Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coding printing technology, specifically to a lottery printing management system based on coding technology. Background Technology

[0002] Lottery printing technology combines specialized design, printing, and anti-counterfeiting techniques to ensure the accuracy, security, and identifiability of lotteries. As a high-precision and high-security printing industry, lottery printing typically uses professional graphic design software to design lotteries. This involves the integrated design of color patterns, barcodes, serial numbers, and anti-counterfeiting elements for lottery verification. It employs offset printing, gravure printing, digital printing, and screen printing to ensure print quality and readability. To prevent counterfeiting and ensure security, watermarks are added inside the paper, and barcodes or QR codes are engraved on the surface for electronic verification. Each lottery ticket is printed with a unique serial number or other identification information, and fluorescent ink is used to display under specific light sources, making it difficult for ordinary people to copy.

[0003] Although lottery printing technology has developed to a fairly high level, there are still some shortcomings in actual management. In the lottery printing process, quality control mainly relies on manual inspection, and the inspection standards and procedures are not uniform. For some minor quality defects, manual inspection methods often fail, which reduces the accuracy of lottery quality inspection. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a lottery printing management system based on coding technology. The system includes a data acquisition unit that collects lottery type, quantity, batch number, order data, and historical sales data, and calculates the total number of lottery tickets to be printed. This data is transmitted to a coding generation unit, which generates QR codes and barcodes for unique identification of the lottery tickets. The printing unit prints the lottery tickets after coding generation, calculating printing speed, color saturation, and contrast based on production order requirements. A quality inspection unit performs quality inspection on the printed tickets, calculates the yield rate, identifies the lottery scheme code and production batch number, and removes non-compliant tickets. Information on qualified tickets is sent to a storage management unit, which stores all qualified ticket information in a database, calculates inventory turnover rate, and predicts inventory demand for subsequent printing order analysis. A human-machine interface unit integrates data from all units for data visualization. This fully intelligent quality inspection technology avoids the shortcomings of manual quality inspection, improves the accuracy of quality inspection, and solves the aforementioned problems.

[0042] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the system flow of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0043] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Currently, quality control in lottery printing relies primarily on manual inspection, which lacks standardized inspection standards and procedures. This often renders manual inspection ineffective for minor quality defects, reducing the accuracy of lottery quality checks. Therefore, a lottery printing management system based on coding technology is proposed. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The system includes a data acquisition unit, an encoding generation unit, a printing unit, a quality inspection unit, a storage management unit, and a human-machine interface unit.

[0045] The data acquisition unit is designed to efficiently collect and manage lottery-related information. Utilizing advanced data acquisition technology, it interacts in real-time with various lottery sales terminals, back-end management systems, and production equipment via interfaces. It automatically identifies and records lottery types, including instant and number-selection types, and uses barcode scanning or RFID technology to ensure rapid and accurate entry of lottery information. The unit supports real-time monitoring and entry of lottery quantity and batch numbers, facilitating refined management of production batches. To further enhance data integrity and accuracy, the unit also integrates order data acquisition functionality. This function, through integration with the sales management system, aggregates detailed information for each order, including customer needs, projected sales volume, and delivery time. Simultaneously, the system accesses historical sales data to analyze and predict demand trends for various lottery types, ensuring that production plans match market demand. Through the aggregation and analysis of this data, the data acquisition unit not only calculates the total number of lottery tickets to be printed in real-time but also generates dynamic reports, providing accurate data support for lottery production decisions, thereby improving production efficiency and response speed.

[0046] The formula for calculating the total number of lottery tickets that need to be printed is as follows:

[0047]

[0048] Calculating the total number of lottery tickets to be printed can effectively improve the accuracy of production planning and resource utilization efficiency. Through automated data collection and calculation, the system can obtain real-time demand information for different types of lottery tickets, including instant sales data and historical sales records. This real-time capability ensures flexible production processes and avoids the risks of overproduction or stockouts. In the formula, N... total This represents the total number of lottery tickets to be printed, where m represents the number of lottery types, i represents the counter index, and Qcty...i This represents the number of orders for the i-th type of lottery. This means that the total number of lottery tickets printed is obtained by adding up the quantities of all different types of lottery tickets. Accurate calculation of the total number of tickets printed helps to coordinate the allocation of production resources, such as paper, ink and manpower, thereby reducing operating costs and improving overall efficiency.

[0049] The encoding generation unit generates lottery QR codes and barcodes based on the collected data, which are used for the unique identification of lottery tickets in the later stages.

[0050] The formula for generating a lottery QR code is as follows:

[0051] QRcode=Encode(D,ErrorCorrenctionLevel)

[0052] Lottery QR codes are an important function in modern lottery management. They primarily enhance the security of lottery sales and verification through unique encryption technology. QR codes can store rich information, including lottery type, batch number, and purchase time, and enable rapid scanning and verification during sales and prize redemption, significantly improving user experience. In the formula, QRcode represents the generated lottery QR code, D represents the lottery data to be encoded, ErrorCorrectionLevel represents the error correction level used for error correction during QR code generation, and Encode represents the generation function. QR codes can also link to specific applications or websites to provide users with additional information, such as lottery results, prize redemption methods, and precautions, further enhancing customer satisfaction and trust.

[0053] The formula for generating lottery barcodes is as follows:

[0054] Barcode = Encode(T, Symbology)

[0055] As a simple form of information encoding, lottery barcodes can quickly set up lottery identification systems. The generation and printing of barcodes greatly simplifies lottery management processes. Ticketing staff can quickly and accurately complete prize redemption, verification, and promotional information entry by scanning barcodes, thereby significantly improving work efficiency. In the formula, Barcode represents the generated lottery barcode, T represents the lottery number to be encoded, Symbology represents the barcode encoding type, and Encode represents the generation function. The uniqueness of the barcode ensures that each lottery ticket has its own specific identification information, which helps to prevent counterfeiting. It also facilitates the tracking of sales data and inventory management. The low cost and simple operation of barcodes are an important reason for their widespread use.

[0056] The printing unit prints lottery tickets after the lottery codes are generated. Based on production order requirements, it calculates printing speed, color saturation, and contrast, including:

[0057] The formula for calculating printing speed is as follows:

[0058]

[0059] Measuring printing speed makes the production process transparent, enabling dynamic adjustments to production plans to meet different market demands. During peak sales periods, timely understanding of printing speed and remaining production time helps companies better allocate production resources and ensure on-time delivery. In the formula, Ypsd represents the printing speed, Cysl represents the number of lottery tickets printed, and Yssj represents the printing time. The statistics on printing speed can also provide data support for subsequent production capacity assessment, promote the improvement of production processes, reduce machine idleness and malfunctions, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing costs.

[0060] The formula for calculating the saturation of printed colors is as follows:

[0061]

[0062] Accurate color control ensures the consistency of design patterns, providing customers with a high-quality visual experience. By monitoring color saturation in real time, businesses can promptly identify printing anomalies and make quick adjustments, such as ink ratios and printing pressure, thereby preventing the production of defective products. In the formula, SQ represents the printing color saturation, and C... max C represents the largest component in the RGB color model. min Representing the smallest component in the RGB color model, color consistency not only affects the purchasing experience of lottery buyers, but also directly relates to the shaping of brand image. Therefore, controlling color saturation is crucial for enhancing the market competitiveness of lottery.

[0063] The formula for calculating print contrast is as follows:

[0064]

[0065] By calculating print contrast, the lottery management system can ensure that key information on each lottery ticket, such as numbers and barcodes, is clearly visible under different lighting and angle conditions. Good contrast control effectively improves information readability and reduces misunderstandings and difficulties in claiming prizes due to unclear information. In the formula, Ydbd represents print contrast, and L... max L represents the maximum brightness in a printed lottery ticket image. minThe minimum brightness value in the printed lottery image is represented by k, which is a regularization parameter with a value of 1. It is used to balance the influence of minimum and maximum brightness. Appropriate contrast can also enhance the visual appeal of the lottery pattern, making it more visually impactful and thus increasing sales. Dynamically adjusting and monitoring the printing contrast will help to identify potential printing problems in a timely manner and take remedial measures to ensure the quality of each batch of lottery tickets.

[0066] The quality inspection unit performs quality inspection on the printed lottery tickets and calculates the lottery ticket printing yield rate, using the formula shown below:

[0067]

[0068] Calculating the yield rate of lottery ticket printing helps companies identify quality problems in the production process in a timely manner, enabling effective improvements. Monitoring the yield rate not only guides the production team to focus on defects and optimize production processes and operating procedures, but also helps reduce costs and improve resource utilization. In the formula, CL represents the lottery ticket printing yield rate, and N... good N represents the number of eligible lottery tickets. total This indicates the total number of lottery tickets to be printed. By analyzing historical yield data, we can summarize the optimal production conditions and procedures, thereby forming a closed loop of continuous improvement and providing strong quality assurance for subsequent production.

[0069] After reading the lottery ticket scanning information, the quality inspection unit determines whether the lottery ticket scheme code and production batch number are the same as the production work order. If they are not the same, the printed lottery tickets are rejected as unqualified products to prevent lottery tickets from being mixed in batches. The information of the lottery tickets that have passed the inspection is sent to the storage management unit.

[0070] The storage management unit systematically inputs information from all qualified lottery tickets into a database, creating a comprehensive and traceable digital archive. This process utilizes efficient data acquisition and barcode recognition technologies to ensure that detailed information about each lottery ticket, including its type, production batch, printing date, and sales status, is accurately recorded and stored. Subsequently, it calculates inventory turnover in real time, analyzes historical sales data and market trends, and uses this model to predict future inventory demand. This intelligent forecasting not only optimizes subsequent printing order formulation, reducing excessive inventory and capital tied up, but also allows for timely adjustments to production strategies in response to demand fluctuations, ensuring the flexibility and stability of market supply.

[0071] The formula for calculating inventory turnover rate is as follows:

[0072]

[0073] Inventory turnover is an important indicator for measuring the efficiency of a lottery management system. By calculating inventory turnover, companies can gain a deeper understanding of the current status of inventory management and areas for improvement. A high turnover rate means that the inventory is highly liquid, reducing capital occupation and improving the flexibility of cash flow management. In the formula, RC represents inventory turnover, Xshg represents the number of qualified lottery tickets sold per unit time, and Pjsl represents the average number of lottery tickets in stock during that period. This indicator enables managers to make more scientific purchasing decisions and adjust production plans in a timely manner to adapt to changes in market demand. In addition, the calculation of inventory turnover can also help companies avoid excessive inventory, reduce the risk of product obsolescence or depreciation, and improve the overall operational efficiency of the supply chain.

[0074] The human-machine interface unit integrates data from all the above units for data visualization. The displayed information includes order information, current production speed, equipment running time, output of each piece of equipment, total output of the production line, remaining output of the order, remaining time to complete the order, production line operation status, alarm information of each piece of equipment, and information on the rejection of defective products. This integration and visualization method not only improves production efficiency and decision-making ability, but also enhances the transparency and controllability of the overall production process.

[0075] By applying the above system, fully intelligent quality inspection technology is used in the lottery printing management process, avoiding the defects of manual lottery quality inspection and improving the accuracy of lottery quality inspection.

[0076] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
