Method for finding service

The present invention relates to a method of goods finding service.

In particular, the present invention relates to a method of finding goods for finding lost goods placed on public transportation (eg, trains, buses, taxis, etc.) to owners.

In addition, the present invention relates to a method of goods finding service for making it easy to find the goods in the airport conveyor.

1 is a diagram illustrating a network configuration of a conventional lost and found management system, and FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a conventional lost and found management service procedure.

As shown in FIG. 1, a user may use an RFID tag 20 having tag information registered thereon by attaching it to an item to be purchased and used in the tag selling apparatus 10. In addition, the user stores the tag information in his mobile communication terminal (30). Here, the tag information storage is a method of directly inputting the identification number described in the RFID tag 20 to the terminal 30, a method of photographing and storing a barcode recorded on the RFID tag 20 by the user terminal 30, or If the terminal 30 has an RFID reader function, the terminal 30 may be configured to wirelessly recognize and store tag information.

When the user loses the article, the user sends the tag information to the lost and found management server 40 using the user terminal 30. The lost and found management server 40 retrieves the tag information received from the user terminal 30 in the database in which the property information of the lost and found is stored, and transmits the lost and found state information to the user terminal 30. This service method provides the convenience that the user does not have to track the goods and check the status over the telephone, but there is a problem that does not provide a countermeasure service when someone takes the goods. In addition, it will be more convenient if there is a service that checks the status and informs the user before the goods arrive at the lost and found operation center.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 2, a user purchases an RFID tag 20 at a subway ticket office and attaches it to his article. In addition, the tag information is stored in its own terminal. Accordingly, when the user loses the article, the user sends the tag information to the lost and found management server using the user terminal. On the other hand, the lost and found center collects the lost and attached to the RFID tag 20, and stores the tag information and the article image in the database 60 using the RFID reader 50 capable of capturing the image. In addition, the lost and found center compares the tag information received from the user terminal with the tag information stored in the database 60 and delivers the lost and found to the user. However, these services have a long delay before the actual lost items are registered at the center, and the goods may disappear in the middle.

As mentioned above, according to the existing forms and technologies of the Lost & Found Management Center, users should report the lost items when they are lost, remember the information about the lost place, time, etc. If you want to know the condition of the goods as soon as possible, you have to wait for the goods to be processed after they are registered with the Lost and Found Center. In addition, there is no countermeasure (theft countermeasure) to find the goods if the goods leave the subway after reporting the loss of the user.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, the object of the present invention is to provide a method for finding goods lost goods can be quickly delivered to the owner by the station staff when the loss report is received by the object to provide do.

In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for finding goods that can be safely delivered to the owner by preventing the lost goods pass through the ticket gate even if the station attendant has already been stolen before the lost.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail with respect to the article finding service method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

3 to 5 are network diagrams of an article finding service system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

3 to 5, the article finding service system according to the present invention is divided into an RFID layer, a Bluetooth layer and a server layer, and referred to as an article finding management server (hereinafter, simply referred to as a 'management server'); 100), the database 200, the station attendant terminal 300, the user terminal 400, the access point (Access Point; 500), the RFID reader 700 of the lost and found center and RFID reader 700 of the ticket gate can be made have. Here, the user terminal 400 is a hand-held based mobile communication terminal capable of mobile communication. In addition, the station employee terminal 300 may be a mobile communication terminal or a personal computer (PC) accessible to the Internet.

Specifically, the user purchases the RFID tag 20 of the RFID layer registered in the management server 100 of the lost and found center and attaches it to the article. In addition, the user stores the tag information to the user terminal 400 (hereinafter also referred to as 'cell phone or mobile phone'). In this case, the cellular phone 400 stores tag information and basic information (user name and phone number).

When the user enters the train, the Bluetooth layer 500 of the Bluetooth layer automatically sends information such as train number, station information, boarding / disengagement time to the mobile phone 400 equipped with a Bluetooth function. Here, the Bluetooth mobile phone 400 becomes a master, and the Bluetooth AP 500 serves as a slave.

The management server 100 of the server layer stores the article information received from the mobile phone 400 in the DB 200 when the user reports the loss of the article. At this time, when lost and found is registered in the lost and found center RFID reader 700 of the ticket gate inspects the article through the RFID tag 20 attached to the article, and if the result of the inspection is a stolen goods, block the ticket gate and sound an alarm. In addition, the RFID reader 600 of the lost and found center stores the information of the article received by the lost and found in the database 200. Then, the management server 100 compares the information sent by the user and the information sent by the RFID reader 500 and informs the user with the article image.

In addition, the management server 100 transmits the information to the station attendant terminal 300 of the train on which the lost and found. At this time, the station attendant notifies the lost and found center when the presence or absence of the lost and the center will inform the reporter of the situation using a text message service (SMS).

6 is a flowchart illustrating a method for goods finding service according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

First, the user terminal 400, for example, by using a text message service or a wireless Internet service to send the lost goods report data to the management server 100 to report the loss (step S101). Here, the lost property report data may include article tag information, boarding train information (eg, train number), user name, phone number, boarding station information and boarding time.

Then, the management server 100 immediately transmits the lost object report data to the station employee terminal 300, so that the station employee can find the lost item before theft (step S103).

To give a specific example of step S103, the management server 100 checks the train number in the lost goods report data, retrieves the contact number of the engineer corresponding to the train number confirmed in the train operation DB (not shown), and then the corresponding engineer Will send a text message to your phone. Here, the train operating DB includes the current station, train number, operating section (departure station / arrival station), operating time (departure time / arrival time), engineer's name, engineer's position and engineer's contact number (cell phone number) with respect to the train in operation. The information is stored.

As another example, the management server 100 checks the train number in the lost property report data, and transmits the checked train number to the train control server (not shown) and inquires whether the corresponding train is running, and is operating from the train control server. When a reply is received, the contact person (mobile phone number) of the station attendant working at the station to be passed is inquired, and when the station attendant contact is received from the train control server, a text message is transmitted to the corresponding station attendant's mobile phone. Then, the station attendant will contact the owner of the lost item to check what the lost item is, and then enter the train when the train stops to acquire the lost item.

In addition, the management server 100 stores the lost object report data received from the user terminal 400 in the lost object database 200 (step S105).

On the other hand, lost and found by the station attendant is received by the lost and found center (step S107). That is, the RFID reader 600 of the lost and found center receives the lost and found by recognizing the tag information of the RFID tag 20 and obtaining an image of the article. Then, the RFID reader 600 notifies the lost object receipt by transmitting the lost object acceptance data including the article tag information and the article image information to the management server 100 (step S109).

Next, the management server 100 searches whether the lost object report data corresponding to the lost object reception data received from the RFID reader 600 is present in the lost object database 200 (step S111).

As a result of the search, when the lost object report data corresponding to the lost object reception data received from the RFID reader 600 is in the lost object database 200, the user terminal 400 notifies that the lost object is received, that is, the lost object is received in the lost object center ( Step S113).

7 is a flowchart illustrating a method for goods finding service according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

First, the user terminal 400 makes a loss report by transmitting lost property report data to the management server 100 (step S201).

Then, the management server 100 by sending the lost goods report data directly to the station attendant terminal 300 so that the station attendant can find the lost items before being stolen (step S203), the lost article report data received from the user terminal 400 lost It stores in the database 200 (step S205).

On the other hand, when the station attendant finds the lost object, the station attendant terminal 300 transmits the lost object finding signal (including the storage place information) to the management server 100 according to the operation of the station attendant (step S207).

Then, the management server 100 transmits a text message indicating that the article is found to the user terminal 400 (step S209).

8 is a flowchart illustrating a method for goods finding service according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

First, the user terminal 400 makes a loss report by transmitting lost property report data to the management server 100 (step S301).

Then, the management server 100 stores the lost and found report data received from the user terminal 400 in the lost and found database 200 so that the RFID reader 700 of the ticket gate is accessible through the network (step S303).

On the other hand, the RFID reader 700 provided in the ticket gate reads the RFID tag attached to the article approaching toward the ticket gate and recognizes the tag information (step S305). Then, the lost and found database 200 is accessed to confirm whether the recognized tag information is reported as lost (step S307).

As a result of accessing the lost and found database 200, if the recognized tag information is found to be lost (step S309), the ticket gate control module (not shown) is controlled to prevent the theft from passing through the ticket gate (step S311), and the alarm sound (Step S313). Accordingly, the station attendant working at the station will run to hear the alarm and inspect the theft to find the lost property.

Next, the RFID reader 700 transmits the recognized tag information and the ticket gate position (station information) to the management server 100 to report the lost or stolen property (step S315).

Then, the management server 100 transmits the position information of the ticket gate to the station attendant terminal 300 so that the station attendant can find the lost item (step S317). For example, when the management server 100 receives a lost or stolen report, the management server 100 searches for a contact of a station attendant working at a station where a ticket gate is located in a station attendant DB (not shown), and then transmits a text message to a cell phone of the station attendant. As a result, the station staff will run to the ticket gates to find the lost property.

In addition, the management server 100 notifies the user terminal 400 of the lost item location and the station attendant (step S319).

9 and 10 are diagrams illustrating a network of an article finding service system according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the goods-finding service system according to the present invention is another example that can be applied in addition to finding lost items, such as when the user registers and finds individual items when entering / exiting at the airport, continue to be carried out at the airport conveyor It can compensate for the shortcomings of waiting.

That is, the user receives the RFID tag 20 registered with the airline at the same time as the ticket issuance at the airport. The user then stores the tag information in the user terminal 400 and attaches the RFID tag 20 to the article. The user then arrives at the destination and is in the desired waiting room without waiting for the item in front of the conveyor. Meanwhile, the RFID reader 800 installed in the airport conveyor recognizes the RFID tag 20 attached to the user's article. When the tag information recognized by the RFID reader 800 is registered in the database 200 of the cargo management center, the status information of the user's goods is transmitted to the user's Bluetooth mobile phone 400 through the Bluetooth AP 900 installed in the waiting room. do. In addition, if there is no contact after a certain time, the user is reported through the information stored in the user terminal 400, the server 100 of the cargo management center, the information recognized by the RFID reader 800 and the user reported The information is compared to inform the user of the arrival and status of the goods.

11 and 12 are flowcharts for explaining a method for goods finding service according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention.

First, the RFID reader 800 of the conveyor recognizes the tag information from the RFID tag 20 and photographs the article, and then transmits the article data including the tag information and the article image to the management server 100 (step S401). , S403, S405).

Then, the management server 100 stores the article data received from the RFID reader 800 installed in the conveyor in the database 200 (step S407).

Next, the management server 100 transmits the article data to the user terminal 400 through the access point 900 to inform the user that the article of the user has arrived at the conveyor (steps S409 and S411).

On the other hand, if there is no contact even after a certain time, the user terminal 400 transmits the goods tag information to the management server 100 according to the user's operation and requests the guidance of the goods arrival (step S413).

Then, the management server 100 searches whether the article data corresponding to the article tag information received from the user terminal 400 is in the database 200 (step S415), and tells the user terminal 400 based on the search result. The arrival of the article is guided (step S417).
