Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a transport system, a transport method, and a transport device for transporting from a departure place such as a plant to an arrival place such as a construction site by a transport means such as a truck, a mixer truck, a taxi or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in the procurement of parts and materials at a factory or a construction site, parts and materials produced at a plant are transported to the site by trucks or other transportation means. In such parts procurement, what is called just-in-time is required for carrying in parts and the like.

[0003] The current just-in-time system is just-in-time at the entrance of a factory or the like, and does not take into account the temporal fluctuation on the transportation route. It can be said that the vehicle is absorbed by the time buffer function by the early exit of the transportation means such as the expressway, the highway, the SA, the PA, and the waiting on the road around the factory.

[0004] Further, ready-mixed concrete, which is one of the materials in construction production, is a time-dependent product, and JIS specifies that it should be unloaded within 1.5 hours from the start of mixing.

[0005] However, if the transportation time or return time is delayed due to traffic congestion, shipping is delayed, construction delays occur at the concrete pouring site, and cold joints are likely to occur in concrete. Conversely, if a delay occurs in the on-site process, a number of mixer trucks will be on standby around the site, which may cause traffic congestion and noise.

For this reason, conventionally, the travel time of the transport route is grasped by the information collected from communication with the mixer truck by business radio, the information from the traffic information service, and the departure of the mixer truck by the shipping staff of the plant. The cycle time from the start to the return is comprehensively determined and estimated.

[0007]

However, in the past, in order to adjust the fluctuation of travel time, communication was made between the plant and the carrier as described above.
Since the information was not shared between the plant, which is the departure place, and the factory or the construction site, which was the destination, there was a certain limit in the adjustable range.

[0008] That is, the transportation status information of parts and the like is fragmentary information by telephone communication between the plant or the construction site and the plant, and the process adjustment according to the transportation status often depends on the experience of the manager at the destination. Was. In addition, dispatch of trucks and mixer trucks often depends on the experience of the shipping staff on the plant side,
It was difficult to flexibly change the dispatch according to the situation of transportation and the situation of destinations such as factories and construction sites.

In particular, in ready mixed concrete,
Since the time from manufacturing to driving is affected by the transportation time and the waiting time before the driving, the shipping time from the plant must be determined in consideration of the transportation time and the driving process at the site. Heretofore, the decision of the shipping time has often relied on the experience of the plant shipping staff.

[0010] Therefore, in such a product, the time buffer function by the truck cannot be applied. Therefore, it is necessary to construct a just-in-time system including a transportation route that minimizes the time buffer function by the truck.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problem, and collects information on the position of a transportation means such as a truck, a mixer truck, a taxi, a travel time of a transportation route, and an arrival place to collectively. A transport system, transport method, and transport that manages and shares this information among the departure place, transport means, and destination, allowing for appropriate operation instructions in consideration of these, and realizing smooth transport operations. It is intended to provide a device.

In this case, the in-vehicle terminal and the mobile terminal communicate with the central server 1 via the nearest mobile phone base stations 6a to 6d. According to this, since the central server 1 performs centralized management of the system, operation management can be easily performed.

As shown in FIG. 26, the central server 1 and the mixer truck 22 are connected by the above-mentioned packet communication line.
The communication with the personal digital assistant (DMCA) may be used. According to this, an existing communication system can be used, and communication costs other than the basic usage fee are not required.

Further, as shown in FIG. 27, the above-described wireless LAN and D
Instead of the SRC or the like, the in-vehicle terminal and the portable terminal 26 can be directly communicated using Bluetooth, and the delivery note can be directly transmitted from the in-vehicle terminal to the portable terminal 26. According to this, it is possible to omit the private communication equipment.

[0229]

According to the transportation system and the transportation method of the present invention described above, information on the position of the transportation means such as a truck, a mixer truck, a taxi, the travel time of the transportation route, the departure place and the arrival place is collected. By centrally managing the information and sharing the information with the departure place, the transport vehicle, and the arrival place, appropriate operation instructions can be performed in consideration of these points, and smooth transportation operations can be realized.

[0230] Specifically, the following effects can be obtained.

[0231] Since the transport vehicles are allocated instantaneously according to the instantaneous demand (dynamic allocation), the operating rate of the vehicles is improved. In addition, useless traveling on the road for adjusting the arrival time can be avoided.

Since the transportation time constraints are taken into account,
Quality control of articles whose quality depends on the transportation time, such as ready-mixed concrete.

Since the arrival time is specified at the destination,
Elimination of waiting and waiting before arrival, traffic congestion due to occupation of expressways SA and PA by waiting vehicles, parking and stopping on the road,
Noise can be eliminated.

By notifying the exact time required for transportation to the departure place, it is possible to take measures such as delaying the shipping deadline at the place of departure, shorten the delivery date of the transported goods, and reduce the inventory holding rate. Can be done.

Since the server selects the route instead of the vehicle-mounted computer, the vehicle-mounted terminal only needs to have a browser function, and is inexpensive.

The driver does not need to select a route or give an advance notice of arrival time, so he can concentrate on driving, and does not need to operate according to an unreasonable schedule, thereby achieving safe driving. Furthermore, since the rest time can be ensured as planned, the environment can be improved in terms of labor management.
