〔Example〕

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the overall configuration of an embodiment of the taxi-taking data collection and processing device according to the present invention.

In the figure, l is a taxi entrainment data generation/storage device, which is mounted on the taxi. 21 to 2□ are terminals installed in each of a plurality of garages of a taxi company, for example;
3 is a repeater provided for a plurality of terminals 21 to 2, and is installed in the office of a taxi company. Reference numeral 4 denotes a taxi entrainment data processing device installed in the same office as the repeater 3.

As shown in FIG.
, a data storage section 13 and a data output section 14.

The operation data generating section 1) itself is constituted by a well-known electronic taxi meter, and the operation data generating section 1) has a distance pulse generated by a traveling sensor 15 every time the vehicle travels a certain distance. A tariff status signal from the tariff switching unit 16 is input.

The taxi operation data generating unit 1) updates and accumulates data regarding tariff status signals, distance pulses, fares calculated by the fare system, and various operation indices, and displays the fare display 17 and index display 18 as appropriate. to display prices and indexes.

The tariff switching unit 16 includes a taxi fare button pressed by the taxi driver when a passenger gets on board, a premium button pressed when the taxi driver pays the fare, a payment button pressed when the passenger pays the fare, and a fare button pressed when the passenger gets off the taxi. It has an empty car button that is pressed when the vehicle is empty, a pick-up button that is pressed when picking up a passenger, etc. The operation data generating section 1) updates various index data in accordance with the tariff state switched by pressing each of these complementary phases.

For example, index data for total mileage and driving time can be obtained by clicking the Rental button.
It is updated regardless of pressing the premium button, payment button, or empty car button. Business mileage, number of business hours, number of times after business, business mileage,
The index data of the number of pickups/idling distance and fare are updated when a button other than the empty car button is pressed. These updated index data are sent to the data processing section 12 when the tariff switching section 16 is switched from a state other than an empty vehicle to an empty vehicle tariff state.

In addition to the operation index data from the operation data generation section 1), the data processing section 12 receives the distance pulse from the travel sensor 15 and the tariff status signal from the tariff switching section 16. We measure the time required between Ichinomiya operations, empty vehicle running time, empty vehicle stopping time, etc.
The index data obtained by these measurements is stored as business time series data in the data storage unit 1 along with the operation index data sent from the operation data generation unit 1) in response to empty car tariff switching.
Store in 3.

FIG. 4 shows the data format sent by the operation data generating section 1) to the data processing section 12, and FIG. 5 shows the data format sent to the data processing section 12.
This is the format of index data that is stored in the data storage unit 13 by adding the measured index data from the operation data generation unit 1) to the operation index data from the operation data generation unit 1).

The data output unit 14 is connected to the operation data generation/storage device 1 to the terminal 2. A part for sending operation data to the repeater 3 via one of the terminals 21 to 2n.

The data processing section 12, which receives the data request signal from the data output section 14, sends an operation data transmission request signal to the operation data generation section 1). The operation data generating section 1) which has received the operation data transmission request signal sends operation data to the data processing 12 regardless of the switching to the empty vehicle tariff state by the tariff switching signal from the tariff switching section 16.

Insertion of the plug 14a of the data output section 14 into the jack of the terminal, that is, plug-in, is performed when the taxi leaves and when the taxi enters the parking lot. Therefore, the index data collected by the data processing section 12 from the operation data generation section 1) in response to the data request signal is stored in the data storage section 13 as departure data and warehousing data. Following the storage of this outgoing data and incoming data, the data processing unit 1
2 outputs the index data stored in the data storage section 13 to the terminal 2.2 through the data output section 14. ~2n.

FIG. 6 shows the format of data stored in the data storage section 13 at the time of leaving and entering the warehouse, and FIG. 7 shows the format of the data outputted through the data output section 14 at the time of plug-in. As is clear from FIG. 7, the data accumulated in the operation data generation/storage device 1 and sent out from the device 1 is followed by a header representing the start of the data (outgoing data, incoming data, and data for each business operation). Business time series data 1~
n, horizontal parity, and an end mark indicating the end of data.

Terminal 2 above. ~21) are all the same, one of them 2
As shown in FIG. 8, n has a data input section 21, a data processing section 22, a data transmission/reception section 23, a data display section 24, and a printer 25.

The data input section 21 includes a jack into which the plug 14a of the data output section 14 of the operation data generation/storage device 1 is inserted, and generates a data input standby signal in response to insertion of the plug 14a, which is transmitted to the data processing section. 22.

The data processing unit 22 automatically enters a standby state in response to a data input standby signal, and then generates operation data.
The data in the formant shown in FIG. 7 sent from the storage device 1 is received, it is determined whether the received data is normal or not, and the data is repeatedly received until the determination becomes YES. If the data is normal, the received data is transmitted to the repeater 3 through the data transmitting/receiving section 23.

When the timing of data transmission from each terminal 21 to 27 to the repeater 3 matches that of other terminals, or when the repeater 3 is transmitting data to the taxi-taking data processing device 4, the terminal is temporarily on standby.

The data transmitted to the repeater 3 is processed by the repeater 3 and sent back. The returned data includes the crew code, sales amount, each index and subtraction index at the time of arrival and departure, date, etc. Of these, the crew code and sales amount are displayed on the data display section 24, and the remaining The item is printed out by the printer 25.

As shown in FIG. 9, the repeater 3 connects terminals 21 to 2.
．． , a data transmitting/receiving unit 31, a data processing unit 32,
It includes a data transmitting/receiving section 33 for communication with the taxi escort data processing device 4, a data storage section 34, and a clock 35.

The data storage unit 34 of the repeater 3 stores the day's police box table data (including departure index) sent from the taxi escort data processing device 4.

The data processing unit 32 is connected to the terminal 2. ~2. ．． When the data is received through the data transmitting/receiving unit 31, the system refers to the police box table data for the day as shown in FIG. 10, and calculates the sales amount for the day based on the outbound index in the data and the received inbound data. , and send this along with the code of the crew member on board the vehicle to terminals 21-2. , and send it back to . The above calculation result is combined with the warehousing time measured by the clock 35, warehousing data, etc., and is stored in the data storage unit 34 as warehousing vehicle data in the format shown in Figure 1). In addition to the above, the data storage unit 34 also includes terminal 2
1-2. Each business time series data sent from , is also stored together.

Furthermore, even when the plug 14a is inserted into the jack of the terminals 21 to 2fl at the time of leaving the parking lot, the data stored in the data storage section 13 of the taxi entrainment data generation/storage device 1 is transferred to the repeater 3 through the terminals 21 to 27. However, the index data of the number of sales at this time is equal to the index data of the number of sales already stored in the data storage section 34 of the repeater 3. Therefore, by comparing the business frequency index data, it is possible to know whether the input data is the one at the time of leaving the store or not. When it is determined that it is time to leave the warehouse, the first
) The entry time in the data in the figure is the exit time.

The data stored in the data storage unit 34 is held until there is a transmission request from the taxi escort data processing device 4.
Cleared after sending data in response to a request.

Processing at repeater 3 is data input from terminal 2,
Processing of the data and terminal2. 27 is given top priority, and data output to the processing device 4 is performed using free time.

As shown in FIG. 12, the taxi-taking data processing device 4 includes a data transmitting/receiving section 41, a data processing section 42, a data storage section 43, an input section 44, and a CRT 4 as an output means.
5 and a printer 46.

The input unit 41 is comprised of, for example, a numeric keypad, a barcode reader, etc., and is used to input various data, fare data, crew status data, pick-up and drop-off locations, and boarding type data for each service. The data input from the input section 41 is processed by the data processing section 42 together with the data stored in the data storage section 43, and then stored in the data storage section 43 as new data.

The data processing section 42 transmits the day's police box table data (Fig. 1O) to the repeater 3 through the data transmitting/receiving section 41 according to instructions from the input section 44, and converts the data sent from the repeater 3 into data. It is received through the transmitting/receiving section 41. The warehousing data is selected from the received data, the data is sorted based on the selected data, and the data of one operation of each vehicle is stored in the data storage section 43 as master data.

The stored mask data includes time-series data for each business, such as time of arrival and departure, index data, and sales amount. This master data is modified for subsequent data processing.

The business time series data mentioned above is generated by the taxi-taking data generation/storage device 1 installed in the taxi, and the data is, for example, index data consisting of the count value of a counter that counts up every unit time. . This eliminates the need for each taxi to have a clock,
It is also effective in reducing the influence of clock errors. However, to effectively use time series data,
It is necessary to modify the mask data to real-time data.

To correct this data, the data processing unit 42 executes the work shown in the flowchart of FIG. 13 according to a predetermined program.

That is, after the start of the program, the data processing unit 42 reads the number of business hours No. (index) of the warehousing data in the mask data in the first step S1, and reads the exit time TM (real time) from the mask data in the subsequent step S2. . After that, the process proceeds to step S3, where the business hours TE (index) and required time TN (
index). Next, the process proceeds to step S4, where the business hours TIE (index) of the first business time series data is calculated.
, empty ring time Tl5 (index), required time TIN (index)
Read.

The index data read in steps S3 and S4 above is calculated based on the business hours CE of the first business in step S5.
(real time), idle running time C3 (actual time), idle running time CR (
(actual time). In addition, the leaving time TM read in step S2 and step S
The business hours CE, idle time CS, and idle running time CR calculated in step S6 are used to calculate the first business end time TIM (real time) in step S6.

The above-mentioned departure time TM, business hours CE, empty running time C8, empty running time CR1, first business end time TIM are in step S
7, the data is stored in the data storage unit 43. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S8, where the counter n is set to 2.

Next, the process proceeds to step S9, where the number of business hours N, business hours T2E, empty ring time T2S, and required time T2N of the n-th business time series data, that is, the second business time series data, are read, and then these read data are read. Step SIO based on
Calculate the business hours CE, idle time CS, and idle running time CR for the second business.

Then, in step Sll, the second business end time T2M is calculated.

Step S calculates the above calculated CE, C3, CR, and T2M.
In step 12, the data is stored in the data storage section 43, and then in step 31.
3, the counter n is set to (2+ 1-)3. Subsequently, the number of business operations N (index) read in step S9 is the number of business operations N of the warehousing data.

(index) is determined in step S14, and if the determination is NO, the process returns to step S9.

Thereafter, steps S9 to S14 are repeated. That is, from then on, read the 3rd to nth business time series data, and use these data to calculate the business hours CE and idle time C.
S. Repeat the operation of calculating idle running time CR1 business end time T n M and storing it in data storage section 43 .

If the determination in step S14 is YES, it is assumed that the correction of the time-series data of the - service has been completed, and the execution of the program is terminated. As a result, the data storage unit 43 stores real-time data indicating the end time of each business operation from departure to arrival of each taxi, and the real-time breakdown of business hours, idle ring time, and idle running time for each business operation. will be stored.

The input unit 44 allows the operator to input the boarding and disembarking locations and boarding type (wireless, call, arrival, department store, other, etc.) corresponding to each business from the operator's view of the passenger record entered by the taxi driver when operating the taxi. used to. As a configuration of the input section 44, an input method using a barcode reader can be considered. In this case, a bar code is attached to each region on the map, and the boarding and alighting points can be input by reading this with a reader. In addition, if you want to input specific areas, numbers, codes, or control signals that cannot be displayed on the map, you can attach par codes around the map.
This can be done by reading it with a reader.

The data regarding the boarding location, the alighting location, and the boarding mode inputted from the input unit 44 are stored in the data storage unit 4 by modifying the mask data.
It may be added to the above data stored in 3 or may be added separately by modifying the mask data.

The real-time data indicating the end time of each business and its real-time breakdown are processed by the data processing unit 42, and the 14th
It can be displayed on the CRT 45 as a crew status list as shown in the figure, or printed out on the printer 46.

According to the list, the crew status of each crew member can be clearly understood at a glance, so it can be used when showing the list to the person in question and pointing out deficiencies in the crew member's performance and requesting improvements.

In addition, in the illustrated list, the blacked out parts indicate business running hours,
Parallel lines represent empty vehicle running time, and rose marks represent empty vehicle stopping time. When making this figure, 1 to 2 minutes is 0 minutes, 3 to 2 minutes is 0 minutes,
7 minutes is processed as 5 minutes, 8 to 12 minutes are processed as 10 minutes, and the processing is expressed in units of 5 minutes (square range).

The table also includes information such as the crew member's group, departure time, arrival time, sales amount for the day, business hours, idle running time, and idle running time.

In the illustrated embodiment, since there are a plurality of terminals, a repeater shared by the plurality of terminals is provided separately from the terminal, but if there is only one terminal, the two can be integrated.

In short, the terminal and repeater only need to be able to collect data about multiple taxis. Further, it is also possible to provide the taxi entrainment data processing device with the function of a repeater.

Further, in the illustrated embodiment, the clock is provided within the repeater, but it may also be provided within the taxi entrainment data generation and storage device.
