Description

  The present invention relates to a fuel delivery management system that manages the transportation status of a fuel delivery vehicle and manages the arrival time of a customer at a designated location.

  For vehicles and machines that are physically difficult to move, especially for vehicles and machines at construction sites and construction sites, tank trucks are used to retail fuel such as heavy oil and light oil (petroleum). In general, materials and various construction vehicles are always in and out of construction sites, and the refueling space is limited. In addition, if the fuel is insufficient, the heavy machinery may not be able to move, and it is necessary to adjust the time and change the work process during the refueling operation at a construction site or the like. Against this background, there is a need for customers who receive refueling to know in real time the time when a tank truck will arrive at the site and to know exactly that time.

  Examples of the technology related to the present invention include those shown in the following patent documents. In the system (a vehicle allocation plan service providing system) presented in this patent document, the vehicle allocation plan server includes a delivery order database, a vehicle database, etc., and is recorded in the vehicle database from the delivery order data recorded in the delivery order database. Dispatch planning with reference to data on transport vehicles. The vehicle allocation plan server transmits the vehicle allocation result to the mobile communication terminal of each transport vehicle and also to the customer computer.

Japanese Patent No. 3416635

  In the system described in the above-described patent document, a collection / delivery plan (information relating to collection / delivery destination, collection / delivery cargo at each collection / delivery destination, estimated arrival time at each collection / delivery destination, and travel route) can be confirmed from a customer terminal. However, the fuel delivery management system according to the present invention is not a system for sending cargo from a collection / delivery source to a collection / delivery destination, but a system in which a fuel delivery company sends fuel to a delivery destination, and the delivery targets are different.

  In addition, when fuel is delivered by a delivery vehicle such as a tank truck, it is necessary to accurately grasp the time when the fuel delivery vehicle arrives at the site. For example, it is necessary to secure time for moving heavy equipment on site to a place where refueling is possible, and work in a limited space. It is necessary to have another vehicle move to park the car. For this reason, if the delivery vehicle does not come accurately at the designated time, the work at the site is confused. Conventionally, a telephone is used for this confirmation work. However, when the driver is working or driving, the telephone cannot be answered. In addition, it is difficult for the actual driver to understand what the situation is, even if it is confirmed on the telephone on the center side, and the customer has to call twice later. In the case of customers, this resulted in dissatisfaction.

  In addition, at present, it is technically difficult to add an additional fuel measuring device to the tank truck later. For this reason, it is difficult to determine whether the remaining tank volume of a tank truck that cannot be measured is compatible with additional orders from customers, and as a result, it is difficult to respond to additional orders from customers. .

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and accurately knows what the driver is currently doing in the server on the delivery center side, thereby notifying the customer of the accurate arrival time. It is an object to provide a fuel delivery management system capable of In addition, when the driver completes refueling, the distribution center side informs the refueling amount on the delivery center side, so that the remaining amount of fuel can be grasped in real time by the distribution center side, which helps to determine whether additional orders can be handled. It is an object of the present invention to provide a fuel delivery management system that can be used.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a fuel delivery management system for managing delivery of a delivery vehicle that supplies fuel to a place where a machine that requires fuel is located, storing contents of orders received from customers, A server for managing delivery of a delivery vehicle and a driver terminal carried by the delivery vehicle driver, the server including a customer name including direct contact information of the customer who has placed the order, and a location including a fuel delivery location Vehicle information including information, delivery time information specifying delivery time, machine information storing machine information held by the customer, and delivery vehicle information including the amount of fuel that the delivery vehicle can carry at one time And a driver for selecting a driver that can be delivered on the day based on the driver information, and a storage unit that stores driver information about the driver and map information including current position information of the delivery vehicle. Exit means, area calculation means for calculating an area that can be delivered by the driver selected from the location information of the customer information, fuel calculation means for calculating the amount of fuel delivered based on the machine information and delivery vehicle information, and a map The driver terminal of the driver selected by the driver selecting means based on the information and the delivery time information, the order calculating means for calculating the order of delivery by the delivery vehicle, the customer information, the location information, the fuel calculating means, and the result of the order calculating means And a communication means for notifying the customer of the name of the driver of the delivery vehicle and for notifying the arrival time at the delivery location.

  In addition, the driver terminal sends real-time delivery information including a scheduled arrival time, the amount of fueling, the number of refueling completions, and a report that fueling has been completed to the server in response to the driver's operation. When the delivery information is stored in the storage unit and the delivery information is received from the driver terminal, the delivery information is updated, and the customer waiting for refueling is notified of the next arrival time by means of communication, and the estimated arrival time is reached. When there is a change, a configuration in which the change time is notified may be used.

  In addition, the server notifies other driver terminals carried by drivers other than the driver selected by the driver selection means of the current refueling status of the driver. It may be configured to allow the driver's delivery vehicle to refuel.

  In addition, the driver terminal sends the refueling quantity data after refueling to the server for each remaining amount of fuel remaining in the tank of the delivery vehicle from the refueling quantity data at the start of delivery. The remaining amount may be stored in the storage unit.

  In addition, when there is an additional order from the customer, the server determines whether or not the additional order can be supported from the remaining amount of fuel in the delivery vehicle stored in the storage unit, and informs the customer of the determination result and responds. If possible, the configuration may be such that additional order information is transmitted to the driver terminal.

  Further, the server may be configured such that historical refueling information for each machine is created in a predetermined data format and a customer terminal can be downloaded from the server. Further, the server may be configured to create a refueling slip to be handed to the customer at the time of refueling in a predetermined data format and allow the customer's terminal to download from the server.

  In addition, the location information may include electronic data of documents provided by customers used at the delivery location.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to notify the customer of an accurate arrival time by accurately grasping what the driver is currently doing in the server on the distribution center side.

  Next, the operation of the fuel delivery management system (fuel delivery management method) will be described with reference to FIGS.

  4 and 5 are flowcharts for explaining the operation of the fuel delivery management system according to the embodiment of the present invention. In the processing shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the customer terminal 30 accesses the server 10 using an ID (personal identification information) and a password (password) given in advance according to the operation of the customer (step S1). . And the calculating part 12 of the server 10 authenticates a customer using ID and a password transmitted from the customer terminal 30 (step S2). In addition, the following structures may be sufficient. That is, the customer terminal 30 can download an application (hereinafter referred to as an application) that provides a fuel delivery service in accordance with a customer's operation to a server (the server 10 of the delivery center 1 or a server other than the server 10). ) Request. When the server receives a request for downloading an application from the customer terminal 30, the server transmits the requested application to the customer terminal 30. When the customer receives the application at the customer terminal 30, the customer installs the application on the customer terminal 30.

  The customer terminal 30 orders fuel from the server 10 in accordance with the customer operation (step S3). At this time, customer information 13 a is transmitted from the customer terminal 30 to the server 10. In addition, when the customer has ordered the fuel before, some information (for example, customer name 13a1) in the customer information 13a can be omitted.

  When receiving the order from the customer terminal 30, the computing unit 12 of the server 10 creates customer information 13a corresponding to the order (order received) and stores it in the database 13 (step S4). The driver selection unit 12a of the calculation unit 12 of the server 10 selects a driver that can be delivered on the fuel delivery date based on the driver information 13c of the database 13 (step S5). Further, the area calculation unit 12b calculates an area (for example, Ota Ward, Shinagawa Ward, etc.) where the driver can deliver based on the location information 13a2 of the site where the fuel is delivered (Step S6). Further, the fuel calculation unit 12c calculates the amount of fuel (fuel supply amount) to be delivered on the delivery date based on the heavy equipment information 13a4 and the delivery vehicle information 13b (step S7). For example, the fuel calculation unit 12c calculates the total amount of fuel to be delivered by adding the amounts of fuel to be supplied to one or more heavy machines at each site to be delivered. At this time, the fuel calculation unit 12c also determines the type of delivery vehicle 200 (for example, large and small delivery vehicles) that can deliver the calculated amount of fuel. Furthermore, the order calculation unit 12d calculates the order (route, delivery route) of each site in the area calculated by the area calculation unit 12b based on the delivery time information 13a3 and the map information 13d (step S8).

  Next, the communication unit 11 of the server 10 creates the delivery information 13f for the driver, and transmits the created delivery information 13f for the driver to the driver terminal 20 (step S9). Upon receiving the driver delivery information 13f transmitted from the server 10, the driver terminal 20 displays the received delivery information 13f on the display screen (step S10).

  6 to 9 are diagrams showing display examples of the display screen of the driver terminal 20. In the display example shown in FIG. 6, the order of the site delivered by the driver, the address of the site location, the estimated time to arrive at the site, and a mark indicating whether delivery has been completed (“◯” “not”) And are displayed. In the display example shown in FIG. 7, the details of the delivery instruction at each site are displayed. Specifically, customer name, contact information, site name, site person in charge, estimated arrival time, type of heavy machinery (indicated as “by heavy machinery” in FIG. 7), heavy equipment model number, product name (type of fuel), The quantity of fuel is displayed. For example, when the driver touches the location on the display screen shown in FIG. 6, the details of the delivery instruction shown in FIG. 7 for the touched location are displayed. These display examples are examples, and the display method can be variously changed. Further, when there is a restriction on entry / exit to the delivery site, an entry permit (see FIG. 8) provided by the customer and an approach route diagram (see FIG. 9) provided to the site are displayed on the display screen of the driver terminal 20. be able to. These documents provided by the customer are provided in a file format such as PDF format. The driver can easily prepare an admission permit, an approach route map, and the like necessary when arriving at the site.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 4, the communication unit 11 of the server 10 creates the delivery information 13f for the customer, and transmits the created delivery information 13f for the customer to the customer terminal 30 (step S11). Upon receiving the customer delivery information 13f transmitted from the server 10, the customer terminal 30 displays the received delivery information 13f on the display screen (step S12).

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating a display example of customer delivery information displayed on the display screen of the customer terminal 30. In the display example shown in FIG. 10, as the details of the delivery instruction, the driver name, the driver telephone number (the telephone number of the driver terminal 20 or the telephone number of the portable terminal held by the driver; may be a contact address such as an e-mail address). The estimated arrival time (estimated arrival time) at the site, current information indicating how many times the driver (delivery vehicle 200) will arrive, and delivery vehicle location information 500 indicating the location of the delivery vehicle 200 are displayed. In the example illustrated in FIG. 10, the delivery vehicle position information 500 indicates that the delivery vehicle 200 is at the position of the previous front site, and the current information is displayed as “the second item remaining”.

  The server 10 delivers based on position information based on the GPS function (Global Positioning System) of the car navigation system mounted on the delivery vehicle 200, position information on the GPS function mounted on the driver terminal 20, and the like. The position of the car 200 is specified.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 5, the computing unit 12 of the server 10 updates the delivery information 13f according to the delivery status of the delivery vehicle 200 (step S13), and the communication unit 11 uses the updated delivery information 13f for the driver as the driver. It transmits to the terminal 20 (step S14). Upon receiving the driver delivery information 13f transmitted from the server 10, the driver terminal 20 displays the received delivery information 13f on the display screen (step S15). In addition, the communication unit 11 transmits the updated customer delivery information 13f to the customer terminal 30 (step S16). Upon receiving the customer delivery information 13f transmitted from the server 10, the customer terminal 30 displays the received delivery information 13f on the display screen (step S17). The server 10 repeatedly executes these processes (the processes in steps S13 to S17).

  When the driver arrives at the site, the driver starts refueling from the delivery vehicle 200 to the heavy machinery at the site. At this time, the driver terminal 20 transmits the start time of refueling to the server 10 according to the operation of the driver (step S18). The calculation unit 12 of the server 10 stores the start time of refueling transmitted from the driver terminal 20 for each site (step S19). When refueling is completed, the driver terminal 20 transmits to the server 10 refueling quantity data (data indicating how many liters have been refueled) indicating the refueling end time and the quantity refueled to the heavy machinery according to the operation of the driver. (Step S20). The calculation unit 12 of the server 10 stores the refueling end time and the refueling quantity data transmitted from the driver terminal 20 for each site, and calculates the remaining amount of fuel in the tank in the delivery vehicle 200 based on the refueling quantity data ( Step S21). The calculation unit 12 of the server 10 stores the calculated remaining fuel amount in the tank as remaining fuel information 13g. The refueling quantity data is information included in the refueling information 13e.

  The driver may greatly delay the scheduled time to arrive at the site due to delays in refueling work and traffic congestion. In view of such a situation, the delivery information 13f is transmitted not only to the driver (driver terminal 20) that should deliver fuel to the site, but also to the driver terminal 20 of the driver nearby the driver (step S22).

  FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the display screen of the driver terminal 20 of a nearby driver. In the display example shown in FIG. 11, the delivery time, the site name, the site person in charge, the estimated arrival time, the heavy equipment type (type of heavy machine), and the product name are displayed. Note that the location (address) of the site, the quantity of fuel to be refueled, and the like may be displayed.

  Neighboring drivers can see each other's current refueling situation. As a result, other drivers in the vicinity can support the refueling of the delayed driver (refueling on site instead).

  The customer terminal 30 downloads historical refueling information (including refueling quantity data) for each heavy machine from the server 10 as a file in a predetermined data format (for example, CSV format) (step S23). Further, the customer terminal 30 downloads a refueling slip to be handed over to the customer during refueling from the server 10 in a predetermined file format (for example, PDF file format) (step S24). Thereby, the work and management burden on the customer side can be greatly reduced.

  As described above, in this embodiment, it is possible to notify the customer of the accurate arrival time by accurately grasping what the driver is currently doing in the server 10 on the distribution center 1 side. .

  Specifically, conventionally, the customer has confirmed the delivery status by exchanging with the telephone between the customer and the delivery center. In other words, the person in charge at the distribution center confirms with the driver and calls the customer again from the distribution center, which is troublesome. As for the location at the customer's site, it is possible to know how much refueling is necessary by building information on the customer, site, and construction-related machines in advance as data. Convenient. As a result, one tank lorry vehicle can grasp the required amount with one refueling. For example, a tanker truck with a capacity of 5000 L is preliminarily calculated such that the heavy equipment A at the site A is 100 L and the heavy equipment B at the site B is 50 L, respectively, and if necessary, 5000 L− (100 L + 50 L). Then, by looking at the map information, it is possible to grasp the route that is reasonable in the shortest route.

  In the first embodiment described above, there is an order from the customer terminal 30 and the delivery information is transmitted from the server 10 to the customer terminal 30. However, the order may be received from the customer and the delivery information is transmitted to the customer by telephone. May be. In this case, manual or existing automatic voice response device can be used to input the order contents to the server 10. The server 10 can send the delivery information from the server 10 to the customer by calling the customer's telephone number stored in the database 13 (storage unit) and using a synthesized voice or a human voice.

  Furthermore, in Embodiment 1, you may display the position of the driver terminal 20 (delivery vehicle 200) on a map using a map application. By using the map application, the server 10 and the customer terminal 20 can know the current position of the delivery vehicle 200 on the map. In addition, when the driver terminal 20 (delivery car 200) enters within a predetermined distance from a pre-registered delivery destination location, a notification that the customer terminal 30 will soon arrive may be transmitted. This can be realized by an application such as a map application or a combination of a plurality of applications. Furthermore, when the estimated arrival time displayed on the customer terminal 20 is passed to the driver terminal 20 via the map application or the like, a function that inputs a fact that a delivery delay is likely to occur and a new estimated arrival time are transmitted. This information is transmitted to the customer terminal 30 so that the customer can confirm the fact that the delivery delay occurs and the new estimated arrival time.

<Embodiment 2>
FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the fuel delivery management system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The customer may want to place additional orders after placing an order for fuel. In this case, the customer terminal 30 accesses the server 10 of the distribution center 1 using an ID and a password in accordance with a customer operation, and the calculation unit 12 of the server 10 authenticates the customer using the ID and the password ( (See steps S1 and S2 in FIG. 4). Then, as shown in FIG. 12, the customer terminal 30 places an additional order for fuel according to the operation of the customer after the authentication of the server 10 (step S31).

  The calculation unit 12 of the server 10 determines the fuel of the delivery vehicle 200 at that time that the server 10 knows when there is an additional order from the customer during the delivery of the fuel by the driver (during delivery of the delivery vehicle 200). Based on the remaining information 13g, it is determined whether or not an additional order can be handled (step S32). When the communication unit 11 of the server 10 determines that the additional order can be handled (YES in step S32), the communication unit 11 notifies the customer (step S33). If the communication unit 11 can respond to the customer's additional order, the communication unit 11 transmits the driver delivery information 13f after the additional order to the driver terminal 20 to the driver terminal 20 (step S34). When the driver terminal 20 receives the delivery information 13f for the driver after the additional order transmitted from the server 10, the driver terminal 20 displays the received delivery information 13f on the display screen (step S35).

  Moreover, the communication part 11 transmits the delivery information 13f for customers after the additional order to the customer terminal 30 (step S36). Upon receiving the customer delivery information 13f after the additional order transmitted from the server 10, the customer terminal 30 displays the received delivery information 13f on the display screen (step S37). In Step S32, when it is determined that the calculation unit 12 of the server 10 cannot respond to the additional order (NO in Step S32), for example, it corresponds as a new order (executes the processing after Step S4 in FIG. 4).
