Description

[0001] DESCRIPTION

[0002] A COMPLIANCE CHECK SYSTEM

[0003] Technical Field

[0004] The present invention relates to a system which enables the relationship between approvals to be identified, compatibility checks to be performed and compatibility between approvals to be maintained by means of unique codes generated with respect to the approvals when the vehicle manufacturers are obtaining system approvals, approvals for parts and components and complete vehicle approvals required to be obtained with respect to whether the produced vehicles comply with the relevant regulations.

[0005] Background of the Invention

[0006] Today, vehicle manufacturers are required to prove the compliance of the vehicles they produce with the regulations of certain authorities and to certify their vehicles. During the application for the relevant certificates, vehicle manufacturers must prepare technical documents for certain parts and components related to the vehicle and acquire approval for the prepared documents. Currently, there are a large number of system approvals, component approvals associated with the said system approvals and complete vehicle approvals that vehicle manufacturers must acquire, and all of the respective approvals must be compatible with each other in terms of technical information, descriptions and annexes.

[0007] For this reason, considering the studies and deficiencies included in the current technique, it is understood that there is a need for a system which enables the relationship between approvals to be identified, compatibility checks to be performed and compatibility between approvals to be maintained by means of an automatically generated unique code.

[0008] The Japanese patent document no. JP2018113000A, an application included in the state of the art, discloses a unique code system used in the checking of spare parts. The invention subject to the said patent document provides a second-hand component management system. A second-hand component management system comprises second-hand component code acquisition means for acquiring a unique code provided on the second-hand component; a second-hand component database for storing second-hand component information including at least any of second-hand component specification information specifying the second-hand component and product information on the product from which the second-hand component has been removed in association with the acquired unique code; and second-hand component information extraction means a server configured to search the second-hand component database by using at least any of the unique codes acquired by the second-hand component code acquisition means and the second-hand component specification information and product information for the product from which the second-hand component was removed, and to output a confirmation of the second-hand component.

[0009] Summary of the Invention

[0010] An object of the present invention is to realize a system which enables the relationship between approvals to be identified, compatibility checks to be performed and compatibility between approvals to be maintained by means of unique codes generated with respect to the approvals when the vehicle manufacturers are obtaining system approvals, approvals for parts and components and complete vehicle approvals required to be obtained with respect to whether the produced vehicles comply with the relevant regulations.

[0019] A system (1) which enables the relationship between approvals to be identified, compatibility checks to be performed and compatibility between approvals to be maintained by means of unique codes generated with respect to the approvals when the vehicle manufacturers are obtaining system approvals, approvals for parts and components and complete vehicle approvals required to be obtained with respect to whether the produced vehicles comply with the relevant regulations comprises; at least one electronic device (2) which is configured to exchange data by using any communication protocol and to run at least one application thereon; at least one application (3) which is run on the electronic device (2) and is configured at least to enable users to upload technical documentation documents to be approved; at least one database (4) which is configured to keep a record of the prepared documents and approval information therein; and at least one server (5) which is configured to establish communication with the electronic device (2) by using any remote communication protocol and to exchange data with the application (3) through this established communication; to manage the database (4) and access the data in the database (4); to generate unique codes for the documents by receiving the said technical documentation documents uploaded through the application (3); to check the codes by receiving the unique code information of the documents associated with the same vehicle and to generate reports by detecting the documents whose codes are not the same.

[0020] The electronic device (2) included in the inventive system (1) is a device in the form of a smartphone, tablet computer, desktop computer or portable computer configured to run at least one application (3) thereon. The said electronic device (2) has speakers for providing audio output, at least one camera capable of taking images, and an input unit in the form of a key or touch screen.

[0021] The application (3) included in the inventive system (1) is run on the electronic device (2) and is configured at least to enable users to upload technical documentation documents to be approved.

[0022] The database (4) included in the inventive system (1) is in communication with the server (5) and is configured to be managed by the server (5). The database (4) is configured to keep a record of the documents to be approved, approval information and unique code information associated with the document therein.

[0023] The server (5) included in the inventive system (1) is configured to establish communication with the electronic device (2) by using any communication protocol included in the state of art and to exchange data with the application (3) through this established communication. The said server (5) is configured to receive technical documentation documents uploaded to the application (3) via the communication established with the electronic device (2) and to generate a unique code for the said documents.
