  When the user 3 presses the operation button 88, the display unit 87 displays the voltage charge state in accordance with the control of the control unit 91. When charging is completed, the high voltage unit 92 supplies a high voltage to the power supply pad 90. At that time, voice guidance such as “Please leave because of danger!” Is given from the speaker 89.

  The power supply control unit 94 includes a battery pack having a charging coil 95 (only the charging coil is shown). When the AED unit 85 is stored in the AED storage box 28, non-contact charging is performed by the charging coil provided on the AED storage box 28 side. The power control unit 94 is provided with a terminal unit (not shown) such as a USB terminal that can supply power to an external device. In the present embodiment, the terminal portion and the mobile terminal 86 are connected via a predetermined cable 96.

  The communication unit 93 can output the internal state of the AED 41 and can input signals for performing various settings from the outside. The specific configuration of the communication unit 93 is not limited.

  As the portable terminal 86, for example, a PHS terminal is used, but is not limited thereto. The portable terminal 86 includes a control unit 98, a call unit 99, an operation key group 100, a GPS reception unit 101, and a power supply / communication unit 102. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the calling unit 99 is connected to a wide area communication line network and can talk. The GSP receiver 101 can acquire current position information of the mobile terminal 86 based on radio waves from GPS satellites. Power is supplied to the power supply / communication unit 102 from the power control unit 94 of the AED 41 via the cable 96. The power supply / communication unit 96 can communicate with the communication unit 93 of the AED 41.

  When the AED unit 85 is taken out from the AED storage box 28, the portable terminal 86 automatically enters a state where it can talk. For example, the control unit 91 senses that the charging state of the charging coil 95 of the power supply control unit 94 has changed, and the information is output via the communication unit 93. In the portable terminal 86, the information is received via the power supply / communication unit 102 and is automatically set to a call state by the control unit 98.

  In the present embodiment, the mobile terminal 86 can talk to the operator of the parking lot management center 80. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it may be possible to make a call with the manufacturer of the AED unit 85, a nearby fire department, or a specialized medical institution. Note that the method for automatically starting the call state as the AED unit 85 is taken out is not limited, and any method may be adopted.

  Inside the AED unit 85, the AED 41 and the portable terminal 86 are integrally fixed so as not to be detached. Note that the mobile terminal 86 may be in a state where it cannot be visually recognized by the user 3. For example, only the calling part 99 may be open to the extent that a call can be made, and the other part may be covered with a cover or the like. The operation key group 100 may be omitted.

  Next, a procedure for using the AED 41 will be described. Assume that an emergency occurs and the user 3 desires to use the AED 41. Since the opening / closing door 42 of the AED storage box 28 is unlocked, the user can open the opening / closing door 42 and take out the AED unit 85. When the AED unit 85 is taken out, the state is detected by the AED storage sensor 74. In response to this, the AED characters that are lit on the AED display 54 of the guide sign 15 are displayed blinking. At this time, a predetermined alarm sound or the like may be generated.

  When the AED unit 85 is taken out, the portable terminal 86 can talk to the operator of the parking lot management center 80. As a result, the user 3 and the operator can automatically interact with each other. For example, the user 3 can explain the situation and ask the operator how to respond to an emergency or how to use the AED. As a result, it is possible to calm yourself and take appropriate measures against emergency situations, including proper use of the AED.

  On the operator side, a call to the user 3, whether or not an emergency has occurred, and its situation can be sufficiently heard. Further, by the remote operation, moving image shooting by the camera 38 can be started, and the video around the settlement machine 14 can be displayed as a LIVE video on the monitor of the management PC 81. The activation of the camera 38 may be automatically started at the same time when the AED unit 85 is taken out or a call with the portable terminal 86 is started.

  In addition, the operator can provide support such as instructing and guiding how to use the AED 41, life-saving measures, etc., or encouraging the user 3, if necessary. It is also possible to request an emergency vehicle from a nearby fire department or the like and connect a call with the portable terminal 86 to the staff. It is also possible to connect a call to an emergency response staff of a specialized medical institution. This allows the user to receive specialized support from a medical institution or the like.

  There may be a case where the user 3 loses use of the AED in response to the occurrence of an emergency. Even in such a case, the interphone 25 provided in the checkout machine 14 can be used sufficiently. When the user 3 presses the call button 37 of the interphone 25, the checkout machine 14 calls (calls) from the interphone 25 to the parking lot management center 80 via the DCE 76 and the wide area communication network 84. Along with this, the management PC 81 of the parking lot management center 80 may automatically display an alarm, may make a warning sound as appropriate, and notifies the operator of the parking lot management center 80.

  In order to respond to this, the operator performs a predetermined operation of the management PC 81 to open a call with the settlement machine 14 of the local parking lot 10 and calls the user 3. For example, after instructing the use of the AED 41, the user can be supported in the same manner as when the portable terminal 86 is connected. In this case, the call using the interphone and the call using the portable terminal 86 may be appropriately switched.

  In normal times, the interphone 26 is used to check troubles, requests, complaints, etc. in the parking lot 10. In the present invention, interaction with the operator can be utilized to realize proper use of the AED 41.

  As the AED unit 85 is taken out, the movement history of the GPS signal is sequentially recorded. That is, the history of position information of the portable terminal 86 is sequentially stored. For example, the GPS signal can be recorded for a certain period of time using a memory or the like mounted in the portable terminal 86. The position information of the portable terminal 86 is transmitted to the parking lot management center 80. As a result, information on the current location of the AED unit 85 can be acquired. Note that the mobile terminal 86 may be provided with a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, or the like, and the movement of the AED unit 85 may be detected.

  A time for the AED unit 85 to be taken out and the AED characters to blink may be set. That is, after the AED unit 85 is taken out and a predetermined time elapses, the AED character may be turned off once, and the AED character may be turned on again when the AED unit 85 is returned. As the predetermined time, for example, the time from taking out the AED 41 to the arrival of the emergency vehicle is set to about 15 minutes. It is not limited to this time, and can be extended by remote operation or turned off during the operation.

  The detection of the return of the AED 41 can be executed by detecting the first state by the AED storage sensor 74. In addition to this, position information of the portable terminal 86 may be used. For example, the position information of the payment machine 14 is stored in the memory 62 of the payment machine main body 39, and the CPU 61 determines whether the position information acquired by the mobile terminal 86 matches the position information of the payment machine 14. . At this time, the CPU 61 functions as a determination unit.

  After the use of the AED 41 (second state) is notified by the guide sign 15, the AED storage sensor 74 detects the first state, and if the result of the determination by the CPU 61 is affirmative, the AED Completion of the return of the unit 85 may be detected. Then, the first state may be notified by the AED display unit 54. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably detect the return of the AED unit 85, and it is possible to accurately execute the notification of the first state. Further, it is possible to eliminate the need to dispatch a staff member to the parking lot in order to confirm the return of the AED unit 85.

  When the user 3 leaves the AED unit 85 without returning it or forgets it, the operator can call the portable terminal 86 to request return by calling. Further, the location of the AED unit 85 can be specified from the GPS position information of the portable terminal 85. Therefore, it is possible to display the current position information on the map application on the management PC 81, and separately instruct a staff member (a staff member who performs management of parking lots, replenishment and collection of change, etc.) to collect the information.

  In recent years, it has been recommended that a large number of AEDs be installed and spread, and emergency responses be made by ordinary residents. As described above, the present inventor has newly devised that a portable AED is installed in a checkout machine of a parking lot and the management is performed at the parking lot management center.

As described above, this makes it possible to exert the following effects.
Residents in the vicinity of the parking lot can also use the AED, and in the event of an emergency, they can use the checkout machine's communication / call function to guide emergency vehicles and support life-saving measures.
By installing an AED in the checkout machine, it is easy for nearby residents to learn the location of the parking lot, and the operating rate of the parking lot increases.
With the GPS location information of the mobile terminal, it is possible to specify the take-out location and confirm whether or not to return it from the parking lot center.
The spread of AED is promoted by the Japan Heart Foundation and various NPOs, and each local government is also seeking cooperation for installation. According to the present invention, it is possible to make a social contribution as well as a parking lot business purpose.
Since some local governments provide subsidies for installing AEDs, it is possible to reduce the cost of installing AEDs.
As a utilization of idle land, the number of land owners who start to operate parking lots will increase.
Since it is possible to use a system for managing a parking lot, it is possible to sufficiently reduce the cost for constructing a system according to the present invention that can cope with an emergency.

  The effects described in the present disclosure including these effects are merely examples and are not limited. In addition, the above description of the plurality of effects does not necessarily mean that those effects are exhibited simultaneously. It means that at least one of the above-described effects can be obtained depending on conditions and the like, and of course there is a possibility that an effect not described in the present disclosure is exhibited.

<Other embodiments>
The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, and other various embodiments can be realized.

  For example, there is a possibility that a person who makes a mischief such as taking out the AED unit 85 even though an emergency has not occurred may appear. In a normal parking lot system, a security camera or the like should be installed to prevent mischief or fraudulent acts on the checkout machine 14 or the guide sign 15, crimes such as theft of the parked vehicle 5 'or vandalism. There are many. Since such a security camera and the camera unit 27 of the checkout machine 14 described above can monitor and record the behavior of a person in the parking lot, it is very advantageous to prevent mischief against AED. .

  In order to prevent AED mischief, the door 42 of the AED storage box 28 may be always locked. The locking and unlocking of the open / close door 42 may be appropriately controlled based on the determination by the operator of the parking lot management center 80.

  For example, when the user 3 desires to use the AED, first, the call button 37 of the interphone 25 is pressed, and the dialogue with the operator is started. User 3 explains to the operator the current situation and the desire to use AED. The operator determines whether or not the AED should be used in accordance with, for example, the operation rules, based on the explanation contents of the user 3 and the captured image from the camera 38. If it is determined that the AED needs to be used, the door 42 is unlocked by remote control. At this time, the user 3 may be requested to present a license through the camera 38 or may be requested to declare a telephone number.

  The method of unlocking the open / close door 42 by remote operation is not limited. For example, by remote operation, the energization of the solenoid or the like that locks the key of the open / close door 42 of the AED storage box 28 is turned off and locked by the solenoid. Unlocking is realized by moving the key. Other configurations may be employed.

  When the AED unit 85 is returned, the opening / closing door 42 is locked by remote operation of the operator or automatically based on detection of the AED storage sensor 74, detection of return using position information based on GPS signals, and the like. After the door 42 is locked, the AED character is lit on the AED display unit 54. Thus, permission and denial of use of AED may be performed by the judgment of the operator of the parking lot management center 80. As a result, it is possible to prevent a mischief such as a suspicious person or the like taking AED without permission.

  It is also possible to combine at least two feature portions among the feature portions of each embodiment described above. That is, the various characteristic parts described in each embodiment may be arbitrarily combined without distinction between the embodiments.

  Small parking lots scattered in residential areas and a parking lot system that remotely manages the parking lots are suitable for implementation, and it can be said that the availability as an additional function of a pay parking lot is extremely high.
