Electronic shelf label system

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel electronic shelf label system which is characterized by comprising an electronic shelf label server, base station equipment and a plurality of electronic shelf labels, wherein the electronic shelf label server has a function of monitoring a point-of-sale (POS) settlement system in real time; a wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) communication mode and an Ethernet power supply mode are adopted in the base station equipment and are convenient to implement; the electronic shelf labels display colorful information by using colorful electronic paper; the service life of the electronic shelf labels is prolonged by using a solar battery; meanwhile, each electronic shelf label has an anti-theft function, and can be prevented from being moved illegally or lost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a novel electronic shelf label system. Background technique [0002] For a long time, the traditional retail industry has used paper price tags to display commodity prices. However, with the development of the retail industry, the variety of commodities has continued to increase, and the demand for price changes caused by frequent various promotional activities has delayed the manual modification of price tags. And error rate, etc., the shortcomings of paper price tags in these aspects are becoming more and more obvious. [0003] In order to solve the above problems, some electronic shelf label systems have emerged. For example, in the public document with the publication number CN201654813U, an electronic shelf label system is described, which adopts a two-level point-to-multipoint system in which multiple management terminals are configured under one server, and each management terminal manages multiple price tag terminals. ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

First, the price displayed on the price tag cannot be synchronized with the settlement system, and there will still be cases where the settlement price is different from the displayed price

Second, the management terminal and the server are connected by Ethernet, and power supply needs to be provided at the same time. For each management terminal, two external cables are required. For mature stores, the construction is very difficult

Third, although the price tag uses a rechargeable battery, it still needs to be removed and charged from time to time. In stores with a large number of price tags, it is cumbersome to use

Fourth, ordinary electronic paper and low-power LCD display are black and white, and cannot provide effective reminders for some special products, such as promotions
