[0026]
Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. here,
(1) Processing performed by control device 10 when vehicle 11 attempts to enter parking lot P
(2) Processing performed by control device 10 when vehicle 11 attempts to enter parking lot P
Will be described respectively.
[0027]
(1) Processing performed by control device 10 when vehicle 11 attempts to enter parking lot P
First, a process performed by the control device 10 when the vehicle 11 attempts to enter the parking lot P will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG.
[0028]
The control device 10 waits for input of vehicle verification data, vehicle data, and occupant data from the entrance gate communication device 2 (step S1), and receives an issuance completion notification from the parking ticket issuing machine 3. Is waiting (step S2).
[0029]
Now, consider a case where the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 attempts to enter the parking lot P. As described above, when the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 enters the communication area, the entrance gate side communication device 2 transmits the vehicle recorded on the IC chip 13 from the IC chip 13. The verification data, the vehicle data, and the occupant data are received by radio signals and output to the control device 10.
[0030]
When vehicle verification data, vehicle data, and occupant data are input from entrance gate side communication device 2 ("YES" in step S1), control device 10 has vehicle 11 to enter parking lot P. The entrance gate is opened by recognizing that the vehicle 11 is present and outputting an entrance gate opening command to the entrance gate opening / closing device 4, thereby permitting the vehicle 11 to enter the parking lot P (step S3). That is, in this case, the occupant enters the parking lot P without taking a parking ticket.
[0031]
Next, the control device 10 recognizes the time at which the vehicle verification data, the vehicle data, and the occupant data are input from the entrance gate communication device 2 as the entrance time, and as shown in FIG. Among the vehicle verification data input from the device 2, the information is associated with the “registration number” of the “marker plate related information”, and these are recorded as entry management data using an electronic license plate (step S4).
[0032]
Next, the control device 10 determines whether valid information is stored in the vehicle data or the occupant data input from the entrance gate communication device 2 (Step S5). Here, when valid information is stored in the vehicle data or the occupant data ("YES" in step S5), the control device 10 extracts the stored valid information and manages the entrance using an electronic license plate. It is recorded as data (step S6).
[0033]
More specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, when the vehicle 11 having the registration number “Mikawa 40 Mi OO-OO” enters the parking lot P, for example, as shown in FIG. If effective information such as "a standard emission level of 25% reduction in fiscal 2000" is stored, this fact is recorded in the column of "low emission vehicles" in the entry management data using an electronic license plate. Further, when the vehicle 11 having the registration number “Gifu33kuOO-OO” enters the parking lot P, for example, the control device 10 stores valid information of “disabled class 3” in the occupant data. If so, the fact is recorded in the column of “disabled person” in the entry management data using the electronic license plate. Further, for example, when the vehicle 11 having the registration number “Mikawa 300 or OO-OO” enters the parking lot P, the control device 10 adds the “75% reduction level of the 2000 standard exhaust gas” to the vehicle data and If effective information such as “Person with disability class 1” is stored in the occupant data, this fact is recorded in the column of “low emission vehicles” and the column of “disabled person” in the entrance management data using the electronic license plate.
[0034]
Next, on the other hand, consider a case where the vehicle 11 on which the IC chip 13 is not mounted on the license plate 12 attempts to enter the parking lot P. When the parking ticket issuing machine 3 issues the parking ticket as described above, the parking ticket issuing machine 3 outputs an issuance completion notification to the control device 10.
[0035]
When the issuance completion notification is input from parking ticket issuing machine 3 ("YES" in step S2), control device 10 recognizes that vehicle 11 to enter parking lot P exists, and enters the entrance. By outputting the gate opening command to the entrance gate opening / closing device 4, the entrance gate is opened and the vehicle 11 is permitted to enter the parking lot P (step S7). That is, in this case, the occupant enters the parking lot P after obtaining the parking ticket.
[0036]
Next, the control device 10 recognizes the time at which the issuance completion notice is input from the parking ticket issuing machine 3 as the entrance time, and as shown in FIG. 7, the entrance time and the parking ticket issued by the parking ticket issuing machine 3 It associates the assigned parking ticket numbers with each other and records them as entrance management data for parking tickets (step S8).
[0037]
As described above, when the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 attempts to enter the parking lot P, if valid information is stored in the vehicle data or the occupant data, the control device 10 Will record such valid information as entrance management data using an electronic license plate. The control device 10 repeats the above-described processing while the parking lot P is open.
[0038]
(2) Process Performed by Control Device 10 When Vehicle 11 Attempts to Enter from Parking Lot P Next, the process performed by the control device 10 when the vehicle 11 attempts to enter the parking lot P is shown in FIG. This will be described with reference to a flowchart.
[0039]
The control device 10 waits for input of vehicle verification data, vehicle data, and occupant data from the entrance gate communication device 5 (step S11), and receives a collection completion notification from the parking ticket collection device 6. Is waiting (step S12).
[0040]
Now, consider a case where the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 attempts to enter the parking lot P. As described above, when the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 enters the communication area, the entry gate side communication device 5 transmits the vehicle recorded on the IC chip 13 from the IC chip 13. The verification data, the vehicle data, and the occupant data are received by radio signals and output to the control device 10.
[0041]
When the vehicle verification data, the vehicle data, and the occupant data are input from entry gate side communication device 5 (“YES” in step S11), control device 10 has vehicle 11 to enter from parking lot P. Recognizing that the vehicle is present, it searches the entry management data using the previously recorded electronic license plate (step S13), and extracts the entry time of the vehicle whose "registration number" matches (step S14).
[0042]
Next, the control device 10 recognizes the time at which the vehicle verification data, the vehicle data, and the occupant data are input from the entrance gate side communication device 5 as the entry time, and determines the recognized entry time and the entry time previously recorded. Then, the parking time is calculated by calculating the difference (step S15). Next, the control device 10 calculates a parking fee based on the calculated parking time (Step S16). In this case, for example, when the parking fee is calculated based on the fee per unit time, the control device 10 calculates the parking fee by multiplying the parking time by the fee per unit time.
[0043]
Next, the control device 10 determines whether or not valid information is recorded in the column of "low emission vehicle" or the column of "disabled person" in the entrance management data using the electronic license plate (step S17). Here, when valid information is recorded in the column of “low emission vehicle” or the column of “disabled person” (“YES” in step S17), the control unit 10 calculates the parking fee calculated in advance. Is reduced based on the contents of the valid information (step S18), and the occupant determines the parking fee to be settled (step S19). In this case, the process of reducing the cost may be a process of discounting at a predetermined discount rate according to the degree of reduction of the exhaust gas or the degree of the obstacle, or may be the processing of reducing the amount of the exhaust gas or the degree of the obstacle. It may be a process of discounting a predetermined discount amount.
[0044]
More specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, when the vehicle 11 having the registration number of “Mikawa 40 Mi OO-OO” attempts to enter the parking lot P, as shown in FIG. Since effective information such as "a standard emission reduction rate of 25% in 2000" is recorded in the column of "car", a process of reducing the parking fee is performed based on the information. In addition, for example, when the vehicle 11 with the registration number of “Gifu33kuOO-OO” attempts to enter from the parking lot P, the control device 10 displays “Effective Person 3” in the column of “Disabled Person”. Since such information is recorded, a process of reducing the parking fee is performed based on the fact. Further, for example, when the vehicle 11 with the registration number of “Mikawa 300 or OO-OO” attempts to enter the parking lot P, the control device 10 displays “2000 emission standard” in the column of “low emission vehicles”. Since the effective information of “Disabled Class 1” is recorded in the columns of “Gas 75% reduction level” and “Disabled person”, the processing for reducing the parking fee is performed based on that information.
[0045]
Next, the control device 10 outputs a display command to the display device 7 to display the reduced parking fee on the display device 7 together with a display message indicating that the parking fee has been reduced (step). S20).
[0046]
More specifically, when the vehicle 11 with the registration number of “Mikawa 40 Mi OO-OO” tries to enter the parking lot P, for example, as shown in FIG. The parking fee is displayed on the display unit 7 together with a display message "Car discount 10% has been applied." When the vehicle 11 with the registration number of “Gifu33kuOO-OO” attempts to enter from the parking lot P, for example, as shown in FIG. The parking fee is displayed on the display device 7 together with the display message "Did."
[0047]
Then, the control device 10 performs a payment process (step S21). When the payment completion notification is input from the payment device 8 and the occupant recognizes that the parking fee has been correctly settled, the control device 10 issues an entry gate opening command to the entry gate opening / closing device. 9, the entry gate is opened, and the vehicle 11 is permitted to enter from the parking lot P (step S22).
[0048]
Next, a case is considered in which the vehicle 11 to which the IC chip 13 is not mounted on the license plate 12 tries to enter the parking lot P. When collecting the parking ticket, the parking ticket collection machine 6 outputs a collection completion notification to the control device 10 as described above.
[0049]
When the collection completion notification is input from parking ticket collection device 6 (“YES” in step S12), control device 10 recognizes that vehicle 11 to enter parking lot P exists, and (Step S23), and the entry time of the vehicle whose parking ticket number matches is extracted (step S24).
[0050]
Next, the control device 10 recognizes the time at which the collection completion notice is input from the parking ticket collection machine 6 as the entry time, and calculates the difference between the entry time and the previously recorded entry time, thereby obtaining the parking time. Is calculated (step S25). Next, the control device 10 calculates a parking fee based on the calculated parking time (Step S26). Also in this case, if the parking fee is calculated based on the fee per unit time, for example, the control device 10 calculates the parking fee by multiplying the parking time by the fee per unit time.
[0051]
Next, the control device 10 displays the calculated parking fee on the display device 7 by outputting a display command to the display device 7 (step S27). Then, the control device 10 performs a payment process (step S28), and when a payment completion notification is input from the payment device 8 and recognizes that the occupant has correctly settled the parking fee, the control device 10 issues an entry gate opening command to the entry gate opening / closing device. 9, the entry gate is opened to permit the vehicle 11 to enter from the parking lot P (step S29).
[0052]
As described above, when the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 attempts to enter from the parking lot P, the entry management data based on the electronic license plate indicates the “low-emission vehicle” column or the “obstruction”. If valid information is recorded in the column of "person", the control device 10 performs a process of reducing the calculated parking fee based on the content of the valid information, and determines the parking fee to be settled by the occupant. Will be. The control device 10 repeats the above-described processing while the parking lot P is open.
[0053]
By the way, when the vehicle 11 having the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 attempts to enter from the parking lot P, the entry gate side communication device 5 uses the vehicle verification data recorded on the IC chip 13. Although the description has been given of the case where the vehicle data and the occupant data are received by radio signals and output to the control device 10, the entry gate side communication device 5 does not necessarily need to receive the vehicle data and the occupant data by radio signals. That is, any configuration may be used as long as the entry gate side communication device 5 receives at least the vehicle verification data by a radio signal.
[0054]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the parking fee collection system 1, when the vehicle 11 in which the IC chip 13 is mounted on the license plate 12 is parked in the parking lot P, When vehicle data and occupant data are received as radio signals from the IC chip 13 and it is recognized that the vehicle 11 is a low-emission vehicle and that the occupant in the vehicle 11 is a disabled person, the parking fee is reduced. It was configured to reduce the amount.
[0055]
Therefore, for the user who uses the parking lot P, the vehicle verification that the vehicle 11 is a low-emission vehicle or the disability certificate that the passenger or the passenger is a disabled person is described. Is not required to be presented to the attendant, so that even if the attendant is not located in the parking lot P, the procedure for reducing the parking fee can be properly received, thereby providing convenience when using the parking lot P. Can be increased. In addition, for the manager who manages the parking lot P, it is not necessary to arrange a clerk only to perform a procedure for reducing the parking fee, so that efficient management can be performed.
[0056]
Further, in this case, when the control device 10 determines to reduce the parking fee, the display device 7 displays a display message indicating that the parking fee has been reduced. By doing so, it can be confirmed that the parking fee has been reduced, and it can be confirmed that the procedure for reducing the parking fee has been properly received.
[0057]
Further, in this case, the IC chip 13 mounted on the license plate 12 of the vehicle 11 has vehicle data indicating that the vehicle 11 is a low-emission vehicle, and the occupant in the vehicle 11 is a disabled person. Is recorded so that the vehicle data and the occupant data are recorded in the vacant recording area of the IC chip 13 for recording the vehicle verification data. 13 can be used effectively.
