Description

Embodiments described herein relate generally to a regular ticket utilization system, a ticket selling apparatus, and a regular ticket utilization method.

When using trains, buses, etc., if the commuter pass user has forgotten the commuter pass at home and does not have the commuter pass, the person is identified and a temporary ticket is issued There is.

  This method prohibits the use of the original commuter pass while using a temporary ticket. In addition, when the commuter pass is paid as an SF card (stored fair system card), a temporary ticket outside the commuter pass section is also issued.

  In general, if you do not have a commuter pass, there are often two extra rides to return to your destination.

However, since a temporary ticket needs to be issued each time it is used, the labor of the user increases.

IC card commuter passes often have an SF card function as a composite ticket, but temporary tickets cannot be used for purchasing goods at stores other than transportation.

Furthermore, the temporary ticket to be issued and the normal ticket have different ticket information formats, and the temporary ticket has a special ticket information format. For this reason, in order to introduce the system, it is necessary to add special processing to a processing machine such as an automatic ticket gate.

  In some cases, IC card commuter passes are reissued when lost.

This is to switch the function of the original IC card commuter pass by invalidating it to the server that manages the information of the IC card, and a new medium for the IC card commuter pass to be reissued is required. The user will bear the cost of the medium.

A station service system using a regular ticket utilization system will be described with reference to the embodiment of FIG.

In the present embodiment, when the user purchases the IC card commuter pass 7a, the information shown in FIG. 3 is recorded in the database 7c of the server device 7b (storage device 1) by the user's application.

As the user identification information 11d, keyword information determined by the user himself / herself, information by fingerprint authentication of the user, information by vein authentication, IC tag information, or the like may be used.

In the station service system of this embodiment, for example, when an IC card commuter pass 7a owned by a user is not carried at a station or the like, a ticket vending machine such as a station, a commuter pass issuing machine, or a station staff at a window operates The application for issuing the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is made at the window processing machine (hereinafter referred to as ticket vending machine 7d (ticket vending apparatus 3)) (step S1).

In the issuance application of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e, the user indicates to the server device 7b the user identification information 11d for identifying the user who applied when purchasing the IC card commuter pass 7a. Confirm your identity.

Next, the server device 7b authenticates the user by collating the user identification information 11d, and issues a temporary IC card commuter pass 7e when the identity of the user is obtained (step S2).

The provisional IC card commuter pass 7e is issued by transmitting the information of the IC card commuter pass 7a of the server device 7b to the application vending machine 7d, and the ticket vending machine 7d performs based on the information. At the time of issuance, settings are made to limit the IC card function to the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e.

For example, limited use period of temporary IC card commuter pass 7e (for example, use only on the day), designation of product sales restrictions when issuing temporary IC card commuter pass 7e, and provisional IC card commuter pass for temporary IC card commuter pass 7e Whether or not the ticket 7e is issued is determined.

Information on issued temporary IC card commuter pass 7e (passage ticket information, electronic data settlement information, provisional IC card identification information, identification information for identifying user of provisional IC card commuter pass 7e, and provisional IC card commuter pass The registration that restricts the use of the ticket 7e) is recorded and managed in the database 7c of the server device 7b in association with the information of the IC card commuter pass 7a that is the source of the information of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e.

Next, the server device 7b receives an application for issuance of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e from the user, and the non-mobile IC card commuter pass 7a owned by the user is in use of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7b. Registration of use restriction registration 11f that prevents use of the device is registered in the database 7c, and the registration is performed using an automatic ticket checker and an electronic card payment device such as an IC card commuter pass (hereinafter referred to as an automatic ticket checker). 7f (shown as ticket gate device 5)) (step S3).

The automatic ticket gate 7f notified of the registration records the notified registration and prohibits the use of the automatic ticket gate 7f by the non-mobile IC card commuter pass 7a.

This prohibits unauthorized use of the non-mobile IC card commuter pass 7a (for example, use of the IC card commuter pass 7a other than the user who owns the non-mobile IC card commuter pass 7a).

Next, when using the automatic ticket gate 7f using the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e issued by the user, the automatic ticket gate 7f reads the information recorded on the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e, Based on the read information and information of the automatic ticket gate 7f (for example, registration information of the ticket information 11a, payment information 11b, identification information 11c of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e and non-carrying IC card commuter pass 7a, etc.) Processing such as recording of information on the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is performed (step S4).

For example, when the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is issued, the settlement information 42 of the IC card commuter pass 7a that is not carried (for example, the remaining charge of 5000 yen to the IC card) is recorded in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e. If the automatic ticket gate 7f is used, the usage fee (for example, 1000 yen) is settled by the SF card function by reading the information recorded in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e, and the settlement The result (for example, the remaining charge amount of 4000 yen) can be recorded on the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e.

By these processes, the user can use the automatic ticket gate 7f using the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e.

Next, when the user returns the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e issued by the application, the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is returned to the ticket vending machine 7d together with the IC card commuter pass 7a (step S5).

The ticket vending machine 7d collects the two IC card commuter passes returned from the user and records them in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e to the IC card commuter pass 7a that the user was not carrying with respect to the server device 7b. An inquiry (determination of whether or not integration is possible) is performed to integrate the information on the usage status (for example, payment information 42).

Next, the server device 7b determines whether or not the IC card commuter pass was not carried by the user due to restrictions on the use of the IC card commuter pass 7a registered in the database 7c with respect to the ticket vending machine 7d that inquired whether or not the integration was possible. It is determined whether or not the usage status information recorded on the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e can be integrated into the ticket 7a.

The ticket vending machine 7d that has received an answer from the server device 7b about whether or not it can be integrated, if the answer is acceptable, information on the usage status of the IC card commuter pass 7a is recorded in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e. Integration is performed by rewriting information.

At that time, rewriting is performed so that the information recorded in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e cannot be used (step S6).

Also, if there is no answer as to whether or not the server device 7b can be integrated into the ticket vending machine 7d, information on the usage status of the IC card commuter pass 7a and the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is not integrated.

For example, it is possible to reply whether or not the server device 7b can be integrated into the ticket vending machine 7d, and information on the usage status of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e (for example, settlement information 42 (remaining amount of charge to IC card 4000 yen)) And IC card commuter pass 7a usage status information (for example, settlement information 42 (the remaining amount of charge to IC card is 5000 yen)) is integrated with IC card commuter pass 7a usage status information as a temporary IC card. The information on the usage status of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is used by integrating the usage status information by rewriting the information on the usage status of the commuter pass 7e (payment information 42 (remaining amount of charge to the IC card is 4000 yen)). Rewrite so that it can no longer be made (provisional IC card commuter pass 7e disabled).

Next, when the server device 7b returns the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e from the user, the server device 7b makes an inquiry for determination to integrate the usage status information recorded in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e from the ticket vending machine 7d. If there is, registration that enables use of the IC card commuter pass 7a that is not carried by the user is performed in the database 7c of the server device 7b (step S7).

At that time, if integration with the usage status information recorded in the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e is possible, the usage status information of the IC card commuter pass 7a is used as the usage status information of the temporary IC card commuter pass 7e. Update (change).

  According to the embodiment of the regular ticket use system described above, the following effects can be obtained.

  (1) When the IC card commuter pass 4 owned by the user is not carried (not owned), the IC card commuter pass 4 not carried at the transportation facility (station, bus office, information office, etc.) By issuing a temporary IC card commuter pass 4 '(an IC card commuter pass that is issued temporarily and collected later) with a function close to or when using the IC card function Convenience can be improved.

For example, if you do not have an IC card commuter pass 4 and you issue a temporary ticket (a magnetic ticket issued temporarily), you must issue a temporary ticket each time you use it. IC card commuter pass 4 often has an SF card function as a composite ticket, but extraneous tickets can be purchased for goods other than transportation (installation of cash register (cash register) corresponding to IC card) Although it is inconvenient that it cannot be used for purchasing goods at a store, it is possible to improve user convenience by issuing a temporary IC card commuter pass 4 ′.

Further, in the method of reissuing the IC card commuter pass 4, the function of the IC card commuter pass 4 that is not carried (not possessed) is invalidally registered from the storage device 1, and the IC card of the IC card commuter pass 4 is switched. Since new media is required, the user will be responsible for the cost of the IC card media. However, in the method of issuing the temporary IC card commuter pass 4 'on an ad hoc basis, However, since the IC card medium is collected, the user does not pay the cost of the IC card medium.

  (2) When the user does not carry the IC card commuter pass 4 that he / she owns (not possessed), the function is similar to the IC card commuter pass 4 that is not carried at the facility of transportation or has the same effect By issuing the IC card commuter pass 4 ′ and switching the valid IC card commuter pass 4 by registration in the storage device 1, the user can use the conventional system and the convenience can be improved.

For example, in the method of issuing a temporary ticket (a magnetic ticket issued temporarily), the temporary ticket issued is different from a normal ticket (magnetic ticket and magnetic commuter pass) and is used as a commuter pass. The ticket surface information is special in order to control availability.

For this reason, it is necessary to add special processing to a station service device such as a station such as the automatic ticket gate 3, which makes it impossible to use a conventional system, but it is effective by registration in the storage device 1. In the method of switching the IC card commuter pass 4, the user can use the conventional system and the convenience can be improved.

In the present embodiment, an example of a commuter pass utilization system using hardware resources of a station service system (railway system) has been shown. However, as another embodiment, a bus operating system for issuing a bus boarding card is shown. It may be a bus commuter pass utilization system that uses hardware resources of a bus system installed at a station or information center, or a railway / bus common boarding card system.

  Although several embodiments of the present invention have been described, these embodiments are presented by way of example and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. These embodiments and their modifications are included in the scope and gist of the invention, and are also included in the invention described in the claims and the equivalents thereof.
