Detailed Description of the Invention

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a delivery acceptance machine suitable for automatically accepting a delivery request for a parcel or the like. "Conventional technology" Conventionally, when sending parcels etc. to the other party, the sender either brings the parcel etc. to the post office, or brings it to the agency of the transportation company that handles the courier service and sends it to the request address. After describing the necessary items such as the name of the recipient, the sender's address, the name of the sender, etc., the request form is attached to the parcel and the delivery fee is paid and the delivery request is made. By the way, in the delivery request method as described above, when the transportation company (or the agency) makes the delivery requester an individual,
There is no particular problem with the processing of the delivery request underwriting work, but it can be carried out smoothly, but if the delivery requester is targeted at companies in office building districts in large cities etc., the handling volume of parcels etc. will be dramatically increased. In view of customer service, a method has been adopted in recent years in which a transportation company (or an agency) goes to a delivery request source (company) to pick up parcels and the like. "Problems to be solved by the invention" By the way, some of the companies mentioned above have signed a contract with a specific transportation company and have them come to pick up the parcel etc. whenever the delivery becomes necessary. There are companies that are asked to deliver the products and the associated delivery charges are settled monthly. However, as described above, a transportation company that has a contract with a company and uses a monthly settlement method can receive a certain amount of delivery requests from the contracted company on a monthly basis, but
There were the following defects. (1) In many cases, the time for receiving a delivery request is irregular, which may lead to the inability to promptly respond to the delivery request from the viewpoint of manpower. (2) In addition, if there are multiple contracted companies such as the above, especially in an office building where many companies live together,
The company that received the delivery request can immediately go to pick up the parcels, but the company that did not get in touch with them could not immediately go to pick up the parcels. In view of the above circumstances, the applicant proposed "delivery acceptance machine" in Japanese Patent Application No. 63-33723. This delivery acceptance machine is installed in an office building or the like where many companies live together, and is capable of automatically accepting delivery requests for parcels and the like from contracted companies. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and it is needless to say that the delivery acceptance machine according to the applicant's earlier application can be further improved and the efficiency of delivery acceptance work can be improved. The purpose of the present invention is to reliably recognize the input of a product and prevent misidentification of the delivered product or the sender due to delivery. "Means for Solving the Problem" The present invention relates to a card reader for reading a card in which operator data is stored in advance, and whether or not the card read by the card reader is a customer card.

Using the customer card provided that the storage unit that stores the read bar code data and the key that instructs the end of the delivery transaction of the delivery are operated on condition that the insertion of the And a printer which issues a receipt on which necessary data including the stored barcode data of the delivery is printed. In addition, the present invention unlocks the collection door for taking out the delivery stored in the delivery storage on the condition that the determination unit determines that the card for the staff member has been inserted, and performs a detailed inspection process accompanying the collection processing. A key for instructing execution of the collecting door lock mechanism that locks the collecting door on condition that the closing processing of the collecting door is detected and the closing state of the collecting door is detected, and the collecting processing accompanying the collecting processing And a communication control unit for transmitting, to a handy terminal, collection data for each customer of all accepted deliveries in the delivery storage unit on condition that a key for instructing execution of . [Operation] According to the present invention, after the customer inserts the customer card into the card reader, the reader pen of the bar code decoder can be used to read the bar code data of the sticky note pasted on the delivery to be put. To do. When the bar code decoder successfully reads the bar code data of the pasting slip, the shutter lock of the insertion slot into which the delivery is inserted is automatically released, and the delivery can be inserted. When a customer puts in a delivery item, the delivery item is stored in the delivery item storage unit, and at the same time, the loading detection unit inside the loading port detects the loading of the delivery item, whereby the shutter of the loading port is locked again. When the customer wants to add more deliveries, the barcode decoder reads the barcode data on the sticker before inserting the package. After that, the barcode data is read and inserted as many times as the number of deliveries to be inserted. It will be. By the way, the passage detection signals are supplied in a predetermined order from a plurality of passage detection sensors provided inside the insertion slot to detect the insertion of the delivery item, and the storage unit stores the read barcode data each time. Memorize Then, when the key for instructing the end of the delivery transaction is operated, the receipt printed with the necessary data including the barcode data of the delivered article stored using the customer card is printed by the printer.

On the other hand, when the clerk's card is inserted, the collection door for unlocking the delivery items stored in the delivery storage unit is unlocked, enabling the collection process, and instructing the execution of the detailed examination process associated with the collection process. When the key is operated, the customer-by-customer pickup data of all accepted deliveries in the delivery storage unit is transmitted to the handy terminal. Then, when the close inspection process is completed and the closed state of the pickup door is detected, the pickup door is locked again, and the pickup and close inspection by the staff is completed. [Embodiment] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is a block diagram of a delivery acceptance machine that accepts deliveries such as parcels. The delivery acceptance machine 1 is, for example, a plurality of contracted companies that have a transportation contract with a transportation company. It is installed in a corner of an existing office building. In this case, a customer card (not shown) in which predetermined data such as a customer number is stored in advance is issued from the transportation company to the contracted company at the time of the transportation contract. Further, the staff member of the transportation company carries a staff member card (not shown) in which predetermined data such as a staff member number is stored in advance, which is used when collecting the delivery items in the delivery acceptance machine 1. By the way, the delivery acceptance machine 1 is provided with a card reader 2 for reading data from an inserted card. The card reader 2 is configured to output the data read from the inserted card to the central control unit 3 and temporarily hold the read card inside, and when returning the card, the internal It is configured to allow you to return a card that has been temporarily suspended. The central control unit 3 determines whether the inserted card is the customer card, the clerk card, or another card (hereinafter referred to as an invalid card) based on the data output from the card reader 2. It has a function to judge. When the determination function determines that the card is an invalid card, the central control unit 3 controls the guide unit 4 to display an alarm and immediately controls the invalid card to be ejected from the card reader 2. . On the other hand, when it is determined that the card is a customer card or a clerk's card, the central control unit 3 temporarily holds the determined card in the card reader 2 for delivery acceptance transaction or delivery collection as described later. When the processing is completed,
The temporarily held card is controlled to be returned from the card reader 2 to a customer or a staff member. The guide section 4 shows an operation procedure of the delivery acceptance machine 1 for a customer, and is configured to show the procedure by a lamp or the like according to the progress of the operation. Further, the central control unit 3 reads predetermined data such as a customer number from the customer card, while reading predetermined data such as a staff number from the staff card, and these data are stored. It is stored in the unit 5. That is, as will be described later, the storage unit 5 stores the bar code data of the sticky note attached to the delivery together with the customer data according to the delivery acceptance transaction with the customer, and at the time of collecting the received delivery by the staff. The memory is cleared after the bar code data for each customer is output. Next, the reference numeral 6 is a bar code decoder, which is used to detect and read the bar code by the reader pen 7 connected thereto. That is, a sticker attached to a delivery item generally has a bar code representing, for example, a 12-digit serial number, for understanding the delivery status of the delivery item and facilitating the management of inquiries from customers. In addition, the delivery acceptance machine 1 can identify each delivery item received from the customer.
The barcode of the sticky note of the delivery is traced by the reader pen 7 so that the barcode can be read by the barcode decoder 6 before being accepted. The bar code data read by the bar code decoder 6 is stored in the storage unit 5 together with predetermined data such as the customer number read by the card reader 2. Reference numeral 8 is an insertion port into which the delivery whose barcode data has been read as described above is inserted. A shutter 9 is provided at the insertion port 8, and the shutter 9 can be locked and unlocked by an insertion port locking mechanism 10 in its open / closed state. Further, inside the insertion port 8 (shutter 9), there is provided an input detection unit 11 for detecting a delivered product and detecting that the delivered product has been delivered, and further inside thereof, the delivered delivery product. A delivery storage unit 12 for storing is provided. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, a guide plate 8a serving as a guide surface for guiding the delivery to the delivery storage section 12 obliquely below is provided inside the input port 8 and the guide plate 8a is provided on the guide plate 8a. On the other hand, a guide plate 8b is provided parallel to the delivery plate so as to prevent the delivery product from jumping out. Further, through holes are provided at appropriate places of the guide plates 8a and 8b,
A front passage detection sensor S ₁ and a rear passage detection sensor S _{2 each including a} light projector and a light receiver are provided at positions corresponding to the through holes. Each of these passage detection sensors S ₁ and S ₂ detects the passage (presence) of the light beam by intersecting the light beam with the guide plate (delivery item sliding on the guide plate), and the passage direction is along the moving direction of the delivery item. Are spaced apart from each other. The output signal of the sensor S ₁ · S ₂ is designed to be supplied to the determination circuit 11a, as shown in FIG. 3, the decision circuit 11a, the two sensors S ₁ · S ₂ gas given In order,
That is, the front-stage sensor to the rear-stage sensor

[ON
~ OFF ~ ON], it is detected that a delivery item has been input, and an insertion detection signal indicating that is input is output. By the way, the inlet lock mechanism 10 is connected to the central controller 3
The shutter 9 is locked (closed) under the condition that the bar code data of the delivery is read by the bar code decoder 6 as described above.
The shutter 9 is locked in a closed state on the condition that the delivery detector 11 detects the delivery. That is, when the shutter 9 is to be locked in the closed state, the insertion port locking mechanism 10 is provided with a sensor for detecting that the shutter 9 has closed the insertion port 8, and the output of the sensor and the insertion detection unit. It is configured so that the lock operation is performed based on the AND condition with the closing detection from 11. On the other hand, reference numeral 13 is a collection port for collecting the delivery items input from the input port 8. The collection port 13 is provided with a collection door 14, and the collection door 14 is provided with a collection door lock mechanism 15. The open / closed state can be locked and released. Then, by opening the pickup door 14, the delivery can be taken out from the delivery storage section 12 described above. By the way, the collection door lock mechanism 15 is controlled by the central control unit 3, and the collection door 14 is locked when the card reader 2 detects the insertion of the clerk's card as described above. (The closed state) is released, and the operation section 16 operates a key for instructing the execution of the detailed inspection processing in association with the collection processing of the delivery, and the close processing is completed, and the closed state of the collection door is detected. To the condition
Alternatively, as will be described later, on condition that the key for instructing only the return of the staff card is operated by the operation unit 16 and the closed state of the pickup door is detected, the pickup door 14 can be locked in the closed state. It is configured. That is, when the pickup door 14 is to be locked in the closed state, the pickup door lock mechanism 15 is provided with a sensor for detecting that the pickup door 14 has closed the pickup port 13, and the output of the sensor and the key The lock operation is performed based on the AND condition with the operation detection of. The operation section 16 is provided with three keys which are operated by a customer or a staff member: an "end key", a "cancel key", and a "return key". The "end key" is a key for instructing the end of the delivery process of the delivery by the customer, and is operated when the process is finished, and this key is also used for scrutinizing the delivery collection process by the staff. A key for instructing the execution of processing, which is operated when starting the collection processing and the collection data accompanying the processing. Further, the "cancel key" is a key for instructing the customer to insert and cancel the delivery, and it has been found that, for example, the delivery whose barcode is read by the barcode decoder 6 cannot be inserted through the inlet 8. It is operated at the time of the occasion. Further, the "return key" is a key for instructing only the return of the clerk's card by the clerk. For example, in the case of the process of not collecting the stored delivery items at the time of maintenance or failure of the delivery acceptance machine 1, the process is performed. This operation is performed when the card reader 2 is returned and only the staff card is returned, and the return operation by the card reader 2 is locked when the closed state of the pickup door 14 is confirmed. If executed. By the way, when the operation key is operated by the customer, the printer 17 issues a receipt of the delivery item put in by the transaction, for example, the one having the contents as shown in FIG. When the end key is operated by, it is assumed that the detailed examination process associated with the pickup process is executed, and the pickup data for each customer of all accepted deliveries in the deliverable storage unit 12, for example, as shown in FIG. The content having the above content is transmitted to the handy terminal device 50 via the communication control unit 18. That is, the printer 17 is connected to the central control unit 3,
During one transaction, the predetermined data such as the customer number stored in the storage unit 5 and the bar code data read by the bar code decoder 6 and stored in the storage unit 5 are printed as shown in FIG. Will be issued as a receipt. Further, the communication control unit 18 is connected to the central control unit 3 and is also connected to the handy terminal device 50 brought by an attendant who came to collect the delivery, and is stored in the storage unit 5 at the end of the collection. The customer-by-customer pickup data of all accepted deliveries in the delivery storage unit 12 is transmitted to the handy terminal device 50. When the central control unit 3 determines that the customer-specific collection data to the handy terminal 50 is normally transferred,
Control is performed to clear all the customer-specific pickup data in the storage unit 5, and when it is determined that the transfer is not successful, the printer 17 is controlled to issue a print, and the print issue ends. At this time, the customer-specific collection data in the storage unit 5 is cleared in the same manner as described above. By the way, the handy terminal device 50 may receive the bar code data of all the deliveries stored in the delivery accepting machine 1 for each customer when the clerk tries to collect the delivery from the delivery accepting machine 1. In addition to being possible, after the collection processing, it is configured to be connected to a workstation at a collection center or the like so that the received customer-specific collection data can be transferred to the workstation side. It has the effect that the center can quickly perform processing such as counting by customer and settlement of charges. On the other hand, in the delivery acceptance machine 1, the internal monitor 19 has the central control unit 3.
It is configured to be connected to and can be monitored during maintenance or failure. Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. Step SP1: The central control unit 3 judges whether or not a card has been inserted into the card reader 2, and when the insertion of the card is detected, the card is taken into the card reader 2 and written in the card. The data is read and the data is output to the central control unit 3. Step SP2: The central control unit 3 determines, based on the data, whether the insertion card is a customer card, a clerk card, or an invalid card that is neither of them. If it is determined that the card is for a customer, the process proceeds to step SP10, if it is determined to be a card for a clerk, the process proceeds to step SP30, and if it is determined to be an invalid card, the process proceeds to step SP50. Step SP10: Since the insertion of the customer card is detected in the above step SP2, the operation of inserting the delivery item by the customer is started thereafter. Then, in this step SP10, it is judged whether or not the bar code data of the sticky note attached to the delivery is read by the bar code data 6, and if YES in the normal reading, the process proceeds to step SP12. In the case of other NO, the process proceeds to step SP11. Step SP11: It is determined whether or not the end key of the operation unit 16 for instructing the end of the delivery process of the customer has been operated. If YES, the process proceeds to step SP20 and NO.
In the case of, the process returns to step SP10, and it is determined whether the barcode is read or the end key is operated. Step SP12: Since the bar code data has been read normally, the central control unit 3 outputs a signal for releasing the locked state of the shutter 9 to the insertion port lock mechanism 10, whereby the lock of the shutter 9 is released. . Step SP13: The central control unit 3 checks whether or not the delivery has been inserted through the insertion port 8 in which the shutter 9 is unlocked.
The determination is made by monitoring the closing detection signal from the closing determination circuit 11a of the closing detection unit 11. If YES, the process proceeds to step SP14, and if NO, the process proceeds to step SP16. Step SP14: It is determined that the delivery has the bar code data read by the bar code decoder 6 by the customer by the detection of the input, and
The bar code data is stored in the storage unit 5 for each customer. Step SP15: The central control unit 3 outputs a signal for locking the shutter 9 to the insertion port locking mechanism 10, whereby the shutter 9 is locked again. In this case, as described above, the AND condition between the output of the sensor provided in the closing port lock mechanism 10 for detecting that the shutter 9 has closed the closing port 8 and the closing detection signal from the closing detection unit 11 is determined. The lock operation is performed based on this. In addition, at the time of insertion, for example, when a delivery which is about to be inserted is pulled back in the middle of the delivery (there may be a case in which the delivery destination is mistakenly noticed and then pulled out), the passage detection sensor S ₁ Since S ₂ cannot operate in the predetermined order, the closing detection signal is not output, and therefore
This AND condition does not hold. Then, returning to the step SP10, thereafter, reading the barcode data for the number of deliveries to be inserted (step SP10) and inserting (step SP13) are repeated, and the barcode data of the deliveries is stored for each customer (step SP1).
4) be done. Step SP16: If the closing detection is not made, it is determined whether or not the cancel key of the operation unit 16 is operated, and the operated YE
If S, proceed to step SP17, and if NO, proceed to step SP18. Step SP17: Assuming that the delivery key having the barcode data read by the barcode decoder 6 has been canceled by operating the cancel key,
The bar code data is erased without being stored in the storage unit 5. Further, in order to prevent the input of other deliveries for which the barcode data has not been read, the process proceeds to step SP15 and the shutter 9 is locked. Step SP18: If the cancel key has not been operated, it is determined whether or not the end key of the operation unit 16 has been operated. If operated, the procedure proceeds to step SP19, and if NO, to the step SP13. Returning to this, it is determined whether the closing detection is performed, the cancel key is operated, or the end key is operated. Step SP19: The end key is operated to cancel the insertion of the delivery having the bar code data read by the bar code decoder 6 and to end all transaction operations. The data is erased without being stored in, the shutter 9 is locked, and the process proceeds to step SP20. Step SP20: During one transaction after inserting the customer card, it is judged whether or not there is a delivered product by the customer based on the presence or absence of transaction data (bar code data), and if there is a transaction YES To step SP21, and if NO, to step SP22. Step SP21: The central control unit 3 reads predetermined data such as the customer number stored in the storage unit 5 and the bar code decoder 6 during one transaction after inserting the customer card, and stores the data in the storage unit 5. The stored bar code data is printed and issued by the printer 17 as shown in FIG. Step SP22: Assuming that the customer has completed the operation of inserting the delivery and the processing of issuing the receipt, the customer card temporarily held in the card reader 2 is returned to the customer and the transaction is completed. Then, the process returns to step SP1 to prepare for the next transaction. Next, the case where the insertion of the staff card is detected in step SP2 will be described in step SP30 and subsequent steps. Step SP30: The central control unit 3 outputs a signal for releasing the locked state of the pickup door 14 to the pickup door lock mechanism 15,
This unlocks the collection door 14. Step SP31: The clerk takes the unlocked collection door 14
When the collection processing is performed, the delivered articles stored in the delivered article storage section 12 are collected, while maintenance or abnormal processing is performed. Step SP32: It is determined whether or not the key of the operation unit 16 (which also serves as the "end key" in this embodiment) for instructing the execution of the detailed inspection processing by the attendant when collecting the delivery is operated, If YES, the procedure proceeds to step SP33, and if NO, the procedure proceeds to step SP40. Before operating the end key, the clerk must use the connection code from the communication control unit 18 to transfer the customer-specific collection data stored in the storage unit 5 to the handy terminal 50 when the delivery is collected. The work of pulling out and connecting to the handy terminal device 50 is performed. Step SP33: The communication control unit 18 determines whether or not the handy terminal device 50 is connected. If the connection is confirmed YES, the process proceeds to step SP34, and if NO, the step SP35.
Proceed to step (3) to generate an alarm sound or the like from the internal monitor 19 and have a staff member check the connection. Step SP34: If the connection is confirmed, the storage unit 5
The customer-specific collection data stored therein is transferred to the memory in the handy terminal 50 via the communication control unit 18. Step SP36: The communication control unit 18 communicates with the handy terminal 50, and determines whether or not the transfer processing of the step SP34 has been normally completed.
If it is NO, proceed to step SP38. Step SP37: Since the transfer processing of the customer-by-customer pickup data is normally completed, the central control unit 3 clears all the customer-by-customer pickup data in the storage unit 5, and then proceeds to step SP41. Step SP38: By the way, if it is not possible to detect in step SP36 that the transfer processing of the customer-specific collection data has been completed normally, in this step SP38 it is determined whether or not this transfer processing abnormality has occurred continuously, If YES for continuous abnormality, proceed to step SP39.
Proceed to SP35, and generate an alarm sound or the like from the internal monitor 19, let the staff check the connection, and then make the transfer process again. Step SP39: If transfer process abnormalities occur consecutively, the printer 17
As a result, after the customer-specific collection data having the same content as the transfer data is printed and issued, the process proceeds to step SP37. Step SP40: On the other hand, the operation unit 1 in step SP32
If the operation of the end key of 6 is not detected, for example, it is determined whether the return key operated in the case of processing that does not collect the stored delivery such as maintenance of the delivery acceptance machine 1 or failure, etc. If YES is selected, step SP4
If it is NO, the process returns to step SP32 to determine whether the end key or the return key is operated. Step SP41: If the end key is operated to complete collection and receipt of customer-specific collection data, or if the return key is operated to end maintenance or abnormal processing, the collection door 14 unlocked in step SP30 is locked again. Therefore, based on the output of the sensor provided in the pickup door lock mechanism 15, it is determined whether the pickup door 14 is closed, and it is detected that the pickup door 14 is closed.
If S, proceed to step SP43, and if NO, proceed to step SP42. Step SP42: An alarm sound or the like is generated by the internal monitor 19 indicating that the collection door 14 is not closed, and the staff member confirms the collection door 14. Step SP43: The central control unit 3 uses the collection door lock mechanism 15
A signal for locking the pickup door 14 is output to the pickup door 14 and the pickup door 14 is locked again. After that, the process proceeds to the step SP22, and the clerk's card temporarily held in the card reader 2 is returned to the clerk on the assumption that the clerk has finished collecting or maintaining the delivery or the abnormal process, and the process is finished. Furthermore, if the insertion of an invalid card is detected in step SP2, the process proceeds to step SP50, and the guide unit 4
While displaying the alarm, etc., immediately step SP22
Then, control is performed so that the invalid card can be ejected from the card reader 2. In addition, in the above embodiment, the two passage detection sensors of the front stage and the rear stage are provided, but it goes without saying that more sensors may be provided to make the passage detection more accurate. "Effects of the Invention" Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects. (1) Even if the time of receiving a delivery request from a customer is irregular, the delivery request is automatically accepted with the customer card, so that the delivery request can be always dealt with. Further, it is possible to solve the problem that the customer cannot immediately go to pick up the delivery, which has been insufficiently contacted, as in the conventional case. As a result, it is possible to efficiently perform the delivery request work and improve the customer service. Furthermore, each of the deliveries requested by the customer is accepted after the barcode of the sticky note attached to the deliveries is read, and the barcode data is printed on the receipt when acceptance is completed. Since it is configured to be issued and issued, the customer can confirm each of the deliveries requested for delivery. (2) Collected data by customer regarding delivered items
The clerk can send it to the handy terminal that he / she brings with him when he / she picks it up.The handy terminal also connects the received customer-specific pickup data to a workstation at a pickup center, etc., and the received customer-specific pickup data is sent to the workstation side. This has the effect that the collection center for each customer and the processing such as the charge settlement can be performed quickly at the collection center. (3) Providing passage detection sensors at multiple locations inside the inlet,
Since the loading is detected based on the order in which signals are obtained from these sensors, the loading can be reliably detected even when the delivery is pulled back during the loading, for example.
