Abstract

PURPOSE:To ensure the smooth purchase and sale of used cars by recording the sale data or purchase data to a recorder and retrieving, extracting and displaying the data of the prescribed conditions out of the recorded data. CONSTITUTION:A seller of a used car transmits the sale data on the car including the type of car, price, number of years used, distance traveled, presence or absence of car inspection, etc. to an information processing part 4. In this case, the sale data is displayed on a sale sheet 6 for each item and collected to the part 4 to be changed into a card. This data card is recorded retrievably by a recorder 2. While a purchaser transmits purchase conditions to the part 4 as the purchase data via a purchase sheet 7. Here the coincident items between the sale and purchase data are set previously or the order is set among desired items. At the same time, an allowable range is also set previously to cope with a case where no coincidence is obtained with all items. Then the retrieved 3 optimum sale data is sent to the purchaser via a device 5.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an information conversion system for buying and selling used automobiles, and more specifically to a system for mediating information between a person who wishes to sell a used automobile and a person who wishes to buy it.

Conversion of used car information has traditionally been carried out individually and privately, but never in an organized manner, which limits the range of people who wish to receive or buy a car, and who are unable to do so themselves. It is extremely difficult to find a person who wants to take delivery or a person who wants to take delivery that matches the desired conditions, which has led to the inactivity of used car distribution.

This invention is a newly devised system as a result of deliberate research in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to systematically convert the distribution information of used cars, and to communicate with buyers and sellers by systematically converting the distribution information of used cars. To provide a used car information system that extracts the optimal combination of desired conditions with a prospective applicant and displays the information to one or both of the prospective applicants.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the used vehicle information system according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

The used car information system 1 shown in FIG.
and an information processing unit 4 that controls the search means 3 and an external display means 5.
It consists of the following.

That is, the information processing section 4 includes a recording means 2 for recording sale data or purchase data, and a search means 6 for extracting data meeting predetermined conditions from the data recorded in the recording means.

Therefore, the person who wishes to sell the used car transmits to the information processing unit 4 selling data such as the model, price, age of use, mileage, presence or absence of vehicle inspection, etc. regarding the target used car. In this case, it is preferable to collect the data through a sales sheet 6 in which the sales data is written for each item.

Although the method of displaying data on this sales sheet B is not limited, it is preferable to use a mark sheet method because it facilitates processing of large amounts of information.

In principle, one sales sheet 6 is displayed for each target used vehicle.

The sales sheet 6 thus displayed is collected into the information processing section 4 through appropriate means and recorded by the recording means 2.

The recording means 2 has a configuration in which the sales sheet 6 is converted into a card and filed as a searchable file, or a recording structure in which the data displayed on the sales sheet 6 is recorded in an automatic search function by a computer. The structure of the data displayed on the sheet does not matter as long as it is recorded in a searchable manner for each item.

In addition, when the sales sheet 6 is made into a card, the sheet 6 may be used as it is as a card.

In this recording means 2, used car information based on new sales cards is accumulated one after another, and by period management, used car information that has been withheld for a predetermined period of time is sequentially deleted as the period passes, so that new information is stored under normal pressure. It becomes possible to store

In addition, the used car information recorded in this recording means 2 is
The information may be displayed on printed matter or the like according to the vehicle type, price, information acquisition deadline, etc., and distributed periodically or irregularly to those who wish to receive the information.

Based on the used car information stored in the recording means 2, the information processing means 6 searches for an item that matches or approximates the desired pawn condition given by the pawn applicant.

The desired pawn acceptance conditions are transmitted to the information processing section 4 as pawn acceptance data via the pawn acceptance sheet 7.

The pawn acceptance sheet 7 may be structured so that each item of the pawn acceptance conditions such as the model, price, and age of the used car that you wish to purchase can be written down separately. It is preferable for information processing to match the transfer sheet 6.

Such pawn receipt data is sent to the information processing section via the pawn receipt sheet 7, or transmitted by directly communicating the pawn receipt data to the information processing section.

Here, you can set in advance the number of items that match the pawn data and sales data, or increase the ranking of desired items and make it a condition that the items match according to the ranking, so that all items do not match. It is preferable to set the allowable range value for each case in advance.

The optimal sales data extracted by the search means 6 in this manner is transmitted to the pawn applicant via the external display means 5.

The external display means 5 may be configured to display the extracted sales data (this displayed sales data may be directly transmitted to the pawn applicant or notified to the pawn applicant via an appropriate communication means). Furthermore, if necessary, the information on the pawn applicant may be notified at the same time to the person who wishes to sell the extracted sale data.

When the recording means 2 is a card file, the search means 6 may perform a manual search according to divisions based on headings or guide numbers, or may perform a mechanical search using punching. Further, when the recording means 2 is a recording medium, it may be a computer that retrieves information on the recording medium and performs search processing according to a search program. In this case, it is preferable that the sales data and purchase data be arranged in a matrix.

Through such search processing by the accumulating means B, sale data that matches the pawn/receipt data is extracted.

In the above embodiment, a configuration is shown in which information on people who wish to sell a used car is collected and accumulated in advance. A configuration that searches for the most suitable 11' information from the above information, or collects and accumulates information on those who wish to sell and those who wish to pawn, respectively, and provides information that is optimal for those who wish to sell and those who wish to pawn. It may be configured to search and extract the buying and selling parties.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the data Z of those who wish to sell and those who wish to trade are accumulated in the recording means 2, 2' in advance via the sales sheet 6 and the pawn sheet 7, respectively. Even when either a person desiring pawn or a person desiring sale searches for a party to buy or sell, the most suitable counterparty can be extracted from a wide range of applicants. Further, a mutual cross search may be performed based on the sales data and pawn data recorded in the recording means 2 and 2'.

In addition, if a new pawn requester or a new seller requester is unable to extract the corresponding buying or selling party or the sale is not concluded, the pawn data or sales data is recorded in the recording means 2 or 21. It is preferable to take

It goes without saying that various other design changes may be made without departing from the gist of the invention.
