Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic ticket gate installed at a ticket gate of a railway or an airport, for example, and more particularly, to a security system for controlling the opening and closing of a passage gate according to the position and speed of a pedestrian. Regarding high automatic ticket gates.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An automatic ticket gate installed in a railway station will be described below as an example. As shown in FIGS. 13 to 15, a ticket gate passage formed between device main bodies 131, 131 parallel to left and right. The opening and closing operation of the door 133 at the exit side of the exit 132 permits and regulates the passage of the pedestrians 134a and 134b.

[0003] In this case, while reading the ticket gate data of the passerby, several transmissive photoelectric detection sensors 135 arranged along the ticket gate passage 132 detect the passerby to control the opening and closing of the door 133. I have.

[0004] However, this kind of automatic ticket gate detects opening and closing of the door at a fixed timing without detecting the passing position and the passing speed at the time when a passerby is detected. In some cases, doors hit passers-by, or passers-by unexpectedly collided.

[0005] For example, as shown in FIG.
When the passerby 134b passes with no bills or invalid tickets immediately after the passage of the pass 34a, the door 133 interlocks with this.
Sometimes hit the passerby 134a during the closing operation.

[0006] In addition, if the ticket determination is delayed due to the conveyance of the ticket or the occurrence of a jam, the passerby has reached the center of the passage, and if it is determined that the ticket is invalid, the recognition of the door that closes immediately before is delayed. And collided with the door. In addition, tall people with long limbs, children who are likely to move irregularly, and when passers-by and passers-by have peculiar baggage, there is a risk of false detection and the door hitting the passerby, especially In the case of a passing person, there was a risk of falling.

[0007]

Accordingly, the present invention provides a plurality of types of closing control modes in accordance with various traffic conditions of a passing object when restricting the passing of a passing object. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic ticket gate capable of performing a highly safe traffic regulation operation according to the traffic condition of a traffic body by selecting a traffic ticket.

[0008]

According to the first aspect of the present invention,
An automatic ticket gate for closing control of a passage gate based on detection data of a traffic position detecting means for detecting a traffic position of a traffic body, wherein the control of closing the passage gate is changed based on the detection data of the traffic position detecting means. A change means is provided.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided an automatic ticket gate which controls the closing of a passage gate based on detection data of a traffic speed detecting means for detecting a traffic speed of a traffic object. And a changing means for changing the closing control of the passage gate based on the above.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, when the traffic position detecting means detects the traffic at the front part of the passage at the time of detecting the traffic regulation data, the passage gate is closed more than when the traffic is detected at the center of the passage. A change means for increasing the speed is provided.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, when the passage position detecting means detects a passing body at the rear part of the passage at the time of detecting the passage restriction data, the closing speed of the passage gate is controlled to a high speed closing position to a middle closing position, Thereafter, a change means for performing low-speed closing control is provided.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a changing means for controlling the passage gate to be closed at a low speed when the passage position detecting means detects a passing object near the passage gate in the rear part of the passage at the time of detecting the traffic regulation data. It is characterized by the following.

According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, when the traffic regulation data is detected, the traffic speed detecting means detects the traffic speed at a plurality of detection positions in the direction of the passage, and determines the minimum detected speed as the traffic speed of the passage body. And a changing means for controlling the closing of the motor.

According to a seventh aspect of the present invention, there is provided a control device for controlling a closing operation of the passage gate when a passing object comes into contact with the passage gate.

[0015]

According to the present invention, when restricting the passage of a passing object, the changing means determines the passage based on the positional relationship between the passing object and the passage gate based on the detection of the passing position of the passing object by the passage position detecting means. Change to the setting condition suitable for gate closing control. Similarly, when restricting the passage of a passing object, the changing unit is suitable for closing control of the passage gate based on the positional relationship between the passing object and the passage gate based on the detection of the passage speed of the passing object by the passage speed detecting unit. Change to the setting conditions.

Further, when restricting the passage of the traffic based on the traffic regulation data, if the traffic position detecting means detects the traffic at the front stage of the passage, there is no possibility that the passage gate will hit the traffic, so the changing means is located at the center of the passage. To increase the closing speed of the passage gate more than when a passing object is detected.

Similarly, when restricting the passage of a traffic body based on the traffic regulation data, if the traffic position detecting means detects the traffic body at the rear part of the passage, there is a possibility that the passage gate will hit the traffic body, so that the changing means is provided for the passage gate. High-speed closing control is performed until the closing speed reaches the middle closing position, and then low-speed closing control is performed.

Further, when restricting the passage of the traffic based on the traffic regulation data, if the traffic position detecting means detects the traffic near the passage gate in the rear part of the passage, there is a sufficient risk that the passage gate will hit the traffic. The changing means controls the passage gate to close at a low speed.

Further, when the traffic is restricted based on the traffic control data, the traffic speed detecting means detects the traffic speed at a plurality of detection positions in the direction of the passage, and the fast moving limbs or baggage and the slow moving traffic are detected. The changing means controls the closing of the passage gate by distinguishing itself and the minimum detected speed as the passing speed of the passing body.

Further, when the passing body comes into contact with the passage gate, the changing means stops the closing control of the passage gate and immediately stops the contact with the passing body.

[0021]

As a result, when the passage gate is closed, the closing control is performed after the positional relationship between the passage member and the passage gate and the passage speed are determined, so that the contact between the passage member and the passage gate is performed. Avoided traffic regulation can be performed, and highly secure ticket gate regulation according to the traffic condition of the traffic body can be performed.

For example, when it is determined that there is a risk that a pedestrian may come into contact with the passage gate when the passage gate closing data is detected, if the passage gate is set so as to be closed only to half the closed position, Can be sufficiently suppressed.

When the position of a pedestrian is detected on the side of the entrance of the passage when the closing data of the passage gate is detected, there is no possibility of contact with the passage gate closing on the exit side. It is possible to quickly and quickly perform the closing control, so that the pedestrian can quickly recognize the gate closing and stop.

If the position of a pedestrian is detected on the exit side of the passage when the closing data of the passage gate is detected, the passage gate may be closed on the way since the passage gate may be closed on the exit side. High-speed closing control to the position, then low-speed closing control and two-stage closing control, the passage gate does not reach the passage restriction position in the center of the passage at the time of high-speed closing control, so the passage gate does not hit the pedestrian Close control in a short time at high speed to the middle position. On the other hand, at the time of low-speed closing control, the passage gate may completely close to the traffic regulation position at the center of the passage and hit the pedestrian, but because of the low speed, the closing operation is gentle to gentle people, and even if it hits, the load may be reduced. Small and safe.

When the position of a pedestrian is detected as being near the gate on the exit side of the passage when the closing data of the passage gate is detected, the passage gate is controlled to close at a low speed and the gate is closed. The operation can be easily recognized, and highly safe traffic regulation can be performed.

Further, if a passerby is detected at a plurality of detection positions in the direction of the passage, a tall person with long limbs, a child who is likely to be moved irregularly, and even a passerby who has peculiar baggage can be made accurate. be able to. In particular, natural limb movements and baggage swings at the time of passage are detected at high speed, so if the slowest detected traffic detection speed is specified as a passer, the passer itself and other detection elements are clearly distinguished. Separately, close control with high detection performance can be performed. In addition, if the closing control of the passage gate is stopped when the passing object comes into contact with the passage gate, strong contact or collision with the passing object can be avoided, and the safety can be improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1 and 2 show an automatic ticket gate used in a station service. This automatic ticket gate is provided with a double-opening entrance gate 12a and an exit gate 12b at front and rear positions in the ticket gate direction of a ticket gate body 11, It has a ticket slot 13 for inserting and removing a magnetic ticket, a ticket discharge port 14, and a guidance display 15 on the upper surface, and further along a ticket gate passage 16 formed between the ticket gate machine bodies 11 parallel to the left and right. 1 to 8th traffic detection sensor S1
S8 is provided to allow or restrict traffic based on the used ticket data and the detection signal of the pedestrian 17.

The above-mentioned guidance display 15 is used for the ticket gate main body 11.
Is installed on the upper surface of the exit side, and the passport 17 displays the result of ticket judgment, ticket type, and ticket gate use guidance in characters.

The first to eighth traffic detection sensors S1 to S1
8, the first to fifth traffic detection sensors S1 to S5 are arranged in the ticket gate direction along the inner side surface of one of the ticket gate main bodies 11, and are installed on the upper surface of the ticket gate main body 11 with the same length. Sixth to eighth traffic detection sensors S6 to S8 are arranged on the standing frame 18 thus formed.

In this case, the first to fifth traffic detection sensors S1
S5 detects the passer-by 17 using an image detection sensor that detects a change in the state of a moving person or a medium over a wide area,
The sixth to eighth traffic detection sensors S6 to S8 are provided with a floodlight on the inner surface of one of the upright frames of the ticket gate main bodies 11, 11 facing each other, and receive light on the inner surface of the upright frame of the other main ticket gate body. A light-shielding signal of the pedestrian 17 when the pedestrian passes therethrough is detected.

The detection signals from these detection sensors S1 to S8 are read to detect the traffic condition of the pedestrian 17 who has used the ticket gate. A first detection area A1 corresponding to the position of the gate, a second detection area A2 corresponding to the position on the entrance side, a third detection area A3 corresponding to the position at the center of the passage, and a fourth detection area A4 corresponding to the position on the exit side. And a fifth detection area A5 corresponding to the position of the exit gate, and taking the positional relationship between the exit gate 12b and the detection position of the pedestrian 17 corresponding to the position of each of the divided detection areas A1 to A5. I do. As a result, the passerby 17 can accurately avoid contact with the exit gate 12b, and can apply a highly secure ticket gate control in accordance with the traffic condition of the passerby 17.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a control circuit of the automatic ticket gate. A CPU 31 controls each circuit device according to a program stored in a ROM 32 and stores the control data in a RAM.
At 33, it is stored so as to be readable.

When a ticket is inserted into the ticket slot 13, the magnetic ticket processing mechanism 34 drives the ticket transport device 34a to transport the inserted ticket, and reads magnetic data at the position of the magnetic head 34b. To determine the validity of the ticket. Also, the opening / closing opening shutter 34c is operated to open and close the gates so that successive passers-by 17 pass the ticket processing one by one.
To detect the insertion of the ticket, and to detect and confirm that the ticket has been discharged to the ticket discharge port 14 and that the ticket has been removed by the discharge port sensor 34e.

The gate opening / closing mechanism 35 drives the gate drive motor 35a to open / close the entrance gates 12a, 12a or the exit gates 12b, 12b. Exit gate 1
Gate contact detection sensor 35b provided in 2b, 12b
Is configured to detect that the pedestrian 17 contacts the exit gate 12b.

The pedestrian detection mechanism 36 detects the presence of a pedestrian based on the detection signals of the above-described first to eighth traffic detection sensors S1 to S8, and when the ticket data is invalid, or when there is no ticket. In the case of a ticket gate customer, an alarm is output from the alarm device 37.

The CPU 31 is connected to the exit gate 12
At the time of closing control of b and 12b, traffic control is performed by switching to various safe closing control modes based on the positional relationship with the pedestrian. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the CPU 31 detects improper ticket closing data, the CPU 31 determines that there is a possibility that the passer may hit the exit gate from the relationship between the position of the passer and the traffic speed. The mode is switched to the half-closed mode in which 12b and 12b are closed to the half-closed position.
As a result, the exit gate can be closed only up to half the closed position, so that contact with passers-by approaching each other can be sufficiently suppressed.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the CPU 31 detects improper closing ticket data, the position of the pedestrian at that time is detected in the first and second detection areas A1 to A2 on the entrance side of the passage. Is not likely to come into contact with the exit gates 12b, 12b, which close at a slightly distant exit side.
Switches the exit gates 12b, 12b to the high-speed fully closed mode. As a result, the closing speed of the exit gate can be increased and the exit gate can be closed at a high speed. As a result, the passerby can quickly recognize the gate closing and stop.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the CPU 31 detects improper ticket closing data, the position of the pedestrian at that time is determined by the third detection area A3 in the center of the passage or the fourth detection area on the exit side of the passage. If detected at A4, exit gate 12
The CPU 31 switches the exit gate to the two-stage closed mode because there is a possibility of contact with the exit gates b and 12b. This is to control the high-speed closing of the exit gates 12b, 12b to the middle closing position,
Thereafter, low-speed closing control is performed to perform two-step closing control. As a result, at the time of high-speed closing control, the exit gate does not reach the traffic regulation position at the center of the passage, so that the exit gate can be closed at a high speed to an intermediate position without hitting a pedestrian. Following this, at the time of low-speed closing control, the exit gate may be completely closed to the traffic regulation position in the center of the passage and hit the pedestrian, but since it is slow at low speed, the closing operation is gentle to people, and even if it is hit, the load is small. It is safe.

As shown in FIG. 7, when the CPU 31 detects improper closing ticket data, the position of the pedestrian at that time is detected in the fourth to fifth detection areas A4 to A5 on the exit side of the passage. CPU 31 has sufficient risk of contact with the exit gates 12b, 12b.
2b is switched to the low speed fully closed mode. Thus, the closing operation of the exit gates 12b, 12b, which slowly close at a low speed, allows the closing operation to be easily recognized, thereby enabling highly safe traffic regulation.

As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG.
U31 interlocks with exit gate 12 due to improper closing data
b, 12b are closed, the exit gates 12b, 1
When the gate contact detection sensor 35b detects that the pedestrian 17 has come into contact with the passerby 2b, the CPU 31 switches to the stop mode at that point and stops the closing operation of the exit gates 12b, 12b. Thereby, it is possible to avoid a strong contact or a collision with the pedestrian 17 or to perform a traffic regulation with improved safety for softening.

Further, when closing the exit gate, the CPU 31 can perform the closing control that avoids the contact with the exit gate in relation to the traffic speed of the pedestrian. This is because the first to eighth traffic detection sensors S1 arranged in the direction of the passage
The traffic speed of the pedestrian is determined by detecting the pedestrian in S8.

The passing speed of this pedestrian is: V1 = distance between S6 and S7 / detection time difference between S6 and S7 V2 = S2 distance between center position and S7 / S2 center position and S
7. Detection time difference V3 = S6 to S3 Distance between center positions / S6 to S3 Detection time difference between center positions V4 = S2 Distance between center positions to S3 center position / S2 Detection time difference between center positions to S3 center position

In this case, natural movements of the limbs and swing of baggage at the time of passing are detected at a high speed. Therefore, if the slowest detected traffic detecting speed is specified as a passer, the passer and other detected objects are identified. Can be clearly identified and passers-by can be identified accurately.

The ticket gate control operation of the automatic ticket gate configured as above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
Now, when a ticket is inserted into the ticket slot 13 when using a ticket gate, the data of the inserted ticket is read by a magnetic head and its validity is determined (steps n1 to n2), and the validity is determined. Then, the passage position of the corresponding pedestrian 17 is detected to check the passage state. At this time, when it is detected that the vehicle is passing through the third detection area A3 at the center of the passage, the exit gate 12b is kept in the open position to stand by (steps n3 to n5).
If the completion of the passage of the pedestrian is detected and confirmed by the detection signals of the respective passage detection sensors S1 to S8, the control of the pedestrian is reset to prepare for the ticket gate processing of the next pedestrian (steps n6 to n8). .

If the passer-by 17 passes through the central part of the ticket gate passage 16 with no or invalid ticket (steps n9 to n10), the CPU 31 issues an alarm of the alarm 37 based on the ticket impossible data. Is output to inform the driver of the improper traffic, and the guide indicator 15 informs the driver of the improper traffic by displaying and guiding the driver, and the exit gates 12b, 12b are closed to restrict the traffic of the pedestrian (step). n11).

In this case, if there is a passer-by just before,
The closing control is performed so that the exit gate does not hit the passerby (steps n12 to n13).

Next, the control operation when a passerby is near the exit gate will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. When the validity of the ticket gate use data appropriate for the passerby is recognized (steps n21 to n23), the exit gate 12b is driven to open in conjunction with this, and the exit gate 12b waits at the open position, and the passerby passes. Until the traffic is guaranteed, the vehicle is kept open (steps n24 to n25).

After confirming the passage of the preceding passer, the vehicle is immediately reset to prepare for the ticket processing of the passerby so as not to be confused with the passerby. If the presence of a person is detected, the door may hit, so the CPU 31 sets the exit gate 12b,
The CPU 31 regulates the opening operation or the closing operation of 12b to prevent the exit gate from hitting the passerby, and upon confirming that there is no passerby in the opening / closing operation area, the CPU 31 immediately opens or closes the exit gate. The closing operation is performed (steps n26 to n28).

Next, the closing control processing operation of the automatic ticket gate will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Now, when it is detected that the ticket data of the pedestrian 17 is inappropriate,
At the time of detection of the ticket impossible, the CPU 31 calculates the walking speed and the traffic position of the passerby (steps n31 to n32), and from the detection data obtained from the traffic condition, the CPU 31 determines whether or not the passerby closes the exit gate 12b while driving the exit gate 12b. It is determined whether there is a danger of approaching the vehicle. If there is no danger of approaching, the exit gate is closed to restrict traffic (steps n33 to n37).

However, if there is a possibility that a pedestrian will hit the exit gate, the CPU 31 sets the exit gate to the semi-closed mode to avoid contact with the exit gate as shown in FIG. n38).

The traffic position is determined by the first and second detection areas A1.
To A2, as shown in FIG.
1 sets the exit gate to the high-speed fully closed mode (step n39). Similarly, when the traffic position is detected as the third detection area A3, the CPU 31 sets the exit gate to the two-stage closed mode as shown in FIG. When the passage position is detected as the fourth to fifth detection areas A4 to A5 (step n40), the CPU 31 sets the exit gate to the low speed fully closed mode as shown in FIG. 7 (step n41). ), The exit mode is closed by switching to a close mode suitable for the traffic condition of the pedestrian (step n42).

At this time, if a pedestrian contacts or collides with the exit gate, as shown in FIG.
Sets the exit gate to the stop mode, immediately stops the movement of the exit gate, and regulates traffic while protecting passersby (steps n43 to n44).

On the other hand, if there is no contact with the exit gate, the pedestrian stops immediately before it is determined that safe traffic control has been performed, and the control proceeds to the ticket gate control of the next pedestrian (step n4).
Five).

As described above, when closing the exit gate, the contact between the pedestrian and the exit gate is controlled in order to control the closing after determining the positional relationship between the pedestrian and the exit gate and the relationship with the traveling speed. Avoided traffic regulations can be applied, and highly secure ticket gate regulations suitable for the traffic conditions of passers-by can be achieved. For example, if it is determined that a pedestrian may come into contact with the exit gate when the exit gate closing data is detected, the exit gate is set to close only to half the closed position, and contact with the exit gate is set. It can be suppressed sufficiently. In addition, if the position of the pedestrian is detected as the entrance side of the passage when the closing data of the exit gate is detected, there is no possibility of contact with the exit gate. It is possible for the passerby to quickly recognize the gate closing and stop. In addition, if the position of the pedestrian is detected as the exit side of the passage when the closing data of the exit gate is detected, the exit gate may be brought into contact with the exit gate. If the two-stage closing control is performed by the low-speed closing control, the exit gate does not reach the traffic regulation position at the center of the passage during the high-speed closing control. On the other hand, at the time of low-speed closing control, the exit gate may be completely closed at the traffic regulation position in the center of the passage and may hit a pedestrian, but since it is slow and gentle, the closing operation is gentle to humans, and even if it is hit, the load is small. It is safe. Also,
If the position of the pedestrian is detected near the gate on the exit side of the passage when the closing data of the exit gate is detected, the exit gate is controlled to close at a low speed because there is a sufficient risk of hitting the pedestrian.
As a result, the gate closing operation can be easily recognized, and highly safe traffic regulation can be performed.

Further, by detecting passers-by at a plurality of positions in the aisle direction, accurate detection is possible even for tall persons with long limbs, children who are likely to move irregularly, and passers-by having unusual baggage. Traffic can be regulated safely. In particular, natural limb movements and baggage swings at the time of passage are detected at high speed, so by specifying the traffic detection speed that is detected as the slowest to the passer, the passer-by itself and other detection elements are clearly identified. Closed control with high detection performance can be performed separately. In addition, by stopping the closing control of the exit gate when the pedestrian comes into contact with the exit gate, strong contact or collision with the pedestrian can be avoided to enhance safety.

In correspondence between the present invention and the configuration of the above-described embodiment, the passing object of the present invention is the same as that of the embodiment.
Similarly, the traffic position detection means and the traffic speed detection means correspond to the first to eighth traffic detection sensors S1 to S8 constituting the pedestrian detection mechanism 36, and the passage gate is
Corresponding to the exit gate 12b, the changing means corresponds to the CPU 31 and the gate opening / closing mechanism 35, the front part of the passage corresponds to the first, second, and sixth detection areas A1, A2, A6, and the central part of the passage Corresponding to the third and seventh detection areas A3 and A7,
The rear part of the passage includes the fourth, fifth, and eighth detection areas A4, A5,
Although corresponding to A8, the present invention is not limited to only the configuration of the above-described embodiment.
