Anti-counterfeiting and identifying method for bottled wine, grease and cosmetics based on positioning technology

Abstract

The invention discloses an anti-counterfeiting and identifying method for bottled wine, grease and cosmetics based on a positioning technology. A miniature wireless positioner (a positioning chip is damaged when the bottle is opened) is packaged at a bottle opening, and the positioning chip is used for defining and representing wine, oil, grease and paste and further representing a product. A unique identity code (an anti-counterfeiting code and a product code) of the positioning chip is edited, a unique identity code (an anti-counterfeiting code and a query code) of the bottle body is edited and engraved at an obvious position, and a physical product is converted into a digital product which can be effectively anti-counterfeiting and accurately authenticated by using the two codes. A production enterprise establishes a positioning and tracking system and a query and identification platform, two-code and digital products are registered in the positioning and tracking system and the query and identification platform, two-time product production information tracing (birth), real-time use state (storage and death) and spatial position (known and unknown) positioning and tracking are carried out, and authenticity is accurately identified. The method is suitable for boxes, barrels, canned products and product outer packaging boxes. Counterfeit products with punched bottle bodies are not identified by the method.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of product anti-counterfeiting and identification, and discloses a method for effectively preventing counterfeiting and accurately identifying bottled wine, oil, and cosmetics based on positioning technology and utilizing digital and information technology.

[0002] This method is applicable to boxes, barrels, canned products and product outer packaging cartons.

[0003] This method is not suitable for identification of counterfeit products with holes in the bottle. Technical Background

[0004] Bottled wine, oils, and cosmetics are daily consumer goods for the general public. They are in large quantities and in many varieties. Counterfeiting and shoddy products are rampant, and famous brands and high-end products are the hardest hit by counterfeiting. Modern anti-counterfeiting technologies such as radio frequency chip traceability, QR codes, and lasers, as well as traditional anti-counterfeiting technologies such as clear codes and hidden marks, have been cracked and counterfeited. In addition, product authenticity identification services cannot meet the needs. Manufacturers cannot provide timely and accurate authenticity identification services in the sales and consumption links. Third-party and manual identification also have inaccuracies. Operators and consumers do not need or can learn and master various knowledge and methods of identifying and distinguishing counterfeits. Therefore, it is necessary to vigorously develop and apply new anti-counterfeiting technologies and methods, innovate the means and methods of authenticity identification, and conduct authenticity query and identification in a timely and accurate manner.

[0005] At present, positioning technology and services have become very mature. Especially with the continuous strengthening of the construction of my country's Beidou positioning system, the positioning accuracy is getting higher and higher, and its application is becoming more and more extensive. At the same time, digital and information technology has also been very developed. By digitally transforming the core parts of the product, and then tracking its production information traceability, real-time usage status and real-time spatial position through a tracking system and query and identification platform, effective anti-counterfeiting and accurate identification can be carried out.

[0006] The invention discloses a method for anti-counterfeiting and identifying bottled wine, oil and cosmetics based on positioning technology. Summary of the invention

[0007] A micro wireless locator is encapsulated at the bottle mouth (the locating chip will be destroyed when the bottle is opened), and the locating chip is used to define and represent the core parts of the wine, oil, fat, and cream, and then represent the product. A unique code with a certain number of digits, which is mixed regularly or irregularly, or is single-encoded, is used as the identification code of the locating chip, and also as the anti-counterfeiting code and product code; a unique code with a certain number of digits, which is mixed regularly or irregularly, or is single-encoded, is used as the bottle identification code, and also as the anti-counterfeiting code and query code. The "two codes" together transform the physical product into a "digital product" for anti-counterfeiting (the bottle cap can also be included, and the "two codes" become "three codes", but the "two-number" code is simpler and equally accurate).

[0008] Production enterprises establish corresponding positioning tracking systems and query and identification platforms, and operators and consumers can conduct authenticity inquiries and identifications at any time. Production enterprises can promptly, directly and accurately provide the production information, real-time usage status information, real-time spatial location information and authenticity identification results of the products being queried, so that counterfeit and shoddy products that use old bottle recycling, pluck the heads, and forge bottle body identity codes and positioning chip identity codes can be easily identified, allowing producers to produce with confidence, operators to operate with confidence, and consumers to consume with confidence.

[0009] The present invention does not involve the industrial design, production and operation of micro wireless locators, positioning chips, bottle-opening destruction methods, positioning tracking systems, query and identification platforms, etc. Specific implementation methods

[0011] 1. Production stage

[0012] 1. Select a positioning method and system suitable for the company's products, such as the Beidou system or GPS system for satellite positioning, and develop or purchase a dedicated micro wireless locator and a positioning chip that will be destroyed when the bottle is opened. The functional requirements of the micro wireless locator and its positioning chip include but are not limited to:

[0013] ① Real-time positioning function. The terminal equipment of the manufacturer can track and locate in real time, and the positioning accuracy is in meters, and the error should be within 1 meter.

[0014] ②The manufacturer can independently assign a unique identity code to the positioning chip and register it on the query and identification platform.

[0015] ③ The positioning chip of the micro wireless locator must be extremely easy to damage. No matter how the bottle is opened, it must be completely destroyed, and when it is damaged, it can automatically send damage information to the positioning tracking system.

[0016] ④ The energy consumption of the micro wireless locator and positioning chip should be low, and the positioning chip should preferably share the same wirelessly rechargeable power supply with the micro locator.

[0017] ⑤The micro wireless locator and positioning chip have automatic sleep and tracking activation functions (saving energy, extending service life, and increasing the effective query and identification period and number of times).

[0018] ⑥The micro wireless locator and positioning chip must be prevented from being corroded by wine, oil, fat, and cream, and from causing contamination to the wine, oil, fat, and cream.

[0019] ⑦Adapt to certain high and low temperatures.

[0020] ⑧Strong anti-interference ability.

[0021] 2. Use Chinese and English letters, numbers, etc., mixed or encoded regularly or irregularly into a unique code of several digits as the identification code of the positioning chip, as well as the anti-counterfeiting code and product code. This code and the bottle identification code together turn the physical product into a "digital product".

[0022] A single numeric code, alphabetic code, or sequential code is also acceptable, but mixed codes of numbers, letters, etc. greatly increase the difficulty of forgery.

[0023] 3. After the wine, oil, fat and cream are filled, the micro wireless locator is encapsulated between the bottle mouth and the bottle cap. No matter how the bottle is opened, the positioning chip must be destroyed as soon as the bottle is opened, and a damage information is sent to the positioning tracking system.

[0024] 4. The manufacturer shall register the identification code of the positioning chip on the positioning tracking system and query and identification platform.

[0025] 5. Use Chinese and English letters, numbers, etc., mixed or singly compiled into a unique code of several digits in a regular or irregular manner as the bottle identity code, which can also be used as an anti-counterfeiting code and query code. Use physical or chemical methods to engrave it in a conspicuous position on the bottle. Together with the positioning chip identity code, the physical product is turned into a "digital product". Entering this code during query and identification can enhance the experience and trust of operators and consumers.

[0026] A single numeric code, alphabetic code, or sequential code is also acceptable, but mixed codes of numbers, letters, etc. greatly increase the difficulty of forgery.

[0027] The bottle identity code can also be a QR code or a barcode, but it is not conducive to quick on-site identification by operators and consumers, and it leaves room for counterfeiters to conduct a full set of counterfeiting by establishing a counterfeit query platform.

[0028] 6. The manufacturer shall register the bottle identity code on the query and identification platform and note at least the following product information:

[0029] A. Name of manufacturer: XXX.

[0030] B. Product name: XXX.

[0031] C. Bottle identification code: XXX.

[0032] D. Product specifications: XX degree XXX ml.

[0033] E. Production standard: XXX.

[0034] F. Production date: XXXX.

[0035] G. Selected positioning method and system: Satellite positioning Beidou or GPS

[0036] H. Valid query and appraisal period (times): XX years, XX times, or XX years, XX times.

[0037] The effective query and identification period should be set reasonably based on product characteristics and shelf life. It is best to choose XX years and XX times.

[0038] Selecting only year XX may lead to an increase in the number of unnecessary queries and increase the pressure on the query and identification platform.

[0039] Selecting only XX times may result in counterfeiters using up all the valid query and identification times in a rush, and the query and identification platform can no longer accurately query and identify the product, and may use counterfeit bottle codes, positioning chips, and other counterfeiting activities.

[0040] The above information must come from the manufacturer's trademark on the bottle and the relevant information and marks on the bottle body and bottle cap. Otherwise, the inquirer will not be able to verify the product production information and determine the authenticity when inquiring and identifying.

[0041] 7. Manufacturing enterprises collect product production information, establish and operate positioning tracking systems and query and identification platforms.

[0042] (II) Query and Identification Stage

[0043] First query identification:

[0044] 1. The inquirer checks whether he is in the coverage range of the corresponding positioning system signal, and whether the power of the micro wireless locator and positioning chip meets the working requirements (or charge it with a dedicated wireless charging device first).

[0045] 2. The inquirer uses a computer, mobile phone or other tools to enter the inquiry and identification platform, correctly enter the bottle identity code, and the inquiry and identification platform will feedback the following information:

[0046] ① Our company has never produced a product with the bottle identification code xxx, so the product you are inquiring about is not a genuine product.

[0047] ② The basic information of the product with bottle identification code xxx produced by our company is as follows:

[0048] A, Name of manufacturer: XXX.

[0049] B, Product name: XXX.

[0050] C, bottle identification code: XXX.

[0051] D, Product specifications: XX degrees XXX ml.

[0052] E, production standard: XXX.

[0053] F, production date: XXXX.

[0054] G. Valid query and appraisal period (times): XX years XX times, XX queries and appraisals have been completed.

[0055] Please check the relevant information to determine the authenticity of the product being queried (if there is any inconsistency, it is a counterfeit product. If all are consistent, then conduct real-time usage status query and identification.

[0056] For those whose effective query and identification period has expired, or whose query and identification times have been used up within the effective period, a reminder should be given that authenticity query and identification can no longer be carried out, and early warning prompts and suggestions should be given to make careful choices.

[0057] 3. Click to check and identify the real-time status of the product. The platform will respond with the following information:

[0058] ① The product with bottle identification code xxx produced by our company has been used or damaged, and the one being queried is not a genuine product.

[0059] ② The product with bottle identification code xxx produced by our company is unused. Please conduct real-time spatial location query and identification.

[0060] Checking the real-time usage status of the product can effectively prevent fraud in the recycling of old bottles (either they are in use or have been used), but it does not affect the original manufacturer's recycling and reuse of old bottles (just mark the original code and then engrave a new code and explain it in the new product information). It is environmentally friendly and saves costs.

[0061] Checking the real-time usage status of the product can effectively prevent fraud (the positioning chip is either intact or damaged).

[0062] 4. Click to query and identify the real-time spatial location of the product. There are two methods: direct feedback of the query and identification results and direct feedback of the real-time spatial location of the authentic product. The direct feedback of the real-time spatial location of the authentic product has a relatively large loophole. It can mainly be used to steal by recording the identity code of the unused product bottle in advance, and then querying and obtaining the real-time spatial location information of the product. It can also use similar means to steal sensitive areas and facility location information. Therefore, the present invention adopts the direct feedback of the query and identification results method. The specific method is:

[0063] Turn on the positioning and location sharing functions of your computer or mobile phone and place it within 1 meter of the product being queried. The platform will respond with the following information:

[0064] ①The real-time spatial location of the product with the bottle identity code xxx produced by our company is not in the same location as your computer and mobile phone. The product inquired is not authentic.

[0065] ② The real-time spatial location of the product with the bottle identity code xxx produced by our company cannot be determined, and the product being queried is not authentic (regardless of where the authentic product is stored or damaged in any location that cannot be queried, it can be determined that the product queried and identified on site is not authentic).

[0066] ③The real-time spatial location of the product with the bottle identity code xxx produced by our company is in the same location as your computer and mobile phone, so the product being queried should be authentic.

[0067] However, in practice, there are three situations that may lead to inaccurate identification: the counterfeit product using the same bottle identification code "happens" to be in the same horizontal position as the authentic product but at a different vertical height, and the counterfeit product is used as the query and identification subject; the authentic product is intentionally hidden near the counterfeit product using the same bottle identification code, and the counterfeit product is used as the query and identification subject; the query and identification error is caused by reasonable positioning errors (including positioning errors of the queried and identified product and positioning errors of computer and mobile phone query and identification equipment).

[0068] Therefore, a second horizontal off-site query and identification must be conducted.

[0069] The first inquiry and identification is an absolutely necessary basic inquiry and identification.

[0070] Second query identification:

[0071] The second query and identification is based on the result of the first identification that "it should be authentic". The operation method is exactly the same as the first one, but the product must be taken a certain horizontal distance away from the first query and identification location (at least more than the allowable error value). First, it can effectively solve the error problem that occurred in the first query and identification; second, it can prevent the problem of exchanging authenticity in the operation and consumption links (counterfeit products mainly flow into the market through this means, harming operators and consumers); third, it can also accurately identify authentic products in the same location and counterfeit products with the same bottle identity code and the same positioning chip identity code (the tracking system can only track the products registered by the manufacturer itself, and counterfeit products cannot be registered in the same system, nor can they be tracked. If the two are placed in the same location for a query and identification, the authenticity cannot be accurately identified. If one of them is horizontally queried and identified a second time in a different location, the authenticity can be immediately and accurately identified).

[0072] The second inquiry and appraisal is an absolutely necessary review inquiry and appraisal.

Claims

1. A method for preventing bottled wine, oil, and cosmetics from being counterfeited based on positioning technology, comprising a micro wireless locator and a positioning chip that is destroyed when the bottle is opened, a unique identification code of the positioning chip (product code, anti-counterfeiting code), wine, oil, fat, cream, bottle body, a unique identification code of the bottle body (query code, anti-counterfeiting code), and bottle cap, wherein the technical features are as follows: a micro wireless locator (the positioning chip is destroyed when the bottle is opened) is encapsulated between the bottle mouth and the bottle cap, the positioning chip therein is used to define and represent the wine, oil, fat, and cream of the product, and thus represents the product, the intact or damaged state of the positioning chip represents the unused or used (damaged) state of the product, and the real-time spatial position of the positioning chip represents the real-time spatial position of the product.

2. The unique identification code of the positioning chip, the unique identification code of the bottle, and the "digital product" according to claim 1 are technically characterized in that a unique code is edited regularly or irregularly with numbers, letters, etc. as the positioning chip identification code (anti-counterfeiting code, product code), and a unique code is edited regularly or irregularly with numbers, letters, etc. as the bottle identification code (anti-counterfeiting code, query code), which is engraved on a conspicuous position on the bottle. The "two codes" of the positioning chip identification code and the bottle identification code jointly transform the physical products of wine, oil, and cosmetics into unique "digital products". The uniqueness of the "two codes" can effectively prevent counterfeiting, and using them together greatly improves the anti-counterfeiting performance and lays the foundation for timely and accurate authenticity query and identification of products.

3. A method for querying, eliminating false and retaining true, and accurately identifying bottled wine, oils, and cosmetics based on positioning technology, digital technology, and information technology, including a positioning tracking system, a query and identification platform, a positioning chip identity code, a bottle identity code, a computer, a mobile phone, a first query and identification, and a horizontal off-site second query and identification. Its technical characteristics are that the queryer uses a computer, mobile phone, and other devices to enter the enterprise query and identification platform, input the bottle identity code to query the product's production information (birth), real-time usage status (existence, death), and real-time spatial location (knowable, unknown) in turn, and the query and identification platform promptly activates the tracking system to verify and track the corresponding positioning chip identity code. The above information of the represented products is used to accurately identify the authenticity in turn: ① Compare the production information of the authentic product with the production information of the queried product to accurately identify the counterfeit product (such as counterfeiters using the bottle identity code), ② Compare the real-time usage status of the authentic product with the real-time usage status of the queried product to accurately identify the counterfeit product (such as counterfeiters who recycle old bottles or counterfeiters who pull out the heads), ③ Compare the real-time spatial location information of the authentic product with the real-time spatial location of the queried product to accurately identify the counterfeit product (such as those who use the bottle identity code of unused products and the counterfeit positioning chip identity code to forge products, and are not in the same location as the authentic product).

4. The second inquiry and identification according to claim 3 has the following technical features: if the first identification result is "should be authentic", it must be taken away from the first inquiry and identification location at a certain horizontal distance for a second inquiry and identification, so as to accurately identify the authenticity of the product: the final result is still "should be authentic" if it is authentic, otherwise it is a counterfeit product. The main reasons for the first inquiry and identification being "should be authentic" and the second being a counterfeit product are: ① the counterfeit product using the same bottle identity code "happens" to be in the same horizontal position as the authentic product but at a different vertical height, and the counterfeit product is used as the inquiry and identification subject; ② the authentic product is intentionally hidden near the counterfeit product using the same bottle identity code, and the counterfeit product is used as the inquiry and identification subject; ③ the inquiry and identification error is caused by reasonable positioning error (including the positioning error of the queried and identified product and the positioning error of the computer and mobile phone inquiry and identification equipment); ④ the first identification "should be authentic" but was swapped or replaced with a fake during the second inquiry and identification process.
