Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a guidance management device for controlling guidance information used for guidance display and guidance broadcasting.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a guidance management device for performing guidance broadcasting, guidance display, etc. at stations. This guidance management device
A central processing unit that stores the timetable information of all stations and transmits the timetable information of each station, and a central processing unit that is arranged for each station and receives and stores the timetable information of the station from the central processing unit. A guide station device that performs guide broadcast / guidance display based on the above, and an optical transmission line that connects the guide station device and the central processing unit.

In order to perform guidance broadcast / guidance display by the guidance management device, first, the central processing unit creates the timetable information for each station, and this timetable information, for example, before the train is operated,
Alternatively, when changed, it is output by a high-speed communication transmission means such as an optical transmission line. At each station, the timetable information of the station is received through the optical transmission line, temporarily stored, and the guidance broadcast / guidance display is performed through the guidance station device.

[0004]

However, since the conventional guidance management device has only the schedule information of each station at each station, it is closed at each station, that is, it is not related to the schedules of other stations. In addition, the information was broadcast and displayed only with the timetable information of the station. Therefore, if guidance control is performed in this way, detailed guidance control cannot be performed.For example, at which station should I change trains? It was not possible to give guidance to let us know whether the train will be connected to the train or where the train will be overtaken by another train.

Further, if each station stores the timetable information of all stations, it is possible to perform detailed guidance control, but having each station's timetable for all stations will increase the memory of the guidance station device, and relatively. A guide station device with a simple hardware configuration was difficult in terms of processing performance. Furthermore, it is necessary to follow the sudden timetable corrections performed by the operation management system in real time, but since each station does this at its own timing, the content of guidance control at each station was absurd.

The present invention has been made in view of such conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide a guidance management device capable of performing fine and reliable guidance control without increasing the storage capacity of the guidance station device. And

[0007]

Therefore, the present invention is based on FIG.
As shown in, a central processing unit that stores the timetable information of all stations and transmits the timetable information for each station, and is arranged for each station, and receives the timetable information only for the own station from the central processing unit. In a guidance management device including a guidance station device that stores and stores information based on the received timetable information,
Guidance information creating means for creating guidance information for each station for each station, and guidance information for each station created by the guidance information creating means, together with the timetable information for each station, and guidance for each station. The central processing unit is provided with a transmitting means for transmitting to the station device.

[0008]

According to the above construction, the guide information for each station, which is related to the timetable information of the own station and other stations, is created by the guide information creating means, and the guide station device of each station is created by the transmitting means together with the timetable information of each station. Sent to. Therefore, at each station, by receiving this timetable information and guidance information,
It becomes possible to perform guidance related to the schedule of other stations other than the own station, and it is possible to perform fine and reliable guidance control without increasing the storage capacity of the guidance station device at each station.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 2 showing the present embodiment, the guide station units 1, 2, 3, and 4 are provided at (m−1), m, (m + 1), and x stations, which are arranged as shown in FIG. 3, for example. For example, it is a device that performs guide broadcasting / guidance display, and is connected to the central processing unit 6 via the optical transmission line 5. In FIG. 3, stations (m-1) to (m + 1) are main lines and station x is a branch line.

In FIG. 4 showing the structure of the central processing unit 6, for example, a basic disk is stored in the floppy disk 61. Guide console 62 is floppy disk 61
This is a device for reading the basic timetable information stored in the.
Entered in 63. When the timetable is corrected, the corrected timetable is input from the operation management system 64 to the guidance control device 63. The guidance control device 63 is configured by a computer or the like, creates guidance information, and then, at each station (m-1), m, (m + 1), x
The software for transmitting the guide information together with the timetable information is stored in.

Next, the operation of the guidance control device 63 is operated based on the flowchart of FIG. In step (denoted as "S" in the drawing, the same applies hereinafter) 1, guide information related to the own station and other stations is created for each station. The guide information to be created is as follows, for example. 1. Type change information (guidance information for trains whose train type is changed at a midway station) 2. Branch line transfer information (transfer information for trains moving from main line to branch line) 3. Main line transfer information (transfer information for trains entering a main line from a branch line) 4. Connection information (guidance information for stations connecting to trains of different train types) 5. Overtaking information (guidance information for stations overtaken by other trains) 6. First-arrival information (guidance information for stations that arrive earlier than other trains) 7. Main line first-arrival information (guidance information for stations arriving first on the main line) 8. Release information (guidance information for stations that disconnect trains) For example, when a train operates according to the train schedule shown in FIG. 7, as (m-1) station guidance information, "time t
_One limited express train B connects to ordinary train A at m stations. "
Connection information, "Class C information at time t ₅ will be a rapid train after leaving station m."
Passing information is created that "a regular train A departing at time t ₀ is overtaken by a limited express train B at m stations."

Further, as the guide information for m stations, type change information "Train C will be a faster train than this station" is created. Further, as the guidance information for the x stations, the main line transfer information "Train D can transfer to the rapid train C at m stations" is created. If there is a sudden change in operation, the guide information is created based on the modified timetable input from the operation management system 64. This step 1
Corresponds to the guide information creating means.

In step 2, the created guide information for each station is output to the optical transmission line 5 and transmitted together with the schedule information for each station. This step 2 corresponds to the transmitting means. Next, the operation of the guidance station devices 1 to 4 of each station will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. In step 11, the timetable information and guidance information output to the optical transmission path 6 are input, and the timetable information and guidance information that have been input are stored.

In step 12, guidance broadcast / guidance display is performed based on the input timetable information. For example, at the (m-1) station, when the train two trains before the train A departs, the connection information "The limited express train B from time t ₁ connects with the ordinary train A at the time t ₁ ". Is output from the guidance station device 1, and the guidance is displayed. Similarly, at the m station, after the train two trains before the train C has departed, the guide display "Train C will be a rapid train after leaving this station."

At x station, a guide display is displayed saying that "train D can transfer to the rapid train C at m stations." In this way, detailed guidance related to other stations is provided at each station. According to this configuration, the guidance control device 63
Create detailed guidance information for each station at each station and other stations and send detailed information and guidance information for each station to the guidance station device at each station to provide detailed guidance at each station. You can do it, and you don't have to have a timetable of other stations, so it doesn't increase the memory of the guidance station device.

Further, even if the operation control system 64 is connected and even if there is a sudden operation change, the guide control device 63 automatically creates the guide information according to the corrected timetable. The information is sent to the guidance station device at each station, and information can be provided to each station in real time and with high reliability.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, the central processing unit creates guide information related to the schedules of the own station and other stations for each station, and the guide station device of each station is provided with the schedule of its own station. By sending information and guidance information, detailed and reliable guidance can be provided. Further, since it is not necessary for the guidance station device of each station to have the timetable information of all stations, a low-priced and reliable guidance station device can be provided.

Furthermore, even if there is a sudden operation change by connecting to the operation management system, the guide control device automatically creates the guide information according to the corrected timetable, so the corrected guide information is available at each station. The information is transmitted to the guidance station device, and information can be provided to each station in real time and with high reliability.
