As shown in FIG. 1, the operation data collection device 1 includes a digital tachograph body 2 and a handy numeric key 3 as an input processing device that can be attached to and detached from the digital tachograph body 2. The digital tachograph body 2 is connected to various sensors that detect the operation state of the vehicle (for example, the speed sensor 4 that detects the vehicle speed), and periodically collects detection results from the various sensors as operation data. To a recording medium such as a memory card (not shown).

  The handy numeric key 3 is connected to the digital tachograph main body 2 by a signal line 5 and transmits operation data input by the driver to the digital tachograph main body 2. The handy ten key 3 includes a keyboard 31 as an operation means for inputting operation data of the vehicle, an LCD 32 on which various information corresponding to the operation of the keyboard 31 is displayed, a μCOM 33 for controlling the entire handy ten key 3, It has.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the keyboard 31 is a numeric keypad 31a, and function keys for inputting loading, waiting, unloading, inspection, other work, rest, toll, and refueling amount as operation data. 31b, an actual vehicle / empty vehicle switching key 31c for inputting whether the operation status of the vehicle is an actual vehicle or an empty vehicle, and whether the vehicle is traveling on a highway, a dedicated road, or a general road A high-speed / dedicated / general road switching key 31d for inputting, and a transmission confirmation key 31e as confirmation operation means are provided.

  The LCD 32 displays various information according to the operation of the keyboard 31 described above, such as the operation status of the vehicle and the road segment on which the vehicle is running. The μCOM 33 is connected to the keyboard 31 and to the LCD 32 and the digital tachograph main body 2 via the I / F 34 and the communication I / F 35, respectively.

  The μCOM 33 includes a CPU 33a that performs various processes according to a processing program, a ROM 33b that stores a program for processes performed by the CPU 33a, a work area that is used in various processes in the CPU 33a, a data storage area that stores various data, and the like. These are connected to each other by a bus line.

  In the ROM 33b described above, a corresponding code indicating operation data is stored in association with each key constituting the keyboard 31. In the ROM 33b described above, among the plurality of keys provided on the keyboard 31, a key operation (input operation) is performed while the vehicle is traveling and a key operation is not performed while the vehicle is stopped. It is preset and stored as a key.

  Further, in the ROM 33b, a plurality of keys that are operated while the vehicle is stopped and that are not operated while traveling are preset and stored as a stop operation key. In the present embodiment, for example, the high speed / dedicated / general road switching key 31d is stored as a travel operation key, and the function key 31b is stored as a stop operation key. As is clear from this, the high speed / dedicated / general road switching key 31d corresponds to the travel operation means in the claims, and the function key 31b corresponds to the stop operation means in the claims.

  Next, the operation of the handy numeric key 3 having the above-described configuration will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, the CPU 33a starts processing in response to turning on of the power supply, and first functions as a travel determination unit. The CPU 33a captures the detection result of the speed sensor 4 via the digital tachograph body 2, and is traveling based on the captured detection result. Is determined (step S1). This step S1 corresponds to a travel determination step in the claims.

  If there is a speed (Y in step S1), the CPU 33a determines that the vehicle is traveling, sets the stop operation key stored in the ROM 33b to an invalid key (step S2), A key that is not set to either the travel operation key or the stop operation key (for example, the actual vehicle / empty vehicle switching key 31c) is set as an effective key (step S3).

  Thereafter, when the key operation of the set effective key is performed (Y in step S4), the CPU 33a reads the corresponding code associated with the key operated key from the table stored in the ROM 33b, and stores the corresponding code in the RAM 33c. (Step S5). Thereafter, when the key operation of the transmission confirmation key 31e is performed (Y in Step S6), the CPU 33a transmits the corresponding code temporarily stored in the RAM 33c to the digital tachograph body 2 via the communication I / F 35. After (step S7), the process returns to step S1. The digital tachograph body 2 records the transmitted corresponding code as operation data on a recording medium such as a memory card.

  On the other hand, if the transmission confirmation key 31e is not operated even after a lapse of a certain time after the effective key is operated (Y in step S8), the CPU 33a stores the corresponding code temporarily stored in the RAM 33c. Is discarded (step S9), the process returns to step S1.

  On the other hand, if there is no speed (N in step S1), the CPU 33a determines that the vehicle is not traveling, that is, is stopped, and sets the traveling operation key stored in the ROM 33b as an invalid key ( In step S10), a key that is not set to any of the stop operation key, the travel operation key, and the stop operation key (for example, the actual vehicle / empty vehicle switching key 31c) is set as an effective key (step S11). Thereafter, when the key operation of the set effective key is performed (Y in step S12), the CPU 33a reads the corresponding code associated with the key operated key from the table stored in the ROM 33b. After the read corresponding code is transmitted to the digital tachograph body 2 via the communication I / F 35 (step S13), the process returns to step S1. As is apparent from the above, steps S2 to S13 correspond to the input processing step in the claims, and in this step S2 to S13, the CPU 33a functions as the input processing means in the claims.

  According to the handy ten key 3 described above, the CPU 33a determines whether or not the vehicle is traveling. If the CPU 33a determines that the vehicle is traveling, the traveling operation key is set as an effective key and a response corresponding to the key operation of the traveling operation key is performed. The transmission (input processing) of data (operation data) to the digital tachograph body 2 is permitted, and the stop operation key is set to an invalid key, and corresponding data corresponding to the key operation of the stop operation key is sent to the digital tachograph body 2 Prohibit transmission. Thereby, even if the stop operation key is erroneously operated during driving, transmission to the digital tachograph main body 2 is prohibited, so that erroneous operation data can be prevented from being input during driving.

  Further, according to the handy ten key 3 described above, when the CPU 33a does not determine that the vehicle is traveling, the traveling operation key is set to an invalid key and the corresponding data corresponding to the key operation of the traveling operation key is transferred to the digital tachograph body 2. Transmission is prohibited, and the stop operation key is set as a valid key, and transmission of corresponding data to the digital tachograph body 2 according to the key operation of the stop operation key is permitted. As a result, even if a traveling operation key such as the high speed / dedicated / general road switching key 31d is accidentally operated while the vehicle is stopped, transmission to the digital tachograph body 2 is prohibited, so that operation data is erroneously input while the vehicle is stopped. Can be prevented.

  Further, according to the handy ten key 3 described above, as shown in FIG. 4, when the CPU 33a determines that the vehicle is traveling, the key operation of the traveling operation key such as the high speed / dedicated / general road switching key 31d is performed. When the transmission confirmation key 31e is operated within a certain time, the corresponding data corresponding to the key operation operation key is transmitted to the digital tachograph body 2, and the transmission confirmation key 31e is operated even after the certain time is exceeded. Otherwise, the corresponding data is not transmitted to the digital tachograph body 2. As a result, even if an incorrect key operation is performed during operation, transmission to the digital tachograph main body 2 is not performed unless the transmission confirmation key 31e is operated, so erroneous operation data can be input more reliably. Can be prevented.

  Further, according to the above-described handy ten key 3, when the CPU 33a does not determine that the vehicle is running, after the key operation of the valid key is performed, the valid key that is key-operated without waiting for the operation of the transmission confirmation key 31e. The corresponding data corresponding to is transmitted to the digital tachograph body 2. As a result, when the vehicle is stopped with few erroneous key operations, the correspondence data can be transmitted to the digital tachograph main body 2 without operating the transmission confirmation key 31e after the key operation of the keyboard 31, so that the operability is improved. Can be achieved.

  In the above-described embodiment, the correspondence data is transmitted to the digital tachograph body 2 without waiting for the operation of the transmission confirmation key 31e when it is not determined that the vehicle is running. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Absent. Even when it is not determined that the vehicle is traveling, the corresponding data may be transmitted to the digital tachograph body 2 after waiting for the operation of the transmission confirmation key 31e as in the case of traveling.
