Description

원스탑 자동 세척보관장치One-stop automatic washing storage device
컵이 자동세척, 건조, 살균처리되어 보관까지 되는 원스탑 자동 세척보관장치에 관한 것이다.It relates to a one-stop automatic cleaning and storage device that automatically cleans, dries, sterilizes and stores cups.
일반적으로 컵은 물이나 음료를 마시기 위한 용기로 사용되며, 유리 또는 플라스틱, 금속 등 여러 가지 재질로 제조된다. 이러한 컵은 자판기나 음식점 등에서 많이 사용되고 있으며, 사용 후 컵은 관리자가 수작업으로 세척하였으나 많은 양을 세척하기에는 한계가 있어 현재에는 식기세척기를 통해 세척을 하고 있다.In general, cups are used as containers for drinking water or beverages, and are made of various materials such as glass, plastic, or metal. These cups are widely used in vending machines or restaurants, and after use, managers manually wash the cups, but there is a limit to washing a large amount, so they are currently washed through a dishwasher.
그러나, 식기세척기는 컵을 전용으로 세척하기 위한 장치가 아니므로 컵을 세척하기에는 사용이 불편할 뿐만 아니라, 식기와의 충돌에 의해 파손될 우려가 큰 문제점이 있었다. 또한, 컵은 특성상 표면에 더러운 물질 또는 세척하기 어려운 물질이 묻어있는 경우가 많지 않음에도 불구하고 종래의 식기세척기는 식기와 동일한 정도로 컵을 세척하게 되므로 물의 낭비가 클 뿐만 아니라 오랜 시간을 허비하게 되어 전력이 낭비되는 문제점이 있었다.However, since the dishwasher is not a device for exclusively washing cups, it is not only inconvenient to use for washing cups, but also has a high risk of damage due to collision with dishes. In addition, although cups do not often have dirty substances or difficult-to-clean substances on their surface, conventional dishwashers wash cups to the same extent as tableware, so not only wastes a lot of water but also wastes a long time. There was a problem that power was wasted.
이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 대한민국 등록특허 제10-0881712호 "컵 세척기"에 사용이 완료된 컵을 살균 세척하여 보관함으로써 컵의 청결성 및 사용성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있도록 발명하였다. 그러나 컵의 재질에 적합하지 않은 온도에서 세척, 건조, 살균과정을 거쳐 컵이 변형되거나 손상되어 사용할 수 없게 되었으며, 관리자가 직접 온도와 작동시간을 설정하더라도 재질에 적합한 온도를 일일이 확인하여 설정하기 번거로웠다. 그리고 적절한 온도와 시간동안 컵의 살균이 완전히 되지 않아 식중독 및 질병을 일으키는 균이나 바이러스가 컵을 통해 전파될 우려가 발생하였으며, 장치 내부에서 컵을 하나씩 이동시켜 세척하고 건조하는 과정을 거치도록 갖추어지면서 장치의 크기가 커져 설치하기 위한 공간이 고려되어야 하는 문제점이 있었다.In order to solve this problem, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0881712 "cup washer" was invented to greatly improve the cleanliness and usability of the cup by sterilizing and washing the cup after use. However, washing, drying, and sterilization at temperatures unsuitable for the material of the cup made the cup deformed or damaged, making it unusable. it was low In addition, since the cups were not completely sterilized at an appropriate temperature and time, there was a risk that food poisoning and disease-causing germs or viruses could spread through the cups. There is a problem in that the size of the device increases and space for installation must be considered.

The body part 100 is arranged and stored in a single layer so that a plurality of cups are not overlapped in an inverted state inside the square box shape, and an installation space is provided so that other components can be installed therein. In particular, the main body 100 allows a plurality of identical cups made of one of metal, glass, and plastic to be stored in suitable conditions during washing, drying, and sterilization. In detail, the main body 100 includes a main body 110 in which the front of the square box is opened and closed by a door, a shelf 120 installed in a spaced apart layer inside the main body 110 and a cup placed thereon, and the main body 110 ) It is installed on the inner bottom surface and includes a water tray 130 for storing washing water falling during washing.
본체(110)는 전방으로 개폐되는 도어를 통해 내부가 보이도록 전면이 유리로 형성되거나 디스플레이로 이루어져, 내부에 보관된 컵을 세척, 건조 및 살균처리 시 작업상황을 확인할 수 있다. 또한, 본체(110)는 전면에 형성된 디스플레이를 통해 터치입력될 수 있도록 갖추어져, 세척, 건조, 살균시 설정온도와 작동시간을 관리자가 임의로 설정하거나 변경할 수 있다. 이를 통해 본체(110)는 관리자가 세척보관장치의 작동 확인 및 제어를 간편하게 할 수 있도록 제공함으로써 관리자의 작업성 및 편의성을 향상시킬 수 있다.The front of the main body 110 is made of glass or made of a display so that the inside can be seen through a door that opens and closes in the front, so that the working conditions can be checked when washing, drying, and sterilizing the cups stored inside. In addition, the main body 110 is equipped so that a touch input can be received through a display formed on the front, so that a manager can arbitrarily set or change the set temperature and operation time during washing, drying, and sterilization. Through this, the main body 110 can improve the manager's workability and convenience by providing a manager to easily check and control the operation of the washing storage device.
선반대(120)는 본체(110) 내 수직방향으로 이격되어 좌우 대칭되게 선반받침대가 고정될 수 있으며, 선반받침대의 상부에 얹히도록 설치된다. 이때, 선반대(120)는 상면에 복수의 미끄럼방지 돌기가 규칙적으로 형성되거나 컵을 고정시키는 고정돌기가 컵 내부에 삽입된 상태로 갖추어진다. 이로 인해 선반대(120)의 상면에 엎어진 상태로 놓여진 컵이 세척수 분사시 압력에 의해 움직이지 않아 복수의 컵이 서로 부딪히지 않고 안전하게 세척될 수 있다. 또한, 선반대(120)는 메쉬망으로 이루어져 컵 세척시 세척수를 하방으로 흐르게 하여 물받이(130)에 물이 모여 배출관을 통해 외부로 배출되도록 한다.The shelves 120 are spaced apart in the vertical direction within the body 110 so that the shelf supports can be fixed symmetrically left and right, and are installed so as to rest on top of the shelf supports. At this time, the shelf 120 is equipped with a plurality of non-slip protrusions regularly formed on the upper surface or a fixing protrusion for fixing cups inserted into the inside of the cup. As a result, the cups placed face down on the upper surface of the shelf 120 do not move due to the pressure when the washing water is sprayed, so that the plurality of cups can be safely washed without colliding with each other. In addition, the shelf 120 is made of a mesh net so that washing water flows downward during cup washing so that the water is collected in the drip tray 130 and discharged to the outside through the discharge pipe.
상세히, 물받이(130)는 본체(110) 내 하면과 대응되도록 사각형상으로 오목하게 형성되어 배출구 측으로 기울어지게 갖추어진다. 이때, 물받이(130)는 내측면에 수위측정센서가 설치되어 저장된 세척수의 양을 측정할 수 있다. 또한, 물받이(130)는 일측 하면에 배출구가 형성되어 배출관을 통해 외부로 연결되며, 수위측정센서에서 기준수위가 넘었다고 감지되면 배출구가 자동으로 개방된다. 그리고 물받이(130)는 세척수가 배출관을 통해 외부로 배출될 수 있도록 하여 세척수가 물받이(130)에서 넘치는 사고를 방지할 수 있다.In detail, the gutter 130 is formed concavely in a rectangular shape so as to correspond to the lower surface of the main body 110 and is inclined toward the outlet. At this time, a water level sensor is installed on the inner surface of the water tray 130 to measure the amount of washing water stored. In addition, the drip tray 130 has a discharge port formed on one side of the lower surface and is connected to the outside through a discharge pipe, and the discharge port is automatically opened when the water level measurement sensor detects that the reference water level is exceeded. In addition, the drip tray 130 allows the washing water to be discharged to the outside through the discharge pipe, thereby preventing an accident in which the washing water overflows from the drip tray 130 .
감지부(200)는 컵에 레이저가 조사되어 금속, 유리, 플라스틱 중 어느 하나로 판별되게 하는 구성이다. 이러한 감지부(200)는 컵의 재질을 판별하기 위해 복수의 컵 중 어느 하나에 레이저를 조사하며, 레이저의 투과여부와 반사여부에 따라 제어부(900)에서 판단될 수 있다. 먼저, 감지부(200)는 레이저가 비투과되어 반사되는 경우 금속으로 판별되며, 레이저가 투과되는 경우 유리로 판별되고, 레이저가 난반사되는 경우 플라스틱으로 판별된다. 상세히, 난반사는 표면으로 들어온 빛이 반사 될 때, 다수의 방향들로 반사되는 빛 반사를 말한다.The sensing unit 200 is configured to determine one of metal, glass, and plastic by irradiating laser on the cup. The sensing unit 200 irradiates a laser beam on one of a plurality of cups to determine the material of the cup, and the controller 900 may determine whether or not the laser is transmitted or not reflected. First, the sensing unit 200 is determined to be metal when the laser is not transmitted and reflected, is determined to be glass when the laser is transmitted, and is determined to be plastic when the laser is diffusely reflected. In detail, diffuse reflection refers to light reflection that is reflected in multiple directions when light entering a surface is reflected.
이와 같은 감지부(200)는 레이저가 조사되는 컵이 배치된 후면에 광전센서를 장착하여 거리와 빛의 밝기 변화를 감지해 투명한 물체를 식별할 수 있다. 이 외에도 금속근접센서로 금속과 비금속을 분류할 수 있으며, 사운드센서를 통해 플라스틱과 유리를 분류할 수 있다. 이때, 유리컵의 소리가 플라스틱컵의 소리보다 상대적으로 크기 때문에 소리감지센서로 300이상 400미만일 경우 플라스틱 컵으로 판단하고, 400이상인 경우 유리컵으로 판단한다.Such a sensing unit 200 may identify a transparent object by mounting a photoelectric sensor on the rear surface of the cup on which the laser is irradiated, detecting a change in the brightness of light and distance. In addition, the metal proximity sensor can classify metal and non-metal, and the sound sensor can classify plastic and glass. At this time, since the sound of the glass cup is relatively louder than the sound of the plastic cup, if the sound sensor is 300 or more and less than 400, it is determined as a plastic cup, and if it is 400 or more, it is determined as a glass cup.
세척부(300)는 본체부(100) 내에 진열된 복수의 컵에 세척수가 분사되어 세척되게 하는 구성이다. 이와 같은 세척부(300)는 컵이 진열된 층마다 좌우로 배치될 수 있으며, 세척수가 분사되는 분사노즐이 갖추어진다. 이때, 분사노즐은 세척수가 직선형으로 배출되도록 형성되거나, 나선형으로 배출되도록 회전되어 광범위로 확산되며 분사각도가 변화되면서 세척시 작업성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 세척부(300)는 세척시 사용되는 세제와 물이 섞인 세척수가 분사된 후 건조 전 헹굼시 사용되는 물이 분사되어 컵에 묻은 세제를 씻겨낸 상태에서 건조작업이 실행될 수 있도록 한다.The washing unit 300 is configured to spray washing water to a plurality of cups displayed in the body unit 100 to wash them. Such washing units 300 may be disposed left and right for each floor where cups are displayed, and are equipped with spray nozzles through which washing water is sprayed. At this time, the spray nozzle is formed so that the washing water is discharged in a straight line or is rotated to be discharged in a spiral to spread over a wide area, and the spray angle is changed to improve workability during washing. The washing unit 300 sprays washing water mixed with detergent used for washing and then sprays water used for rinsing before drying to wash away the detergent on the cup so that a drying operation can be performed.
상세히, 세척부(300)는 감지부(200)에서 판독된 컵의 재질에 따라 설정온도와 작동시간이 자동 설정된다. 유리 컵의 경우 세척온도 50-60℃, 헹굼온도 65-75℃로 설정되며 작동시간 30-40분으로 설정된다. 그리고 스테인리스 컵의 경우 세척온도 65-75℃, 헹굼온도 70-80℃로 설정되며 작동시간 20-30분으로 설정된다. 플라스틱 컵의 경우 세척온도 55-65℃, 헹굼온도 55-65℃로 설정되며 작동시간 30-40분으로 설정된다. In detail, the cleaning unit 300 automatically sets the set temperature and operation time according to the material of the cup read by the sensing unit 200 . In the case of a glass cup, the washing temperature is set to 50-60℃, the rinsing temperature is set to 65-75℃, and the operating time is set to 30-40 minutes. And in the case of a stainless cup, the washing temperature is set to 65-75℃, the rinsing temperature is set to 70-80℃, and the operating time is set to 20-30 minutes. In the case of plastic cups, the washing temperature is set to 55-65℃, the rinsing temperature is set to 55-65℃, and the operating time is set to 30-40 minutes.
건조부(400)는 본체부(100) 내에 세척된 복수의 컵에 열풍이 분사되어 건조되게 하는 구성이다. 이러한 건조부(400)는 본체부(100) 내 하부에 열풍기가 설치될 수 있으며, 본체부(100) 내 하부에서 상부로 열풍이 상승하여 선반대(120)의 메쉬망을 통과하여 진열된 컵을 모두 건조시킬 수 있다. 또한, 건조부(400)는 본체부(100)의 하부 양측에 열풍기가 설치되어 건조시간을 단축시킴으로서 건조효율을 높일 수 있다. 그리고 건조부(400)는 세척부(300)에서 헹굼 작업 수행이 완료된 직후 바로 작동되어 작업시간을 단축시킬 수 있다.The drying unit 400 is configured to dry a plurality of cups washed in the main body unit 100 by blowing hot air. In the drying unit 400, a hot air blower may be installed in the lower part of the body unit 100, and hot air rises from the lower part to the upper part in the body unit 100, passing through the mesh net of the shelf 120 and displaying cups. can all be dried. In addition, in the drying unit 400, hot air blowers are installed on both sides of the lower portion of the main body unit 100 to shorten the drying time, thereby increasing drying efficiency. In addition, the drying unit 400 is operated immediately after the washing unit 300 completes the rinsing operation, thereby reducing working time.
상세히, 건조부(400)는 감지부(200)에서 판독된 컵의 재질에 따라 설정온도와 작동시간이 자동 설정된다. 유리 컵의 경우 건조온도 65-75℃, 작동시간 20-30분으로 설정된다. 그리고 금속의 예시로 스테인리스 컵의 경우 건조온도 85-90℃, 작동시간 15-20분으로 설정되며, 플라스틱 컵의 경우 건조온도 55-65℃, 작동시간 20-30분으로 설정된다. 이와 같은 건조부(400)는 세척온도보다 높게 설정되어 단시간 빠르게 건조되며 물자국이 형성되지 않도록 방지할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 완전 건조된 상태에서 자외선을 쬐어 컵의 살균효과를 얻을 수 있다. In detail, the drying unit 400 automatically sets the set temperature and operation time according to the material of the cup read by the sensing unit 200 . In the case of glass cups, the drying temperature is set at 65-75°C and the operating time is 20-30 minutes. And, as an example of metal, in the case of a stainless cup, the drying temperature is set to 85-90 ° C and the operating time is set to 15-20 minutes, and in the case of a plastic cup, the drying temperature is set to 55-65 ° C and the operating time is set to 20-30 minutes. The drying unit 400 is set higher than the washing temperature so that it dries quickly for a short period of time, prevents formation of water stains, and also obtains a sterilization effect of the cup by exposing it to ultraviolet rays in a completely dried state.
살균부(500)는 본체부(100)의 상면 또는 내벽에 설치된 자외선 램프를 이용하여 컵을 향해 자외선을 조사하며 살균되게 하는 구성이다. 이와 같은 살균부(500)는 UV-C 파장이 방출되어 각종 세균 살균 효과가 있으며, 살균 및 소독 효과를 기대할 수 있다. 특히, 살균부(500)는 자외선이 금속이나 플라스틱 컵에는 투과되지 않아 살균을 요하는 부분에 직접 쏘여야 살균 효과가 나타나므로, 해당 재질의 컵을 살균하고자 할 경우 컵의 내면이 자외선에 노출될 수 있도록 한다. The sterilization unit 500 is configured to sterilize the cup by irradiating ultraviolet rays toward the cup using an ultraviolet lamp installed on the upper surface or inner wall of the body portion 100 . Such a sterilization unit 500 emits UV-C wavelengths to have various germ sterilization effects, and sterilization and disinfection effects can be expected. In particular, the sterilization unit 500 does not transmit ultraviolet rays through metal or plastic cups, so the sterilization effect is shown only when it is directly applied to the part requiring sterilization. make it possible
이를 위해 살균부(500)는 엎어진 상태의 컵을 살균처리한 이후 관리자가 직접 컵을 정위치로 회전시켜 놓아 컵의 내면이 상부의 자외선 램프에 의해 자외선에 노출될 수 있다. 또한, 살균부(500)는 자외선 살균효과가 습도에 반비례하여 컵을 건조시키지 않고 그대로 자외선에 노출되면 자외선 살균효과를 기대할 수 없으며, 살균효과를 위해 권장되는 살균시간은 10W 사용시 40분 이상을 유지하여야 한다. To this end, the sterilization unit 500 sterilizes the cup in an upside-down state, and then the manager directly rotates the cup to the correct position so that the inner surface of the cup can be exposed to ultraviolet rays by the UV lamp at the top. In addition, in the sterilization unit 500, the ultraviolet sterilization effect is inversely proportional to the humidity, so if the cup is exposed to ultraviolet rays without drying the cup, the ultraviolet sterilization effect cannot be expected, and the recommended sterilization time for the sterilization effect is 10W. shall.
식별부(600)는 본체부(100)에 층마다 나열된 복수의 컵의 위치별로 개별 식별번호를 부여하여 컵을 구분하는 구성이다. 이와 같은 식별부(600)는 컵의 식별번호에 의해 관리자가 해당 컵의 위치를 쉽게 파악하고 찾을 수 있도록 도우며, 관리자의 작업시간을 단축시키는 효과가 있다. 식별부(600)는 XY (X:행, Y:열)로 나타낼 수 있으며, 11은 하단에서 첫번째행 1열을 나타내고 23은 하단에서 두번째행 3열을 나타낸다.The identification unit 600 is a component that distinguishes cups by assigning individual identification numbers to positions of a plurality of cups arranged on each floor in the main body unit 100 . The identification unit 600 as described above helps a manager to easily identify and find the location of a corresponding cup by the identification number of the cup, and has an effect of reducing the manager's working time. The identification unit 600 can be expressed as XY (X: row, Y: column), 11 indicates the first row and column 1 from the bottom, and 23 indicates the second row and 3 columns from the bottom.
촬영부(700)는 살균부(500)에서 작동완료된 후 복수의 컵의 외관이 촬영되어 현재이미지(710)가 저장되는 구성이다. 이러한 촬영부(700)는 본체부(100)의 내측 상면과 후면에 설치될 수 있으며, 복수의 컵을 동시에 촬영하거나 식별번호 별 따로 외관을 촬영하여 현재이미지(710)를 저장할 수 있다. 또한, 촬영부(700)는 개별 촬영시 물체 감지 센서에 의해 컵의 해당 위치로 회전 이동하여 컵이 놓여진 경우에만 촬영을 진행하며, 빈 자리는 인식하지 않아 불필요한 이미지촬영을 방지할 수 있다.The photographing unit 700 is a component in which the appearance of a plurality of cups is photographed after the operation is completed in the sterilization unit 500 and the current image 710 is stored. The photographing unit 700 may be installed on the inner upper surface and the rear surface of the body part 100, and may simultaneously photograph a plurality of cups or separately photograph the appearance of each cup to store the current image 710. In addition, the photographing unit 700 rotates to the corresponding position of the cup by the object detection sensor during individual photographing and proceeds to photograph only when the cup is placed, and does not recognize an empty seat, thereby preventing unnecessary image photographing.
저장부(800)는 컵의 현재이미지(710)와 비교 판단하기 위해 최초이미지(810)가 저장되는 구성이다. 이때, 저장부(800)는 컵의 재질 별 최초이미지(810)가 저장되는 것이 바람직하며, 감지부(200)에서 판별된 컵의 재질에 해당되는 최초이미지(810)가 제어부(900)로 전달될 수 있다. 이와 같은 저장부(800)는 세척이 완료된 컵에 이물질이 묻어 있거나 파손된 컵 또는 찌그러진 변형된 컵을 감지할 수 있도록 최초이미지(810)가 저장된다.The storage unit 800 stores the initial image 810 for comparison with the current image 710 of the cup. At this time, it is preferable that the storage unit 800 stores the initial image 810 for each material of the cup, and the initial image 810 corresponding to the material of the cup determined by the sensor 200 is transmitted to the controller 900. It can be. The storage unit 800 stores the initial image 810 so that a cup that has been cleaned is stained with foreign substances, or a cup that is damaged or deformed is detected.
제어부(900)는 세척보관장치의 각 구성의 작동을 제어하여 컵의 세척, 건조, 살균 및 보관까지 실행되도록 한다. 제어부(900)는 감지부(200)에서 레이저의 투과여부 및 난반사여부에 따라 재질을 판별한다. 이때, 제어부(900)는 감지부(200)에서 레이저 비투과로 감지되면 금속으로 판단하며, 투과로 감지되면 유리로 판단하고 난반사로 감지되면 플라스틱으로 판단할 수 있다.The control unit 900 controls the operation of each component of the cleaning and storage device so that washing, drying, sterilization, and storage of the cup are executed. The control unit 900 determines the material according to whether or not the laser is transmitted through the sensor 200 and whether or not it is diffusely reflected. At this time, the control unit 900 may determine that the laser is non-transmissive by the sensing unit 200 and determine it as metal.
특히, 제어부(900)는 촬영된 현재이미지(710)와 최초이미지(810)를 비교 판독하여 컵의 이상을 감지해 관리자단말기(10)로 이상감지알림을 전달하는 구성이다. 이러한 제어부(900)는 최초이미지(810)와 달리 현재이미지(710)에서 컵의 잔여 이물질이 있거나 파손 또는 찌그러진 변형된 상태로 인해 컵의 이상이 감지될 수 있다. 이때, 제어부(900)는 해당 컵의 식별번호(610)와 현재이미지(710) 및 이상감지알림(910)을 관리자단말기(10)로 전달하여 관리자가 즉시 확인할 수 있도록 제공한다.In particular, the controller 900 compares and reads the captured current image 710 and the first image 810 to detect an abnormality in the cup and transmits an abnormality detection notification to the manager terminal 10 . Unlike the initial image 810, the controller 900 may detect an abnormality of the cup in the current image 710 due to residual foreign substances in the cup, damage, or a deformed state of the cup. At this time, the control unit 900 transfers the identification number 610 of the corresponding cup, the current image 710, and the anomaly detection notification 910 to the manager terminal 10 so that the manager can check them immediately.
여기서 관리자단말기(10)는 앱(APP)을 이용하여 세척보관장치와 무선연결될 수 있으며, 관리자가 이상감지알림(910)에 의해 관리자단말기(10)를 확인한 후 현재이미지(710)를 확인하여 컵의 교체여부를 판단할 수 있다. 그리고 관리자가 컵의 교체가 필요한 것으로 판단하면 관리자단말기(10)로 교체필요버튼을 누름동작하여 관리자가 직접 식별번호(610)에 해당하는 컵을 새 것으로 교체한다. 이와 달리, 관리자가 컵의 교체가 불필요한 것으로 판단하면 관리자단말기(10)로 교체불필요버튼을 누름동작하여 해당 컵이 계속 사용될 수 있도록 보관을 유지한다.Here, the manager terminal 10 can be wirelessly connected to the washing storage device using an app (APP), and after the manager checks the manager terminal 10 by the abnormal detection notification 910, the current image 710 is checked to make a cup. replacement can be determined. When the manager determines that the cup needs to be replaced, the manager directly replaces the cup corresponding to the identification number 610 with a new one by pressing the replacement button with the manager terminal 10 . In contrast, if the manager determines that the replacement of the cup is unnecessary, the manager terminal 10 presses the replacement unnecessary button to keep the corresponding cup so that it can be used continuously.
이때, 제어부(900)는 관리자에 의해 현재이미지(710)가 판단된 교체필요여부를 현재이미지(710)와 매칭하여 피드백 학습하며, 교체불필요로 판단된 유사한 이미지가 확인된 경우 관리자단말기(10)로 이상감지알림(910)을 전달하지 않도록 할 수 있다. 이로 인해 제어부(900)는 불필요한 이상감지알림(910)이 관리자단말기(10)로 전달되지 않도록 함으로써 컵 이상 감지의 정확도를 높일 수 있으며, 관리자의 업무효율을 향상시킬 수 있다.At this time, the control unit 900 performs feedback learning by matching the current image 710 with the current image 710 to determine whether the current image 710 needs to be replaced by the manager, and when a similar image determined to not require replacement is confirmed, the manager terminal 10 The anomaly detection notification 910 can be prevented from being delivered. As a result, the controller 900 prevents unnecessary anomaly detection notifications 910 from being transmitted to the manager terminal 10, thereby increasing the accuracy of detecting an abnormality in the cup and improving the manager's work efficiency.
또한, 제어부(900)는 외부데이터와 연결되어 미세먼지, 식중독, 전염성 질병 정보를 전달받아 건조부(400)의 열풍의 세기와 온도를 제어하여, 각종 질병을 유발할 수 있는 바이러스를 외부로부터 차단하고 고온의 열풍으로 살균처리하여 사용자가 안전하게 컵을 사용할 수 있도록 한다. 이때, 제어부(900)는 각종 바이러스에 대한 정보와 질병을 유발하는 정보를 제공하는 기관(질병관리청, 기상청, 뉴스 등)을 통해 전달받아 기존 실제 사용되는 열풍의 세기보다 높게 강으로 출력되도록 하며, 열풍의 온도는 90℃의 고온으로 컵이 살균될 수 있도록 제어한다. In addition, the control unit 900 is connected to external data to receive fine dust, food poisoning, and infectious disease information, and controls the intensity and temperature of hot air in the drying unit 400 to block viruses that can cause various diseases from the outside. It is sterilized with high-temperature hot air so that the user can safely use the cup. At this time, the control unit 900 receives information about various viruses and information on diseases that are transmitted through institutions (Disease Management Agency, Meteorological Administration, news, etc.) and outputs them to the river higher than the intensity of the existing hot air actually used, The temperature of the hot air is controlled to sterilize the cup at a high temperature of 90°C.
