  Hereinafter, embodiments of a delivery information notification system and a delivery information notification program according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

  FIG. 1 shows a delivery information notification system 1 according to this embodiment. The delivery information notification system 1 is a system for notifying a user of information related to delivery. The delivery information notification system 1 judges (discriminates) the type of delivery delivered to the mailbox 2 and notifies the user of information according to the judgment. The mailbox 2 is a receiving device for receiving deliveries of individual users. The mailbox 2 has, for example, a box shape, and is provided in an individual user's house or the like. The mailbox 2 is provided with a delivery port (posting port) that can deliver deliverables. The mailbox 2 is delivered by the delivery person delivering the delivery items from the delivery port. Receive things. A door is provided at the delivery port. Normally, the door is closed and the door is opened when a delivery item is posted. There are several types of deliveries received by the mailbox 2. The types of deliverables are, for example, newspapers, flyers (by posting) and other deliveries (for example, postal items).

  As shown in FIG. 1, the delivery information notification system 1 includes an attachment device 10 and a mobile terminal 20. The attachment device 10 is a device attached to the mailbox 2. The attachment device 10 detects a posting to a delivery to the mailbox 2 or the like. The portable terminal 20 is a device carried by the user, and specifically corresponds to a smartphone or the like. The mobile terminal 20 receives information from the attachment device 10 and determines the type of delivery and notifies the user. In the attachment device 10 and the portable terminal 20, a device number that is identification information for specifying them is set in advance.

  The attachment device 10 attached to the mailbox 2 owned by the same user and the portable terminal 20 owned by the same user are connected in advance so that the devices can be connected by short-range wireless communication in advance. Pairing) has been made.

  Subsequently, functions of the attachment device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 according to the present embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the attachment device 10 includes an open / close detection unit 11, a weight detection unit 12, a record management unit 13, and a transmission / reception unit 14.

  The open / close detection unit 11 detects that the delivery item has been received by the mailbox 2 to which the attachment device 10 is attached (the delivery item has been posted on the mailbox 2), and at the time when the delivery item was received. This is a function of detecting means for detecting a certain posting time. The open / close detection unit 11 has, for example, an acceleration sensor provided at the door of the delivery port and a timekeeping function. The opening / closing detection unit 11 detects that the door of the delivery port has been opened by the acceleration sensor, and sets the time when the detection is made as the posting time. The open / close detection unit 11 outputs information indicating the detected posting time to the record management unit 13. Alternatively, the open / close detection unit 11 has a switch that turns on when the door of the delivery door is opened and turns off when the door of the door of delivery is closed instead of the acceleration sensor. The switch may detect that the door of the delivery port has been opened.

  The weight detection unit 12 is a function of a detection unit that detects the weight of a delivery received by the mailbox 2 to which the attachment device 10 is attached. The weight detection unit 12 includes, for example, a weight sensor provided at the bottom of the part that accommodates the delivery of the mailbox 2. The weight detection unit 12 receives a weight detection instruction from the record management unit 13 (performed when the delivery detection by the postbox 2 is detected by the opening / closing detection unit 11), and the weight sensor delivers the product in the postbox 2. Start measuring the weight of the object. When the variation in the weight value settles, the weight detection unit 12 outputs a value obtained by subtracting the weight before the start of measurement from the measured weight to the record management unit 13 as information indicating the weight of the delivery item.

  The record management unit 13 is a function of a detection unit that manages information about a delivery received by the mailbox 2 to which the attachment device 10 is attached. When the record management unit 13 inputs information indicating the posting time from the opening / closing detection unit 11, the record management unit 13 instructs the weight detection unit 12 to detect the weight of the delivery item. When the record management unit 13 inputs information indicating the weight of the delivery item from the weight detection unit 12 in response to the instruction, the record management unit 13 stores the information as posting information corresponding to the information indicating the posting time. The record management unit 13 may store the number of data in advance, and delete the oldest data when the number of stored posting information exceeds the number of stored data. .

  The example of the posting information memorize | stored by the recording management part 13 in the data table of Fig.3 (a) is shown. As shown in the data table of FIG. 3A, the posting information is information in which the posting time and the weight (g) are associated with each other. The record management unit 13 outputs the stored posting information to the transmission / reception unit 14. The information is output to the transmission / reception unit 14 at the timing of sending the posting information by the transmission / reception unit 14. For example, it is performed every predetermined time (specifically, several seconds to several minutes, etc.).

  The record management unit 13 inputs, from the transmission / reception unit 14, information indicating the delivery type determination result by the mobile terminal 20 for each piece of posting information data (one posting time and weight data corresponding to one posting). . As will be described in detail later, the delivery type determination can be performed by the mobile terminal 20 for which connection setting has been made in the own device 10 and other mobile terminals 20. The record management unit 13 does not output to the transmission / reception unit 14 the data of the posting information related to the deliverable whose type is determined by the mobile terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own device 10. That is, the posting information is not transmitted from the attachment device 10.

  The record management unit 13 sends data on postage information related to the deliverable whose type is determined by the mobile terminal 20 other than the mobile terminal 20 for which connection setting has been made in the own device 10, and other deliverables (type determination is made). The data of posting information relating to the delivery item that has not been delivered is output to the transmission / reception unit 14.

  The transmission / reception unit 14 is means for transmitting / receiving information to / from the mobile terminal 20 by short-range wireless communication. The transmission / reception unit 14 is a detection unit that receives posting information from the recording management unit 13 and transmits it by short-range wireless communication. Short-range wireless communication with the portable terminal 20 is performed by, for example, BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). “Bluetooth” is a registered trademark.

  The transmission / reception unit 14 transmits the data of the posting information related to the delivery item for which the classification is not determined, by broadcast so that it can be received by any (unspecified number of) portable terminals 20. For example, it is transmitted by advertising BLE. At the time of sending the posting information, the device number of the own apparatus 10 is added to the sending information to be sent (to be sent together) so that the attachment device 10 sent by the mobile terminal 20 on the receiving side can be identified.

  The transmission / reception unit 14 uses the mobile device for which connection setting is set in the own device 10 for the delivery information related to the delivery item whose type is determined by the mobile terminal 20 other than the mobile terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own device 10. It transmits to the terminal 20. For example, the transmission / reception unit 14 establishes a BLE connection with the mobile terminal 20 for which connection setting is performed in the own device 10 and transmits posting information through the connection. At the time of this transmission, information indicating the type of delivery determined by the mobile terminal 20 other than the mobile terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own device 10 is added to the posting information to be transmitted (accordingly) Send). When the mobile terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own device 10 is not located in a range where short-range wireless communication is possible (a range where radio waves of short-range wireless communication reach) (for example, between the mobile terminal 20 and the mobile device 20) When the BLE connection cannot be established), the transmission may not be performed.

  In addition, the transmission / reception unit 14 receives information indicating the type determination result of the delivery item related to the transmitted posting information from the mobile terminal 20. The transmission / reception unit 14 outputs information indicating the received delivery type determination result to the record management unit 13. The functional configuration of the attachment device 10 has been described above.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the mobile terminal 20 includes a transmission / reception unit 21, a determination unit 22, and a user notification unit 23. Moreover, the portable terminal 20 may have the function with which a smart phone etc. are normally provided besides the function which concerns on the following this embodiment.

  The transmission / reception unit 21 is means for transmitting / receiving information to / from the attachment device 10 by short-range wireless communication. The transmission / reception unit 21 is received information acquisition means for acquiring posting information. The transmission / reception unit 21 receives and acquires the posting information transmitted from the attachment device 10. The transmission / reception unit 21 acquires a plurality of pieces of posting information related to deliverables received by a plurality of different mailboxes 2. That is, the transmission / reception unit 21 receives posting information from the plurality of attachment devices 10. More specifically, the transmission / reception unit 21 establishes a BLE connection with the posting information transmitted from the attachment device 10 by advertisement (broadcast) or with the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been performed in the terminal 20 itself. The posting information transmitted via the connection is received.

  FIG. 3B shows an example of posting information received by the transmission / reception unit 21. As shown in FIG. 3B, the posting information is associated with the device number of the attachment device 10 in addition to the information stored in the attachment device 10. Although not shown in FIG. 3B, the posting information for which the type determination of the delivery item is performed in the portable terminal 20 other than the terminal itself is also associated with information indicating the type determination result. The transmission / reception unit 21 outputs the received posting information to the determination unit 22.

  The transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result input from the determination unit 22 to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information. The attachment device 10 that is a transmission destination is the attachment device 10 that is identified by the device No. associated with the posting information related to the type determination result.

  The determination unit 22 is a determination unit that determines the type of delivery item related to the posting information based on the weight and the posting time indicated by the posting information input from the transmission / reception unit 21. Based on the weight and posting time indicated by the posting information related to the delivery received at the mailbox 2 other than the mailbox 2 from which the type of delivery to be judged is received, the determination unit 22 determines the delivery to be determined. Determine the type of. Further, the determination unit 22 makes a determination in accordance with the mailbox 2 (specifically, whether it is posting information from the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made as will be described later) from which the delivery object of the type to be determined has been received. The type of delivery is determined based on the rule. Specifically, the determination unit 22 determines the type of delivery item as follows.

  The type of delivery is determined according to the pattern of the surrounding situation where the mailbox 2 is provided. An example of the pattern is shown in FIG. Pattern A is a situation where the home is an apartment house or the like, and a plurality of mailboxes 2 exist in the same building. Pattern B is a situation where the house is a detached house and there are apartments (a house where a plurality of mailboxes 2 exist in the same building) in the vicinity (for example, within Xm (for example, several tens of meters) from the house). is there. The pattern C is a pattern in which the home is a detached house, and the mailboxes 2 are present sparsely in the vicinity (for example, on the user's commuting route) (the detached sparsely exists in the vicinity).

  Judgment criteria (judgment rules) for judging the type of deliverable are provided in advance according to the above pattern. The determination unit 22 stores in advance which determination criterion is used to determine the type of delivery item. As will be described later, the determination unit 22 also determines the type of delivery received by the mailbox 2 other than the mailbox 2 owned by the user.

  FIG. 5 shows (a part of) information indicating the above judgment criteria. FIG. 5 (a) is information indicating a criterion based on the posting time. As shown in FIG. 5A, this information is information in which the type of delivery item is associated with the time range (time zone). FIG. 5B is information indicating a determination criterion based on weight. As shown in FIG. 5B, this information is information in which the type of delivery item is associated with the weight range. This information may be preset by the user of the mobile terminal 20, for example. The following determination processing is performed based on information indicating the above-described determination criteria.

  First, the determination unit 22 uses the posting information input from the transmission / reception unit 21 as the posting information of the attachment device 10 (the attachment device 10 attached to the mailbox 2 owned by the user who owns the mobile terminal 20) for which connection setting has been made. Determine whether or not. This determination is performed by determining whether or not the device No. associated with the posting information input from the transmission / reception unit 21 matches the device No. of the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting stored in advance is made. If they match, it is determined that the posting information input from the transmission / reception unit 21 is posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made. If they do not match, it is determined that it is not posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made. In addition, when the posting information is received by the transmission / reception unit 21 when the short-range wireless communication has been established (when the posting information transmitted by the advertisement is not received), the attachment device for which the connection setting has been made You may judge that it is 10 posting information.

  If it is determined that it is not posting information of the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made (posting information of the attachment device 10 other than the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made), the determination unit 22 other than the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made It is determined whether posting information has been received from a predetermined number (for example, 3) of attachment devices 10 during a time that has been set in advance (for example, several minutes) from the present time. That is, it is determined whether posting information has been received from the predetermined number of attachment devices 10 within a predetermined time. The determination unit 22 stores the posting information input from the transmission / reception unit 21 and the reception time by the transmission / reception unit 21 in order to make the above determination. If it is determined that the posting information has not been received from the predetermined number of attachment devices 10 within a predetermined time, the determination unit 22 does not determine the type of delivery item.

  When it is determined that the posting information is received from the predetermined number of attachment devices 10 within the predetermined time, the determination unit 22 determines the posting information to be determined (input from the transmission / reception unit 21 at that time) as follows. For each piece of data (posting information) (one post time and weight data corresponding to one post), it is determined whether the delivery is a flyer or other delivery. The determination unit 22 determines whether or not the posting time of the data to be determined is within a preset range based on the posting time of any data of the posting information received from the other mounting device 10. To do. The preset range is, for example, ± Y minutes of the posting time of the data of the posting information related to the other mounting device 10 (for example, a few minutes (more specifically, 5 minutes if pattern A or pattern B), In the case of the pattern C, the time is longer than the pattern A or the pattern B and is several minutes to several tens of minutes (more specifically, 30 minutes).

  If the determination unit 22 determines that the posting time of the data is not within the range, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery related to the data is another delivery. If the determination unit 22 determines that the posting time of the data is within the range, the weight of the data is the data that is the determination criterion for the range (received from another attachment device 10). It is determined whether or not it is within a preset range based on the weight of the posting information data). The preset range is, for example, ± Zg (for example, several g regardless of the pattern) of the weight of the posting information data related to the other mounting device 10.

  When the determination unit 22 determines that the weight of the data is not within the range, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery item related to the data is another delivery item. If the determination unit 22 determines that the weight of the data is within the range, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery item related to the data is a flyer. The above determination is based on the assumption that if the delivery item is a flyer, the delivery item having the same weight is posted to the plurality of adjacent mailboxes 2 in the same time zone. The determination unit 22 outputs information indicating the type determination result for each data of the posting information, that is, information indicating the type of delivery related to each data of the posting information to the transmission / reception unit 21. At this time, information indicating the time at which the determination is performed may be output to the transmission / reception unit 21 and transmitted as well.

  When it is determined that the posting information input from the transmission / reception unit 21 is the posting information of the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made, the determination unit 22 performs the posting information data (corresponding to one posting) as follows. For each delivery time and weight data), it is determined whether the delivery is a newspaper, a flyer, or another delivery.

  The determination unit 22 determines whether or not the posting time and weight of the data to be determined are within a preset time and weight range (for example, based on the data table of FIG. 5 as described above) in order to determine that the data is a newspaper. Determine whether. If the determination unit 22 determines that the posting time and weight of the data are within the range related to the newspaper, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery item related to the data is a newspaper.

  If the determination unit 22 determines that the posting time of the data is not within the range related to the newspaper, then the determination unit 22 determines whether the type of delivery item related to the data has already been determined by another mobile terminal 20. To do. This determination is made by determining whether or not information indicating the type of delivery related to the data is added to the posting information. When the information indicating the type of delivery is added, the type of delivery is already determined by the other mobile terminal 20, and when the information indicating the type of delivery is not added, the type of delivery Is determined not to be determined by another mobile terminal 20. When the type of delivery related to the data has already been determined by the other mobile terminal 20, the determination unit 22 adopts the determination result by the other mobile terminal 20.

  If the type of delivery related to the data has not been determined by the other portable terminal 20, the determination unit 22 determines whether the delivery is a flyer for each piece of post information as follows, or other delivery The type is determined. This determination differs for each pattern. In the case of the pattern A, the type determination of whether the delivery item is a flyer or other delivery item is performed in the same manner as the determination of the posting information other than the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting is made. When there is no posting information received from another attachment device 10 to be compared, it is determined that the delivery items related to all the data are other delivery items.

  In the case of pattern B or pattern C, the determination is made as follows. The determination unit 22 specifies posting information received from the attachment device 10 other than the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made, and has been received most recently. When there is no such posting information, or when the specified posting information reception time is before a time that is set in advance from the current time (when the latest posting information is old to be used for this determination) ), The determination unit 22 determines that the deliverables related to all the data of the postal information to be judged (posting information received from the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made) are other deliverables.

  Subsequently, the determination unit 22 determines whether the delivery is a flyer for each piece of the specified posting information in the same manner as the determination for the posting information other than the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made, or other delivery items. The type is determined. When there is no delivery that is determined to be a flyer in this type determination, the determination unit 22 delivers the delivery related to all data of the posting information to be determined (posting information received from the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made). Is the other delivery.

  If there is a delivery that is determined to be a flyer in this type determination, the determination unit 22 subsequently determines the posting time of the data related to the delivery that is determined to be the flyer as the posting time of the data of the posting information to be determined. It is determined whether it is within a preset range as a reference. The preset range is, for example, ± Z minutes (the pattern B is shorter in the order of the pattern C and longer than the above Y minutes) of the posting time of the data related to the delivery determined to be a leaflet.

  If the determination unit 22 determines that the posting time of the data of the posting information to be determined is not within the range, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery item related to the data is another delivery item. When the determination unit 22 determines that the posting time of the data is within the range, the weight of the data is set in advance based on the weight of the data related to the delivery determined to be the flyer. To determine whether it is within the specified range. The preset range is, for example, ± Zg (for example, several g regardless of the pattern) of the weight of the data related to the delivery determined to be a flyer.

  When the determination unit 22 determines that the weight of the data of the posting information to be determined is not within the range, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery item related to the data is another delivery item. When the determination unit 22 determines that the weight of the data is within the range, the determination unit 22 determines that the delivery item related to the data is a flyer. In the case of the pattern B or the pattern C, the above determination is performed, for example, in the case of the pattern B, the data of the mailbox 2 of the apartment house or the neighboring house is prioritized, and it is first determined whether or not the leaflet is delivered. Based on this determination, it is determined whether or not the leaflet has been delivered to the mailbox 2 at home. The determination unit 22 sends information indicating the type determination result for each piece of data of the posting information of the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made, that is, information indicating the type of delivery related to each data of the posting information, to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification. To the unit 23. At this time, information indicating the time at which the determination is performed may be output to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification unit 23, and the information may be transmitted and output.

  The user notification unit 23 is an output unit that outputs information according to the result of determination by the determination unit 22. For example, the user notification unit 23 outputs information indicating the delivery time of the delivery item and the type of the delivery item related to each data of the posting information in a format that can be recognized by the user such as screen display or voice output on the mobile terminal 20. To notify the user of the delivery. Further, the user notification unit 23 may determine whether or not to output information according to the determination result by the determination unit 22. For example, when the delivery is determined to be a flyer, the user notification unit 23 may not perform notification to the user because the necessity of notification to the user is low.

  In addition, the user notification unit 23 counts the number of times the type of delivery is determined by the determination unit 22 for each type of delivery, stores it in the data table shown in FIG. 6, and outputs it at a specific timing. Also good. For example, the number of times described above may be stored in units of one day, and the information stored in the data table may be output at a specific time set in advance in one day. In addition, the data table illustrated in FIG. 6 may be stored in the attachment device 10 based on the information received from the mobile terminal 20. The functional configuration of the mobile terminal 20 has been described above.

The above is the configuration of the delivery information notification system 1 according to the present embodiment.

  Subsequently, processing executed in the delivery information notification system 1 will be described using the flowcharts of FIGS. 9 to 11. First, the process in the attachment device 10 will be described using the flowchart in FIG. 9, and then the process in the mobile terminal 20 will be described using the flowcharts in FIGS. 10 and 11.

  When a delivery item is posted on the mailbox 2, the attachment device 10 detects the posting time when the delivery item is received by the mailbox 2 by the open / close detection unit 11. The weight detector 12 detects the weight of the delivery item (S01). Information indicating the detected posting time is output from the open / close detection unit 11 to the recording management unit 13. Information indicating the detected weight is output from the weight detection unit 12 to the recording management unit 13.

  Subsequently, the recording management unit 13 associates the input information indicating the posting time and the information indicating the weight to provide posting information. The posting information is output from the record management unit 13 to the transmission / reception unit 14. Subsequently, posting information is transmitted to the mobile terminal 20 by the short-range wireless communication by the transmission / reception unit 14 (S02). The posting information is transmitted at predetermined time intervals, for example. In addition, the posting information to be transmitted includes information for which the type of delivery item is not determined in any portable terminal 20, or the delivery item only in the portable terminal 20 other than the portable terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own device 10. Is determined. That is, the posting information in which the type of delivery is determined in the mobile terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own device 10 is not transmitted.

  Posting information whose type of delivery is not determined in any portable terminal 20 is transmitted, for example, by BLE advertisement. On the other hand, the posting information in which the type of delivery is determined only in the portable terminal 20 other than the portable terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own apparatus 10 is sent to the portable terminal 20 that is set for connection in the own apparatus 10. Only sent to. For example, a short-range wireless communication connection is established with the portable terminal 20 and transmitted via the connection.

  In response to transmission of posting information to the mobile terminal 20, information indicating a delivery type determination result related to the posting information transmitted from the mobile terminal 20 may be transmitted. In the attachment device 10, the transmission / reception unit 14 receives information indicating the type determination result (S03). Information indicating the received type determination result is output from the transmission / reception unit 14 to the recording management unit 13. The recording management unit 13 receives the information indicating the type determination result and uses it for controlling posting information transmission as described above. The above is the processing in the attachment device 10.

  Next, processing in the mobile terminal 20 will be described using the flowcharts of FIGS. 10 and 11. In the portable terminal 20, when posting information is transmitted from the attachment device 10 by short-range wireless communication, the posting information is received by the transmission / reception unit 21 (S21). The received posting information is output from the transmission / reception unit 21 to the determination unit 22. Subsequently, the determination unit 22 determines whether the posting information is posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made (S22). When it is determined that it is posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made (YES in S22), processing in that case is performed (S23). This process will be described later with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  If it is determined that it is not posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made (NO in S22), then, a predetermined number of attachment devices other than the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made by the determination unit 22 10, it is determined whether or not the posting information is received during a time that is set in advance from the current time (S24). If it is determined that the posting information has not been received from the predetermined number of attachment devices 10 within a predetermined time (NO in S24), the type of delivery is not determined by the determination unit 22, and the posting information is received next. Processing is not performed until (S21).

  If it is determined that the posting information has been received from the predetermined number of attachment devices 10, the determination unit 22 determines whether the delivery is a flyer for each piece of posting information data received in S21, as follows: The type of delivery is determined. First, it is determined whether or not the posting time of the data is within a preset range based on the posting time of any data in the posting information received from the other attachment device 10 (S25). If it is determined that the posting time of the data is within the range (YES in S25), then the weight of the data is preset based on the weight of the data that is the determination criterion of the range. It is determined whether it is within the range (S26). When it is determined that the weight of the data is within the range (YES in S26), it is determined that the delivery item related to the data is a flyer (S27).

  Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery item is a flyer is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21. Subsequently, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information (S28). In this case, the process is completed.

  When it is determined that the posting time of the data is not within the range (NO in S25), or when it is determined that the weight of the data is not within the range (NO in S26), the delivery related to the data It is determined that the item is another delivery item (S29). Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery item is other delivery items is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21. Subsequently, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information (S30). In this case, the process is completed.

  The type determination processing (S25 to S30) is performed for all data of the posting information for each piece of posting information data. The transmission of the information indicating the type determination result (S28, S30) may be performed collectively after the type determination is performed for all the data of the posting information.

  Subsequently, the process (S23) when it is determined in S22 of FIG. 10 that the posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made (YES in S22) will be described using the flowchart of FIG. In this process, the determination unit 22 performs a type determination as to whether the delivery is a newspaper, a flyer, or other delivery for each piece of post information received in S21 as follows. Is called.

  In this process, the determination unit 22 determines whether or not the posting time and weight of the data are within the range of time and weight set in advance to determine the newspaper (S41). When it is determined that the posting time and weight of the data are within the range related to the newspaper (YES in S41), it is determined that the delivery item related to the data is a newspaper (S42). Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery is determined to be newspaper is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification unit 23.

In addition, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information. In this case, the process is completed.

  In S41, when it is determined that the posting time and weight of the data are not within the range related to the newspaper (NO in S41), the determination unit 22 then sets the type of the delivery item related to the data to another portable terminal. It is determined whether or not it has already been determined by 20 (S44). When the type of delivery related to the data has already been determined by the other portable terminal 20 (YES in S44), information indicating the type determination result by the other portable terminal 20 is transmitted from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21 and It is output to the user notification unit 23. Subsequently, the user notification unit 23 outputs information indicating the delivery time of the delivery item and the type of the delivery item according to the data of the posting information, and notifies the user of delivery of the delivery item (S45). In addition, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information. In this case, the process is completed.

  In S44, when the type of delivery related to the data has not been determined by another portable terminal 20 (NO in S44), the following processing is performed. This process differs depending on whether pattern A, pattern B, or pattern C. In the case of pattern A, it is determined whether or not the posting time of the data is within a preset range based on the posting time of any data of the posting information received from the other attachment device 10 ( S46). If it is determined that the posting time of the data is within the range (YES in S46), then the weight of the data is preset based on the weight of the data that is the determination criterion of the range. It is determined whether it is within the range (S47). When it is determined that the weight of the data is within the range (YES in S47), it is determined that the delivery item related to the data is a flyer (S48).

  Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery item is a flyer is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification unit 23.

Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery item is another delivery item is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification unit 23. Subsequently, the user notification unit 23 outputs information indicating the delivery time of the delivery and the type of the delivery according to the data of the posting information, and notifies the user of delivery of the delivery (S51). In addition, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information. In this case, the process is completed.

  In the case of pattern B or C after NO in S44, subsequently, the posting information received from the attachment device 10 other than the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made and the most recently received posting information is specified. For each piece of the specified posting information, the delivery is a flyer in the same manner as the determination for the posting information other than the attachment device 10 for which the connection setting has been made (similar to S25 to S27, S29). The type of delivery is determined (S52).

  If there is a delivery that is determined to be a flyer by this type determination, then the posting time and weight of the data of the posting information to be determined are based on the posting time of the data related to the delivery determined to be a flyer. It is determined whether or not it is within a preset range (S53). When it is determined that the posting time and weight of the data are within the range (YES in S53), it is determined that the delivery item related to the data is a flyer (S48). Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery item is a flyer is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification unit 23. Subsequently, the user notification unit 23 outputs information indicating the delivery time of the delivery item and the type of the delivery item according to the data of the posting information, and notifies the user of delivery of the delivery item (S49). In addition, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information. In this case, the process is completed.

  In S52, when there is no posting information received most recently, or when the reception time of the specified posting information is earlier than the time set in advance from the present time, the delivery item related to the data is other (S50). If there is no delivery determined to be a flyer in S52, it is determined that the delivery related to the data is another delivery (S50). If it is determined in S53 that the posting time and weight of the data are not within the range (NO in S53), it is determined that the delivery related to the data is another delivery (S50). Information indicating the type determination result, that is, information indicating that the type of the delivery item is another delivery item is output from the determination unit 22 to the transmission / reception unit 21 and the user notification unit 23. Subsequently, the user notification unit 23 outputs information indicating the delivery time of the delivery and the type of the delivery according to the data of the posting information, and notifies the user of delivery of the delivery (S51). In addition, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits information indicating the type determination result to the attachment device 10 that is the transmission source of the posting information. In this case, the process is completed.

  The type determination processing (S41 to S53) is performed for all data of the posting information for each piece of posting information data. The output and transmission (S43, S45, S49, S51) of the information indicating the type determination result may be performed collectively after the type determination is performed for all data of the posting information. The above is the processing in the mobile terminal 20.

  Subsequently, an example of delivery type determination based on posting information will be shown using FIG. As shown in FIG. 12A, in the situation where the mailbox 2 provided in the apartment house is provided, the posting information was obtained from the attachment device 10 (user-owned device) for which connection setting was made by the mobile terminal 20. Shall. At that time, posting information is also obtained from the attachment device 10 (neighboring user-owned device 1, neighboring user-owned device 2) that has not been set for connection.

  The data of 5:05 is determined to be a newspaper because the posting time and weight are within the range of time and weight set in advance for determining the newspaper. The 14:32 data is judged to be a flyer because there are a plurality of items similar to the posting time and weight. The 15:40 data is judged to be other deliverables because there is nothing similar to the posting time and weight. Further, as described above, in the mobile terminal 20, the type of delivery item is also determined for the posting information of the attachment device 10 other than the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made. As a result of determining the type of delivery in this way, for example, as shown in FIG. 12B, information is obtained in which the number of times of type determination for each type of delivery in each attachment device 10 is counted.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the type of delivery is determined based on the weight of the delivery delivered to the mailbox 2 and the delivery time when the delivery was delivered. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to notify the user according to the type of delivery item. In particular, according to the present embodiment, since the type of the delivery item can be determined based on the weight of the delivery item and the posting time, this can be realized with a simple configuration. Therefore, for example, the type of delivery can be determined without the need to install a large and large apparatus such as an X-ray apparatus in the mailbox 2.

  Moreover, it is good also as judging the classification of a mail based on the posting information of the some mailbox 2 like this embodiment. According to this configuration, as shown in the present embodiment, for example, it is possible to appropriately determine a delivery that is received at the same timing by a plurality of mailboxes 2 such as leaflets. That is, according to this configuration, it is possible to more accurately determine the type of delivery item.

  Moreover, it is good also as judging the classification of a delivery based on the judgment rule according to the mailbox 2 where the delivery of the judgment object of a classification was received like this embodiment. According to this configuration, as shown in the present embodiment, for example, the type of delivery can be determined according to whether or not the posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made. For example, for newspapers, the posting time may be different for each house (for example, each newspaper being taken), so that more accurate determination can be made by making determinations with each user's mobile terminal 20 as described above. Become. Further, as described above, more accurate determination can be made regarding the leaflet by making a determination according to whether or not it is posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made.

  This also makes it possible to determine the type of delivery item when, for example, posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made is acquired by the mobile terminal 20 of another user. Accordingly, even when the mobile terminal 20 cannot acquire the posting information of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made, the type of delivery can be determined, and the type of delivery can be determined reliably and promptly.

  Further, as described above, it may be determined whether or not to output information according to the delivery type determination result. For example, in the case of a leaflet, notification to the user may not be performed. According to this configuration, it is possible to perform notification to an appropriate user, for example, notification only when necessary.

  Moreover, it is good also as comprising the delivery information notification system 1 as the thing provided with the attachment device 10 and the portable terminal 20 like this embodiment. According to this configuration, since the type determination and notification are usually performed by the mobile terminal 20 carried by the user, the user can be notified promptly and appropriately. Moreover, by setting it as the structure which performs near field communication between the attachment device 10 and the portable terminal 20, it can implement | achieve cheaply compared with the structure which makes all the attachment devices 10 perform mobile communication, for example. . Therefore, according to this configuration, the present invention can be more reliably realized. However, transmission / reception of information may be performed by a method other than short-range wireless communication, for example, mobile communication.

  The delivery information notification system 1 may be configured not to include the attachment device 10 as long as it can acquire information indicating the weight of the delivery and the reception time and determine the type of delivery. That is, the delivery information notification system 1 may include only the mobile terminal 20.

  In the above-described embodiment, if the mobile terminal 20 cannot acquire the posting information by the short-range wireless communication from the attachment device 10 in which the connection setting is made, the type determination and the notification to the user are not performed. Therefore, information indicating the type of delivery item may be transmitted and received between the mobile terminals 20. For example, specifically, the following configuration can be taken.

  When the determination unit 22 makes a type determination for post information other than the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made (when the processing of S24 to S30 in FIG. 10 is performed), the transmission / reception unit 21 displays the type determination result. The information shown is transmitted to another mobile terminal 20 by short-range wireless communication. In this case, the transmission / reception unit 21 transmits by broadcast so that it can be received by any (unspecified number of) portable terminals 20. For example, it is transmitted by advertising BLE. When transmitting information indicating the type determination result, the device number of the attachment device 10 is added to the information to be transmitted so that the portable device 20 on the receiving side can identify the attachment device 10 related to the type determination result ( Send them together). The transmission of the information is repeatedly performed, for example, for a predetermined time.

  On the other hand, the transmission / reception unit 21 receives information indicating the type determination result transmitted from another mobile terminal 20 as described above. The transmission / reception unit 21 outputs information indicating the received type determination result to the determination unit 22. The determination unit 22 compares the device number added to the received type determination result with the device number of the attachment device 10 for which connection setting has been made, and if they match, information indicating the type determination result is displayed. Output to the user notification unit 23. The user notification unit 23 notifies the user based on the information indicating the type determination result as in the above-described embodiment.

  Note that transmission / reception of information indicating the type of delivery between the mobile terminals 20 described above may be performed only between the mobile terminals 20 of the user of the apartment house, that is, only between the mobile terminals 20 set in the pattern A. Good.

  Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 13, one mobile terminal 20 is located inside the house 3, and the other mobile terminal 20 is located outside the house 3 (for example, a hallway of an apartment house). If so, short-range wireless communication radio waves may not reach each other. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 13, a repeater (repeater, radio amplifier, BLE device) 30 for short-range wireless communication is provided at the entrance door of the house 3, and the portable terminal 20 is located inside and outside the house 3. In this case, short-range wireless communication with each other may be performed.

  Subsequently, a delivery information notification program for causing a computer to execute the above-described series of delivery information notification system 1 will be described.
