Definitions

  • the present invention relates to stock control and also access control to an item storage area, such as a parts or consumables store.
  • RFID portals are used for reading RFID tags attached to items passing through the portal.
  • RFID portals can therefore be used in stock control applications to track the movement of inventory such as parts and consumables into and out of a storage area (known as a store or stores).
  • RFID portals can also be used to track the movement of human users through the portal if they carry an RFID tag.
  • Access control barriers such as ticket barriers and security gates, require a user to present some form of identification including perhaps biometric data such as a finger print scan, before they are allowed through the barrier.

  • a proximity card reader 4 operable to read a user identifier from a user's identity card held up against the reader.
  • Other suitable types of readers include the kind for reading different types of user identifier carriers (including swipe card readers for magnetic swipe cards and bar code readers for reading printed bar codes) and biometric readers for reading biometric user identifiers directly from the user such as finger prints and retina scans.
  • the control unit 6 has a processor and memory containing a storage log 8 that is used to log the read user identifiers.
  • a video capture module includes a video camera 10 that captures video of the user and tags it with the read user identifier.
  • the portal 2 also has an item identifier reader which is an RFID tag reader operable to read an item identifier from an RFID tag passing through the portal.
  • the RFID reader has four antennas 12a to 12d connected to an RFID reader controller which is an Alien Technology alr8800 module. The antennas have a multi-static topology and circular or linear polarisation.
  • the reader support includes EPC (Electronic Product Code) Class 1 Gen 2, EPC Class 1 Gen 1, ISO 18000-6c RFID tag protocols.
  • the control unit runs controller software.
  • the control unit has an XScaleTM processor running Linux with 64 Mb of RAM, 32 Mb of flash memory, a DSP and a Field Programmable Analogue array (FPAA) for signal processing.
  • the RFID reader is activated to read the item identifier by the proximity card reader for example when a user swipes their identity card in front of the proximity card reader the RFID reader activates in order to read the RFID tags of items being carried by the user who has identified himself.
  • the RFID reader may also be activated by a user going through the turnstile 16.
  • the turnstile 16 controls user access through the portal using the user identifier that is read by the proximity card reader.
  • the turnstile has a top LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) indicator. It is bidirectional so can be entered from both sides. It may be fail safe (the arm will drop down when powered off), or fail secure (the arm will be locked when powered off).
  • the turnstile arm is anti-clamping, that is the arm will be unlocked if people hold the arm when passing through.
  • the turnstile also has an anti tail-after detector so illegal invasion can be detected.
  • access control means may be used, for example a single door with an electronic lock, however the advantage of a turnstile or similar barrier, such as double sliding doors or a rotary door, is that it only allows one person through at a time.
  • the turnstile under control of the control unit, controls the user access through the portal responsive to validation of the user identifier. Validation may include for example checking the user identifier against a list of authorised users. In that case only authorised users are issued with cards with their matching user identifier. Furthermore, when the user is exiting the stores through the portal the turnstile can be used to control user access using the read RFID item identifier. For example if the user is not authorised to take certain items out of stores then activation of the turnstile can be prevented while they are carrying that item. In this way the turnstile controls user access responsive to validation of the read RFID item identifier.
  • the validation may be performed by looking up a database which contains access rights for users with respect to parts. This may be done with a look up table or alternatively using categories for parts and a record of which categories can be accessed by which user.
  • the turnstile 16 is arranged within the scanning volume are of the RFID reader, which in this case is the volume defined by the arrangement of antennas 12a to 12d.
  • the portal provides access control to the item storage area with the entrance and exit along the same corridor 18.
  • Alternative arrangements include a long corridor with a separate RFID reader and identity card reader and turnstile at different locations along the corridor.
  • the access control may be provided by for example by an activatable turnstile on the entrance corridor, with the exit corridor having the RFID reader and a dumb one-way turnstile which serves only to activate the RFID reader.
  • an activatable turnstile on the entrance corridor with the exit corridor having the RFID reader and a dumb one-way turnstile which serves only to activate the RFID reader.
  • a portal 2 is shown in a fence 20 around the perimeter of a stores area 22 which is used for storing items 24.
  • a fire exit 26 can provide an alternative exit from the stores area but in normal use the only entrance and exit is through the portal 2.
  • the portal further comprises a computer terminal which displays an item location interface 28. After a user has entered the stores area they use the item location interface to find an item. The user identifier that has been read by the proximity card is used to permit the user access to the item locator interface by logging them in automatically.
  • An integrated system which has a record of the current work activities of the user may present the user with an indication immediately of where to find the part that they are currently working with or that they have been instructed by another computer screen elsewhere in the factory to go and find.
  • the portal control unit has a processor which runs the software that displays the item location interface.
  • this module of the portal could be distributed on a different computer system separate from the control unit.
  • an allocation module 30 Upon exit from the stores area the user has access to an allocation module 30 using a computer terminal which is operable to allocate the read RFID item identifier to a cost centre and/or work cell 32 using the read RFID identifier.
  • the user may be logged on to the allocation interface automatically by the allocation module for manual allocation of the item identifier by the user.
  • the allocation module is operable to automatically allocate the RFID item identifier to a cost centre and/or work cell associated with the user.
  • the allocation module may be a software module running in the control unit alternatively running on a separate computer system perhaps in the terminal or in a central server.
  • FIG. 3 a flow chart of the use of the portal and the method of stock control and access control is shown.
  • the user walks through the portal 34 and presents their clock/proximity card against the turnstile entry reader 36.
  • the user entering or wishing to gain access to the pod may have on his person a standard RFID tag encoded with his/her details (clock number, department or other personal data) that when scanned by a RFID tag proximity reader, or entry through the pod, will allow access through the turnstile on entry or exit.
  • the access entry is video tagged 38 and the user entry access is logged 40. If the user identity credentials are recognised 42 then the turnstile activates 44; if the credentials not recognised then the turnstile does not activate and the condition is logged 40.
  • the user then enters the main stores area 46 and may access the internal stores parts location interface 48.
  • the user searches for parts locations 50. If the user fails to locate parts 52 they can leave the stores area immediately. The user may find the part directly. Alternatively, the user may allocate parts to a picking list 56 and print the picking list 58 before retrieving the parts 60. Parts removed from RFID control packaging will be added to an exceptions report and invoiced at month end 62. Parts that have been launched out of stores, e.g. thrown or passed through the exit, will be logged against the user/users present in the stores at the time of the parts' exit 64.
  • the user then approaches the stores exit 66.
  • the user presents the clock/proximity card against the turnstile exit reader 68.
  • the turnstile activates 70 and the access exit is video captured and tagged with the user identity 72. Also at this point the user exit access is logged 74.
  • turnstile may be activated, for example:
  • the user is logged automatically onto the parts allocation interface 76.
  • the user then walks through the portal out of the stores area 78.
  • the user approaches the stores part allocation interface 80 and confirms the parts withdrawal 82.
  • the user selects parts and allocates to a cost centre or work area 84.
  • the user may also allocate parts to cells or work areas 86.
  • the portal 2 is shown with the location of the four antennas 12a to 12d, showing the magnetic field during scanning.
  • the lower antennas are adjustable.
  • the portal has sliding doors for access control.
  • the physical dimensions and design of the portal function to contain or enclose the radio wave form generated by the RFID transmitter.
  • the materials used, such as 1.2mm mild steel also assist this process whilst still complying with the health and safety guidelines for safe use of the RFID hardware.
  • This embodiment uses a sliding mechanical door mechanism as access control means. It restricts access through the portal by closing and allows access through the portal by opening. When the doors are closed during item scanning, the attenuation of the signal from the antennas by the enclosure created by the closed door and the other panels of the portal minimises signal leakage or unwanted tag reads. This provides the advantage that when other users are near the portal, for example in a queue, then the tags that they are carrying are not inadvertently read by the antennas.
  • This embodiment uses a two or four antenna configuration.
  • the antennas are mounted on adjustable base plates, to give optimum coverage of the scanning volume and to allow adjustments to be made to the angle of the antenna that alters the characteristic radio wave form generated and range of the tag recognition.
  • the antennas may be mounted on free rotating gimbals that allow full 360 degree rotation and adjustment. In conjunction with the field strength attenuation provided by the sliding doors when closed, the portal can give full coverage to the tag reading volume.
  • the sliding doors utilise a lever and pulley mechanism driven by an electric motor to independently open each door in turn.
  • the mechanism is on a camber to allow the doors to retract immediately in case of a fire or when power is withdrawn from the system.
  • the portal has rotating doors for access control.
  • This rotating door embodiment can be constructed using mild steel, for example of 1.2mm thickness. It utilises an electric motor to rotate the cylindrical gateway, the rotation is forward then backward (e.g. clockwise then anticlockwise). This enables the antennas to be attached to the gateway without twisting their connecting cables.
  • the mechanism incorporates a passive sprung mechanism to allow the cylindrical gateway to spin immediately open in case of a fire or when power is withdrawn from the system. The use of two diametrically opposed entrance/exit slots in the cylinder of the rotating door allows such a failsafe open position.
