Abstract

The electronic device allows the acquiring and the complete control of all data concerning the passengers, the situation of all mechanical components and of all services and the finding of the parcours informations on public lines of buses and similar.

Description

El ectroni c system for acqui ri ng/ el aborati ng and managi ng of mechani cal data and traffi c-users data for buses and simi l ar i n commerci al ambi ents
The present invention concerns an electronic syste m for acquiring, elaborating and managing mechanical data and traffic- users data for buses and similar in commercial ambients.
The present invention solves the problem of the complete control of all data concerning passengers, the condition of all mechanical components and of the services and to the finding of the parcours informations on autobus lines and similar.
The aim set forth is reached by the system according to t he present invention, which provides to the following functions:
- finding and counting of the single persons getting on;
- finding and counting of the single persons getting off;
- counting of the valid tickets;
- reading, valuation and counting of the cards of the season-ticket holders;
- sum of said countings (paying people, not paying people, and season-ticket holders) on request of the local operator at the terminus, or at the end of a shift and/or from the control centre by means of a remote control through radiomodem;
- transmission towards the centreof a plurality of codex linked to the status of the same number of contacts automaticaly managed, for the finding of anomalies and status of the machine or of the operator, by means of apposite switches for communicating, e.g.: the request of intervention for damage, heavy traffic, request of police intervention, ambulance, arrival at terminus, door opening;
- recetption by the centre of a plurality of controls on-off for guiding the same number of tension-free contacts;
- operator interface for the introduction of data as, e.g.:
- the number of the bus-line;
- the codex of the driver;
- the connection for particular functions;
- different codex for communicating with the centre;
- number of the bus;
- reception at the centre of a plurality of analogical inputs for controlling the different levels and pressures, like: petrol, oil etc.;
- the possibility of connecting in audio as well as in data transmission.
The present invention will be describe d more in detail hereinbelow relating to the enclosed drawing in which a block sche me of an embodiment according to the present invention is shown.
The enclosed sche me shows an electronic system for the acquiring, elaborating and managing of mechanical data and the traffic-user data for buses and similar in com mercial ambients, comprising components on the bus and in the operative centre, with an eventual bridge, comprising: D
a central unit 1 for acq uiring and controlling with a programmable logic, with a multiple feeding card, with analogic input cards, with digital input cards, with output transmission and rack cards;
- a plurality of photocell sensors FC1 and FC2, placed in parallel on the doors for getting on and off, for the counting of the users'ε flow, which send the data to unit 1 and are inhibited afer the closing of said doors;
- a contact 3 for the obliteration and a plurality of contacts of open doors for getting on/off, who send the data to unit 1 :
- a budgets' reader 4 of the getting on of season-ticket holders and for the identification of the operator, connected to unit 1;
- a reader-writer 5 with a display 6 connected to saidcontact 3 and to unit 1 , for the finding and/or the counting of the tickets, of the kind of a magnetic card;
- a door for season-ticket holders with photocells FC1 and FC2;
- a plurality of sensors for the control of the status of the mechanic of the bus, like a sensor 7 for the control of the wearing of the brakes, a sensor δ for the control of the petrol level, a sensor 9 for the control of the oil pressure, a sensor 10 for the control of the pressure of the gear oil, which all send their respective data to unit 1 ;
- a radio modem device 1 1 for the trasmission of the signals coming, after elaboration, from unit 1 ;
- a bi-directional keyboard 2, with switches P for sendingrequests and lamps L for signalling the arrival of signals; - an operative centre for the study of thesignals elaborated and send by the radio modem 1 1 and by the aerial 1 2, comprising the aerial 14, the radio modem 15 of the centre, a personal computer 16 and a data printer 17.
For what concerns the shape of said operative centre, the present invention provides the presence of a plurality of working stations in line plus an emergency one for the front end. with a communication service that assures the understanding with the terminals provided on the bus.
Said stations are connected in the local net with a server of the P.C. kind that manages the elaboration of all data received and prints the same.
Each post furthermore assures the interface with an operatore for the visualizing and managing in real time of the records.
Beyond the working bridge, also an emergency bridge is provided with automatic operation for the transmission of data and/or audio.
The data concerning the digital input may be:
- manual, by means of a magnetic card and/or a key for entering the system for: police, amb ulance, incident, return to deposit, leaving deposit, damage on board, request of audio; - automatic for: counting of km, petrol level, pressure of gear oil, oil temperature, oil pressure, water temperature, wearing of brakes etc.
The data cocerning the remote controls relate to the operating of the communication in audio.
In possible variants, the system may be applied in commercial ambients different from the bus lines, with similar functionality.
