Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a train guidance display device, and more particularly to a train guidance display device suitable for providing train destination guidance information and approach guidance information on a station platform.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems] Traditionally, as guidance display devices with variable display contents on railway station platforms, train destination guidance display devices using flap-type, subtitle-type, etc. displays have mainly been used. The displayed content was also limited to the type of train, destination, departure time, etc. In addition, a guidance display device with fixed display content is usually installed on the station platform to guide the approach of trains.

On the other hand, with recent advances in electronic technology, new technologies have been introduced to station displays, including liquid crystal panels and light emitting diodes (IJDs).
) and cathode ray display tubes (CRTs) have come into use to display characters in a dot matrix. In principle, any character or pattern can be displayed using a dot matrix if a dot pattern of characters is given, but at present only the character pattern of destination guide information corresponding to the train is displayed. Moreover, according to these electronic display systems, it is possible not only to change the displayed content instantaneously, but also to display blinking or sequential display.

The main train guide display information on station platforms includes train destination guide information and train approach guide information, but to date these two types of guide information have only been displayed by installing separate dedicated displays for each. are doing. For this reason, the number of display devices on the station platform has increased, improving maintainability and visibility.
There are problems with installation space, etc.

[Purpose of the invention]

The purpose of the present invention is not only to display train destination information using a display device that can display arbitrary character patterns using dot matrix, but also to display train approaching information using the same display device when a train is approaching. An object of the present invention is to provide a train guide display device that makes it possible.

[Summary of the invention]

The present invention includes a display means for displaying guidance, a train destination guide information that should normally be displayed on the display means, and a train approach display information that should be interruptedly displayed on the display means to display the train destination guide information and the train approach. Selective C2 display is performed by switching between the guide information and the guide information.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a train guide display device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The train guidance display device of this embodiment has a function of displaying train destination guidance and a function of displaying approach guidance. The train guidance display includes information from a display 7 capable of displaying arbitrary characters, a train operation information storage device t2 that stores train operation schedules, and a train location input device 3 that inputs the location of trains and cars. The display is controlled by the display control device 1 based on the information. Train destination guidance information display character pattern memory 4 that stores character patterns for displaying train destination guidance
This is performed by the train approach guidance information display character pattern device 6 which stores character patterns for displaying train approach guidance.

゛In such a configuration, when performing normal destination guidance display, the character pattern of the display sentence is changed from the memory 4 under the control of the control device 1 based on information from the storage device 2 and the input device 3. is output to the display 7 for display.

On the other hand, when the corresponding train for which destination guidance is displayed approaches the station, the approach of the train is detected based on the information from the input bag WL3, and the character pattern for the approach guidance display is stored in the memory 5 by the control Im+2 of the control device 1. At the same time, the switching device 6 causes the destination guidance display and the approach guidance display to blink alternately at appropriate time intervals.

Alternatively, it is also possible to alternately display the information sequentially (so-called electronic news method). Thereafter, when it is detected from the information from the input bag Wt3 that the train has entered the platform section, the display is fixed to only the destination guide display.

Train destination guidance information and train approach guidance information are important information that must be accurately communicated to passengers on the station platform, but the device of this embodiment makes it possible to display the two pieces of information on the same display. Become. Passengers no longer need to look at separate displays to obtain information, as was the case in the past, and this is expected to improve guidance services.

Furthermore, since there is no need to provide a separate display device to display two types of information, economical effects such as improved cost performance of the display device and maintenance and labor savings can be expected.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a train guide display device according to another embodiment of the present invention, in particular, a railway line equipped with a train operation management system (a train operation information input device 8 is provided so that it can be used twice). Guidance is made possible by inputting train information from the outside through the external train operation information control device 9. The display on the display 7 is the same as that shown in FIG.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a train guide display device according to another embodiment of the present invention, especially when the display device 111 is configured to be able to display two trains (for example, a two-stage configuration, upper and lower). Usually, the destination information of the preceding train is displayed in the upper row, and the destination information of the next train is displayed in the lower row. It has a display switching device 10 which temporarily interrupts the display of the next train and displays the approach of the preceding train when the preceding train approaches.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, in addition to normal train destination guidance, train guidance can also be performed using the same display, so that it is possible to provide an economically efficient guidance display device at the same time as improving service to passengers. .
