Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tool cabinet technology, and in particular relates to a tool cabinet system based on RFID technology. Background Technology

[0002] Under the major trend of intelligent manufacturing, tool cabinets, as important equipment for item management and storage, are receiving increasing attention from enterprises regarding their performance and efficiency. However, existing tool cabinets have some shortcomings in application, such as the lack of efficient automatic identification technology, resulting in cumbersome and time-consuming item management and retrieval processes. Furthermore, due to sensor design issues, existing tool cabinets may exhibit uneven label reading and writing, affecting the stability and accuracy of identification. Simultaneously, the use of low-frequency RFID or other technologies also results in slow data transmission speeds, further impacting overall work efficiency.

[0003] As a non-contact automatic identification technology, RFID can automatically identify target objects and acquire relevant data through radio frequency signals. Its low implementation and deployment costs, along with its convenient data collection and transmission methods, have garnered widespread attention from enterprises. Compared to barcodes, magnetic stripe cards, and IC cards, RFID technology offers advantages such as batch processing, long-distance non-contact reading and writing, large data capacity, reusability, insensitivity to contamination, and adaptability to various complex working conditions. Furthermore, RFID technology makes anti-counterfeiting and traceability easier. Through RFID traceability systems, enterprises can collect target product information, record raw material information, and map RFID electronic tags onto packaging during the product manufacturing process, achieving traceability and anti-counterfeiting throughout the product's entire lifecycle. In the era of the Internet of Things, RFID wireless radio frequency identification technology gives every item its own "ID card," which can be widely used in item identification and tracking scenarios. With continuous technological development, the price of RFID tag products will become increasingly affordable, and it is believed that in the near future, RFID technology will penetrate into more industry scenarios.

[0004] Based on the above background, this utility model proposes a tool cabinet system based on RFID technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tool cabinet system based on RFID technology, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] This utility model embodiment is implemented as follows: a tool cabinet system based on RFID technology includes a cabinet body, an antenna, a connecting line, and an RFID reader;

[0007] The cabinet is divided into an upper part and a lower part. The lower part of the cabinet is used to store labeled items, and RFID tags are attached to the side of the items where the labels are stored.

[0008] The antennas are installed on both sides inside the lower half of the cabinet and are used to transmit and receive RFID signals under the control of the RFID reader.

[0009] The connecting cable connects the antenna to the RFID reader;

[0010] The RFID reader is installed inside the lower half of the cabinet and is located at the rear. It is used to read information from RFID tags and send the read data to the system responsible for processing and storing the data.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a tool cabinet system based on RFID technology. The system includes a cabinet body, a buckle 1, an antenna 4, a connecting cable 5, an RFID reader 6, a display screen 7, and a recess 8. The compatible items are tagged items 3 (such as USB flash drives / keys) with RFID tags 2 attached to their sides for system identification.

[0028] The cabinet is divided into an upper section and a lower section. The upper section is equipped with a display screen 7 and is responsible for processing and storing RFID data, as well as providing the user interface. The lower section serves as the storage area for the tagged items 3.

[0029] The antennas 4 are installed on both sides inside the lower half of the cabinet, and they are responsible for transmitting and receiving RFID signals under the control of the RFID reader 6.

[0030] The connecting line 5 connects the antenna 4 and the RFID reader 6, ensuring that data can be transmitted smoothly between the two.

[0031] The RFID reader 6 is installed inside the lower half of the cabinet and is located at the rear. It is used to read the information in the RFID tag 2 and send the read data to the system responsible for processing and storing the data. The RFID reader 6 operates at a frequency of 13.56 MHz.

[0032] The groove 8 is located on the front side of the lower half of the cabinet and is recessed inward, providing a fixed storage position for the labeled items 3. Each groove 8 is equipped with a buckle 1, which is used to securely fix the labeled items 3 to prevent them from falling out accidentally.

[0033] The working principle in this embodiment of the utility model is as follows:

[0034] When a user places an item 3 with an RFID tag 2 into the groove 8, the antenna 4, under the control of the RFID reader 6, detects the presence of the RFID tag 2 and transmits the signal to the RFID reader 6 via the connecting cable 5. After reading the tag information, the RFID reader 6 transmits the data to the system that processes and stores the data. The system automatically reads the information that "item 3 has entered the identification range." Subsequently, when the user performs the action of "store item 3 in this cabinet," the latch 1 in the groove 8 automatically secures the item 3. At the same time, the system receives a signal that "item 3 has been stored" and displays this result on the display screen 7. To remove item 3, the user simply performs the operation of "remove item 3" on the display screen 7. Upon receiving the instruction, the system will automatically open the latch 1, allowing the user to remove item 3. During the removal process and when item 3 leaves the identification range, the information is identified and recorded by the RFID reader 6 through the antenna 4.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0036] This RFID-based tool cabinet system works as follows: When a user places an item 3 with an RFID tag 2 into the recess 8, the antenna 4 detects the presence of the RFID tag 2 and transmits the signal to the RFID reader 6 via the connecting cable 5. After reading the tag information, the RFID reader 6 transmits the data to the system that processes and stores the data. The system automatically reads the message "Item 3 with RFID tag 2 has entered the identification range." Subsequently, when the user performs the action of "Storing item 3 with RFID tag 2 into this cabinet," the latch 1 in the recess 8 automatically secures the item 3 with RFID tag 2. At the same time, the system receives a signal indicating "Item 3 with RFID tag 2 has been stored" and displays this result on the display screen 7. To retrieve item 3 with RFID tag 2, the user simply performs the operation "Retrieve item 3 with RFID tag 2" on the display screen 7. Upon receiving the command, the system automatically opens the latch 1, allowing the user to retrieve item 3 with RFID tag 2.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. These will not affect the implementation effect of this utility model or the practicality of the patent.
