A detailed description will be given below of a charging method provided by some embodiments of the present disclosure, which is applied to a charging management server, through fig. 2 to 7 and fig. 9 and 10 based on the scenario described in fig. 1.

Fig. 2 schematically shows a flowchart of a charging method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and fig. 9 schematically shows one of interaction flowcharts of an in-vehicle charging terminal and a charging management server according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, which is shown in conjunction with fig. 2 and 9, and the charging method of this embodiment includes steps S210 to S240.

It should be noted that, although the steps in fig. 2 are shown in sequence as indicated by arrows, the steps are not necessarily executed in sequence as indicated by the arrows. The steps are not performed in the exact order shown and may be performed in other orders unless explicitly stated herein. Moreover, at least some of the steps in the figures may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages that are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, in different orders, and may be performed alternately or in turns with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.

In step S210, a settlement request for the ith passenger, which is transmitted from the in-vehicle billing terminal, is acquired, and the settlement request includes the travel fee that has been currently accumulated. The i is a positive integer, the current accumulated travel cost specifically refers to travel cost accumulated by the vehicle-mounted charging terminal from the beginning of pricing to the current moment, and the travel cost can be obtained by the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sending a query request to the taxi charging server.

The charging method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can be suitable for a car sharing riding scene or a non-car sharing riding scene in a taxi carrying process. For the car-sharing riding scene, the ith passenger refers to a passenger which is about to get off among a plurality of passengers riding in the car-sharing riding; for a non-ride share scene, the ith passenger refers to the passenger currently riding the ride. For a car sharing riding scene, the current accumulated travel cost may refer to the travel cost accumulated from the time when the first passenger gets on the car to the time when the ith passenger gets off the car; for a non-carpooling riding scenario, the currently accumulated travel cost may refer to the travel cost accumulated from the time the ith passenger gets on the bus to the time the ith passenger gets off the bus.

The in-vehicle billing terminal may transmit a settlement request of the ith passenger to the charge management server according to a first operation of the driver. For example, the vehicle-mounted billing terminal may include a display screen and an operation button, and when the ith passenger arrives at the destination, the driver may select to settle the ith passenger through the operation button and the display screen, so that the vehicle-mounted billing terminal transmits a settlement request of the ith passenger to the charge management server. The operating keyboard can also be used for starting up, shutting down and adjusting the volume.

In step S220, the ETC fee of the ith passenger is acquired. The ETC fee of the ith passenger is calculated by the charging management server according to at least one ETC payment information and the number of real-time carpooling people during the taking period of the ith passenger, and each of the at least one ETC payment information is extracted from communication data between the vehicle-mounted ETC module and the toll station when the taxi passes through the toll station every time by the vehicle-mounted charging terminal.

When the taxi passes through the toll station at every turn, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal can acquire and analyze communication data between the ETC module and the toll station, and then obtain ETC payment information of the taxi when passing through the toll station. The ETC payment information may include ETC fee deduction amount information, transaction time information, toll station number information, station passing information, and device information. And then, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends the obtained ETC payment information to a charging management server. The vehicle-mounted charging terminal can comprise a microwave data acquisition module, the microwave data acquisition module can monitor communication data between the vehicle-mounted ETC module and a lane antenna of a toll station, and then communication data between the ETC module and the toll station are acquired and analyzed, so that ETC payment information is obtained.

The vehicle-mounted charging terminal can be used for printing the mark to be charged on the ETC payment information acquired after the ith passenger gets on the vehicle, and the charging management server calculates the ETC fee of the ith passenger when acquiring the ETC payment information with the mark to be charged.

When the charging management server acquires the settlement request of the ith passenger sent by the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, the real-time carpooling number of the ith passenger during the riding period can be determined firstly.

For example, let T1 be the ride duration of the ith passenger, where the ride duration T1 includes a first phase T11 and a second phase T12 following the first phase T11. In the first stage t11, the ith-1 passenger takes the taxi independently, in the second stage t12, the ith-1 passenger and the ith passenger share the taxi, at the moment, the second stage t12 is a taxi sharing time period, and the number of real-time taxi sharing people is two.

The charge management server can share the ETC cost in the ETC payment information to each car sharing person when calculating the ETC cost of the ith passenger according to the ETC payment information and the real-time car sharing number. For example, in the first stage t11, if the toll collection management server receives the ETC payment information, the ETC fee paid when passing through the toll station can be determined from the ETC payment information, and at this time, because the ith passenger does not get on the vehicle, the ETC fee paid when passing through the toll station is born by the ith-1 passenger alone. At the second stage t12, if the toll collection management server receives ETC payment information, ETC fees paid when the toll station is passed can be determined from the ETC payment information, at the moment, because the (i-1) th passenger and the (i) th passenger share the car, the ETC fees paid when the toll station is passed can be distributed to the (i-1) th passenger and the (i) th passenger, wherein the part distributed to the (i) th passenger is the ETC fees of the (i) th passenger.

In step S230, the fare payable by the ith passenger is determined based on the currently accumulated trip fare and the ETC fare of the ith passenger.

After obtaining the ETC fee of the ith passenger, the currently accumulated trip fee can be deducted according to the car sharing situation during the taking of the ith passenger, for example, the ith passenger has passengers before getting on the car, and then the fee before getting on the car of the ith passenger should be deducted. And summarizing the deducted travel cost and the ETC cost of the ith passenger so as to obtain the payment due to the ith passenger.

In step S240, the chargeable fee of the ith passenger is transmitted to the in-vehicle billing terminal.

The vehicle-mounted charging terminal can provide an electronic payment mode, for example, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal can generate a corresponding two-dimensional code according to the charge to be paid of the ith passenger, and then the two-dimensional code can be displayed through the display screen, and the ith passenger can pay in a mode of scanning the two-dimensional code.

Optionally, besides the two-dimensional code, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal may further display the amount of the fee to be paid, and the vehicle-mounted charging terminal may further provide other non-contact payment methods, for example, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal further includes an NFC card reader, a bank card non-contact card reader, and the like, so as to implement electronic payment methods for multiple phones.

To sum up, adopt the charging method that provides of this disclosed embodiment, it can follow the communication data of on-vehicle ETC module and toll station through on-vehicle charging terminal and acquire ETC information of collecting fee, charge management server can be in ith passenger's the period of taking, based on the ETC information of collecting fee, combine real-time car sharing number, confirm ith passenger's ETC expense, and then, gather according to ith passenger's journey expense and ETC expense, thereby realize the automatic settlement of journey expense and ETC expense under the car sharing scene, can make the passenger need not the manual calculation expense that should pay from this, prevent to appear the problem such as payment error, guarantee convenient, accurate, the security that the passenger paid non-cash.

The following further describes the charging method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure with reference to fig. 2 to fig. 7 and fig. 9 and fig. 10.

Fig. 3 schematically shows a flow chart of generating a ride record according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and fig. 10 schematically shows a second interaction flow chart of the vehicle-mounted billing terminal and the charging management server according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and in combination with fig. 3 and fig. 10, in some specific embodiments, the billing method further includes step S310 and step S320.

In step S310, a boarding request for the ith passenger sent by the in-vehicle billing terminal is acquired.

The in-vehicle billing terminal may transmit a getting-on request of the ith passenger to the charge management server according to a second operation of the driver. For example, when the ith passenger gets on the bus, the driver can select to bill the ith passenger by operating the vehicle-mounted billing terminal, so that the vehicle-mounted billing terminal sends the getting-on request of the ith passenger to the billing management server.

In a multi-person carpooling scene, each passenger is supported to get on the car at the same or different time points, for example, when an i-1 th passenger gets on the car, a driver presses a meter, a vehicle-mounted charging terminal automatically sends out a getting-on request of the i-1 th passenger, and a charging management server generates a riding record of the i-1 th passenger. When the ith passenger gets on the bus, the driver selects 'the second passenger gets on the bus' through the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends out the request of getting on the bus of the ith passenger, and the charging management server generates the riding record of the ith passenger.

In step S320, a riding record of the ith passenger is generated according to the getting-on request, wherein the riding record comprises the travel number, the settlement state of the riding record and the real-time ETC fee of the ith passenger.

The trip number may be generated from the vehicle information, the trip occurrence date, and the order in which the trips occurred. The settlement status may include both settled and unsettled status, for example, for the ith passenger, when the ith passenger has paid for the outstanding payment, the ride record of the ith passenger may be updated to the settled status, and before that, the settled status. The ETC fee of the ith passenger can be updated in real time after the ith passenger gets on the bus, so as to obtain the real-time ETC fee, for example, the ETC fee of the ith passenger is updated every time the ith passenger passes through a toll station after getting on the bus.

The toll management server may store other related information such as a driver number and a number of passing toll stations, in addition to the trip number, the settlement status, and the real-time ETC fee, when generating the riding record of the ith passenger.

Optionally, the driver on duty can use the mobile phone terminal to register, and vehicle information and driver information are reserved in the system, wherein the vehicle information includes but is not limited to a license plate number, an ETC card number and an ETC payment account, and the driver information includes but is not limited to driver identity information, a trip fee collection account number and a mobile phone number. One vehicle-mounted charging terminal supports binding of taxi information and multiple driver information.

When a driver shifts, the driver presses a login button in shift, the system automatically generates a login two-dimensional code and displays the login two-dimensional code on a display screen, and the system automatically identifies the login two-dimensional code after the driver scans the code and finishes login processing.

When the driver clicks the login button, a mobile phone number can be reserved during registration input on a display screen of the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, the charging management server automatically checks whether the mobile phone number is registered, if so, a verification code is sent to the mobile phone, and after the driver fills in the verification code, the charging management server completes the login processing of the driver.

Optionally, a display screen of the vehicle-mounted billing terminal may display a login and sign-off page, and after the driver logs in, a collection amount, a two-dimensional code, and the like may be displayed.

Optionally, the vehicle-mounted billing terminal may further include a speaker for prompting the driver to log in, sign back, and collect a successful amount.

Fig. 4 schematically illustrates a flow chart of adding an amount to be deducted according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 4, in some specific embodiments, step S320 includes step S321.

In step S321, if there is a riding record generated before the riding record of the ith passenger and the settlement status of the riding record is in an unsettled status, it is described that there is a passenger riding before the ith passenger gets on the bus and the trip of the passenger is not yet finished, and therefore, when the riding record of the ith passenger is generated, the amount to be deducted is added to the riding record of the ith passenger. Otherwise, it means that the ith passenger has no passenger who has not finished his journey before, and at this time, the amount to be deducted is not added.

The amount to be deducted comprises the travel cost accumulated before the ith passenger gets on the bus, the travel cost accumulated before the ith passenger gets on the bus specifically refers to the travel cost accumulated from the beginning of pricing by the vehicle-mounted charging terminal to the time when the ith passenger gets on the bus, and the travel cost can be obtained after the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends a query request to the taxi charging server.

For example, when the ith-1 passenger gets on the bus, the driver presses the taximeter, the travel fee of the ith-1 passenger is calculated at the moment, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal automatically sends the getting-on request of the ith-1 passenger, and the charging management server generates the riding record B1 of the ith-1 passenger. When the ith passenger gets on the bus, the driver selects 'the second passenger gets on the bus' through the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends out the request of getting on the bus of the ith passenger, and the charging management server generates a riding record B2 of the ith passenger. At the moment, the (i-1) th passenger does not arrive at the destination, the (i-1) th passenger and the (i) th passenger are in a car sharing state, and the travel numbers of the riding record B1 and the riding record B2 are the same. The charging management server may query the in-vehicle charging terminal (or the taxi charging server through the in-vehicle charging terminal) for the travel fee accumulated before the ith passenger gets on the bus, and add the fee to the bus record B2 as the amount to be deducted.

In some embodiments, after the ith passenger gets on the vehicle, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal may acquire communication data between the vehicle-mounted ETC module and the toll station each time the ith passenger passes through the toll station, and analyze and acquire the ETC payment information and send the ETC payment information to the toll management server. The charging management server calculates the real-time ETC fee of the ith passenger after receiving the ETC payment information each time.

Specifically, fig. 5 schematically illustrates a flowchart of updating ETC fees according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 5, the calculating of the ETC fee of the ith passenger according to at least one ETC payment information and the real-time carpooler number by the toll management server during the ride of the ith passenger includes steps S410 and S420.

In step S410, each time the ETC payment information is acquired, the current number of carpools is determined according to the trip number in the ith passenger taking record and the trip number and the settlement state in the other passenger taking records.

When the journey number is generated, the same journey number can be generated for the passengers of the carpool through the operation of a driver, for example, when the i-1 st passenger gets on the bus, the driver can select 'the first passenger gets on the bus' through the display screen of the vehicle-mounted charging terminal and sends a corresponding getting-on request, so that the charging management server generates the riding record of the i-1 st passenger. When the ith passenger gets on the bus, the ith-1 passenger does not arrive at the destination, the driver can select 'the second passenger gets on the bus' through the display screen of the vehicle-mounted charging terminal and sends a corresponding getting-on request, so that the charging management server generates the riding record of the ith passenger, and at the moment, the travel numbers in the riding records of the ith passenger and the ith passenger can be the same.

When determining the current number of carpools, the determination may be made based on whether there is an outstanding ride record among ride records having the same trip number. For example, after the i-1 st passenger gets on the car, the trip number A1 is generated for the i-1 st passenger, when the i-1 st passenger gets on the car, the i-1 st passenger does not arrive at the destination, at this time, the trip number generated for the i-th passenger is also the trip number A1, and the taking record of the i-th passenger is in an unpaid state, so that the i-1 st passenger and the i-th passenger can be determined to be in a car pooling state, and the current number of car pooling is '2'.

In step S420, according to the obtained ETC payment information and the current number of carpools, the current ETC fee of the ith passenger is calculated, and the riding record of the ith passenger is updated.

The ETC expense of paying the fee when passing through the toll station can be extracted after the toll management server acquires ETC payment information, and then according to the current car sharing number, the ETC expense of paying the fee when passing through the toll station is shared for each car sharing person. For example, when the i-1 st passenger and the ith passenger are pieced together, the ETC fee paid when the passengers pass through the toll station can be averagely distributed to the i-1 st passenger and the ith passenger, so that the ETC fee which is supposed to be borne by the i-1 st passenger and the ith passenger when the passengers pass through the toll station is obtained, and the ETC fee in the respective riding records is updated according to the determined ETC fee which is supposed to be borne by the i-1 st passenger and the ith passenger.

Fig. 6 schematically illustrates a flowchart of calculating the chargeable fee according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 6, in some specific embodiments, when the ride record of the ith passenger is generated, if there is a ride record generated before the ride record of the ith passenger and the settlement status of the ride record is in an unsettled status, that is, in a multi-person carpooling scenario, step S220 includes steps S221 to S223.

In step S221, the amount to be deducted is deducted from the currently accumulated travel fare to obtain the travel fare to be paid for the ith passenger.

In step S222, the trip fee to be paid of the ith passenger is discounted according to a preset car pool discount policy.

For example, when the ith-1 passenger gets on the bus, the charging management server generates a riding record B1 of the ith-1 passenger, and when the ith passenger gets on the bus, the charging management server generates a riding record B2 of the ith passenger, at this time, the ith-1 passenger does not arrive at the destination, the ith-1 passenger and the ith passenger are in a car sharing state, the riding record B1 is the same as the travel number of the riding record B2, and the riding record B1 is in an unpaid state. When the travel charge to be paid of the ith passenger is calculated, the travel charge generated after the ith passenger gets on the vehicle can be obtained by deducting the amount to be deducted from the current accumulated travel charge. Thus, the travel cost generated before the ith passenger gets on the bus is borne by the ith-1 passenger alone. The preset car sharing discount strategy can comprise discount strength under various car sharing scenes, for example, the discount strength can be appropriately improved along with the increase of the number of car sharing people, and the discount strength can be determined according to actual needs and is not listed.

For the trip fee generated after the ith passenger gets on the car, since the ith-1 passenger and the ith passenger are in a car-sharing state at this time, a certain discount can be given to the part of the fee according to the car-sharing mode, for example, the part of the fee can be given a seven-fold discount, so that the driver receives more trip fee in the car-sharing situation than in the non-car-sharing situation; in a ride share situation, the passenger pays less travel fees than in a non-ride share situation.

In step S223, the discounted travel fee to be paid and the ETC fee of the ith passenger are summarized to obtain the fee to be paid of the ith passenger.

For example, the discounted travel fee to be paid may be added to the ETC fee of the ith passenger, thereby obtaining the chargeable fee of the ith passenger.

In a multi-person carpooling scenario, embodiments of the present disclosure support for each passenger to disembark for settlement at the same or different points in time. For example, when the (i-1) th passenger gets off the vehicle, the driver selects 'first passenger gets off' through the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends out the settlement request of the (i-1) th passenger, and the charge management server generates the charge to be paid for the (i-1) th passenger. When the ith passenger gets off the bus, the driver selects 'the second passenger gets off' through the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends out the settlement request of the ith passenger, and the charge management server generates the fee to be paid for the passenger.

When the passenger pays, the vehicle-mounted charging terminal sends a transaction request message to the charging management server, the charging management server and the bank server interactively complete the payment processing, and returns a processing result to the vehicle-mounted charging terminal, thereby completing the payment process.

The passenger's fee to be paid may be calculated by the following formula:

x ⁽ⁱ⁾ ＝max(q，a ⁽ⁱ⁾ -b ⁽ⁱ⁾ )*c+t ⁽ⁱ⁾

wherein x ⁽ⁱ⁾ Representing the charge to be paid by the ith passenger in the carpooling scenario, q representing the taxi starting fee, a ⁽ⁱ⁾ Representing the current accumulated trip cost of the ith passenger when alighting from the bus, b ⁽ⁱ⁾ Representing the travel charge accumulated before the ith passenger gets on the bus, c representing the discount rate of the carpooling mode, t ⁽ⁱ⁾ Indicating the ECT fee for the ith passenger.

When the driver on duty is charged in a car sharing scene, the total charge is paid to the passengers:

wherein f is the charge amount of the driver on duty in one car sharing scene, and n is the total number of passengers participating in the car sharing scene.

The algorithm can ensure that the charging of taxi drivers in the carpooling mode is higher than that in the non-carpooling mode, and ensure that the payment cost of carpooling passengers is less than that of independent riding, and the ETC cost can be divided into the carpooling passengers to realize automatic settlement. The discount rate of the taxi starting fee and the carpooling fee can be set and updated according to the latest version.

Alternatively, the charge management server may record the travel information in the form as shown in tables 1 and 2, mainly including information of a travel number, a driver number, a date, a start time, an end time, travel fees, etc., and provide travel start and travel end services. Wherein, table 1 schematically shows the recorded contents of a passenger getting on for a period of time, and table 2 schematically shows the recorded contents of the passenger getting off.
