Description

Indicator using smartphone and NFC tag

The present invention relates to a label using a smartphone and NFC tag, more specifically, to combine the signs and the buried pin to cover the various cover objects to form a marker and insert the NFC tag and the core to the sign at the operator's work site The present invention relates to the provision of an improved indicator for facilitating the management of the target of a target of a target of a target of a label and further expanding the scope of use of the marker by configuring the smart phone to transmit and receive information from the target of a target of a target of a label.

In general, the marker is installed on the ground surface so that information about various pipelines, such as gas, water, sewage, and electrical pipelines, which are buried in the ground can be easily grasped from the ground. It is used as an important indicator in job design.

Conventional markers, such as the configuration of the buried pipe furnace indicator of the conventionally known Utility Model No. 20-0314493, the cap having a medium for the pipeline, and the main body having a receiving unit coupled to the cap embedded in the road, and the information of the buried pipe The display panel provided is provided in the accommodating part.

The display panel displays basic information about the buried pipeline, such as the flow direction of the medium, the pressure, the depth of the pipeline, the width of the pipeline protection, the diameter of the pipeline, and the operator visually checks the information displayed on the display panel to refer to the work.

However, since the display panel of the prior art as described above has a limitation in the range of information that can be displayed on the surface, the operator cannot grasp enough information simply by checking the indicator, and thus, precise measurement and work design during field work. Is virtually impossible.

As a result, the worker has to find out the management department of the indicator or the media and ask for detailed information about the media, and if you do excavation work without knowing the exact information, water and sewage pipe or gas pipe There were several problems, such as causing serious accidents such as rupture.

Recognizing the above problems, in recent years, an improved indicator has been developed and provided in the form of embedding various electronic tags in the marker and storing information in the buried pipe. As a representative example, the specific configuration of the pipe marker of the Utility Model Registration No. 20-0469906 is as follows.

A print layer having a printed layer on which information about the buried pipe is printed, a display unit having an adhesive layer formed on a bottom surface of the print layer, a head unit having a receiving groove accommodated by the display layer and bonded by the adhesive layer, and coupled to the head unit It is embedded in the ground and includes a buried pin which is provided to be fixed,

The accommodating groove is configured to further include an auxiliary accommodating groove to accommodate the information embedded chip in which the information about the embedded pipe is made into a DB.

The pipe line indicator to which the prior art is applied as described above takes the form of accommodating the display portion in the accommodating groove of the head and accommodating the information embedded chip storing the information in the buried pipe in the auxiliary accommodating groove.

Therefore, the operator reads the information embedded chip to a separate terminal to check the information in the buried pipe to design and proceed with the work.

However, since the pipe marker is applied to the conventional technology, the buried pipeline information is stored in a separate information embedded chip for each of the corresponding markers. There is a problem that the management station or the operator can not update in real time.

In other words, in order to update the information in the buried pipe, the management office or the worker must perform the update work for each individual embedded chip. As a result, there is a problem that it is practically impossible to collectively manage information through buried pipes stored in individual information embedded chips.

Therefore, when a worker reads the information stored in the information embedded chip that is not updated with the latest information at the time of the field work, the work is performed based on the wrong information, which may cause various problems such as insolvent construction or accidents.

In addition, the type of information, display method, and capacity that can be stored with the above-described information embedded chip alone are limited, and as described above, the information is also cumbersome, and thus, the scope of use of the marker is different from that of the existing buried pipe. There is a limit that is difficult to enlarge.

On the other hand, most markers are made of impact-resistant materials to minimize breakage since they are exposed on the road, but they are continuously exposed to external stimuli even after the assembly and assembly of each part or installation on the ground. However, the pipeline marker of the prior art is not provided with any means for protecting the information embedded chip contained therein, so the risk of damage cannot be excluded.
