Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zur Registrierung der Benutzer eines Kraftfahrzeugs.The invention relates to a device for registering the users of a motor vehicle.

Zur Erfassung von Kosten bei Kraftfahrzeugen, die innerhalb eines Betriebes von mehreren Personen benutzt werden, oder auch aus rechtlichen Gründen ist häufig die Führung eines Fahrtenbuches erforderlich. Dabei werden jedoch Eintragungen oft vergessen, die insbesondere bei einer großen Benutzerzahl später schwer nachvollziehbar sind.In order to record costs for motor vehicles that are used by several people within a company, or for legal reasons, it is often necessary to keep a logbook. However, entries are often forgotten, which are difficult to understand later, especially with a large number of users.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Einrichtung zur Registrierung der Benutzer eines Kraftfahrzeugs anzugeben, bei welcher der jeweilige Benutzer nicht vor und nach der Fahrt irgendwelche Eintragungen bzw. Aufzeichnungen vornehmen muß.The object of the present invention is to provide a device for registering the users of a motor vehicle, in which the respective user does not have to make any entries or records before and after the journey.

Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß Fahrzeugschlüssel mit Codegebern versehen sind, wobei in den Codegebern gespeicherte Codes für verschiedene vorgesehene Benutzer verschieden sind, daß im Kraftfahrzeug mindestens eine Empfangseinrichtung für den Code und eine Speichereinrichtung vorgesehen sind und daß ein von der Empfangseinrichtung empfangener Code zusammen mit anderen Informationen, vorzugsweise Datum und Uhrzeit, in der Speichereinrichtung speicherbar ist.The device according to the invention is characterized in that vehicle keys are provided with code transmitters, codes stored in the code transmitters being different for different intended users, in the motor vehicle at least one receiving device for the code and one storage device being provided, and in that a code received by the receiving device together with other information, preferably the date and time, can be stored in the storage device.

Die Codegeber können in an sich bekannter Weise im Griffstück des Fahrzeugschlüssels oder in einem separaten Gehäuse angeordnet sein, das beispielsweise als Schlüsselanhänger ausgebildet ist. Die Übertragung des Codes erfolgt vorzugsweise mit Infrarotstrahlen.The code transmitters can be arranged in a manner known per se in the handle of the vehicle key or in a separate housing which is designed, for example, as a key fob. The code is preferably transmitted using infrared rays.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung erfolgt eine Registrierung der Benutzer, also die Führung eines Fahrtenbuches, ohne daß es spezieller Aufmerksamkeit des jeweiligen Benutzers bedarf. Damit ist die vollständige Erfassung der Fahrzeugbenutzungen gewährleistet. Außerdem weist die Erfindung den Vorteil auf, daß bei den Benutzern durch den Wegfall der Eintragungen Zeit eingespart wird. Schließlich besteht ein weiterer Vorteil darin, daß das Fahrtenbuch in elektronischer Form vorliegt, so daß die speziell für Abrechnungszwecke erforderlichen Informationen nicht per Hand übertragen werden müssen.The device according to the invention registers the user, that is, keeps a logbook, without requiring special attention from the respective user. This ensures that vehicle usage is fully recorded. In addition, the invention has the advantage that users are saved time by eliminating the entries. Finally, a further advantage is that the logbook is in electronic form, so that the information specifically required for billing purposes does not have to be transferred by hand.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung besteht darin, daß die Empfangseinrichtung mit einer Verriegelungsanlage des Kraftfahrzeugs verbunden ist und daß ein vom Codegeber erzeugter und von der Empfangseinrichtung empfangener Code das Auf- bzw. Zuschließen des Kraftfahrzeugs steuert und daß mindestens derjenige Teil des Codes, der den jeweiligen Benutzer kennzeichnet, zusammen mit dem Datum und der Uhrzeit zum Zeitpunkt des Auf- bzw. Zuschließens des Kraftfahrzeugs gespeichert wird.An advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention is that the receiving device is connected to a locking system of the motor vehicle and that a code generated by the code transmitter and received by the receiving device controls the opening and closing of the motor vehicle and that at least that part of the code that the identifies each user, along with the date and time at Time of opening and closing the motor vehicle is stored.

Durch diese Ausführungsform wird in vorteilhafter Weise ausgenutzt, daß viele Fahrzeuge bereits mit Verriegelungsanlagen, insbesondere Zentralverriegelungsanlagen, versehen sind, so daß der für die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung erforderliche Mehraufwand äußerst gering ist. Außerdem sind viele Benutzer von Kraftfahrzeugen mit der Bedienung von derartigen Zentralverriegelungsanlagen vertraut.This embodiment takes advantage of the fact that many vehicles are already provided with locking systems, in particular central locking systems, so that the additional effort required for the device according to the invention is extremely low. In addition, many motor vehicle users are familiar with the operation of such central locking systems.

Eine andere vorteilhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung besteht darin, daß eine Empfangseinrichtung im Bereich des Zündschlosses derart angeordnet ist, daß bei der Inbetriebnahme des Kraftfahrzeugs der Code empfangen und zusammen mit dem Datum und der Uhrzeit bei der Inbetriebnahme gespeichert wird.Another advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention is that a receiving device is arranged in the area of the ignition lock in such a way that the code is received when the motor vehicle is started and is stored together with the date and time when it is started.

Diese Ausführungsform kann sowohl für sich allein als auch im Zusammenhang mit einer Einbindung der Zentralverriegelungsanlage in die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung ausgeführt sein. Ein Vorteil dieser Ausführungsform besteht beispielsweise darin, daß eine Registrierung des Benutzers auch dann erfolgt, wenn zuvor kein Aufschließen des Fahrzeugs stattgefunden hat. Es ist bei dieser Ausführungsform dann allerdings sicherzustellen, daß beim Einstecken des Schlüssels in das Zündschloß bzw. bei der Drehung des Zündschlüssels die Übertragung eines Codes stattfindet.This embodiment can be carried out both on its own and in connection with the integration of the central locking system in the device according to the invention. An advantage of this embodiment is, for example, that the user is registered even if the vehicle has not previously been unlocked. In this embodiment, however, it must then be ensured that a code is transmitted when the key is inserted into the ignition lock or when the ignition key is turned.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung ist vorgesehen, daß der Speichereinrichtung ferner ein Signal zuführbar ist, das die jeweils vom Kraftfahrzeug zurückgelegte Strecke kennzeichnet. Hierdurch wird eine betriebliche Abrechnung der Kosten für die Fahrzeugbenutzung weiter erleichtert.According to a development of the device according to the invention, it is provided that the memory device can also be supplied with a signal which identifies the distance traveled by the motor vehicle. As a result, operational billing of the costs for vehicle use further relieved.

Zur Auswertung der gespeicherten Daten ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Speichereinrichtung einen entnehmbaren Datenträger, vorzugsweise eine Chip-Karte, umfaßt.To evaluate the stored data, it is advantageous if the storage device comprises a removable data carrier, preferably a chip card.

Der Datenträger kann dann regelmäßig, beispielsweise wöchentlich ausgetauscht werden. Zur Auswertung des entnommenen Datenträgers sind ein Personalcomputer mit einem geeigneten Programm, eine Leseeinrichtung für den Datenträger und ein Drucker erforderlich, mit dem aus den gespeicherten Informationen eine Liste der Fahrzeugbenutzungen erstellbar ist.The data carrier can then be replaced regularly, for example weekly. To evaluate the removed data carrier, a personal computer with a suitable program, a reading device for the data carrier and a printer are required, with which a list of vehicle uses can be generated from the stored information.
