International Classification:

G06K 7/10

Abstract:

An RFID encoder is used in conjunction with a barcode print and apply system. The RFID encoder utilizes information obtained from a data stream from a host computer, from a corresponding barcode label, or other source to program an RFID label. The programmed label can then be applied with an integrated applicator or an external applicator. The RFID encoder can also verify that an RFID tag or label has been properly encoded and has the same content as the corresponding barcode label. The RFID can further verify that the barcode has been properly printed. If both barcode and RFID tag contain the correct data, both types of labels are attached to a package, enabling the package to be read optically and with radio frequency signals.

US Classification:

23546201, 23546207, 23546213, 340 1051

Abstract:

An RFID print system includes an RFID printer and reader, a host computer that transmits a data stream containing instructions or commands to the RFID printer for encoding an RFID tag, and a data manager that receives EPC data or other data from the encoded tag. The data manager transmits the data to the host computer, which can then compare what was encoded to what was intended to be encoded. The host computer can then transmit signals to other devices in the system for appropriate action, such as when the encoded tag is defective.

Filed:

Mar 2, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/396344

Inventors:

Van Loi Le - Mission Viejo CA, US

International Classification:

B65C 9/42

US Classification:

156360, 156 64, 156235, 156256, 156260, 156378, 156379, 156510, 156538, 156539, 156552, 156556, 156566, 156DIG 2, 156DIG 25, 156DIG 27, 156DIG 44, 156DIG 45, 156DIG 47

Abstract:

A printer system includes a print and apply device that receives a single data stream containing label printing/encoding data and positioning data. The print and apply device transmits label data to a printer/encoder portion of the system and positioning data to motors that move the system. Once the printer portion and the applicator portion have indicated they are ready, a signal is sent to apply the label. The label can be applied anywhere in the X, Y, and/or Z directions on a package.

International Classification:

B65C 9/46

B65C 9/40
B65C 9/04

Abstract:

An improved print and apply device that receives a single data stream containing label printing/encoding data and positioning data. The single data stream may comprise data relating to the skew angle of the package. The print and apply device transmits label data to a printer/encoder portion of the system and positioning data to motors that move the system. Once the printer portion and the applicator portion have indicated they are ready, a signal is sent to apply the label. Supplemental motors can adjust the package in the X, Y, and/or Z directions until the skew angle is determined to be within an acceptable approach to zero. The label can be applied anywhere in the X, Y, and/or Z directions on a package.

B65C 9/46

Abstract:

A printer system is disclosed comprising: a first print and apply device configured to print or encode a label and apply one or more label to one or more packages, wherein the device has a printer/encoder portion and an applicator portion; a first motor to move the print and apply device in an X-direction; a second motor to move the print and apply device in a Y-direction; third motor to move the print and apply device in a Z-direction; a second print and apply device configured to print or encode a second label and apply the one or more label to the one or more package, wherein the device has a printer/encoder portion and an applicator portion; a first motor to move the print and apply device in an X-direction; a second motor to move the print and apply device in a Y-direction; a third motor to move the print and apply device in a Z-direction; a switching device that delivers the one or more packages to the first or second print and apply device on request; a controller coupled to the printer system and having a single interface configured to receive a single data stream comprising label data and positioning data from a single data stream; and a command parser configured to receive the single data stream and parse label data to the printer/encoder portion and positioning data to the applicator portion, In one embodiment, the switching device is a robotic arm. In one embodiment, the switching device is a conveyor belt system. In one embodiment, the switch device is requested to deliver to the first or second print and apply device when either the first or second print and apply device is low on ink.
