It is also possible to display the above URL on the display unit 16 of the RFID tag 10 so that consumers can easily access the online site.

The transfer tracking management number may be composed of 12 digits as a management number used to inquire related information at each stage of production, distribution, and sale of sun salt.

The 12-digit transfer tracking control number may be composed of a producer number (5 digits), a manufacturing year (2 digits), and a product serial number (5 digits). It is desirable to have a traceability control number assigned.

Therefore, if the same producer produced the same type of sun salt at the same time, each sun salt product is given a different object identification number, but the traceability control number is given the same number.

In general, natural salt producer's product order processing process is divided into five stages (1.Order, 2.Checking product, 3.Wait for shipment, 4.Complete shipment, 9.Complete transaction). If the tag 10 is issued and attached, it is in the '3. shipping waiting' state in the '2. product checking' step.

The tag issuing means 20 is wirelessly connected to the RFID tag 10 so that an object identification number and a tag identification number can be input and used in the RFID tag 10.

In addition, the tag issuing means 20 generates a radio signal of the UHF band, so that the RFID tag 10 can record the information to obtain the induced magnetic field energy through the radio signal of the UHF band, the radio signal is UHF It is not limited only to the signal of the band.

The tag recognition means 30 generates a radio signal in the UHF band for reading information input into the memory of the RFID tag 10, the RFID tag 10 is induced magnetic field energy through the radio signal in the UHF band Acquire the information to be transmitted, but the wireless signal is not limited to the signal of the UHF band.

In addition, the tag recognition means 30 each gives a unique identification number (Device ID), and registers the identification number to the server 50, the server 50 in the information of the RFID tag 10 When transmitting, it is preferable to check whether the stored identification number has been given the tag recognition means 30, so that only the registered tag recognition means 30 can access the origin verification program of the server 50.

In addition, the tag issuance means 20 and the tag recognition means 30 may be implemented in a single device, such equipment is an RFID terminal capable of reading (Reading) and writing (Writing) of the RFID tag 10 ( It is also possible to implement using 100, it is preferable to configure a mobile RFID terminal 100 that can be easily used in the distribution site.

The server 50 is capable of creating a DB, and is connected to the communication network 40 to store the object identification number and the tag identification number received from the tag issuing means 20.

In addition, the server 50 is created and managed by the DB of the country of origin verification program, and includes an interface for input and output of information.

The communication network 40 may use a wired or wireless communication network 40, and the wireless communication network 40 may be a wireless LAN, Bluetooth, CDMA, or the like.

Referring to the natural salt distribution history tracking method using the RFID tag 10 according to the present invention.

First, in order to issue the RFID tag 10, an object DB 51 is created by inputting a number to be assigned to a unique object identification number to be input to the RFID tag 10 to the server 50 (S101).

The unique object identification number may use an EPC (Electronic Product Code), a UID (Unique ID), etc. as a code corresponding to the sun salt to which the RFID tag is attached. It is not.

Next, in the step of inputting the object identification number and the unique tag identification number into the memory of the RFID tag 10, the unique tag identification number of the object identification number and the tag into the memory of the RFID tag 10 ( Tag ID (TID) is input (S102).

The tag identification number is assigned to a different number for each RFID tag 10, and only the reading is possible so that the number input during manufacture is not changed again.

Then, the tag identification number input is input to the object DB 51 to match the object identification number input to the server 50 (S103).

After the above procedure is completed is ready to supply the RFID tag 10 to the sun salt producer.

Next, the supplied RFID tag 10 is issued using the tag recognition means 30 (S104).

Issuance of the RFID tag 10 reads the supplied RFID tag 10 to the tag recognition means 30, and reads the read tag identification number, object identification number and traceability management number to the communication network 40 By transmitting to the server 50 through the storage.

The tag recognition means 30 reads the object identification number of the RFID tag 10, assigns a tag identification number, and transmits the tag identification number to the server 50 through the communication network 40.

The traceability number is assigned to inquire related information for each stage of production, distribution, and sale of the salt, and the salt that has been assigned the same trace number is the same kind of salt that is shipped at the same time.

The traceability number may be configured to include one or more producer number, year of manufacture, item code or product serial number.

For example, if the traceability control number is 12 digits consisting of a producer number (5 digits), a manufacturing year (2 digits), and a product serial number (5 digits), it can be written as 01530-0920150.

Subsequently, the server 50 creates the use DB 52 as the received object identification number, tag identification number, and history tracking management number, and then deletes the object identification number and tag identification number from the object DB 51. (S106).

In this way, if the object identification number and tag identification number are deleted from the object DB 51 and stored only in the use DB 52, an unauthorized third party reads the tag of the sun-dried salt packaging material (A) shipped to a new tag. Even if it tries to record and register, it cannot register because the object identification number and tag identification number do not exist in the object DB 51.

As such, by copying the object identification number and the tag identification number of the issued RFID tag 10 to the use DB 52, copying of the RFID tag 10 is possible.

In addition, it is also possible to store the password in the memory of the RFID tag 10, and to enable reading only the tag recognition means 30 having the encryption key.

The password can use the Access Password of the EPCglobal Class1 Gen2 tag.In this case, the 8-digit password consisting of hexadecimal numbers is recorded in the Reserved area of the tag's memory BankType. Prevent it in advance.

In this configuration, even if there is a tag recognition means 30 such as the RFID terminal 100, access information of the tag cannot be accessed unless an access password is input, thereby preventing the duplication of the RFID tag 10.

Issuance of the RFID tag 10 is completed in such a procedure, and the RFID tag 10 is attached to the natural salt packing material A and shipped.

Next, at the distribution stage, the distributor checks whether the salt is forged.

When the RFID tag 10 attached to the distributed natural salt is read by the tag recognition means 30, the tag recognition means 30 reads the object identification number and the tag identification number read by the RFID tag 10 from the communication network 40 Is transmitted to the server 50 through.

Next, the server 50 goes through a step of determining whether the received object identification number and tag identification number match the object identification number and tag identification number stored in the use DB 52.

The server 50 first searches for whether there is a matching number in the tag identification number using the DB 52, and if there is a matching number, checks whether the object identification number also matches.

If there is no matching tag identification number, the server 50 transmits to the tag recognition means 30 that the RFID tag 10 is forged.

In addition, even if there is a matching tag identification number, but not the corresponding object identification number, the server 50 transmits to the tag recognition means 30 that the RFID tag 10 is forged.

In addition, if there is a corresponding object identification number corresponding to the tag identification number, the server 50 transmits the information indicating that the normal tag to the tag recognition means 30, and the information stored in the relevant fields (producer information, shipping information) Etc.).

In addition, the consumer accesses the online site through the consumer terminal 200, and enters the transfer tracking control number printed on the display unit 16 of the RFID tag 10 in the online site for the origin information and distribution history of the sun salt. You can also check.

In addition, the intermediate seller may enter the information described in the RFID tag 10 into a point of sales (POS) system, so that consumers can check the origin information and distribution history information directly at the natural salt purchase site.

As described above, the present invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, but is not necessarily limited thereto, and modifications and variations may be made without departing from the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.

For example, the natural salt of the present embodiment is applicable to the distribution process of eco-friendly organic products and agricultural special products that are distributed in the form of small packet of the net form.
