Here, the bike lock mechanism is a mechanism that is provided in each bike lock device 13 and locks the motorcycle 3 parked in the parking space. The motorcycle 3 is locked when the motorcycle 3 is locked, and the motorcycle 3 is locked. If not, it will be unlocked.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the bicycle parking / renting / return management data table T3 is classified according to the device numbers of the plurality of bicycle locking devices 14 (the highest digit is “3”), and the front wheel detection unit 55 Detected / non-detected state, lock mechanism 54 locked / unlocked, locked time indicating the date and time when the bicycle 4 was locked, input by the user at the time of parking (at the start of parking or after the start of parking) The secret code number and the rental time indicating the date and time when the rental of the bicycle 4 is started are stored. Thereby, the code number input by the user when the bicycle 4 is parked is stored in the data table T3 in association with the device number input by the user at the time of parking. Here, the front wheel detector 55 is a sensor that is provided in each bicycle lock device 14 and detects whether or not the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is inserted into the insertion port 14A of the bicycle lock device 14, and the bicycle 4 is inserted into the insertion port 14A. When the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is inserted, the detection state (ON) is set, and when the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is not inserted into the insertion port 14A, the detection state (OFF) is set. The lock mechanism 54 is a mechanism that is provided in each bicycle lock device 14 and locks the front wheel of the bicycle 4 inserted into the insertion port 14A. When the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is locked, the lock mechanism 54 is locked (LOCK). When the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is not locked, the unlocked state (UN-LOCK) is established.

  In the data table T3, the classification means that each bicycle locking device 14 is a bicycle locking device 14 (parking) for locking the bicycle parking bicycle 4A or a bicycle locking device 14 (rental) for locking the rental bicycle 4B. ). In this embodiment, the division of each bicycle lock device 14 is set in advance, and information on the division is stored in the data table T3 in advance. For example, when the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device numbers 301 to 306 are assigned is preliminarily classified as the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A, these device numbers are stored in the data table T3. “Parking” is stored as a classification corresponding to 301 to 306. Further, when the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device numbers 307 to 312 are assigned is preliminarily classified as the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the rental bicycle 4B, these device numbers 307 are stored in the data table T3. In addition, “rental” is stored as a classification corresponding to the reference numeral 312.

  As described above, in the vehicle management system 1, the password is stored and managed in groups of the data tables T1, T2, and T3 corresponding to the flap device 12, the bicycle lock device 13, and the bicycle lock device 14, respectively. Yes.

(Overview of system operation)
The vehicle management system 1 performs a parking management process for the bicycle 4A. The bicycle parking management process of the bicycle bicycle 4A includes the bicycle parking processing performed when the bicycle bicycle 4A is parked (when entering, etc.) and the parking bicycle bicycle 4A parked at the end of the bicycle parking (when leaving). There is a ring end process. In the parking management process, a user who parks the bicycle 4A is required to enter a password when parking (starting parking or after starting parking), and parking the bicycle. When a personal identification number is entered, the personal identification number is again input at the end of parking, and the bicycle bicycle 4A is unlocked only when the personal identification numbers coincide with each other at the end of parking. Unless the security code entered at the time of parking matches the security code entered at the end of parking, the bicycle cannot be unlocked. Therefore, others who do not know the security code may use the bicycle without permission. The bicycle 4A cannot be taken out and the bicycle bicycle 4A is stolen. However, since the personal identification number may be forgotten, the input of the personal identification number during parking is optional by the user as will be described later.

  Further, the vehicle management system 1 performs a rental / return management process for the rental bicycle 4B. The rental bicycle 4B rental / return management processing includes a rental processing performed when the rental bicycle 4B is lent and a return processing performed when the rental bicycle 4B is returned. In the lending / return management process, the user who rents the rental bicycle 4B is required to enter the password at the time of lending, and again to enter the password at the time of return, and when these passwords match each other at the time of return. As long as the rental bicycle 4B is returned, the return of the deposit, which will be described later, and the locking of the rental bicycle 4B are performed. Unless the personal identification number entered at the time of rental matches the personal identification number entered at the time of return, the rental bicycle 4B is not locked, so a person other than the user can use a bicycle other than the rental bicycle 4B. The bicycle lock device 14 for locking is erroneously locked, and as a result, the bicycle 4 that is not the rental bicycle 4B can be prevented from being mixed in the rental bicycle 4B.

  Furthermore, the vehicle management system 1 performs parking management processing for the automobile 2 and the motorcycle 3. The parking management process for the automobile 2 and the motorcycle 3 is substantially the same as the parking management process for the bicycle 4A.

  Thus, the bicycle parking process and parking end process of the bicycle bicycle 4A, and the rental process and return process of the rental bicycle 4B are respectively performed in terms of the operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 by the user and the parking fee settlement machine 11 This will be described in detail from the viewpoint of processing operation.

(Bicycle treatment)
FIG. 6 shows the operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 by the user during parking. FIG. 11 shows the processing operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 in the bicycle parking management process.

  First, the operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 by the user at the time of parking will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 (1) shows a standby screen of the parking fee settlement machine 11. Normally, this standby screen is always displayed on the screen of the display 31 when no operation is performed. The current date and time are displayed in a frame line in the screen, and a message for guiding the user to input the device number is displayed as a guidance display at the bottom of the screen.

  Then, it is assumed that the user is going to park a self-owned bicycle 4 (bicycle bicycle 4A), for example, on the bicycle lock device 14 assigned with the device number 302, which is currently an empty vehicle. In this case, the user inserts the front wheel of the bicycle parking bicycle 4 </ b> A into the insertion port 14 </ b> A of the bicycle lock device 14. Then, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the highest digit “3” of the device number. In response to this, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the device number input screen shown in FIG.

  The user is guided as follows by the guidance display on the device number input screen shown in FIG. (A) When the user wants to park a self-owned bicycle 4 (parking bicycle 4A), for example, he / she is instructed to input the device number and registration key of the bicycle lock device 14 into which the front wheel of the bicycle 4A is inserted. Is done. (B) When the user intends to end the parking of the bicycle bicycle 4A, the device number and the adjustment key of the bicycle lock device 14 that locks the front wheel of the bicycle bicycle 4A are guided. (C) When the user intends to borrow the rental bicycle 4B, the user is guided to input the device number and registration key of the bicycle lock device 14 that locks the front wheel of the rental bicycle 4B. (D) When the user intends to return the rental bicycle 4B, the user is guided to input the device number of the bicycle lock device 14 into which the front wheel of the rental bicycle 4B is inserted and the settlement key.

  The user who intends to park the bicycle 4A operates the numeric keypad 32 according to the guidance display on the device number input screen, inputs the last two digits “02” of the device number, and then presses the registration key. . In response to this, the screen of the display device 31 is switched to the personal identification number input screen of FIG. Subsequently, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input a password, and presses the registration key. The personal identification number is an arbitrary four-digit number, for example. At this time, the personal identification number is only displayed as “xxxx” on the screen of the display 31 and no specific number of the inputted personal identification number is displayed. This is to prevent other people from seeing the password from behind the user.

  In response to the input of the personal identification number and the subsequent pressing of the registration key, the screen of the display unit 31 is switched to the personal identification number input completion screen of FIG. After a while, the screen of the display 31 returns to the standby screen of FIG. 6A, and the parking fee adjusting machine 11 enters a standby state.

  Here, since the personal identification number may be forgotten, the personal identification number can be omitted during parking. In this case, it is only necessary to insert the front wheel of the parking bicycle 4A into the bicycle lock device 14 into the insertion port 14A, and after a preset time has passed, the personal identification number is not registered and the lock is automatically applied. ing.

  Next, the processing operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 in the parking process will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 11, when there is no operation by the user or the like, the CPU 41 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11 controls the display 31 while displaying the standby screen shown in FIG. S1) Waits for key input (step S2). When the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the most significant digit of the device number, the CPU 41 switches the screen of the display 31 to the device number input screen shown in FIG. 6 (2) and uses the device number input screen via the device number input screen. A guidance display for guiding the input of the device number is output to the person (step S3). At this time, a guidance voice for guiding the input of the device number may be output from the speaker 37.

  When the user inputs a device number according to the device number input screen and presses a registration key or a settlement key, the CPU 41 determines whether the key pressed by the user is a registration key or a settlement key. (Step S4). Depending on whether the key pressed by the user is a registration key or a settlement key, whether the user has entered a device number for parking the bicycle 4A or renting the bicycle 4B, or the user It is possible to determine whether the device number has been input in order to end the parking of the bicycle bicycle 4A or to return the rental bicycle 4B.

  If the key pressed by the user is a registration key, then the device number input by the user is assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A. It is determined whether the number is a device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the rental bicycle 4B (step S5). The determination relating to the device number can be made by referring to the data table T3 stored in the memory 42. This makes it possible to determine whether the user has input a device number for parking the bicycle 4A or a device number for borrowing the rental bicycle 4B. On the other hand, in step S5, when the device number input by the user does not correspond to any of the device numbers assigned to the bicycle lock device 14, an error display is output on the screen of the display 31; An alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S3 so that the user can input the device number again.

  Furthermore, in step S5, the CPU 41 uses the front wheel detection unit 55 to check that the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is inserted into the insertion port 14A of the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number is assigned. When the front wheel of the bicycle is not inserted, an error display is output on the screen of the display 31 and an alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S3.

  In step S5, the device number input by the user is the device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A, and the bicycle lock device to which the device number is assigned. When the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is inserted into the 14 insertion port 14A, the CPU 41 determines whether or not the personal identification number associated with the device number input by the user is stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42. Is checked (step S6). If the code number associated with the device number is already stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42, another bicycle bicycle 4A is already parked in the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number is assigned. Since it should have been completed, the CPU 41 outputs an error display on the screen of the display 31 and outputs an alarm sound from the speaker 37, and returns the process to step S3 so that the user can input the device number again. .

  When the personal identification number associated with the device number input by the user is not stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42, the CPU 41 displays the personal identification number shown in FIG. The screen is switched to the input screen, and a guidance display for guiding the input of the personal identification number is output to the user via the personal identification number input screen (step S7). At this time, a guidance voice for guiding the input of the password may be output from the speaker 37.

  When the user operates the numeric keypad 32 according to the guidance display on the password input screen and inputs the password, the CPU 41 checks whether or not the input password is normal (step S8). For example, when a four-digit number is to be input as a personal identification number, but the input personal identification number is not normal, such as when only a two-digit number is input, the CPU 41 outputs an error display on the screen of the display 31. At the same time, an alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S7 so that the user can input the password again.

  If the password entered by the user is normal, the CPU 41 stores the password in the data table T3 in the memory 42 in association with the device number entered by the user (step S9). ). Subsequently, the CPU 41 switches the screen of the display 31 to a personal identification number input completion screen shown in FIG. 6 (4) (step S10). Next, the CPU 41 uses the lock mechanism unit 54 of the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number input by the user is assigned, and the lock device control unit 53 of the bicycle lock relay device 17 to which the bicycle lock device 14 is connected. The bicycle bicycle 4A is locked through the control (step S11).

  When a predetermined time has passed without any user operation after switching to the password input screen in step S7, the CPU 41 displays a completion screen (not shown) on the screen of the display 31 and then steps S8 and S9. , S10 is skipped and the process proceeds to step S11 to immediately lock the bicycle bicycle 4A.

(Parking end processing)
FIG. 7 shows the operation at the end of parking in the parking fee settlement machine 11. First, the operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 by the user at the end of parking will be described with reference to FIG. Before the user starts the operation, a standby screen shown in FIG. 7A is displayed on the screen of the display 31 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11. Then, as described above, the user who parked the self-owned bicycle 4 (parking bicycle 4A) on the bicycle lock device 14 assigned with the device number 302 will end the parking of the bicycle bicycle 4A. Suppose that In this case, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the highest digit “3” of the device number. In response to this, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the device number input screen shown in FIG. Subsequently, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the last two digits “02” of the device number and presses the settlement key. In response to this, the screen of the display device 31 is switched to the personal identification number input screen of FIG. Subsequently, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input a password. If the password matches the password entered by the user during parking, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the parking fee settlement screen shown in FIG. 7 (4). The bicycle parking fee is displayed on the bicycle parking fee settlement screen. When the user completes the payment according to the bicycle parking fee adjustment screen, the screen of the display 31 is switched to a payment completion screen (not shown), and after a while, the screen of the display 31 returns to the standby screen of FIG.

  If the user omits the PIN code when parking, the screen on the display 31 immediately changes to the parking fee according to the last two digits entered by the user at the end of parking. Switch to the checkout screen.

  Next, the processing operation of the parking fee adjusting machine 11 in the parking end processing will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 11, when there is no operation by the user or the like, the CPU 41 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11 controls the display 31 while displaying the standby screen shown in FIG. S1) Waits for key input (step S2). When the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the most significant digit of the device number, the CPU 41 switches the screen of the display 31 to the device number input screen shown in FIG. 7 (2) and uses the device number input screen via the device number input screen. A guidance display for guiding the input of the device number is output to the person (step S3). At this time, a guidance voice for guiding the input of the device number may be output from the speaker 37.

  When the user inputs a device number according to the device number input screen and presses a registration key or a settlement key, the CPU 41 determines whether the key pressed by the user is a registration key or a settlement key. (Step S4).

  If the key pressed by the user is a checkout key, then the device number entered by the user is assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A. It is determined whether it is a number or a device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the rental bicycle 4B (step S12). Thereby, it can be determined whether the user has input a device number in order to end the parking of the bicycle 4A, or has input a device number in order to return the rental bicycle 4B. In step S12, if the device number input by the user does not correspond to any of the device numbers assigned to the bicycle lock device 14, the CPU 41 outputs an error display on the screen of the display 31. At the same time, an alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S3 so that the user can input the device number again.

  In step S12, if the device number input by the user is the device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A, the data table T3 in the memory 42 is stored. By referring, it is determined whether or not the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number is assigned is in a locked state. When the bicycle lock device 14 is not in the locked state, it is an erroneous state that the bicycle parking end operation is being performed on the empty bicycle lock device 14. In addition to outputting an error display, an alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S3 so that the user can input the device number again.

  The device number input by the user is the device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A, and the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number is assigned is in the locked state. In this case, the CPU 41 checks whether or not the password number associated with the device number input by the user is stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42 (step S13). Thereby, it is possible to recognize whether or not the user has omitted the input of the password at the time of parking.

  When the personal identification number associated with the device number input by the user is stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42, the CPU 41 displays the personal identification number input screen shown in FIG. And a guidance display for guiding the input of the personal identification number is output to the user via the personal identification number input screen (step S14). At this time, a guidance voice for guiding the input of the password may be output from the speaker 37.

  When the user operates the numeric keypad 32 according to the guidance display on the password input screen and inputs the password, the CPU 41 associates the input password with the device number input by the user and stores the memory 42. It is determined whether or not the personal identification number stored in the internal data table T3 matches (step S15). When these two passwords do not match, the CPU 41 outputs an error display on the screen of the display 31 and outputs an alarm sound from the speaker 37 so that the user can input the password again. Return to step S14.

  When the entered code number and the code number associated with the device number entered by the user and stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42 match, the CPU 41 displays the screen of the display 31. Switching to the bicycle parking fee settlement screen shown in 7 (4), a guidance display for guiding the user to pay the bicycle parking fee is output via the bicycle parking fee settlement screen (step S16). After the user pays the bicycle parking fee by inserting cash or inserting a card according to the bicycle parking fee settlement screen and the settlement process is completed (step S17), the CPU 41 is assigned the device number input by the user. The parking bicycle 4A is unlocked by controlling the lock mechanism 54 of the bicycle lock device 14 via the lock device control unit 53 of the bicycle lock relay device 17 to which the bicycle lock device 14 is connected (step S18). ). Thereafter, the CPU 41 deletes the personal identification number associated with the device number input by the user from the data table T3 in the memory 42, and simultaneously updates other state data (step S19).

  On the other hand, if the code number associated with the device number input by the user is not stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42 in step S13, the user inputs the code number when parking. The CPU 41 determines that it has been omitted, and immediately shifts the processing to the display of the parking fee settlement screen in step S16.

(Lending process)
FIG. 8 shows an operation at the time of bicycle rental in the parking fee adjusting machine 11. FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the operation of the parking fee adjusting machine 11 in the lending / return management process.

  First, the operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 by the user when renting a bicycle will be described with reference to FIG. Before the user starts the operation, a standby screen as shown in FIG. 6 (1) or FIG. 7 (1) is displayed on the screen of the display 31 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11. Then, it is assumed that the user wants to borrow the rental bicycle 4B locked to the bicycle lock device 14 assigned with the device number 310, for example. In this case, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the highest digit “3” of the device number. In response to this, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the device number input screen shown in FIG. Subsequently, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the last two digits “10” of the device number and presses the registration key. In response to this, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the personal identification number input screen of FIG. Subsequently, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input a password, and presses the registration key. The format of the password used for renting the rental bicycle 4B is, for example, an arbitrary four-digit number similar to the format of the password used for parking the bicycle 4A. Further, as in the case of the operation at the time of parking, the personal identification number is only displayed as “xxx” on the screen of the display device 31, and the specific number of the inputted personal identification number is not displayed.

  In response to the input of the password and the subsequent pressing of the registration key, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the rental fee payment screen of FIG. When the user pays the lending fee displayed on the lending fee payment screen, the screen of the display unit 31 is switched to the lending fee payment completion screen of FIG. At this time, the change and the receipt slip to be described later appear from the change / receipt taking-out opening 40 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11. The user receives this, and after a while, the screen of the display 31 returns to the standby screen as shown in FIG. 6 (1) or FIG. 7 (1), and the parking fee settlement machine 11 enters the standby state.

  Next, the operation of the parking fee adjusting machine 11 in the lending process will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 11, when there is no operation by the user or the like, the CPU 41 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11 displays a standby screen as shown in FIG. 6 (1) or FIG. 7 (1) on the screen of the display 31 ( Step S1), waiting for key input (step S2). When the user inputs the most significant digit of the device number, the CPU 41 switches the screen of the display 31 to the device number input screen shown in FIG. 8 (1), and sends the device number to the user via the device number input screen. A guidance display for guiding the input is output (step S3).

  When the user inputs a device number according to the device number input screen and presses a registration key or a settlement key, the CPU 41 determines whether the key pressed by the user is a registration key or a settlement key. (Step S4).

  If the key pressed by the user is a registration key, the device number input by the user is the device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the bicycle bicycle 4A, It is determined whether the device number is assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the rental bicycle 4B (step S5). In step S5, if the device number input by the user does not correspond to any device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14, the CPU 41 outputs an error display on the screen of the display 31. At the same time, an alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S3 so that the user can input the device number again.

  In step S5, if the device number input by the user is the device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the rental bicycle 4B, the CPU 41 causes the front wheel detection unit 55 to detect the device number. By referring to the data table T3 (whether or not the rental time is recorded) by inserting the front wheel of the bicycle 4 into the bicycle lock device 14 to which the number is assigned, it is confirmed that the rental processing is not performed at the present time. To check. If the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is not inserted in the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number is assigned, or if the lending process has already been performed for the device number at the present time, the screen of the display 31 is displayed. In addition to outputting an error display, an alarm sound is output from the speaker 37, and the process returns to step S3 so that the user can input the device number again.

  The device number input by the user is the device number assigned to the bicycle lock device 14 for parking the rental bicycle 4B, and the front wheel of the bicycle 4 is inserted into the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number is assigned. When the lending process is not performed for the device number at the present time, the CPU 41 switches the screen of the display 31 to the password input screen shown in FIG. 8 (2) and uses the password via the password input screen. A guidance display for guiding the input of the personal identification number is output to the person (step S21 in FIG. 12). At this time, a guidance voice for guiding the input of the password may be output from the speaker 37.

  When the user operates the numeric keypad 32 according to the guidance display on the password input screen and inputs the password, the CPU 41 checks whether or not the input password is normal (step S22). For example, the password entered by the user is already stored in the data table T3 in the memory 42 in association with a device number other than the device number entered by the user, and the password is duplicated. In this case, the CPU 41 outputs an error display on the screen of the display 31 and outputs an alarm sound from the speaker 37, and returns the process to step S21 so that the user can input the password again.

  If the password entered by the user is normal, the CPU 41 stores the password in the data table T3 in the memory 42 in association with the device number entered by the user (step S23). ). Subsequently, the CPU 41 switches the screen of the display 31 to the rental fee payment screen shown in FIG. 8 (3), and outputs a guidance display for guiding the user to pay the rental fee via the rental fee payment screen ( Step S24). At this time, a guidance voice for guiding payment of the rental fee may be output from the speaker 37. After the user pays a lending fee by inserting cash or inserting a card according to the lending fee payment screen, and the reception processing of the lending fee by the CPU 41 is completed accordingly (step S25), the CPU 41 displays the screen of the display 31. The lending fee payment completion screen shown in FIG. 8 (4) is displayed (step S26). Subsequently, the CPU 41 uses the lock mechanism unit 54 of the bicycle lock device 14 to which the device number input by the user is assigned as the lock device control unit 53 of the bicycle lock relay device 17 to which the bicycle lock device 14 is connected. The bicycle rental bicycle 4B is unlocked by controlling through (step S27). Next, the CPU 41 issues a lending slip by controlling the receipt printer 44 (step S28).

  Here, FIG. 10 shows an example of a loan slip. As shown in FIG. 10, the device number 62 and the personal identification number 63 that are input by the user at the time of bicycle rental are printed on the rental slip. Even if the user has forgotten the device number 62 or the personal identification number 63 at the time of bicycle return, the user receives this loan slip at the time of bicycle rental and holds this loan slip until the bicycle is returned. By looking at the device number 62 or the personal identification number 63 printed on the screen, the device number 62 or the personal identification number 63 can be input accurately and reliably.

(Return processing)
FIG. 9 shows an operation at the time of returning the bicycle in the parking fee adjusting machine 11. First, the operation of the parking fee settlement machine 11 by the user when returning the bicycle will be described with reference to FIG. Before the user starts the operation, a standby screen as shown in FIG. 6 (1) or FIG. 7 (1) is displayed on the screen of the display 31 of the parking fee adjusting machine 11. Then, as described above, it is assumed that the user who borrowed the rental bicycle 4B locked to the bicycle lock device 14 assigned the device number 310 at the time of bicycle rental intends to return the rental bicycle 4B. In this case, the user uses the bicycle lock device 14 (the bicycle assigned with the device number 310 in this example) to which the rental bicycle 4B is locked when the rental bicycle 4B is rented. It is inserted into the insertion port 14A of the locking device 14). Then, the user operates the numeric keypad 32 to input the highest digit “3” of the device number. In response to this, the screen of the display 31 is switched to the device number input screen shown in FIG.
