Detailed ways

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts are within the scope of the present invention.

The embodiment of the invention discloses a non-stop charging method. Referring to FIG. 1, the method may include the following steps S101-S103:

S101. Acquire an identifier of the vehicle when the vehicle enters the non-stop toll lane.

The non-stop charge can also be called ETC (Electronic Toll Collection), which means that the vehicle enters the non-stop toll lane when passing through the toll booth, and the non-stop fee is set at the toll booth. The system communicates with the vehicle terminal to enable vehicle identification and automatically deduct the corresponding funds from the pre-bound payment account. The non-stop toll lane is also known as the ETC lane. In this step, the identifier of the vehicle is used to uniquely identify a vehicle, and the identifier of the vehicle may refer to the license plate number of the vehicle, or may be the frame number of the vehicle; preferably, the embodiment adopts the vehicle. The license plate number is used as the identification of the vehicle.

In a specific implementation, the following two possible implementation manners may exist in the step S101. In an implementation manner, the step S101 may include the following steps s11-s12:

S11, establishing wireless communication with the vehicle-mounted terminal of the vehicle.

S12. Receive an identifier of the vehicle returned by the vehicle-mounted terminal of the vehicle.

In steps s11-s12, the in-vehicle terminal may refer to an in-vehicle communication tag provided on the vehicle, the in-vehicle communication tag including a chip (integrated circuit chip or IC card) and a small microwave transmitter. The identification of the vehicle is pre-written into the chip, and when the vehicle enters the entry phase, the identification of the vehicle is sent to the non-stop charging system via a small microwave transmitter.

In another embodiment, step S101 may include the following steps s13-s14:

S13, taking an image of the vehicle.

S14, parsing an image of the vehicle to identify an identification of the vehicle therefrom.

In steps s13-s14, one or more devices such as a camera, a camera, etc., may be disposed above the non-stop toll lane, through which images of the vehicle may be captured in all directions. It can be understood that the image of the captured vehicle may be one or more images, and the image for these vehicles may adopt image recognition technology to analyze and recognize the license plate number image of the vehicle; then further, pass the license plate number image of the vehicle The license plate number of the vehicle can be obtained.

S102. Query, according to the identifier of the vehicle, a non-stop charging manner corresponding to the vehicle, where the non-stop charging method includes pay-per-view or on-time charging.

Pay-per-view is the charge for the vehicle to be used for each pass of the vehicle. On-time charging refers to the total charge for all the traffic times of the vehicle within a predetermined period of time. The scheduled time here can be configured according to actual needs. For example, monthly charging refers to all the traffic times of the vehicle in one month. The total cost is required; the annual fee refers to the total cost of all the traffic times of the vehicle within one year. In the specific implementation, the owner can apply for the non-stop charging method corresponding to the vehicle in advance in the traffic control system, and the traffic control system can store the non-stop charging mode corresponding to the vehicle; then, the vehicle corresponding to the vehicle can be inquired according to the identification of the vehicle. How to charge.

S103: Allow the vehicle to pass after completing the deduction according to the non-stop charging method corresponding to the vehicle.

In a specific implementation, step S102 includes at least two possible implementation manners. In an implementation manner, step S102 may include the following steps s21-s22:

S21: If the non-stop charging method corresponding to the vehicle is a pay-per-view, calculate a settlement fee to be paid by the vehicle for the current pass.

S22: Allow the vehicle to pass after completing the deduction of the account bound to the vehicle according to the settlement fee.

Step s21-s22, if it is a pay-per-view fee, then the fee required for the current traffic of the vehicle needs to be paid, then the account bound to the vehicle is deducted according to the settlement fee paid for the current pass, and the deduction is successfully completed. Open the pass gate of the non-stop toll lane to release the vehicle.

In another embodiment, step S102 may include the following steps s23-s27:

S23. If the non-stop charging method corresponding to the vehicle is on-time charging, calculate the settlement fee required for the current passing of the vehicle.

S24, adding the settlement fee required for the current pass to the bill of the vehicle.

S25: Determine whether the current date is the settlement date corresponding to the on-time charge.

S26, if yes, acquiring the bill of the vehicle, and allowing the vehicle to pass after completing the deduction of the account bound to the vehicle according to the total settlement fee in the bill of the vehicle;

S27, if not, allow the vehicle to pass.

In step s23-s27, if it is charged on time, first calculate the settlement fee required for the current pass and add it to the bill. If the current date is the settlement date, then the total cost of the bill needs to be paid, then according to the bill. The total cost is deducted from the account bound to the vehicle, and the vehicle is released after the successful completion of the deduction. If the current date is not the settlement date, the vehicle will be released directly, and the settlement date will be settled according to the bill.
