Description

  The present invention relates to a train schedule creation support apparatus that supports creation of a train schedule, and more particularly to a train schedule creation support apparatus that can quickly create an appropriate train schedule.

  In recent years, railways have been used as a means of transportation and transportation, and are closely related to the progress of social life. For this reason, the social importance in a railroad is increasing every day, and it is necessary to operate the train efficiently.

  Here, the operation status of trains on the railway follows the train schedule.

  For this reason, in order to efficiently operate the train, it is necessary to appropriately modify the schedule. The train diagram is a train line representing train operation with the horizontal axis as the time axis and the vertical axis as the station name.

  Normally, when creating this train diagram, the number of trains to be operated, the time zone, the section, the destination, the train type, and the like are determined and created based on the past data on the number of passengers.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method of determining the number of trains by taking the actual value of the number of passengers, the estimated value of the number of passengers, etc. into the diagram creation. In this method, the number of trains is determined by taking the number of passengers from the OD table creation system into a diagram creation device.

  However, a train diagram is usually created by a train diagram creator having expertise based on a huge amount of performance data. For this reason, it takes a lot of labor to create a train schedule, and it is not always easy to implement a schedule revision.

  For example, even if there is a guideline for the number of operating trains in each time zone, the number of operating trains is large in so-called working hours, and the boarding efficiency varies greatly depending on the train operation.

  As a result, there may be situations where it is not possible to quickly respond to appropriate schedule revisions in line with social needs.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a train diagram creation support device that can quickly create an appropriate train diagram.

  In order to achieve the above object, the train diagram creation support device according to the present invention classifies and stores the estimated number of passengers in each section for each preset time zone, Section selection means for selecting, as a target section, a section in which the number of trains to be operated, types, and operating time zones are set, and setting means for setting the number, types, and operating time zones of the trains operating in the target sections Extracting means for extracting the predicted number of passengers in the target section from the storage means, the predicted number of passengers extracted by the extracting means, the number of trains set by the setting means, the type, and the operating time zone Based on the calculation means for calculating the number of passengers in the target section, which is the number of passengers operating in the target section, and the train diagram display data representing the train lines corresponding to the number of passengers in the target section And a generating means for generating data.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the train schedule creation assistance apparatus which can create an appropriate train schedule rapidly can be provided.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

<First Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a configuration of a train diagram creation support apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

  The train diagram creation support device 20 generates train diagram display data based on data input from the input device 10 in order to support creation of a train diagram of a train that operates between sections of a railway station. The train schedule is created and displayed on the display device 30.

  Here, the input device 10 can input data necessary for the train diagram creation support device 20 when creating a train diagram, and corresponds to a mouse, a keyboard, and the like.

  Specifically, the input device 10 can select a section in which the number, type, and operating time zone of the train to be operated among the sections is set as the “target section”. Moreover, the number of trains which operate the selected object area, a classification, and the time slot | zone to operate can be set. Furthermore, the predicted number of passengers in each section can be stored in the storage unit 21.

  The train diagram creation device 20 includes a storage unit 21, a section selection unit 22, an extraction unit 23, a setting unit 24, a calculation unit 25, a creation unit 26, and a display processing unit 27.

  The train diagram creation support device 20 can be realized with a hardware configuration, or can be realized as a combination of a hardware configuration and a software configuration. In the latter case, each function of the train diagram creation device 20 is realized by installing a program obtained in advance from a computer-readable storage medium or network in the software configuration.

  The storage unit 21 classifies and stores the predicted number of passengers in each section for each time zone set by the input device 10. That is, it stores the predicted number of passengers classified into items (eg, time, station, destination, train type, etc.) that specify a train such as time zone, section, destination, and train type.

  In addition, as an item to specify the train, the time zone is set at 8 o'clock, 9 o'clock ... and so on every other hour, the section is from station A to station B, station B to station C,・ ・ Sections set for each station, such as ordinary trains (normal 81, normal 85, normal 95 ...), limited express trains (limited express 83, limited 93 ...) ... The set train type and the like are listed.

  In addition, a deriving unit (not shown) can derive the predicted number of passengers based on the number of passengers and the number of passengers getting off at each station.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the number of passengers who get on a regular train at A station and get off at B station (FIG. 2 (A)), and get on a regular train at A and B stations and get off at C station. It is assumed that the number of passengers (Fig. 2 (B)) and the number of passengers (Fig. 2 (C)) who get on a regular train at A station, B station, and C station and get off at D station are input by the input device 10. .

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 3, the predicted number of passengers in the ordinary train at stations A to B, B to C, and C to D is derived and stored as 1100, 1700, and 2000, respectively. It will be stored in the unit 21.

  The section selection unit 22 selects a section in which the number of trains to be operated, the type, and the operating time zone are set as target sections from all sections based on input data of the input device 10. Then, the information of the selected target section is sent to the extraction unit 23.

  The extraction unit 23 extracts data on the predicted number of passengers in the target section from the storage unit 21. In addition, the extracted predicted passenger number data is sent to the calculation unit 25.

  The setting unit 24 sets the number, type, and operating time zone of the train that operates in the target section based on the input data of the input device 10. Then, the set information is sent to the calculation unit 25.

  The calculation unit 25 is the number of passengers of the train that operates the target section based on the predicted number of passengers extracted by the extraction unit 23 and the number, type, and operating time zone of the train set by the setting 24. The number of passengers in the target section is calculated.

  Here, a method of calculating the number of passengers in the target section will be described taking the ordinary train “ordinary 85” in FIG. 4 as an example.

  When the data shown in FIGS. 4 (A) to (C) is stored in the storage unit 21, the number of passengers between A station and B station of 85 is usually boarding at A station and 8 o'clock at B station. The number of people who got off the platform divided by the number of target trains that arrived at B station at 8 o'clock (ordinary 81, ordinary 85), boarded at A station, and got off at C station at 9 o'clock Number of passengers divided by the number of target trains that arrived at C station at 9 o'clock (ordinary 85, normal 91) and boarded at A station and got off at D station at 9 o'clock The total number of trains divided by the number of target trains arriving at D station (ordinary 85, ordinary 91). Here, (500/2) + (200/2) + (400/2) = 550.

  In addition, the number of passengers between station B and station C, which is usually 85, is the number of trains that arrived at station A at station A or station B and arrived at station C at 9 o'clock. The number of trains arriving at D station at 9 o'clock by the number of people divided by 85 (ordinary 2) and boarding at station A or B and getting off at 9 o'clock It is the number of people divided by the number of people divided by 85, ordinary 91). Here, ((200 + 400) / 2) + ((400 + 700) / 2) = 850.

  In addition, the number of passengers between C station and D station of 85 is the subject who got on D station at 9 o'clock and arrived at D station at 9 o'clock when boarding at A station, B station or C station The number of people divided by the number of trains (ordinary 85 and ordinary 91). Here, ((400 + 700 + 900) / 2) = 1000.

  The number of passengers in the target section can be obtained by the calculation method exemplified above (FIG. 4D).

  In addition, since the number of passengers is divided equally (1: 1) by the number of target trains here, it is divided by 2, but based on the type of the target train, it is set to be distributed as 3: 2. Is also possible.

  Furthermore, the calculation unit 25 calculates “target section boarding rate” that is a boarding rate of the target section based on the number of passengers in the target section and the type of train.

  Specifically, from the number of passengers in each section of each train (Fig. 5 (A)) and the number of passengers in each train (value determined by the type of organization; Figs. 5 (B), (C)), The boarding rate in each section of each train is calculated.

  That is, the predicted boarding rate of each train can be obtained by dividing the calculated predicted number of passengers for each train by the number of seats determined for each train type (FIG. 5D).

  The creation unit 26 creates train diagram display data in which train lines corresponding to the number of passengers in the target section or the target section boarding rate calculated by the calculation unit 25 are represented. Here, as shown in FIG. 6, display data of a train diagram in which train lines corresponding to the target section boarding rate are represented is created.

  In addition, the display data of a train diagram is created so that train stripes having different colors, line types (solid line, broken line, one-dot chain line, etc.), and thicknesses are represented according to the target section boarding rate. In FIG. 6E, when the target section boarding rate exceeds a preset value, it is indicated by a thick line, and when the target section boarding rate is lower than a preset value, it is indicated by a dotted line. When the section boarding rate exceeds a preset value, it is shown by a red line, when the target section boarding rate is lower than a preset value, it is shown by a blue line, and in a normal case, it is shown by a black line. May be.

  As described above, the creating unit 26 creates a train diagram in which train lines having different colors, different line types, and different thicknesses are represented according to the target section boarding rate, and visually changes according to the boarding rate. Create display data for train diagrams displayed on train lines.

  The display processing unit 27 causes the display device 30 to display the train diagram created by the creation unit 26 as the latest train diagram each time the calculation unit 25 calculates. That is, when there is a change such as creation, correction, or deletion of a train at the time of creating the train diagram, the train diagram whose boarding rate is recalculated is displayed on the display device 30.

  The display device 30 displays the train schedule created by the creation unit 26. A display in a normal workstation or the like can be used.

(Operation of train diagram creation support device 20)
Next, operation | movement of the train schedule creation assistance apparatus 20 which concerns on this embodiment is demonstrated using the flowchart of FIG.

  First, record data of the number of passengers and the number of people getting off at each station is input by the input device 10 and stored in the storage unit 21 (S1). At this time, automatic ticket gate data, OD table data, issuance data of an express ticket issuing system, manual input data by a conductor, or the like can also be used as performance data.

  Subsequently, in the storage unit 21, the predicted number of passengers in each section is derived by the deriving unit from the number of passengers and the number of passengers getting off at each station (S2). The predicted number of passengers in each section is classified and stored for each time zone in the storage unit 21.

  Next, when the train diagram creator operates the input device 10, a target section for creating a train diagram is selected and set in the section selection unit 22 (S3).

  Further, when the train diagram creator operates the input device 10, the number, type, and operating time zone of the train that operates the selected target section are set in the setting unit 24 (S4).

  Subsequently, when the target section is set in the section selection unit 22, the number of passengers in the target section is extracted from the storage unit 21 to the extraction unit 23 (S5).

  Subsequently, based on the number of passengers in the target section extracted by the extraction unit 23 and the number, type, and operating time zone of the train set by the setting unit 24, the target section boarding ratio of the train that operates the target section is determined. The calculation unit 25 calculates (S6).

  Next, the train part 26 creates train diagram data representing train lines corresponding to the number of passengers in the target section (S7). At this time, the train schedule to be created is created such that train stripes having different colors, line types (solid line, broken line, one-dot chain line, etc.) and thickness are represented according to the target section boarding rate.

  Each time the calculation by the calculation unit 25 is performed, the display data of the train diagram created by the creation unit 26 is displayed on the display device 30 as the latest train diagram by the display processing unit 27 (S8).

  As described above, the train schedule creation support device 20 according to the present embodiment includes the storage unit 21 that stores the predicted number of passengers in each section for each preset time zone, and among the sections, Section selection unit 22 that selects a section in which the number, type, and operation time zone of the train to be operated are set as a target section, and a setting unit that sets the number, type, and time zone of the train that operates the target section. 24, an extraction unit 23 for extracting the predicted number of passengers in the target section from the storage unit 21, a predicted number of passengers extracted by the extraction unit 23, the number of trains set by the setting unit 24, the type, and the operating time Based on the belt, the calculation unit 25 for calculating the number of passengers in the target section that is the number of passengers in the target section and the train diagram display data in which the train lines corresponding to the number of passengers in the target section are represented are created. The configuration provided with the formation unit 26 allows the train diagram creator to create a train diagram while visually confirming the train lines that change according to the number of passengers. Can be created.

  Moreover, since the preparation part 26 produces the display data of the train diagram in which the train line according to the target section boarding rate is represented, the train diagram creator can create the train diagram while visually confirming the train line. That is, when creating a train diagram, it assists so that a train diagram can be created in consideration of the boarding rate.

  In addition, since the display processing unit 27 updates the display data of the train diagram every time the calculation unit 25 calculates, the display device 30 when there is a change such as creation, correction, or deletion of a train during the creation of the train diagram It is possible to display the display data of the train diagram in which the boarding rate is recalculated. For this reason, the train diagram creator can always create a train diagram while paying attention to the boarding rate.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8 (A), in the section from station B to station D, 85 train lines are normally displayed as bold lines, so it is understood that the boarding rate is high. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8 (B), if ordinary 87 is set to operate in the section from station B to station D, a portion of the ordinary 85 passengers is distributed to ordinary 85, so train streaks It becomes a line of normal thickness. In this way, the train diagram creator can create a train diagram in consideration of the boarding rate.

<Second Embodiment>
FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram showing a configuration of a train diagram creation support device 20T according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as the already demonstrated part, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted. In the following embodiments, the same description is omitted.

  The second embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. From the viewpoint of determining the superiority or inferiority of a train diagram, the train diagram creation support device 20T includes a comparison unit 28 and a train diagram creation support device 20 described above. An error output unit 29 is further provided.

  In the present embodiment, after the number of trains that operate in the target section, the type, and the time zone in which the train operates are set, the weighting data for each of the type, time zone, and target section of the train is input to the input device 10. Is stored in the storage unit 21.

  In the present embodiment, an upper limit value and a lower limit value of the reference boarding rate, which are reference values for the boarding rate, are input to the comparison unit 28 via the input device 10. Not only the upper limit value and lower limit value of the reference boarding rate but also the value of the sum of the reference boarding rates can be input.

  When weighting data is input from the input device 10, the calculation unit 25 calculates a weighted target section boarding rate.

  Specifically, the occupancy rate for the target section is calculated according to the type of train, such as 1 for a normal train and 2 for an express train. In addition, the boarding ratio of the target section weighted according to the time zone, such as 1 time for 8 o'clock and 1.1 times for 9 o'clock, is calculated. Furthermore, the target section boarding ratio weighted according to the target section, such as 1 time between the A station and the B station and 1.2 times between the B station and the C station, is calculated.

  When receiving the error signal from the error output unit 29 described later, the creating unit 26 creates error data for displaying that the train diagram is not appropriate together with the train diagram data. The train diagram data includes data for displaying train lines according to the target section boarding rate, and changes the attributes (color, line type, etc.) of train lines with errors.

  Moreover, if the boarding rate calculated by the calculation unit 25 is outside the preset reference range, the error data is displayed together with the train schedule.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10, when the target section boarding rate exceeds 200%, display data for displaying items of train number, starting station, end station, and boarding rate is created. Needless to say, the error data is not limited to the display data described above. Further, the display data is not limited, and audio data such as an alarm may be used.

  The comparison unit 28 compares the target section boarding rate of each train with the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the reference boarding rate input in advance by the input device 10. At this time, the sum of the target section boarding rates for each train set in the target section may be compared with a preset reference value. The reference value in this case is the product of the value set for each type of train and the number of each train set for the target section.

  Further, as a result of the comparison, the comparison unit 28 determines whether or not the target section boarding rate is within the range of the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the reference boarding rate, and if not, the error output unit 29 To send.

  The error output unit 29 outputs an error signal to the creation unit 26 when the target section boarding rate is not within the range of the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the reference boarding rate as a result of the comparison by the comparison unit 28.

(Operation of train diagram creation support device 20T)
Next, the operation of the train diagram creation support device 20T according to this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  First, a target section is selected by the input device 10, and the number, type, and operating time zone of the train that operates the selected target section are set in the setting unit 24 (T1). At the same time, data on the upper limit value and lower limit value of the reference boarding rate are input.

  Subsequently, weighting data is input by operating the input device 10 for each of the train type, time zone, and target section (T2 to T4).

  Next, the target section boarding rate is calculated by the calculation unit 25 (T5).

  Subsequently, the target section boarding rate and the upper limit value and lower limit value of the reference boarding rate are respectively compared by the comparison unit 28 (T6). At this time, if the target section boarding ratio does not become a value within the reference range of the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the reference boarding ratio, the error output unit 29 outputs an error signal to the creating unit 26 (T6-No). On the other hand, if it is within the reference range, no error signal is output (T6-Yes).

  If an error signal is output, the creation unit 26 creates error data with an abnormal boarding rate (T7).

  Subsequently, if there is error data indicating a boarding rate abnormality, train schedule data is created by the creation unit 26 together with the error data (T8). If there is no error data indicating an abnormal boarding rate, only the data for the train schedule is created by the creation unit 26.

  Then, the train diagram data created by the creation unit 26 is displayed on the display device 30 as the latest train diagram by the display processing unit 27 (T9).

  As described above, the train diagram creation support device 20T according to the present embodiment compares the target section boarding rate with the upper limit value and lower limit value of the preset reference boarding rate, and the comparison unit 28, respectively. As a result, when the target section occupancy is not within the range of the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the reference occupancy rate, the train diagram creator is created by a configuration further including an error output unit 29 that outputs an error signal. Since it is possible to create a train diagram while visually confirming whether or not the boarding rate of the train schedule is within the range of the reference standard boarding rate, it is possible to quickly create an appropriate train diagram.

  In addition, the train schedule creation support device 20T sets weighting data for each of the train type, the time zone, and the target section after the number, type, and operating time zone of the train operating the target section are set by the input device 10. The calculating unit 25 calculates the weighted target section boarding rate, and the comparing unit 28 is preset with the sum of the target section boarding rates calculated by weighting for each train. Since it has a function to compare with the reference value, the train diagram creator can freely set weights and reference values, and can create a train diagram that enables efficient train operation. .

  In other words, the train diagram creation support device 20T according to the present embodiment increases the degree of freedom in train diagram creation work, so that the train diagram creator can be supported as a result, and train schedules can be created quickly. Become.

<Third Embodiment>
The train diagram creation support device 20U according to the third embodiment of the present invention is a modification of the second embodiment, and when an error signal is output, by displaying a train that operates in the vicinity of the target section. Assist in creating efficient train diagrams.

  When the calculation unit 25 receives an error signal from the error output unit 29 described later, the calculation unit 25 is a train that operates in a section outside the target section, and stops a passing train that passes through the target section at a station in the target section. As a result, the boarding rate of the target section of each train is calculated. Then, the calculated target section boarding rate data is sent to the creation unit 26.

  When the creation section 26 receives the target section boarding ratio when the passing train is stopped from the calculation section 25, the creation section 26 creates train diagram data based on the target section boarding ratio.

  The error output unit 29 outputs an error signal to the calculation unit 25 when the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding rate as a result of the comparison by the comparing unit 28.

  That is, the error output unit 29 repeats the same process for some trains, and causes the creation unit 26 to create display data when no error occurs.

  Specifically, if only one train is stopped, an error is generated. If two trains are stopped, no error occurs, and display data of the state where two trains are stopped is generated. Thereby, even if the user does not change one by one, the error-free state is automatically displayed, so that convenience is improved. The destination change is performed in the same way.

(Operation of train diagram creation support device 20U)
Next, the operation of the train diagram creation support apparatus 20U according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 12 (A), it is assumed that a train Tr1 is operating from X4 station to X8 station, which are target sections, in a time zone t1 to t2. In addition, the train Tr1 is assumed that the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding rate. Here, when the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding rate, the train stripes are displayed thick.

  In this case, the calculation unit 25 receives the error signal from the error output unit 29, and includes the passing train Tr2 ′ that has been stopped assuming that the passing train Tr2 passing through the target section is stopped at the X6 station in the target section. Thus, the occupancy rates of the target sections of the ordinary trains Tr1 and Tr2 ′ are calculated.

  Accordingly, when the passing train Tr2 'passes, a part of the number of passengers on the train Tr1 is distributed to the passing train Tr2', so that the boarding ratio of the target section of the train Tr1 takes a value within the reference range.

  Then, as illustrated in FIG. 12B, the creation unit 26 creates a train diagram that extracts the passing train Tr <b> 2 ′ that satisfies the reference boarding rate range.

  As described above, in the train schedule creation support device 20U according to the present embodiment, the calculation unit 25 is outside the target section when the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding ratio as a result of the comparison by the comparison unit 28. Suppose that the train that runs through the section (X2 station to X9 station) and passes through the target section (X4 station to X8 station) stops at the X6 station in the target section. Further, the creation unit 26 has a function of creating train diagram display data based on the target section boarding rate when the passing train Tr2 is stopped. Train schedules can be quickly created so that is within the reference value.

<Fourth Embodiment>
The train diagram creation support device 20V according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention is a modification of the second embodiment, and when an error signal is output, by displaying a train that operates in the vicinity of the target section. Assist in creating efficient train diagrams.

  When the calculation unit 25 receives an error signal from the error output unit 29, the calculation unit 25 is a train that operates in a section outside the target section, and the stop train whose end station is the starting station of the target section is not terminated at the end station. Assuming that the target section is operated, the target section boarding rate is calculated. Then, the calculated target section boarding rate data is sent to the creation unit 26.

  When receiving the target section boarding rate when the stopped train is operated from the calculating unit 25, the creating unit 26 creates train diagram data based on the target section boarding rate.

  The error output unit 29 outputs an error signal to the calculation unit 25 when the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding rate as a result of the comparison by the comparing unit 28.

(Operation of train schedule creation support device 20V)
Next, the operation of the train diagram creation support device 20V according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 13 (A), it is assumed that a train Tr1 is operating from X4 station to X8 station, which are target sections, in time zones t1 to t2. In addition, the train Tr1 is assumed that the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding rate. Here, when the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding rate, the train stripes are displayed thick.

  In this case, the calculation unit 25 receives the error signal from the error output unit 29, and operates the target section (X4 station to X8 station) without stopping the stop train Tr3 that ends at the X4 station. The target section boarding rate is calculated including the stopped train Tr3 ′ that has been operated. The stop train Tr3 'runs to the next turn-back station X9.

  As a result, when the passing train Tr3 ′ passes through the target section from the X4 station to the X8 station, a part of the number of passengers on the train Tr1 is distributed to the passing train Tr3 ′, so the target section boarding ratio of the train Tr1 is within the reference range. Will take on the value in.

  Then, as illustrated in FIG. 13B, the creation unit 26 creates a train diagram that extracts the passing train Tr <b> 3 ′ that satisfies the reference boarding rate range.

  As described above, in the train schedule creation support device 20V according to the present embodiment, the calculation unit 25 is outside the target section when the target section boarding rate exceeds the upper limit value of the reference boarding ratio as a result of the comparison by the comparison unit 28. Trains that run in the section (X2 station to X4 station), and the stop train Tr3 that ends at the first station (X4 station) of the target section (X4 station to X8 station) ends at the X4 station The target section boarding rate is further calculated assuming that the target section (X4 station to X8 station) is operated without making it, and the creation unit 26 trains based on the target section boarding ratio when the stop train Tr3 is operated. Since it has a function of creating display data of a diagram, it is possible for a train diagram creator to promptly create a train diagram in which the boarding rate falls within a reference value.

  In addition, when supplementing about each said embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, since a normal train diagram is expressed by a very many line (train streaks), in order to confirm the created train diagram, very labor is required. Cost. Therefore, the train diagram creation support device that the diagram creator can visually recognize while creating the train diagram is very useful for the train diagram creator.

  Note that the method described in the above embodiment includes a magnetic disk (floppy (registered trademark) disk, hard disk, etc.), an optical disk (CD-ROM, DVD, etc.), a magneto-optical disk (MO) as programs that can be executed by a computer. ), And can be distributed in a storage medium such as a semiconductor memory.

  In addition, as long as the storage medium can store a program and can be read by a computer, the storage format may be any form.
