Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to an in-vehicle ticket confirmation device, and more particularly to an in-vehicle ticket confirmation device suitable for tetsubenfuga with reserved seats or beds.

[Conventional technology]

Iron Xl with reserved seat or berth! In half-ryo, conventional.

Tickets for each reserved seat or berth are checked manually.

In addition, related technologies of this type include, for example,
Examples include Utility Model Application No. 57-20349.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional technology requires a lot of time and effort to check the ticket, and the waiting time for the ticket confirmation causes discomfort to passengers.

No consideration is given to the fact that the process of checking tickets becomes long due to passengers temporarily leaving their seats, which hinders improvements in service to passengers and labor savings in conductor duties.

An object of the present invention is to provide an in-train ticket confirmation device that can improve service to passengers and save labor in conductor duties.

[Means to solve the problem]

The above object is to provide an in-vehicle ticket confirmation device with a ticket insertion means provided in the vehicle, and an information judgment means provided in the vehicle and inserted into the insertion means, for answering back information on the ticket. This is achieved by comprising: a display means provided in the vehicle and displaying the riding situation based on information answered back to the information judgment means.

[For production]

A boarding ticket held by the passenger is inserted into the insertion means by the passenger. When a boarding ticket is inserted into the insertion means, information on the boarding ticket is answered back to the information determining means. When the information on the boarding ticket is answered back to the information determining means, the boarding situation is displayed on the display means based on the answered back information.

Therefore, it is possible to save time and effort in the work of checking the vehicle ticket, and to prevent the work of checking the train ticket from taking a long time due to the temporary leaving of the passenger's seat.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG.

In FIG. 1, a single ticket insertion board 10 is provided in a place where a passenger can easily insert a boarding ticket in each reserved seat or bed, or in each vehicle in a train set. Riding ticket R21
11 is valid for one boarding day and one day of disembarking.

It has information such as the train name, designated number 1 boarding station name, and alighting station name, and is, for example, a magnetic card or an IO card. The ticket insertion board 10 has a function of extracting the inserted ticket and returning it to the passenger. Also, if a wrong boarding ticket is inserted for each reserved seat or berth.

The ticket insertion board 10 may be provided with a function of issuing a warning to passengers using a lamp, a buzzer, or the like. Also, upper 6C
When the ticket is not converted into a card, that is, when a conventional ticket is used, the ticket insertion board 10 has the function of reading the information written on the ticket and converting it into a signal. The information judgment device 130 is provided, for example, in each vehicle in the train formation or in the conductor's room. The ticket insertion board lO is
It is connected to the information judgment device a[30 so that signals can be transmitted and received. The display device i4° is provided, for example, in each vehicle in the train formation or in the conductor's room at a location where the conductor can easily check the boarding status. The display device Fjt40 has, for example, a function of displaying the boarding situation all at once or a function of displaying the boarding situation one by one for each designated seat or bed. Display 3
・! [40 is connected to the information judgment unit so as to be able to receive signals.

Further, in FIG. 1, in this case, the information transmitting/receiving device for information such as the occupancy rate to the next station etc. is connected to the information determining device (equipment) so as to be able to transmit and receive signals, and is provided in the vehicle.

In addition, a vacant seat communication device that notifies passengers of vacant seats due to passengers getting off the train is connected between information transmitting and receiving devices so that signals can be transmitted, and is installed, for example, at stations. In addition, the station display board 7 informs you of the occupancy rate of vehicles that are about to arrive at the next station, etc.
0 is connected to an information transmitting/receiving device [50 so as to be able to receive signals, and 1 is provided, for example, on a platform.

In FIG. 1, a ticket holder is inserted into a ticket insertion board 10 by a passenger in possession of the ticket.

The information judgment device, TAO, always sends a signal to the ticket insertion board 10, and when a ticket addition is inserted into the ticket insertion board 10, the information on the inserted ticket addition is sent to the ticket insertion board 10. Answer back to Means Garden. The answered back information is compared with previously input information, and if correct, a display signal is output from the information judgment device W130 to the display device package. The display device [40 receives the display signal and displays the riding status.

Further, in FIG. 1, when a passenger who gets off the train returns the boarding ticket 10 at the alighting station, the data on the returned boarding ticket is collected and converted into a signal by the vacant seat transmitting device ω. The signal is output from the vacancy transmitting device ω to the information determining device (equipment). The information judgment device (9
) outputs a signal to the display device 40 to cancel the displayed content. As a result, the display device 1f40 displays an empty seat for the corresponding seat or berth, and prepares it for the next passenger.

Further, in FIG. 1, the information judgment device 30 calculates the occupancy rate, etc. of each vehicle based on the data obtained as described above. The calculated occupancy rate etc. is transmitted to the next station etc. via the information transmitting/receiving device.

As a result, the station display board 70 displays the occupancy rate and the like for each car of the vehicles that will arrive from now on.

In this embodiment, it is possible to eliminate the use of cowhide in the process of checking tickets, and also to prevent the process of checking tickets from taking a long time due to passengers temporarily leaving their seats, thereby improving service to passengers and saving labor in the conductor's work. be able to.
