Description
COMPREHENSIVE CHECK-IN SYSTEM
Object of the Invention
As indicated by the title of the invention the object of the present invention is a comprehensive check-in system which allows the passengers to perform the check-in or registration process for obtaining the boarding pass, as well as, luggage check-in in an independent manner, in a station automated and integrated with the rest of the airport systems such that the involvement of staff is not necessary.
The present invention is defined by the special configuration and design of the physical elements forming part of the comprehensive check-in system, as well as the architecture and connectivity between different systems cooperating with both the check-in process and with the rest of the airport management system, achieving a check-in system in which the registration and check-in process is performed in a fast, safe and independent manner, without needing the involvement of any airport staff.
Therefore, the present invention is a fundamental innovation with respect to the already available automatic check-in systems since it allows using the existing airport systems, regardless of their brand and model, providing them with comprehensive and automatic check-in functionality with the incorporation of new hardware and software elements.
This innovation falls within the scope of installations and airport control and management systems, and particularly among means used for registering passengers, i.e., for check-in and luggage check-in.
Background of the Invention
The luggage check-in process must be performed at the counter assigned to the airline for that purpose, where the boarding pass and the luggage stub, which is the slip of the identifications assigned to each of the checked-in baggage will be issued.
For check-in one must show up at the check-in counters in good time previously indicated in writing (including by electronic means) by the air carrier, the tour operator or an authorized travel agent, and if there is no indication, at least 45 minutes prior to the announced time of departure of the flight. Some airlines can establish other limits, therefore it is important to be sufficiently informed in advance.
Among the most frequent passenger complaints relating to check-in and luggage check-in process are the following:
- long waiting times
- limited check-in or luggage drop-off stations
On the other hand, airlines consider that the costs associated with check-in
processes are very high, among other reasons it is due to the fact that check-in is a process assisted by the company staff.
Therefore the object of the present invention is to develop a system which reduces the long check-in process waiting times and which additionally reduces the costs associated with these processes, developing in this regard a comprehensive check-in process such as that described below which essentiality is listed in the first claim.
Description of the Invention
The invention of a comprehensive check-in system seeks to achieve a multifunctional and unassisted check-in system. Generally, when luggage which cannot be carried into the plane cabin has to be checked-in, the boarding pass is obtained together with the check-in process, if the boarding pass has not been obtained earlier.
Therefore the object of the invention is to develop a check-in system in which the following can be performed:
1. only print the boarding pass
2. only luggage drop-off (in the case of having a boarding pass obtained by other means -internet...-)
3. obtaining a boarding pass in addition to luggage drop-off
All the three mentioned cases would be automatically performed in an unassisted manner.
To achieve said purposes the present invention shows the development of check-in modules involving a modular solution able to be integrated with the existing installations, allowing the adaptation of existing airport equipment and systems.
The comprehensive check-in system comprises:
- at least one check-in module having a visual display associated with a first controller for issuing boarding passes, check-in and luggage drop-off, responsible for receiving, weighing, identifying and placing luggage into the luggage treatment system. It will be connected with a series of peripheral devices responsible for the tasks of receiving, identifying and transporting the luggage.
- a second logic controller, PLC responsible for the functions of controlling the belt conveyors or conveyor belts responsible for moving the luggage.
- at least 2 belt conveyors equipped with weighing scale for moving the luggage.
Means necessary for a perfect execution and control of all the delivery process are installed inside each check-in module. Therefore, the baggage drop-off panel has an opening and closing blind for accessing the baggage conveyor belt. The execution
panel of the check-in operation will have a monitor with touch screen for controlling and executing the check-in processes, in addition to one or several printers for printing the boarding pass, if necessary, and the baggage identifying tags. It will also have credit card reading means and optical character recognition means for the purpose of reading bar codes passports or identity cards.
The system object of the invention has an extensive functionality.
- individual or group check-in
- luggage drop-off for the passenger with a boarding pass
- passenger identification by National Identification Document, passport, pager, frequent flyer card or boarding pass.
- number of bags and excess weight configurable by the airline
- able to be integrated with the company departure control system (DCS).
- integration with other systems
The advantages of the comprehensive check-in system object of the invention are:
- staff reduction since the direct and personalized attention from the staff of the company itself is not necessary to perform the check-in processes.
- therefore reducing operation processes
- highly available system
- reducing check-in process waiting times
- possibility of performing check-in in several languages
- increasing reliability by means of the complete automation of all processes, nullifying all possible human error in check-in process since it is performed in an automated manner.
- design and finishing adaptable to the airport architecture.
- possibility of total and automatic integration in luggage treatment system. There is an aspect related to security which acquires special relevance since the system has access controlling means preventing the intrusion of unauthorized luggage, a full control of the generated alarms, since it is integrated with the airport monitoring system, enabling response in the face of mechanical, electrical, communication and printing anomalies. Finally a complete luggage safety is also achieved, since it is unequivocally identified with RFID technology.

Figure 7 shows a depiction of how the comprehensive check-in system can be integrated with the other means and systems that control the entire check-in process. Preferred Embodiment of the Invention
In view of the drawings a preferred embodiment of the proposed invention is described below.
The perspective depiction of a possible check-in module (1) can be observed in Figure 1 which would have, as minimum necessary elements, at least a baggage dropoff panel (2) and a panel which could be called a check-in execution panel (3).
The baggage drop-off panel (2) has a window (2.1) for introducing the luggage into and accessing the luggage distribution system, it is covered on its upper part by means of a roof (as can be observed in Figure 2) and has an automated blind (2.3) allowing or preventing the access to the luggage distribution means.
It can be observed in Figure 3 that the execution panel (3) of the check-in process further has the opening (3.1) for arranging a monitor or touch screen (3.2) with at least one printer (3.3), and optionally with a keyboard (3.4) on its front part if the display is not touch screen.
Some constructive features such as the fact that it has a slit (3.6) for providing the boarding passes, it also has a slit (3.5) for supplying the baggage tags, and finally a slit (3.7) associated with a credit or debit card reader can be observed with more detail in Figure 4.
Some constructive features such as the fact that it has a slit (3.6) for providing the boarding passes, it also has a slit (3.5) for supplying the baggage tags, and finally a slit (3.7) associated with a credit or debit card reader can be observed with more detail
in Figure 4.
In Figure 4, it is shown how the blind (2.3) is lowered preventing luggage dropoff.
To enable carrying out all the check-in control process each check-in module (1) must be associated with a controller (4), or control equipment, such as shown in Figure 5.
Said controller (4) of the check-in process is responsible for controlling the operation of the peripheral devices, managing the information exchange between same. Therefore, said controller would be connected to a monitor (3.2) or a display with one or several printers (3.3) which would be responsible for printing the possible boarding pass and supplying it through the slit (3.6), and the luggage identifying tags which would be supplied through the same or a different slit (3.5). It would also control a credit card reader, accessible through a slit (3.7).
Said controller (4) responsible for controlling the check-in process would control a communications management (4.1), as well as the library or database (4.2) of the identifications assigned to the luggage.
Finally, said first controller (4) of the check-in process would be connected to a second controller (5) responsible for controlling belt conveyors or conveyor belts responsible for moving the luggage, which uses a RFID identification reader, assuring that it is not possible for the passenger to introduce an erroneous tag or luggage without identification.
It can be seen that said second controller (5) which is shown in detail in Figure 5 is responsible for:
- opening and closing the blind (2.3) for accessing the baggage drop-off and distribution system,
- the operation of detection or security barriers (5.1) installed next to the blinds
(2.3),
- the operation of a conveyor belt (5.2) carrying the baggage from the check-in point to a main grouping and storage belt,
- the control of a second blind (5.3) giving access to the grouping and storage,
- the operation of the luggage grouping and storage belts, which would allow transferring the luggage to a main distribution line, placed transversally with respect to the above,
- means for controlling and the unequivocal identification of each of the baggage by means of a RFID control system (5.5).
How the comprehensive check-in system object of the invention would be
integrated within all the architecture of the airport information systems can be observed in Figure 7.
How the departure control (12) is connected to the following can be observed:
- the server of the terminal (8), which is in turn connected to the check-in modules (6) and to the boarding gates (9),
- the peripheral devices (7) associated with each of the check-in modules (6),
- the servers of the airlines (11),
- the server of the internet check-in processes (12),
- the peripheral devices (10) associated with each of the boarding gates (9). A system which allows performing luggage check-in in a simple, safe, fast, unassisted manner, i.e., without the involvement of any staff is achieved as a result of the characteristics of the elements involved, the interactive and joint arrangement thereof.
That the check-in modules forming part of the check-in system are modular modules is further achieved, i.e., formed by parts or elements completely coupleable to the already made installations, therefore structural change in the already made installations is unnecessary.
On the other hand, each of the check-in stations do not have to be assigned to a specific company being able to be used by several companies, therefore improving the exploitation thereof, since they can be used for 24 hours.
The check-in system allows performing the entire operations which are performed during the registration or check-in process in the same system:
- authenticating the passenger,
- seat selection
- printing the boarding passes and luggage tags
- weight detection including payment for excess luggage, depending on the companies.
- identifying and recognizing each and every luggage introduced in the system
- interaction with the luggage management system.
- luggage drop-off
- possibility of customized solution
This description is not made more extensive with the good understanding that any person skilled in the art would have sufficient information to understand the scope of the invention and the advantages derived thereof, as well as to reproduce same.
The invention, within its essentiality, can be carried out into practice in other embodiments differing in detail from those in the description which will also achieve
the protection claimed. Likewise, it could be constructed in any shape and size with the most suitable materials as it is all comprised in the nature of the claims.
The terms in which this specification has been described must always be interpreted in a broad and non-limiting sense.
