, the process proceeds to step S107 to confirm whether the registration fingerprint is a deletion request. If the registration fingerprint deletion request is performed, the process proceeds to step S109 to confirm whether or not there is a fingerprint deletion authority. Here, checking whether the right to delete the fingerprint is to solve various problems that may occur later due to the indiscriminate registration of the fingerprint, for example, a troublesome problem of re-registering by incorrectly deleting the fingerprint. The fingerprint selected in steps S111 and S113 is deleted only when the fingerprint deletion authority is found as a result of the confirmation. The fingerprint deletion process is the same as the fingerprint deletion process of FIGS. 2 and 4.

Next, if the check result of step S107 is not the request for deletion of the registered fingerprint, go to step S115 to check whether the fingerprint is authenticated, and if the check result, go to step S117 to scan the input fingerprint and Will be processed.

Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S119 to perform authentication by comparing the processed fingerprint image with a fingerprint image previously registered in the fingerprint database. If the fingerprint is not registered as a result of performing the authentication, go to step S121 to warn the user unregistered visually, otherwise, if the fingerprint is registered, go to step S123 to activate the authentication data or power control signal for the operation of the automatic drug packaging machine. Will be sent to the board.

7 is a flowchart illustrating a system control process on a main board of the authentication method of the automatic medicine packing machine according to the present invention, and checking whether authentication data is received in a standby state (S201 and S203); Decrypting the received authentication data when the authentication data is received (S205); In step S207, the system is activated in response to the decrypted authentication data.

The system control process in the main board made in this way confirms whether authentication data is received in step S203 in the standby state as in step S201. If the authentication data is received as a result of the check, the process proceeds to step S205 to decrypt the authentication data. In step S207, the decrypted authentication data is analyzed to determine that the authentication data for system operation starts the system.

That is, in the present invention, the semi-automatic drug automatic packaging machine is operated only when it is determined that the authorized user is authenticated after the authentication is performed, thereby preventing inadvertent operation or misoperation by an inexperienced user. It is possible to eliminate the causes such as the breakdown of the automatic drug packaging machine to save the maintenance cost.

On the other hand, in the present invention, when the power control signal is transmitted from the user authentication unit to the main board, the power supply control unit supplies the driving power to the central processing unit, so that the operation of the system is made. Even in this case, since the operation of the automatic drug packaging machine is controlled according to the user's authentication, it is possible to prevent misoperation or the like by the indiscriminate user's operation in advance, thus eliminating the cause such as the failure of the automatic drug packaging machine. Maintenance costs can also be saved.
