Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is a multi-story parking lot management device that notifies users of a multi-story parking lot of empty parking positions (hereinafter referred to as empty parking positions).

[Background Art] In recent years, there has been a shortage of space for parking lots, and in order to meet the demand for parking as many cars as possible in a designated area, multi-story parking lots are being built in various places. Users of this parking lot first receive a parking ticket from an attendant, and when leaving the parking lot, they pay the attendant a fee corresponding to the parking time. When users use a building with a parking lot, many of them wish to park in an empty parking position near the floor they want to use.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, although the attendant accepts the user because he/she knows that there is space in the parking lot as a whole, there may be cases where there is no vacant space on the floor that the user wants to use. . In this case, the user must search for a vacant spot nearby, but if there is little parking space, it may not always be possible to find a vacant spot right away, or if multiple cars are using the same vehicle, Because people want to park their cars close to each other, not only does it take time to search for a vacant spot, but it also causes congestion in the parking lot.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve such problems, the first invention provides an empty parking position extraction requesting means for requesting the extraction of empty parking positions;
The present invention includes an empty parking position information extraction device that extracts empty parking positions when the request is received from the empty parking position extraction requesting means, and a display device that displays the extracted empty parking positions.

The second invention provides an empty parking position extraction request means for requesting the extraction of empty parking positions for a required number of cars, and when the empty parking position extraction request means requests the extraction of empty parking positions for a plurality of cars, the number of empty parking positions becomes close to each other by the number of requested cars. The present invention includes an empty parking position information extraction device that extracts an empty parking position so as to be a parking position, and a display device that displays the extracted empty parking position.

[Operation] When a vacant parking position request is made, a vacant parking position close to the desired floor is extracted, and when a required number of vacant parking positions are requested, the places with the conditions that each car can be parked close to each other are extracted, and the parking position is displayed. be done.

[Example] FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention.

All of these devices manage parking time using a medium such as a magnetic card that can process data electrically. If you are a registered user, you will be given a magnetic card with your membership number, name, vehicle number, etc. memorized in advance, and if you are an unregistered user, you will be asked to pick up your card from the staff at the entrance. Keep it.

A user first inserts a card into the card reading device 1. As shown in FIG. 3, the card reading device 1 is equipped with a reader 1a for reading data on a card 1b, numeric keys 1d for setting numerical data such as a desired hierarchy and the required number of units, and a large key 1e for inputting the information. An input device 1c is provided.

Therefore, when the card 1b is inserted into the reader 1a, the data stored in the predetermined card lb is read by the reader, and the data is transferred to the interface device 2. [,,
A transmission path 31 such as AN etc. is sent to the v4 control bag W5 via the communication control device 4 (hereinafter, it is assumed that each device is all sent to the control bag W5 via the transmission path 3), and the desired layer is specified by the numeric key ld, and the input key -1e
When is pressed, the data of the desired hierarchy is transmitted to the control device 5, and in the same way, the data of the required number of devices is transmitted to the control device 5. The v4 control device 5 generates empty position information based on this information and supplies it to the empty position display device 6 and the audio output bag f7 via the communication control device 4, so that the empty position is displayed and the audio Guidance will be provided.

Next, when the user operates the confirmation switch 8, the garage door controlled by the automatic door control device 9 automatically opens.

At this time, information regarding the user is stored in the control device 5 along with the storage time, and the display on the display device is displayed on the printer 1.
Printed with o.

When the user moves to the turntable in the elevator and it is confirmed that the car has moved, the turntable control device 11
The turntable rotates 180 degrees and changes direction, and the elevator is automatically operated by the elevator control device 12, automatically lands on the designated floor of the parking position, opens the elevator door, and displays the parking position and recognizes the parking position. When the vehicle is parked by the device 13 at a place where a guide lamp indicating the parking position is blinking, the lamp goes out and parking is completed.

When leaving the parking lot, if you park in front of the elevator, the elevator will automatically land on the floor and guide you to the exit.

When the card is read by the card reading device 14 on the exit side in front of the exit door, the audio output device 15 provides audio fare guidance, and the parking time and parking fee display device 16 displays the parking time and parking fee. Parking fees will be displayed. At this point, when the user operates the confirmation switch 17, the door opens automatically and it becomes possible to exit the warehouse. Fees are aggregated on a monthly basis for registered members, so they can be billed monthly, or they can be collected on a case-by-case basis, just like non-registered visitors.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a function for displaying an empty position, and this function of the control device 5 is used when displaying an empty position. When the user inputs desired hierarchy data and parking number data, it is stored in the hierarchy memory 5a and the number of parking spaces memory 5b. The stored data is supplied to random number generators 5c and 5d. The random number generators 5c and 5d are designed to generate unspecified data every time the data supplied from the hierarchical memory 5a or the number memory 5b changes. Although the data generated there is unspecified,
The random number generator 5C has a range corresponding to the hierarchy.
d is data in a range corresponding to the desired number of parking cars, and unspecified address signals corresponding to each input are generated within a range where the address signals are as close as possible. In addition, the last address data (the largest address data) regarding the hierarchy and number of units stored in the memory 5e is generated by the random number generator 5c.
, 5d, so that the random number generators 5c and 5d do not generate address data larger than that address data.

Address signals corresponding to the floor and the number of parked cars generated from the random number generators 5c and 5d are supplied to the memory 5e. This memory sequentially stores data representing empty positions and their hierarchies, and when an address signal generated by the random number generators 5c and 5d is supplied, the empty position information corresponding to the address signal is read out. It is supplied to the position display device 6.

When the confirmation switch 8 is operated, the information is stored in the hierarchical memory 5.
a, is supplied to the number memory 5b and resets them.

Also, since this information is supplied to the memory 5e, the memory 5e
e now erases the data sent as an empty position, and performs sorting to fill in the data after the erased part (data larger than the erased address) in order to prevent the erased part from becoming blank. ing. For this reason, the memory 4e always stores data regarding vacant positions in address order.

Note that, when the number of parked cars is 1, it is natural that the parking position for one car is extracted.

Although the above embodiment is a system in which the user is transported to the destination floor using an elevator, a self-propelled system may also be used.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, in this invention, when a request is made to extract empty parking positions for the required number of cars based on a request for extraction of empty parking positions for the required number of cars, empty parking positions are extracted according to the required number of cars. In addition, when the number of extracted cars is multiple, there is an empty parking position information extraction device that extracts empty parking position information so that the parking positions are as close as the requested number of cars, and a display that displays the extracted empty parking positions. Since the parking lot is equipped with a parking lot device, the user can clearly see the parking location, does not waste time searching for an empty parking lot, and has the effect of reducing congestion in the parking lot.
