2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a system for managing the disposal of an automobile, there is, for example, a used automobile recycling information management system disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-53045. According to this conventional technique, service history data including first manifest information for managing disposal of a used vehicle and second manifest information for managing disposal of parts dismantled from the vehicle based on a manifest system is provided. This is a data management system that manages and discharges end-of-life vehicles, and a processing company that is requested by the business to input and output both manifest information as needed.
Further, in this conventional technique, a server computer storing a system management program for managing both manifest information in a storage device, and computer networks of the two companies are connected by a network. In the first manifest information, the grant numbers of a plurality of corresponding second manifest information are described, and the system management program
The two manifest information are managed in association with each other.

The above prior art has the following problems. (1) The disposal company does not know the specifications of the parts of the vehicle to be disposed of, for example, how to remove each part or the material. Therefore, it is not possible to properly dispose of the vehicle. As a result, despite being reusable parts, the parts may be disposed of by "incineration" or "landfill," etc. Could not increase the reuse rate. (2) Many parts disassembled and reused by the processing company are similar, and handling errors may occur when the parts are reused as used parts. That is, even if the same parts of a car, for example, a bumper, are similar to ones that cannot be distinguished by amateurs, when the parts are purchased and mounted on the car, the parts may not be attached properly. (3) Since many of the processing companies are micro enterprises, the sales channels for dismantled and reusable parts are narrow. For this reason, even if the processing company has reusable parts in stock, the chance of purchasing the part as a used part is small, and only the stock increases. (4) Although an automobile manufacturer (maker) knows parts and materials that can be reused in theory, it is not possible to know the ratio of these parts that are actually reused, that is, the actual recycling rate. For example, for each processing company, for each vehicle type,
Or, the actual recycling rate cannot be grasped for each part.

[0004] Regarding the "recycling rate", at present, it is not clear whether the recycling rate is high or low. For example, as to which car recycling rate is high or not, it is known that there will be this much in Japan or in each municipality, but it is not known whether that is true. In addition, even if it says a recycling rate, the division method and the definition are different for each manufacturer. Therefore, the data on the recycling rate is ambiguous as data. If the recycling rate data can be grasped by the manufacturer and the recycling rate is higher than that of other companies, the competitiveness in selling can be improved.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances and the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to enable proper disposal of a car, improve the recycling rate of parts, and improve the recycling rate. It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved scrap car processing method and scrap car processing system. Another object is to prevent a handling error from occurring at the time of reuse. Another object is to expand the sales channels of the processing companies and promote reuse. Still another object is to enable the actual recycling rate to be ascertained for each processing company, each vehicle type, or each component.

It is characterized by being allowed.

According to a sixteenth aspect of the present invention, in the scrap car processing system according to the fifteenth aspect, the information processing apparatus includes:
In the information of the description items of the manifest that the discharger issues to the carrier and the processor, the manifest information transmitted from the terminal of the discharger is stored in the processing information database, and the terminal of the carrier is stored. And the information such as the delivery completion date and the delivery number of the manifest transmitted from the terminal and the information such as the processing completion date and the delivery number transmitted from the terminal of the processing company are stored in the processing information database. .

According to the first and ninth aspects of the present invention, the processing company can search and know the processing method of each part of the vehicle from the component database based on the identification information of the vehicle to be disposed of. . In this way, when the vehicle is disposed of, the disposal company can know from the component database how to handle the parts whose removal method is unknown, and refer to the processing method to remove the parts. And the like can be appropriately performed. Thereby, the number of parts removed from the car and reused as "used parts" can be increased. In other words, although it is theoretically reusable, it is possible to reduce the number of parts that are discarded, such as "incineration" and "landfill", because the method of removal and the like are not known. . Therefore, it is possible to properly dispose of the vehicle, and it is possible to improve the recycling rate of the parts and improve the recycling rate. Note that, for example, a vehicle type, a model year, a chassis number, and the like can be used as “vehicle identification information”, and, for example, a part name, a part number, and the like can be used as “parts identification information”.

According to the second and tenth aspects of the present invention, the search of the processing method is performed based on the identification information of the vehicle and the identification information of the parts. The processing method can be obtained immediately.

According to the third and eleventh aspects of the present invention, the disposal company can also know the material of each part of the vehicle to be disposed of from the component parts database. For a component to be recovered, a process suitable for the material can be performed to increase the recovery rate of the material. Therefore, the recycling rate of the material can be improved, and the recycling rate can be further improved.

According to the fourth and twelfth aspects of the present invention, the processing information database on the manager side stores processing information for each part classified by processing type for all parts removed from one vehicle by the processing company. Will be saved for each vehicle model. For this reason, a purchaser of a used part of a car, for example, a user of the car, uses his / her own terminal to specify a vehicle type and a part and to search for processing information in a processing information database.
The presence or absence of a desired used part can be known from the types of processing classified, for example, as “reusable parts”. Therefore, the purchaser of the used part can know the stock of the reusable part (the stock of the used part), and can purchase the used part on the computer network.

Moreover, by specifying the desired used part by the identification information of the car and the identification information of the part, the used part can be handled without mistake. In other words, since a desired used part can be purchased without being mistaken for a similar product, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a handling error at the time of reuse, in which the purchased used part cannot be attached to the own vehicle.

Further, the manager can grasp, from the processing information database, the processing information of the vehicle actually disposed by the processing company for each vehicle type and each component.
Therefore, the actual recycling rate can be ascertained for each vehicle type or each component based on the processing information.

According to the fifth and thirteenth aspects of the present invention, when the processing information database is searched based on both the identification information of the car and the part, the information of the processing company having the stock of the used part desired, that is, Information on which processor has a used part can be obtained. By sharing this information on a computer network,
A purchaser of a used part can directly deal with the processor and the used part. Therefore, the sales channel of the processing company is expanded, and the reuse of the reusable used parts removed by the disposal processing can be promoted.

According to the sixth and fourteenth aspects of the present invention, as described above, on the manager side, all the parts removed from one vehicle by the processing company are classified according to the processing type from the processing information database. In addition to being able to grasp the processing information of each component, information such as the weight of all the components and the number of components per vehicle can be obtained from the component database. For this reason, on the manager side, from the component parts database and the processing information database, which processor has taken out what part and how many parts from which type of vehicle, and furthermore, the type of processing, for example, "reusable The processing information for each part classified by "a good part", "a part whose material can be collected after processing" and the like can be obtained. As a result, it is possible to grasp the recycling rate for each processing company, each vehicle type, and each component. That is, the “recycling rate” per vehicle can be determined by the following equation: recycling rate = total weight of reusable parts / total weight of all parts constituting one vehicle. Here, the “total weight of reusable parts” is the weight of all reusable parts or the sum of the same weight and the weight of all recyclable materials collected from parts.

As described above, the actual recycling rate could not be grasped so far, and the automobile manufacturer could only say that the recycling rate was set to what percentage in theory, but the actual recycling rate was announced. can do. As a result, if the actual recycling rate can be made higher than that of other companies, the competitiveness of the automobile manufacturer can be enhanced.

According to the seventh and fifteenth aspects of the present invention, information on a disposal company that has a stock of a desired used part can be made available to the user of the vehicle, a discharge company and a transportation company involved in the disposal of the vehicle. Therefore, these traders and users can directly deal with used processors with the processing trader. Therefore, the sales channel of the processing company is further expanded, and the reuse of the reusable used parts removed by the disposal can be further promoted.

Further, information on a disposal company having a stock of used parts is related to a manifest issued for the disposal of a car, and is stored in a registrant database and given an ID, and a discharge business. Only carriers, carriers and treatments will be available. This simplifies procedures and information transfer in implementing the present invention, and facilitates management on the part of the administrator when implementing the method.

According to the eighth and sixteenth aspects of the invention, the manifest paper issued by the discharge company to the carrier and the processor is discharged by the carrier and the processor with the completion mark and the completion date of the processing. When returned to the business,
The discharge company only needs to access the processing information database and check how many days the carrier and the processor have completed the processing. At this time, when the manifest completion information of the processing information database is searched based on the grant number, it is possible to know when the transportation of the vehicle by the carrier and the disposal by the processor are completed. Therefore, the trouble of managing the manifest by the discharge company can be omitted, and the management becomes easy.

Also, the search based on the grant number allows the automobile manufacturer to easily know what the manifest of the grant number is currently.
Further, for the carrier, a copy of the manifest containing the completion mark and the completion date of the processing by the processor must be stored, but by the search based on the grant number,
The completion date can be easily known, and the manifest can be easily managed.

It is stored, and the registration information 58 of the processing company shown in FIG. 5 is formed.

The information on the processing company ID is stored in the management server 2
1 to the terminal 26, and a processing company ID is given to the processing company. Thereafter, the processing company ID is checked by the management server 21 with the processing company ID of the registration information 58 stored in the registrant database 34, and if they match, the processing company accesses the management server 21 through the terminal 25,
It is possible to transmit information, search for used parts, which will be described later, and the like.

After the trader registration, the processing trader transmits the manifest completion information 92 shown in FIG. The manifest completion information 92 includes data such as a processing company ID, a grant number, and a date (processing completion date) at which the scrapping process was completed.

When the manifest complete information 92 is transmitted from the terminal 26, the management server 21 checks the grant number included in the information 92 with the grant number of the manifest information 51 stored in the manifest totaling database 33, and Then, it is determined whether or not to receive 92 (see processing 96 shown in FIG. 12). If the two grant numbers match and a determination result of "acceptance" is obtained, the manifest completion information 92 is received, and the information 92 is stored in the manifest totaling database 33, and the manifest completion including the data of the processing company ID and the processing completion date is performed. Information 53 (see FIG. 4) is formed. on the other hand,
If the two grant numbers do not match, the determination result of “not accepted” is transmitted from the management server 21 to the terminal 26. In this case, the processing company needs to input the correct grant number again and transmit the manifest completion information 92 to the management server 21 again.

When the manifest completion information 92 transmitted by the terminal 26 is received in this manner, the operation of the scrapping process is completed. The manifest completion information 92 received by the management server 21 is transmitted to the terminals 24 and 25.

[Procedure of scrap car processing] Next, the scrap car processing procedure executed by the scrap car processing system, that is, after the scrap car processing of the car is entrusted to the discharge company by the user, the car is discarded by the disposal company. The steps to be followed
A description will be given based on FIG. 2 and FIG.

First, as described above, the discharging company entrusted with the scrapping process by the user transmits the company registration information 71 shown in FIG. 10 to the management server 21 through the terminal 24 and registers the company (step S100). .

Thereafter, on the management server 21 side, an emission company ID is created for the transmitted company registration information 71, and
The ID is transmitted to the terminal 24 and given to the discharge company, and the ID is stored in the registrant database 34 together with the trader registration information 71 to form the registration information 56 shown in FIG. 5 (step S102).

After that, the discharge company transmits the manifest information 72 shown in FIG. 10 to the management server 21 through the terminal 24 as described above (step S104). The transmitted manifest information 72 is stored in the manifest totaling database 33 by the control unit 31 to form the manifest information 51 (step S106).

After that, the transporter and the processing contractor entrusted with the transportation of the scrapped vehicle and the disposal of the scrapped vehicle, respectively, by the discharge company, as described above, store the dealer registration information 81 and 91 shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. Then, the information is transmitted to the management server 21 by the terminal 26 and registered as a trader (step S108).

Thereafter, on the management server 21 side, a carrier ID is created for the dealer registration information 81, and the carrier ID is stored in the terminal 2.
5 and given to the carrier, and the same ID
Is stored in the registrant database 34 together with the trader registration information 81 to form the registration information 57 shown in FIG. Similarly, the processing company ID is sent to the transmitted company registration information 91.
Is transmitted to the terminal 26 and given to the processing company, and the ID is stored in the registrant database 34 together with the company registration information 91 to form the registration information 58 shown in FIG. S110).

Thereafter, when the transportation of the scrapped vehicle is completed, the transporter transmits the manifest completion information 82 shown in FIG. 11 to the management server 21 through the terminal 25 (step S).
112).

Thereafter, the management server 21 stores the manifest completion information 82 transmitted from the terminal 25 in the manifest totaling database 33 if the result of the determination of “accepted” is obtained by the above collation of the grant numbers (step S).
114).

Next, when actually processing the scrapped vehicle, the processing company searches the part specifications of the parts whose processing method such as the removal method is unknown (step S116). For this search, the processing company accesses the management server 21 through the terminal 26 and, based on the identification information of the vehicle and the identification information of the parts, searches for a desired part of the vehicle to be scrapped (a part whose part specification is desired). The processing method is searched from the component database 32. At this time, the part specification search information 93 shown in FIG. 12 is input from the terminal 26 and transmitted to the management server 21. This information 93 includes “vehicle type” as vehicle identification information.
And "part name" and "part number" data as part identification information. A desired part of a certain vehicle type is specified by the part specification search information 93, and part specification information 97 on the part is obtained from the component part database 32. As shown in FIG. 12, the part use information 97 includes data such as vehicle type, part name, number per vehicle, material, processing method, and part number.

The part use information 97 is stored in the management server 21
Is transmitted to the terminal 26 (step S118). In this way, the processing contractor can obtain the component specification information 97 for the desired component whose processing method such as the removal method is unknown when performing the scrap car processing, and refer to the processing method and the like included in the information 97 for the component. , Etc., can be accurately performed.

When the disposal company completes the disposal process, the same company sends the completed stamp and the dated manifest to the discharge company and the carrier, respectively, and transmits the manifest completion information 92 (see FIG. 12) as described above. Terminal 2
6 to the management server 21 (step S12).
0). This manifest completion information 92 is stored in the manifest totaling database 33, and data on the processing company of the manifest completion information 53 (see FIG. 4B) is formed.

Thus, the processing company that has completed the scrapping process manages, with the terminal 26, the processing information 94 (see FIG. 12) for all the parts removed from one vehicle, classified by "processing type". Send it to server 21. The processing information 94 includes data such as a grant number, a part name, a processing method, and a number. The processing information 94 of each component transmitted from the terminal 26 in this manner is stored in the manifest totaling database 33 shown in FIG.

Here, the processing methods included in the processing information 94 include, for example, “reusable parts”, “parts that can be reused by processing”, “parts that can collect materials by processing”, and “incineration”. Parts to be disposed of "," Parts to be disposed of by landfill "
And the like, and includes data relating to the “type of processing”. In addition, "a part that can be reused by processing" means a part that can be reused by performing a repairing process on the peeling or scratches of the coating of the part.

Next, for each component included in the processing information 94 transmitted from the terminal 26, the management server 21 determines whether or not “reuse” is possible (step S124). Here, it is determined that the part is a “reusable” part.
This is the case where the part corresponds to a “reusable part” and a “part that can be reused if processed”.

If the decision result in the step S 124 is NO, that is, if the component is not a “reusable” component, the process proceeds to a step S 128, and the component that is not reused is listed in the manifest totaling database 33 as a component that is not reused. To save.

On the other hand, the determination result of step S124 is YE
In the case of S, that is, if the part is a “reusable” part, the part is stored in the used parts stock information 54 of the manifest totaling database 33 as the stock of the processing company.

Thus, the above steps S124 to S128
By the disposal of a certain type of vehicle 1
Of all the parts actually removed from the stand, reusable parts are separately registered in the manifest summary database 33 as used parts inventory information 54, and other parts are registered in the non-reused parts list 52 of the database 33. .

As described above, the parts list 52 that is not reused and the used parts inventory information 54 are stored in the manifest totaling database 33. Therefore, when the manifest totaling database 33 is searched based on the grant number, vehicle type, and parts, If the part is registered in the used parts inventory information 54, information (used parts inventory information) as to which processor has the part in stock can be obtained.

For the automobile manufacturer, the processing of all parts actually removed from the vehicle related to the manifest identified by the grant number from the parts list 52 that is not reused and the used parts inventory information 54 by the processor. It is possible to know the method and disposal method for each disposal company, vehicle type, and parts. As a result, the actual recycling rate of the vehicle that has been disposed of by the disposal company can be obtained for each disposal company, each vehicle type, and each component. That is, a value obtained by multiplying each reusable part by the weight of the total weight of all parts constituting a certain type of vehicle as X, and among all the parts actually removed from one vehicle of the type by the processing company. Is Y, and the total weight of the material recovered from each part is Z, the recycling rate of the vehicle can be obtained by Y / X or (Y + Z) / X.

The total weight X of all parts constituting a certain type of vehicle
Is obtained by multiplying the weight of each part by all the parts constituting the vehicle of the vehicle type obtained by searching the component parts database 32.

In addition, it is possible to know the recycling rate of each part of all parts constituting a certain type of vehicle. Further, it is possible to know a recycling rate for each processing company, that is, a recycling rate when a processing company scraps a vehicle of a certain model.

[Search for Used Parts by User] Next, the procedure for searching for used parts by the user will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 and 9. In the description here, it is assumed that the user has already been given the user ID described above.

When the user searches for a used part desired to be purchased, the user 23 inputs used part search information 63 (see FIG. 9) such as a user ID, a part name, a vehicle type, a color, and a part number from the terminal 23 to the management server 21. It transmits (step S200).

Based on the transmitted used parts search information 63, the management server 21 searches the manifest totaling database 33, and if the corresponding part is registered in the used parts inventory information 54 of the same database 33, Then, the information 98 of the processor having the parts in stock is transmitted to the terminal 23 as a used part search result (step S2).
02).

Based on the information 98 of the processing company obtained in this way, the user can purchase a used part desired from the processing company. [Search of Used Parts by Discharge Company] Next, a procedure of searching for used parts by the discharge company will be described with reference to FIGS.

In this description, it is assumed that the above-mentioned emission company ID has already been assigned to the emission company.
When a discharger requested to use a used part from a user or the like searches for the used part, the discharger ID, the part name,
The used part search information 72 (see FIG. 10) such as the vehicle type, color, and part number is input from the terminal 23 and transmitted to the management server 21 (step S200).

Based on the transmitted used parts search information 72, the management server 21 searches the manifest totaling database 33, and if the corresponding part is registered in the used parts inventory information 54 of the same database 33, Then, the information 98 of the processor having the parts in stock is transmitted to the terminal 23 as a used part search result (step S2).
02).

On the basis of the information 98 of the processing company obtained in this way, the discharge company can purchase the desired used parts from the processing company. Also, when a carrier or a processing company searches for used parts, the search can be performed in the same manner as the above-mentioned user or discharge company.

According to the embodiment configured as described above, the following operation and effect can be obtained. (B) When conducting scrap car disposal, the disposal contractor shall determine the disposal method for parts whose removal method is unknown.
A component database 3 based on vehicle identification information (vehicle type, chassis number, etc.) and part identification information (part name, part number, etc.)
2 to find out. For this reason, the processing company can appropriately perform disposal processing such as removal of parts by referring to the processing method. Thereby, the number of parts removed from the car and reused as "used parts" can be increased. In other words, the number of components that are discarded such as "incineration" or "landfill" can be reduced because the method of removal or the like is not known despite the fact that they can be reused. Therefore, it is possible to properly dispose of the vehicle, and it is possible to improve the recycling rate of the parts and improve the recycling rate.

In this way, by publishing the database of automobile parts (the component parts database 32) designed by the automobile manufacturer, the disposal company can surely carry out the disposal process without mistakes, and can dispose of illegal dumping. Prevention and improvement of the part reuse rate.

(B) By processing the parts processing method based on the vehicle identification information and the parts identification information, the processing company can immediately determine the processing method for the desired parts of the vehicle to be discarded. You can know.

(C) Since the processing company can know the processing method for each part of the car, etc., it is possible to remove the removable parts without mistake and without damaging the parts, and to remove them efficiently. Can be.

(D) The component parts database 32 contains 1
Information on the material of each component constituting the vehicle is also included (see FIG. 4A). As a result, the disposal company can also know the material of each part of the vehicle to be disposed of from the component parts database 32. Appropriate processing can be performed to increase material recovery.

For example, when the parts are made of resin, the recycling method is different between vinyl chloride and propylene. Therefore, by performing a treatment suitable for the material, the recovery rate of the resin material is increased and the recycling rate of the same material is increased. Can be raised. Also, when the parts are made of metal, the refining process after removal is different between iron and aluminum, so by performing the treatment appropriate for the material, the recovery rate of the metal material is increased and the same material is reused. Rate can be increased. Furthermore, even in the case where the material is recovered from the part by using a shredder because it cannot be removed, the material reuse rate can be increased. Therefore, the material reuse rate can be improved, and the recycling rate can be further improved.

(E) Of all the parts removed from the vehicle of a certain vehicle type, the reusable parts are stored in the used parts inventory information 54 of the manifest summary database 33, and the other parts are stored in the parts list 52 which is not reused. Each is stored. For this reason, I am a purchaser of used parts,
The user, the discharge company, and the carrier search the manifest totaling database 33 based on the grant number, the vehicle type, and the part, and find that the part is the used part stock information 54
, It is possible to obtain information (used parts stock information) as to which processor has the part in stock. Also, the processing company itself can obtain second-hand parts stock information of another processing company in the same manner as a user or the like.
Therefore, users, dischargers, carriers, and processors can purchase used parts on the computer network.

(F) When the manifest totaling database 33 is searched based on the identification information of both the car and the parts, as a result of the search, the information of the processing company having the stock of the used parts desired, that is, which processing company has the used parts. Information is obtained. When such information is disclosed to users, dischargers, carriers, processors, and the like on a computer network, a purchaser of a used part can directly deal with the processor and the used part. Therefore, the sales channel of the processing company is expanded, and the reuse of the reusable used parts removed by the disposal processing can be promoted.

(G) For the automobile manufacturer, from the parts list 52 and the used parts inventory information 54 of the manifest summary database 33 which are not reused, all the parts removed from one car by the processing company are determined by the type of processing. In addition to being able to grasp the processing information for each classified part, information such as the weight of all parts and the number of parts per unit is obtained from the component part database 32. For this reason, from the component parts database 32 and the manifest summary database 33, which processor has extracted what and how many parts from which type of vehicle, and further, the type of processing, for example, "reusable parts" , "Parts that can collect materials by processing"
Thus, processing information for each component classified by, for example, is obtained. This makes it possible to grasp the actual recycling rate for each processing company, each vehicle type, and each component.

(H) Since the actual recycling rate can be ascertained by the automobile manufacturer, if the recycling rate can be made higher than that of other companies, the competitiveness of the automobile manufacturer can be enhanced.

(I) Emission companies and automobile manufacturers
By retrieving the manifest completion information 53 from the manifest totaling database 33 by the grant number, it is possible to confirm when and by which carrier and processing company the transportation and the scrapping of the vehicle related to the grant number have been completed. In particular, in the case of the discharge company, when the manifest with the completion mark and the completion date are returned from the carrier and the disposal company, respectively, the grant number described in the manifest and the manifest completion information 53 are issued. It is only necessary to check the number by comparing it with the number, so that it is not necessary to input the completion date and the like, and the manifest can be easily managed.

(V) When the manifest completion information 82 transmitted from the carrier terminal 25 is received by the management server 21, the completion information 82 is transmitted from the management server 21 to the discharge company terminal 24. , The discharge company can immediately know when the transportation of the scrapped vehicle specified by the grant number has been completed.

(G) When the manifest completion information 92 transmitted from the terminal 26 of the discharge company is received by the management server 21, the completion information 92 is transmitted from the management server 21 to the terminals 24 and 25. Therefore, the discharge company and the transporter can immediately know when the scrap car processing specified by the grant number has been completed.

(ヲ) Manifest summary database 33
Include how many days and how many vehicles were disposed of by the waste disposal company, how many vehicles were transported to the disposal company by the carrier, and how many vehicles were disposed of by the disposal company. Contains data such as For this reason, in the automobile manufacturer, the flow and the number of scrapped vehicles can be known from the database 33.

(B) The disposal process of the vehicle related to the manifest is performed from the registration database 34 in which the data relating to the user and each vendor is stored, and the manifest totaling database 33 in which the manifest information 51 and the manifest completion information 53 are stored. The management can be performed in the same flow as the manifest document between the business operator, the carrier, and the discharge business operator, and the management of the manifest becomes easy.
