[0001] The present invention relates to a method and a server for merging a car rental service,

The present invention relates to a rental car service.

In the age of low growth, consumer spending is becoming increasingly wiser. Sellers are also providing reasonable services in line with consumer changes.

On the other hand, the rental car service has been provided in such a manner that rental car companies or rental stores provide information on available vehicles, rent them for cars provided directly by a rental car company or a rental shop that intends to use rental cars, and pay for the services. It is necessary to provide a more reasonable and economical service to the user even in the rental car service.

Car rental users who use the same time and destination can use the rental car much more economically. In the case where the usage time and destination are partially overlapped or similar, or in the case of relays, it is convenient, efficient, and inexpensive to use the rental car when a plurality of users take over the car directly. In order to use the rental car together, it is necessary to check and match the vast reservation contents of each user. In the existing car rental service, there is a problem that it is difficult to physically access and search information from other reservation contents. In addition, under the existing rental car service, there is a problem that it is technically and temporally limited to allow a large amount of contents to be checked and to be used by a plurality of users through a procedure.

In addition, users are recruiting people who use rental cars directly by using online services such as social network or internet community, and people who meet the terms of use meet with difficulties in terms of reliability of each other. There is a problem that it does not work well.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a process of a car rental use merging service method according to an embodiment.

The server can obtain rental car reservation information of the reservation person (S110). The reservation information may be vehicle information of a rent-a-car, a rental place, a period of use, a service line, or a usage fee. The vehicle information may include a type of vehicle, a usage period, a cumulative mileage, a fuel amount, or a battery capacity. In addition, the reservation information may include personal information about the reservation person. Personal information may include driver's license information, past rental car usage history, and accident history.

The server may generate merging information using the reservation information and the shared information (S120). The shared information may be reservation information of existing subscribers, information on existing merged channels, or information on existing individual channels. The process of generating the merging information may be performed by matching the reservation information of the scheduler with the shared information. For example, suppose that the reservation information of the reservation person is a small car, a small car, a rental place, Jeju Airport, and the usage period is 15:00 to 17:00 on April 22, 2016. In the case of Jeju Airport, , It is possible to find shared information that is similar to such reservation information or in which the use time, the rental place, the service line, and the like are sequentially generated. - Jeju Airport, Period of Use - From 15:30 on April 22, 2016 to 12:00 on April 24, 2016 - From Jeju Airport to Jeju Silla Airport If the total price of the hotel and the Jeju Island is < RTI ID = 0.0 > - 150,000, < / RTI > the server can detect the crisis reservation information and determine merge information as the most appropriate shared information.

The merging information may be the selected shared information itself, or the selected shared information may be adjusted by coordinating with the reservation information. That is, the adjustment information can be generated using the selected shared information and reservation information. For example, in the above case, the reservation information itself of another reservationer may be merge information to the reservation person. Or, vehicle type - semi-standard car, period of use - April 22, 2016 from 15:30 to 17:30, the use fee - 25,000 won, originally reserved by the reservation and the type of car was changed and the use time was delayed by 30 minutes The contents of the adjustment such as the contents of the discount of 5,000 won may be merge information.

The merge information may include both the selected shared information and the coordination information. The selected shared information or coordination information may be at least one or more. That is, the merging information may be plural. When there are a plurality of pieces of merge information, the merge information may include ranking information that is obtained by calculating the degree of matching or fitness with the reservation information. In this case, the reservation person can check the ranking and easily select the service most similar to the reservation.

The server can confirm whether or not the response information has been obtained from the scheduler with respect to the merging information (S130). In order to obtain the response information, the merging information may be passed to the scheduler before obtaining the response information. When the merge information is transmitted to the subscriber, the subscriber confirms the merge information and inputs or selects the response information with respect to the merge information. The response information is related to the affirmative response to the confirmation of the merger information by the subscriber. For example, it is possible to agree with the contents of the merging information, to select a service to be used from among a plurality of merging information, or a request to use the service.

If the server obtains the response information, the server can generate a merge channel (S140). The merge channel can be seen as a virtual concept. The merged channel can be viewed as a channel equipped with a comprehensive system for the rental car reservations to determine the contents of the merging service for the corresponding reservation car in the online space. The subscriber can access the merged channel through a mobile terminal or a PC. When a subscriber enters a merge channel, it can function to share information and communicate within the merge channel. That is, the merged channel can also function as a social network service (SNS) for rent-a-car use.

If the server can not obtain the response information, the server can perform step S110. That is, when the response information can not be obtained, it may mean that the response from the scheduler to the merge information has not come. If there is no response, it can be restricted whether or not there is no response until a fixed time. Or a case in which the rejection information including the intention of rejecting not to use the service for the merge information is obtained as the case where the response information is not obtained. Since the scheduler has not found the desired merge information, the server sends a signal requesting the participant to re-input the desired information and acquires new reservation information accordingly. The server can acquire new reservation information.

If the server can not obtain the response information, the server may perform step S120. That is, although the reservation information remains as it is, the merging information can be regenerated by using the internal calculation or the calculation formula for generating the merging information by using the reservation information and the shared information, by changing the weight of each information and the determination condition.

The server may update the shared information based on the reservation information or the merging information (S150). The reservation information of the new scheduler can be acquired through the process from step S110 to step S140, and a new individual channel or a merge channel can be created. Therefore, as described above, there is a need to update the shared information, since the shared information may be information on the reservation information, the merge channel, or the individual channel. Through the updating process of the shared information, the service can be continuously provided to the reservation persons.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a process of creating and deleting an individual channel according to an embodiment.

The server can generate an individual channel (S210). An individual channel may be created based on the reservation information. Accordingly, step S210 may be performed after obtaining reservation information in step S110 of FIG. An individual channel is a virtual concept similar to a merge channel, which is the same as a merge channel, but only one person is accessing or entering a channel. Individual channels can be thought of as preliminary channels that exist before merged channels are created.

The server can confirm whether or not a merge channel has been created (S220). The server may delete the individual channel when the merge channel is created (S230). As the merge channel is created, the subscriber of the individual channel may be connected or admitted to the merge channel, and the individual channel may be deleted. Or an individual channel is converted to a merge channel and the individual channel is deleted. It can be seen that the concept of an individual channel disappears and is converted into the concept of a merge channel.

If a merge channel is not created, the individual channel may remain intact. Even in this case, the information on the individual channel may be included in the shared information and may be generated as merging information by matching with the reservation information of another scheduler. That is, they exist as individual channels, and may be subsequently converted to a merge channel, absorbed by another individual channel, or merge with another individual channel to create a merge channel.

3 is a block diagram illustrating a merge service server using a rental car according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The merge service server 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a data acquisition unit 110 and a processor 120.

The data acquisition unit 110 can acquire the car rental reservation information of the reservation person.

The processor 120 may generate merging information using the reservation information and the shared information. The processor 120 may generate a merged channel when acquiring response information from the scheduler for the merged information. The processor 120 may update the shared information based on the reservation information or the merge information.

The processor 120 may generate an individual channel based on the reservation information. The processor 120 may delete the individual channel when the merge channel is created.

If the response information can not be obtained, the data obtaining unit 110 may reacquire the reservation information or regenerate the merging information.
