The present invention relates to parking lot equipment, its control method, and control program.

Mechanical parking facilities (multi-level parking lots, etc.) attached to office buildings, condominiums, etc. are used only by contracted users, so each user is given a PIN number or a remote control transmitter is provided in advance. When each user enters or exits a vehicle, they must enter their PIN number on the operation panel installed outside the entrance/exit door or the exit reservation board installed in the lobby of the condominium, or User authentication is performed by receiving authentication information (remote control signal) transmitted from a remote control transmitter, and the system is used to call pallets, lifts, etc. that transport the vehicle body, and to open and close the entry/exit doors.

In such mechanical parking facilities, when closing the entry/exit door (entry/exit) of the entry/exit room where parked vehicles enter/exit, the user must make sure that there are no people, pets, etc. left inside the entry/exit room. Must be thoroughly confirmed. However, because the control panel is located a little distance from the entrance, it is troublesome for the user standing in front of the control panel to directly look into the interior of the entry compartment to confirm safety, and it is often difficult to confirm the situation thoroughly. In some cases, the entry/exit door was closed without this being done.

Therefore, like the mechanical parking facility disclosed in Patent Document 1, a camera is installed in the entrance room, and the image taken by this camera is image-processed to determine the face of the person. It memorizes the facial features of those who enter the room and identifies each person, and on the condition that everyone has left the entry/exit room, it allows machinery to be activated, such as closing the entrance/exit door, thereby automating safety checks. Visual confirmation by the user can be omitted.

In addition, the mechanical parking facility disclosed in Patent Document 2 installs a camera inside the entrance room and sends the image to a remotely installed monitoring center.

Thereafter, the pallet 18 is turned 90 degrees by the turntable 8 and directed toward the entrance 3.

The display on the operation screen 45 during this time is as shown in FIG. The display section 45a shows the time until the empty pallet 18 arrives at the boarding room 7 in a countdown format. Note that at this time, a real-time image of the inside of the passenger compartment 7 may be displayed on the input section 45b, for example. This can somewhat alleviate the user's discomfort with waiting time.

When the empty pallet 18 arrives at the loading room 7, as shown in FIG. 13, a message "Please enter" is displayed on the operation screen 45, and the loading/unloading door 4 is automatically opened. In accordance with this, the user drives the vehicle 2 and slowly enters the entrance/exit room 7 through the entrance/exit 3, rides the vehicle 2 on top of the empty pallet 18 placed on the turntable 8, and moves the vehicle 2 forward. When the display of the parking position indicator light 25 installed in the front of the passenger compartment 7 changes from "forward" to "stop," the vehicle is stopped, the parking brake is applied, the windows and doors are securely closed and locked, and the door mirrors are closed and locked. After folding up the vehicle and storing the antenna etc., the vehicle exits the vehicle and exits from the passenger compartment 7.

When the vehicle 2 enters the passenger compartment 7 from the entrance/exit 3 in this way, the infrared beam 30a emitted by the entrance/exit emergency stop sensor 305 shown in FIG. As a result, the entry of the vehicle 2 is detected, and the display on the operation screen 45 changes to one that guides the parking position as shown in FIGS. 14 and 15. The guidance display shown in FIGS. 14 and 15 is similar to the display of the stop position indicator light 25. These screens and the display of the stop position indicator light 25 are caused by the fact that the infrared beam 30a emitted by the vehicle front sensor 301, vehicle rear sensor 302, etc. shown in FIG. 3 is blocked or transmitted by the front and rear ends of the vehicle 2. As a result, the longitudinal position of the vehicle 2 with respect to the pallet 18 is detected.

If an error situation occurs (occurs) in the vehicle 2 on the pallet 18, one of the sensors 30 (301 to 320) installed at multiple locations inside the entry compartment 7 Detects error conditions. At this time, the control device 40 determines which of the four entry room cameras 35A to 35D installed in the entry room 7 can best capture the error situation detected by the sensor 30 (301 to 320). A camera is selected from 35A to 35D, and its image information CI is displayed on the operation screen 45. This also applies during the first safety confirmation operation.

At the same time, the control device 40 displays real-time detection information DI of the sensors 30 (301 to 320) on the operation screen 45 together with the image information CI, as shown in FIGS. 16 to 18.

For example, if the front part of the vehicle 2 that has entered and stopped in the entry compartment 7 blocks the infrared beam 30a of the vehicle front sensor 301 shown in FIG. 3, causing an error, as shown in FIG. Then, the image information CI photographed by the entrance camera 35A that can photograph the front of the vehicle 2 is selected and displayed on the operation screen 45, and a bar-shaped animation is displayed across the forehead of the image of the vehicle 2. DI (detection information) is displayed. This animation DI is displayed conspicuously by blinking or the like. By displaying this animation DI, the user viewing the operation screen 45 can quickly recognize that the vehicle 2 is stopped too far forward and can correct the situation.

Further, for example, if the right door of the vehicle 2 is open and this door blocks the infrared beam 30a of the door open detection (top) (right) sensor 317B shown in FIG. 3, causing an error, As shown in FIG. 17, the image information CI captured by the entry camera 35D that can capture the right side of the vehicle 2 is selected and displayed on the operation screen 45, and the image information CI is displayed along the right side of the image of the vehicle 2. A bar-shaped animation DI is displayed. This allows the user to quickly recognize that the right door of the vehicle 2 is open and immediately go to close it.

Further, for example, the vehicle 2 is a mid-roof vehicle or a high-roof vehicle, and the overall height thereof is high, and the front part of the vehicle body is equipped with the mid-roof vehicle corner cut (front) sensor 309 shown in FIG. If the infrared beam 30a of the sensor 311 is blocked and an error occurs, as shown in FIG. Image information CI taken by the 35D is selected and displayed on the operation screen 45, and an animation DI in the form of a diagonal bar with a shape similar to the actual corner cutting sensor is displayed at a location corresponding to the front part of the vehicle body. . As a result, the user understands that it is impossible to park the vehicle 2 and takes the vehicle 2 out of the entry room 7.

In this way, the control device 40 detects that the sensor 30 (301 to 320) detects an error situation in the passenger compartment 7 while the unattended confirmation button SB1 and image information CI are displayed and after the unattended confirmation button SB1 is pressed. If so, disable further operations. Then, the user is informed that it is necessary to check the inside of the passenger compartment 7 through a display on the operation screen 45 and a sound from the speaker 47.

If no error situation has occurred in the vehicle 2 on the pallet 18, the second authentication screen shown in FIG. 19 is displayed on the operation screen 45, and the input section 45b is equipped with a numeric keypad 81 and a guide for entering a password. The user then enters his or her own authentication number again using the numeric keypad 81. The purpose of performing the second authentication in this way is, for example, when the next user comes to the venue while the user is in the entry/exit door 4 without recognizing that the previous user is in the entry/exit room 7. This is to ensure safety from being closed.

When the user follows the instructions and enters his/her personal identification number using the numeric keypad 81, the second authentication is established and the operation screen 45 is switched to the screen shown in FIG. 20. As shown in FIGS. 20 to 23, the operation screen 45 (input section 45b) has a message that allows the user to reconfirm that the interior of the entry/exit room 7 is definitely unmanned before closing the entry/exit door 4. A confirmation screen will be displayed (second safety confirmation operation).

That is, similar to the first safety confirmation operation (see FIGS. 7 to 10), the control device 40 performs real-time monitoring of the interior of the cabin 7 using the four cabin cameras 35A to 35D installed in the cabin 7. An unattended confirmation button SB2 (safety confirmation button) is displayed on the operation screen 45 (input section 45b) together with the image information CI. Images taken by the entry cameras 35A to 35D are displayed as "front" (FIG. 20), "rear" (FIG. 21), "left side" (FIG. 22), and "right side" (FIG. 23), respectively.

The user checks this image information CI one by one, and if there is no abnormality, presses the unattended confirmation button SB2. The display order on the operation screen 45 may be such that each time the unattended confirmation button SB2 is pressed, the screen changes from the display shown in FIG. 20 → FIG. 21 → FIG. 22 → FIG. Alternatively, the user may be asked to press the unattended confirmation button SB2 once. The key point is to display real-time image information CI of the interior of the passenger compartment 7 and the unmanned confirmation button SB2 on the operation screen 45 operated by the user, and to have the user confirm this himself and press the unmanned confirmation button SB2. . Note that the user's face, hands, etc. are recorded by the operator camera 49 during this confirmation work as well.

In this way, the image information CI of the interior of the passenger compartment 7 and the unattended confirmation button SB2 are displayed on the operation screen 45 because of the large number of sensors 30 ( 301 to 320), it is a prerequisite that no error situation is detected in the passenger compartment 7.

When the user presses the unmanned confirmation button SB2 to confirm that there are no objects or people other than the vehicle 2 inside the entry compartment 7, and the user presses the unattended confirmation button SB2, the second safety confirmation operation is completed and the operation screen 45 is displayed. The display switches to the display shown in FIG. In addition, if the unattended confirmation button SB2 on each screen is not pressed within a predetermined period of time (for example, 1 minute) or if the sensor 30 (301 to 320) detects an abnormality, an error shown in FIGS. 16 to 18 will occur. It is designed to return to the image when the situation was detected.

In the images of FIGS. 24 to 27, the third safety confirmation operation is performed before closing the entry/exit door 4. Similar to the first and second safety confirmation operations, the close door button SB3 (safety confirmation button ) is displayed on the operation screen 45 (input section 45b). Images taken by the entrance cameras 35A to 35D are displayed as "front" (FIG. 24), "rear" (FIG. 25), "left side" (FIG. 26), and "right side" (FIG. 27), respectively.

The user checks this image information CI one by one, and if there is no abnormality, presses the close button SB3. The display order on the operation screen 45 may be such that each time the close button SB3 is pressed, the screen changes from the display shown in FIG. 24 → FIG. 25 → FIG. 26 → FIG. It is also possible to have the user press the close button SB3 once after showing the user. During this confirmation work, the user's face, hands, etc. are recorded by the operator camera 49.

When closing the door 4 by pressing the close button SB3, it is preferable to press and hold the close button SB3 for a predetermined period of time (for example, 1 second). This can prevent the user from accidentally touching and pressing the door close button SB3 without checking the operation screen 45.

When the user presses the close button SB3 to confirm that there are no objects or people other than the vehicle 2 inside the entry compartment 7 and that it is safe, the third safety confirmation operation is completed and the entry/exit door 4 is closed. begins to close. Accordingly, the display on the operation screen 45 switches to the displays shown in FIGS. 28 to 31.

While the entry/exit door 4 is closed, the fourth safety confirmation operation is performed as shown in FIGS. 28 to 31. Here, in the same way as the first to third safety confirmation operations, real-time image information CI of the interior of the passenger compartment 7 obtained by the four passenger compartment cameras 35A to 35D installed in the passenger compartment 7, as well as door reversal button SB4 ( Safety confirmation button) will be displayed. Images taken by the entrance cameras 35A to 35D are displayed as "front" (FIG. 28), "rear" (FIG. 29), "left side" (FIG. 30), and "right side" (FIG. 31), respectively.

The user checks these image information CI one by one, but if there is no particular abnormality, there is no need to press the door reversal button SB4. If any abnormality is found, the door reversal button SB4 is pressed to reverse the entry/exit door 4 (reopen the door). In this case, control is returned to the stage of the second safety confirmation operation shown in FIG. After the parking is completed, as shown in FIG. 32, an image of the inside of the passenger compartment 7 is displayed for a while (for example, for 10 seconds). If there is no abnormality, the warehousing is completed. During this process, if the next user wants to start stocking, he or she presses the reservation button RB displayed at the upper right of the operation screen 45. As a result, the display on the operation screen 45 changes to the first authentication screen shown in FIG.

If any of the sensors 30 (301 to 320) detects an error situation in the entry compartment 7 at any point in the flow of the above-mentioned entry/exit operation, the entry/exit door 4 is opened, The operation screen 45 is returned to the images shown in FIGS. 16 to 18. In this case, the user determines the content of the error situation by looking at the operation screen 45, enters the passenger compartment 7, resolves the error situation, and restarts the operation from the second safety confirmation operation shown in FIG. 19.

[Issuance operation]
The flow of entering the vehicle 2 into the warehouse will not be explained in detail, but the user first performs the first authentication, then calls the pallet 18 on which the vehicle 2 to be exited is loaded to the loading/unloading room 7, and then enters and exits the garage. When the door 4 is opened, the user enters the entry room 7, gets on the vehicle 2, and carries the vehicle 2 out of the entry room 7.

After transporting the vehicle 2, get off the vehicle 2, go to the operation panel 22, first perform the second authentication, and then display the information on the operation screen 45 in the same way as the second safety confirmation operation during the warehousing operation. Check the safety while looking at the image information CI and confirm whether the passenger compartment 7 is unoccupied.

Next, a safety check similar to the third safety check operation at the time of warehousing operation is performed and the door 4 is closed, and while the door 4 is closed, the same safety check operation is performed as the fourth safety check operation at the time of the warehousing operation. The loading/unloading operation is completed by making sure that the loading/unloading door 4 is closed while performing a safety check. During this series of confirmation work, the operator camera 49 records the user's face, hands, etc.

FIG. 33 is a flowchart showing the control flow (control method) during the first to fourth safety confirmation operations described above.
After starting this safety confirmation control, an authentication screen shown in FIG. 6 or FIG. 19 is displayed in step S1. Note that this step is omitted in the third and fourth safety confirmation operations.

Next, in step S2, it is determined whether the user authentication was successful. If the user authentication fails (S2 → NO), the process returns to step S1, and if the user authentication succeeds (S2 → YES), the process moves to step S3, where the image information CI in the passenger compartment 7 and the safety confirmation button SB1 are displayed. ~SB4 is displayed.

Next, in step S4, it is determined whether a predetermined time (for example, one minute) has elapsed. The user needs to press the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 during this predetermined time. If the predetermined time has elapsed (S4→YES), the process returns to step S1, and if the predetermined time has not elapsed (S4→NO), the process moves to step S5.

In step S5, it is determined whether the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 have been pressed. If it is pressed (S5→YES), the process moves to step S6, and if it is not pressed (S5→NO), the process returns to step S4.

In step S6, it is determined whether an error situation is detected in the passenger compartment 7 by the sensor 30 (301 to 320). If no error situation has been detected (S6→NO), the process moves to step S7, the next operation step is executed, and the safety confirmation control ends. Further, if an error situation is detected in the passenger compartment 7 (S6→YES), the process moves to step S8.

In step S8, a camera capable of photographing the error situation is selected from among the four entry room cameras 35A to 35D installed in the entry room 7. Next, in step S9, image information CI from the selected camera and sensor detection information DI are displayed on the operation screen 45 (see FIGS. 16 to 18). After an instruction to check the inside of the passenger compartment 7 is given in step S10, the process returns to step S3. After entering the passenger compartment 7 and confirming and resolving the error situation, the user confirms the image information CI displayed on the operation screen 45 and presses the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 again.

By the way, when a user enters or exits the entrance/exit room 7 at the time of entering or exiting the garage, the user's entry/exit is confirmed by a sensor.
As shown in FIG. 3, the vehicle rear sensor 302 and the entrance/exit emergency stop sensor 305 are arranged so that two infrared beams 30a (detection lines) cross the vicinity of the entrance/exit 3 inside the entrance/exit 7. ing. The infrared beam 30a of the vehicle rear sensor 302 is on the back side, and the infrared beam 30a of the entrance/exit emergency stop sensor 305 is on the front side (outside).

In the control device 40, as shown in FIG. 34, the entrance/exit emergency stop sensor 305 on the front side is first blocked from light and turned ON, and then the vehicle rear sensor 302 on the back side is blocked from light. When it turns on, the hall manned signal turns on, and it is determined that the user has entered the hall.
Further, as shown in FIG. 35, first the vehicle rear sensor 302 on the back side is blocked from light and turned ON, and then the entry/exit emergency stop sensor 305 on the front side is blocked from light and turned ON. The on-site manned signal is turned off, and it is determined that the user has left the premises.

As described above, the safety confirmation system SCS and the safety confirmation method according to the present embodiment display real-time image information captured by the entry cameras 35A to 35D on the touch panel operation screen 45 operated by the user. The present invention is characterized in that the CI and safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4, which inform the user that the interior of the passenger compartment 7 is safe, are displayed together.

In this way, since the image information CI of the interior of the passenger compartment is displayed on the operation screen 45, the user can reliably view this image information CI and confirm the safety of the interior of the passenger compartment 7. Therefore, it is possible to prevent people, pets, etc. from remaining in the entry compartment 7, and improve the safety of the mechanical parking facility 1.

Note that if image information inside the passenger compartment 7 is displayed on a monitor or the like installed separately from the operation screen 45, the image may not be clearly visible due to reflection of sunlight or the like. Furthermore, since the user has to take his/her line of sight away from the operation screen 45 and check the monitor, etc., the operability deteriorates. On the other hand, if the image information CI of the interior of the passenger compartment 7 is displayed on the operation screen 45 as in the present embodiment, the operation screen 45 is generally given an angle that is not affected by sunlight, so that the user can Image information CI can be visually recognized well.

In addition, in this safety confirmation system SCS and safety confirmation method, real-time detection information (animation DI) of the sensors 30 (301 to 320) is displayed on the operation screen 45 along with image information CI and safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4. It's supposed to let you do it. Thereby, when operating the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 on the operation screen 45, the user can confirm the sensor detection information DI along with the image information CI of the passenger compartment 7. Therefore, it is possible to recognize even error situations that are difficult to identify based on the image information CI alone, making it easier to deal with error situations, and further improving safety.

Furthermore, in this safety confirmation system SCS and safety confirmation method, when the user checks the safety inside the cabin 7 (first to fourth safety confirmation operations), the sensors 30 (301 to 320) detect an error inside the cabin 7. On the condition that no situation is detected, the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 are displayed together with the image information CI on the operation screen 45, and the operation does not proceed to the next operation stage unless the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 are pressed. It's in control.

As a result, the user cannot proceed to the next operation stage until he or she confirms the image information CI of the passenger compartment 7 displayed on the operation screen 45 and presses the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4. Therefore, the user can reliably check the safety inside the passenger compartment 7, and safety can be further improved.

In addition, in this safety confirmation system SCS, four entry room cameras 35A to 35D are installed at four different locations in the entry room 7, and the control device 40 receives four images from these four entry room cameras 35A to 35D.

Therefore, it is possible to eliminate blind spots in the passenger compartment 7 and further improve safety.

Furthermore, in this safety confirmation system SCS, a plurality of sensors 30 (301 to 320) are installed at multiple locations in the passenger compartment 7, and when any of these sensors detects some error situation in the passenger compartment 7, In this case, the control device 40 selects the entry room camera capable of photographing the above error situation from among the four entry room cameras 35A to 35D installed in the entry room 7, and displays the image information CI on the operation screen 45. It is designed to be displayed. Therefore, the user who operates the operation screen 45 can reliably recognize the error situation inside the passenger compartment 7, thereby increasing safety.

In addition, in this safety confirmation system SCS and safety confirmation method, the sensor 3 If any one of (301 to 320) detects an error situation in the passenger compartment 7, subsequent operations are disabled.

If this is done, the detection of the error situation by the sensor 30 (301 to 320) will be given priority over the safety confirmation by the user, and subsequent operations will be invalidated, so mechanical parking will be disabled without checking and repairing the error situation. It is possible to prevent the car yard equipment 1 from starting up and further improve safety.

Moreover, this safety confirmation system SCS is configured to photograph the face of a user operating the operation screen 45 using an operator camera 49 installed near the operation screen 45, and record the image along with the date and time of the operation.

In this way, by recording the face of the user operating the operation screen 45 and the date and time of the operation, verification can be facilitated in the unlikely event that an accident or breakdown occurs. Furthermore, since the user recognizes that he or she is being photographed, this has the effect of discouraging friendly operations (such as proxy operations).

Note that it is not essential that the operator camera 49 photograph the user's face from beginning to end. For example, the user may be photographed at the timing when the user presses the safety confirmation buttons SB1 to SB4 on the operation screen 45.

Moreover, in this safety confirmation system SCS, the sensors 302 and 305 are arranged so that a plurality of infrared beams 30a cross the vicinity of the entrance/exit 3 inside the passenger compartment 7, and the infrared beams 30a of these sensors 302 and 305 It is determined that the user has entered or exited the entry room 7 based on the order in which the light is blocked. This makes it possible to reliably detect when a user enters or leaves a room, thereby increasing safety.

Furthermore, in this safety confirmation system SCS, when the user performs an operation to close the entry/exit door 4, the close button SB3 is displayed together with the image information CI on the operation screen 45, and the user presses the close button SB3 as specified while showing the image information CI.
