The present invention relates to a parking lot control system, and more particularly, to capture the entire screen of the vehicle from the time of arrival, and to prevent illegal parking in advance in contrast to the screen at the time of arrival, especially all discount tickets and A parking control system that can be used as an accurate counting and supporting data by imageizing welfare cards, etc., connected to the parking control system and a wired communication network (eg Local network → LAN). An intermediate server capable of storing and managing the data of the parking control system, which has collected and stored all the information of the control computer, and a control computer that can manage and supervise the data stored by the final manager from time to time by being connected by a wired communication network with the intermediate server. It relates to a parking lot control system composed of a department.

In general, there are many ways of operating a parking lot that charges a parking vehicle. For example, in the case of a roadside parking lot that does not have a designated entrance, several parking management personnel reside in the parking lot and end time. It records and charges the vehicle at the time of leaving the vehicle.In the case of a parking lot with a designated entrance / exit in the underground parking lot of a building or on a private or shared land, it is automatically recorded by a reader that can read the entering and leaving time of the vehicle. As a result, parking costs are settled for the amount of time parked.

On the other hand, some roadside parking lot is installed to collect the parking fee for the parking vehicle by installing a rate calculator in the center or each parking surface to reduce the cost and efficiency of management.

However, when the parking fee setter is installed and operated, after the driver parks in the designated area, the driver determines the scheduled parking time in the parking fee setter and prepays the parking fee. The end of time is indicated. Thereafter, if the parking time according to the prepaid parking fee is exceeded, the driver must pay the additional fee again, and if the additional fee is not prepaid, the vehicle can be towed.

In the conventional parking control system mentioned above, in the case of the roadside parking lot, a number of parking management personnel are resident to supervise the entry and exit of the vehicle and collect the parking fee, in which case a lot of parking management personnel are required. In addition, there is a problem in that the parking fee collected by the parking officer directly from the driver illegally useful.

In addition, when operating a plurality of parking lot has the inconvenience of visiting each parking lot to check the parking management behavior, there is a disadvantage in that the operating cost is increased by requiring additional measures such as supplementing the manpower. In addition, it is inconvenient to back up the various data information stored in the central control computer of each parking lot separately, so that some or all of the stored data is lost or inadvertent during the backup. There is a problem that can be erased.

Referring to Fig. 4 attached to the centralized management parking control system of the present invention having the configuration as described above, when the vehicle enters the entrance to the parking lot (S100) when the entrance image recording unit photographs the entry vehicle In operation S110, the photographed image is transmitted to the image reading unit, and the image is read (S120) to determine whether the vehicle is a pre-set vehicle (S130). If the pre-settlement vehicle is correct, the vehicle is allowed (S140). If the pre-settlement vehicle is not, the parking information is notified and the parking time is printed after the entry time and date (S150). As described above, all information until the admission is allowed is stored in the parking control computer, and the stored information is transmitted to the real-time central control computer unit.

After a certain period of time, if the vehicle that was parked enters the exit (S170), the exit image taking unit photographs the vehicle entering the exit (S180), and the captured image is transmitted to the image plate reader to record the information recorded at the time of arrival. In comparison with the present invention, it is read whether or not the vehicle is pre-calculated (S190, S200). If the vehicle matches the record at the time of arrival and is corrected, the exit gate is opened (S210) and the exit is completed (S220). If it is not a pre-set vehicle, it is required to present the parking ticket by the voice guidance device installed in the fare calculator (S230). When the parking ticket is presented, the parking ticket reader reads various parking related information (S240) and transmits it to the parking control computer. The parking control computer compares the recorded information with the pre-recorded information, and transmits the analyzed information from the time of arrival to departure to the fare calculator, and guides the information by voice and monitors the monitor installed in the fare calculator. Information is displayed (S250) so that the user using the parking lot can check it. When the user who confirms the information displayed as described above accepts this and pays the fee using cash or credit card or various welfare card or discount card, the exit gate is opened (S260) and the exit is completed (S220).
