Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a play management device that can appropriately grasp the progress of a play.

Conventionally, at a golf course, several parties start hitting at predetermined time intervals, and several parties play on one hole, and play progresses. At this time, the next party starts playing by observing the progress of play of the preceding party, but due to various circumstances, the play time may significantly stagnate at a certain hole. However, each party in a stagnant hole is often unable to push the ball in the stagnant state of the hole, which often causes trouble to subsequent parties.

Additionally, in the event of an emergency such as lightning or an accident, there was no device in the past to immediately notify each party from the central front desk, which required manpower and time, and could not be said to be sufficient in terms of safety. .

The present invention has been made in view of the above, and allows the central front to appropriately monitor the progress of play on each hole, and sends signals to holes where the play time is significantly longer than the standard play time. To provide a golf course play management device that can also be used for emergency communication in case of other abnormalities.

Its purpose is to have a central monitoring and management machine, a plurality of local boards for play mid-phase and hole-out local boards installed on each pole connected to the management machine by cables,
The central monitoring and management machine has means for receiving and displaying signals sent from each local board, and compares the play progress status of each hole with standard values to determine the play progress status of each hole and the occurrence of abnormalities. A golf course play management system having a function of transmitting data to each local board, and each local board having means for displaying and notifying the play progress status and the occurrence of abnormalities transmitted from the central monitoring and management machine. This is accomplished by a device.

Next, the present invention will be explained based on embodiments with reference to the drawings.

In Figure R1, the device of the present invention includes one central monitoring and management machine 1, and play intermediate local boards 3a, .
3n, and a local board 5a for hole-out connected to the management machine 1 by two-core cables 4a and 4b, respectively.
, 5b. Play middle local edition 3a...3n
In this example, there are 18 local boards for hole-out, and 5 local boards for hole-out.
Two units a and 5b are installed.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the central monitoring and management machine 1.
This management machine 11 consists of a computer 10, a storage device 11, and a display 12. The computer 10 has a calculation section 13, a control section 14, a register part 15, and an address buffer 16, and the control section 14 receives a necessary control signal C.
1. Clock (reference signal) C2 is sent. The control section 14 is connected to a register section 15, the register section 15 is connected to a program read only memory (FROM) 17 in the storage device 11 via an address buffer 16, and FROM+7 is connected to the control section 14. The control unit 14 is connected to the calculation unit 13 so that the calculation unit 13 receives input from a random access memory 18 that stores input data, and a RAM 19 that stores output data.
Connect to. RAMj8 and 19 are connected to display 12, and at the same time each local board 3a...3n, 5a,
5b and sends and receives signals.

Figure 083 is a partial front view of an embodiment of the local board 3a.
The same goes for other local releases. The local board 3a includes a progress lamp P that is brushed by the central command while play is stagnant, an interruption lamp Q that lights up when an abnormality occurs and you want to interrupt play, and a signal lamp R1 caddy that lights up when a signal is being sent. It is provided with a key switch 6 into which a key is inserted to turn the switch on and off, and a card slot (reader) 7 into which a card 8 (FIG. 1) is inserted to inform the central monitoring and management machine of the party's location. In addition, an interphone (not shown), JiA Tsuku 8, is installed as an option, and the caddy can carry a portable interphone (mutual recording type) and call jack 8 to the center front from the local board 3a. It has become. Each local board 3a...3n, 5a, '5b has the processing ability to judge up to 50 parties.

2. In using the device of the present invention, at the stage when the gear player of each party holds the card of the corresponding party and plays a tee shot, the caddy inserts the corresponding tee card 8 into the card slot (reader) 7 (= Insert it and turn on the key switch 6.The central monitoring and control machine 1 receives this signal and displays on the display 12 which party is currently playing in which hole.On the other hand, the local board 3a... Signal lamps R of 3n, 5a, and 5b light up,
If this lamp R goes out, this is proof that a signal has been sent, so return the key to the OFF position and remove the key and card 8.

A computer (central monitoring device) 10 is connected to a local board 3 installed at the teeing ground of each hole.
a... From 3n, 5a, and 5b, the signal is caught in a timely manner for each tie, and the play time is measured at the same time as the play inter position is confirmed, and the standard play time is determined. This results in a significant lengthening of the play time. For holes, a signal is sent from the center to the local board, flashing the progress lamp P, and transmitting it to the caddy. In addition, in the event of any other abnormality (lightning or accident), a signal is sent from the central front to each local board and the interruption lamp Q is turned on to notify the user of the abnormality.

The central monitoring and management machine 1 is connected to each local board 3a...3n, 5a.
.

The input signals that come in every 5b are sorted by the computer 1° and displayed on the display 12. An example of the progress of the play is shown below using party numbers.

(Example) Display example: The parties of Na 1 to N125 are playing out, and the parties of Na 26 to Nα50 are playing in.

One group of Nodouties and 26 groups of parties have finished their play (half).

In addition, if the play progress is extremely slow in 9H and IIH of the inside, the stagnation lamp will light up and a signal to promote progress will be sent to the local board 9H and 11H.

In the present invention, the central monitoring and management machine 1 and each local board 3
As for the cables connecting a...3n, 5a, and 5b, in places where there is a sprinkler system, the existing cables for this system can be used as they are by using automatic distribution. Similarly, in newly installed locations, it can be used in parallel with watering cables using automatic distribution.

As explained above, according to the present invention, it is possible to appropriately grasp the progress of play for each hole using the center front + two holes, which could not be done conventionally, and by processing this information, it is possible to significantly improve the play time. It is possible to send a signal to promote progress to a hole that is stalled and communicate this to the caddy, and also to receive an emergency message in the event of an abnormality (lightning or accident).
