Embodiment 1

[0038] Such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the raw material stocker device used in food printers according to the present invention includes a raw material stocker main body 1 , an information storage medium 2 , and an identification device mechanical main body 6 .

[0039] The main body 1 of the raw material storage device is a hollow cavity made of food-grade PP material, and the edible pigment used for food printers is stored in the cavity. Soak it.

[0040] A flexible circuit board 5 is mounted on the main body 1 of the raw material stocker, and an information storage medium EEPROM, a first metal contact 3 and a print head 4 are arranged on the flexible circuit board. In other embodiments, the print head 4 and the stocker main body 1 may be separate structures, and possibly multiple stocker main bodies 1 correspond to one print head 4 .

[0041] The relevant information about the main body of the stocker 1 is stored on the EEPROM, including the unique code of the main body of ...

Embodiment 2

[0047] In the scenario where the printing frequency is high and stockers are exchanged frequently, RFID tags are used as the information storage medium 2 to avoid frequent insertion loss and affect its stability.

[0048] The relevant information about the main body of the stocker is stored on the RFID tag, including the unique code of the main body of the stocker, the model code of the stored food coloring, the date of production, the date of validity, the remaining amount and other information, which is filled by the manufacturer in this embodiment The remaining amount of the ink cartridge should be 500 times, and each printing will consume the remaining amount once.

[0049] The RFID card reader also needs to be installed on the mechanical main body of the identification device. When the main body of the stocker and the mechanical main body of the identification device are installed together, the RFID card reader corresponds to the RFID position of the radio frequency identi...

Embodiment 3

[0052] Such as Figure 5 As shown, a raw material tracking system based on the above-mentioned raw material storage device includes a cloud server 13, a communication unit 14, a controller 15 and a plurality of raw material storage devices 16;

[0053] Described raw material storage device 16 is as described in embodiment two, is Figure 4 The structure shown is fixed on the food printer 17, and different food consumables for printing are stored in each raw material storage device. The chip model of the controller 15 is Atmega8, and the controller 15 is electrically connected with the electrical parts of each raw material storage device identification device, and is used to control the RFID card reader 9 on the raw material storage device 16, and then read Write the content on the RFID tag 2. The chip model of the communication unit 14 is RTL8188CUS, and the communication unit 14 is connected to the Internet through WIFI, and communicates with the cloud server 13 . The clou...

Abstract

The invention discloses raw material storing equipment for a food printer, a raw material tracing system and a judging method. The raw material storing equipment for the food printer comprises a storing machine main body, an information storing machine and an identifying device. The raw material tracing system comprises one or more raw material storing devices, a controller, a communication unit and a cloud server; and meanwhile the raw material storing equipment is traced and judged by the raw material tracing system. Through the technology of the internet of things, by depending on an electric erasable and programmable read-only memory EEPROM, a radio frequency identification technology RFID and the technology of the cloud server, the trackable and reversible functions of information of the raw material storing equipment are achieved, and the food safety problem of the raw material storing equipment for the food printer is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of printing equipment, and in particular relates to a food printer raw material storage device, a raw material tracking system and a determination method. Background technique [0002] In food printers, edible consumables are used. For example, food coloring or coffee extracts are used in coffee latte art machines; chocolate is used as processing consumables in chocolate printers. Since edible consumables have food safety requirements such as manufacturer qualifications, shelf life, and storage environment, it is an essential link in food printers to ensure the food safety of printing consumables through technical means. In the existing food printer technology, there is a lack of technical research and implementation of food raw material storage devices. The existing solutions mainly use containers compatible with traditional printers, and put them into use after simply filling food raw material consumables...
