Description

반려동물용 접촉식 비문리더기Contact type inscription reader for companion animals
본 발명은 반려동물용 접촉식 비문리더기에 관한 것으로, 더웃 상세하게는 반려동물 비문(코 지문) 인증시 반려동물의 상태에 상관 없이 정확한 비문 영상을 획득할 수 있는 반려동물용 접촉식 비문리더기에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a contact-type inscription reader for companion animals, and more particularly, to a contact-type inscription reader for companion animals that can obtain an accurate inscription image regardless of the state of the companion animal when authentication of a companion animal inscription (nose fingerprint) it's about
근래에는 반려동물의 수요가 폭발적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이기 때문에 자신의 반려동물을 인증하는 동물 인증이 이루어지고 있다.In recent years, since the demand for companion animals is explosively increasing, animal certification is being performed to certify one's companion animal.
이러한 인증은 반려동물 분실시 여러 반려동물 사이에서 자신의 반려동물 임을 쉽게 확인할 수 있도록 함으로써, 통상 사람의 주민등록 번호와 같은 역할을 한다.This authentication serves as a normal person's resident registration number by making it easy to identify one's companion animal among several companion animals when the companion animal is lost.
초기의 인증수단은 인식표를 목걸이 형식으로 걸어두는 것으로 가장 손쉽게 적용할 수 있으며, 인식표에는 숫자나 문자로 표기된 식별코드를 기록하였다.The initial means of authentication can be most easily applied by hanging an identification tag in the form of a necklace, and an identification code marked with numbers or letters is recorded on the identification tag.
다른 방식으로는 RFID(Radio Frequency Identification)태그(Tag)를 이용하여 예를 들어 소의 귀에 RFID 태그를 장착하는 방법, 또는 반려동물의 피부에 마이크로칩(Micro Chip)을 삽입하는 방법 및 유전자 정보를 기록하는 방법이 등이 적용되고 있다.Another method is to use an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag, for example, a method of attaching an RFID tag to a cow's ear, or a method of inserting a microchip into the skin of a companion animal, and recording genetic information. How to do it, etc. are being applied.
그러나, 외부로 노출되는 RFID 태그는 교체가 되어도 확인할 수가 없으며, 피부에 삽입되는 마이크로칩은 동물에게 부작용과 고통을 주지만 쉽게 제거할 수 있는 단점이 있다. 또한, 유전자 정보를 등록하는 방식은 변형 가능성이 없지만 즉시 확인할 수 없다는 단점이 있다.However, the RFID tag exposed to the outside cannot be checked even after being replaced, and the microchip inserted into the skin causes side effects and pain to the animal, but has a disadvantage in that it can be easily removed. In addition, the method of registering genetic information has a disadvantage in that it cannot be confirmed immediately, although there is no possibility of modification.
따라서, 최근에는 반려동물 코의 융기부 형상을 이용하여 동물을 인증하는 비문(鼻紋) 인증 방법이 제시되고 있다. 즉, 동물 코에 형성된 융기부가 사람의 지문(指紋)처럼 개체 유일성이 있기 때문이다. Therefore, in recent years, an inscription authentication method for authenticating an animal using the shape of a ridge of a companion animal's nose has been proposed. In other words, this is because the ridge formed on the nose of an animal has individual uniqueness like a human fingerprint.
이러한, 비문 인증은 비문리더기를 통해 비문의 이미지를 획득하여 융기부들의 형상적 특징을 등록 하였다가 인증하는 방식으로, 초기에는 비접촉식 비문리더기가 적용되었으나 비접촉식은 비문의 오류율이 높아 최근에는 접촉식 비문리더기가 적용되고 있다.This inscription authentication is a method of obtaining an image of an inscription through an inscription reader, registering the shape characteristics of the ridges, and then authenticating the inscription. In the early days, a non-contact type inscription reader was applied, but the non-contact type has a high error rate of inscription, and recently, contact type inscription A reader is being applied.
비문리더기는 노출된 프리즘(10)을 다양한 패턴의 융기부와 골로 이루어진 동물의 코(20)에 도 1과 같이 밀착시키고, 비문을 향하여 빛을 조사하여 반사되는 빛들을 이미지로 획득하며, 획득된 이미지를 저장장치로 전송하여 저장장치에서 신상정보와 함께 저장함으로써, 추후 인증시 동일한 방식으로 비문 영상을 획득하게 된다.The inscription reader attaches the exposed prism 10 to the nose 20 of the animal composed of various patterns of ridges and valleys as shown in FIG. 1, irradiates light toward the inscription, acquires the reflected light as an image, and By transmitting the image to the storage device and storing it together with the personal information in the storage device, the inscription image is obtained in the same way during later authentication.
그러나, 위 접촉식 비문리더기 또한 획득된 이미지가 등록된 이미지와 불일치되는 오류가 수시로 발생하는 문제가 있다.However, the above contact type inscription reader also has a problem that an error in which the acquired image is inconsistent with the registered image frequently occurs.
이는, 통상 반려견의 코(20)가 깊은 골(谷)인 준곡(浚谷)(A)에 의해 다양한 형상의 융기부(21)로 구성되는데, 특히 도 2의(a)와 같이 코의 융기부(21) 부위에 얕은 골(谷)(노랑선 표시)인 평곡(平谷)들이 형성되어 있기 때문에 프리즘(10)을 코(20)와 접촉시킨 상태에서 촬영을 하게 되면 도 1과 같이 평곡(B)이 밀폐됨으로써, 평곡 내부에 잔존하는 공기가 매질역할을 하면서 빛을 반사하여 도 2의(B)와 같이 융기부의 평곡을 하얀 여백으로 외곡시키기 때문이다.Usually, the dog's nose 20 is composed of ridges 21 of various shapes by a semi-curve (A), which is a deep valley, especially as shown in FIG. 2 (a). Since flat valleys, which are shallow valleys (marked by a yellow line), are formed at the base 21, when photographing is performed while the prism 10 is in contact with the nose 20, as shown in FIG. 1, flat valleys ( This is because when B) is sealed, the air remaining inside the flat valley serves as a medium and reflects light to distort the flat valley of the ridge to a white blank as shown in FIG. 2 (B).
더하여 위와 같은 비문 외곡 현상은 반려견의 컨디션에 따라 달라질 수도 있는데, 특히 반려견의 코에 수분이 많을 경우 수분이 평곡에 잔존하면서 빛을 반사시키기 때문이다.In addition, the above inscription distortion may vary depending on the dog's condition, especially if the dog's nose has a lot of moisture, because the moisture remains in the plain and reflects light.

도 3 내지 도 10에 나타낸 바와 같이 본 발명의 반려동물용 접촉식 비문리더기(500)는, 손잡이(110)를 구비한 본체(100); 상기 본체(100)에 구비되며, 상기 반려동물의 얼굴 또는 코 형상을 촬영하는 카메라부(200); 상기 본체(100)에 구비되어 상기 반려동물의 코를 가압된 상태로 밀착되며, 코의 융기부(21)에 형성된 평곡(B)(平谷)들을 메꾸면서 비문 이미지를 촬영하는 비문촬영부(300); 및 상기 카메라부(200)와 비문촬영부(300)를 통해 획득된 이미지 데이터를 추출하여 관리서버로 전송하여 등록하며, 기 등록된 이미지 데이터와 획득된 이미지 데이터를 비교하여 인증하는 제어부(400);를 포함한다.As shown in Figures 3 to 10, the contact type inscription reader 500 for companion animals of the present invention includes a main body 100 having a handle 110; a camera unit 200 provided on the main body 100 and photographing the face or nose of the companion animal; It is provided in the main body 100 and adheres to the nose of the companion animal in a pressurized state, and captures an inscription image while filling the flat valleys (B) formed in the ridge 21 of the nose (300). ); And a control unit 400 that extracts the image data obtained through the camera unit 200 and the inscription photographing unit 300, transmits and registers the image data acquired to the management server, and compares the previously registered image data with the acquired image data for authentication. includes;
설명에 앞서, 본 발명 반려동물용 접촉식 비문리더기(500)의 가장 큰 특징은 반려동물의 인증을 위한 비문 촬영시 비문가압패드(320)를 적용하여 코의 융기부(21)에 형성된 평곡(B)(平谷)이 메꿔지도록 함으로써 인증 영상의 외곡을 차단하는 것에 있다.Prior to the description, the biggest feature of the contact type inscription reader 500 for companion animals of the present invention is the flat valley formed on the ridge 21 of the nose by applying the inscription pressure pad 320 when photographing the inscription for authentication of the companion animal ( B) It is to block the distortion of the authentication video by filling in the (flat).
반려동물은 개, 고양이 등과 같이 다양한 종류가 있지만, 이하에서는 '반려견'으로 설명하기로 한다.There are various types of companion animals, such as dogs and cats, but hereinafter, 'companion dogs' will be described.
본 발명의 비문리더기(500)는 반려견 코의 비문(鼻紋) 이미지를 획득하기 위해 코와 소정의 압력으로 접촉된다.The inscription reader 500 of the present invention is brought into contact with the dog's nose with a predetermined pressure in order to obtain an image of the inscription on the dog's nose.
본 발명의 비문리더기(500)는 도 4와 같은 반려견의 비문 이미지를 정확하게 획득할 수 있다. 즉, 도 2의(a)와 같이 비문의 융기부(21)에 형성된 얕은 골로 이루어진 평곡(B)(平谷) 형상이 획득된 이미지 상에 표현되지 않도록 한 것이다.The inscription reader 500 of the present invention can accurately acquire the inscription image of a companion dog as shown in FIG. 4 . That is, as shown in FIG. 2 (a), the flat valley (B) shape made of shallow valleys formed on the ridge 21 of the inscription is not expressed on the acquired image.
본체(100)는 도 3과 같이 후술하는 카메라부(200), 비문촬영부(300), 제어부(400), 영상표시부(113) 등이 설치될 수 있도록 하는 것으로 전체적으로 각 형의 형태를 유지하고 있고, 본체(100)의 하측에는 비문 촬영을 위해 유저가 손으로 파지할 수 있는 손잡이(110)가 구비되어 있으며, 손잡이(110)에는 서술된 구성을 실행시키기 위한 작동버튼(111)이 구비되어 있다.As shown in FIG. 3, the main body 100 maintains an angular shape as a whole to allow a camera unit 200, an inscription photographing unit 300, a control unit 400, an image display unit 113, etc. to be installed, and And, the lower side of the main body 100 is provided with a handle 110 that the user can hold by hand for taking pictures of inscriptions, and the handle 110 is provided with an operating button 111 for executing the described configuration there is.
작동버튼(111)은 후술하는 카메라부(200) 또는 비문촬영부(300)의 동작을 시작하는 것으로, 버튼방식 또는 방아쇠방식 등과 같은 다양한 조작수단을 통해 구현될 수도 있다.The operation button 111 starts the operation of the camera unit 200 or the inscription photographing unit 300 to be described later, and may be implemented through various operating means such as a button method or a trigger method.
여기서, 본체(100)의 형상은 설치되는 각 구조의 배치에 따라 다양한 디자인을 가질 수 있다.Here, the shape of the main body 100 may have various designs depending on the arrangement of each structure to be installed.
카메라부(200)는 도면상 본체(100) 좌측의 하측방향으로 배치되어 있으며, 반려견의 전체적인 형태 또는 얼굴의 형상 및 코의 전체형상을 촬영한다.The camera unit 200 is disposed in the downward direction of the left side of the main body 100 in the drawing, and captures the entire shape of the dog's face or nose.
카메라부(200)는 통상적인 구조를 이루고 있으며, 반려견을 향하여 촬영이 이루어져야 함에따라 본체(100)로부터 노출되게 설치되는 것이 바람직하고, 촬영된 반려견의 이미지를 후술하는 제어부(400)로 전송한다.The camera unit 200 has a conventional structure and is preferably installed so as to be exposed from the main body 100 as the photographing should be done toward the companion dog, and the photographed image of the companion dog is transmitted to the control unit 400 described later.
즉, 카메라를 통한 반려견 이미지 촬영은 대상 반려견의 인증정보를 등록하기 위해서이며, 인증 방식에 따라 반려견의 얼굴 또는 반려견의 코(비문) 등이 대상이 된다.That is, photographing a companion dog image through a camera is for registering authentication information of a target dog, and depending on the authentication method, the dog's face or the dog's nose (inscription) is targeted.
비문촬영부(300)는 도 3과 같이 도면상 본체(100) 좌측의 상측방향으로 돌출되게 배치되어 있으며, 반려견의 코를 소정 압력으로 가압한 상태로 코와 밀착되어 코의 융기부(21)에 형성된 평곡(B)(平谷)의 공간이 후술하는 비문가압패드(320)에 의해 메꿔지도록 하면서 반려견의 비문 이미지를 촬영한다.As shown in FIG. 3, the inscription photographing unit 300 is disposed to protrude upward on the left side of the main body 100 in the drawing, and is in close contact with the nose in a state in which the dog's nose is pressed with a predetermined pressure to form a raised portion 21 of the nose The inscription image of the companion dog is photographed while the space of the flat valley (B) formed in is filled by the inscription pressure pad 320 to be described later.
즉, 비문촬영부(300)를 기 등록된 비문 이미지의 위치에 해당하는 코 부위에 밀착시켜 소정 압력을 가하면서 촬영하는 것이다.That is, the inscription photographing unit 300 is photographed while applying a predetermined pressure by bringing the inscription photographing unit 300 in close contact with the nose corresponding to the position of the registered inscription image.
이때, 가해지는 압력은 탄성을 갖는 비문가압패드(320)의 표면이 융기부(21) 평곡(B)의 공간으로 밀려들어가면서 메꿔질 정도이면 충분하다(도 10 참조). At this time, the applied pressure is sufficient if the surface of the inscription pressure pad 320 having elasticity is filled while being pushed into the space of the flat valley (B) of the raised portion 21 (see FIG. 10).
그리고, 비문촬영부(300)는 반려견의 코에 밀착된 상태에서 촬영이 이루어져야 하기 때문에 반드시 본체(100)로부터 노출되게 설치되는 것이 바람직하며, 촬영된 반려견의 비문 이미지는 후술하는 제어부(400)로 전송된다.In addition, since the inscription photographing unit 300 must be photographed in a state in close contact with the dog's nose, it is preferable to be installed so as to be exposed from the main body 100, and the photographed inscription image of the dog is sent to the control unit 400 to be described later. is transmitted
위와 같은 비문촬영부(300)는 도 5 내지 도 10과 같이 프리즘(310)과, 비문가압패드(320) 및 패드탈착구(360)를 포함한다.The above inscription photographing unit 300 includes a prism 310, an inscription pressing pad 320, and a pad removal tool 360 as shown in FIGS. 5 to 10.
프리즘(310)은 도 6과 같이 도면상 좌측이 반려견의 비문과 접촉할 수 있도록 소정의 면적으로 편평하게 형성된 접촉면(311)을 가지고 있으며, 접촉면(311)의 타측으로는 후방의 광원(미 도시)으로부터 조사되는 빛을 굴절시키는 일정한 각도를 갖는 출사면(312)이 형성되어 있으며, 이 출사면(312)은 본체(100)의 내측으로 수용되어 있다.As shown in FIG. 6, the prism 310 has a contact surface 311 formed flat with a predetermined area so that the left side of the drawing can contact the inscription of a dog, and the other side of the contact surface 311 is a rear light source (not shown). ) An exit surface 312 having a certain angle that refracts light irradiated from is formed, and this exit surface 312 is accommodated inside the main body 100.
본체(100) 내부의 프리즘(310) 출사면(312) 일측에는 도시하지는 않았지만, 출사면(312)으로 출사되는 비문 영상을 결상시키기 위한 렌즈와 이미지센서가 배치되어 있으며, 이 이미지센서를 통해 비문 영상을 디지털 비문 이미지로 변환하여 출력함으로써 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311)에 접촉된 비문의 이미지가 만들어진다.Although not shown, on one side of the exit surface 312 of the prism 310 inside the main body 100, a lens and an image sensor for forming an image of an inscription image emitted to the exit surface 312 are disposed, and the inscription through the image sensor. By converting the image into a digital inscription image and outputting it, an image of the inscription in contact with the contact surface 311 of the prism 310 is created.
프리즘(310)을 통한 이미지를 만드는 방법은 일반적인 사항임에 따라 자세한 설명은 생략하기로 한다.Since the method of creating an image through the prism 310 is a general matter, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
비문가압패드(320)는 도 5, 도 6 및 도 8과 같이 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311)과 대응하는 면적을 유지하고, 접촉면(311)과 밀착된 상태로 배치되며 광원으로부터 조사되는 빛이 투과될 수 있도록 투과율이 우수한 투명재질로 형성되어 있다.The inscription pressure pad 320 maintains an area corresponding to the contact surface 311 of the prism 310, as shown in FIGS. 5, 6 and 8, and is disposed in close contact with the contact surface 311, and the light emitted from the light source It is formed of a transparent material with excellent transmittance so that it can be transmitted.
또한, 비문가압패드(320)는 전면과 후면이 편평한 면을 이루고 있으며, 반려견의 비문 즉 코에 일정한 압력으로 밀착될 때 융기부(21)의 평곡(B)(平谷)을 메꾸기 위해 물리적으로 탄성 변형되면서 코에 밀착될 수 있도록 플렉시블한 탄성재질로 형성된다.In addition, the inscription pressure pad 320 has a flat surface on the front and back, and is physically elastic to fill the flatness (B) of the ridge 21 when it is in close contact with the dog's inscription, that is, the nose, with a constant pressure It is formed of a flexible elastic material so that it can be in close contact with the nose while being deformed.
즉, 비문가압패드(320)는 투명한 탄성재질로 제작된 상태로 프리즘(310)의 외측인 접촉면(311)에 배치되어 비문 촬영을 위해 프리즘(310)을 비문에 소정의 압력으로 가압하여 밀착시킬 때, 가압되는 과정에서 반려견 코의 융기부(21)에 형성된 평곡(B)들의 공간을 도 10과 같이 메꾸면서 밀착되는 것이다.That is, the inscription pressure pad 320 is made of a transparent elastic material and is placed on the contact surface 311, which is the outer side of the prism 310, to press the prism 310 to the inscription with a predetermined pressure for close contact with the inscription. When pressurized, the space of the flat valleys (B) formed on the ridge 21 of the dog's nose is filled and adhered to as shown in FIG. 10.
이렇게 되면, 종래와 같이 평곡(B)이 밀폐됨으로써 평곡(B)에 잔존하는 공기가 빛을 반사시켜 융기부(21)의 형상을 외곡시키는 문제가 해결되기 때문에 정확한 비문 이미지를 획득할 수 있다(도 4 참조).In this case, since the flat valley (B) is sealed as in the prior art, the problem of distorting the shape of the raised portion 21 by reflecting light by the air remaining in the flat valley (B) is solved, so an accurate inscription image can be obtained ( see Figure 4).
한편, 비문가압패드(320)는 1mm~0.7mm 범위의 두께를 유지하는 것이 바람직한데, 이는 비문가압패드(320)의 두께가 1mm 이상이면 탄성 변형이 이루어질 때 투과되는 빛의 굴절이 심하게 일어나 비문 이미지의 외곡이 발생하게 되고, 반대로 0.7mm 이하이면 비문가압패드(320)의 두께가 얇아지기 때문에 가압에 의한 탄성 변형이 적어 평곡(B)의 메꿈이 제대로 이루어지지 못하는 문제가 발생하기 때문이다.On the other hand, it is preferable to maintain the thickness of the inscription pressure pad 320 in the range of 1 mm to 0.7 mm, which means that when the thickness of the inscription pressure pad 320 is 1 mm or more, the refraction of transmitted light occurs severely when elastic deformation is made. This is because the distortion of the image occurs, and on the contrary, if the thickness of the inscription pressure pad 320 is less than 0.7 mm, the elastic deformation caused by pressing is small, so that the filling of the flat curve (B) is not properly performed.
또한, 비문가압패드(320)는 실리콘 또는 우레탄 재질로 제작될 수도 있으며, 빛의 투과와 탄성을 가질수만 있다면 재질의 종류를 한정하지 않는다.In addition, the inscription pressure pad 320 may be made of silicone or urethane material, and the type of material is not limited as long as it can have light transmission and elasticity.
더하여, 비문가압패드(320)의 후면에는 에어흡착로(321)가 형성되는데, 에어흡착로(321)에 대해서는 후술하기로 한다.In addition, an air adsorption path 321 is formed on the rear surface of the inscription pressure pad 320, and the air adsorption path 321 will be described later.

테이퍼면(350)은 패드삽입단(340)으로부터 후방을 향하여 소정 각도로 경사지게 연장되며, 도 8과 같이 프리즘(310)의 출사면(312) 일단이 삽입되어 결합될 수 있도록 한다.The tapered surface 350 obliquely extends from the pad insertion end 340 toward the rear at a predetermined angle, and allows one end of the exit surface 312 of the prism 310 to be inserted and coupled as shown in FIG. 8 .
여기서, 테이퍼면(350)의 경사각도는 프리즘(310) 출사면(312)의 경사도와 대응되게 형성됨은 물론이다.Here, the inclination angle of the tapered surface 350 is formed to correspond to the inclination of the exit surface 312 of the prism 310, of course.
위와 같이, 프리즘(310)이 테이퍼면(350)에 결합되면, 패드삽입단(340)에 삽입된 비문가압패드(320)의 일면이 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311)과 접촉되기 때문에 서로 밀착된 상태를 유지하게 된다.As described above, when the prism 310 is coupled to the tapered surface 350, one side of the inscription pressure pad 320 inserted into the pad insertion end 340 comes into contact with the contact surface 311 of the prism 310, so that they are in close contact with each other. will keep the status quo.
더하여, 비문가압패드(320)는 패드탈착구(360)의 패드삽입단(340)에 삽입될 때 탄성을 갖는 플렉시블한 재질임에도 손쉬운 삽입과, 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311) 표면에 진공으로 접촉된 상태를 유지하게 된다.In addition, the inscription pressure pad 320 is easy insertion and vacuum on the contact surface 311 surface of the prism 310 even though it is a flexible material having elasticity when inserted into the pad insertion end 340 of the pad removal port 360. stay in contact.
이를 위해, 패드탈착구(360)의 바디(330) 내부에는 플렉시블한 탄성을 갖는 비문가압패드(320)가 삽입홈(331)을 통해 패드삽입단(340)으로 삽입될 때 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311)과 슬립이 이루어지도록 도 9와 같이 접촉면(311)의 표면으로 에어를 분사하여 에어층을 형성하는 에어유동로(333)가 형성된다.To this end, when the inscription pressure pad 320 having a flexible elasticity is inserted into the pad insertion end 340 through the insertion groove 331 inside the body 330 of the pad removal port 360, the prism 310 An air flow path 333 is formed to form an air layer by spraying air to the surface of the contact surface 311 as shown in FIG. 9 so that the contact surface 311 slips.
에어유동로(333)는 외부로부터 공급되는 에어가 유동할 수 있도록 소정의 공간을 유지하고 있으며, 개구부(332)를 형성하는 바디(330)의 둘레를 따라 형성된다. The air flow path 333 maintains a predetermined space so that air supplied from the outside can flow, and is formed along the circumference of the body 330 forming the opening 332 .
에어유동로(333)에는 에어를 공급 또는 석션하기 위한 적어도 하나의 에어배관이 연결됨은 물론이다.Of course, at least one air pipe for supplying or suctioning air is connected to the air flow path 333 .
이와 함께, 플렉시블한 탄성을 갖는 비문가압패드(320)의 일면(프리즘의 접촉면과 접촉되는 면)에는 도 7과 같이 둘레방향을 따라 형성되어 바디(330)의 에어유동로(333)와 연통되며, 에어유동로(333)의 석션을 통해 패드탈착구(360)의 패드삽입단(340)에 삽입된 비문가압패드(320)를 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311)과 진공으로 밀착시키는 에어흡착로(321)가 형성된다.Along with this, one surface (surface in contact with the contact surface of the prism) of the inscription pressure pad 320 having flexible elasticity is formed along the circumferential direction as shown in FIG. 7 and communicates with the air flow path 333 of the body 330. , Air adsorption by which the inscription pressure pad 320 inserted into the pad insertion end 340 of the pad removal port 360 is brought into close contact with the contact surface 311 of the prism 310 by vacuum through the suction of the air flow path 333 A furnace 321 is formed.
이때, 에어흡착로(321)는 에어가 유동할 수 있도록 함몰된 홈으로 형성되며, 에어흡착로(321)로부터 연장되어 에어유동로(333) 측으로 에어의 유동이 이루어질 수 있도록 복수개의 연통로(322)가 형성되어 있다.At this time, the air adsorption path 321 is formed as a recessed groove to allow air to flow, and a plurality of communication passages ( 322) is formed.
이 복수개의 연통로(322)는 비문가압패드(320)가 패드삽입단(340)에 삽입됨과 동시에 도 8과 같이 바디(330)의 에어유통로와 연통된다.The plurality of communication passages 322 communicate with the air distribution passage of the body 330 as shown in FIG. 8 at the same time that the inscription pressure pad 320 is inserted into the pad insertion end 340.
위와 같은 패드탈착구(360)의 에어유동로(333)와 비문가압패드(320)의 에어흡착로(321)는, 비문가압패드(320)가 패드탈착구(360)의 패드삽입단(340)에 삽입될 때 에어유동로(333)를 통해 프리즘(310)의 접촉면(311) 표면으로 에어를 분사하여 에어층을 형성함으로써 얇고 플렉시블한 탄성을 갖는 비문가압패드(320)가 에어층에 의해 접촉면(311)과 접촉되지 않은 상태로 삽입이 진행될 수 있도록 하고, 더하여 비문가압패드(320)의 삽입이 완료된 상태에서는 에어유동로(333)를 통해 에어흡착로(321) 내의 에어를 석션하여 에어흡착로(321)와 접촉면(311)이 진공으로 접촉되도록 함으로써 비문가압패드(320)와 접촉면(311)의 안정적인 접촉상태를 유지시킨다.The air flow path 333 of the pad removal port 360 and the air adsorption path 321 of the inscription pressure pad 320 as above, the inscription pressure pad 320 is the pad insertion end 340 of the pad detachment port 360 ) When inserted into the inscription pressure pad 320 having thin and flexible elasticity by spraying air to the surface of the contact surface 311 of the prism 310 through the air flow path 333 to form an air layer, The insertion can proceed without contact with the contact surface 311, and in addition, when the insertion of the inscription pressure pad 320 is completed, the air in the air adsorption path 321 is suctioned through the air flow path 333 to allow the air to be inserted.

In addition, when trying to withdraw from the pad removal port 360 to remove and replace the foreign matter of the inscription pressure pad 320, air is supplied to the air adsorption passage 321 to release the vacuum applied to the air adsorption passage 321 At the same time, after separating from the contact surface 311 of the prism 310, the inscription pressure pad 320 can be easily withdrawn.
본 실시예에서는 에어흡착로(321)가 비문가압패드(320)의 일면에 둘레를 따라 사각 형태로 형성된 것으로 도시하였으나, 에어유동로(333)와 연통되는 구조라면 다양하게 형성될 수도 있다.In this embodiment, the air adsorption path 321 is shown as being formed in a rectangular shape along the circumference on one side of the inscription pressure pad 320, but may be formed in various ways if it is in communication with the air flow path 333.
제어부(400)는 카메라부(200), 비문촬영부(300), 작동버튼(111) 및 영상표시부(113)와 전기적으로 연결된 상태로 본체(100) 내부에 설치된다.The control unit 400 is installed inside the main body 100 while being electrically connected to the camera unit 200, the inscription photographing unit 300, the operation button 111 and the image display unit 113.
제어부(400)는 카메라부(200)를 통해 촬영된 반려견의 얼굴 및 코의 이미지 데이터 또는 비문촬영부(300)를 통해 촬영된 비문 이미지 데이터를 추출하여 유,무선으로 연결된 관리서버로 전송하여 관리서버를 통해 등록이 이루어지도록 하고, 사전에 등록된 반려견의 얼굴, 코 형상 및 비문 이미지 데이터를 비교하여 인증한다.The control unit 400 extracts image data of the dog's face and nose photographed through the camera unit 200 or inscription image data photographed through the inscription photographing unit 300 and transmits it to a management server connected by wire or wirelessly for management. Registration is made through the server, and authentication is performed by comparing the dog's face, nose shape, and inscription image data registered in advance.
즉, 제어부(400)는 등록된 이미지가 인증을 위해 촬영된 이미지와 일치되는가를 판독하는 것이다.That is, the controller 400 reads whether the registered image matches the captured image for authentication.
위와 같은 제어부(400)는 통상적으로 반려견의 인증에 적용되는 기술임에 따라 자세한 설명은 생략하기로 한다.Since the control unit 400 as described above is a technology generally applied to authentication of companion dogs, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
한편, 본체(100)의 도면상 우측 경사면에는 카메라부(200) 및 비문촬영부(300)를 통해 획득된 이미지를 표시하는 영상표시부(113)가 더 구비될 수도 있다.On the other hand, the image display unit 113 for displaying the image acquired through the camera unit 200 and the inscription photographing unit 300 may be further provided on the right inclined surface of the main body 100 in the drawing.
영상표시부(113)는 제어부(400)와 전기적으로 연결되며, 사용자가 표시되는 영상을 확인하면서 촬영이 이루어질 수 있도록 하고, 촬영이 완료된 영상 이미지를 확인할 수 있도록 한다.The image display unit 113 is electrically connected to the control unit 400 and allows the user to take pictures while checking the displayed image and to check the video image that has been taken.
이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명에 따른 비문리더기(500)를 이용하여 비문 이미지를 획득하는 과정을 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, a process of acquiring an inscription image using the inscription reader 500 according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
먼저, 인증대상이 되는 반려견을 위치시키고, 비문리더기(500) 손잡이(110)를 파지한 상태에서 비문촬영부(300)를 반려견의 코에 소정의 압력을 가하여 밀착시킨다.First, the companion dog to be authenticated is placed, and in a state of holding the handle 110 of the inscription reader 500, the inscription photographing unit 300 is brought into close contact with the dog's nose by applying a predetermined pressure.
이때, 비문가압패드(320)는 반려견의 코와 밀착을 이루게 되고, 가해지는 압력에 의해 도 10의 확대도와 같이 탄성 변형되면서 평곡(B)의 홈에 해당하는 공간들을 메꾸게 된다.At this time, the inscription pressure pad 320 comes into close contact with the dog's nose, and is elastically deformed as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 10 by the applied pressure to fill the spaces corresponding to the grooves of the flat valley (B).
위와 같은 상태에서 작동버튼(111)을 누르게 되면, 광원으로부터 빛이 비문을 향해 조사되고, 조사된 빛은 비문에 반사되어 프리즘(310)의 출사면(312)에 비문 영상을 결상시키면서 렌즈와 이미지센서를 통해 비문 영상을 비문 이미지로 변환하여 출력하게 된다. When the operating button 111 is pressed in the above state, light from the light source is irradiated toward the inscription, and the irradiated light is reflected on the inscription, forming an image of the inscription on the exit surface 312 of the prism 310 while forming a lens and an image. Through the sensor, the inscription image is converted into an inscription image and output.
이때, 융기부(21) 평곡(B)의 깊이는 통상 1mm 이내로 형성되기 때문에, 평곡(B)이 비문가압패드(320)에 의해 완전하게 메꿔지지 않더라도 획득된 비문 이미지의 신뢰는 가능하다. 예를 들어, 평곡(B)의 깊이가 0.7mm일 경우 비문가압패드(320)에 의해 메꿔지는 깊이가 0.5mm로 0.2mm 만큼의 갭이 발생하더라도 0.2mm의 공간에 잔존하는 공기층은 촬영에 거의 영향을 주지 않기 때문이다.At this time, since the depth of the flat valley (B) of the raised portion 21 is usually formed within 1 mm, even if the plain valley (B) is not completely filled by the inscription pressure pad 320, the reliability of the obtained inscription image is possible. For example, if the depth of the flat valley (B) is 0.7 mm, even if the depth filled by the inscription pressure pad 320 is 0.5 mm and a gap of 0.2 mm occurs, the air layer remaining in the space of 0.2 mm is almost because it doesn't affect
이후, 이미지센서를 통해 변환된 비문 이미지는 제어부(400)로 전송되고, 제어부(400)는 기 등록된 비문 이미지와 인증을 위해 촬영된 비문 이미지가 일치되는가를 판독하여 영상표시부(113)를 통해 인증여부를 표시한다.Thereafter, the inscription image converted through the image sensor is transmitted to the control unit 400, and the control unit 400 reads whether the registered inscription image and the inscription image taken for authentication match and displays the inscription through the image display unit 113. Indicates authentication status.
지금까지 서술된 바와 같이 본 발명의 반려동물용 접촉식 비문리더기는, 접촉식 반려동물의 비문 촬영시 비문의 융기부에 다양하게 형성된 평곡(平谷)이 비문가압패드에 의해 메꿔지도록 함으로써, 평곡의 형상 또는 반려동물의 컨디션에 상관없이 상시 정확한 비문 영상 획득이 가능하기 때문에 인증을 위한 영상이 외곡되는 것을 원천적으로 차단하는 탁월한 효과가 있다.As described so far, the contact-type inscription reader for companion animals of the present invention allows the flat valleys formed in various ways on the ridge of the inscription to be filled by the inscription pressure pad when photographing the inscription of the contact-type companion animal. Since it is always possible to obtain an accurate inscription image regardless of the shape or condition of the companion animal, it has an excellent effect of fundamentally blocking the image for authentication from being distorted.
또한, 비문가압패드가 에어에 의해 프리즘 표면과 진공으로 완벽하게 밀착된 상태를 이루기 때문에 촬영시 조사 빛이 굴절되는 것을 차단하는 효과가 있다.In addition, since the inscription pressure pad is in perfect contact with the prism surface and vacuum by air, it has an effect of blocking irradiation light from being refracted during shooting.
또한, 비문가압패드가 에어의 분사와 석션을 통해 탈착되기 때문에 유지보수 및 교체가 손쉽게 이루어지는 구조적인 효과 또한 탁월하다.In addition, since the inscription pressure pad is detached through air injection and suction, the structural effect of easy maintenance and replacement is also excellent.
