Problems solved by technology

[0003]Now there are design concepts of smart refrigerators. These designs add computing modules and input devices to the refrigerator to realize the control of refrigerator food inventory and automatic order placement Replenishment function, but judging from the currently published smart refrigerator design and smart refrigerator-related patents, these products require users to frequently enter and correct food inventory data, and the refrigerator is used by multiple users at the same time. When the storage volume is large and the inventory turnover is fast, the inventory data entry work will be very complicated and error-prone
[0004] Regarding the inventory management of food purchased by households, the existing technology also has a pure software method of keeping accounts through the merchant network platform, but different merchants have different network platforms and data interfaces. Difficult to achieve data interconnection, such methods are not practical when users buy food from multiple merchants
[0005] Patent Publication No. 103903154A discloses an online shopping system for a smart refrigerator, which can be used for online shopping through the online shopping terminal built into the refrigerator. However, most of the food stored in the refrigerator is fresh products, and the quality of the products of the same variety at the same place at the same time may not be the same. There is a big difference, so the existing customer purchasing psychology still tends to choose and buy on the spot, and buying fresh food from online shopping platforms still does not conform to the habit of mainstream families purchasing fresh food

Embodiment 1

[0047] Embodiment 1. Merchant member purchase records are automatically transferred to refrigerator food inventory data:

[0048] Such as figure 1 , figure 2 As shown, members of a family have two membership accounts A and B. Member account A belongs to merchant A, and member account B belongs to merchant B. When a family member uses member account A to purchase food at a physical store of merchant A, This physical store purchase behavior 21 generates a consumption record 25 of merchant A, and when family members use membership account B to purchase food on the online shopping platform of merchant B, this online shopping behavior 22 generates a consumption record 26 of merchant B, consumption record 25 and consumption The record 26 is synchronously pushed to the smart refrigerator module 3 through the Internet, and the data of different merchants are integrated through the smart refrigerator module 3 and added to the refrigerator food inventory data.

Embodiment 2

[0049] Embodiment 2. Non-merchant member purchase records manually enter refrigerator food inventory data:

[0050] Such as figure 1 , figure 2 As shown, when a family member purchases food in a shopping mall other than merchant A and merchant B, since the member account cannot be used, this consumption will form a non-member merchant purchase behavior 24, and the family member can use the data input part 6 of the smart refrigerator module 3 Enter the quantity and product name of food purchased in the purchase behavior 24 of the non-member merchant into the smart refrigerator module 3 .

Embodiment 3

[0051] Embodiment 3. Non-merchant member purchase records are entered into refrigerator food inventory data through barcode identification:

[0052] When family members regularly purchase behaviors 24 from non-member merchants, for example, when arranging a nanny to go to a non-member store to buy apples twice a week and each purchase is ten such purchases, the data output of the smart refrigerator module 3 can be used in advance. The barcode module at the bottom outputs a barcode label to the babysitter. The barcode identification content on the label is ten apples, and the label expiration time and label number are attached. When the babysitter completes the purchase, use the data input part 6 of the smart refrigerator module 3 to identify the barcode label , the data input unit 6 recognizes that the identification content of this barcode label is ten apples, adds ten apples in the refrigerator food inventory data, and then marks the label number as used, and the nurse settle...

Abstract

The invention discloses a food management system based on a smart refrigerator. The food management system based on a smart refrigerator includes a smart refrigerator and a remote merchant server; the smart refrigerator includes a refrigerator and a smart refrigerator module with a built-in member account, and the smart refrigerator The module includes a data input part, a data output part, a data management part and a network connection part. The smart refrigerator module is connected to the Internet through the network connection part, and connected to the remote merchant server with the built-in merchant member account, and performs remote data synchronization via the Internet. The smart refrigerator module stores food inventory data, and the data generation methods include remote consumption data synchronization, manual input by users, and inventory correction. The invention optimizes the inventory data management of the smart refrigerator, without the need for users to frequently input food inventory data, that is, the smart refrigerator can be used as the core to manage and control the inventory, purchase and delivery of stored food.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a management system, in particular to a food management system based on an intelligent refrigerator. Background technique [0002] With the acceleration of the pace of life in modern society, people tend to buy food in a one-stop way. They purchase a large amount of food in the supermarket and store it in the family refrigerator. This makes the food stock of the family refrigerator more and more large. Also constantly increasing, cause certain difficulty for people to the inventory management of refrigerator food, if can't arrange the food stored in refrigerator in time, then be easy to occur the phenomenon of food deterioration and required food stock shortage. Such problems exist not only in households, but also in the internal canteens of large enterprises and the management of refrigerated food in small stores. [0003] Now there are design concepts of smart refrigerators. These designs realize the control of refrigerator ...
