Description

  The present invention relates to a taxi left-behind prevention system for not forgetting luggage such as a suitcase, a carry bag or a large baggage stored in a storage section such as a taxi trunk or a luggage compartment when using a taxi. .

  Conventionally, when getting on a taxi, baggage such as a suitcase, a carry bag or a large baggage of a taxi user is sometimes stored in the trunk of the taxi. When the passenger gets off, the taxi clerk opens the trunk, so that the taxi user can remove his / her baggage from the trunk by himself or with the help of the taxi clerk.

  However, when getting off, the taxi user and the taxi crew may both forget that their baggage was stored in the trunk. In particular, when taking a taxi at a hotel or the like, for example, a bellboy or the like sometimes stores the taxi user's baggage in the trunk, and the baggage is easily forgotten in the trunk.

  In this case, even if the taxi user or the taxi crew notices that they later forgot their baggage, it is difficult to contact each other. For example, a taxi user can contact the taxi if he / she has received a taxi fee receipt, etc., but if not, he / she can trace the memory and remember the taxi company to which the taxi belongs. It takes a lot of effort and time to find lost items. On the other hand, if the taxi crew notices something left in the trunk of the taxi user's baggage, it is almost impossible to contact the taxi user directly.

  Therefore, in order to prevent forgotten things for taxi passengers, we provide customer service education for taxi crews and thoroughly ask taxi users when getting off. In addition, some taxi companies are trying to devise a display tag such as “trunk” on the taxi terminal that is operated when the taxi user's baggage is stored in the trunk. is there.

  On the other hand, Patent Document 1 discloses a mobile communication system that can immediately return a forgotten thing to a user in connection with a vehicle allocation method using GPS. In this mobile communication system, when a taxi crew finds a taxi user's forgotten thing in the cabin, the taxi crew registers the forgotten thing and notifies the taxi user's usage history. By notifying the taxi user of the lost item, the lost item can be returned to the taxi user more quickly.

  Further, Patent Document 2 discloses an in-vehicle left-behind warning system that warns a passenger of a vehicle that the mobile terminal device is left behind in the vehicle and reduces left-behind items in the mobile terminal device. This is not limited to taxis, but when processing after the vehicle stops, such as opening / closing a car door or inserting / removing an engine key, the navigation device acquires vibration information from the mobile terminal device and misplaces the mobile terminal device. Is detected and a warning sound is generated from the speaker or a warning is displayed on the display unit to notify the passenger that the portable terminal device has been left behind.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-245591 JP 2009-020731 A

  However, in Patent Document 1, it is necessary for a taxi crew to discover a taxi user's forgotten items in the passenger compartment and register them manually. Sometimes it is difficult to discover immediately. In addition, when a taxi user notices something left behind, it is necessary to contact the taxi company or the like to which the reserved taxi belongs, and it takes time to return the left item.

  Further, in Patent Document 2, it is limited to portable terminal devices having a vibration function as forgotten items, and it is difficult to find forgotten items in the case of forgotten items (portable terminal devices) stored in a storage unit such as a trunk. Become.

  In this way, when the taxi user's baggage is stored in the taxi storage unit, the baggage stored in the storage unit is not visible when getting off, so it is easy to forget to leave the baggage. At present, no measures have been taken to prevent misplacement of baggage.

  In view of the above points, the present invention prevents taxi items from being forgotten when leaving a suitcase, a carry bag, a large baggage, etc. stored in a storage part such as a trunk of a taxi or a luggage compartment when using a taxi. The purpose is to provide a system.

  According to the first configuration of the present invention, the above object is achieved by a taxi management unit that is connected to a taxi terminal provided in a taxi and transmits / receives various information to / from the taxi terminal; And a storage detection unit that detects whether the taxi user's baggage is stored in the taxi storage unit when boarding, and sends a storage detection signal to the taxi terminal. When the charge check process is started, if a storage detection signal with storage is received from the storage detection unit, a baggage storage warning signal is generated, and the taxi terminal warns that the baggage is stored by the baggage storage warning signal. Achieved by a taxi baggage forgetting prevention system, which is a feature.

According to the above configuration, when a taxi user uses a taxi, when the taxi user stores baggage in a taxi storage unit such as a trunk and closes the storage unit, the storage detection unit is connected to the taxi user. The baggage storage is detected and a storage detection signal is sent to the taxi terminal. Then, when the taxi runs to the taxi user's destination and the taxi arrives at the destination, the taxi terminal starts the fare adjustment process by the operation of the taxi crew when the taxi user gets off. Simultaneously with the start of the charge settlement process, the taxi terminal generates a baggage storage warning signal in the case of a storage detection signal with storage based on a storage detection signal from the storage detection unit at that time. As a result, the taxi terminal issues a warning of baggage storage based on the baggage storage warning signal.
In this way, when baggage is stored in the taxi storage unit when the taxi user gets off, the taxi terminal warns that the baggage is stored. Since the user notices baggage storage, misplacement of the taxi user's baggage in the storage unit is effectively prevented.

  In the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system according to the present invention, preferably, the taxi management unit is further connected to a user terminal used by a taxi user and transmits / receives various information to / from the user terminal, and the taxi terminal manages the baggage storage warning signal for taxi management. Is transmitted to the user terminal of the taxi user via the section, and the user terminal issues a warning of baggage storage by a baggage storage warning signal.

  According to this configuration, for example, when the taxi management unit performs a dispatch using the user terminal, the taxi terminal is in a state in which it can communicate with the user terminal of the taxi user. A storage warning signal is transmitted to the user terminal of the taxi user via the taxi manager. As a result, not only a warning from the taxi terminal but also a taxi user's user terminal can be warned of baggage storage, thus preventing the taxi user's baggage from being misplaced in the taxi storage unit even more reliably. It becomes possible to do.

  According to the second configuration of the present invention, the above object is a taxi that is connected to a taxi terminal provided in an unmanned taxi and a user terminal used by a taxi user, and transmits and receives various information between the taxi terminal and the user terminal. A management unit and a storage detection unit that detects whether or not a taxi user's baggage is stored in a storage unit of an unmanned taxi and sends a storage detection signal to the taxi terminal when the taxi user gets in the taxi When the taxi terminal starts the fare adjustment process when the taxi user gets off, the baggage storage warning signal is generated when the storage detection signal with storage is received from the storage detection unit, and the taxi terminal A baggage storage warning signal is issued to warn of baggage storage, and the baggage storage warning signal is sent via the taxi manager. Transmitted to the user terminal of the taxi user, user terminal, characterized in that a warning to the effect that the baggage accommodation by the baggage receiving warning signal is accomplished by taxi baggage forgetting prevention system.

According to this configuration, when a taxi user uses an unmanned taxi, if the taxi user stores baggage in the unmanned taxi storage unit and closes the storage unit, the storage detection unit stores the taxi user baggage in the storage unit. Is detected and a storage detection signal is sent to the taxi terminal. When the unmanned taxi runs to the taxi user's destination and arrives at the destination, the taxi terminal starts the fee settlement process when the taxi user gets off. Simultaneously with the start of the charge settlement process, the taxi terminal generates a baggage storage warning signal in the case of a storage detection signal with storage based on the storage detection signal from the storage detection unit at that time. Accordingly, the taxi terminal issues a warning indicating that the baggage is stored based on the baggage storage warning signal, and transmits the baggage storage warning signal to the user terminal of the taxi user via the taxi management unit. Therefore, taxi users will receive not only warnings from taxi terminals but also warnings of baggage storage from their user terminals, and even more reliably prevent misplacement of baggage in unmanned taxi storage units. Can do.
In this way, when baggage is stored in the unmanned taxi storage unit when the taxi user gets off, the taxi terminal and the user terminal both warn of baggage storage. Since the user notices that the baggage is securely stored in the storage section of the unmanned taxi, misplacement of the taxi user's baggage in the storage section is effectively prevented.

In the taxi baggage forgotten object prevention system according to the present invention, preferably, after the taxi terminal generates a baggage storage warning signal, it receives a storage detection signal with storage when a door opening signal is sent from the taxi body side. A baggage storage warning signal is generated again and transmitted to the user terminal of the taxi user via the taxi management unit, and the user terminal again warns that the baggage is stored by the baggage storage warning signal.
According to this configuration, when the taxi user opens the door without noticing the warning of baggage storage from the taxi terminal and the user terminal and goes out of the vehicle, the taxi terminal and the user terminal again indicate baggage storage. Give a warning. Thus, by giving two warnings to the taxi crew and the taxi user, it is possible to prevent the taxi user's baggage from being left in the taxi storage unit even more reliably.

The taxi baggage forgotten object prevention system according to the present invention preferably receives a storage detection signal with storage when the taxi terminal generates a second baggage storage warning signal and receives a door closing signal from the taxi. Then, the taxi user's baggage is left as a forgotten item and the forgotten item information necessary for contacting the taxi user is generated and transmitted to the user terminal via the taxi management unit, and the forgotten item information is displayed on the display unit. The user terminal displays the forgotten item information based on the forgotten item information.
According to this configuration, when the taxi user goes out of the vehicle and the door is closed despite the two warnings, the taxi terminal generates the forgotten information as the forgotten baggage stored in the storage unit. And transmitted to the user terminal of the taxi user via the taxi management unit. Thereby, the forgotten item information is displayed on the display unit of the user terminal of the taxi user, the taxi user refers to the forgotten item information displayed on the display unit, and contacts the taxi or the affiliated company etc. It becomes possible to get back.

In the taxi baggage forgotten object prevention system according to the present invention, preferably, a warning indicating baggage storage at the taxi terminal or the user terminal is displayed on the display unit of the terminal, or inside or outside the taxi. This is a display indicating baggage storage by a display unit provided separately.
According to this configuration, as a warning indicating baggage storage, a taxi terminal or user terminal, and a display unit separately provided on the inside or outside of the taxi, a display indicating baggage storage is performed. By visually recognizing these displays, the user can recognize that the taxi user's baggage is securely stored in the taxi storage unit, and can prevent misplacement of the baggage. In particular, by displaying the indication of baggage storage on the display unit provided outside the vehicle, even if it is a hearing-impaired person, for example, by visually checking the display on the display unit outside the vehicle, it is possible to prevent misplacement of baggage. can do.

  In the taxi baggage forgotten object prevention system according to the present invention, preferably, a warning indicating baggage storage at the taxi terminal or the user terminal is generated by a warning sound generated by the warning sound generation unit of the terminal, or inside or outside the taxi. This is the generation of a warning sound by a warning sound generator provided separately. According to this configuration, a warning sound is generated at the taxi terminal or the user terminal and a warning sound generating unit provided separately inside or outside the taxi as a warning of baggage storage. By listening to these warning sounds, it is possible to reliably recognize that the taxi user's baggage is stored in the taxi storage unit, and to prevent misplacement of the baggage.

  As described above, according to the present invention, a taxi forgotten item for not leaving a suitcase, a carry bag, a large baggage, etc. stored in a storage part such as a trunk of a taxi or a luggage compartment when a taxi is used when getting off. A prevention system can be provided.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the embodiments shown in the drawings.
(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 shows the overall configuration of a first embodiment of a taxi baggage forgetting prevention system according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 10 includes a taxi management unit 20, a taxi 30, and a taxi user 40.

  The taxi management unit 20 is connected to a taxi terminal 31 used by a taxi crew member and a user terminal 41 possessed by a taxi user 40 in a normal taxi 30 driven by an existing taxi crew member. It is comprised so that various information may be transmitted / received between.

  Specifically, the taxi management unit 20 includes a taxi terminal 31 of each taxi 30 and a user terminal 41 of each taxi user 40 via a public line network (hereinafter referred to as a network) 50 such as Wi-Fi or a mobile phone line. It is connected to the.

The taxi terminal 31 is configured, for example, by installing a dedicated application on a dedicated information communication terminal device or a commercially available information communication terminal device such as a smartphone or a tablet terminal, and the taxi terminal 31 is connected to the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50. Connected.
The taxi terminal 31 is also configured by adding a function for preventing forgetting taxi baggage to an information communication terminal device dedicated for taxi dispatch or a commercially available information communication terminal installed with a taxi dispatch application by using an additional application or the like. Can be done.
Further, the taxi terminal 31 has a known charging function as a normal taxi terminal, and charges when the passenger gets on (actual vehicle), pays out when the passenger gets off, and the passenger gets on the board. No charge is made when the vehicle is not (empty).

Further, as shown in more detail in FIG. 2, the taxi terminal 31 is connected to an in-vehicle computer 32 mounted on the vehicle body of the taxi 30. From the in-vehicle computer 32, a detection signal (hereinafter referred to as a trunk signal) of the trunk open / close state is connected. ) 32a and a detection signal (hereinafter referred to as a door signal) 32b of an open / closed state of a door (especially a passenger door).
Here, using the trunk switch 33 and the door switch 34 provided in the opening / closing portions of the trunk 30a and the door 30b, these switches 33 and 34 are turned on or off when the trunk 30a and the door 30b are opened, respectively. Thus, the taxi terminal 31 can detect the open / closed state of the trunk 30a and the door 30b based on the trunk signal 32a and the door signal 32b according to the conduction state of the switches 33 and 34 via the in-vehicle computer 32.
When the taxi terminal 31 becomes an actual vehicle after the trunk 30a is opened and closed, it is assumed that the baggage of the taxi user 40 is stored in the trunk 30a and the storage flag is raised, and the trunk 30a When opened and closed, the storage flag is lowered assuming that the baggage has been removed from the trunk 30a.
The trunk signal 32a is turned on or off when a taxi crew member of the taxi 30 opens the trunk 30a by operating a trunk opening lever or a trunk opening switch in the vehicle.

Furthermore, the taxi terminal 31 includes a display unit 35 for displaying various information.
The detection function of the trunk open / close state and the door open / close state as well as the in-vehicle computer 32, the trunk switch 33, and the door switch 34 can be used as they are in the vehicle body of the taxi 30 as they are.

  Similarly, the user terminal 41 may be a so-called vehicle dispatcher having a function for the system by installing a dedicated application of the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 10 on a commercially available information communication terminal device, for example, a smartphone or a tablet terminal. It is configured by installing an application, and is connected to the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50.

  Here, the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 installs a dispatch application for a taxi dispatch system and inputs passenger information 41a. Vehicle allocation reservation information 42 including passenger information 41 a registered in advance and passenger position information 41 b based on GPS data or the like is created, and the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 is transmitted to the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50. The taxi allocation system for the taxi allocation system may be integrated with the taxi forgotten object prevention system application, or may be installed in the user terminal 41 separately.

  Here, the taxi management unit 20 is configured to have a function related to vehicle allocation in the present embodiment. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the taxi management unit 20 includes a reception unit 21 that accepts a reservation for dispatching a taxi, and a processing unit 22 that arranges the dispatch of the taxi 30 based on the dispatching reservation accepted by the reception unit 21. In the processing unit 22, the function of the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 10 is also realized.

  The reception unit 21 receives the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 directly from the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 or creates the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 corresponding to the vehicle allocation reservation by direct telephone contact from the taxi user 40, The dispatch information 42 is sent to the processing unit 22.

  The processing unit 22 selects an empty taxi 30 close to the boarding position of the taxi user 40 based on the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 from the reception unit 21 or manually by the operator, and the taxi terminal 31 of the taxi 30 is selected. On the other hand, the allocation of the taxi 30 is arranged by transmitting the allocation information 42 of the taxi user 40 via the network 50 or by calling communication with the taxi crew of the taxi 30. At this time, the taxi terminal 31 of the taxi 30 displays the passenger information 41 a and the boarding position of the taxi 30 on the display unit 35 based on the dispatch reservation information 42.

  Further, the taxi terminal 31 has a function as the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 10 according to the present invention. That is, the taxi terminal 31 stores the baggage of the taxi user 40 in the trunk 30a when the trunk 30a is closed after the trunk 30a is opened and a passenger is put on the vehicle based on the trunk signal 32a. Raise the storage flag as a thing.

The taxi terminal 31 generates a baggage storage warning signal 31a if the storage flag is set when the taxi fare adjustment process is started by the operation of the taxi crew when the taxi user 40 gets off.
Based on the baggage storage warning signal 31a, the taxi terminal 31 displays a warning indicating that the baggage is stored on the display unit, and if necessary, operates a sounding body built in the taxi terminal 31 to operate the baggage. A warning sound indicating the storage is generated. At the same time, the taxi terminal 31 transmits the baggage storage warning signal 31 a to the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 via the network 50 and further via the taxi management unit 20.
Thereby, the user terminal 41 displays a warning indicating that the baggage is stored on the display unit based on the baggage storage warning signal 31a, and operates a sounding body built in the user terminal 41 if necessary. Alarm for baggage storage.

When the taxi terminal 31 detects that the baggage is stored and generates a warning sound based on the baggage storage warning signal 31a and detects that the door 30b is opened based on the door signal 32b, the taxi storage warning signal 31a is stopped and the second baggage storage warning signal 31b is generated.
The taxi terminal 31 displays a warning indicating that the baggage is stored on the display unit 35 based on the second baggage storage warning signal 31b, and operates a sounding body built in the taxi terminal 31 to store the baggage. Generate a warning sound.
In this case, the warning display indicating baggage storage may be performed on a display unit separately provided inside or outside the taxi 30, or an existing hazard lamp may be blinked. Similarly, a warning sound for baggage storage may be generated by a warning sound generation unit provided separately inside or outside the taxi 30. In particular, when warning display and / or warning sound generation is performed by the display unit and / or the warning sound generation unit provided outside the taxi 30, it is more effective for the taxi user 40 who gets out of the taxi 30 out of the vehicle. A warning can be made.

At the same time, the taxi terminal 31 transmits a second baggage storage warning signal 31b to the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 via the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50. As a result, the user terminal 41 displays a warning indicating baggage storage on the display unit based on the second baggage storage warning signal 31b, and operates the sounding body built in the user terminal 41 to store the baggage. Generate a warning sound.
Here, the warning display on the display unit of the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 and the warning sound generation by the sounding body may be the same as or different from the warning display and warning sound generation by the baggage storage warning signal 31a. A warning display and a warning sound may be generated.

  The taxi terminal 31 performs a trunk based on the trunk signal 32a when the warning display and the warning sound indicating the baggage storage are generated based on the baggage storage warning signal 31a or the second baggage storage warning signal 31b. When it is detected that the bag 30a has been released, it is determined that the baggage in the trunk 30a has been taken out, the storage flag is lowered, and the baggage storage warning signal 31a or the second baggage storage warning signal 31b is stopped. Thereby, the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 stop generating the warning display or the warning sound.

Furthermore, the taxi terminal 31 detects that the door 30b has been closed based on the door signal 32b, while performing a warning display and a warning sound for baggage storage by the second baggage storage warning signal 31b. The taxi user 40 determines that the vehicle has already got off, stops the second baggage storage warning signal 31b, stops the baggage storage warning display and the warning sound, and generates the forgotten item information 31c. The information is transmitted to the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 via the taxi management unit 20.
The forgotten item information 31c includes information necessary for contacting the taxi user 40 regarding the forgotten item, such as the taxi user 40's boarding location, boarding time, getting-off location and getting-off time, and taxi user 40 passenger information 41a and the taxi user 40 Includes how to contact taxi 30.
Thereby, the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 displays the forgotten item information on the display unit based on the received forgotten item information 31c. Therefore, the taxi user 40 recognizes the misplacement of the baggage in the storage unit of the taxi 30 by visually recognizing the display of the forgotten item information on the display unit of his user terminal 41, and obtains information for recovering the lost item. Can do.

When the taxi user 40 gets on the so-called sink while the taxi 30 is running empty, the taxi terminal 31 is not connected to the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 via the network 50. The storage warning signal 31a, the second baggage storage warning signal 31b, and the forgotten item information 31c are transmitted to the taxi management unit 20, but are not transmitted to the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40. Therefore, the warning display or warning sound for baggage storage is performed only at the taxi terminal 31.
Even in such a case, when the taxi user 40 arbitrarily connects his user terminal 41 to the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50, the above-described baggage storage warning signal 31a, second baggage storage The warning signal 31b and the forgotten item information 31c are transmitted from the taxi management unit 20 to the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40. This reliably prevents the baggage of the taxi user 40 from being left behind in the trunk 30a of the taxi 30.

The taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 10 according to the present invention is configured as described above, and performs processing for preventing taxi baggage forgetting as follows.
First, in order to use the taxi dispatch system including the taxi baggage forgotten article prevention system 10, the taxi user 40 downloads and installs a vehicle dispatch application and a taxi baggage forgotten article preventive system application on his user terminal 41, and passenger information Enter 41a.

When the taxi user 40 desires to use the taxi 30 (reserve allocation), the taxi user 40 activates the above-described allocation application on the user terminal 41.
When the taxi user 40 performs a reservation operation on the user terminal 41, the user terminal 41 creates vehicle allocation reservation information 42 including passenger information 41a and passenger position information 41b indicating the current position of the passenger based on GPS data. The dispatch information 42 is transmitted to the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50.

In response to this, the reception unit 21 of the taxi management unit 20 sends the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 to the control unit 22, and the control unit 22 makes a taxi of an empty vehicle close to the current position of the taxi user 40 based on the vehicle allocation reservation information 42. The boarding position and passenger information 41a are transmitted via the network 50 to the selected taxi 30.
At this time, the taxi terminal 31 of the taxi 30 displays the passenger current position (the taxi boarding position) based on the passenger information 41a and the passenger position information 41b on the display unit.

The operation of storing the baggage in the trunk 30a of the taxi 30 when the taxi user 40 gets on the taxi 30 will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, in step ST1, when the taxi user 40 gets his / her baggage in the trunk 30a of the taxi 30 when getting on, the taxi terminal 31 detects the opening / closing of the trunk 30a by the trunk signal 33.
Subsequently, in step ST2, the taxi user 40 gets into the taxi 30, and when the taxi 30 becomes a real vehicle and starts traveling to the destination of the taxi user 40, in step ST3, the taxi terminal 31 loads the baggage of the taxi user 40. Is stored in the trunk 30 a of the taxi 30. Thereby, the taxi 30 performs so-called rental to the destination of the taxi user 40.

When the taxi 30 arrives at the destination of the taxi user 40, in step ST4, the taxi terminal 31 starts the settlement process by the operation of the taxi crew. By starting this checkout process, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the storage flag is set in step ST5. If the storage flag is not set, the taxi user 40's baggage is placed in the trunk 30a of the taxi 30. The taxi baggage forgetting prevention process is terminated as not stored.
On the other hand, if the storage flag is set in step ST5, the taxi terminal 31 warns that the baggage of the taxi user 40 is still stored in the trunk 30a of the taxi 30 in step ST6. A signal 31a is generated, and on the basis of the baggage storage warning signal 31a, a warning display and a warning sound for baggage storage are generated at the taxi terminal 31 and user terminal 41, respectively.

Subsequently, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the storage flag is set again in step ST7. If the storage flag is not set, the baggage of the taxi user 40 is taken out from the trunk 30a of the taxi 30. As a matter of fact, the taxi baggage forgetting prevention process is terminated.
On the other hand, when the storage flag is set in step ST7, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the door signal 32b is “open” in step ST8, and the door signal 32b is not “open”. In that case, the process returns to step ST7 again.
When the trunk 30a of the taxi 30 is opened in this state, the taxi terminal 31 lowers the storage flag on the assumption that the baggage of the taxi user 40 in the trunk 30a has been taken out. Accordingly, since the storage flag is not raised in step ST7, the taxi terminal 31 stops the baggage storage warning signal 31a, thereby stopping the warning display and the warning sound of baggage storage at the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41. The taxi baggage forgotten prevention process ends.

  If the door signal 32b is “open” in step ST8, the taxi terminal 31 holds the baggage of the taxi user 40 in the trunk 30 of the taxi 30 in step ST9. The baggage storage warning signal 31a is stopped and the second baggage storage warning signal 31b is generated, and the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 based on the second baggage storage warning signal 31b A warning display and a warning sound for baggage storage are generated.

Subsequently, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the storage flag is set again in step ST10. If the storage flag is not set, the baggage of the taxi user 40 is taken out from the trunk 30a of the taxi 30. As a matter of fact, the taxi baggage forgetting prevention process is terminated.
On the other hand, if the storage flag is set in step ST10, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether the door signal 32b is “closed” in step ST11, and the door signal 32b is not “closed”. In that case, the process returns to step ST10 again. In this state, when the trunk 30a of the taxi 30 is opened, the taxi terminal 31 lowers the storage flag on the assumption that the baggage of the taxi user 40 in the trunk 30a has been taken out. Accordingly, since the storage flag is not set in step ST10, the taxi terminal 31 stops the second baggage storage warning signal 31b, and accordingly, a warning display and a warning sound for baggage storage at the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 are generated. Will be canceled and the taxi baggage prevention process will end.

When the door signal 32b is “closed” in step ST11, the taxi terminal 31 determines that the taxi user 40 gets off and the door 30b is closed while baggage is stored in the trunk 30a. In step ST12, the second baggage storage warning signal 31b is stopped to generate forgotten item information 31c, and in step ST13, the storage flag is lowered. As a result, the warning display and the warning sound for baggage storage are stopped in the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 based on the forgotten item information 31c, respectively, and the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 are displayed in step ST14. Based on the lost item information 31c, the lost item information is displayed on the display unit.
Here, the forgotten item information 31 c is also transmitted to the taxi management unit 20 via the network 50, and the processing unit 22 of the taxi management unit 20 responds to subsequent inquiries from the taxi user 40. Therefore, even if the taxi user 40 gets off and runs away, the taxi user 40 can contact the taxi 30 or the taxi management unit 20 by visually checking the forgotten item information 31c of his user terminal 41.

It is comprised from the vehicle allocation control part 72 which performs vehicle allocation corresponding to the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 from the user terminal 41. FIG.

The operation control unit 71 has a well-known configuration, and remotely monitors the vehicle body condition and surrounding conditions of the unmanned taxi 80 based on detection signals from various sensors necessary for unmanned automatic driving mounted on the unmanned taxi 80. The unmanned taxi 80 is remotely operated, and can safely run while avoiding danger while complying with laws and regulations along a predetermined track set in advance. At that time, the operation control unit 71 moves the empty unmanned taxi 80 to the boarding position of the taxi user 40 in accordance with the boarding position and the getting-off position of the dispatching reservation information 42 sent from the dispatching control unit 72. After the taxi user 40 is boarded at the position, the taxi user 40 is moved to the getting-off position of the taxi user 40 and the taxi user 40 is getting off at the getting-off position, thereby providing an unmanned taxi service.
At that time, if the taxi user 40 has a large baggage, the taxi user 40 opens the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80, stores the baggage in the storage unit 80a, and then closes the storage unit 80a, thereby An unmanned taxi 80 can be boarded with baggage stored in 80a.

  Here, the user terminal 41 of the taxi user 40 installs a vehicle dispatch application including the function of the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 60 and inputs the passenger information 41a. When the destination location to be entered is input, the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 including passenger information 41a registered in advance in the taxi management unit 70, passenger location information 41b based on GPS data and the like and destination location information 41c is created. 42 is transmitted to the taxi management unit 70 via the network 50.

  When the vehicle allocation control unit 72 of the taxi management unit 70 receives the vehicle allocation reservation information 42 transmitted from the taxi user 40, the vehicle allocation control unit 72 selects an empty unmanned taxi 80 near the boarding position of the taxi user 40 from the passenger location information 41 b. Then, the dispatching reservation information 42 is transmitted via the network 50 to the taxi terminal 31 mounted on the selected unmanned taxi 80.

  Further, the operation control unit 71 of the taxi management unit 70 has a function for preventing forgetting taxi baggage similar to the processing unit 22 of the taxi management unit 20 in the taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 10 of FIG.

  As shown in detail in FIG. 5, the taxi terminal 31 of the unmanned taxi 80 is connected to the in-vehicle computer 32 mounted on the vehicle body of the unmanned taxi 80, and the detection signal of the open / close state of the storage unit 80 a is received from the in-vehicle computer 32. A storage unit signal 82 and a door signal 83 which is a detection signal of the door open / close state are input. These detection signals 82 and 83 are input to the taxi terminal 31 by turning on or off a storage switch 84 and a door switch 85 attached to the door 80b, respectively, as a storage detection part attached to the storage part 80a of the unmanned taxi 80. Is done.

The taxi baggage forgetting prevention system 60 is configured as described above, and performs processing for preventing taxi baggage forgetting as follows.
First, in order to use the taxi dispatch system including the taxi baggage forgotten prevention system 60, the taxi user 40 downloads and installs a vehicle dispatch application and a taxi baggage forgotten article preventive system application on his user terminal 41, and passenger information Enter 41a.

  When the taxi user 40 wishes to use the unmanned taxi 80 (reservation for vehicle allocation), the taxi user 40 activates the vehicle allocation application described above on the user terminal 41. Then, when the taxi user 40 inputs the desired destination position at the user terminal 41, the user terminal 41 receives the passenger information 41a, the passenger position information 41b indicating the current passenger position based on GPS data and the like, and the dispatching reservation information including the destination position information 41c 42 is created, and this vehicle allocation reservation information 42 is transmitted to the taxi management unit 70 via the network 50.

  In response to this, the vehicle allocation control unit 72 of the taxi management unit 70 selects an empty unmanned taxi 80 close to the current position of the taxi user 40 based on the vehicle allocation reservation information 42, and vehicle allocation reservation information for the selected unmanned taxi 80. 42 is transmitted via the network 50. At this time, the taxi terminal 31 of the unmanned taxi 80 displays on its display the passenger current position (taxi boarding position) based on the passenger information 41a and the passenger position information 41b.

The operation when the taxi user 40 gets in the unmanned taxi 80 and stores his / her baggage in the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, at step ST21, the taxi user 40 himself opens the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 when getting on, stores baggage in the storage unit 80a, and closes the storage unit 80a. Thereby, the taxi terminal 31 detects the opening / closing of the storage unit 80a by the storage unit signal 82.
Subsequently, when the taxi user 40 gets into the unmanned taxi 80 in step ST22 and the unmanned taxi 80 becomes a real vehicle and starts traveling to the destination of the taxi user 40, the taxi terminal 31 takes the baggage of the taxi user 40 in step ST23. Is stored in the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80. Thereby, the unmanned taxi 80 performs so-called rental to the destination of the taxi user 40.

When the unmanned taxi 80 arrives at the destination of the taxi user 40, the taxi terminal 31 automatically starts the settlement process in step ST24.
By the start of this checkout process, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the storage flag is set in step ST25, and if the storage flag is not set, the taxi user 40's baggage is stored in the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80. The taxi baggage-forgetting prevention process is terminated, assuming that is not stored.
On the other hand, if the storage flag is set in step ST25, the taxi terminal 31 assumes that the baggage of the taxi user 40 is still stored in the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 in step ST26. A storage warning signal 31a is generated, and based on the baggage storage warning signal 31a, the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 display a warning indicating that the baggage is stored and a warning sound, respectively.

Subsequently, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the storage flag is set again in step ST27. If the storage flag is not set, the taxi user 40's baggage is taken out from the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80. As a result, the taxi baggage forgetting prevention process is terminated.
On the other hand, when the storage flag is set in step ST27, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the door signal 83 is “open” in step ST28, and the door signal 83 is not “open”. In that case, the process returns to step ST27 again.
In this state, when the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 is opened, the taxi terminal 31 lowers the storage flag on the assumption that the baggage of the taxi user 40 in the storage unit 80a has been taken out. Therefore, since the storage flag is not set in step ST27, the taxi terminal 31 stops the baggage storage warning signal 31a, and thereby the warning display and the warning sound of baggage storage in the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 are stopped. The taxi baggage forgotten prevention process ends.

  If the door signal 83 is “open” in step ST28, the taxi terminal 31 determines that the baggage of the taxi user 40 is still stored in the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 in step ST29. The baggage storage warning signal 31a is stopped as if the user 40 has gone out of the vehicle, a second baggage storage warning signal 31b is generated, and the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 are based on the second baggage storage warning signal 31b. A warning display and a warning sound for baggage storage are generated.

Subsequently, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the storage flag is set again in step ST30. If the storage flag is not set, the baggage of the taxi user 40 is taken out from the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80. As a result, the taxi baggage forgetting prevention process is terminated.
On the other hand, when the storage flag is set in step ST30, the taxi terminal 31 confirms whether or not the door signal 83 is “closed” in step ST31, and the door signal 83 is not “closed”. In that case, the process returns to step ST30 again.
In this state, when the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 is opened, the taxi terminal 31 lowers the storage flag on the assumption that the baggage of the taxi user 40 in the storage unit 80a has been taken out. Accordingly, since the storage flag is not raised in step ST30, the taxi terminal 31 stops the second baggage storage warning signal 31b, and accordingly, a warning display and a warning sound for baggage storage at the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 are generated. Will be canceled and the taxi baggage prevention process will end.

If the door signal 83 is “closed” in step ST31, the taxi terminal 31 determines that the taxi user 40 gets off and the door 80b is closed while the baggage is stored in the storage unit 80a. In step ST32, the second baggage storage warning signal 31b is stopped to generate the forgotten item information 31c, and the storage flag is lowered in step ST33.
As a result, on the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 based on the forgotten item information 31c, the warning display and the warning sound for baggage storage are stopped, and the user terminal 41 receives the forgotten item information 31c in step ST24. The forgotten item information is displayed on the display unit based on the above. Here, the forgotten item information 31c is also transmitted to the taxi management unit 70 via the network 50, and the dispatch control unit 72 of the taxi management unit 70 responds to the subsequent inquiries about the forgotten item from the taxi user 40.
Therefore, even if the unmanned taxi 80 that got off has run away, the taxi user 40 visually recognizes the forgotten item information 31c of the user terminal 41 and contacts the taxi management unit 70, thereby Baggage left in the 80 storage section 80a can be quickly retrieved.

  Thus, according to the taxi baggage forgetting prevention systems 10 and 60 according to the present invention, when the taxi user 40 stores his / her baggage in the trunk 30a or the storage unit 80a when using the taxi (manned taxi) 30 or the unmanned taxi 80, In addition, if the baggage remains stored in the trunk 30a or the storage unit 80a when getting off, a warning display and a warning sound are generated at the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41. The misplacement of baggage is reliably prevented.

The present invention can be implemented in various forms without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, whether the baggage of the taxi user 40 is stored in the trunk 30a of the taxi 30 or the storage unit 80a of the unmanned taxi 80 is determined by opening / closing the trunk switch 30a or the storage unit switch 84 serving as a storage detection unit. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the weight sensor provided on the floor surface of the trunk 30a or the storage unit 80a directly detects the presence or absence of baggage storage, the trunk 30a or Whether or not baggage is stored in the storage unit 80a may be directly detected by various sensors. Further, the inside of the trunk 30a or the storage unit 80a may be imaged by a monitoring camera, and the presence / absence of baggage storage may be detected by performing image processing on the imaging screen.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the taxi user 40 stores his / her baggage in the trunk 30a or the storage unit 80a of the taxi 30 has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the taxi user cannot be visually recognized by the taxi crew or the taxi user 40 when boarding. Obviously, the present invention can also be applied when baggage is stored in the trunk 20a or the storage unit 80a.

  In the above-described embodiment, warning display and warning sound are generated at both the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41 based on the baggage storage warning signal 31a. If the taxi user 40 is in the taxi 30 or the unmanned taxi 80 before the door 80b is opened, only the warning display may be performed.

  In the embodiment described above, the warning display and the warning sound generation by the baggage storage warning signal 31a or the second baggage storage warning signal 31b are performed at the taxi terminal 31 and the user terminal 41. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Furthermore, a warning display or a warning sound may be generated by a display unit or a warning sound generation unit separately provided inside or outside the taxi 30 or the unmanned taxi 80.
