Abstract

The present invention provides a system for monitoring status of goods in logistics process, including a power module, a main control module, a communication module, a status sensor, a terminal electronic device and a data center. The power module supplies power to the main control module, the communication module, and the status sensor, respectively. The status sensor detects the goods status information and transmits the goods status information to the main control module, the main control module then transmits the goods status information to the data center directly or indirectly via the communication module, and then the monitoring information is transmitted from the data center to the terminal electronic device. Finally, the monitoring information is displayed by the terminal electronic device, and the monitoring information is analyzed and processed by the data center. The status monitoring device can be repeatedly used.

Claims

1. A system for monitoring status of goods in a logistics process, comprising a power module, a main control module, a communication module, a status sensor, a terminal electronic device and a data center;

wherein the power module supplies power to the main control module, the communication module, and the status sensor, respectively;

and the status sensor detects goods status information and transmits the goods status information to the main control module, the main control module then transmits the goods status information to the data center directly or indirectly via the communication module, and then the goods status information is transmitted from the data center to the terminal electronic device, finally the goods status information is displayed by the terminal electronic device;

wherein the status sensor comprises a temperature and humidity measurement module and an impact inclination measurement module;

wherein the impact inclination measurement module comprises an impact force measurement module and an inclination measurement module;

wherein the impact force measurement module is used to collect an external impact force signal and transmit the external impact force signal to the main control module;

and the inclination measurement module is installed on a monitored object and monitor an incline angle signal of the monitored object in real time, and then transmit the incline angle signal to the main control module.

2. The system according to claim 1, wherein the terminal electronic device is a mobile terminal or a fixed terminal.

3. The system according to claim 2, wherein an indirect transmission of the communication module refers to transmitting the goods status information to the data center through the terminal electronic device.

4. The system according to claim 1, wherein a direct transmission of the communication module refers to transmitting the goods status information to the data center through a narrow band communication technology.

5. The system according to claim 1, wherein the power module is an on-board power module, a solar module or a battery module.

6. The system according to claim 1, wherein the main control module further comprises a warning feedback module for issuing a warning signal to abnormal data detected by the status sensor.

7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the main control module further comprises a real-time clock module and a data storage module;

and wherein the real-time clock module is used to acquire a real-time time signal and transmit the real-time time signal to the main control module.
