Temperature monitoring and quality certification system for delivered articles
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11884481B2) discloses a delivery unit mounted on a vehicle for transporting multiple articles stored in a container filled with cooling gas. The delivery unit includes a tag attached to each article with strings, a bar-code reader to input lot numbers and expiration dates, a thermometer to measure temperature, a data logger to record temperature data, a printer, memory, and a CPU. The CPU controls the data logger, generates quality data for each article based on temperature readings, acquires and stores barcode data, and prints quality certificates based on the collected data.
Furthermore, the delivery unit may include additional features such as a liquid level indicator to measure cooling gas levels, a vibration indicator to measure road surface vibrations, a hygrometer to measure humidity, and an opening/closing sensor to detect the lid's state. The CPU utilizes data from these sensors to enhance the quality data generated for the articles, adding graphs representing liquid levels, vibrations, humidity, and lid states to provide a comprehensive overview of the conditions during transportation. This innovative system ensures the quality and integrity of the delivered articles by monitoring various environmental factors throughout the delivery process.
