Description

Bus charge accounting system using a fixed-amount ticket of non-contact type and single-ride ticket}

The present invention relates to a toll collection system, and more particularly, to a bus toll collection system using a non-contact flat-rate ticket and a one-time pass that allows the use of a contactless flat-rate pass and a one-time pass card.

In general, the fare of city buses can be paid at the same fare regardless of distance, except for buses that operate over long distances. A method of paying a ticket, a method of using a predetermined ticket (token), and a method of paying a fee using a contactless card are used.

Recently, the non-contact flat card, which charges a certain amount of the above fare payment methods, is mainly used, but this is advantageous for those who regularly use the bus, while using the bus irregularly. In the case of a person, a contactless card of a fixed price ticket cannot be purchased and used for one time use, so there was a problem of using cash or using a coin-type ticket.

In particular, if you pay the bus fare in cash or tokens, some of your income will be dislocated, and your business environment will still deteriorate. This will prevent you from providing quality customer service. There was a problem in that people who use the bus could not use the alternative fare payment method but still use cash or tickets.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to develop a terminal that can use both a contactless flat-rate ticket and a one-time pass card as a means of paying a bus fare, so that passengers who use the bus regularly use a prepaid or postpaid non-contact flat-rate card. In addition to allowing passengers to use the card irregularly, they can use the contactless one-time pass card to pay the bus fare, thereby preventing the fare from being lost due to the use of cash or tokens, and achieving transparent management. It is to provide a bus fare collection system using a non-contact flat pass and one-time pass, which computerizes both counting and filling to reduce the total labor cost.

At this time, when the non-contact one-time pass RFID block the progress of light, the phototransistor is turned off and a high level signal is output to the controller 210.

Fig. 8 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a contactless flatbed RF card according to the present invention. The contactless fixed-volume RF card 10 has a credit card shape, and includes an antenna 12 for transmitting and receiving to and from the first RF antenna 140 and an integrated circuit 11 for recording information.

9 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a contactless one-time pass RF card according to the present invention. The non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 has a disk shape, and includes an antenna 22 for transmitting and receiving with the second RF antenna 150 therein and an integrated circuit 21 for recording information.

Hereinafter will be described the operation of the bus toll collection system using the above-described contactless flat-rate and one-time pass.

In the system of the present invention, power is supplied through a power conversion unit 300 which includes a filter for converting a DC power of a vehicle into an AC power and then converting the DC power back to a DC power and removing various noises of the vehicle.

The control unit 210 in the standby state so that the user can detect whether the user is using the contactless flat pass RF card 10 or the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 while the power is supplied to the terminal body 210. To the contactless card interface means 230.

When a low level control signal is transmitted from the controller 210 to the contactless card interface means 230, a high level is applied to the first amplifier 233 through the inverter 232, and the first amplifier 233 is enabled. . Accordingly, the control unit 210 detects the contactless flat-rate RF card 10 through the first RF antenna 140.

In addition, when a control signal having a high level is transmitted from the controller 210 to the contactless card interface means 230, a high level is applied to the second amplifier 234 to enable the second amplifier 234. Accordingly, the controller 210 detects the contactless one-time pass RFID card 20 through the second RF antenna 150.

That is, when the control signal is low level, the first amplifier 233 operates to detect the non-contact fixed-volume RF card 10, and when the control signal is high level, the second amplifier 234 operates to make the non-contact one-time pass RF card. Sense 20.

As described above, the controller 210 sequentially enables the first amplifier 233 and the second amplifier 234 according to a program stored in the memory 220, and thus the first RF antenna 140 and the second RF antenna 150. Through) detects the contactless flat-rate pass RF card 10 and the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 at a high speed.

As described above, when the contactless fixed-volume RF card 10 is detected at the first RF antenna 140 or the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 is detected at the second RF antenna 150, the controller 210 performs a scanning operation. Stop and perform the processing operation of the detected card.

If the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 is placed on the first RF antenna 140 or the contactless fixed-volume RF card 10 is brought close to the second RF antenna 150 during the scanning operation as described above, the card is preset. The division code, for example, the OX10 is a flat card 31, the OX20 is a one-time pass card 34, and the OX30 or more are not normally processed by the division code programmed in the memory 22 in the form of a spare.

Hereinafter, a description will be given of the processing operation of the non-contact flat-rate RF card.

When the non-contact fixed-state ticket RF card 10 is detected through the first RF antenna 140 as described above, the controller 210 stops the scan operation. In addition, the controller 210 stores the first RF antenna 140 and the card antenna 11 with the amount of money information input to the electronic circuit 12 of the contactless flat-rate RF card 10 by a program stored in the memory 220. Read and write through At this time, since the control unit 210 proceeds in parallel with the verification procedure of the secret code generated by the code generation unit 240, the control unit 210 does not process other than the non-contact flat-rate pass RF card 10 issued for bus fare collection.

When abnormal processing is performed after the read and write operation, the controller 210 drives the display unit 130 to display an abnormal transaction, and when it is processed normally, the controller 210 drives the display unit 130 to display a normal transaction. At the same time the amount collected and the balance deducted shall be indicated.

Hereinafter will be described the processing operation of the contactless one-time pass card.

When the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 is inserted into the inlet 111 by the user, the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 is inserted into the inlet 111 by the first shutter 181. ) Is positioned between the photodiode PD and the phototransistor PT. As a result, the light generated from the port diode PD cannot be transmitted to the phototransistor PT, and the phototransistor PT is turned off. When the phototransistor PT is turned off, a high level signal is applied to the control unit 210 so that the control unit 210 recognizes the input of the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20.

When a high level signal is applied to the control unit 210 from the phototransistor PT, the control unit 210 controls the solenoid driving unit 270 to operate the first solenoid 191 to open the first shutter 181. Accordingly, the non-contact one-time pass card 20 is located between the first shutter 181 and the second shutter 182.

When the non-contact one-time pass card 20 is positioned between the first shutter 181 and the second shutter 182, the light generated from the photodiode PD of the input detecting means 171 is transferred to the phototransistor PT. As a result, the phototransistor PT is turned on to apply a low level signal to the controller 210.

In addition, when the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 is located between the first shutter 181 and the second shutter 182, the light generated from the port diode PD of the acquisition detecting means 172 is a phototransistor PT. The phototransistor PT is turned off because it is not transmitted to the phototransistor. When the phototransistor PT is turned off, a high level signal is applied to the control unit 210 so that the control unit 210 recognizes the acquisition of the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20.

Accordingly, the controller 210 controls the solenoid driving unit 270 to cut off the power applied to the first solenoid 191, whereby the first shutter 181 is closed by the restoring force of the spring.

After the first shutter 181 is closed, the controller 210 controls the contactless card interface means 230 according to a preset program to transmit and receive information with the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 through the second RF antenna 150. do. At this time, since the control unit 210 proceeds in parallel with the verification procedure of the secret code generated by the code generation unit 240, it does not process other than the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 issued for bus fare collection.

When the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 is abnormally processed by the above operation, the controller 210 controls the solenoid driver 270 to apply power only to the second solenoid 192 for a predetermined time. Accordingly, the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 is returned to the bad card return port 112. The controller 210 drives the display unit 130 to display abnormal processing. In addition, the controller 210 controls the voice guide unit 281 to provide voice guidance through the speaker 282.

However, when the normal processing is performed on the non-contact one-time pass card 20, the control unit 210 drives the display unit 130 to display the normal processing display and the transaction amount and balance. The controller 210 controls the solenoid driver 270 to apply power to the second and third solenoids 192 and 193 for a predetermined time. Accordingly, the second and third shutters 182 and 183 are opened and the non-contact one-time pass card 20 processed normally moves to the collecting unit 120.

In addition, the controller 210 controls the solenoid driving unit 270 so as to classify and collect the normally processed non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 according to the type, and supplies or cuts power to the fourth solenoid 194. Accordingly, the movement path of the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 is changed by the operation of the fourth shutter 184 so that the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 is placed in the stacking box 121 of the collecting unit 120 according to the type thereof. Collect by dropping.

At this time, the control unit 210 detects the movement of the non-contact one-time pass card 20 by the load detecting means 173, the second and third solenoids (192 and 193) after the operation of the load detecting means (173) If the non-contact one-time pass RF card 20 is not detected, the controller 210 determines that a jam phenomenon has occurred. When it is determined that the jam has occurred, the controller 210 controls the solenoid driver 270 to periodically apply or cut off power to the second and third solenoids 192 and 193 to thereby remove the second and third shutters 182 and 183. Repeat the opening and closing operation. Accordingly, the jamming phenomenon can be eliminated.

The transaction information, such as the bus fare collected by the contactless flat-rate pass RF card 10 or the contactless one-time pass RF card 20 by the operation described above, is controlled by the control unit 210. And an antenna (not shown) of a central computer such as a bus company via a wireless communication means 251 including an antenna.

Meanwhile, an abnormality occurs in the communication port 250 and the wireless communication means 251 for transmitting and receiving information with the central computer, or a communication failure occurs with the central computer, so that transaction data cannot be transmitted to the central computer. In this case, the controller 210 downloads and stores transaction data in the memory pack 262 connected to the memory pack interface 261. Accordingly, the manager may collect the transaction data by connecting the memory pack 262 to the collecting device after the operation of the bus is terminated.

As described above, the present invention configures a terminal to process both a contactless flat card and a contactless one-time card, so that passengers who use the bus regularly use a prepaid or postpaid contactless flat card and use the bus irregularly. Passengers can not only pay the bus fare by using a contactless one-time pass card, but also prevent the evacuation of the fare due to the use of cash or tokens, and computerize all the counting and recharging. The effect is to reduce the cost.
