Information-holding unit
View Patent ↗An information-holding unit is provided which can minimize increase in cost and which can increase storage capacity as a whole without changing information transferring time. The information-holding unit comprises a plurality of RFID tags with desired specific information stored therein, and a tool holder as a mounting body for mounting these plural RFID tags.
1. An information-holding unit comprising:
a plurality of information carriers with specific different information stored in each, at least one of the information carriers storing information about the information-holding unit for a machine to use and another one of the information carriers storing information about reference information of the information-holding unit for a human to use, colors of the information carriers being different from one another; and
a mounting body, said mounting body having a rotation axis and rotating thereabout at speeds sufficient to effect cutting operations, the mounting body being symmetrical about said rotation axis to avoid imbalance when rotating, the information carriers being mounted on said mounting body,
wherein each of the information carriers is an RFID tag, the information carriers rotate about the rotation axis of said mounting body, the information carriers are mounted symmetrically with respect to the rotation axis, and the information carriers are mounted on the mounting body at balanced positions to minimize rotation imbalance in the unit, and
wherein the mounting body is any one of a work mounting jig, a cutter, a cutter cartridge, or a tool holder.
2. The information-holding unit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the information carriers stores a single code of the information-holding unit.
3. The information-holding unit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the information carriers stores information about a system using the information-holding unit.
4. The information-holding unit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the information carriers stores information about a user of the information-holding unit and a system using the information-holding unit.
5. The information-holding unit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the information carriers stores information about a user of the information-holding unit.
6. The information-holding unit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the information carriers stores information about a system using the information-holding unit, and at least another one of the information carriers stores information about a user of the information-holding unit and/or the system using the information-holding unit.
7. An information-holding unit comprising:
a plurality of information carriers with specific different information stored in each, and
a mounting body, said mounting body having a rotation axis and rotating thereabout at speeds sufficient to effect cutting operations, the mounting body being symmetrical about said rotation axis to avoid imbalance when rotating, the information carriers being mounted thereon,
wherein each of the information carriers is an RFID tag, at least one of the information carriers storing information about the information-holding unit, and at least one of the information carriers storing information about both a user of the information-holding unit and a system using the information-holding and, unit
wherein the mounting body is any one of a work mounting jig, a cutter, a cutter cartridge, or a tool holder.
