DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view illustrating a content path providing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a method of manufacturing the content path providing apparatus of FIG. 1, the contents path providing apparatus 1 includes a first sheet 110, an NFC tag 200, a QR code 300, a first shielding layer 410, a second shielding layer 420, And a shielding shielding film 500. However, since the content path providing apparatus 1 of FIG. 1 is only one embodiment of the present invention, the present invention is not limited to FIG.

The content path providing apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention can search content when a user downloads content or reproduces it in a streaming manner through a mobile terminal such as a smart phone or a smart pad, A program, an application or a tool which can be reproduced in a streaming manner is installed, a content is searched again after the installation is completed, a payment is made to download the searched content using the downloaded tool, The program is downloaded and installed so that payment can be made according to the payment means held by the user, and then a content is searched again after the payment is completed, and the searched content is downloaded using the downloaded tool, To enable the NFC reader to be completed by just turning on the reader And a purpose.

To this end, when the NFC reader is operated in the mobile terminal, the content path providing apparatus 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention downloads the content download application from the mobile terminal that has read the NFC tag, So that the user can access the content download site through the activated content download application.

Such a content download application temporarily downloads the content in a streaming manner in real time and plays back streaming, or downloads the content itself (mp3 file or video file) in a file form and stores it in the mobile terminal. In the case of streaming playback, the complete content file need not be downloaded. In the present invention, the content download application downloads and plays the content in the streaming manner through the NFC tag, and downloads and stores the actual content file through the QR code.

At the same time as or before or after the reading of the NFC tag, the mobile terminal scans the QR code on the mobile terminal through the QR code scanner, scans the QR code, and if the authentication process proceeds on the mobile terminal, Download. At this time, the QR code scanner may be controlled to be automatically activated after the NFC tag is read.

Accordingly, when the user activates the NFC reader capable of reading the NFC tag by accessing the mobile terminal to the content path providing apparatus, and when the QR code scanner is operated, only the operation of locating the QR code in the screen of the scanner is performed, So that content can be easily downloaded from a mobile terminal without going through a series of processes.

The first sheet 110 may be formed to include an NFC tag 200. At this time, the first sheet 110 may be made of paper or synthetic resin. Since the first sheet 110 is not a material for shielding radio waves or electromagnetic waves, the NFC tag 200 can be formed to be positioned at either the top or the bottom of the first sheet 110, As shown in FIG.

On the other hand, a first shielding layer 410 for blocking electromagnetic waves is formed on one surface of the first sheet 110, for example, below the NFC tag 200 so that the NFC tag 200 can not be read from the outside. Since the NFC tag 200 includes data for activating the content download application, the first shielding layer 410 is formed so that the NFC reader can read the information of the NFC tag 200 from the first shielding layer 410 You can prevent it from being read.

A second shielding layer 420 is formed on the first sheet 110 to block electromagnetic waves from being read from the outside of the first sheet 110 by the NFC tag 200. Here, the second shielding layer 420 is provided with a read shield (not shown) in a region corresponding to a place where the NFC tag 200 or a QR code 300, which will be described later, is placed so that information contained in the NFC tag 200 can be read from the outside 425 are formed. The information stored in the NFC tag 200 can be read from the outside through the reading hole 425.

The QR code 300 may be printed or attached to the upper portion of the NFC tag 200 formed on the first sheet 120.

On the other hand, after the QR code 300 is printed or attached on the NFC tag 200, the shielding film 500 is formed on the QR code 300 again.

The shielding shielding layer 500 is formed to prevent the NFC tag 200 and the QR code 300 from being scanned from the outside. The shielding shield layer 500 is not the same size as the first sheet 120, 300, thereby preventing the QR code 300 from being read and the NFC tag being read through the read hole 425.

The shielding film 500 may be formed of RR (Rub Removable) ink which can easily be removed by the user, or may be formed as a shielding sticker .

The RR ink or shielding sticker is formed to contain the metal (iron, aluminum, copper, etc.) which is the conductor and prevents the NFC from being read from the outside. On the other hand, the shielding sticker may be implemented using a ferrite sheet.

The first and second shield layers 410 and 420 may also be made of a thin film sheet or a ferrite sheet containing a metal component (iron, aluminum, copper, etc.) As shown in FIG. Although not shown in the drawing, the first and second shield layers 410 and 420 may have an area larger than that of the first sheet 110 to improve the shielding performance, The first shield layer 410 and the second shield layer 420 may be entirely enclosed except for a part of the readout hole 425 of the first shield layer 420. It is a matter of course that the portion of the reading hole 425 is shielded by the shielding film 500 later.

The QR code 300 may provide an authentication process when printed on the second sheet 120 to download content in a content download application. Here, the QR code 300 may include information as to which content should be downloaded through which authentication. For example, suppose that the user A purchased the album of the artist B with the contents path providing apparatus 1. [ In this case, if the shielding film 500 formed of the RR ink on the QR code 300 is scratched off or the shielding film 500 in the form of a shielding sticker is removed, the QR code 300 appears and the QR code scanner can read it have.

To this end, the QR code 300 includes a path (connection address) of a server that stores content, a content identification number, and a content authentication code. The content authentication code means a password for downloading, and when the content authentication code is used only once, the information is discarded by the server, and the user can download the content only once. Accordingly, the mobile terminal can download the album of the B-number only once.

After the shielding layer 500 is removed, the NFC reader of the mobile terminal reads the NFC tag 200 through the read hole 425 of the second shielding layer 420 to activate the content download application. Accordingly, in the mobile terminal, the album of the B number can be reproduced in a streaming manner.

Here, it is preferable that the NFC tag 200 and the QR code 300 are located at the same position or corresponding area. Although the NFC tag 200 and the QR code 300 have the same size, they may be formed at the same position. However, if the sizes of the NFC tag 200 and the QR code 300 are different from each other,

That is, when the third shielding layer 500 on the QR code 300 is removed, the NFC tag 200 must be read through the NFC tag 200. Therefore, the NFC between the first shielding layer 410 and the second shielding layer 420 It is preferable that the tag 200 and the QR code 300 are located in the same or corresponding areas.

The sizes of the first shielding layer 410 and the second shielding layer 420 may be the same. If the NFC tag 200 can be read through the read hole 425 after the shielding film 500 on the QR code 300 is removed, the positions of the NFC tag 200 and the QR code 300 are And the NFC tag 200 can be read through the readout hole 425. In other words, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, but may be implemented and formed in any case where the shielding film 500 is removed and the NFC tag 200 can be read through the read hole 425.

2, a method of manufacturing a content path providing apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. (a) First, the NFC tag 200 is positioned, and (b) the first sheet 110 is formed to include the NFC tag 200. Alternatively, the NFC tag 200 may be attached to the upper surface or the lower surface of the first sheet 110. Then, (c) a first shielding layer 410 is formed under the first sheet 110, and then (d) a QR code 300 is printed or attached to the top of the NFC tag 200. Although not shown in the drawing, a second sheet (not shown) passing electromagnetic waves may be attached to an upper portion of the NFC tag 200, and the QR code 300 may be printed on the second sheet.

Then, (e) a second shielding layer 420 is formed on the first sheet 110. As described above, in order to read information contained in the NFC tag 200 from the outside, a read hole 425 is formed in a region of the second shielding layer 420 corresponding to the place where the NFC tag 200 is located. Since the first shielding layer 410 and the second shielding layer 420 are formed on the upper and lower portions of the NFC tag 200, information contained in the NFC tag 200 can be read externally only through the read hole 425.

Finally, a shielding film 500 is formed on the QR code 300 to cover the QR code 300 to prevent the QR code 300 from being scanned and the NFC tag 200 from being read. The shielding shielding film 500 is implemented by an RR ink or a shielding sticker method capable of shielding electromagnetic waves so that a lower QR code 300 is displayed when a user removes the RR ink or removes the shielding sticker.

In summary, when the content path providing apparatus 1 is manufactured, an NFC tag 200 for activating a content download application in the first sheet 110 is integrated and integrally formed, and the NFC tag 200, The QR code 300 is printed on the upper portion of the sheet and the shielding layers 410 and 420 are applied to the lower and upper portions of the first sheet 110 and finally the shielding film 500 is formed on the QR cord 300 . ≪ / RTI >

The terms top and bottom of the first sheet 110, the NFC tag 200, the QR code 300 and the shielding layers 410 and 420 refer not only to the case where they are in contact with the respective components, And all other elements are interposed and located. That is, the upper part and the lower part do not only mean the upper and lower parts in contact with the component but may also mean the upper and lower parts in a state of not contacting the component. That is, a sheet (not shown) made of paper or a synthetic resin that allows radio waves or electromagnetic waves to pass may be interposed between the respective components.

it is needless to say that the order of the steps (c) to (e) may be changed in the steps (a) to (f). The first and second shield layers 410 and 420 can be formed at the same time or the QR code 300 can be printed or attached after the first and second shield layers 410 and 420 are formed . (c) to (e) are not important in the order, so they can be changed in any order.

FIG. 3 is an embodiment of a circuit diagram of an NFC tag in the content path providing apparatus of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining a content downloading process of a mobile terminal driven by the content path providing apparatus of FIG.

Referring to FIG. 3, the NFC tag 200 can be read by a mobile terminal, and can transmit and receive signals by a loop antenna formed of an inductor in a mobile terminal. The antenna 210 of the NFC tag 200 may be configured as a loop antenna matched with the loop antenna of the mobile terminal and configured by an inductor. The antenna 210 is resonated at a frequency of 13.56 MHz, which is wirelessly transmitted from the loop antenna of the mobile terminal, and can receive power wirelessly.

The signal transmitting unit 220 transmits a response signal generated by the signal generating unit 250 to a signal receiving unit (not shown) of the mobile terminal, and may be composed of one transistor. The rectifier unit 240 includes a rectifier diode for removing the NFC signal applied to the antenna 210, a smoothing capacitor for canceling a waveform included in the power, and a capacitor for storing and charging power obtained by removing signal components And can convert an NFC signal applied to the AC from the NFC transmitter (not shown) of the mobile terminal to DC.

At this time, a response signal responsive to the DC converted NFC signal may be generated in the signal generating unit 250, and the signal generating unit 250 may be composed of, for example, 10 transistors. The generated response signal can be controlled by the determination of the NFC transmitter of the mobile terminal. In addition, the distance for data communication between the mobile terminal and the NFC tag 200 may be limited in order to prevent security problems and incorrect recognition of the NFC tag 200. It is also possible to block the hacking of the NFC tag 200 at a long distance through such communication distance limitation.

Referring to FIG. 4, it is assumed that (a) a user purchases a record A, which is a content path providing apparatus 1. At this time, the first shield layer 410, the second shield layer 420, and the shielding layer 500 are formed so that the QR code 300 and the NFC tag 300 are not recognized from the outside when the A record is purchased have. Therefore, the content download application can not be driven until the shielding film 500 is removed by disassembling the package after purchase, and the QR code 300 can not be read and the content can not be downloaded.

At this time, when the user peels off or peels off the shielding film 500 formed on the upper part of the QR code 300, the QR code 300 appears as shown in (b).

(c) After the shielding layer 500 is removed, the mobile terminal 500 can read the information of the NFC tag 200 located under the QR code 300 through the NFC reader, and at the same time, The QR code 200 may be scanned.

That is, since the shielding film 500 is removed as shown in (d), the QR code 300 can be scanned. At the same time, the NFC tag 200 can be read through the second shielding layer 420 because the read shield 425 is formed in the second shielding layer 420, which is a path through which the NFC tag 200 can be read.

(E) the mobile terminal 500 activates a content download application that can down stream and play the content by the NFC tag 200, and (f) the mobile terminal 500 transmits the QR code ( (G) the content is downloaded to the mobile terminal 500 due to the authentication code provided by the QR code 300 and data based on the authentication process.

The mobile terminal 500 can execute the authentication process of the scanned QR code 300 (S5400), and can execute the download for the content whose authentication process has been completed (S5500).

Here, the NFC tag 200 may include information for activating a content download application for downloading the content in a streaming manner, and for connecting to the content download site.

In addition, the QR code 300 may include a route and an authentication code for actually downloading the content. As described above, in order to prevent a person other than the purchaser from downloading, the authentication code is preferably discarded in the server once it is used.

Meanwhile, the NFC tag 200 may control to activate a scanner for scanning the QR code 300 after the NFC tag 200 is read.

Here, the order between the above-described steps S5100 to S5500 is merely an example, but is not limited thereto. That is, the order between the above-described steps S5100 to S5500 may be mutually varied, and some of the steps may be executed or deleted at the same time.
