Definitions

  • the invention relates to a data download key to be connected to a digital tachograph.
  • the police authorities require, due to national law provisions, that the operating time and the driving speed of commercial lorries and busses be stored in an appropriate storage means. This is to allow the police authorities to check whether the national law provisions regarding speed limitations and social provisions, i.e. the limitation of the working time of the driver, have been properly observed. For this reason, to date the above vehicles have included an analogous tachograph that records by means of a stylus the operating time and the driving speed on a paper disc which may be mounted inside a tachograph.
  • the digital tachograph will digitally store the driver and vehicle data to a common storage device which is part of the digital tachograph itself. It could be easily understood that the data digitally stored in the storage device has to be read out for different purposes, including for: police authorities, maintenance facilities, transport or haulage companies, etc. who will need to evaluate the stored data to fulfill their particular tasks. Additionally, the provisions of the European directive EC/2135/96 will require a periodically performed download of the stored data in a consistent and confident manner and in accordance with EC regulations.
  • WO 96/31846 A1 and DE 32 21 398 A1 describe data download keys with one interface connectable alternatively to a digital tachograph or to a remote computer.
  • the present system allows for the download of data stored in the storage device of the digital tachograph to the external data download key that can be operated as a master or a slave with respect to the location where the controller unit is assigned. If the controller unit is assigned to the data download key, then the controller unit of the data download key will initiate the transfer of the stored data from the first data storage device to the first key data storage device after a proper conjunction of the first interface and the first key interface is detected by the controller. Additionally, due to the entered data type preselect key, only an authorized data type preselect key will lead to the transfer of data according to the preselected data type.
  • the system might have the first interface formed as a socket and the first key interface formed as a plug or vice versa.
  • the data download key might have a cover lid which removably protects its portion where the interface plug is arranged.
  • the invention provides for said first interface and for said first key interface comprising a conjunction of six pins; two of said at least six pins providing a power support for said data download key.
  • a conjunction having six pins represents a suitable connection for the data transfer.
  • said data type preselect unit can be designed as an authorization module allowing for the entering of an authorization key to determine the range of data to be transferred.
  • This feature can be realized in several different ways, including the authorization module being designed as a 10-digit field for dealing with a well-known pin code authorization procedure.
  • the authorization module may be designed as a card reader unit, and for the different types of required data, different types of authorization cards with the respective keys stored thereon.
  • the transfer of data is performed in a manner such that the range of requested data depends upon the result of an authorization key check performed by the program hosted on the controller unit. Even though the data download key is properly connected to the digital tachograph, via their respective interfaces, the transfer of data will be refused if the authorization key check fails. This measure provides for an additional level of security and consistency of the original data as well as avoids abuse and illegal manipulation of the data.
  • said data download key comprises a controller unit controlled by an external data processing device.
  • the data download key may operate as a master in controlling the data storage device of the digital tachograph, insofar as the data download key controller of the data download key can be initialized and initiate the transfer of data along with the scope of transferred data.
  • the data download key can be assigned by means of an external laptop or the like as a slave, meaning that the data currently downloaded from the digital tachograph is forwarded to another external data storage device such as the hard disk of a computer system operated by the police authorities.
  • the controller unit of the data download key receives from an external data processing device a message determining the mode of operation of the data download key.
  • the data download key is easily transportable and can store the preselected data, i.e. determinable by a preselectable data type, in a manner that an external data processing device can be connected to the second key interface to download the data stored on the first key data storage device.
  • said controlling means may host a data control master means to identify one of a predefined number of preselectable data types; said data control master means allow to control the digital tachograph insofar as only said identified preselected data type is to be transferred to said first key data storage means.
  • the data control master means may comprise an interface allowing to assign one of the predefined number of data types to the data control master means.
  • a suitable interface could be a bar code reader, a card reader unit, a wireless induction loop receiver or other suitable means being used for the same purpose. Appropriate power supply for those units and/or for the complete data download key is deliverable via the first key interface when connected to the interface of the digital tachograph.
  • Figure 1 depicts a general overview of a system 2 comprising: a digital tachograph 4, a data download key 6, and three different authorization key cards 8, 10, 12.
  • the digital tachograph 4 (which may be considered similar to the "black boxes" used in modern aircrafts) is recording, as shown in a display 14, the driving time, the driving speed and total kilometers of a vehicle (not shown in the drawings) into which the tachograph is appropriately integrated.
  • the integration of the tachograph into and/or with the vehicle is known tc one skilled in the art.
  • the digital tachography 4 comprises a data storage device 16 and a first, a second, and a third interface 18 ,20, and 22 respectively.
  • the first interface 18 is designed as a socket having six pins 23 to which a plug (see the first data download key interface 24) of the data download key 6 can be connected to in order to download data stored on the digital tachograph 4.
  • the second interface 20 is designed as a card reader unit allowing the driver of the vehicle to introduce his personal identification card (such as a driving license assigned for this vehicle or this type of vehicle).
  • the third interface 22 is designed as a card reader unit, and is used as an authorization module into which the different authorization key cards 8, 10, 12 are introduced so as to define the type of data permissible or otherwise made available for downloading.
  • the third interface 22 therefore can be considered as a data type preselect unit.
  • the different types of authorization key cards 8, 10, and 12 define different types of data profiles to be read out from the data storage device 16 to the data download key 6.
  • FIG 2 depicts a functional diagram of the elements comprising data download key 6 ( figure 1 ).
  • the first data download key interface 24 operates as a serial interface according to the RS232 provisions and uses two of the six pins 23 to receive electrical power from the digital tachograph 4.
  • the interface 24 is controlled by a micro controller ( ⁇ C) 37.
  • Micro controller 37 also controls a very simple human machine interface (mmi) 28 comprising two LED lamps 26 on the data download key (see Figure 4 ) to indicate the status of operation of the data download key 6.
  • the mmi 28 may contain a switch to switch the desired operation status from "Slave" to "Master” or vice versa.
  • the micro controller 37 controls a second interface 30 and a key data storage device 32 to which the downloaded data is forwarded.
  • the key data storage device 32 is an external flash memory card 34 inserted into a corresponding slot of the key data storage device 32. Additionally or alternatively, the key data storage device 32 may be designed as an internal flash memory card or a micro disc drive or other suitable means for storing data downloaded from digital tachograph 4.
  • a power supply unit 36 Connected to the first data download key interface 24 is a power supply unit 36 that comprises a DC/DC converter and a power supply circuit.
  • an external data processing unit (not shown in the drawings), such as a PC or a laptop, may be connected to the data download key 6 to assign the mode of operation to the data download key 6. Additionally, the second interface 30 may be used to download the data stored on the key data storage device 32.
  • the data download key 6 is in this embodiment operated in slave mode.
  • the second data download key interface 30 allows due to its USB standard a data transfer having a satisfying bandwidth.
  • FIG 3 illustrates a schematic view of a first data download key 38 which also provides an initial indication of the intended aesthetical design of the data download key 6 ( figure 1 ) 38.
  • Figures 3a depicts the first data download key interface 24 covered by lid 42 to protect the interface 24 ( figure 1 ) and the pins 23 in particular, the pin sockets from dust, dirt, and any other rough environmental circumstances or hazards which the data download key 38 may encounter when not in use.
  • the data download key 38 comprises a USB interface 30 as systematically depicted in Figure 2 .
  • another lid similar to lid 42 is available to cover the USB interface 30.
  • the data download key 38 is sufficiently robust to operate in a garage, vehicle maintenance company, a public transportation vehicle depot, and the like.
  • the data download key 38 is inserted with its sting-like portion 46 into the corresponding slot of the first interface 18 of the digital tachograph 4. Due to the guidance of the sting-like portions 46 achieved by the longitudinal extension, a reliable connection of the first data download key interface 24 with the first interface 18 may be achieved.
  • the data storage device 32 is an internal compact flash memory or a memory card (34) having a capacity of about 16 MB up to 512 MB which is not shown due to its concealed location under the illustrated housing.
  • FIG. 4a and 4b An example for a data download key 40 not part of the present invention is shown in Figure 4a and 4b and comprises a compact flash memory card as does data storage device 32, (discussed above) however the data storage device 32 in this example is oriented externally to allow the exchangeable replacement of the compact flash memory card 34. Again to protect the sensitive parts of the data download key 40 another lid member 50 is provided to protect the compact flash memory card 34 and the corresponding socket.
