[0006]

By the way, since the monorail type traveling path switching device is provided with the rotating handle on the turntable, it obstructs the passage of people and impairs the appearance. Further, since the turntable is manually rotated, it requires labor for the rotation work, and it is difficult to place a large golf cart on the turntable to rotate it, and therefore it cannot be used for a large golf cart. .

Further, in the electromagnetic induction type, it is necessary to arrange the traveling path switching device in accordance with the layout of the golf course, the position of the golf cart hangar, the club house, etc., and it takes a lot of time and labor to design the traveling path. It was In addition, in order to prevent the interference of the AC magnetic field of the guide wire and to normally operate the collision prevention sensor, it is necessary to separate the guide wires by 2 m or more. Therefore, in many places such as in front of the hangar where many traveling paths are dense, It required a road switching device and a large space.

Therefore, the present invention can be easily rotated by a turntable that automatically rotates and can be applied to a large golf cart. Further, since it is not necessary to provide a rotating handle, the appearance is not spoiled. Furthermore, by adopting a turntable device for the electromagnetic induction type golf cart, the installation place of the traveling road switching device can be reduced, and the traveling road switching device can be concentrated in one place, so that the traveling road that matches the layout of the golf course The layout of the switching device can be easily designed.

The current direction from the oscillator 30 is the communication part 53.
The alternating current flows in the same direction as the current direction.

Therefore, since the forward direction portion 59 and the backward direction portion 58 are opposed to each other, the current directions in the forward direction portion 59 and the backward direction portion 58 are opposite, and the forward direction portion 59 and the backward direction portion 58 are opposite. The AC magnetic fields cancel or interfere with each other at the meeting portion 48, and the left and right pickup coils 15 and 16 of the electromagnetic induction golf cart 19 no longer detect the AC magnetic fields. The electromagnetic induction type golf cart 19 stops on the turntable as shown in FIG.

The forward direction portion 59 and the reverse direction portion 58 in the turntable are aligned with each other and are arranged so as to pass through the center of the turntable 20. Therefore, when facing the end portions of the respective traveling roads, they coincide with the extension lines of the entry line portions or the exit line portions of the respective traveling road ends.

Since the turntable 20 is generally made of iron, in order to supplement the magnetic field absorption, the turntable side guide line 6
An alternating current of 1500 Hz and 600 mA is applied to 0.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, six proximity switches are provided below the turntable 20. The proximity switch 37 is set so as to face the facing plate 35 fixed to the arm 28 when the turntable 20 faces the first traveling road end 38. The proximity switch 37 determines the stop position of the turntable 20 to face the first road end 49. The proximity switch 37 is fixed at a position that determines the stop position of the turntable so as to face the ends of each traveling path. The proximity switch 37 is electrically connected to the turntable control circuit 34 fixed to the lower portion of the turntable 20.

The electromagnetic induction type golf cart 19 which has moved from the hangar 2 along the traveling road 6 to the first traveling road end 38 is
The AC magnetic field is no longer detected at the meeting portion 48 of the first traveling road end portion 38, and the vehicle stops at the first traveling road end portion. When the manager of the master room 9 presses the switch 62 corresponding to the first traveling road end portion 38 of the operation panel 5, a signal indicating the first traveling road end portion 38 is controlled from the key code setting unit 65 in the operation panel 5. Circuit 67
Is sent to the lamp display circuit 66. Lamp display circuit 66
Turns on the lamp 63 corresponding to the first road end 38. The control circuit 67 converts the signal into serial data and sends it to the FM transmitter 73 together with the transmitter control signal.
The transmitter 73 transmits the FM signal. The FM signal is received by the FM receiver 69 in the turntable control circuit 34 and transmitted to the microcomputer control circuit 70. The microcomputer control circuit 70 activates the proximity switch 37 that determines the stop position of the turntable 20 to face the first road end 38 from the signal and the data from the key code setting unit 72.

The rotation of the motor 27 is transmitted to the index 25 via the transmission 26, and the rotary shaft 23 is rotated by the index 25 and the turntable 20 is rotated. When the proximity switch 37 faces the facing plate 35 of the arm 28, the proximity switch 37 causes the turntable control circuit 34 to move.
Send a feedback signal to. Upon receiving the feedback signal, the microcomputer control circuit 70 operates the stop circuit 71. The stop circuit 71 separates the gear connecting the motor 27 and the index 25 in the transmission 26 so that the rotation of the motor 27 is not transmitted to the index 25. When the turntable 20 is stopped in a state of facing the end of the first traveling road, the electromagnetic induction type golf cart 19 is started, and the encounter portion 48 in the turntable 20 does not detect an AC magnetic field and stops on the turntable 20. .

Next, the manager of the master room 9 refers to the schedule table in which the traveling route of the electromagnetic induction type golf cart 19 is displayed, and the traveling road end of the electromagnetic induction type golf cart 19 to the next traveling route. Switch 62 of the operation panel 5 corresponding to the section
push. If the future traveling schedule is in the first hall, the manager pushes the switch 62 of the operation panel 5 corresponding to the second traveling road end 39, and the key code setting unit 65 causes the lamp display circuit 66 and the control circuit 67. Send a signal to. The lamp display circuit 66 turns off the lamp 63 corresponding to the first road end 38 and turns on the lamp 63 corresponding to the second road end 39. The control circuit 67 converts the signal into serial data and sends it to the FM transmitter 73 together with the transmitter control signal,
The FM signal is transmitted from the FM transmitter 73. The FM signal is received by the FM receiver 69 in the turntable control circuit 34 and transmitted to the microcomputer control circuit 70. The microcomputer control circuit 70 activates the proximity switch 37 that determines the stop position when facing the end of the second traveling road from the signal and the data from the key code setting unit 72, and sends a signal to the stop circuit 71. Connect the gears of the transmission 26.

When the turntable 20 rotates and the proximity switch 37 faces the facing plate 35 of the arm 28, a feedback signal is sent from the proximity switch 37 to the turntable control circuit 34, and the turntable control circuit 34 is sent to the stop circuit 71. A signal is sent to stop the turntable 20. Here, when the electromagnetic induction type golf cart 19 is started, it is guided by a guide wire arranged at the end 39 of the second traveling road and travels along the traveling road to the first hole.

The signal transmission method to the turntable control circuit 34 may be wired. In that case, the operation panel 5 is installed in a place where the traveling path switching device 4 can be seen, and the cable is arranged from the operation panel 5 to the turntable control circuit 34.
The rotation of the turntable can be controlled by operating the operation panel 5 with a caddy or the like. In this case, since the signal is sent by wire, the signal is less likely to receive noise, and since the person who operates the device performs it right next to the traveling path switching device 4, malfunctions are reduced.

In the case of operation by FM, the remote control for operating the automatic traveling golf cart 3 is mainly FM system. Therefore, by using the FM system for controlling the traveling path switching device 4, a special circuit design is made. There is no need to do it, and it can be operated by the remote control owned by the caddy.
