Description

本発明は、例えば集配所などを含む出荷先から小売店などの入荷先まで温度管理が必要な商品を保冷車で運送する物流管理システムに関する。   The present invention relates to a physical distribution management system for transporting goods requiring temperature management from a shipping destination including a collection place to a receiving destination such as a retail store by a cold car.

出荷元(配送元)、入荷先(配送先)およびこれらの間をつなぐ配送車からなる物流システムにおいて、出荷元および入荷先では通常温度管理がほぼ完ぺきに行なわれている。また、生鮮食品などにあっては配送車に保冷車を用いることで、物流システム全体で、一定温度以下で生鮮食料品を管理するようにしている。   In a distribution system comprising a shipping source (delivery source), a receiving destination (delivery destination), and a delivery vehicle that connects between them, the shipping source and the receiving destination usually perform temperature management almost perfectly. In addition, in the case of fresh foods, the use of a cold car as a delivery vehicle allows the whole distribution system to manage fresh foods at a certain temperature or lower.

しかしながら、保冷車による配送過程では、荷物の積み下ろしの際のドアの開閉や道路の渋滞による配送時間超過などによって、保冷車内の温度が高くなり、食料品の鮮度が落ちるなどの問題が頻繁に生じている。   However, in the delivery process with a cold truck, problems such as the temperature inside the cold truck becoming high and the freshness of the foodstuffs frequently occur due to the opening and closing of doors when loading and unloading luggage and the delivery time exceeding due to road congestion. ing.

上記の問題を解消するため、特許文献1では配送車全体を冷却するのではなく、生鮮食料品などを小分けして収納できる保冷庫を用意し、この保冷庫に温度センサを取付け、保冷庫内の温度を表示することで異常を検知するようにしている。   In order to solve the above problem, Patent Document 1 does not cool the entire delivery vehicle, but prepares a cool box that can store fresh foods and the like, and attaches a temperature sensor to the cool box, The abnormality is detected by displaying the temperature.

特に特許文献1では、消費関連情報を取得する手段、具体的に保冷庫を冷却する冷却機を駆動するバッテリの充電量や充電回数の情報を管理センタが取得し、これらの情報に基づき、バッテリの交換時期を知らせることで、搬送中にバッテリの充電不足に陥らないようにしている。   In particular, in Patent Document 1, the management center acquires means for acquiring consumption-related information, specifically, information on the amount of charge and the number of times of charging of the battery that drives the cooler that cools the cool box, and based on these information, the battery By notifying the replacement time of the battery, the battery will not be insufficiently charged during transportation.

特許文献1にあっては、個々の保冷庫に表示部を設け、この表示部に保冷庫内の温度、バッテリ交換の要・不要を表示し、これをドライバが確認して対処するシステムになっている。しかしながら、全ての保冷庫に消費関連情報取得手段、記憶手段及び表示手段などを設けるのはコストが膨大になる。更にドライバの負担も大きくなる。   In Patent Document 1, a display unit is provided in each cool box, and the temperature in the cool box and the necessity / unnecessity of battery replacement are displayed on the display unit. ing. However, it is very expensive to provide consumption related information acquisition means, storage means, display means, etc. in all the cold storages. In addition, the burden on the driver increases.

上記の特許文献1の問題を解消するために特許文献2が提案されている。この特許文献2では、保冷容器(保冷庫)の真空断熱パネルの一部に凹部を設け、この凹部内に温度センサ、バッテリの他に通信部を設け、通信部を介して内部温度を管理センタに送信し、管理センタで一括して全ての保冷容器の管理を行うようにしている。
Patent Document 2 has been proposed in order to solve the above-described problem of Patent Document 1. In Patent Document 2, a recess is provided in a part of a vacuum heat insulation panel of a cold storage container (cool storage), a temperature sensor and a communication unit are provided in addition to the battery in the recess, and the internal temperature is controlled via the communication unit. The management center manages all the cold storage containers at once.

特開2003−322459号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-322459 特開2012−171733号公報JP 2012-171733 A

上記した特許文献1、2の何れも、物流システムのうちの配送車での配送中の不具合を解消するものであり、出荷元と配送車との間、配送車と入荷先との間の商品の受渡しは、当事者間で行われていてトータルで管理していない。   Both of Patent Documents 1 and 2 described above are intended to eliminate problems during delivery with a delivery vehicle in the distribution system, and products between the shipping source and the delivery vehicle, and between the delivery vehicle and the arrival destination. Is delivered between the parties and is not managed in total.

そのため、出荷元から配送途中の管理は問題がなく、一部の入荷先の温度管理に不具合が生じた場合でも、他の入荷先に引渡した同一ロット製品全部を破棄しなければならない事態、或いは、出荷元(製造元)での1つのロットに温度管理に不具合があり、搬送中の温度管理に問題がなかった場合であっても、入荷先の別ロットの製品まで廃棄しなければならない事態も生じている。   Therefore, there is no problem in the management during delivery from the shipper, and even if the temperature management of some destinations has a problem, all the same lot products delivered to other destinations must be discarded, or Even if there is a problem with temperature management in one lot at the shipping source (manufacturer) and there is no problem with temperature management during transportation, there is a situation where it is necessary to dispose of the product in another lot at the destination. Has occurred.

また、出荷元と配送車との間及び配送車と入荷先との間の商品の受渡しの前後における責任の所在があやふやな為、不都合が生じた後の物流システムの回復に時間がかかってしまう。   In addition, it takes time to recover the logistics system after inconveniences because the responsibility is unclear before and after the delivery of goods between the shipping source and the delivery vehicle and between the delivery vehicle and the delivery destination. .

特に、従来の管理システムでは配送中に生鮮食品の鮮度低下などの不都合が起きた場合の対処をドライバに任せているため、却って被害が大きくなることもある。   In particular, the conventional management system leaves the driver to deal with inconveniences such as a drop in the freshness of fresh food during delivery, so the damage may increase.

本発明に係る物流システムは、保冷を必要とする商品の出荷、保冷車による配送および入荷までを管理センタが備えるコンピュータによって一括管理する物流管理システムである。 The physical distribution system according to the present invention is a physical distribution management system that collectively manages, through a computer provided in the management center, the shipment of merchandise requiring cold storage, delivery by cold storage vehicles, and arrival of goods.

特に、前記保冷車は前記管理センタとの間での送受信を行う送受信手段と、保冷車内の温度を測定する通信機能付き温度センサを備える。   In particular, the cold car includes a transmission / reception means for transmitting / receiving data to / from the management center and a temperature sensor with a communication function for measuring the temperature in the cold car.

また、前記管理センタのコンピュータは記憶部と、演算部と通信部を備え、 前記記憶部には少なくとも、個々の保冷車ごとの積載商品、出荷元、入荷先、配送スケジュールが記憶され、前記演算部では少なくとも、保冷車内の経時的温度変化に基づいて商品の鮮度状態を演算し、前記通信部は少なくとも、前記保冷車の送受信手段から配送できる商品である旨の情報を受信した場合に、当該保冷車の送受信手段に配送開始の指示を送信し、配送中に保冷状態の異常を検出した場合に、当該保冷車の送受信手段にマニュアルに従った指示を送信し、前記入荷先の送受信手段から受入れることができる商品である旨の情報を受信した場合に、当該保冷車の送受信手段に商品受渡しの指示を送信する。   The computer of the management center includes a storage unit, a calculation unit, and a communication unit, and the storage unit stores at least a loaded product, a shipping source, a receiving destination, and a delivery schedule for each cold storage vehicle. The unit calculates at least the freshness state of the product based on the temperature change with time in the cold car, and the communication unit receives at least information indicating that the product can be delivered from the transmission / reception means of the cold car. An instruction to start delivery is transmitted to the transmission / reception means of the cold car, and when an abnormality in the cold state is detected during delivery, an instruction according to the manual is transmitted to the transmission / reception means of the cold car, and the transmission / reception means of the arrival destination When information indicating that the product is acceptable can be received, a product delivery instruction is transmitted to the transmission / reception means of the cold truck.

前記配送できる商品であるか否かの判断は、当該商品配送するドライバが商品の外観上傷がないかなど、一見して判断できる項目を予め管理センタが決めておき、この項目に沿って判断する。   Whether or not the product is deliverable is determined by the management center in advance by determining items that can be judged at a glance, such as whether the driver for delivering the product is damaged in appearance or not. To do.

前記受入れることができる商品であるか否かの判断は、入荷先(受入先)の担当者の判断による。但し、管理センタが予め入荷先の担当者に判断項目を例示しておくことで、受渡しをスムーズに行える。   The determination of whether or not the product is acceptable is based on the determination of the person in charge at the arrival destination (receiving destination). However, delivery can be performed smoothly by having the management center exemplify the determination items in advance for the person in charge at the arrival destination.

商品を保冷容器などの収納容器に入れて配送する場合には、前記保冷車に設けた温度センサとは別に、商品収納容器に内部の温度を測定する通信機能付き温度センサを設けてもよい。   When a product is delivered in a storage container such as a cold storage container, a temperature sensor with a communication function for measuring the internal temperature may be provided in the product storage container in addition to the temperature sensor provided in the cold storage vehicle.

前記保冷車内の温度を測定する温度センサ及び商品収納容器に内部の温度を測定する温度センサは何れも測定したデータを送信する通信機能を備えている。通信機能としては、クラウド上の管理センタのコンピュータに送信するものでもよいが、Bluetooth(登録商標)などの短距離通信とし、温度センサで測定したデータを保冷車の送受信手段、例えばドライバが保有するスマートホンなどに送信し、このスマートホンから管理センタのコンピュータに送信するようにしてもよい。Bluetooth(登録商標)などの短距離通信とすることで、電力消費を抑えることができる。   Both the temperature sensor for measuring the temperature inside the cold car and the temperature sensor for measuring the temperature inside the product storage container have a communication function for transmitting the measured data. As a communication function, it may be transmitted to a computer in a management center on the cloud, but it is short-range communication such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), and data measured by a temperature sensor is held by a transmission / reception unit of a cold car, for example, a driver. You may make it transmit to a smart phone etc., and you may make it transmit to the computer of a management center from this smart phone. By using short-range communication such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), power consumption can be suppressed.

本発明によれば、管理センタが、保冷車の送受信手段から配送できる商品である旨の情報を受信した場合に、当該保冷車の送受信手段に配送開始の指示を送信し、また管理センタが、入荷先の送受信手段から受入れることができる商品である旨の情報を受信した場合に、当該保冷車の送受信手段に商品受渡しの指示を送信するため、受渡しの際の管理責任に空白が生じることがなく、システム全体が効率良く運営できる。   According to the present invention, when the management center receives information indicating that the product is a product that can be delivered from the transmission / reception unit of the cold car, the management center transmits an instruction to start delivery to the transmission / reception unit of the cold car, When information indicating that the product can be received from the receiving / transmission means of the arrival destination is received, an instruction for delivery of the product is transmitted to the transmission / reception means of the cold truck, so there may be a gap in management responsibility at the time of delivery. The entire system can be operated efficiently.

出荷元から入荷先に至るまでの間に、商品の鮮度低下が生じた場合、どの時点で鮮度低下が生じたか判断することができ、廃棄しなくてもよい商品を廃棄したり、逆に廃棄しなければならない商品をそのまま小売り販売してしまうなどの事故を防ぐことができる。   If the freshness of the product is reduced between the shipper and the arrival destination, it can be determined at which point the freshness has been reduced. Products that do not need to be discarded can be discarded or conversely discarded It is possible to prevent accidents such as retail sales of products that must be done.

特に、商品収納容器を用意し、この商品収納容器に保冷車内の温度を測定する温度センサとは別の温度センサ設け、それぞれの温度センサからのデータを用いて商品管理を行うことで、きめ細やかな鮮度維持管理ができる。   In particular, by preparing a product storage container, providing a temperature sensor in the product storage container that is different from the temperature sensor that measures the temperature inside the cold storage vehicle, and managing the product using data from each temperature sensor, it is possible to meticulously Can maintain and maintain freshness.

また、万一配送中に商品の鮮度低下などの問題が生じた場合でも、管理センタはリアルタイムでその事態を把握し、且つマニュアルに沿った適切な指示をドライバに遅滞なく指示するため、その時点での最善な処理を行える。   In addition, even if a problem such as a drop in the freshness of the product occurs during delivery, the management center will grasp the situation in real time and give the driver appropriate instructions according to the manual without delay. The best processing can be done.

本発明に係る物流管理システムの全体構成図。1 is an overall configuration diagram of a physical distribution management system according to the present invention. 物流管理システムを構成する管理センタのコンピュータの説明図Illustration of the computer in the management center that makes up the logistics management system 管理センタを中心としたフロー図Flow diagram centered on the management center 別実施例を示す保冷車の拡大図Enlarged view of a cold truck showing another embodiment

図1に示す物流管理システムは、インターネットなどのネットワーク1、このネットワーク1に接続される管理センタのコンピュータ2、出荷元から入荷先へ商品を配送する保冷車3、保冷車3内の温度を測定するとともに測定したデータをネットワーク1を介して前記管理センタのコンピュータ2に送信する通信機能付き温度センサ4、ネットワーク1を介して前記管理センタのコンピュータ2との間で送受信が可能な保冷車3に付帯する送受信手段5(例えばドライバが所有するスマートホン)、ネットワーク1を介して前記管理センタのコンピュータ2との間で送受信が可能な入荷先の送受信手段6(例えば入荷先担当者が所有するスマートホン)からなる。   The distribution management system shown in FIG. 1 measures the temperature in a network 1 such as the Internet, a computer 2 of a management center connected to the network 1, a cold truck 3 for delivering goods from a shipping source to a receiving destination, and a cold truck 3 And a temperature sensor 4 with a communication function for transmitting measured data to the computer 2 of the management center via the network 1, and a cold storage vehicle 3 capable of transmitting and receiving data to and from the computer 2 of the management center via the network 1. Accompanying transmission / reception means 5 (for example, a smart phone owned by a driver), receiving destination transmission / reception means 6 (for example, a smart owned by a person in charge of the receiving destination) capable of transmitting / receiving to / from the computer 2 of the management center via the network 1 Hong).

前記管理センタのコンピュータ2は、図2に示すように、記憶部(RAM、ROM)、演算部(CPU)、通信部、キーボードやマウスなどの入力部及び液晶表示装置などの表示部から構成され、これら構成要素がバスで接続されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the management center computer 2 includes a storage unit (RAM, ROM), a calculation unit (CPU), a communication unit, an input unit such as a keyboard and a mouse, and a display unit such as a liquid crystal display device. These components are connected by a bus.

前記記憶部には、保冷車ごとの積載商品の詳細が記憶されている。このように保冷車を1単位として商品を管理することで、生鮮食品の鮮度低下などの事故が生じた場合でも、当該保冷車のみの商品を廃棄すればよく、無駄がなくなる。尚、後述するように複数の保冷庫を保冷車に搭載し、保冷庫毎に温度管理を行う場合には、更に無駄がなくなる。   The storage unit stores the details of the loaded goods for each cold car. In this way, by managing the product with the cold car as one unit, even if an accident such as a drop in the freshness of fresh food occurs, it is only necessary to discard the product of the cold car, and there is no waste. As will be described later, when a plurality of cold storage units are mounted on a cold storage vehicle and temperature management is performed for each of the cold storage units, further waste is eliminated.

また前記記憶部には、商品毎の出荷元、入荷先を含めた配送スケジュールが記憶されている。管理センタでは渋滞などの情報に基づき配送スケジュールを変更し、それを保冷車3の送受信手段5に送信することで、効率のよい配送を行うことができる。   The storage unit stores a delivery schedule including a shipping source and a receiving destination for each product. In the management center, the delivery schedule is changed based on information such as traffic jams, and the delivery schedule is transmitted to the transmission / reception means 5 of the cool truck 3, whereby efficient delivery can be performed.

また前記記憶部には、商品毎の鮮度許容閾値も記憶している。この閾値は商品の品種毎、例えば生鮮食料品でも卵と野菜毎に異なる。   The storage unit also stores a freshness tolerance threshold for each product. This threshold value is different for each kind of product, for example, fresh food, for each egg and vegetable.

演算部では、配送開始からの時間と温度との履歴グラフに基づき、鮮度劣化値を計算する。具体的には商品の種類毎に基準温度(例えば10℃)を設定し、この基準温度を越えた線の下側面積(図のハッチングの部分)を積分し、この下側面積の合計値が前記閾値を越えた場合に、管理センタから保冷車3の送受信手段5に廃棄の指示を送信する。   The calculation unit calculates a freshness deterioration value based on a history graph of time and temperature from the start of delivery. Specifically, a reference temperature (for example, 10 ° C.) is set for each type of product, and the lower area (hatched portion in the figure) of the line exceeding the reference temperature is integrated. When the threshold value is exceeded, a disposal instruction is transmitted from the management center to the transmission / reception means 5 of the cool truck 3.

廃棄の指示を徹底するため、廃棄しなければならないと判断された商品に廃棄シールを貼ることをドライバに指示し、この廃棄シールが貼られたことを管理センタが保冷車3の送受信手段5を介して画像認識できた後に、次の指示を出すようにすることが考えられる。   In order to ensure thorough disposal instructions, the driver is instructed to affix a disposal sticker to a product that has been determined to be discarded. It is conceivable to issue the next instruction after the image is recognized through the network.

尚、鮮度管理方法としては、管理センタは常時保冷車3内の温度を監視しているので、基準温度よりも若干低めの温度(準基準温度:例えば9℃)を設定し、この温度に到達した時点で、管理センタから保冷車3の送受信手段5に温度を下げる指示を送信するのが好ましい。   As a freshness management method, since the management center constantly monitors the temperature in the cold insulated vehicle 3, a temperature slightly lower than the reference temperature (semi-reference temperature: 9 ° C., for example) is set, and this temperature is reached. At that time, it is preferable to send an instruction to lower the temperature from the management center to the transmission / reception means 5 of the cold-storage vehicle 3.

次に、図3に基づき配送開始から配送終了までの典型的な流れを説明する。先ず、図1の出荷元の倉庫内に保冷車3が位置したことをGPSを介して管理センタのコンピュータ2が感知したら、管理がスタートする。   Next, a typical flow from the start of delivery to the end of delivery will be described with reference to FIG. First, when the computer 2 of the management center senses that the cold car 3 is located in the warehouse of the shipping source in FIG. 1, the management starts.

管理スタートと同時に通信機能付き温度センサ4からのデータを管理センタのコンピュータ2が受信する。この後、保冷車3のドライバが配送商品を確認し、商品の種類、数量、外観上の問題など定められた項目をチェックし、問題がなければその旨を送受信手段5からネットワーク1を介して管理センタのコンピュータ2に送信する。   Simultaneously with the start of management, the computer 2 of the management center receives data from the temperature sensor 4 with a communication function. After this, the driver of the cool truck 3 confirms the delivered product, checks predetermined items such as the type, quantity, and appearance problem of the product, and if there is no problem, notifies the fact from the transmission / reception means 5 via the network 1. It transmits to the computer 2 of the management center.

問題がない旨の通知を受けると、管理センタのコンピュータ2は保冷車3の送受信手段5に配送開始の指示を送信する。この時点以降の商品管理責任は配送会社に移行する。   When the notification that there is no problem is received, the computer 2 of the management center transmits an instruction to start delivery to the transmission / reception means 5 of the cool truck 3. Product management responsibility after this point is transferred to the delivery company.

配送開始から入荷先に到着するまでは、管理センタは温度センサ4からのデータを常時受信し、無駄な電力を消費することなく且つ鮮度を維持できる最適な条件で保冷車内の温度管理を行うための指示をドライバに送信する。   The management center always receives data from the temperature sensor 4 from the start of delivery until it arrives at the arrival destination, and performs temperature management in the cold storage vehicle under optimal conditions that can maintain freshness without consuming unnecessary power. Is sent to the driver.

入荷先に到着した後は、入荷先の担当者が商品を受入れることができるかをチェックし、入荷先の送受信手段6からの受入可の情報を管理センタのコンピュータ2が受信すると、保冷車3の送受信手段5に商品引渡しの指示を送信する。この時点以降の商品管理責任は入荷先に移行する。   After arriving at the arrival destination, the person in charge at the arrival destination checks whether or not the goods can be received, and when the computer 2 of the management center receives the information indicating that the goods can be received from the receiving / receiving means 6 at the arrival destination, The product delivery instruction is transmitted to the transmission / reception means 5. Responsibility for merchandise management after this point shifts to the destination.

管理センタは上記の他に付加的な工程管理やドライバ管理を行うことができる。工程管理としては、季節要因を考慮し、夏季には扉の開閉回数および1回の荷降ろし(荷積み)時間をドライバに指示することが可能である。   The management center can perform additional process management and driver management in addition to the above. As process management, in consideration of seasonal factors, it is possible to instruct the driver of the number of times of opening and closing the door and the time of unloading (loading) once in summer.

また、ドライバ管理としては個々のドライバ毎に荷降ろし(荷積み)に要する時間、扉の開閉回数が個々のドライバにより異なるので、これらを管理センタが把握することでスキル管理も行える。   As driver management, the time required for unloading (loading) for each individual driver and the number of times the door is opened and closed vary depending on the individual driver. Therefore, skill management can be performed by grasping these times by the management center.

図4は別実施例を示す図であり、この実施例にあっては入荷先ごとの商品収納容器7を用意し、商品の引渡しは商品収納容器7を単位として行うようにしている。   FIG. 4 is a diagram showing another embodiment. In this embodiment, a product storage container 7 is prepared for each arrival destination, and the delivery of the product is performed in units of the product storage container 7.

これら各商品収納容器7には、前記通信機能付き温度センサ4とは別の通信機能付き温度センサ8を設け、温度センサ4、8で測定した温度データを短距離通信(Bluetooth(登録商標)など)を利用して、保冷車3の送受信手段5(ドライバのスマートホン)に送信し、送受信手段5からネットワーク1を介して管理センタのコンピュータ2に送信している。   Each of these commodity storage containers 7 is provided with a temperature sensor 8 with a communication function different from the temperature sensor 4 with a communication function, and the temperature data measured by the temperature sensors 4 and 8 is transmitted over a short distance (such as Bluetooth (registered trademark)). ) Is transmitted to the transmission / reception means 5 (smart phone of the driver) of the cold car 3, and is transmitted from the transmission / reception means 5 to the computer 2 of the management center via the network 1.

尚、短距離通信を使うことで、温度センサ4、8のバッテリの消耗を少なくできるが、ネットワーク1を介して直接管理センタのコンピュータ2に送信するようにしてもよい。   Although the short-distance communication can be used to reduce the battery consumption of the temperature sensors 4 and 8, it may be transmitted directly to the computer 2 in the management center via the network 1.

このように、2つの温度センサにより保冷車3内の全体的な温度管理と商品の個別の温度管理が可能になる。例えば、保冷車3内でも温度のばらつきがあるので、より低い温度での保存が要求される商品を1つの商品収納容器7に収納し、この商品収納容器7を最も温度が低くなる箇所に置くなどの措置がとれる。   In this way, the overall temperature management in the cool truck 3 and the individual temperature management of the product can be performed by the two temperature sensors. For example, since there are variations in temperature even in the cold car 3, a product that is required to be stored at a lower temperature is stored in one product storage container 7, and the product storage container 7 is placed in a place where the temperature is lowest. Such measures can be taken.

本発明は保冷車を用いた物流管理システムであるが、配送する商品としては生鮮食料品などの食品に限らず、例えば例えば生花や薬などの温度管理を必要とする商品であってもよい。   Although the present invention is a physical distribution management system using a cold car, a product to be delivered is not limited to food such as fresh food, but may be a product requiring temperature management such as fresh flowers and medicine.
