Hereinafter, various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a view for explaining a delivery method according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 1, the server device 100 communicates with a four-wheeled terminal device or a two-wheeled terminal device. For convenience of illustration, reference numerals 200, 300-1, 300-2, and 300-3 in FIG. 1 are used as numbers indicating four-wheeled vehicles and two-wheeled vehicles, respectively, but these reference numbers are used by drivers of four-wheeled vehicles or two-wheeled vehicles, or It can also be used as a number to refer to a terminal device mounted on a car. Specifically, the four-wheeled terminal device or the two-wheeled terminal device may be implemented as a mobile phone, a tablet PC, a PDA, a laptop PC, or a navigation device.

An application for a four-wheel vehicle may be installed in the four-wheel terminal device 200, and an application for a two-wheel vehicle may be installed in the two-wheel terminal device 300-1, 300-2, 300-3, respectively.

According to FIG. 1, a four-wheeled vehicle driver delivers a product using a four-wheeled vehicle from an item supplier 10 to a delivery area 20. A plurality of destinations may be included in the delivery area 20. Delivery to each destination within the delivery area 20 is a motorcycle driver. The server device 100 supports a four-wheeler driver and a two-wheeler driver to collaborate and perform one delivery. For example, when goods need to be delivered from the goods supplier 10 located in Seoul to various destinations in downtown Busan, the goods are delivered from Seoul to Busan using a four-wheeler. However, in the case of a four-wheeled vehicle, delivery is difficult in a small area, a traffic congested area, or an area where parking is difficult. Therefore, after arriving in downtown Busan, the driver of a four-wheeler meets at a booking point with a two-wheeler and delivers the goods, and the driver of a two-wheeler delivers the goods from the booking point to the destination. The server device 100 determines a four-wheeler driver and a two-wheeler driver respectively, determines a booking point and time at which the two vehicles can meet, and then notifies each driver. In order to determine a booking point, the server device 100 determines a moving path of a four-wheeled vehicle in consideration of the location of each destination in the delivery area 20. The server device 100 determines a parking position as a booking point while being close to each destination on a moving path. The number of booking points may be determined to correspond to the number of motorcycle drivers.

According to Figure 1, there are four destinations (A, B, C, D) in the delivery area 20, and the server device 100 has three motorcycle drivers 300-1, 300-2, 300-3. And the three booking points (A', B', C') to be met with each motorcycle driver. Depending on the situation, a motorcycle driver may ship to more than one destination. In FIG. 1, after the third motorcycle driver 300-3 receives the goods at the booking point C', the situation of delivering to two destinations C and D is illustrated.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a delivery method according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 2, the server device first determines a four-wheeler driver to deliver the goods to the delivery area (S210), and also determines a two-wheeler driver to deliver goods in the delivery area (S220).

Then, considering the circulation of the driver of the four-wheeler and the circulation of the driver of the two-wheeler, and determining a booking point to meet the four-wheeler driver and the two-wheeler (S230), and provides information about the determined booking point to the four-wheeler and two-wheeler, respectively ( S240). The number of motorcycle drivers may be at least one. According to this delivery method, it is possible to safely and efficiently batch-deliver a plurality of items to a plurality of destinations.

Meanwhile, FIGS. 1 and 2 show and describe that the booking point is determined to be near the destination, but if there is a parking space at the destination, the driver may be guided directly to the destination without determining the driver. In addition, when the delivery area is not large, only one booking point is determined in an area other than the destination, and each motorcycle driver can gather at the booking point and receive and deliver the goods in bulk.

Determination of a four-wheeled vehicle driver and determination of a two-wheeled vehicle driver may be made in various ways.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a driver of a four-wheeled vehicle according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 3, when the number of deliveries is delegated (S310), the server device broadcasts delivery information to four-wheelers (S320). The delivery information may include various information such as a place for supplying goods, information on a product, destination information, information on a delivery area, a price, and a delivery date. Information on four-wheeler drivers can be collected in advance through the membership process. For example, a four-wheeler driver who wants to use the delivery provided by the server device may install an application for a four-wheeler driver on his terminal device and use the application to store his information on the server device.

The number of deliveries may be delegated through a web page provided by the server device, or may be delegated offline and the server device administrator may register directly with the server device. Alternatively, the number of deliveries may be delegated through an application provided separately to product suppliers. When delegating the number of deliveries, it may be requested to fill in the above-mentioned delivery information in detail.

When the server device responds to the delivery information, that is, the delivery support is received (S330), the four-wheeler driver that transmits the delivery support is determined as the delivery driver in charge (S340). Depending on the embodiment, various state information may be considered, such as a driving history or accident history of a four-wheeler driver, a record of violation of traffic regulations, or the size, type, accident, presence of insurance, insurance amount, and the like. For example, if a drunk driving history is found even if delivery assistance is received, the four-wheeler may not be determined as the delivery driver in charge.

3 illustrates an embodiment in which an item supplier requests a delivery, but unlike this, a four-wheeler may directly input delivery information. That is, when a four-wheeler driver is directly delegated the number of deliveries offline, the server device may be accessed for interworking with the two-wheeler driver. According to this embodiment, the server device may determine the terminal device as a four-wheeler driver when goods information, destination information, and delivery area information are received from the terminal device on which the four-wheeler driver app is installed.

Apart from the decision of the driver of a four-wheeled vehicle, the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle can also be determined.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a driver of a motorcycle according to an embodiment of the present invention.

According to FIG. 4, when the delivery information is input (S410 ), the server device may determine whether an area requiring delivery of a motorcycle is required (S420 ). As described above, the delivery information may be directly input by an article supplier or a distributor, or may be input by a four-wheeler driver. If the server device is a secluded rural area, a road or a parking facility is well equipped, or if there is no registered or lack of registered motorcycles, the driver assignment may be omitted. On the other hand, in areas where it is difficult or inconvenient to enter a four-wheeled vehicle, it may be determined that delivery of a two-wheeled vehicle is necessary. The server device may determine whether to deliver a two-wheeled vehicle based on a pre-registered database, and this step may be omitted according to an embodiment.

If it is determined that the server device needs delivery of a motorcycle, it broadcasts to registered motorcycle drivers (S430). Like a four-wheeler driver, a two-wheeler driver may install an application for a two-wheeler driver on his terminal device and register his information on the server device through the application. For example, various information such as his/her name, age, gender, criminal history, traffic violation history, means of transportation, transportation history, telephone number, and address information may be registered on the server device.

The server device may broadcast delivery information to motorcycle drivers through an application or a text message or a messenger (S430). In this state, when delivery assistance is received (S440), the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle that sent delivery assistance is determined as a delivery driver in charge (S460).

If delivery support corresponding to the delivery information is not received (S450), the delivery information may be broadcast again. If a certain period of time has elapsed while the delivery support is not received, the delivery applicant or the driver of the four-wheeled vehicle may be notified of the failure to determine the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle (S470). In this case, the server device may increase the delivery amount in consultation with a delivery applicant or a four-wheeler, or adjust the delivery time, and then re-announce it. The consultation process may be performed on a web page provided by the server device, an application for a four-wheeler driver, or the like, or may be automatically raised according to a policy-set impression rate.

When the four-wheeler driver and the two-wheeler driver are determined, the server device may determine the moving route to the delivery area as well as the moving route in the delivery area, a booking point to meet with the two-wheeler driver, and provide it to the four-wheeler driver.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a booking point according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 5, the server device checks an entry position into a delivery area and a plurality of destination positions, respectively, in consideration of a moving path from a supply source to a delivery area (S510, S520), for example, a delivery area on a highway An entry path, etc. to be entered into may be an entry location. The server device determines a moving path in consideration of a distance from an entry position to each destination, a distance between destinations, etc. (S530). In this case, considering the interlocking with the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle, it is possible to include a route that is convenient for transportation while passing around the destination, without determining that the destination belongs to the traveling route. In particular, the server device may find a parking available point closest to the destination on the moving path and determine it as a booking point (S540).

For parking spots, the server device can store the location through a preliminary investigation. Alternatively, if a parking space for delivery is secured through a separate contract with the owner of the parking lot, the parking space may be used as a parking space.

In FIG. 5, after setting the moving path first, searching for a parking available point on the path, it is not necessarily implemented as described above. As another example, the server device may determine a moving path as a path connecting parking spots close to each destination among parking spots registered in the delivery area.

6 is a view for explaining a method for determining a booking point according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 6, the moving path 600 is set in consideration of the entry position and each destination position where the four-wheel vehicle 200 enters the delivery area. The movement path 600 may be directly set by the server device 100 using map information, but is not limited thereto. For example, instead of the server device directly establishing a travel route, the travel route 600 may be set by entering each destination location or a nearby parking available point as a waypoint, such as a portal site or an application providing a route finding service.

6, three destinations 71, 72, and 73 are shown. The server device searches for all parking spots in the areas 61, 62, and 63 within a certain radius based on each destination 71, 72, and 73 (71-1 to 71-5, 72-1 to 72-3). , 73-1 ~ 73-5). The information about the parking spot can be stored in advance by the server device, or can be found in real time.

If there are many parking spots in the area, the server device determines the point closest to the moving path 600 of the four-wheeled vehicle as a booking point, and adjusts the moving path 600 to pass through the booking point. In FIG. 6, 71-2, 72-1, and 73-5 are respectively set as booking points. The server device provides information on the set booking point and the booking time and the moving path 600 to the four-wheeler. In addition, the server device also provides a variety of information, such as booking point and booking time, four-wheeler number, four-wheeler driver phone number, etc. to the driver. Such information may be provided as an application of a terminal device owned by a four-wheeler driver or a two-wheeler driver, or may be provided as a separate text message or mail.

As described above, when the delivery is performed by interlocking the four-wheeled vehicle and the two-wheeled vehicle, the moving path of the four-wheeled vehicle can be efficiently designed, and it is not necessary to pass through a narrow and complicated road, so delivery can be easily and safely performed.

On the other hand, in determining the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle, the server device may consider whether the driver can safely perform the delivery. For example, if a particular article handles too many deliveries within a short period of time, or if the delivery is performed without rest for a long time, the delivery of the article may be restricted. Alternatively, delivery may be restricted even for articles with a lot of accident history or traffic law violation history. In addition, it is possible to limit the delivery of a specific area, considering the weather in the area. For example, in the case of snow, in areas with a lot of uphill or downhill, the delivery of a motorcycle driver may be restricted, or the delivery may be restricted only to a motorcycle with anti-skid means. For such secure delivery, the server device can manage status information of each driver of the motorcycle. In addition, when there is a separate delivery branch managing a two-wheeled vehicle driver, the delivery branch may also include the distribution diagram of the delivery branch. That is, when the delivery branch is very busy, the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle belonging to the delivery branch needs to focus on the delivery service of the delivery branch. Accordingly, the number of times a driver can deliver a two-wheeled vehicle having a high degree of busyness in the delivery branch may be limited. The frequency of distribution can be calculated for each branch in consideration of the total number of deliveries and the number of delivery articles within a specific period. In addition, the threshold value of the division degree is calculated and stored for each branch, and a motorcycle driver belonging to a branch having a division degree higher than the threshold value can be excluded from delivery.

7 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a driver of a two-wheeled vehicle according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 7, the server device broadcasts delivery information to registered motorcycle drivers (S710 ). Thereafter, when delivery support is received (S720), the pre-stored status information is read and checked (S730). Status information includes the driver's driving experience, delivery history, accident history, traffic law violation records, number of deliveries per day/week/month, number of delivery delays, customer complaints, average delivery time, main delivery area, commuting area, etc. Various such information can be included. In addition, information such as the type of two-wheeled vehicle, whether or not special equipment (cooling facilities, special tires, chains, etc.) is installed, whether or not insurance is insured, and the amount of insurance may be included.

The server device determines that it is worth requesting the delivery if the status information of the driver who supports delivery meets a preset allowable condition (S740), and determines the driver of the motorcycle to be a delivery driver (S750). On the other hand, if it is determined that the delivery is not suitable, the delivery is notified (S760), and the delivery information is broadcast again (S710).

8 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a driver of a motorcycle according to another embodiment of the present invention. According to FIG. 8, before broadcasting delivery information, first, state information of two-wheeler drivers is checked (S810 ). Accordingly, the delivery information is selectively provided only to drivers who may request delivery (S820). Subsequently, when delivery support is received (S830), the applicant is determined to be a driver of a motorcycle (S830).

Depending on the embodiment, the delivery may be determined in stages. For example, a group of articles is divided into a plurality of articles based on safety or kindness, and the delivery information is first provided to the top excellent article group, and if delivery support is not received for a certain period of time, the delivery information is also provided to the next top article group. can do.

Update and confirmation of status information may be performed from time to time or periodically even before a delivery request is received. Accordingly, the driver of a motorcycle in poor condition may be completely excluded from the driver's pool. In addition, the shipping fare can be set differently for each group, or various benefits can be differentiated.

9 is a diagram illustrating an example of status information. According to FIG. 9, status information items may include the number of delivery this month, the number of accidents, the number of abnormal delivery, the average delivery time, the main delivery area, and the commuting area. In some items, a reference value may be set. For example, if the number of accidents is set to 3, a driver of a motorcycle having three or more accidents may be excluded from delivery.

According to the example of FIG. 9, if the delivery destination is located in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, the corresponding article may be a candidate based on status information, but the number of abnormal delivery times (for example, delayed delivery, incorrect delivery, etc.) is 5 times Since it exceeds 7 times, it can be judged as inadequate delivery.

On the other hand, the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle can receive and deliver the goods on its own within the delivery area, and when the booking time is reached, it can move to the booking point to receive and deliver the goods from the four-wheeled vehicle. That is, the delivery service exclusively for the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle and the delivery service interlocked with the four-wheeled vehicle may be provided together.

10 is a view for explaining a delivery method of a motorcycle driver according to an embodiment of the present invention.

According to FIG. 10, a two-wheeled vehicle driver may receive goods from a plurality of supply sources 1001 and 1002, respectively, and then deliver the goods to a plurality of destinations 1011 and 1012. The terminal device 300 of the motorcycle driver and the server device 100 communicate with each other.

For example, if the item is food, the supplier may be a restaurant, and the destination may be the home of the person who ordered the food. Since a plurality of destinations may order an item from one source or an item from one destination to a plurality of destinations, the number of sources and destinations does not always match, but in FIG. Shown in dogs.

The destinations 1 and 2 correspond to the destinations where the goods provided by the sources 1 and 2 should be delivered. Each source and destination may be named source 1 and destination 2 and destinations 1 and 2, respectively, in order of delivery request. That is, the delivery request for the destination 1 is the first state.

In this state, the motorcycle driver 300 may transmit a delivery support request to the server device 100 using his terminal device. A delivery support request means a signal for indicating that he or she intends to perform delivery of goods between a specific supply and destination. The delivery support request may be input through a user interface (UI) provided on a web page provided by the server device 100, or may be input through an application UI installed in a terminal device for a motorcycle driver.

When a request is received from the same two-wheeler driver 300 for a plurality of delivery numbers, the server device 100 sets the entire movement path for the two-wheeler driver 300. The entire movement route means a route for collectively processing the delivery of goods between a plurality of suppliers and a plurality of destinations included in the total number of delivery requested by the motorcycle driver 300.

The server device 100 may set an entire movement path for collectively processing all the delivery cases in consideration of a supply destination location, a destination location, a driver location, and the like included in a plurality of delivery cases.

If the two-wheeler 300 can hear destinations 1 and 2 in any order within the delivery allowable time of each item provided by suppliers 1 and 2, it is necessary to change the order without having to deliver to destinations 1 and 2 It can be more efficient.

The server device 100 detects the preparation time required for preparing the goods at each supply source, the travel time from each supply source to the corresponding destination, and the delivery allowable time, respectively, and sets the entire movement route based on the time. The time allowed for delivery means the time limit for which the goods should be delivered.

When the two-wheeler driver also supports interlocked delivery with a four-wheeled vehicle, the server device 100 includes a delivery point to deliver goods received through the booking point and a booking with the four-wheeled driver, in addition to a supply and destination for delivery by itself. , You can set the entire travel path. In FIG. 10, the booking point 1021 is determined in consideration of the position of the two-wheeled vehicle driver 300 and the moving line of the four-wheeled vehicle driver 200, and from the reserved point 1021, the supply destination 1 (1001 ), the reception destination 1 (1011 ), It shows the state in which the entire travel route is set in the order of sequentially visiting the destination 21002, the delivery destination 1022, and the destination 21012.

According to such an embodiment, the driver of the two-wheeled vehicle can simultaneously process the delivery of the two-wheeled vehicle, which is carried out by himself, and the delivery of the two-wheeled vehicle in cooperation with the four-wheeled vehicle.

11 is a block diagram showing an example of a configuration of a server device for performing delivery according to various embodiments of the present disclosure. According to FIG. 11, the server device 100 includes a communication unit 110, a processor 120, and a storage unit 130.

The storage unit 130 stores various data and programs managed by the server device 100. For example, the storage unit 130 may store information on a four-wheeler driver or information on a two-wheeler driver.
