Description

  The present invention relates to parking facilities for vehicles such as bicycles, motorcycles and automobiles, and temporary storage facilities for pets such as dogs and cats, which can be installed at low cost. The details of the pet temporary storage facility will be described later.

  In order to automate the temporary storage service of vehicles in the parking lot and to make the manager unattended, to save labor and reduce costs, it is necessary to provide a locking device in the parking device and a payment device for the usage fee Is required. This payment system is generally large and expensive to install.

  For example, a parking facility disclosed in JP-A-2005-180161 is provided with an operation panel as a settlement device. When a coin is inserted into the coin slot of this operation panel (a prepaid card can also be used instead of coin insertion), the balance is settled, and the parking lot number is designated by a numeric keypad, this information is transmitted to the control device, The control device confirms the settlement, confirms the parking lot number, energizes the solenoid of the locking device through a communication cable, opens the front wheels of the bicycles parked in the parking lot, and puts the bicycle in a state where the vehicle can be taken out. Note that the ticketing machine is for issuing a prepaid card, but other than that, it is possible to settle with coins (coins). The input / output unit can handle change.

  In addition, for example, in the fee settlement device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-339452, the periphery of an upright support is covered by a cylindrical outer wall attached to the support, and the charge settlement device is formed inside the cylindrical outer wall. Each functional block is stacked and stored so as to be freely positionable, and the cylindrical outer wall is a charge adjusting device provided so as to be vertically separable for each functional block. As the functional blocks, for example, a coin slot and a coin counter block, a change dispenser block, a card receiving slot and a card reader block, a numeric keyboard and various switch blocks, and the like are arbitrarily prepared. According to this configuration, it is possible to install neatly without taking up space by stacking elongated cylindrical housings.

JP 2005-180161A JP 2005-339452

  However, both the settlement apparatus disclosed in JP-A-2005-180161 and the fee settlement apparatus described in JP-A-2005-339452 not only have a large size but also require a large cost in each stage of manufacturing, installation, and management. If such a payment device would not be required, the cost of installing a parking lot would be extremely small. If so, it is expected that the degree of freedom in setting up a parking lot will be further increased.

  In the present invention, it is desirable to solve the above-mentioned problems and to enable low-cost installation of parking facilities with charging for vehicles such as bicycles, motorcycles, and automobiles.

  The above problem is provided with a parking device having a vehicle exit control unit, and a management device having a communication unit between the exit control unit and the portable terminal of the registered user. The management device authenticates the registered user. Means and means for adjusting usage fees, wherein the management device exchanges a camera image of an authentication code associated with the parking device with the portable terminal using the communication means by the authentication means. The registered user authentication and the association between the registered user and the parking device are performed by the control device.If the use fee of the registered user is settled by the settlement device, the management device The problem is solved by providing a temporary custody system for a vehicle that enables the vehicle to leave the vehicle.

  A dedicated parking device is prepared depending on the type of vehicle such as a bicycle, a motorcycle, and an automobile, and each of the devices is provided with a vehicle exit control unit. The retrieval control means is mainly an electric lock mechanism that can be remotely operated, and an electric motor, a solenoid, and the like control locking and unlocking. Note that there may be a design in which locking is manually performed by a user, but unlocking is electrically operated.

  The management device is positioned, for example, as a server that bundles a plurality of parking lots, and is connected to the parking lot exit control means via a dedicated line as communication means or a network such as the Internet. The current mainstream of the user's mobile terminal is a smartphone, and therefore, the design is generally such that the management device is connected to the management device by an Internet connection via wireless communication with a telephone office. Using such communication means, the management device mainly controls the parking control means of the parking lot.

  The management device is provided with means for adjusting the usage fee. An example of the settlement means is a payment terminal of a user's credit card, and a connection with a server of a credit card company is secured. In addition, it is possible to design such that it is connected to a bank that handles debit cards or to an exchange that handles virtual currency. When the settlement means is a credit card settlement terminal, it goes without saying that the settlement means needs to register in advance the credit card to be used as the settlement means in the user registration.

  The authentication means of the registered user of the management device can perform user authentication by acquiring an identification code unique to the user's portable terminal. As the double authentication, a design using a password input from a user's mobile terminal, a user's fingerprint, a user's face photo, and the like is also possible. Under such circumstances, in the present invention, the authentication code attached to the parking device that the user is about to use is photographed by the camera of the user's mobile terminal, and the camera image is received by the management device, so that the registration is performed. It is possible to link the user with the parking device. Therefore, the management device can link and record the mobile terminal of the user, the payment account of the user, and the parking device of the parking lot.

  A QR code (registered trademark) can be used as the authentication code. The QR code (registered trademark) is widely used, and has a strong data restoring power. The authentication code is output by decoding the camera image. This decoding may be performed on the user's portable terminal side or on the management apparatus side. That is, it is optional whether the mobile terminal or the management device includes the decoder.

  In the above, the authentication code attached to the parking device that the user is currently using is taken by the camera of the user's mobile terminal, and the management device receives this camera image, so that the registered user and the parking device The example of performing the linking is given. Unlike this, the management device sends the authentication code transmitted to the user's mobile terminal and displays the authentication code with a camera provided in the parking device, and the management device uses the camera image to associate the registered user with the parking device. Such a design is also possible. In addition, it is also possible to design such that a parking number in which the vehicle is parked is input from a keypad of a user's portable terminal, in order to specify a parking device that parks the vehicle as described later.

  The management device confirms that the vehicle is parked in the parking device by the user and is captured, for example, by the electric lock mechanism so that the vehicle cannot be taken out of the vehicle. If the management device confirms that the usage fee has been settled by the adjusting unit when the user wants to leave the vehicle, the outlet control unit opens the electric lock mechanism at the time of unloading. Lock the vehicle so that it can be taken out. That is, charging may be performed at the time of entry (parking) or at the time of exit. In the case of carrying out at the time of leaving the warehouse, the management device exchanges the camera image of the authentication code associated with the parking device with the portable terminal using the communication unit by the authentication unit, thereby authenticating the registered user and the registered user. It is good to confirm that the connection with the parking device has been made.

  At the time of leaving the warehouse, the management device receives the identification code attached to the parking device in advance from the mobile terminal using the communication means, so that the registered user can be authenticated and the registered user can be associated with the parking device. And that it was done. The identification code in this case is, for example, the number of the parking device.

  By the way, in order to link the registered user, his billing account and the parking device, the registered user's mobile terminal side camera and the authentication code display on the parking device, and the parking device side camera and the authentication code display on the mobile device. If the mobile terminal is used, the mobile terminal is also used when issuing a car exit request from the parking device. Therefore, preparing dedicated application software for this also contributes to improvement of the user interface. Instead of using application software, a design using a portable terminal capable of displaying WWW (World Wide Web) is also possible.

  In addition, the above-mentioned problem includes a parking gate device having a vehicle exit control unit, and a management device having a communication unit between the exit control unit and the portable terminal of the registered user. The management device includes a registered user authentication unit and a usage fee settlement unit, and the management device communicates with the portable terminal using the communication unit by the authentication unit, and a camera image of an authentication code associated with the gate device. By exchanging, the registered user authentication and the association between the registered user and the gate device, the management device, if there is a settlement of the use fee of this registered user by the settlement means, the The problem is solved by providing a temporary custody system of a vehicle, in which a vehicle is allowed to enter, that is, to leave the vehicle by the exit control means.

  The above-described system according to claim 1 has a mechanism in which a user's vehicle is parked in each individual parking device, and is captured by a motorized lock mechanism or the like so that the vehicle cannot be taken out. On the other hand, a feature of the system according to claim 2 is that a gate device is provided at an entrance of a parking lot partitioned by an enclosure, and a user's vehicle may be arbitrarily parked anywhere in the parking lot. There is a mechanism to restrict participation from the.

  A parking control device is provided in the gate device of the parking lot, and the parking control device is mainly an electrically operated lock mechanism that can be remotely controlled, and an electric motor, a solenoid, and the like control locking and unlocking.

  The management device is a server of this parking lot, and it may be provided in this parking lot or may be located at a location away from the parking lot. In the latter case, in particular, in the latter case, the parking lot exit control means is used as communication means. Is connected via a dedicated line or a network such as the Internet. Using such communication means, the management device controls the parking control of the parking lot to unlock the gate device.

  In the above case, the authentication code attached to the gate device at the entrance of the parking lot currently used by the user is taken by the camera of the user's mobile terminal, and this camera image is received by the management device, and registered. An example of linking a user with a parking device has been given. Unlike this, the management device sends the authentication code sent to the user's mobile terminal and displays it using a camera provided on the gate device at the entrance of the parking lot, and the management device takes the camera image with the registered user and the parking device. It is also possible to design such that it is used for linking.

  If the management device confirms that the usage fee has been settled by the adjustment unit at the time of entry, or that the user has settled the usage fee by the adjustment unit, assuming that the user wants to leave his / her vehicle. Is checked by the management device, the exit control means attaches to the gate device at the entrance of the parking lot, for example, opens an electric gate to allow the vehicle to exit. That is, the user can freely move the vehicle inside the parking lot, but it is required that the usage fee be settled only when the user wants to go out of the parking lot. As described above, charging may be performed at the time of entry (parking) or at the time of exit. In the case of carrying out at the time of leaving the warehouse, the management device exchanges the camera image of the authentication code associated with the parking lot with the mobile terminal using the communication means by the authentication means, so that the registered user authentication and this registered user It is good to confirm that the connection with the parking device has been made. Since the exit control means only needs to be provided in at least one or a required number of gate devices, it is more economical than the system of claim 1 in which the exit control means needs to be provided in each individual parking device. The same can be said for the management device. In addition, the fact that a QR code (registered trademark) may be used as the authentication code follows the system of claim 1.

  As described above, charging may be performed at the time of leaving the parking lot or at the time of entering the parking lot (at the time of parking). As an example of charging at the time of departure, there is a case where a usage fee is collected for one use instead of lending for time. The entrance passage may be common to the user (person) and the bicycle, or may be provided separately. In the case of a revolving door, it is more convenient to use a common one. Alternatively, the bicycle may be automatically advanced by using a conveyor.

  If the exit control means only makes it possible to exit the vehicle, not only at the time of entry but also at the time of exit, the management device uses the communication device with the identification code previously attached to the gate device of the parking lot. By receiving the information from the mobile terminal, it is possible to confirm that the registered user has been authenticated and that the registered user has been associated with the gate device of the parking lot.

  Next, the management device may enable the vehicle to be taken out of the vehicle by the exit control unit without charging the usage fee by the settlement unit if the vehicle is parked within the set time. For example, a bicycle parking lot is installed in a shopping street, and it is assumed that the usage is such that parking within one hour is set free of charge in order to make it easy to use this shopping street. The management device or the parking lot distinguishes this parking time from a long parking time for commuting, for example, by a timer.

  Further, the parking devices may be individually provided with the communication means. For example, each parking rack, which is a bicycle parking device, is designed to have a different communication unit. According to this, the operation rate and the like of each parking rack can be ascertained, so that it is more suitable for use in IoT (Internet To Things). However, a plurality of parking racks may be used as islands, and one having one communication unit on one island or one having one communication unit for the entire parking lot may be freely designed.

  By the way, the above-mentioned invention relates to parking facilities for vehicles such as bicycles, motorcycles, automobiles, etc.In recent years, it is common to go out on a car with a pet, and in order to stay, reservation of an inn where pets can be accompanied is made. It is mandatory. Also, if you go to a department store or sports club, it is difficult to go out with your pet in the first place. In addition to this, there are still shops that you will want to visit when you bring your pet.

  Automating the temporary custody service of vehicles in a parking lot and installing low-cost parking facilities for vehicles is a division made possible by the invention described above. Obviously, a service that can be kept will benefit many pet lovers, but there is no such technology yet.

  Then, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems and provides a storage facility for pets such as dogs and cats with a charge (corresponding to a parking facility of a vehicle. Is to be installed at low cost.

  The above problem is provided with a custody device having a pet leaving control unit, and a management device having a communication unit between the leaving control unit and the portable terminal of the registered user. The management device is provided with an authentication unit, and the authentication unit exchanges a camera image of an authentication code associated with the custody device with the portable terminal using a communication unit by an authentication unit to register the management device. It performs user authentication and links the registered user with the custody device, and the management device can take out the pet by the delivery control means when the usage fee of the registered user is settled by the settlement means. This is achieved by providing a temporary pet storage system.

  It is preferable to prepare dedicated storage devices for different types of dogs, cats, etc., and each of them is provided with a pet leaving control unit. The retrieval control means is mainly an electric lock mechanism that can be remotely operated, and an electric motor, a solenoid, and the like control locking and unlocking. Note that there may be a design in which locking is manually performed by a user, but unlocking is electrically operated.

  The management device is positioned, for example, as a server that bundles a plurality of custody devices, and is connected to the delivery control means of the custody device via a dedicated line as communication means or a network such as the Internet. The current mainstream of the user's mobile terminal is a smartphone, and therefore, the design is generally such that the management device is connected to the management device by an Internet connection via wireless communication with a telephone office. Using such communication means, the management device mainly controls the retrieval control means of the custody device.

  The management device is provided with means for adjusting the usage fee. An example of the settlement means is a payment terminal of a user's credit card, and a connection with a server of a credit card company is secured. In addition, it is possible to design such that it is connected to a bank that handles debit cards or to an exchange that handles virtual currency. When the settlement means is a credit card settlement terminal, it goes without saying that the settlement means needs to register in advance the credit card to be used as the settlement means in the user registration.

  The authentication means of the registered user of the management device can perform user authentication by acquiring an identification code unique to the user's portable terminal. As the double authentication, a design using a password input from a user's mobile terminal, a user's fingerprint, a user's face photo, and the like is also possible. Under such circumstances, according to the present invention, the authentication code attached to the custody device that the user is currently using is taken by the camera of the user's mobile terminal, and the management device receives the camera image, so that the registration is performed. The link between the user and the custody device can be performed. Therefore, the management device can link and record the user's mobile terminal, the user's settlement account, and the depository device.

  A QR code (registered trademark) can be used as the authentication code. The QR code (registered trademark) is widely used, and has a strong data restoring power. The authentication code is output by decoding the camera image. This decoding may be performed on the user's portable terminal side or on the management apparatus side. That is, it is optional whether the mobile terminal or the management device includes the decoder.

  In addition, in the above, the authentication code attached to the custody device that the user is trying to use right now is taken with the camera of the user's mobile terminal, and the management device receives this camera image, so that the registered user and the parking device can The example of performing the linking has been described. In contrast to this, the management device sends an authentication code sent to the mobile terminal of the user and displays the authentication code with a camera of the custody device, and the camera image is used by the management device to associate the registered user with the custody device. Such a design is also possible. In addition, it is also possible to design such that a personal room number assigned to a custody device is input from a keypad of a user's portable terminal in order to specify a custody device in which a pet is deposited.

  A pet that has been deposited in the depositing device by a user and that cannot be taken out of the car by, for example, an electric lock mechanism, and the user wants to receive the pet, that is, to put the pet in the car, is as follows. If the management device confirms that the usage fee has been settled by the adjustment unit at the time of entry, or that the user has settled the usage fee by the adjustment unit, assuming that the user wants to leave his / her vehicle. Is confirmed by the management device, the retrieval control means unlocks the electric lock mechanism. As described above, the charging of the usage fee may be performed at the time of departure (when returning the pet to the owner) or at the time of entry (when storing the pet). As an example of charging at the time of departure, there is a case where a usage fee is collected for one use, not a time lend. In the case of performing at the time of leaving the warehouse, the management device exchanges the camera image of the authentication code associated with the custody device with the portable terminal using the communication unit by the authentication unit, thereby performing the registration user authentication and the registration user It is a good division to confirm that the link has been made with the storage device.

  By the way, in order to link the registered user, its charging account and the custody device, the registered user's mobile terminal side camera and the authentication code display on the parking device, and the custody device side camera and the authentication code display on the mobile terminal. If the mobile terminal is used, the mobile terminal is also used when issuing a pet retrieval request from the custody device. Therefore, preparing dedicated application software for this also contributes to improvement of the user interface. Instead of using application software, a design using a portable terminal capable of displaying WWW (World Wide Web) is also possible.

  Next, the management device may allow the pet to be taken out by the delivery control means without charging the usage fee by the settlement means if the separately set monthly pet is temporarily stored. I can do it. It means that you can use it many times a month because it is a monthly pole. In addition, if the storage facility for pets such as dogs and cats is installed in a shopping mall, etc., if it is used within a set time, the billing control means will not be charged by the settlement means. Can set the pet to be able to leave. For example, in order to make it easier to use this shopping street, it is assumed that the usage of pets within one hour is set to be free. The custody time can be measured using a timer or the like.

  If only the retrieval control means makes it possible to retrieve the pet, the management device receives the identification code previously attached to the custody device from the mobile terminal using the communication means not only at the time of entry but also at the time of retrieval. By doing so, it is possible to confirm that the registered user has been authenticated and that the registered user has been associated with the custody device. The identification code in this case is, for example, a room number of a private room where a pet enters.

  According to the pet temporary storage system of the present invention, there is an advantage that the system can be introduced at low cost. On the other hand, the pet temporary custody service can be automated to realize unmanned and labor-saving managers. In the case of a man, it is possible to provide options such as watering and feeding or a look around option.

  The temporary custody system for a vehicle according to the present invention exchanges the authentication code of the parking device between the management device and the mobile terminal to perform the registration user authentication and the association of the registered user and the parking device. Thus, when the usage fee is settled by the registered user, the vehicle can be taken out of the vehicle. As a result, the effect of being able to install a toll parking facility for vehicles such as bicycles, motorcycles, and automobiles at low cost was achieved, and the intended purpose was achieved.

  Further, the pet temporary custody system of the present invention exchanges the authentication code of the pet custody device between the management device and the portable terminal to perform the registration user authentication and the association of the registered user and the custody device. The feature is that the pet can be taken out when the usage fee is settled by the registered user. As a result, the effect of being able to install low-cost pet storage facilities for pets such as dogs and cats was achieved, and the intended purpose was achieved.

  In the following, seven embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to a bicycle temporary storage service and a pet dog temporary storage service as examples, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments only. Absent.

  This embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. This temporary custody system includes a parking device 2, a management device 1, and a smartphone 3 owned by a user of the parking device 2. In the bicycle parking lot 23, a plurality of parking racks 4 are installed side by side. The management device 1 is constantly connected to the Internet N by a communication unit 10 via a dedicated line via an Internet provider. In the parking device 2, a main part of the communication unit 20 is a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module Card) card 44 which is an IC card in which an ID number for identifying a subscriber is recorded. The base station C2 of the network is connected to the Internet N. In this embodiment, each parking rack 4 has the SIM card 44. The smartphone 3 is a mobile phone, and is connected to the Internet N from the nearest base station C3 by a SIM card (not shown) of the communication unit 30.

  The management device 1 also includes an authentication unit 11 that performs user authentication when a registered user connects with the application (Application Software) dedicated to the temporary storage service installed on the smartphone, and a temporary unit associated with the registered user. And a settlement unit 12 that performs settlement of the usage fee for the custody service. In the authentication unit 11, a user's name, contact information, and the like are registered in advance together with an identification code unique to the user. The authentication unit 11 confirms that the user is a registered user, and continues the subsequent processing. However, if the user is not a registered user, the management device 1 leads to a user registration service. The settlement unit 12 can communicate with a settlement server of a card company (not shown) for credit confirmation and charging for a temporary deposit service charge.

  The smartphone 3 has a communication unit 30, an authentication unit 31 for communicating with the authentication unit 11 of the management device 1, and a QR code (registered trademark) that encodes a unique value assigned to each parking rack 4. 43, and a photographing unit 32 for photographing. The photographing unit 32 also decodes a QR code (registered trademark) 43 from the photographed video. When this is transmitted to the management device 1 via the communication unit 30, the management device 1 associates the registered user with the parking rack 4 being used by the registered user. This is schematically illustrated in FIG.

  The parking device 2 includes a parking control unit 21 and an authentication code 22 in addition to the communication unit 20. The content of the authentication code 22 is the same as the content of the QR code (registered trademark) 43, but is recorded in a storage device (not shown) in case the management device 1 refers to the authentication code 22. This parking device 2 is built in a parking rack 4. Three parking racks 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3 are shown in FIG. The parking rack 4 has a locking device 41 at the tip of the wheel introduction path 40 of the bicycle. The parking rack 4 is provided with a lock bar 42 so as to cross the wheel introduction path 40. When the user enters the bicycle from the front wheel T into the wheel introduction path 40 and sends it to the locking device 41, a storage sensor (not shown) detects this, and the discharge control unit 21 passes through the lock bar 42 between the spokes of the front wheel of the bicycle. The front wheel T is captured. In addition, at the time of leaving, the exit control unit 21 releases the lock bar 42 that is capturing the front wheel T of the bicycle. In addition to the lock bar 42, for example, a catching means for catching the front wheel T of the bicycle by hanging it on the rim of the wheel from both sides or turning the opposite direction to open the front wheel T is also provided. It can be arbitrarily adopted.

  Note that a QR code (registered trademark) 43 is provided on the upper surface of the locking device 41. This is photographed by a registered user with a camera (not shown) of the smartphone. If it is rather difficult to photograph the QR code (registered trademark) 43 on the upper surface of the locking device 41 in a state where the bicycle is parked in the parking rack 4, for example, it is possible to extend the locking device 41 upward and extend the bicycle. It is more preferable to apply a QR code (registered trademark) 43 to the pointed end of the support rod that has been guided to the front of the wheel introduction path 40 beyond the handle.

  Now, the processing of the temporary custody system of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. First, as a process on the parking rack 4 side, when the parking sensor (not shown) detects that a bicycle has been parked on the parking rack 4 (step S1), the delivery control unit 21 energizes a solenoid (not shown) to operate the lock bar 42. Then, the front wheel T of the bicycle is captured and locked (step S2). This prevents the bicycle from leaving until it has been paid for. In addition, separately, in preparation for a case in which the user accidentally parks, mischiefs, or changes his mind, for example, it is possible to set such that the user can leave the car without paying a usage fee within 3 minutes.

  Next, in order to take out the bicycle from the parking rack 4, the smartphone 3 activates an application dedicated to the temporary storage service while the smartphone 3 is connected to the nearest base station C3 (step S3), and communicates with the management device 1. Starts (step S4), the management device 1 identifies the user and confirms the billing account of the user (step S8). If it is confirmed that the user is a registered user, the user takes a picture of the QR code (registered trademark) 43 attached to the parking rack 4 for which the user wants to leave the bicycle by using a digital camera built in the smartphone 3 (step S5). ). Then, the application decodes the QR code (registered trademark) 43 from the captured image (step S6), and transmits the output signal to the management device 1 (step S7). The management device 1 issues a command to the parking controller 21 of the parking device 2 to unlock the parking rack 4 corresponding to the output signal (step S9), and charges the user's billing account (step S10). . That is, the settlement unit 12 charges a predetermined usage fee to a settlement server of a card company (not shown) for the registered user. Steps S3 to S7 are processing steps on the smartphone 3 side, and steps S8 to S10 are processing steps on the management device 1 side.

  This embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. When the bicycle is taken out of the parking rack 4, in the first embodiment, the QR code (registered trademark) 43 attached to the parking rack 4 is decoded and transmitted to the management device 1, and the parking rack 4 to be unlocked is sent to the parking rack 4. It was made to identify and confirm the above-mentioned tying. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the parking rack 4 is specified by the vehicle number assigned to the parking rack 4.

  That is, this dedicated application displays a ten key 34, an input display window 35, and an unlock button 36 on the display screen 33 of the smartphone 3, and the user uses the ten key 34 to enter the same number as the vehicle number (not shown) attached to the parking rack 4. After the input, this is displayed on the input display window 35, and when the user confirms that there is no input error and taps the unlock button 36, the machine number is transmitted to the management device 1.

  In this method, the parking rack 4 is specified by inputting the vehicle number from the numeric keypad 34. However, the linking between the charging account of the user who has input the parking rack 4 and the parking device, that is, In order to confirm whether the user is registered or to which registered user, it is necessary to confirm using a QR code (registered trademark) not shown here.

  This embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
