[0026] Application Overview

[0027] In order to meet the urgent needs of the express logistics industry in terms of express safety, break the traditional fixed express logistics security thinking, and effectively make up for the security risk loopholes in each link of delivery, the express patrol system provided by this application realizes the automatic patrol of logistics routes, in order to improve the following problems:

[0028] First, crack down on and deter internal and external criminals who embezzle and steal high-value express mail. With the development of e-commerce, more and more consumers of high-value goods choose to buy on the Internet, and express delivery has become the mainstream delivery method for buyers and sellers. Therefore, in the process of receiving, transferring and delivering high-value express mail, criminals who are motivated by money and embezzlement and theft frequently occur, seriously affecting the safety of express mail and the reputation of corporate brands.

[0029] Second, it effectively makes up for the shortcomings of traditional video surveillance as the main security means. Video surveillance is limited by factors such as site, power supply, and transmission, and cannot effectively monitor the transportation links outside the enterprise site; video surveillance inside the site is often unable to function due to video blind spots, insufficient storage, and image pixels.

[0030] Third, solve the problem that the logistics in the supply chain platform management only has vehicle track information, but cannot truly realize the real-time control of cargo information. The traditional supply chain management platform equates the transportation track information of the whole vehicle transportation in the logistics link with the real-time information management of cargo, which brings huge potential risks. When abnormal risk events such as vehicle and cargo detention occur, the vehicle transportation track information will be lost, causing the time-sensitive cargo data to be out of control, affecting the stability of the supply chain.

[0031] Fourth, there is a lack of security measures for international express delivery, and it is difficult to find the risk nodes when abnormal loss occurs. Because international business involves multimodal transport, customs declaration, temporary warehousing, outsourcing of international transportation capacity and many other links, traditional fixed security measures cannot break through the restrictions of national borders, laws, and distances. Once the goods leave the country, they face huge security risks.

[0032] Fifth, we plan to mine and analyze the data obtained from automatic patrols in the future, continuously optimize the collection, transfer and delivery processes through big data computing, and improve production efficiency in real time and accurately. We can verify the timeliness of express delivery, the compliance of express delivery handover, plan the best transportation route, etc., and provide data support for command and dispatch, process design, and route planning.

[0033] Exemplary Systems

[0034] Based on the above analysis, this application provides a courier patrol system, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes patrol express and control background, wherein the appearance of patrol express is consistent with the appearance of preset express items, the outer packaging of patrol express is the same as the outer packaging of ordinary express, the outer packaging of patrol express includes a virtual express number, and patrol express includes a control module.

[0035] The control background is used to automatically generate the actual express number of the patrol express and associate the actual express number with the virtual express number, wherein the patrol express is transported according to the logistics route configured by the actual express number, and the virtual express number is used for external scanning and transportation information update of the patrol express during transportation; the control module is used to obtain the patrol information of the patrol express during transportation and transmit the patrol information to the control background; the control background is used to receive and store the patrol information transmitted by the control module, and generate patrol processing results based on the patrol information.

[0036] In this embodiment, patrol express refers to express that is pre-set for patrol. In order to ensure that patrol express can complete the patrol function under concealed conditions, the appearance of the patrol express is consistent with the appearance of the preset express items, and the outer packaging of the patrol express is the same as the outer packaging of ordinary express. The preset express items can be selected according to the actual situation and needs. Preferably, the transportation trunk command and dispatch system is used to determine the logistics route through the main transportation routes and key suppliers' vehicles. According to the different logistics routes to be patrolled, the preset express items select the express items that are more easily lost or more valuable on the logistics route. For example, for domestic single express, the preset express items can be selected from small, high-value, and easy-to-cash items such as mobile phones, smart watches, gold bars, power banks, etc., and the appearance of patrol express can be processed into mobile phones, smart watches, gold bars, power banks, etc.; for domestic large customer batch express, the preset express items can be selected from the consignment signed with the large customer. The logistics route of domestic large customer batch express is generally fixed and easy to be controlled by criminals. The patrol express and the batch consignment have the same appearance design, and the patrol express is mixed into the batch. For the transported goods, the transportation status of the goods is monitored in real time. If the patrol express has abnormal transportation behavior, an early warning message will be issued immediately and timely disposal will be carried out. Generally speaking, major domestic customers include mobile phone dealers, brand-name bag dealers, gold and other valuables dealers, etc. Correspondingly, the appearance of the patrol express can be processed into the shape of mobile phones, brand-name bags or gold bars; for international express, according to the particularity of international logistics routes, the preset express goods can be selected as large, low-value, and inconvenient to carry, such as engineering molds, mechanical parts, etc. The appearance of the patrol express is processed into engineering molds, mechanical parts, etc. accordingly, and the patrol express is mixed with other international goods in a relatively concentrated location to prevent them from being easily taken away and losing their protective position. At the same time, a larger power supply unit can be configured with a larger capacity to ensure sufficient power supply for long-distance transportation of the patrol express.

[0037] In this embodiment, in order to further enhance the concealment of patrol express, the outer packaging of patrol express is the same as that of ordinary express, and ordinary personnel cannot directly select patrol express from many express by the outer packaging or appearance of patrol express, so as to ensure that patrol express can complete the patrol function in a hidden way on the logistics route. At the same time, in order to ensure that patrol express can be recycled and minimize direct human intervention, the express number on the outer packaging of patrol express is a virtual express number, and the actual express number is generated by the control background, and then the virtual express number is associated with the actual express number, and the receiving information, sending information (including the pickup location and the receiving location, etc.) of the actual express number is assigned to the virtual express number. Preferably, the collection and delivery cycle is realized by using a smart express cabinet, that is, the pickup location and the receiving location can be different smart express cabinets, and the collection and delivery cycle is realized by reassigning the receiving and sending addresses online through the system control background.

[0038] In this embodiment, the patrol information obtained by the patrol express through the control module is any one or several environmental information that can be collected by the patrol express during the logistics transportation process. For example, the environmental information may include any one or several of location information, temperature, humidity, light intensity, vibration frequency, image information and / or sound information. After receiving the patrol information, the control background completes the storage and analysis of the patrol information, reduces the amount of data storage and data calculation required by the patrol express itself, thereby avoiding excessive configuration requirements for the patrol express and limiting the appearance design of the patrol express. At the same time, it avoids data loss due to abnormal situations such as man-made damage and inability to recycle the patrol express. The control background completes the storage and processing analysis of the patrol information, and can also facilitate the relevant staff to do further data processing on the basis of the basic data and patrol processing results, continuously optimize the collection, transfer and dispatch process through big data calculation, improve production efficiency in real time and accurately, and realize multiple functions such as verifying the timeliness of express delivery, express delivery compliance, and planning the optimal transportation route, providing data support for command and dispatch, process design, and route planning.

[0039] In this embodiment, the patrol processing result refers to the information generated after the control background processes the patrol information. The control background's processing logic for the patrol information can be preset according to actual conditions and needs. The processing logic can be preset to analyze whether the location information in the patrol information exceeds the preset safety area fence, or whether abnormal vibration occurs during the patrol process. The patrol processing result can be expressed in any one or more of a variety of data forms such as numbers, text, and curves. In addition, the control background can also include a human-computer interaction device, such as any one or more of a variety of devices such as a display screen, a prompt light, and a sound device, so as to facilitate the output of the meaning of the patrol processing result to relevant personnel.

[0040] In one embodiment, the control background is used to automatically update the actual express number when the patrol processing result indicates that the patrol express has completed the transportation process under the currently configured actual express number, and re-associate the updated actual express number with the virtual express number.

[0041] In this embodiment, when the patrol express is delivered to the receiving location in the actual express delivery number, the transportation of the patrol express on the currently selected logistics route ends. At this time, the patrol express can be put back into the next selected logistics route for the next patrol, thus realizing the recycling of the patrol express. When changing the express delivery information of the patrol express, there is no need to manually re-attach the express delivery slip to the patrol express, and only the actual express delivery number needs to be updated from the control background. Furthermore, the process of generating the actual express delivery number can be completed automatically through big data, or it can be manually configured as needed, thereby increasing the flexibility of the configuration of the actual express delivery number.

[0042] In one embodiment, the patrol express includes a power supply unit, which supplies power to the control module.

[0043] The control module is used to collect the real-time power of the power supply unit and transmit the real-time power to the control background; the control background is used to automatically update the actual express number when the real-time power is less than the preset power threshold and the patrol processing result indicates that the patrol express has completed the transportation process under the currently configured actual express number, and re-associate the updated actual express number with the virtual express number, wherein the receiving location of the logistics route configured by the updated actual express number is the preset express maintenance location.

[0044] In this embodiment, a power supply unit is configured in the patrol courier to supply power to the control module. The power supply unit is an independent electrical energy storage device, such as a disposable battery or a rechargeable battery. The power supply unit can only supply power to the control module for a period of time. When the power supply unit is exhausted, it is necessary to replace the power supply unit or charge the power supply unit. In order to facilitate the maintenance of the power supply unit, the control module obtains the real-time power of the power supply unit in real time. When the real-time power is less than the preset power threshold, it indicates that the remaining power of the power supply unit is not much and the power supply unit needs to be maintained. In this case, when the actual express number is updated, the receiving location in the actual express number is set to the preset express maintenance location.

[0045] In one embodiment, in order to locate the initial position of the patrol express, the patrol information includes real-time position information. In order to realize the positioning function of the patrol express, the control module of the patrol express is configured with a positioning unit, which is used to collect the first real-time position information of the patrol express with a first preset time period in the normal patrol mode and transmit it to the control background; the control background is used to receive the first real-time position information and generate a patrol processing result based on the first real-time position information.

[0046] In this embodiment, the positioning unit selects specific hardware equipment according to actual needs. Preferably, the unit unit adopts Beidou, Global Positioning System (GPS), mobile hotspot (WIFI), and base station multi-standard positioning equipment. The positioning unit is equipped with a multi-standard positioning function, which can ensure that the real-time location information is updated more stably and in real time. Among them, the Beidou and GPS positioning functions ensure that in remote long-distance transportation, far away from the border, and ocean transportation environments, patrol express can still upload real-time location information to the control background uninterruptedly; WIFI and base station positioning functions can improve the positioning accuracy while making up for the shortcomings of poor satellite positioning of patrol express in the electromagnetic shielding environment of vans. Among them, the first real-time location information refers to the real-time location information collected by the positioning unit in normal patrol mode with a first preset time period as a period.

[0047] In this embodiment, the patrol express can be pre-configured with multiple working modes according to actual needs, such as normal patrol mode, special patrol mode, key patrol mode, custom mode, etc. Preferably, when the patrol express is put into use, it is first set to normal patrol mode by default. In order to reduce the power consumption of the patrol express and extend the use time of the patrol express, the frequency of the patrol express reporting real-time location information can be controlled and adjusted. For example, in normal patrol mode, the first preset duration can be set to 60 minutes to 120 minutes; in key patrol mode, the reporting period of real-time location information can be adjusted to 10 seconds each time; in custom mode, the control background can remotely trigger the location report of the patrol express.

[0048] In one embodiment, the control module further includes a computing unit. A positioning unit is used to transmit the first real-time location information to the computing unit; a control backend is used to generate a safety area fence for patrolling express mail based on the logistics route configured by the actual express order number, and transmit the safety area fence to the computing unit; the computing unit is used to generate mode switching information when the first real-time location information exceeds the safety area fence, and transmit the mode switching information to the positioning unit and the control backend; the positioning unit is used to start a special patrol mode when receiving the mode switching information, and in the special patrol mode, collect the second real-time location information of the patrol express mail with a second preset time period as a period and transmit it to the control backend, wherein the second preset time period is less than the first preset time period; the control backend is used to receive the mode switching information and the second real-time location information, and generate a patrol processing result based on the mode switching information and the second real-time location information.

[0049] In this embodiment, after the control background generates the express number, according to the logistics route in the actual express number, a safety area fence can be set based on the logistics route, for example, a circular area is set for each logistics station passed in the logistics route, or a line width is set for the logistics route. When the positioning unit collects the first real-time location information of the patrol express, the first real-time location information is first compared with the safety area fence to determine whether the patrol express exceeds the pre-defined safety area fence. If it does not exceed the safety area fence, it indicates that the patrol express is transported normally according to the logistics route in the actual express number, and the patrol express is continuously maintained in the normal patrol mode, and the first real-time location information is uploaded to the control background at a low frequency. If the first real-time location information exceeds the safety area fence, it indicates that the patrol express deviates from the logistics route in the actual express number, and an abnormality occurs in the transportation process, then the special patrol mode is started. Since the second preset time is less than the first preset time, the second real-time location information of the patrol express is collected at a high frequency with the second preset time as a period, so as to more accurately obtain the relevant information of the patrol express and improve the accuracy of the control background patrol processing results. The second real-time location information refers to the real-time location information collected by the positioning unit in a special patrol mode with a second preset time period as a period.

[0050] In one embodiment, the patrol express includes a computing unit and a sensor, wherein the sensor is pre-configured based on a preset express item.

[0051] The sensor is used to sleep in the normal patrol mode, and to start immediately when the preset trigger information is collected, generate sensor start information and transmit it to the calculation unit; the calculation unit is used to generate mode switching information and transmit it to the positioning unit when the sensor start information is received; the positioning unit is used to start the special patrol mode when the mode switching information is received, and in the special patrol mode, the second real-time location information of the patrol express is collected with the second preset time period as a period and transmitted to the control background, wherein the second preset time period is less than the first preset time period. The second real-time location information refers to the real-time location information collected by the positioning unit with the second preset time period as a period in the special patrol mode.

[0052] In this embodiment, in order to adapt to different patrol scenarios, corresponding sensors are configured for patrol express according to actual conditions. For example, when the express items are preset to be cold chain products, the patrol express is processed into cold chain products with the same appearance. According to the particularity of cold chain transportation, a temperature sensor is configured for the patrol express. For another example, when the patrol express needs to go through a static storage stage, a vibration sensor is configured for the patrol express. The actual state of the patrol express is detected by the configured personalized sensor. Preferably, in order to reduce energy consumption, the sensor is dormant in the normal patrol mode by default. The sensor will only start when the sensor collects preset trigger information. For example, when the temperature exceeds the preset temperature threshold, or the vibration frequency exceeds the preset frequency threshold, the corresponding temperature sensor or vibration sensor will start, and the normal patrol mode of the patrol express is switched to the special patrol mode through the mode switching information.

[0053] In one embodiment, based on the different information collected by different sensors, the specific content of the preset trigger information is also different. The sensor may include any one or more of a vibration sensor, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a light sensor, and a pressure sensor; accordingly, the preset trigger information includes any one or more of a seismic frequency, temperature, humidity, light intensity, and pressure value.

Especially for thieves, the sound information and image information can be used as an important basis for subsequent legal proceedings.

[0064] In one embodiment, the control background is used to generate control instructions and transmit the control instructions to the control module, as well as to obtain feedback information of the patrol express on the control instructions and generate patrol processing results based on the feedback information, wherein the control instructions are instructions for adjusting the patrol express transportation process.

[0065] In this embodiment, the control background can flexibly configure the patrol express through control instructions, adjust the transportation route and detention time of the patrol express, improve the flexibility of the patrol process, and realize the verification of various express delivery modes.

[0066] For example, for express delivery detention, when the patrol express arrives at the transfer yard or business department at place B from place A, the control background virtually triggers the detention instruction, and the patrol express checks whether there are any violations during the detention period, such as whether illegal vibration occurs, whether the patrol express is opened illegally; if there is no violation, the detention period ends and delivery continues; if there is illegal unpacking, the special patrol mode of the patrol express is started. For express forwarding, after the patrol express leaves place A, the control background issues a forwarding instruction, changes the destination or the receiving location, and checks whether there are any violations during the forwarding process, such as exceeding the safety area fence. For express return, after the patrol express leaves place A and arrives at place B, the control background issues a return instruction to check whether there are any violations during the return process of the patrol express, such as exceeding the safety area fence. For suspended delivery, after the patrol express arrives at place B, the control background issues a suspended delivery instruction, requiring the patrol express to be stored at the outlet, and checks whether there are any violations during the temporary storage at the outlet, such as whether the patrol express is opened illegally.

[0067] Through the flexible issuance of control instructions, the details of the express delivery process can be inspected in more detail, further improving the safety and compliance of express delivery.

[0068] In a specific embodiment, the patrol express is processed into a mobile phone, and the process of completing the patrol through the express patrol system is as follows:

[0069] S1, disguised patrol express: implant the control module into the mobile phone model, disguised as a mobile phone (or other high-value and easily convertible items), and the patrol express is configured as "normal patrol mode".

[0070] S2, Patrol Express Packaging: Pack and seal the mobile phones in boxes according to company standards.

[0071] S3, Generate waybill: Control the background to generate a virtual express number and an actual express number and associate them, for example, the virtual express number SF0123456789; there is no actual sender in the actual express number, and the sending place and receiving place can be set to the express cabinet or the virtual address automatically generated by the system.

[0072] S4, delivery: This type of patrol express is delivered to the routes where the system determines that cases are more frequent, for example: from the express locker at location A to the express locker at location B.

[0073] S5, the following situations may occur during the delivery of patrol express:

[0074] Special mode activation: When a parcel is in transit, the following situations will activate the special mode: the first real-time location information of the parcel in normal patrol mode exceeds the safety area fence; someone opens the packaging box illegally, and the patrol parcel is transparent; someone presses the power button illegally. After the parcel is activated by the illegal opening of the box, if it can be recovered, the disguise mission can continue; if it has been damaged, the system will no longer generate a new order for it.

[0075] During the transportation process, the control background can use control instructions to perform regulatory verification on the following situations, such as express delivery detention, express delivery forwarding, express delivery return, and suspended delivery.

[0076] Smooth delivery: The patrol express is safely delivered from cabinet A to cabinet B, and no violations mentioned above occur during the journey. At this time, the actual express order number ends.

[0077] S6, after the express delivery arrives successfully, the background automatically refreshes the actual express delivery number, and re-orders it from C to D, giving the number SF0123456789 a new definition so that it can circulate again within the large network system.

[0078] S7, the patrol express continues to execute the above steps S4 to S6, and continuously changes the delivery address to achieve the purpose of continuous patrol.

[0079] S8, the background automatically generates a record of the changed address. At this time, you only need to hide the routing information of the patrol express. Each time a new address is changed, the previous routing information will be overwritten.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present application, the express patrol system includes patrol express and a control background, wherein the appearance of the patrol express is consistent with the appearance of the preset express item, the outer packaging of the patrol express is the same as the outer packaging of the ordinary express, the outer packaging of the patrol express includes a virtual express number, and the patrol express includes a control module; the control background is used to automatically generate an actual express number for the patrol express, and associate the actual express number with the virtual express number, wherein the patrol express is transported according to the logistics route configured by the actual express number, and the virtual express number is used for external scanning and transportation information update of the patrol express during transportation; the control module is used to obtain patrol information of the patrol express during transportation, and transmit the patrol information to the control background; the control background is used to receive and store the patrol information transmitted by the control module, and generate patrol processing results based on the patrol information.

[0081] In the above scheme, patrol express is placed in the logistics route to form a patrol of the logistics route. The appearance of the patrol express is consistent with the appearance of the preset express items, the outer packaging of the patrol express is the same as the outer packaging of ordinary express, and the virtual express number on the outer packaging of the patrol express is similar to the express number on the outer packaging of ordinary express. Ordinary personnel cannot distinguish the difference between patrol express and ordinary express with the naked eye, and the control background can complete the logistics route configuration through the actual express number, thereby realizing the hidden patrol of patrol express on the logistics route. At the same time, the control background can also give different practical meanings to the virtual express number through the actual express number, thereby improving the flexibility of the patrol express transportation process. If there are any security issues with the patrol express transported on the logistics route, through the automatic exchange of patrol information between the control background and the patrol express, the relevant personnel can accurately and timely obtain the patrol processing results through the control background, and solve the security problems in time, thereby improving the overall security of all express on the logistics route.

[0082] Furthermore, the express patrol system can be used to combat and deter internal and external criminals who occupy and steal high-value express parcels. The flexible and diverse electronic patrol express disguise forms can truly achieve 100% precise strikes in the short term, and have a psychological deterrent effect on relevant personnel in the long term, playing a role in express safety prevention. It can make up for the shortcomings of traditional video surveillance as the main security method, breaking the limitations of national boundaries, laws, and distances. It can provide rich data resources for the application of big data in the express logistics link, discover operational problems through data analysis, and output improvements, thereby improving transportation efficiency and reducing carrier risks.
