[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a bicycle parking lot as a facility shared by many people, the owner of a bicycle or motorcycle manages a bicycle or the like at his / her own risk, and each person locks his or her own bicycle. Like that.

[0003] However, if a bicycle is free to be taken in and out of a paid bicycle parking lot, it is impossible to prevent unauthorized parking. Normally, a paid bicycle parking lot specifies a place where bicycles are parked, and a system that freely parks bicycles in a specified place is adopted. If you park your bicycle on a passage without permission, you may not be able to park your bicycle at your own location while paying a fee, or you may not be able to get in or out due to unauthorized bicycle parking in a passage or the like.

[0004] As a rental bicycle management system,
There is also a method of managing the keys of each bicycle with a key management panel provided with a card reader, but such a key management panel or the like is usually provided on a wall or the like, and the installation position is limited.

[0005] Therefore, it is possible to prevent unauthorized use such as information management of the right holder and parking without an authorized person, such as parking a bicycle without the right, and theft without the lock. Various bicycle parking systems have been proposed in which bicycles are provided with gates that can be opened and closed with cards in the entrance and exit passages of the bicycle parking lots.

Only the owner of the C card can open the gate by putting the card on the card reader when entering or leaving, preventing unauthorized persons from entering and leaving the facility without permission. it can.

Various types of rental bicycles using such a dedicated IC card can be freely selected, the centralized information can be obtained at the central management center, the information can be transmitted directly to the site using a memory card, and directly transmitted to the site using a memory card. Thus, a system is also possible in which a rental bicycle is placed in a bicycle parking lot or the like, and only a person who has a dedicated IC card can borrow this rental bicycle freely. Furthermore, it is also possible to introduce a system in which a rental bicycle that has been borrowed at a plurality of bicycle parking lots or the like can be dropped off at another bicycle parking lot.

In addition, the bibliographic matter when the dedicated IC card is issued in the host-side device is input to the memory card issued by the memory card reader / writer, and the gate opening / closing control device of the facility-side gate device is input by the memory card. Since data is input via a connected memory card reader / writer, data input and the like can be simplified even when the usage facilities are located at a plurality of locations that are nearby or relatively remote. Moreover,
It is not necessary to install a personal computer or the like at the installation location of the facility-side gate device, and the space is not taken up, and the cost is low including equipment costs and maintenance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a gate opening / closing system provided in a bicycle parking lot or other facilities shared by many people.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a bicycle parking lot as a facility shared by many people, the owner of a bicycle or motorcycle manages a bicycle or the like at his / her own risk, and each person locks his or her own bicycle. Like that.

[0003] However, if a bicycle is free to be taken in and out of a paid bicycle parking lot, it is impossible to prevent unauthorized parking. Normally, a paid bicycle parking lot specifies a place where bicycles are parked, and a system that freely parks bicycles in a specified place is adopted. If you park your bicycle on a passage without permission, you may not be able to park your bicycle at your own location while paying a fee, or you may not be able to get in or out due to unauthorized bicycle parking in a passage or the like.

[0004] As a rental bicycle management system,
There is also a method of managing the keys of each bicycle with a key management panel provided with a card reader, but such a key management panel or the like is usually provided on a wall or the like, and the installation position is limited.

[0005] Therefore, it is possible to prevent unauthorized use such as information management of the right holder and parking without an authorized person, such as parking a bicycle without the right, and theft without the lock. Various bicycle parking systems have been proposed in which bicycles are provided with gates that can be opened and closed with cards in the entrance and exit passages of the bicycle parking lots.

Japanese Patent Application No. 04-080274 (Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 06-020788), Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 03-88000, and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 08-296336 are examples.

[0007]

However, a conventional system such as a bicycle parking lot which performs management by using a card is intended for only one bicycle parking lot, and is not for simultaneous management of a plurality of facilities. In addition, there is an inconvenience that a personal computer is directly inserted into the entrance / departure facility of a bicycle parking lot which uses an existing card to manage the bicycle parking lot, and the information is directly input to the personal computer at that facility every time a card is issued.

An object of the present invention is to solve the inconvenience of the above-mentioned conventional example. Cards are issued at a central management center such as a management office in one place, and use facilities are distributed nearby or relatively remotely. Even in cases where there are multiple locations, it is possible to simplify data entry, etc., efficiently operate high-use items and time zones, and easily transmit multiple pieces of information to the site after issuing a card. By using multiple facilities to manage such a single location, it was not possible to drop it from one bicycle parking lot to the next under the same management. It is an object of the present invention to provide a gate opening / closing system that enables a management method.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a host-side device for installing a host computer and an IC card writer and a memory card reader / writer connected to the host computer in a management office, and a facility such as a bicycle parking lot. A gate that is opened and closed by a dedicated IC card issued by the IC card writer provided at the entrance of the building, and a device for reading the dedicated IC card provided near the gate is a facility-side gate device. A non-contact reader that is assembled on a pole that stands upright, and the gate is a supporter that stands up with a gap between the supports that have a flapper that projects horizontally when closed and that hangs down when opened. The gate opening / closing control device of the facility side gate device has a memory connected to the host computer. A memory card reader / writer equivalent to a card reader / writer is connected, and instead of connecting the host computer and the gate opening / closing control device, a memory card for input / output between these two memory card reader / writers is provided. The bibliographic information at the time of issuance is input to the memory card issued by the memory card reader / writer, and the memory card is input to the gate opening / closing controller of the facility side gate device via the connected memory card reader / writer. The gist is to do.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, a plurality of facility-side gate devices correspond to one host-side device by combining the host-side device and the facility-side gate device. A dedicated IC card is issued, a gate is set up at the entrance of the facility, and a dedicated I which opens and closes it.
Only the owner of the C card can open the gate by putting the card on the card reader when entering or leaving, preventing unauthorized persons from entering and leaving the facility without permission. it can.

[0011] Various types of bicycles to be rented using such a dedicated IC card can be freely selected, the centralized information can be obtained at the central management center, the information can be directly transmitted to the site by a memory card, the bicycles can be rented at a bicycle parking lot, etc. A system is also possible in which only the owner of the IC card can freely borrow this rental bicycle. Furthermore, it is also possible to introduce a system in which a rental bicycle that has been borrowed at a plurality of bicycle parking lots or the like can be dropped off at another bicycle parking lot.

In addition, the bibliographic matter when the dedicated IC card is issued in the host-side device is input to the memory card issued by the memory card reader / writer, and the gate opening / closing control device of the facility-side gate device is input by the memory card. Since data is input via a connected memory card reader / writer, data input and the like can be simplified even when the usage facilities are located at a plurality of locations that are nearby or relatively remote. Moreover,
It is not necessary to install a personal computer or the like at the installation location of the facility-side gate device, and the space is not taken up, and the cost is low including equipment costs and maintenance.

The dedicated IC card reader can be installed at an appropriate distance from the gate by incorporating the dedicated IC card reader into a pole that stands upright near the gate, and can be set at a height at which the dedicated IC card can be easily read.

Since the dedicated IC card reader is a non-contact reader, the dedicated IC card can be read easily and quickly.

Since the gate is of a vertical type with a safety valve that operates each time the flapper operates, an installation space can be reduced.
