The configurations described below can be combined as appropriate. Omissions, substitutions, or modifications of the configurations can be made within the scope of the invention.
[0016] (First embodiment) Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a data reading system according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure. In Fig. 1, the data reading system 100 includes a wireless tag 10, a tag reader device 20, and an information management device 30. The wireless tag 10 is provided under the security management control of the data reading system 100. The tag reader device 20 can acquire data from the wireless tag 10. The tag reader device 20 can also write data to the wireless tag 10. The tag reader device 20 corresponds to the data acquisition device of the present disclosure.
[0017] (Radio tag) The wireless tag 10 includes an antenna 11, a control unit 13, and a power supply unit 14. The control unit 13 includes a communication unit 131 and a memory unit 132. The wireless tag 10 is, for example, an RFID tag. The wireless tag 10 is provided inside a packaging box 1. The packaging box 1 is a box for packaging metal products 2. The packaging box 1 contains the wireless tag 10 and the metal products 2.
[0018] The antenna 11 is a transmitting and receiving antenna. That is, the antenna 11 functions as both a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna. For example, the inverted F antenna structure described in Japanese Patent No. 4990858 can be applied to the antenna 11. In this case, the antenna 11 can communicate even when a metal member is nearby.
[0019] The communication unit 131 can receive data wirelessly via the antenna 11. The communication unit 131 can transmit data wirelessly via the antenna 11.
[0020] The storage unit 132 stores identification information 1320 for identifying the wireless tag 10. The data stored in the storage unit 132 can be read out.
[0021] The power supply unit 14 supplies power to each unit in the wireless tag 10. The power supply unit 14 is, for example, a primary battery. Because power is supplied from the power supply unit 14, the wireless tag 10 can operate the communication unit 131 and can write and read data to and from the memory unit 132.
[0022] When a data read signal is transmitted from tag reader device 20, wireless tag 10 reads the data stored in memory unit 132 and transmits it to tag reader device 20. At this time, communication unit 131 of wireless tag 10 transmits identification information to tag reader device 20.
[0023] (tag reader device) The tag reader device 20 includes an antenna 21, a control unit 22, and a power supply unit 23.
[0024] The antenna 21 is a transmitting and receiving antenna, that is, the antenna 21 functions as both a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna.
[0025] The control unit 22 has a communication unit 221, a storage unit 222, a reading unit 223, and a writing unit 224. The communication unit 221 can wirelessly transmit and receive data to and from the wireless tag 10 via the antenna 21. The communication unit 221 can also transmit and receive data to and from the information management device 30 via the network NW. The tag reader device 20 can transmit identification information of the wireless tag 10 to the information management device 30.
[0026] The storage unit 222 stores data acquired by the communication unit 221. The storage unit 222 stores identification information acquired by the communication unit 221. The storage unit 222 also stores various data necessary for the operation of the tag reader device 20.
[0027] The reading unit 223 can receive data transmitted from the wireless tag 10 using the antenna 21 and the communication unit 221, and can read data stored in the wireless tag 10. This allows the tag reader device 20 to acquire data from the wireless tag 10.
[0028] The reading unit 223 can simultaneously perform wireless communication with a plurality of wireless tags 10 and can simultaneously acquire identification information from a plurality of wireless tags 10. Therefore, the tag reader device 20 can acquire the identification information from a plurality of wireless tags 10 in a relatively short time. The tag reader device 20 transmits the identification information to the information management device 30.
[0029] The writing unit 224 can transmit data to the wireless tag 10 using the antenna 21 and the communication unit 221. This allows the tag reader device 20 to write data to the wireless tag 10.
[0030] The power supply unit 23 supplies power to each unit in the tag reader device 20. The power supply unit 23 is, for example, a primary battery.
[0031] (Information management device) The information management device 30 includes a communication unit 31, a storage unit 32, a control unit 33, and a power supply unit 34. The communication unit 31 can transmit and receive data to and from the tag reader device 20 via the network NW. The information management device 30 may be provided near the tag reader device 20, or may be provided in a remote location.
[0032] The memory unit 32 stores data acquired by the tag reader device 20 from the wireless tag 10. The memory unit 32 corresponds to the acquired data memory unit of the present disclosure. The control unit 33 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU), a read-only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), an input interface, and an output interface (not shown). The CPU, ROM, and RAM (not shown) are connected via an internal bus. The ROM stores programs such as BIOS. The CPU realizes various functions by executing programs stored in the ROM or the memory unit 32 while using the RAM as a work area. The control unit 33 can perform editing, such as classification and rearrangement, on the data stored in the memory unit 32. The power supply unit 34 supplies power to each unit of the information management device 30.
[0033] (Packing box) FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the appearance of the packaging box 1. The packaging box 1 is a box made of a non-metal material such as paper. The packaging box 1 can contain a metal product 2. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the state in which the metal product 2 is contained inside the packaging box 1. In this example, the metal product 2 is a bearing. A wireless tag 10 is provided on the inner surface of the packaging box 1. Inside the packaging box 1, the wireless tag 10 is provided near the metal product 2. The identification information 1320 (see FIG. 1) stored in the memory unit 132 of the wireless tag 10 also serves as information for identifying the metal product 2.
[0034] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a procedure for installing a wireless tag 10 and a metal product 2 in a packaging box 1. Referring to FIG. 3, the packaging box 1 includes an upper surface portion 1um having areas in the X-axis and Y-axis directions, a lower surface portion 1dm that faces the upper surface portion 1um in the Z-axis direction, a side surface portion 1sf provided on the front surface in the X-axis direction in the figure, and three other side surface portions 1sm. The upper side (Z-axis direction side) of each side surface portion 1sm is connected to the upper surface portion 1um, and the lower edge 1fd of each side surface portion 1sm is connected to the lower surface portion 1dm. The upper side (Z-axis direction side) of each side surface portion 1sf is connected to the upper surface portion 1um. The side surface portions 1sf can be moved in the direction of arrow Ya to open and close. That is, the lower edge 1fd of each side surface portion 1sf can be moved away from or toward the lower surface portion 1dm. The side surface portions 1sf correspond to the movable side surface portions of the present disclosure.
[0035] When the bottom edge 1fd of the side surface portion 1sf is moved away from the bottom surface portion 1dm, the side surface portion 1sf opens as shown in Fig. 3. When the side surface portion 1sf is open, it is possible to store metal products 2. That is, as shown by the arrow Yb, metal products 2 can be stored in the interior 1in of the packaging box 1. Furthermore, metal products 2 stored in the interior 1in of the packaging box 1 can be removed in the opposite direction of the arrow Yb. That is, by opening and closing the side surface portion 1sf, it is possible to put metal products 2 in and take them out of the interior 1in of the packaging box 1.
[0036] Furthermore, a wireless tag 10 can be provided on the surface of the side surface portion 1sf facing the interior 1in. For example, the wireless tag 10 can be attached to the surface of the side surface portion 1sf facing the interior 1in using double-sided tape or the like. By providing the wireless tag 10 on the surface of the side surface portion 1sf facing the interior 1in, storing the metal product 2 in the interior 1in of the packaging box 1, and then closing the side surface portion 1sf, the state shown in FIG. 2 is achieved. To maintain the state shown in FIG. 2, the bottom edge 1fd and the bottom surface portion 1dm of the side surface portion 1sf may be fastened together with adhesive or adhesive tape. To clearly indicate that the wireless tag 10 is attached to the surface of the side surface portion 1sf facing the interior 1in, a mark may be provided on the outside of the side surface portion 1sf, i.e., on the outer surface of the packaging box 1. The mark may be the trademark of the manufacturer of the metal product 2.
[0037] As shown in FIG. 2, a packing box 1 containing metal products 2 can be stacked on top of other packing boxes in order. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a case where multiple packing boxes are stacked. FIG. 4 shows a case where six boxes, from packing box 1a to packing box 1f, are stacked in the Z-axis direction. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, packing boxes 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, and 1f contain metal products 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, and 2f. In addition, wireless tags 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, 10e, and 10f are provided inside packing boxes 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, and 1f. In FIG. 4, packing box 1b is placed on top of packing box 1a as indicated by arrow Y11, and then packing box 1c is placed on top of packing box 1b as indicated by arrow Y12. Furthermore, as shown by arrow Y13, packing box 1d is placed on top of packing box 1c, as shown by arrow Y14, packing box 1e is placed on top of packing box 1d, and as shown by arrow Y15, packing box 1f is placed on top of packing box 1e.
[0038] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a state in which six packing boxes 1a to 1f are stacked. The state shown in FIG. 5 shows a state in which packing boxes 1a to 1f are placed adjacent to one another. The wireless tags 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, 10e, and 10f inside the packing boxes 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, and 1f containing metal products 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, and 2f are facing the same direction. In the state shown in FIG. 5, the top surface 1um or bottom surface 1dm (see FIGS. 2 and 3) of each packing box is an adjacent surface adjacent to another packing box. That is, each packing box 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, and 1f has an adjacent surface adjacent to another packing box and a side surface other than the adjacent surface.
[0039] When multiple wireless tags 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, 10e, and 10f are facing the same direction, tag reader device 20 can collectively acquire the identification information stored in each of the multiple wireless tags. In other words, when tag reader device 20 acquires data from wireless tags 10 of multiple packaging boxes, tag reader device 20 can efficiently acquire data from multiple wireless tags 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, 10e, and 10f by placing tag reader device 20 in a position facing side surface 1sf that faces the same direction. Thus, when side surface 1sf is facing the same direction, tag reader device 20 can efficiently acquire data from multiple wireless tags 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, 10e, and 10f. Therefore, packaging boxes may be placed adjacent to each other in the Y-axis direction with their side surfaces facing downward in FIG. 5 .
[0040] 6 is a diagram illustrating the range of antenna directivity of a wireless tag, and shows a wireless tag 10a as a representative of multiple wireless tags.
[0041] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram showing the internal arrangement of the packaging box 1a. As shown in FIG. 6, the wireless tag 10a is provided between the metal product 2a contained in the packaging box 1a and the side surface 1sf. The wireless tag 10a transmits data by using the metal product 2a contained in the same packaging box 1a as an antenna. At this time, the range of the dashed line H in FIG. 6 is the range of antenna directivity. The distance D in FIG. 6 is the maximum distance over which data can be received from the wireless tag 10a. Similarly, wireless tags other than the wireless tag 10a transmit data by using a metal product contained in the same packaging box as an antenna. By transmitting data using a metal product as an antenna, the distance D over which data can be received can be made relatively long, and the tag reader device 20 can acquire data efficiently.
[0042] 1, the identification information acquired from each wireless tag 10 is stored in the storage unit 222 and then sent to the information management device 30 via the network NW. The information management device 30 stores the identification information in the storage unit 32. The control unit 33 can perform editing such as classification and rearrangement of the data stored in the storage unit 32.
[0043] (Example of operation) 7 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the data reading system 100 according to the first embodiment.
[0044] 7, steps S101 to S103 show an example of the operation of the wireless tag 10, steps S201 to S204 show an example of the operation of the tag reader device 20, and steps S301 to S302 show an example of the operation of the information management device 30. In FIG.
[0045] 7, when a data read signal is transmitted from tag reader device 20 to wireless tag 10 (step S201), wireless tag 10 receives the read signal (step S101). Then, wireless tag 10 reads out the identification information stored in memory unit 132 (step S102). Wireless tag 10 transmits the identification information (step S103), and tag reader device 20 receives it (step S202).
[0046] The tag reader device 20 stores the received identification information in the storage unit 222 (step S203). Thereafter, the tag reader device 20 transmits the identification information (step S204), and the information management device 30 receives it (step S301). The information management device 30 stores the received identification information in the storage unit 32 (step S302). Through the above processing, the information management device 30 can acquire the identification information and perform editing, such as classification and rearrangement, on the data stored in the storage unit 32. By utilizing the data stored in the storage unit 32, it is possible to manage the inventory quantity of metal products before delivery and the history of delivered metal products. By using the identification information of the wireless tag 10 attached to the packaging box 1 used in the data reading system 100, it is possible to manage the inventory quantity and storage location of metal products after delivery.
[0047] Note that identification information may be written to the wireless tags of multiple packaging boxes facing the same direction as shown in Fig. 5. In this case, writing to storage unit 132 can be performed in step S102 of Fig. 7. As shown in Fig. 5, multiple packaging boxes are placed adjacent to each other so that the side surfaces on which the wireless tags are provided face the same direction, and tag reader device 20 writes identification information to the wireless tags in this state. This allows efficient writing to multiple wireless tags.
[0048] (Second embodiment) The wireless tag 10 attached to the packaging box 1 used in the data reading system 100 can be removed from the packaging box 1. The wireless tag 10 removed from the packaging box 1 can be attached to equipment to which metal products are attached and reused for maintaining and managing the equipment. In other words, by attaching the removed wireless tag to equipment to which metal products are attached, an equipment maintenance management system can be realized for maintaining and managing the equipment. For example, by attaching the wireless tag 10 removed from the packaging box 1 near a bearing, the maintenance history and operation history of the bearing can be managed. In other words, it can be managed which part of which equipment started operation and when.
[0049] (Examples of items under maintenance management) Fig. 8 is a diagram showing an example of equipment that is a maintenance management target of the equipment maintenance management system 100a. Fig. 8 is a diagram showing a mechanical device 200 that is a maintenance management target of the equipment maintenance management system 100a. Fig. 9 is a perspective view showing an example of a mechanical part 40 in Fig. 8.
[0050] 8, the machine 200 is, for example, a roller conveyor that transports industrial products (not shown) along a transport direction. The machine 200 includes a pair of support bases 70 and a plurality of roller devices 60. In this embodiment, the number of roller devices 60 is 10, but is not limited to this number.
[0051] The pair of support bases 70 support a plurality of roller devices. The pair of support bases 70 are rectangular parallelepiped shapes that extend in the direction of arrow Yd, which is the conveying direction of industrial products.
[0052] The roller device 60 includes a roller member 50, a pair of mechanical components 40, and a shaft member 41. The mechanical components 40 are the subject of maintenance management in the present disclosure. The shaft member 41 has a cylindrical shape extending along a central axis.
[0053] The roller member 50 has a cylindrical shape and is disposed on the circumferential surface of the shaft member 41, and rotates integrally with the shaft member 41. Both ends of the shaft member 41 are exposed from the roller member 50.
[0054] The pair of mechanical parts supports the roller member 50 so as to be rotatable relative to one another. Specifically, the pair of mechanical parts supports both ends of the shaft member so as to be rotatable relative to one another. The mechanical parts 40 are, for example, plummer blocks.
[0055] 8, tag reader device 20 is provided near mechanical device 200. Tag reader device 20 is provided in a position where it can transmit and receive signals to and from wireless tag 10. Tag reader device 20 is fixed to, for example, the ceiling, wall, or pillar of the room in which mechanical device 200 is installed.
[0056] As shown in Fig. 9, the mechanical component 40 has a bearing 42 and holes 44a and 44b. An end of a shaft member 41 of a roller member 50 is inserted into a through hole 43 of the bearing 42. The bearing 42 rotatably supports the shaft member 41. The mechanical component 40 is fixed to a support base 70 (see Fig. 8) by, for example, bolts (not shown). The bolts (not shown) pass through, for example, the holes 44a and 44b and are inserted into screw holes in the support base 70.
[0057] Further, the mechanical component 40 is provided with a wireless tag 10. The wireless tag 10 is provided, for example, below the bearing 42. The wireless tag 10 is attached to the surface of the mechanical component 40 with, for example, adhesive tape or double-sided tape. The identification information 1320 stored in the memory unit 132 in the wireless tag 10 is transmitted to the tag reader device 20. The tag reader device 20 may transmit the received identification information 1320 to the information management device 30.
[0058] In the example shown in FIG. 8 , one tag reader device 20 is provided for one mechanical device 200. One mechanical device 200 has ten roller members 50, and a wireless tag 10 is attached to each of a total of 20 mechanical components 40 provided at both ends of each roller member 50. In this example, all of the wireless tags 10 of the 20 mechanical components 40 are provided within the communication range of the tag reader device 20. Therefore, the tag reader device 20 can acquire identification information from each of the 20 wireless tags 10 provided on the 20 mechanical components 40. By editing the acquired identification information, such as by classifying or sorting, the mechanical device 200 including the mechanical components 40 can be maintained and managed. For example, the information management device 30 may edit the acquired identification information 1320, such as by classifying or sorting.
[0059] It is also possible to provide a wireless tag 10 on one of the mechanical components 40 at both ends of the roller member 50, and not provide a wireless tag 10 on the other mechanical component 40. Wireless tags 10 may be provided on only some of the multiple mechanical components 40 provided in the mechanical device 200, and these may be subject to maintenance management.
[0060] (Third embodiment) In the equipment maintenance management system 100a, the wireless tag 10 may be provided with a temperature sensor function. By providing a temperature sensor in the mechanical component 40, it is possible to acquire temperature information of the mechanical component 40. By periodically acquiring the maintenance history and temperature information of the mechanical component 40, it is possible to monitor temperature changes of the mechanical component 40. For example, by providing a wireless tag with a temperature sensor function near the bearing 42 shown in FIG. 9, it is possible to monitor the bearing 42. If the temperature of the bearing 42 reaches an abnormal value, it is possible to detect a malfunction of the bearing 42 in advance and to appropriately set the timing of maintenance.
[0061] The temperature sensor of each wireless tag 10 detects the temperature, for example, at a predetermined cycle. For example, the temperature sensor detects the temperature once a day at a set time. Alternatively, the temperature sensor may detect the temperature at predetermined intervals. For example, the temperature sensor may detect the temperature every hour, every 30 minutes, every minute, or every 30 seconds.
[0062] It is preferable that the temperature data be stored in the memory unit 132 of the wireless tag 10 and transmitted in association with the identification information. The identification information and temperature data may be transmitted to the tag reader device 20 each time the wireless tag 10 detects a temperature, or may be transmitted collectively to the tag reader device 20 when the amount of data stored in the memory unit 132 of the wireless tag 10 reaches a predetermined amount. In the former case, the monitoring process can be performed more quickly. In the latter case, transmitting the data collectively can reduce the consumption of the power supply unit 14. As described above, the monitoring system can obtain temperature data for each monitoring target identified by the obtained identification information and monitor for abnormalities in the temperature data.
