Description

Destination guide system for public transportation {Traffic guide system}

The present invention relates to a method of a destination route guidance device of public transportation, and more particularly, when a general public wants to go to a predetermined destination by using a general public transportation such as a subway or a route bus that operates a complex city center. By simply pressing the button with the station name indicating the destination, passengers will be shown and voiced the stops of each line, including transit stations or bus stops (hereinafter referred to as transit stations) to the destination, while accurately indicating the time and fare. It is designed to provide.

As is well known, it is a public means of transporting a large number of people at a time, such as subways or city buses, and these subways and route buses are currently on several lines (e.g., subway lines 1 to 8 and buses). Is innumerable) and has a fairly complex structure.

Therefore, conventionally, in the case of the subway, the route map of the entire subway is displayed in a different color, and in the case of the bus, a route map indicating a route and a connected bus stop is attached for the convenience of users.

However, in the case of the route bus, it displays the routes of other buses connected with the bus, including the route of the bus, so that the destination can be easily identified within the bus, but the shortest travel time and the shortest distance, etc. If you can't check the information, and if the division of the entire route is made only by color, such as the subway route map, the information on the destination of the frequently used route is irrelevant, but for users who have never used the route or users who do not use the subway often Only the color separation as described above feels a significant inconvenience in using the subway.

In other words, users using subways and route buses do not know the shortest travel time, shortest distance, fare for each section as well as transit stations as accurate information about their destinations. The first time you use the subway and the route bus, you will experience considerable inconvenience, and you will need to be guided by the people around you or the station staff to resolve the inconvenience.

Therefore, in the case of the conventional subway, the time required for the subway between the station and the station of the corresponding line (e.g., Line 2) is posted on the signboard and provided to the users. You won't be able to arrive exactly, so you won't even see these signs).

However, the above information display board did not provide any help to the user using the subway in a manner of providing only fragmentary information.

Accordingly, the present invention provides the shortest distance for the route (including a transfer station or a linked stop) to a destination for passengers in the city where a public transportation such as a subway or a route bus is operated in order to solve the above problems. It provides information on the destination route of the public transportation means to facilitate the use of public transportation such as subways and route buses as well as to provide convenience to users by accurately guiding the time required, the fare and transit station for the shortest distance section. I want to do that.

Looking at the operation of the preferred embodiment of the present invention configured as described above in more detail with reference to Figures 1 to 7 as follows.

Firstly, the board is divided into a route guide display unit (1) and a text message guide board unit (2) for the entire line of public transportation such as a route bus including a subway, and a transfer board with a transfer guide board unit (3) installed at the transfer station. 100 is provided in each subway station and bus stop.

In this case, the electronic signboard 100 provided in each of the subway station and the route bus stop gives a code for recognizing the station.

In addition, a button unit 10 capable of a pressing operation is set for each subway station and stop appearing in the route guide display unit 1.

Thereafter, when the user presses and sets a button indicating a destination to go to from the button unit 10 of the electronic display panel 100 provided at the subway station and the stop, the destination station of the subway and bus lines from the pressing operation of the button unit 10. And a signal for setting a stop are output to the encoder 20.

At this time, the encoder unit 20 encodes the setting signal to the destination and then outputs it to the control unit 30, so that the control unit 30 outputs the setting signal of the destination encoded and output from the encoder unit 20. After decrypting, you will be informed about the destination.

That is, the decoder 31 included in the control means 30 decodes the destination setting signal encoded and output from the encoder 20 and outputs it to the system controller 34.

The system control unit 34 reads the route of the subway and the line bus of the corresponding line and the corresponding station and stop, the route of the entire line station and the stop, and related messages as information stored in the memory unit 33. While controlling the operation unit 32.

Therefore, the calculation unit 32 calculates the shortest section to the destination and the required time according to the destination setting signal decoded from the decoder unit 31, and then displays the calculated route to the user.

In other words, when the route calculation from the calculation unit 32 to the destination is finished, the system controller 34 controls the destination route display means 40 to sequentially display the route to the destination.

That is, the destination route display means 40 is installed in a variety of forms including a circular or square on the line between the LED driver 41 and the subway station and the station and the stop while the surface is covered with a transparent film Bar includes a plurality of LEDs (43),
