IC Tag Core Recognition System for Error-Free Connection Verification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing techniques for core identification in multiple core systems are prone to human error and do not effectively detect errors in core connection, especially when the connection location is off, and rely on human selection which can introduce new errors.
Innovation Solution
The use of compact and readable IC tags attached to both ends of a core, with recognition units equipped with antennas for reading and transmitting serial numbers via the core, allowing for remote comparison of serial numbers to accurately identify the core and prevent connection errors.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If identification data is transmitted via the core after connection to check the core, then the core connection can be verified, but when the connecting location is off, no error can be detected
Solution Approach 1:
The identification system is segmented into multiple independent IC tags attached at different locations along the core. Each IC tag contains identification data, allowing the system to verify not only that a connection exists but also to precisely identify which specific segment of the core is connected, thereby detecting off-location connections.
Solution Approach 2:
IC tags are attached to the core before the core is installed or connected. This preliminary attachment ensures that the identification data is already in place and can be immediately verified upon connection, enabling detection of incorrect connection locations without requiring additional setup steps.
2Reliability
If IC tags are attached to both ends of the core for identification, then core identification can be performed, but the selection of the core in reading depends on human power which may cause new human error
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically reads and compares IC tag data from both ends of the core without requiring human intervention for selection. The recognition unit autonomously identifies which IC tags belong to the connected core pair and performs the verification, eliminating human error in core selection while maintaining accurate identification.
Solution Approach 2:
The system reads identification data from IC tags at both ends of the core, compares the data automatically, and provides feedback on whether the connection is correct. This automated feedback loop eliminates the need for human judgment in core selection and provides immediate verification of proper connection.
3Reliability
If multiple check systems are used to prevent human error in core connection, then error prevention can be improved, but considerable man-hours are expended
Solution Approach 1:
The manual mechanical process of visually checking and verifying core connections is replaced with an automated electronic system that reads IC tags using radio frequency communication. This substitution eliminates the need for multiple manual check systems and their associated man-hours while maintaining or improving error prevention capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The core identification and verification system performs its own checking function automatically by reading and comparing IC tag data. This self-verification process replaces multiple manual check systems, significantly reducing the man-hours required for error prevention while maintaining high reliability.

AI summary
An object of the invention is to prevent a human error, greatly reducing man-hours and to securely identify a core. To achieve the object, a request for a serial number is first made via a conductor of a core from a recognition unit that functions as a master to a recognition unit that functions as a slave. Next, the recognition unit as the slave reads a serial number for an IC tag and transmits the serial number via the conductor of the core. The recognition unit as the master receives the serial number transmitted from the recognition unit as the slave and collates the serial number and a serial number stored in an IC tag. It is ascertained by the collation that the conduction of the core is correctly made and it is displayed on a display of the recognition unit as the master and others that no disconnection on the way and no error in selecting an end of wiring are caused.
