The present invention relates to a parking confirmation system applied to a large parking facility located in a dense area in the city center such as a large shopping center, an airport, a department store, and more specifically, so that the parking location can be confirmed through voice with guidance about parking information. It relates to a parking confirmation system for providing a service.
In general, large parking lots installed in buildings located in crowded areas such as large shopping centers, airports, and department stores, where there are many cars, have a large number of parking spaces, but they have to move to many spaces in search of empty parking spaces. do. These spaces do not have a characteristic structure according to the parking position, but because the same shape is repeated, the driver tends to lose the sense of direction and thinks only about the purpose of his visit after parking and does not check the actual parking position. There is a lot. In addition, the parking lot is equipped with only minimal facilities, so there is a long way to ask for help from the manager in case of various crimes and other emergency in the parking lot.

Of course, there are CCTVs, but this is certainly a blind spot, and it is possible to confirm the occurrence of an accident afterwards, but it is not a system that the manager can immediately know in an emergency.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is to minimize waste of time to find a parked own vehicle, to secure and help the driver's safety in an emergency, and to improve the efficiency of parking lot management.

In the case of large parking lots, many efforts have been made for customers who cannot find their own parked cars. For example, printed on the wall column, "Please check the location of the vehicle after parking" or "Vehicle will be found. Please contact the phone number below." It is a common case that printed matters, such as these, are stuck. However, modern people live in the flood of advertisements, so they are not interested in these prints, and among many prints, such phrases are not easily noticeable.

Recently, a parking position printer or RF reader has been installed in various places in the parking lot to overcome this problem. However, all drivers must have their own parking ticket and contact the machine. It is a reality that is hardly used because there are many difficulties.

The same applies to the safety and service of the parking lot. In reality, it is difficult to have a large number of people in the parking lot due to labor cost burden. In addition, in the case of large hospitals and large marts, it is more difficult to have a representative in charge as the 24-hour operation is common. However, in the reality that the crime of parking lot is increasing day by day, it cannot be ignored.

Parking confirmation system according to the present invention can provide convenience and benefits to both the driver of the vehicle using the parking facility and the manager and manager of the parking facility. For the driver, the present invention can save time and parking fees for finding a parked vehicle and can be assisted through an emergency switch in case of an emergency or other situation that requires assistance from an administrator and the administrator to find a customer's vehicle. Labor costs and customers used can be protected from crime, and complaints can be minimized to increase customer service.
In order to achieve the above object, a parking confirmation system according to the present invention includes an ultrasonic sensor (1) installed on each of a plurality of parking surfaces to check whether a vehicle is parked on a predetermined parking surface in a parking lot;
A speaker built-in voice module 3 for outputting a predetermined voice recorded in advance; And
Receives and decodes information on the presence or absence of parking information from the ultrasonic sensor (1) and controls the controller (2) for outputting the information on the parking position to the driver of the vehicle through a built-in speaker_voice module (3) with a predetermined voice It includes, so as to recognize the parking position of the vehicle from the output voice.
In addition, the parking confirmation system according to the present invention
An emergency switch 8 installed at predetermined positions at regular intervals in the parking lot and transmitting a signal to the controller 2;
A buzzer 9 for generating a predetermined buzzer sound; And
Further comprising a higher controller (6) for controlling the transmission of data between the computer (7) and the controller (2) performing overall control management of the parking lot,
When the driver of the vehicle presses the emergency switch 8 and inputs it to the controller 2 and confirms the input, the buzzer 9 outputs a predetermined buzzer sound or a guide sound through the speaker built-in voice module 3. The controller 2 transmits the input to the computer 7 through the upper controller 6, and the computer 7 checks the code number (ID) indicating the position where the input is made and transmits the corresponding position to the monitor of the computer. A warning sound so that the administrator of the computer 7 can know it.
In addition, the present invention further comprises a door switch (5) for checking whether the door is opened or closed in each door installed in the parking lot, the controller 2 to determine whether the doors of the driver of the vehicle to decode this information By outputting the voice through the speaker built-in voice module (3) can inform the location information of the current location.
In addition, the parking confirmation system according to the present invention, the controller 2 receives the voice data from the computer 7 immediately or periodically, whether the parking of the vehicle, the door lock, or when the parking lot operator and manager wants the built-in speaker_ The voice data may be output through the voice module 3 to transmit various types of information to the user.

The present invention can also provide a high-quality service because the parking lot manager and manager can notify the driver in real time or periodically through the speaker at a minimum cost to inform the driver.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
1 shows the overall configuration of an embodiment of a parking positioning system according to the invention, which is a front view of a parking lot divided into several floors or sections used to implement the invention. 1 is an example of one parking lot to which the essential elements of the present invention may be applied in one of various parking lot forms. As shown in Figure 1, the parking lot is installed at a predetermined position to output a predetermined set of voices stored for the ultrasonic sensor 1 installed on each parking surface for determining whether the vehicle is parked, parking guidance and parking confirmation. For example, the controller for performing a control operation for the installation installed in the parking surface in accordance with the built-in speaker_voice module (3) installed on each pillar in the parking surface, the parking confirmation information from the ultrasonic sensor ( 2), an emergency switch 8 installed for the request for confirmation of the parking position, etc., and a buzzer 9 for generating a constant sound are installed.

The first embodiment is an embodiment in which the parking confirmation system according to the present invention operates separately from the management system for controlling the parking lot as a whole. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the ultrasonic sensor 1 installed on each parking surface determines whether the vehicle is parked when the vehicle to be parked enters the parking surface, and transmits the information to a column beam in the parking lot. The controller 2 is transferred to the installed controller 2. The controller 2, which receives the information, decodes whether the vehicle is parked and outputs a voice stored in advance as follows through the speaker built-in voice module 3 after a predetermined time.

(E.g. Please check your parking location!)
When the voice is output as described above, the driver of the vehicle may check his / her location by looking at the number of the parking surface displayed on the parking surface of the vehicle.

Unlike the first embodiment, the second embodiment illustrates a case in which the second embodiment operates in connection with the management system. The second embodiment shows the case in which the driver of the vehicle needs an emergency or the assistance of an administrator. As described above, when the driver presses the emergency switch 8 installed on the parking surface in the parking lot, the controller 2 detects this and outputs the guide sound through the buzzer sound or the speaker built-in voice module 3.

(E.g. Please wait a minute, security officer will arrive soon.)

The controller 2 again transmits a signal to the upper controller 6 which performs a connection role with the management system managing the parking lot, and the upper controller 6 transmits the signal to the computer 7 of the management system. The computer 7 checks the code number ID corresponding to the position of the emergency switch 8, displays the corresponding position on the monitor, and generates a warning sound for the administrator to know.

The third embodiment illustrates an example of a service that may be provided in connection with the first or second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the driver must pass through the door to enter the building from the parking lot after finishing parking. do. The door switch 5 checks whether the driver's door is closed and the controller 2 decodes the information to output a voice for guiding the position of the door with a preset voice through the speaker built-in voice module 3. do.

(Example: You! Your car parked at the basement 2nd floor parking lot.)

As a fourth embodiment, as shown in the configuration shown in FIG. 2 and the flowchart in FIG. 3, the computer 7 sends voice data to the driver to the upper controller 6 and the upper controller 6 again controls the controller. (2), the controller (2) receives parking presence information from the ultrasonic sensor (1), door lock information from the door switch (5), and receives the voice data received from the upper controller (6). It is output through (3).

(E.g. "Please check your parking location" when parking, but it can be output in a different form in consideration of the information on the parking surface in various ways. For example,

It is possible to change to "This parking side is for disabled people. Please do not park for the general public."

As a fifth embodiment, as shown in Fig. 2, the computer 7 can immediately transmit voice information to all the drivers and managers in the parking lot. The computer 7 sends the voice data to be sent immediately or periodically to the upper controller 6 and the upper controller 6 to the controller 2 again. The controller 2 immediately returns the vehicle regardless of whether the vehicle is parked or the door is opened or closed. The audio data is output through the speaker built-in voice module 2.

At this time, since all the speaker built-in voice module (2) in the parking lot operates at the same time, the transmission of information is sure.
(E.g., please let us know. The entire parking lot is a non-smoking area. Please use the designated area for smoking.)

Parking position confirmation system proposed in the present invention, the driver can save the time and parking costs to find a parked vehicle, and the information to be conveyed to the parking lot managers and managers through the hearing without any additional time or effort It may be delivered.

In addition, the emergency switch not only ensures the driver's safety from crime, but also immediately calls for assistance from the parking lot manager if necessary.

The parking positioning system proposed in the present invention can realize the advanced service by informing the parking lot manager and manager of the labor cost to find the customer's vehicle and other information easily and quickly to the driver. In addition, when a crime prevention in a parking lot and a driver's help are requested, a person in charge can be sent immediately to resolve the complaints of the driver of the vehicle, thus greatly reducing the waiting manpower in the parking lot.

If the parking confirmation system proposed in the present invention is a passive technology, it is judged that it is possible to significantly reduce the number of drivers who roam the parking lot to find their own vehicle as well as natural using human hearing.
