[0028]
The communication control unit 120 is connected to the seat data management server 20 via a communication line, and can transmit and receive data to and from the host computer 10 at a higher level.
[0029]
Next, a seat designation ticket issuing mode in the above-described seat management system will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG.
[0030]
That is, the CPU 101 of the ticket vending machine 30 determines whether or not the wireless card processing unit 114 has received the wireless card C for issuing a designated seat ticket (ST11). Then, when determining that the wireless card C has been received (ST11, Y), the CPU 101 starts a seat designation ticket issuing mode for issuing a seat designation ticket.
[0031]
Subsequently, the CPU 101 controls the wireless card reader / writer unit 115 to read the issuing condition necessary for issuing the seat designation ticket from the received wireless card C by wireless communication, and to transmit identification information unique to the wireless card C. Read (ST12). At this time, the various issuing conditions set in advance are stored in the received wireless card C, and the use date, train name, departure / arrival section, non-smoking / smoking section, vehicle number, seat number, aisle / window section, past Various types of information such as usage history are stored.
[0032]
Subsequently, the CPU 101 determines whether the received wireless card C is valid (ST13). That is, when the CPU 101 determines that the wireless card C is invalid, such as when the identification information cannot be read from the wireless card C (N in ST13), the CPU 101 displays a message indicating that the wireless card C is invalid on the display unit 104. Then, the received wireless card C is returned (ST15), and the seat reservation ticket issuing mode is ended.
[0033]
On the other hand, when determining that the wireless card C is valid (ST13, Y), the CPU 101 displays a guidance screen for the seat reservation ticket issuing mode on the display unit 104 (ST16). At this time, the CPU 101 displays only the issuance conditions read from the wireless card C on the display unit 104, and blanks the issuance conditions that were not read from the wireless card C (the issuance conditions that were not stored in advance). For example, the example of the guidance screen illustrated in FIG. 5 illustrates a case where the use date, the departure / arrival section, and the non-smoking / smoking section are read from the wireless card C as issuing conditions.
[0034]
Subsequently, the CPU 101 determines whether the minimum predetermined issuance condition required to issue the seat reservation ticket is specified based on the issuance condition read from the wireless card C (ST17). Here, the use date and the departure / arrival section are set as predetermined issuance conditions.
[0035]
In the example shown in FIG. 5, the CPU 101 determines that the predetermined issuance condition is specified (ST17, Y), and determines whether the “confirmation OK” button on the operation panel 103 is pressed (ST18). Here, as shown in FIG. 5, a "confirmation OK" button B1 is displayed on the display unit 104 of the operation panel 103 with a built-in touch panel. That is, the CPU 101 displays the “confirmation OK” button B1 on the display unit 104 only when determining that the predetermined issuance condition is designated.
[0036]
Subsequently, when the CPU 101 detects that the “OK” button B1 has been pressed (Y in ST18), the CPU 101 searches for a vacant seat corresponding to the specified issuing condition (ST19). That is, the CPU 101 controls the communication control unit 120 to transmit the specified issuing condition to the host computer 10. The CPU 11 of the host computer 10 refers to the seat management data stored in the memory unit 12 based on the issuance conditions transmitted from the CPU 101 of the ticket vending machine 30 and controls the communication control unit 13 to determine whether there is a corresponding vacant seat. The corresponding information is transmitted to the ticket vending machine 30.
[0037]
Subsequently, when the CPU 101 receives the information corresponding to the vacant seat from the host computer 10 via the communication control unit 120 (ST20, Y), the CPU 101 determines the issuing condition corresponding to the vacant seat received on the display unit 104. It is displayed (ST21). Then, CPU 101 determines whether or not the “confirmation OK” button on operation panel 103 has been pressed (ST22). Here, as shown in FIG. 6, a "confirmation OK" button B1 is displayed on the display unit 104 of the operation panel 103 with a built-in touch panel.
[0038]
Subsequently, when the CPU 101 detects that the “confirmation OK” button B1 has been pressed (Y in ST22), the CPU 101 determines the seat issuance conditions and controls the communication control unit 120 to release the vacant seat corresponding to the host computer 10. The released information corresponding to the fact that it has been released is transmitted (ST23). The CPU 11 of the host computer 10 refers to the seat management data stored in the memory unit 12 based on the released information transmitted from the CPU 101 of the ticket vending machine 30, and changes the corresponding vacant seat to released.
[0039]
Subsequently, the CPU 101 controls the issuing unit 116 to issue a seat designation ticket corresponding to a vacant seat based on the issuance condition determined (ST24). That is, the CPU 101 controls the magnetic head unit 117 to magnetically record the seat issuance condition corresponding to the vacant seat on the magnetic ticket, and also controls the printer unit 118 to print the seat number and the like on the ticket, and Issue a designated ticket.
[0040]
Subsequently, the CPU 101 stores the fee information of the designated seat ticket issued in association with the identification information read from the wireless card C in the memory unit 102 (ST25), and ends the designated seat ticket issuing mode.
[0041]
On the other hand, if the CPU 101 determines in step ST17 that the predetermined issuance condition is not specified (N in ST17), the CPU 101 accepts additional input of the issuance condition via the operation panel 103 (ST31). If the predetermined issuance condition is not specified in this way, the display unit 104 does not display the “OK” button.
[0042]
That is, the CPU 101 receives an additional input of a shortage of a predetermined condition and also receives an additional input of another issue condition. For example, if the departure / arrival section is not specified among the predetermined issuance conditions, additional input of the departure / arrival section via the operation panel 103 is received, and additional input is also received for issuance conditions other than the predetermined issuance condition.
[0043]
Further, in step ST18, when the CPU 101 does not detect the pressing of the "confirmation OK" button B1 (ST18, N), the CPU 101 receives an input for changing the issuing condition via the operation panel 103 (ST31). That is, the CPU 101 receives a change input for changing at least a part of the issuance conditions stored in the wireless card C in advance and also receives a change input for changing at least a part of the issuance conditions additionally input.
[0044]
As described above, in step ST31, when the addition of the issuance condition and the change of the issuance condition are received, the CPU 101 performs steps ST18 to ST22, and when it is detected that the “confirmation OK” button B1 is pressed (ST22, Y), as shown in FIG. 7, an instruction is received as to whether or not the issuance conditions input and changed have been written into the wireless card C received by the wireless card processing unit 114 (ST41).
[0045]
Then, when receiving an instruction not to write to the wireless card C (ST41, N), the CPU 101 performs step ST23 and outputs released information corresponding to the fact that the vacant seat corresponding to the host computer 10 has been released. Send.
[0046]
When receiving an instruction to write to the wireless card C (Y in ST41), the CPU 101 controls the wireless card reader / writer unit 115 to receive a write instruction to the received wireless card C by wireless communication. The issuing condition is written (ST42).
[0047]
Then, when the issuance condition cannot be written to the wireless card C (ST43, N), the CPU 101 performs step ST14 and displays a message indicating that a write error has occurred. When the writing of the issuance condition to the wireless card C is completed (Y in ST43), the CPU 101 performs step ST23, and the released information corresponding to the fact that the vacant seat corresponding to the host computer 10 has been released. Send
[0048]
In step ST20, when the CPU 101 receives the information corresponding to the absence of the corresponding vacant seat from the host computer 10 via the communication control unit 120 (ST20, N), the operation panel 103 as shown in FIG. (ST51). That is, the CPU 101 receives a change input for changing at least a part of the issuance conditions specified in the above-described steps, and also receives a change input for changing at least a part of the additionally input issuance conditions.
[0049]
Subsequently, the CPU 101 determines whether or not the “confirmation OK” button on the operation panel 103 has been pressed (ST52). When the CPU 101 detects that the "OK" button has been pressed (Y in ST52), the process returns to step ST19, and searches for a vacant seat corresponding to the specified issuing condition. If the CPU 101 does not detect the press of the “OK” button (ST52, N), the CPU 101 determines whether the “cancel” button of the operation panel 103 has been pressed (ST53).
[0050]
When the CPU 101 detects that the “cancel” button has been pressed (Y in ST53), it performs step ST14 and displays a message indicating that a writing error has occurred. Further, when the CPU 101 does not detect the pressing of the “cancel” button (N in ST53), the process returns to step ST51, and receives an input for changing the issuing condition via the operation panel 103.
[0051]
As described above, according to the seat reservation ticket issuance mode, by using a card medium having the issuance conditions necessary for issuing the seat reservation ticket, at least the input operation of the issuance conditions read from the card medium is omitted. can do. Therefore, the seat reservation ticket can be issued efficiently, and the time required until the seat reservation ticket is issued can be shortened.
[0052]
Further, according to the seat reservation ticket issuing mode, it is possible to receive a change input for changing at least a part of the issuing conditions stored in the card medium in advance, and to issue a change input other than the issuing conditions stored in the card medium in advance. Can be received.
[0053]
For this reason, it is not necessary to specify the minimum required issuance information required for issuing the seat reservation ticket in the card medium in advance in a complete state, and when vacant seats cannot be secured under the issuance conditions stored initially. Can change the issuing conditions and search for a vacant seat again. This makes it possible to efficiently issue the seat reservation ticket and improve the serviceability for the user.
[0054]
Further, according to the seat reservation ticket issuing mode, when a change input and an additional input of the issuing condition are received, these issuing conditions can be selectively written in the wireless card C.
[0055]
Therefore, by instructing the user to write only the necessary issuance conditions, the original issuance conditions that could not secure vacant seats in the current seat reservation ticket issuing mode are not necessarily rewritten, and Issuance conditions newly added in the ticket issuing mode can be additionally written or not written.
[0056]
As a result, it is possible to use the current issuance conditions in the next seat reservation ticket issuance mode, and to use the original issuance conditions, thereby improving the serviceability for the user. Become.
[0057]
Further, according to the seat reservation ticket issuance mode, a post-pay card medium is employed as a payment method when a seat reservation ticket is issued corresponding to the searched vacant seat. That is, after temporarily storing the charge information of the designated seat ticket issued in association with the identification information read from the card medium in the memory unit, the payment server manages the charge information for each identification information of the card medium. Thus, it is possible to collectively pay the usage amount for a certain period. For this reason, cash for the time being becomes unnecessary, and the serviceability for the user can be improved.
[0058]
Further, according to the seat reservation ticket issuing mode, in the seat management data for managing vacant seats, categories of “vacant seat”, “temporary reservation”, and “released” are assigned to each seat. When a search is received from the ticket vending machine for a seat having the category of “vacant seat”, information corresponding to “vacant seat available” is transmitted to the ticket vending machine, and the category of the seat is changed from “vacant seat” to “temporary reservation”. Change to Then, when the information corresponding to the sale has been received from the ticket vending machine, the category of the seat is changed from "temporary reservation" to "released". Further, when information corresponding to cancellation is received from the ticket vending machine side or when an error occurs in writing to the card medium, the category of the seat is changed from “temporary reservation” to “vacant seat”. In this way, by managing the category of each seat, an empty seat can be efficiently searched.
[0059]
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made at the stage of implementation without departing from the scope of the invention. In addition, the embodiments may be implemented in appropriate combinations as much as possible, and in that case, the effect of the combination is obtained.
[0060]
