Abstract

PURPOSE:To compress the volume and the time of transmission data by storing the same slip number data as that registered in a portable data terminal carried by a driver in a computer installed in an office in advance. CONSTITUTION:The slip number of baggage to be delivered in registered in the portable data terminal 21 carried by a carrier, and the sequence of input and the slip number are stored in the computer 14 installed at the office. The carrier inputs a corresponding slip number to the portable data terminal 21 at every completion of delivery, and simultaneously, inputs the result of the completion of the delivery. In the portable data terminal 21, an internal processing to attach a mark to show the result of the completion of the delivery at the position of the corresponding slip number inputted in advance is performed. In case of transmitting the result of the completion of the delivery by using an MCA radio equipment 12, only the result of the completion of the delivery according to the sequence of the slip number without sending the slip number itself. In such a way, it is possible to compress the volume and the time of the transmission data.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Field of Application The present invention is directed to MCA radio, etc., for quickly informing an office, etc. of the completion status of a parcel delivered by a delivery vehicle or the like from a driver who is moving using a delivery vehicle or the like. Regarding a delivery completion check device using.

Conventional technology Conventionally, in data transmission methods using this type of MCA, the slip number of a package that has been delivered is directly transmitted to an office, etc. via MCA radio, etc., and the slip number itself is sometimes used as a delivery completion report. It was common.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional method described above, the slip number is transmitted as is via MCA radio, etc., so the slip number may be long,
When there are a large number of items to be sent, the amount of data to be sent increases and exceeds the data transmission capacity of MCA wireless, etc., and there are no other methods than to divide the data into small pieces and transmit the data. Therefore, the sending side needed to accurately manage the data sending order, and the receiving side needed to do the same complicated data management.Furthermore, since the data was sent sequentially, Problems remained, such as the receiving side not being able to immediately determine the overall status of delivery completion, and requiring additional information processing for this purpose.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides an excellent delivery completion check device that can immediately know the overall delivery completion status and which packages and objects have been delivered by transmitting a small amount of data. The purpose is to

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present invention registers in advance the slip number of the package to be delivered in a portable data terminal carried by the delivery person, and records the entered order and the slip number. The number is memorized in a conveita, etc. located in an office or the like. A driver who loads cargo to be delivered onto a delivery vehicle or the like and goes out for delivery enters the corresponding slip number into a portable data terminal every time a delivery is completed, and at the same time inputs the delivery completion result. The portable data terminal performs internal processing to mark the delivery completion result at the position of the corresponding slip number that has been input in advance. When transmitting the delivery completion result using MCA radio, the slip number itself is not sent, but only the delivery completion result is transmitted in accordance with the order of the slip numbers.

Function The present invention has the following effects due to the above configuration. In other words, by pre-memorizing the same slip number data registered in the portable data terminal carried by the driver and the same slip number data in a computer installed in an office, etc., the delivery can be completed. It is no longer necessary to send the slip number itself of the package that has been delivered, and if you can show where the slip number of the package that has been delivered is stored in the entire document number data, you can send the document number itself of the package that has been delivered. It is possible to obtain the same result as transmitting . Therefore, according to the present invention, the amount and time of data to be sent can be reduced, and the overall status of delivery completion can be immediately known.

Embodiment FIG. 1 shows the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 11 is a portable data terminal carried by the driver, and the data stored therein can be transmitted to the office via the MCA wireless transmitter 12 installed in the delivery vehicle. can.

Reference numeral 13 denotes an MCA radio set installed in the office, which is connected to a conbeater 14 also installed in the office. This computer has already registered the same slip number data as the portable data terminal carried by the driver.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 21 is a portable data terminal device, which registers the slip number of the slip 22 of the package to be delivered before going for delivery. Third
The figure schematically represents a collection of data generated inside the portable data terminal as a result. The slip numbers are stored in the input order with a delivery status registration field added. FIG. 4 shows a portable data terminal 411: the stored data is transmitted to a computer 42 installed in the office, and as a result, the data stored in the portable data terminal is stored in a storage device 43 of the computer. This shows how a set 45 of the same data is stored. After performing such data processing operations, the driver will go out to deliver the package. FIG. 1 shows how delivery completion data is sent to the office. When the slip number of the slip 15 for which the delivery has been completed is input, the data on the portable terminal is marked with a circle depending on the delivery status, for example, if the delivery has been completed, an "O" is added, and if the delivery is out of the office, an "X" is marked. Of course, this OX is a convenient expression, and 1 or 0 bits are given as actual data. Reference numeral 16 represents data inside the mobile terminal after this delivery end input is completed. This data is transmitted through the MCA radio 12 attached to the delivery vehicle, but at this time, not all data is transmitted, but only the distribution status 17 of delivery completion marks according to the order of registration of the slips. The computer 14 that receives this data through the MCA radio 13 processes it by comparing it with the data already stored in the storage device 18, and can finally generate the delivery completion status shown at 19.

Note that this example shows the case of one portable data terminal, but if multiple portable data terminals are used, it is necessary to devise a method to include the unique number of the terminal in the transmitted data. becomes.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above-mentioned embodiments, the present invention improves the problem of the method of transmitting parcel delivery completion data using MCA radio, etc., and has the effect of compressing the amount and time of data to be transmitted. have For example, if you use the conventional method to send 100 IO byte slip numbers and report the completion of delivery, you will have to send byte information to 1, but this method C: According to 100 ÷ 8, 13 bytes of data This means that the necessary delivery completion report can be sent using the limited data transmission capacity of the MCA radio.
