Definitions
- An Identification Device The present invention relates to an identification device.
- a wireless communication device such as a radio frequency identification (RFID) transponder or other identification device
- RFID radio frequency identification
- a liquid container such as a bottle or keg may include an identification device indicative of the liquid contained inside.
- the central control system can also send information to its interrogation readers to send to the transponders for response and/or to be stored in the transponder's memory.
- the identification system also allows for statistical analysis of the materials to maintain an accurate inventory, production flow rates, and other production standards. Additionally, the identification devices may include specific information about the materials housed within the containers including date of manufacture, place of manufacture, type of product within the container, the temperature of the container and ambient air, the temperature of the contents of the container, the pressure of the container, etc.
- One example is a beer keg that has a substantially cylindrical shape with smooth, uniform outer walls. There are no extensions or areas for effectively attaching the identification device. Additionally, these containers may be heavy and cumbersome to handle. During the filling process and distribution, the containers may bang against other containers, storage racks, conveyor equipment, etc. An identification device attached to the container may easily be damaged or destroyed during this process.
- the identification devices should be able to be quickly mounted to the containers. Each container should be identified with a separate identification device. The labor cost would be excessive and outweigh the benefits of the identification system if each device was timely to mount to the containers. Therefore, it is important that the identification devices can be quickly attached to each of the individual devices. Inherent with the quick attachment, the devices should be mounted in a straightforward manner that is not over difficult such that it requires specialised equipment, or highly trained technicians during the attachment process. In addition to be quickly attached, the identification tags should also securely attach to the containers. Secure attachment should prevent the tags from inadvertently falling off the containers even during handling of the containers when they may be dropped, bounced around, and otherwise roughly handled.
- identification tags be attached in an inconspicuous manner. For reusable containers that are sent to the consumers and then returned to be refilled and redistributed, an inconspicuous placement will help to ensure that the consumers do not tamper with or otherwise destroy the identification tag.
- an identification device for mounting adjacent a handle opening of a container, said device comprising: a body portion having an aperture sized to align with said handle opening; and wireless communication means attached to said body portion.
- the invention further provides an identification system comprising: a container having a handle opening; and an identification device according to the present invention mounted adjacent said handle opening.
- the invention further provides a method of mounting an identification device according to the present invention adjacent a handle opening of a container, said method comprising aligning said aperture of said body portion with said handle opening, and attaching said body portion to said container.
- the invention further provides a method of monitoring a container comprising: mounting an identification device according to the present invention adjacent a handle opening of the container by aligning said aperture of said body portion with said handle opening, and attaching said body portion to the container; moving the container through at least one interrogation point containing an interrogation reader; and establishing communication between the identification device and the interrogation reader to monitor the container.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of an identification device according to the present invention.
- Figure 2 is a schematic illustration of communication between an identification device and an interrogation reader
- Figure 3 is a schematic illustration of a tracking and information system for use with an identification device
- Figure 4 is a perspective view of the identification device of Figure 1 attached to
- FIGS 5A and 5B are side views of first and second steps respectively of mounting the identification device of Figure 1 to the container.
- an identification device or handle tag 10 comprises: a body portion 14 having an opening 13 to align with a handle opening 34 of a container 30; and a wireless communication device 20 for identifying the container 30.
- FIG 2 illustrates one particular type of wireless communication device 20 called a radio frequency transponder.
- the transponder 20 is usually made out of some type of plastic or other material having within it control system 102, wireless communication electronics 104, antenna 106, and memory 108.
- the antenna 106 may be either external or incorporated internal to the transponder 20.
- the transponder antenna 22 is external, and extends around opening 13. Both antenna 22 and the remainder 24 of the transponder (i.e. identification chip 24 comprising control system 102, wireless communication electronics 104, and memory 108) are disposed within body portion 14.
- the control system 102 is an integrated circuit or other type of microprocessor or micro-controller electronics that controls the substantive operations of the transponder 20.
- the control system 102 is connected to the wireless communication electronics 104 to communicate and receive transmissions.
- the control system 102 is also connected to memory 108 for storing information and retrieving information.
- Figure 2 also depicts how communication is achieved with the transponder 20.
- An interrogation reader 120 contains interrogation communication electronics 122 and an interrogation antenna 124.
- the interrogation reader 120 communicates to the transponder 20 by emitting an electronic signal or command modulated in a frequency 126 through the interrogation antenna 124.
- the interrogation antenna 124 may be any type of antenna that can radiate the modulated signal 126 through a field 128 so that a compatible device such as a transponder 20 can receive such signal 126 through its own antenna 106.
- the field 128 could be any of a variety of different types used in electronic communications including electro-magnetic, magnetic, or electric.
- the signal 126 is a message containing information and/or specific instructions for the transponder 20.
- the wireless communication electronics 104 When the transponder antenna 106 is in the presence of the field 128 emitted by the interrogation reader antenna 124, the wireless communication electronics 104 are energized thereby energizing the transponder 20. The transponder 20 remains energized so long as its antenna 106 is in the field 128 of the interrogation reader 120.
- the wireless communication electronics 104 demodulate the signal 126 and send the message containing information and/or specific instructions to the control system 102 for appropriate actions. For example, the request in the message may be for the transponder 20 to send back information about the materials housed within the container 30 including date of manufacture, place of manufacture, and type of product within the container.
- the message may also be instructions to send back information regarding the temperature of the container, its ambient air, the temperature of the contents of the container, the pressure of the container, etc.
- the transponder 20 sends back information to the interrogation reader 120 by altering the contents of the signal 126.
- the transponder 20 may have a transmitter so that it can send information to the interrogation reader without having to use the signal 126 as the means for communication.
- the transponder 20 may contain a battery to power the transmitter, or an energy storage unit that is charged by the energy when the transponder is in the field 128 of the signal 126.
- Figure 3 illustrates a tracking system in which containers 30 containing transponders 20 can be tracked through an environment such as factory or distribution facility.
- the transponder 20 connected to container 30 could pass a first interrogation point 150 that includes an interrogation reader 120.
- a message containing information and/or a specific request for information may be transmitted by the interrogation reader 120 and received by the transponder 20.
- a central control system 130 maintains the information from the interrogation readers 120 and monitors the movement of the containers 30 through the facility. The information received by each of the interrogation readers 120 may be forwarded to the central control system 130 either through direct wire or LAN connection. The central control system 130 could also send information to the interrogation reader 120 to be transmitted to the transponder 20 for identification purposes. The central control system 130 tracks the expected location of the containers 30 and may be alerted if it expects to receive information about a particular container and does not.
- the tag includes a body portion 14 having an opening 13 that aligns with an opening 34 in the container.
- the opening 13 is the same size, or slightly smaller than the container opening to cover the container edges which may be sharp and cut the user when grasped.
- a neck (not shown) may extend outward from the edges of the opening 13 to seat against the container opening 34 to further protect the user when handling the container.
- a first insert 16 extends from the body portion 14 for attaching the tag 10 to the container 30.
- the first insert 16 may include fingers 17a, 17b that are spaced apart a distance and compressed together when mounted on the container to hold the tag 10 in position.
- Various other configurations for the first insert 16 are also contemplated including a single finger, and more than two separate fingers.
- a second insert 18 extends from the body portion 14 for further mounting the tag 10. The second insert 18 is positioned on an opposing side of the body portion 14 to the first insert 16.
- the inserts 16, 18 work in combination to maintain the tag 10 on the container 30.
- the second insert 18 may have a variety of shapes and sizes depending upon the dimensions of the container 30.
- Another embodiment of the tag 10 features only a body portion 14 with an opening 13.
- the body portion 14 is attached to the container via an adhesive or mechanical fastener such as a screw or bolt, and therefore may not include inserts.
- the container 30 may have a variety of shapes and sizes.
- Figure 4 illustrates one embodiment of a container 30 having a main body 32 for holding materials.
- a rim 38 extends outward from a top surface 36 and includes handles 34 for grasping and carrying the container. As illustrated in Figures 5A-5B, the edges of the opening 34 may flare inward and may be sharp depending upon the type of rim material.
- the rim 38 may further include a lip 39 extending around the upper edge opposite the top surface 36.
- the container is a keg for holding beer.
- various other types of containers 30 may be applicable and are to be included within the scope of the present invention.
- Figure 5 A illustrates the first step of attaching one embodiment of the handle tag 10 to the container 30.
- the tag 10 is positioned adjacent to the container handle 34 with the first insert 16 above the handle 34 and the second insert 18 below the handle 34.
- Figure 5B illustrates the tag 10 mounted to the container 30. Fingers 17a and 17b are forced together and held in compression between the lip 39 and opening 34.
- the second insert 18 is positioned between the bottom of the handle and the top surface 36 to further maintain the tag 12 in attachment with the container 30.
- a second handle (not shown) may be attached to the other container handle 34. This second handle does not contain a wireless communication device, but rather gives the appearance that both handles are placed on the container to merely prevent injury to the user.
