Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the handling process of a transport vehicle.
  • the invention relates to the control of the handling operation.
  • a transport vehicle is set up to transport a good from a first transfer point to a second transfer point.
  • the good may include a thing, a person or an animal.
  • the transport is organized in such a way that picking or unloading of goods at different transhipment points is firmly planned, whereby transfer information such as type and number of goods to be transferred, place and time of transfer etc. are predetermined for each transhipment point. Examples include a general cargo transport by a forwarding agency or a public transport.
  • An object underlying the present invention is to provide an improved technique for controlling a handling operation of a transport vehicle.
  • the invention solves this problem by means of the subjects of the independent claims. Subclaims give preferred embodiments again.
  • a method for controlling a transfer process comprises steps of determining a transfer information for the transfer of a good between a transport vehicle and a transfer point; and the transmission of the transfer information by the transport vehicle in the region of the transfer point.
  • the good may in particular comprise a person, a thing or an animal, whereby in the following, for example, the transport of a person is assumed.
  • the transport vehicle is usually land-based and in the following example comprises a passenger car or a bus. In other embodiments may also be another vehicle affected, such as an aircraft or watercraft.
  • the goods should be loaded on board the transport vehicle; in another, it should be unloaded from the transport vehicle.
  • a person or a facility in the area of the transhipment point can receive the transmitted transfer information and determine, for example, whether the transport vehicle is intended for the transport of a certain waiting person or not. For example, at a stop several people with different transport destinations wait for a transport vehicle arrives, which anech a suitable destination and still has sufficient capacity.
  • the method described can make it possible to use the transport vehicle flexibly, for example without a fixed route, without fixed stops or without fixed transport capacity. As a result, a completely new transport concept can be formed in which the planning of a transport can be carried out with a high degree of dynamicity.
  • the handover information can be sent, for example, visually or acoustically, so that a person located at the point of transfer can perceive them.
  • An additional infrastructure in the area of the transhipment point may not be necessary.
  • the perceptive person may include, for example, an organization, care or supervisory person such as a loadmaster or a pickup person. Alternatively, the perceptive person can also be taken over by himself in the transport vehicle.
  • the transfer information can also be transmitted wirelessly to a display or processing device in the area of the transfer point.
  • the display device can be made mobile and assigned to a person or fixedly attached to the transfer point. Alternatively, the display device may also be assigned to a person to be transported or responsible for the handling in the region of the transhipment point.
  • the display device can be formed, for example, by a commercially available mobile telephone ("smartphone") in conjunction with a suitable program ("app").
  • a bridgeable distance between the transport vehicle and the receiver of the transfer information can be increased become. Accordingly, an advance between the arrival of the transfer information and the arrival of the transport vehicle at the transfer point can be increased, so that the transfer or the transportation of the goods can be improvedly planned or prepared.
  • the handover information may include at least a holding location, a holding time, a holding period, a pickup capacity for the goods by the transportation vehicle, a request of a resource, and a destination driven after the stop. Further, for example, an approach side or a direction of travel can be signaled.
  • the aid can comprise, for example, a load harness, a wheelchair or another device suitable in particular for loading or unloading the item from the transport vehicle.
  • the information may also be provided while the transport vehicle is stopping. Thus, for example, a person exiting at the transhipment point can be better informed by the transmitted information of a connecting vehicle, a contact point or a contact person.
  • a waiting information is determined via a goods item to be received at the transfer point, wherein the transfer information is determined as a function of the wait information.
  • the transfer information is determined as a function of the wait information.
  • a travel route of the transport vehicle can be determined as a function of the waiting information, optionally even before the transport vehicle actuates the transfer point.
  • a dynamic transport service can be set up, which determines the route of a transport vehicle depending on a certain waiting information.
  • carriage data of the asset is determined.
  • the handover information may include the planned duration of the handling of the goods, and if the handling lasts longer than planned, for example, a markup may be charged.
  • a billing system for example a taximeter, can be synchronized with transport data of the transport vehicle. Further information, such as particular packaging, the exact time or place the good was brought aboard the transport vehicle, or a time or place of unloading the cargo from the transport vehicle may also be provided for further processing. This processing may in particular relate to the planning of a further route of the transport vehicle or the billing of the transported goods.
  • an apparatus for controlling a transfer process comprises processing means for determining a transfer information for the transfer of a good between the transport vehicle and a transfer point; and a transmitting device for transmitting the transfer information by the transport vehicle in the region of the transfer point.
  • the device can be mounted with little effort aboard a conventional transport vehicle.
  • the device is mobile or removable from the transport vehicle, so that the vehicle can serve other purposes than the described transport.
  • the transport vehicle may include a passenger car, which is only used in phases for the described transport of a person or thing.
  • the transmitting device may in particular comprise a projector for optically displaying the transfer information.
  • the projector can project the information onto a surface such as a carriageway or house wall in the area of the transfer point.
  • the projector may include, for example, a driving light, a signal headlight or a projection unit.
  • the projector can be set up to display the transfer information in the direction of travel in front of the transport vehicle or, for example, on an entry or loading side. The perception of the transmitted transfer information in the area of the transfer point can be facilitated.
  • the transmitting device comprises an acoustic output device.
  • the transfer information can be identified, for example, by a sig- nalton, a signal sequence or a spoken text. The transport information can thus be improved intuitively detectable.
  • a transport system comprises a plurality of transport vehicles each comprising a device described herein.
