The present invention relates to a system and method for opening and closing a lock of a cargo container using an electronic tag and position recognition technology, and in particular, storing the electronic tag number of the lock installed in the cargo container together with the scheduled delivery information of the delivery schedule information processing system. After that, the location information and the electronic tag number received from the GPS in the area where the cargo container arrived to the delivery schedule information processing system to check whether or not matching with the pre-registered delivery schedule information registered to open and close the system It is about a method.

Recently, due to the activation of the domestic logistics market, as well as overseas export and import markets, the freight is increasing, the reality is that the risk of loss of cargo as well as damage during transportation of the cargo is increasing.

Accordingly, a cargo container lock has been widely developed and utilized for security of cargo and loss of cargo that may occur during transportation of cargo.

However, the present cargo container locking device is inconvenient to use because the locking device is very complicated by simply installing the locking device in a double or triple lock on a door of a vehicle such as a vehicle for carrying cargo.

In addition, the current cargo container lock can easily unlock the cargo container anywhere, regardless of the location, the reality is that the cargo container lock is released before the shipment arrives at the destination, theft occurs. .

As a result, if theft occurs during the delivery as described above, since the carrier and the customer have to reveal the responsibility for the loss of the freight, a lot of time is wasted and the property damage to the customer and adversely affect the reliability of the customer. Get mad.

The present invention has been made in view of the above, and an object of the present invention is to provide a cargo container opening and closing system and method using an electronic tag and position recognition technology in order to prevent theft and loss of shipping cargo contained in the cargo container.

Cargo container opening and closing system using the electronic tag and position recognition technology of the present invention for solving the above problems, a cargo container lock device with a built-in electronic tag information that can open and close the cargo container, electronic tag information of the lock device To the delivery schedule information processing system, handling the opening and closing of the cargo container lock, GPS-based personal portable terminal, GPS satellites to communicate the current position of the personal portable terminal to the personal portable terminal by communicating with the GPS and And a delivery schedule information processing system for generating an opening / closing approval signal of the cargo container lock by comparing the electronic tag information and the current location information transmitted from the personal portable terminal with the previously stored delivery schedule information and the electronic tag number information. It is configured by.

In addition, in the method for opening and closing the cargo container using the electronic tag and position recognition technology of the present invention, the lock process of the cargo container lock device is built in the cargo container lock device installed in the cargo container through a personal portable terminal. Recognizing the electronic tag number, transmitting the electronic tag number recognized through the electronic tag information recognition unit to the delivery schedule information processing system and storing the electronic tag number in the memory. Transmitting the transmission to the personal portable terminal through the transmission and reception unit, and locking the cargo container locking device under the control of the processing control unit of the personal portable terminal according to the transmitted approval information.

In addition, in the method for opening and closing the cargo container using the electronic tag and position recognition technology of the present invention, the process of releasing the cargo container lock device, the electronic tag of the cargo container lock device through the electronic tag recognition unit of the personal portable terminal Recognizing the number, and receiving the current position of the personal portable terminal from the GPS satellite via GPS, the electronic tag number of the cargo container lock recognized through the electronic tag recognition unit and the personal portable terminal received from the GPS satellite Transmitting information about the current location to the delivery schedule information processing system, the electronic tag number and current location information received from the transmission and reception unit of the delivery schedule information processing system is registered in advance and stored in the memory of the delivery schedule information processing system Whether or not the information matches the electronic tag number information, And then retransmitting the result to the personal portable terminal, and performing the release processing of the cargo container lock through the processing control unit when it is confirmed that the confirmed result information is matched.

(Example)

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.

Figure 1 schematically shows a cargo container opening and closing system using the electronic tag and position recognition technology of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, a cargo container opening and closing system using an electronic tag and position recognition technology includes a cargo container locking device 10 having electronic tag information for opening and closing the cargo container 50, and a cargo container locking device ( 10) the personal portable terminal 20 equipped with a GPS 13 for opening and closing the GPS, the GPS satellite 30 for transmitting the current position to the personal portable terminal 20, and stores the shipment schedule information It is composed of a delivery schedule information processing system 40 for determining and approving the opening and closing of the container lock device 10.

Figure 2 is a flow chart for explaining the opening and closing process of the locking device by the cargo container opening and closing system according to the present invention, in connection with Figure 1 will be described in detail the opening and closing processing of the locking device.

First, the locking process of the cargo container locking device 10 of the cargo container 50 for transport by the delivery means will be described.

First, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the electronic tag information recognition unit 11 of the personal portable terminal 20 recognizes the electronic tag number embedded in the cargo container locking device 10 installed in the cargo container 50 (S10). ).

The electronic tag number recognized through the electronic tag information recognition unit 11 of the personal portable terminal 20 as described above is to be scheduled for delivery information processing system 40 through the electronic tag information transmission and reception unit 12 of the personal portable terminal 20. ), And the transmitted electronic tag number is received by the transmission and reception unit 15 of the delivery schedule information processing system 40 and stored in the memory 16 (S20).

When the electronic tag number is normally stored in the memory 16 of the delivery schedule information processing system 40 as described above, the processing control unit 17 of the delivery schedule information processing system 40 transmits the approval information through the transmission and reception unit 15. Transfer to the personal portable terminal 20.

The approval information transmitted from the transceiving unit 15 of the delivery schedule information processing system 40 is received by the transceiving unit 12 of the personal portable terminal 20, and the personal portable terminal 20 is received by the received approval information. By locking the cargo container locking device 10 of the cargo container 50 under the control of the processing control unit 14 (S30), the lock processing process is completed.

Then, the cargo container 50 is locked as described above is moved to the destination by the delivery means (S40).
