The present invention relates to a shredder and a shredding method, and more particularly, to an online shredding system and an online shredding method in which rapid and reliable inventory management and waste inspection can be performed.

In modern society, various objects exist that have their own internal information such as credit card, electronic resident's card, driver's license, passport, check, and securities. For example, a credit card stores the user's personal information, card usage history, etc. in the same memory as the I / C chip. The driver's license and passport contain photos and addresses, and checks and securities have their own Unique identification numbers are stored for identification by other electronic equipment. Objects containing such internal information have to be destroyed for reasons such as loss reports, deadlines, manufacturing defects, and the like. In this case, crushing the crushed object itself may be a simple task. However, in the case of a large number of damaged objects, such as in modern society, the damaged objects are closely related to the user's credit and assets, so that it is necessary to accurately check whether the damaged objects were genuinely damaged and to manage the quantity and the reason for fracture. Is very important.

On the other hand, many card manufacturers and passport issuing agencies, such as a large number of pieces of the damaged object once collected in a certain place. And since these damaged objects are later gathered and recorded all at once, they are quite inefficient in terms of manpower and cost. Moreover, there was no way to confirm whether the shredded object was truly a shredded object. Therefore, reliability cannot be maintained even with the recorded shredding information.

Due to these existing problems, there is a need for a technique capable of obtaining reliable shredding information without going through a separate cleaning and recording procedure.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problem, and an object of the present invention is to merge the process of recording the information of the shredding object with the shredding process, thereby improving the efficiency of shredding and improving the reliability of the stored shredding information.

Hereinafter, an online crushing system and an online crushing method according to a preferred embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the subject matter of the present invention.

In addition, the size of each component in the drawings may be exaggerated for the sake of explanation and does not mean a size actually applied.

1 is a schematic structural diagram of an online shredding system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, an online shredding system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a checker 100, a shredder 200, and a storage 300. Specifically, the crusher 200 crushes part and all of the crushing object. In addition, the checker 100 is connected to the shredder 200, reads the internal information of the shredding object, and acquires the external image before and after the shredding object is partially shredded. In addition, the storage unit 300 is connected to the checker, and stores the internal information and the obtained external image. The storage unit 300 may be in the form of a server that can be connected to the checker by wire or wirelessly. In addition, the transmission to the server by wire or wireless may be designed using various wired and wireless transmission schemes known as needed.

When the checker 100 enters a credit card into the checker, for example, the checker 100 checks the M / S (magnetic stripe) portion, the R / F ID (Radio Frequency IDentification) portion, and the IC of the credit card to be destroyed. (Integrated Circuit) It includes an internal information reader (110) for reading a portion containing internal information of a credit card, such as a chip portion. In addition, checker 100 includes a scanner 120 that scans to obtain an external image, ie appearance, of a credit card. The scanner 120 scans the external image before and after the shredder 200 shreds a part of the shredding object. In particular, when the scanner 120 scans an image before and after partly shredding the shredded object, the scanner 120 includes a scan time in the scanned image. Here, the scanner is taken as an example for acquiring an external image, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and various known imaging apparatuses such as a camera and a camcorder may be used together or alone as needed.

 The storage unit 300 stores the internal information read by the internal information reader 110 and the external image scanned by the scanner 120 together with the scan time.

The crusher 200 may crush some or all of the crushed object. In this case, the crusher 200 may damage the part in which the internal information of the crushed object is displayed so that the crushed object may not function. It means variation. For example, a punch may be used to form a hole in the magnetic stripe portion on the back of the credit card. In addition, total shredding means damage to the entire card exterior. For example, a credit card may be used to damage the entire credit card. More specific embodiments of such an online crushing system are described below.

2 is a schematic structural diagram of an online shredding system according to another preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, the internal information reader 110 of the checker 100 includes an input unit 111, an M / S reader 112, an R / F reader 113, and an I / C reader 114. For example, when the object to be crushed is a credit card, the credit card is input to the input unit 111. Internal information stored in the M / S portion of the input credit card is read by the M / S reader 112 and stored in the storage unit. In addition, internal information stored in the R / F ID portion and the I / C chip portion of the credit card are read by the R / F reader 113 and the I / C reader 114, respectively, and stored in the storage portion. I / C may connect to the network using PERSAM (PERSAM; key storage device used for card authentication and key value loading when issuing a card). Here, the reading of the internal information of the M / S, R / F ID, and I / C portion is not limited in order, and any one thereof may be used as necessary. Further, the internal information reader of the present invention is not limited to the M / S reader 112, the R / F reader 113, and the I / C reader 114, and reads the internal information suitable for the change of the shredding object. Various known reading apparatuses can be applied to the checker of the present invention. For example, when a barcode is attached to the object to be shredded, the internal information reader may use a barcode reader that transmits and receives a low power laser to read the barcode.

Meanwhile, as described above, the scanner 120 scans the external image before and after the credit card is partially shredded and stores the scanned external image in the storage unit 300. In particular, the scanned time is also preferably stored in the storage unit. This is because by comparing the external image before and after some shredding, it can be confirmed that the shredded object was a true shredding object that was originally intended to break. In particular, since the scanned time is stored together, the shorter the distance before and after some shredding can give more credibility to the fact that the shredded object was a true shredding object that was originally to be broken.

In addition, the shredder 200 includes some shredder 210 that can partially shred the shredding object and a whole shredder 220 that can shred all the shredding objects. Some shredders 210 may use punches and the entire shredder may use shredder 220.

The on-line shredding system of the present invention may also include an indicator and input 400 coupled to the checker. The display and input unit 400 displays internal information of the shredding object read by the checker 100 on the display screen. The user may input additional information about the crush object to store in the storage unit 300 based on the internal information of the crush object displayed on the display screen. This additional information may be, for example, failure analysis of the crushed object, or information rewritten or initialized internal information of the crushed object. In this way, failure analysis, rewriting, and initialization are stored in the storage unit 300. In this case, when rewriting or initializing the internal information of the crushed object, the internal recording already stored in the storage unit 300 is replaced with the rewritten and initialized information. The display and input unit 400 may integrate display and input functions into a single device using a touch screen, but the structure is not limited thereto. The display and input device 400 may be integrated or separated using various known display and input devices. It may be configured as.

In addition, the user may determine whether to shred the display and the input device. For example, when looking at the display and the internal information displayed on the input unit 400 and finds a reason not to be shredded, a stop command may be input to control the shredder not to operate. The operation flow of the online crushing system will be described below in order.

3 shows a flowchart of an online shredding method according to one preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, in the on-line shredding method according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a shredding object is first inserted into a checker (S1). The objects to be shredded may be credit cards, electronic resident's cards, driver's licenses, passports, checks, and securities that require disposal. If the object to be crushed is a passport, it is preferable to open the page on which data is recorded and insert it. Thereafter, the internal information reader of the checker reads the internal information of the card and stores it in the storage unit (S2). Detailed description of the internal information reader is as described in FIGS. 1 and 2. When the object to be crushed is a credit card, M / S information, R / F information, contact I / C information, card material code, etc. are read and stored in the storage unit. In addition, in the case of passports, checks, and securities, internal information stored in the storage unit may be used to determine whether the passport or check has been forged. Next, the scanner 120 of the checker 100 scans an external image of the crushed object and stores it in the storage unit 300 (S3). In this case, it is preferable to store the scan time together with the scanned image in the storage 300. The scanned damaged object is partially crushed by the crusher 200 (S4). In this case, the crusher 200 may form a hole in the object to be crushed using a punch. Thereafter, the external image of the partially crushed crushed object is scanned and stored in the storage 300 (S5). In this case, it is preferable to store the scan time together with the scanned image in the storage 300. Finally, as described above, the rescanned object to be crushed is totally crushed (S6). As a result, the user does not need to separately separate the shredding operation and the information storing operation of the shredded shredding object, and can search the information of the shredded object from the storage 300 at any time. In addition, the information of the crushed object may be displayed with the scan time of the external image to ensure its reliability. Another embodiment of this online shredding method is described below.

4 is a flowchart of an online shredding method according to another preferred embodiment of the present invention. 4, the online shredding method according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention first goes through a user authentication step (S1). Specifically, the user who can break the shredding object should be limited. For example, if a credit card is destroyed, only authorized users of the credit card company should do so. In addition, authentication of the user is required to know who the crusher is later. The user may be assigned a unique ID card, and authentication may proceed by inserting the ID card into the checker. Thereafter, the shredding object is inserted (S2). In this case, the user may proceed with the following steps by inputting the "start" command through the display and input unit 400 described above.

Thereafter, the internal information reader 110 reads the internal information of the crushed object and stores it in the storage 300 (S3), and the scanner 120 scans and stores the external image of the crushed object (S4). Respectively correspond to steps S2 and S3 described with reference to FIG. 3.

In particular, the present embodiment further includes the step (S5) of displaying the internal information and inputting additional information before the crushing object is partially shredded. In this step, by using the display and input unit 400 described in FIG. Enter additional information and store it in the storage. In addition, when a shredding stop command is input when additional information is input, no further shredding process is performed and the entire shredding process may be terminated at step S5. On the other hand, when the shredding stop command is not input, the shredding object is partially shredded in the shredder 200 (S6). Subsequently, the external image of the partially crushed crushed object is rescanned and stored in the storage unit 300 (S7), and the crushed object (S8) is crushed in steps S5 and S6 described with reference to FIG. Corresponds. As a result, the user can simultaneously perform shredding, information storage, and management, and can impart reliability to the stored information. In addition, more detailed information of the crushed object may be obtained by inputting additional information into the stored information, and the crushing process may be controlled by inputting an appropriate command to the display and input unit.

In the detailed description of the present invention as described above, specific embodiments have been described. However, various modifications are possible within the scope of the present invention. The technical spirit of the present invention should not be limited to the above-described embodiments of the present invention, but should be determined by the claims and equivalents thereof.
