A MANUFACTURER SYSTEM FOR ELECTRONIC CERTIFICATE-BASED GOODS
DISTRIBUTION
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of the Internet, and in
particular to an article
circulation system based on electronic certificates.
Background Technology
10002] With the breakthrough of network, communication and information
technology, e-
commerce came into being and developed rapidly, changing people's lives
rapidly and promoting
the evolution of social business form. However, since the overall economy is
still free from the
threshold of e-commerce, product is often placed in the physical store, or
placed in a picture way in
the network store, forming a "shop-based" sales model. The reputation, quality
and authenticity of
the purchased commodity are mainly based on factors such as the scale and
reputation of the
physical shops or online shops, but are hardly related to the quality of the
commodity themselves
and the manufacturers. For example, in real life, it is hard for people to
believe that a branded
product sold from a stall is genuine, so people will buy the original genuine
product in a specialty
store. Because the buyers are more willing to believe that the products sold
in the specialty store are
genuine, the traditional purchase and sale transaction mainly depends on
corresponding specialty
stores' sales sites for "shop -based" product transactions. Well-known stores,
and even large-scale
e-commerce platforms, sell fake goods that are high quality imitations. This
is often disclosed and
reported in newspapers and other media.
10003] In view of this, it is necessary to design a system or device that
can integrate all the real
information about the commodity under the transaction, complete with
transaction rules and
transaction service, and create an environment that can give intelligent and
independent trading of
the commodity, so that the existing trading mode can be separated from the
"store standard" to
realize the transaction mode of "object standard". This system will create a
transaction system
where who sells the commodity is not the most important factor, but rather who
produced the
commodity is. The producer is important to protect consumers on the network by
ensuring the
purchased commodity is genuine, and eliminate counterfeiting in online
shopping. Well-known
stores, and even large-scale e-commerce platforms, can realize the benefits of
direct marketing of
the entire domain by affixing their own intelligent electronic transactions on
the commodity.
Summary of
10004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that,
in view of the
limitation of certain sales places in the circulation of commodities in the
existing technology as
1
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-10-07
described above, the integration and recording mechanism of transaction
information is not perfect.
The mechanism of verification of delivery, and of delivery of commodities, is
not perfect, and
cannot fully realize of intelligent autonomous transactions of commodities.
The present invention
provides a circulation system of commodities based on electronic certificate.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention for solving
the technical
problem is as follows: An article circulation system based on an electronic
certificate is constructed,
comprising a manufacturer system, a client terminal communicatively connected
to the
manufacturer's system, a logistics terminal communicatively connected to the
manufacturer system,
and a vendor system.
[0006] The vendor system is used for importing an electronic certificate
that includes at least an
article attribute with a name and an amount to generate an electronic
certificate, storing an
electronic certificate of writeable information, and publishing the electronic
certificate via the
Internet.
[0007] The client terminal is used to acquire the electronic certificate
via the Internet, write a
destination of the logistics delivery in the electronic certificate, select
preset logistics support
information to determine the logistics delivery information, and according to
the amount of money
corresponding to the payment of payment commitments or payment.
[0008] After receiving payment commitment or completing payment, the
logistics terminal
extracts an item corresponding to the attribute of the item and directs the
item to move to the
destination, and delivers the receipt information to the manufacturer system.
[0009] In the system of the present invention, the manufacturer system
includes an import
module, a storage module, an issuing module and a publishing module.
[0010] The import module is used to import at least an article attribute
with a name and an
amount of money and has at least one payment method information, to generate
an electronic
certificate.
[0011] The storage module is used to store an electronic certificate of
writeable information,
wherein the electronic certificate includes at least an article attribute with
a name and an amount
and has at least one payment method information.
[0012] The issuing module is used to issue the electronic certificate.
[0013] The publishing module is used to publish the electronic certificate
via the Internet.
[0014] In the system of the present invention, the vendor system further
includes a delivery
code issuing module and a receipt code issuing module.
[0015] The delivery code issuing module is used for delivering a pick-up
code to the logistics
terminal;
[0016] The receipt code issuing module is used to deliver a receipt code to
the client terminal.

[0017] In the system of the present invention, the client terminal is
further configured to provide
the receipt terminal with the receipt code after the article is moved to the
destination.
[0018] In the system of the present invention, the logistics terminal
includes a pick-up module,
a shipping module, and a signing module, wherein:
[0019] The pick-up module is used to receive the pick-up code and extract
an item
corresponding to the item attribute according to the pick-up code.
[0020] The shipping module is used for guiding the article to move to the
destination;
[0021] The signing module is used to deliver the receipt information to the
manufacturer system
according to the receipt code.
[0022] In the system of the present invention, the vendor system further
includes a countdown
module.
[0023] The countdown module is used to write countdown time information to
the electronic
certificate, where the countdown time infoimation includes a payment countdown
and / or a
delivery countdown and / or an arrival countdown generated according to a
transaction agreement.
[0024] In the system of the present invention, the vendor system further
includes an insurance
module;
[0025] The insurance module is used to write the electronic certificate
into the electronic
insurance contract information.
[0026] In the system of the present invention, the manufacturer system
includes a public
authority module;
[0027] The public authority module is used to write identification
information and / or article
ownership information and / or authentication information and / or
registration infoimation to the
electronic certificate.
[0028] The present invention discloses an article circulation system based
on an electronic
certificate, which has the following beneficial effects: By generating an
electronic certificate that
corresponds to an article and is adapted to the circulation of the Internet,
the invention can get rid of
the restriction of a specific sales place, thereby changing the original
reliance on the business
reputation of the tripartite E-commerce platform or online store. The
transaction-oriented E-
commerce model can be autonomous and efficiently circulated on the Internet,
realize intelligent
and independent trading, and realize the intelligent transaction with
commodity as the center so that
an item can be attached to its own attributes, such as manufacturers, raw
materials and other
information.

Detailed Description
[0034] For a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives
and effects of the present
invention, the specific examples of the present invention will be described in
detail with reference
to the accompanying drawings.
[0035] The present invention provides an article-based circulation system
100 based on an
electronic certificate. The application of the electronic certificate enables
the purchase of
commodity or services to be 'direct purchase and sale', that is, shipping
directly from the
manufacturer, automatically collecting money. The source guarantees the sale
of a genuine
commodity, so that the transaction is more secure and reliable, using the
electronic certificate to
guide the movement of physical objects to provide an evidentiary basis to
ensure that the purchase
of the legitimate rights and interests of both parties can be achieved in E-
commerce. Electronic
certificates can also be applied to items not yet produced or items that are
in the process of
manufacturing or pre-release. Electronic certificates can improve the rate of
return of funds, while
avoiding the need to rely on the business reputation of third-party business
platforms or online
stores. The transaction-oriented supplier is the center of the transaction
mode, so that items on the
Internet receive autonomous, efficient circulation, to achieve intelligent
transactions. The formation
of the object-centric transaction mode through the system of enterprises can
be expected to produce
items or items already manufactured or existing services and is used to
dynamically record the
circulation of items. The form of electronic certificate is displayed in E-
commerce to enable the
enterprise to obtain an instant cash flow income with a future cash flow
income. This greatly
improves the liquidity problem of capital turnover, meets the financing
requirements of enterprises
and accelerates the development of enterprises cash flow, while promoting
social and economic
development.
[0036] Figure 1 is a block diagram of an article circulation system 100
based on an electronic
certificate according to a first example of the present invention. As shown in
Figure 1, an article
circulation system 100 based on an electronic certificate includes a vendor
system 1, a client
4
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-02
terminal 2 communicatively connected to the vendor system 1, and a logistics
terminal 3
communicatively connected to the vendor system 1. Communication connection has
the function of
synchronous data or according to the actual needs, selective synchronization
of data.
[0037] The vendor system 1 is used to import an article attribute including
at least name and
amount of money to generate an electronic certificate and to store an
electronic certificate of
writeable information. In practice, an electronic signature is written into
the electronic certificate
system by the vendor, and then the electronic certificate is published through
the Internet so that the
client terminal can correctly identify the electronic certificate, to ensure
the authenticity of the
electronic certificate.
[0038] The formation of an electronic certificate here refers to the
distribution of items ready
for sale to an Internet identity that circulates within the Internet.
Preferably, it is displayed in the
form of an electronic certificate, and includes at least the basic attributes
of the item, such as the
raw materials of the item, the expiration date, and so on. Of course, the
items referred to here can be
specific commodities that are still being manufactured or are being
manufactured or have already
been manufactured, or specific services such as physiotherapy and counselling
and so on.
[0039] It should also be understood that the entity that applies to
generate the electronic
certificate may be a manufacturer, a seller or a natural person. That is to
say, the reference to
manufacturer system 1 does not necessarily limit application of the disclosure
to a specific
manufacturer or service provider.
[0040] The client terminal 2 obtains the electronic certificate via the
Internet, and after
determining the purchase intention, directly writes the logistics distribution
destination into the
electronic certificate, and at the same time, may select preset logistics
support information to
determine the logistics distribution information, such as selected specific
logistic sites and
distribution methods, such as the 'designated logistics company', 'logistics'
and so on and can
deliver payment commitments according to the amount of commodity corresponding
to the vendor
system.
[0041] The 'commitment to pay' is understood as a temporary freezing of the
credit limit (credit
card) or the deposit amount (debit card) in the purchaser's account as a
deposit after the purchaser
and the article provider have reached the trading intent. Upon completion of
the delivery of the
item, the item provider will accept the payment.
[0042] Of course, the depaitment's 'commitment to pay' is not necessarily
an individual's
account. It may be a relative's, friend's or other account. For example, when
a minor purchasers a
commodity online, he uses his guardian's account to pay, so that the guardian
can supervise the
underage.
[0043] Understandably, the above-mentioned 'account' does not necessarily
refer to a banking
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-02
institution. The 'account' can also be a third-party company such as Alipay or
Fortune. The 'account'
can also be a specific customer account of a specific manufacturer whereby a
member account is
generated at the manufacturer's place by the member, set up by the member
system. The account
has certain deposit amounts or credit lines, which can be used for the
commodity transaction.
[0044] An alternative interpretation of 'commitment to pay' is that the
purchaser directly pays
the commodity provider by wire transfer, mailing, etc., and sets the delivery
date.
[0045] There is also an understanding of the 'commitment to payment' that
the purchaser
promises to pay upon receipt of a specific item or service, which is what is
commonly referred to as
'cash on delivery'. Understandably, the 'payment promise' here is also a
payment arrangement, the
specific form of which can be decided by the purchaser or the item provider.
[0046] After receiving the 'payment promise', the logistics terminal 3
extracts an item
corresponding to the attribute of the item and directs the item to move to the
destination, and
delivers the receipt information to the manufacturer system 1.
[0047] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for distributing a commodity
based on an electronic
certificate provided by the present invention. The method mainly includes the
following four steps:
[0048] Si: The vendor system 1 provides the configured electronic
certificate template, adds the
electronic signature to the electronic certificate template, and then issues
the electronic certificate
via the Internet. Specifically, 'issuance' here refers to writing the vendor's
electronic signature in
the electronic certificate.
[0049] S2: The client terminal 2 acquires the electronic certificate, and
delivers a payment
commitment to the manufacturer system 1, promises to pay an amount
corresponding to the
attribute of the article, and writes the amount to a specific delivery
destination. The manufacturer
system 1 receives notice after the payment commitment. The status information
is also
synchronized to the client terminal 2, and the logistics terminal 3 is
notified to prepare for the
address provided by the article owner, or the location of the article
described in the electronic
certificate, and extracts the address corresponding to the article attribute
items.
[0050] S3: The logistics terminal 3 guides the item to move to the
destination.
[0051] S4: After the manufacturer system 1 receives the receipt information
of the logistics
terminal 3, it will honour the promised payment amount.
[0052] Wherein, for step Si, the vendor system 1 is used to store an
electronic certificate of
writeable information, wherein the electronic certificate at least includes an
article attribute with a
name and an amount, and is further configured to issue the electronic
certificate after writing
optional logistics support information, as well as payment and receipt
information, and in essence,
is to build an electronic certificate record of all transactions.
[0053] A preferred flow of step Si is shown in Figure 3, which is a flow
chart of generating and
6
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-02
issuing the electronic certificate provided by the present invention. The flow
chart includes the
following steps:
[0054] S101: The vendor system 1 submits the request for generating the
electronic certificate.
[0055] Preferably, the seller of commodity can first finish the
configuration of the commodity
on the local electronic terminal, and then submit the request for generating
the electronic certificate
to the manufacturer system 1 again. In this way, the generated electronic
certificate source file can
be directly stored on the local electronic terminal without being stored in
the vendor system 1, and
only a connection signal to the vendor system 1 can be provided.
[0056] It is also possible to connect directly to the vendor system 1,
configure the items online,
and then submit a request to generate an electronic certificate. In addition,
when the electronic
certificate is generated online, the electronic certificate can be saved
directly to the content
providing server. The electronic certificate may also be generated offline,
and may be stored offline
in a local electronic terminal.
[0057] S102: The manufacturer system 1 returns the item seller to the
configuration page
according to the request.
[0058] S103: The item seller sets various label information of the
electronic certificate in the
configuration page, that is, sets the transaction information of the
electronic certificate, which
includes at least the item attributes with the name and the amount.
[0059] S104: The manufacturer system 1 generates an electronic certificate
of configured item
information.
[0060] S105: The manufacturer system 1 receives the issuance request of the
item seller, issues
an electronic certificate after writing the optional logistics support
information, and delivers the
electronic certificate to the manufacturer system 1.
[0061] S106: Before the item seller applies for issuance, the manufacturer
system 1 returns a
PID to the item seller after confirming the identity of the item seller.
[0062] The 'PID' involved here is the port ID, which is also the 'port
number'. Normally, the
PID consists of 8-bit port priority plus port number, the port number is low,
and the default port
number priority 128.
[0063] S107: The manufacturer system 1 updates the state of the electronic
certificate to be
issued and synchronizes the information to the seller of the item.
[0064] S108: The seller of the item chooses the method to publish the
electronic certificate.
Generally, the electronic certificate is issued through a preset channel. The
channel can be a link, it
can be an advertisement, it can be embedded in the APP, and so on. This step
may also be
implemented by adding the publication port electrically connected to the
seller of commodity, and
the publication port is used to connect to the Internet to publish the
electronic certificate.
7
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-02
[0065] S109: the manufacturer system 1 issues the electronic certificate
according to the
distribution channel.
[0066] S110: The issued electronic certificate can be viewed by the seller
of commodity or
other Internet users through a terminal connected to the Internet.
[0067] With respect to step S2, the client terminal 2 in the system is used
to browse and acquire
the electronic certificate via the Internet, write a destination of the
logistics distribution in the
electronic certificate, and select the logistics support information to
determine the logistics and
distribution information according to the amount of the payment commitment of
the commodity.
Client terminal 2 can plug-in APP and other software to achieve its functions.
After receiving the
payment commitment from the client terminal 2, the vendor system 1 notifies
the logistics terminal
3 to go to the location of the article and extract the article corresponding
to the article attribute.
[0068] The function of the client terminal 2 is to issue a payment promise
or to complete the
payment. For a specific process of purchasing an electronic certificate, see
Figure 4. Figure 4, the
preferred flow of S2, is a flowchart of purchasing an electronic certificate
by the client terminal 2
according to the present invention:
[0069] S201: The client terminal 2 selects a payment account, and may also
select a platform
account for the Internet to support the flow of funds, or may also be a client
account with the
manufacturer system 1, so as to issue a payment commitment. In general, a
client chooses to login
to a bank account as a payment account using an existing bank account number
and password.
[0070] S202: The manufacturer system 1 verifies the user identity of the
client terminal 2, and
returns to the client terminal 2.
[0071] S203: The client terminal 2 submits the user identity information.
[0072] S204: The client terminal 2 confirms that the electronic certificate
is made, and the
manufacturer system 1 notifies the logistics terminal 3 to extract the article
corresponding to the
article attribute according to the received payment commitment. Whether the
item provider or the
buyer pays the logistics cost can be agreed upon.
[0073] S205: The manufacturer system 1 notifies the logistics terminal 3 to
deliver the
commodity.
[0074] S206: The manufacturer system 1 synchronizes the fulfilment
information of the
logistics terminal 3 to the client terminal 2.
[0075] S207: The client terminal 2 updates the fulfilment status of the
electronic certificate.
[0076] With respect to step S3, the system includes a logistics terminal 3
for directing the
movement of the item to a destination and delivering the receipt information
to the vendor system 1.
The logistics terminal 3 is housed inside the logistics company so that the
electronic certificate can
be fully circulated. The logistics terminal 3 can also be implemented in the
form of software such as
8
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-02
APP or plug-in. However, if the article is directed to move to the
destination, the article may be
delivered to the door or be delivered in other forms.
[0077] The logistics terminal 3 ensures the timely delivery of the
commodity under the
monitoring mode and effectively combines the circulation track of the
commodity and the
circulation of funds so that the rights and interests of both the buyer and
the seller can be effectively
protected.
[0078] The logistics terminal 3 essentially completes the delivery process.
A preferred flow of
S3 is shown in Figure 5, the flowchart of the delivery of the item provided by
the present invention
which preferably includes the following steps:
[0079] S301: Deliver the commodity and submit the compliance information,
and
simultaneously update the compliance information of the manufacturer system 1.
[0080] S302: The manufacturer system 1 receives the updated performance
information and
returns an acknowledgement of the executed contract at the same time. The
logistics company
automatically synchronizes the logistics status with the manufacturer system
1, for example, 'has
been received', 'has been shipped'.
[0081] S303: The electronic certificate updates the fulfilment information
in the logistics
terminal 3.
[0082] In order to better realize an intelligent electronic certificate,
the present invention also
provides for the following preferred solutions:
1) The vendor system 1 further includes a countdown module.
[0083] The countdown module is used to set countdown information for the
electronic
certificate, where the countdown information includes a payment countdown and
/ or a shipment
countdown and / or a countdown due to a transaction agreement. The countdown
module ensures
that items are delivered on time.
[0084] The countdown that determines when the client terminal 2 will pay
starts when both
parties of the transaction reach the intent of the transaction using the
client terminal 2. This is the
payment countdown.
[0085] A shipment countdown, based on a shipment contract, is used to
guarantee the timely
delivery of the item or service; the shipment countdown is started when the
payment is initiated.
[0086] The countdown to the arrival is the countdown to the receipt of the
item and is used to
guarantee the timely arrival of the item or service when the seller begins to
ship.
[0087] 2) The vendor system 1 further includes an insurance module and a
public authority
module.
[0088] The insurance module is used to set the electronic insurance
contract information for the
electronic certificate. The insurance module ensures the rights and interests
of both parties of the
9
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-02
transaction and minimizes the losses caused by the sudden conditions affecting
the transaction. The
insurance module records electronic insurance contracts, not limited to
specific types of insurance.
The insurance module provides a guarantee for the delivery of commodity, and
pays for the loss
caused by the failure of the commodity transaction, and the maximum guarantee
of the interests of
both parties.
[0089] The public authority module is used to write identification
information and / or article
ownership information and / or authentication information and / or
registration infolination to the
electronic certificate. The public authority module is complete with public
authority information
connection, with registration, accreditation, certification functions.
[0090] 3) The vendor system 1 further includes a rebate module.
[0091] The rebate module is used to provide the conditions under which an
intermediary or
agent issues a connection to an object credit certificate, from which the
transaction can be matched
so that the broker or agent can extract the commission.
[0092] The examples of the present invention are described above with
reference to the
accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the
above
specific examples. The foregoing specific examples are merely illustrative and
not intended
to limit the present invention. Many modifications and variations can be made
by those
skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the
invention as disclosed in
the accompanying drawings, all of which fall within the protection scope of
the invention.
