3-in-1 barcode for identifying commodity
First Claim
1. A 3-in-1 barcode for identifying an commodity, comprising:
- (1) acquiring a first and second group of data in the form of 13-digit decimal number that are input into a computer for being processed;
(2) determining whether the first group of data satisfies an global universal EAN-13 encoding principle or not, and whether the second group of data satisfies a commodity flow number encoding principle or not, and if yes, proceeding to the next step;
otherwise, generating an error prompt;
(3) performing an encryption operation on the first group of data satisfying the EAN-13 encoding principle and the second group of data satisfying the commodity flow number encoding principle through a commercial cipher algorithm, and generating a 13-digit decimal verification code data, i.e., the third group of data;
(4) dividing the first group of data, the second group of data, and the third group of data into three rows by the computer, so as to obtain a 3-in-1 barcode;
(5) storing and printing the 3-in-1 barcode divided into three rows by the computer, for machine identification.

Abstract
A 3-in-1 barcode for identifying a commodity, involving a commercial cipher technology, is implemented through the following steps: acquiring a first and second group of data in the form of 13-digit decimal number that are input into a computer for being processed; determining whether the first group of data satisfies an EAN-13 encoding principle or not, and whether the second group of data satisfies an commodity flow number encoding principle or not, if yes, proceeding to the next step, otherwise, generating an error prompt; performing an encryption operation on the first group of data satisfying the EAN-13 encoding principle and the second group of data satisfying the commodity flow number encoding principle through a commercial cipher algorithm, and generating a 13-digit decimal verification code data; dividing the first group of data, the second group of data, and the verification code data into three rows by the computer; and storing and printing the 3-in-1 barcode divided into three rows by the computer, for machine identification. The advantage of the present invention lies in that the 3-in-1 barcode has a plain part and a cipher part, which is easily identified by both the users and consumers, and cannot be easily counterfeited and forged.
