 故障診断部11は車両の状態すなわち車両の故障状態を把握し、修理が必要か否かを判定する。故障診断部11はあらかじめ車両情報記憶部11aに記憶されている車両情報と、故障リファレンスデータ記憶部11b内に格納されている車両の故障状態情報とを比較照合することにより当該車両の故障状態を判定する。車両情報には、後述するセンサ24等により測定されたセンサデータが含まれている。故障リファレンスデータは、車両が故障状態であるか否かを判定するためのデータ情報が含まれている。例えば、タイヤがパンクしているか否かを判定するためのタイヤの空気圧下限値等のデータ情報が含まれている。 The failure diagnosis unit 11 grasps the state of the vehicle, that is, the vehicle failure state, and determines whether or not repair is necessary. The failure diagnosis unit 11 compares the vehicle information stored in the vehicle information storage unit 11a in advance with the vehicle failure state information stored in the failure reference data storage unit 11b to determine the failure state of the vehicle. judge. The vehicle information includes sensor data measured by a sensor 24 described later. The failure reference data includes data information for determining whether or not the vehicle is in a failure state. For example, data information such as a lower limit value of the tire pressure for determining whether or not the tire is punctured is included.
 修理時間DB11cには車両-車両の故障状態-修理時間が対応づけられて格納されており、故障診断部11は修理時間DB11cに故障状態に対応した修理時間DBを照会することにより故障を修理するのに必要な時間を算出する。例えば、修理時間DB11cでは、パンク修理の場合は修理時間30分、ガソリンの給油の場合には15分、というように故障に対する修理作業時間が対応して記憶されており、これに、例えば、経路検索部15で算出した修理施設への移動時間を加えることにより修理を行うのに必要な時間が算出される。 The repair time DB 11c stores vehicle-vehicle failure state-repair time in association with each other, and the failure diagnosis unit 11 repairs the failure by referring to the repair time DB 11c for the repair time DB corresponding to the failure state. Calculate the time required for For example, the repair time DB 11c stores a repair work time corresponding to a failure such as a repair time of 30 minutes in the case of puncture repair and 15 minutes in the case of gasoline refueling. The time required for repairing is calculated by adding the travel time to the repair facility calculated by the search unit 15.

 センタ10、車両20、及び情報端末30は、それぞれに送受信部16、25、30a、及び、通信網40を介して接続することにより相互に情報の送受信を行う。通信網40は例えばインターネット通信網であり、送受信部16、25、30aと有線接続又は無線接続可能に構成されている。制御部17は、センタ10の各機能を統合して制御する制御部であり、CPU、ROM、RAM、I/O等を備えたコンピュータを主体として構成される電子制御装置である。 The center 10, the vehicle 20, and the information terminal 30 transmit / receive information to / from each other by connecting via the transmission / reception units 16, 25, 30a and the communication network 40, respectively. The communication network 40 is, for example, an Internet communication network, and is configured to be capable of wired connection or wireless connection with the transmission / reception units 16, 25, and 30a. The control unit 17 is a control unit that controls the functions of the center 10 in an integrated manner, and is an electronic control unit that is mainly configured by a computer including a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, an I / O, and the like.
 センタ10には通知システム1の主要な機能が備えられており、通知システム1を実行するに際して、車両20及び情報端末30のリソースを使用しないように構築されている。従って、車両20のイグニッションオフ(以下、IG-OFFと称する)時に車両20の電力を使用することがないので、車両20に負担をかけることがなく、車両20のバッテリ上がり等を回避できる。 The center 10 is provided with the main functions of the notification system 1 and is constructed so that the resources of the vehicle 20 and the information terminal 30 are not used when the notification system 1 is executed. Accordingly, since the power of the vehicle 20 is not used when the vehicle 20 is turned off (hereinafter referred to as IG-OFF), the vehicle 20 is not burdened, and the battery 20 can be prevented from running out.
 車両20は情報処理部22、ECU23、センサ24、送受信部25及びナビゲーション部21を備え、これらは車内LANである通信ネットワーク26によって接続されている。ナビゲーション21は図示しないナビゲーションECUを備え、車両20の走行経路を検索して案内する機能を備えている。情報処理部22は複数のECU23、及び複数のセンサ24を備えている。センサ24はECU23に接続されており、ECU23は情報処理部22に接続されている。センサ24で測定されたセンサデータはECU23で所定の処理がされ、情報処理部22に送信される。 The vehicle 20 includes an information processing unit 22, an ECU 23, a sensor 24, a transmission / reception unit 25, and a navigation unit 21, which are connected by a communication network 26 that is an in-vehicle LAN. The navigation 21 includes a navigation ECU (not shown) and has a function of searching and guiding the travel route of the vehicle 20. The information processing unit 22 includes a plurality of ECUs 23 and a plurality of sensors 24. The sensor 24 is connected to the ECU 23, and the ECU 23 is connected to the information processing unit 22. The sensor data measured by the sensor 24 is subjected to predetermined processing by the ECU 23 and transmitted to the information processing unit 22.
 ECU(Electronic Control Unit)23は、CPU、ROM、RAM、I/O等を備えるコンピュータを主体として構成される電子制御装置である。ECU23としては、例えばエンジンECU、アクセルECU、ブレーキECU、ステアリングECUなどが含まれる。図2では、一つのECU23に一つのセンサ24が接続されている構成を例示しているが、これは例示であって、この構成に限定する意図はない。 The ECU (Electronic Control Unit) 23 is an electronic control device mainly composed of a computer including a CPU, ROM, RAM, I / O and the like. Examples of the ECU 23 include an engine ECU, an accelerator ECU, a brake ECU, and a steering ECU. Although FIG. 2 illustrates a configuration in which one sensor 24 is connected to one ECU 23, this is an example and there is no intention to limit to this configuration.
 センサ24としては、例えば、タイヤ空気圧センサ、ガソリン量計、エンジンオイル量計、ブレーキオイル量計、パワーステアリングオイル量計、バッテリ電圧計等の各種センサなどが含まれる。ここで、タイヤの空気圧センサは、例えば、TPMS(Tire Pressure Monitoring System;タイヤ空気圧監視システム)によりモニターされている。TPMSでは、タイヤ空気圧センサは近距離無線接続によりECU23に無線接続され、各センサ24により検出された空気圧データを取得する。 Examples of the sensor 24 include various sensors such as a tire pressure sensor, a gasoline meter, an engine oil meter, a brake oil meter, a power steering oil meter, and a battery voltmeter. Here, the tire pressure sensor is monitored by, for example, TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System). In the TPMS, the tire pressure sensor is wirelessly connected to the ECU 23 by a short-range wireless connection, and the air pressure data detected by each sensor 24 is acquired.
 各空気圧センサは、それぞれの空気圧センサを識別可能なIDが付与されているため、各空気圧センサが装着されたそれぞれのタイヤ及び装着場所を識別し、それぞれのタイヤの空気圧を個別にモニター可能である。また、夏用タイヤと、冬用タイヤのそれぞれに空気圧センサを設けることにより、例えば、夏用タイヤを装着しているか、又は冬用タイヤを装着しているかの判定も可能となる。 Since each air pressure sensor is assigned an ID that can identify the air pressure sensor, it is possible to identify the tire and the mounting location where each air pressure sensor is mounted, and to individually monitor the air pressure of each tire. . Further, by providing a pneumatic sensor for each of the summer tire and the winter tire, for example, it is possible to determine whether the summer tire is installed or the winter tire is installed.
 ECU23は各センサ24から種々のセンサデータを受信し、情報処理部22に送信する。センサデータを取得した情報処理部22は、センサデータに所定の処理を実施し、車両情報を生成する。その後、生成された車両情報は、送受信部25及び通信網40を介して送受信部16に送信され、車両情報記憶部11aに記憶される。車両情報には、タイヤ空気圧、ガソリン量、エンジンオイル量、ブレーキオイル量、パワーステアリングオイル量、バッテリ電圧などの、センサデータが含まれる。 The ECU 23 receives various sensor data from each sensor 24 and transmits it to the information processing unit 22. The information processing unit 22 that has acquired the sensor data performs a predetermined process on the sensor data and generates vehicle information. Thereafter, the generated vehicle information is transmitted to the transmission / reception unit 16 via the transmission / reception unit 25 and the communication network 40, and stored in the vehicle information storage unit 11a. The vehicle information includes sensor data such as tire air pressure, gasoline amount, engine oil amount, brake oil amount, power steering oil amount, and battery voltage.
 なお、車両20に故障診断部を設け、センサデータに基づいて車両20の故障診断を車両20において実施するようにしてもよい。この場合、故障診断結果は、車両20からセンタ10に送信され、車両20は受信した故障診断結果に応じて通知内容を決定することになるが、車両20のバッテリ電源を用いて処理を行うため、IG-OFF時にはバッテリ上がりを招くおそれがある。このため、実施形態では、故障診断部11はセンタ10に設けることとしている。 It should be noted that a failure diagnosis unit may be provided in the vehicle 20 so that the vehicle 20 performs a failure diagnosis of the vehicle 20 based on the sensor data. In this case, the failure diagnosis result is transmitted from the vehicle 20 to the center 10, and the vehicle 20 determines the notification content according to the received failure diagnosis result, but performs processing using the battery power supply of the vehicle 20. When IG-OFF, the battery may run out. For this reason, in the embodiment, the failure diagnosis unit 11 is provided in the center 10.
 情報端末30は、送受信部30a、位置検出部30b、及び入出力部30cを備えている。送受信部30aは通信網40を介してセンタ10、車両20と無線接続するための通信機であり、位置検出部30bは、情報端末30のGPS等の衛星からの電波を使って情報端末30の位置を特定する機能を有する。特定された情報端末30の位置情報は、情報端末30の送受信部30aと、センタ10の受信部16を介して経路検索部15に送信される。これにより、経路検索部15は情報端末30の位置を特定することができる。 The information terminal 30 includes a transmission / reception unit 30a, a position detection unit 30b, and an input / output unit 30c. The transmission / reception unit 30a is a communication device for wirelessly connecting to the center 10 and the vehicle 20 via the communication network 40, and the position detection unit 30b uses radio waves from a satellite such as GPS of the information terminal 30 to It has a function to specify the position. The identified location information of the information terminal 30 is transmitted to the route search unit 15 via the transmission / reception unit 30 a of the information terminal 30 and the reception unit 16 of the center 10. Thereby, the route search unit 15 can specify the position of the information terminal 30.
 入出力部30cは例えば液晶ディスプレイや有機ELディスプレイ等の表示装置と、タッチした指位置を検知するタッチ位置検出装置を備え、この表示装置とタッチ入力部とが重ねて配置されて構成されたタッチパネルである。これにより、入出力部30cにソフト的に表示させたキーボードやボタン等に対する手指による押下位置を検知することができる。これにより、例えばユーザはスケジュール情報を入力することができる。 The input / output unit 30c includes, for example, a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display, and a touch position detection device that detects a touched finger position, and the display device and the touch input unit are arranged to overlap each other. It is. As a result, it is possible to detect the pressing position of the finger on the keyboard, buttons, and the like displayed in software on the input / output unit 30c. Thereby, the user can input schedule information, for example.
 図2に示すように、通知システム1において、以下のように処理が実行される。ここでは、ユーザが使用可能な車両として、車両A及び車両Bの2台が存在する場合について例示して説明する。さらに3台目、4台目の車両が存在する場合は、車両C、車両Dとして、車両Bの取り扱いに準じて処理すればよい。また、図2中の矢印は情報の移動方向を示している。 As shown in FIG. 2, in the notification system 1, processing is executed as follows. Here, the case where there are two vehicles A and B as vehicles that can be used by the user will be described as an example. Furthermore, when there is a third and fourth vehicle, the vehicle C and the vehicle D may be processed according to the handling of the vehicle B. Moreover, the arrow in FIG. 2 has shown the moving direction of information.
 また、ここでは、車両Aを優先して使用するものとして説明する。車両A、Bの使用優先順位はユーザがあらかじめセンタ10の車両特定情報記憶部14bに登録しておいてもよいし、センタ10が車両A、Bの使用状況を分析して使用頻度が高い車両を選択するように設定しておいてもよい。また、目的地等に応じて車両を決定してもよい。例えば長距離の場合はミニバン、短距離の場合はコンパクトカー、山岳地帯に行く場合は4輪駆動車、降雪情報がある場合は冬用タイヤを装着した車両を選択する、というようにしてもよい。 In addition, here, description will be made assuming that the vehicle A is used preferentially. The usage priority order of the vehicles A and B may be registered in advance by the user in the vehicle specifying information storage unit 14b of the center 10, or the center 10 analyzes the usage status of the vehicles A and B and the vehicle is frequently used. You may set to select. Further, the vehicle may be determined according to the destination or the like. For example, a minivan may be selected for long distances, a compact car for short distances, a four-wheel drive vehicle for going to mountainous areas, and a vehicle equipped with winter tires if there is snowfall information. .
 まず、事前準備として、ユーザは、情報端末30を用いてスケジュールを登録し(S1)、情報端末30にスケジュール情報が格納される(S2)。センタ10は適宜、情報端末30と通信し、情報端末30に格納されたスケジュール情報を取得し、取得したスケジュール情報は、センタ10のスケジュール情報記憶部13aに格納される(S3)。また、スケジュール情報を、例えば、図示しない他のサーバに記憶させてもよく、その場合は、センタ10は、当該他のサーバからスケジュール情報を取得するようにしてもよい。 First, as advance preparation, a user registers a schedule using the information terminal 30 (S1), and the schedule information is stored in the information terminal 30 (S2). The center 10 appropriately communicates with the information terminal 30, acquires the schedule information stored in the information terminal 30, and the acquired schedule information is stored in the schedule information storage unit 13a of the center 10 (S3). Further, the schedule information may be stored in, for example, another server (not shown). In this case, the center 10 may acquire the schedule information from the other server.
 また、センタ10は、車両20ここでは車両A及び車両Bの車両情報を取得し(S4)、車両情報記憶部11aに記憶する。車両情報の取得はいつ行ってもよいが、例えば前回運転中、又は、前回運転終了時の車両システムシャットダウン時に車両情報の取得処理を実行するように設定することができる。車両20からの車両情報取得は、車両20のバッテリ上がり防止を考慮すれば、車両20の走行時、あるいは、ハイブリッド車であれば充電時又は走行時に行うようにすればよい。 Further, the center 10 acquires the vehicle information of the vehicle 20 and the vehicle B here (S4) and stores them in the vehicle information storage unit 11a. The acquisition of the vehicle information may be performed at any time, but for example, the vehicle information acquisition process can be set to be executed during the previous operation or when the vehicle system is shut down at the end of the previous operation. The vehicle information acquisition from the vehicle 20 may be performed when the vehicle 20 is traveling, or when the vehicle is a hybrid vehicle, when charging or traveling, in consideration of preventing the battery of the vehicle 20 from running out.
 また、センタ10は、通信網40を介して交通情報を取得し(S5)、交通情報記憶部15bに記憶する。この交通情報は所定時間ごとに更新されており、最新の交通情報が交通情報記憶部15bに記憶されている。交通情報記憶部15bで取得される情報には、天気予報、警報、注意報などの気象情報が含まれていてもよい。交通情報には例えば独自の交通渋滞予測などのデータが含まれていても良い。 Further, the center 10 acquires traffic information via the communication network 40 (S5) and stores it in the traffic information storage unit 15b. This traffic information is updated every predetermined time, and the latest traffic information is stored in the traffic information storage unit 15b. Information acquired by the traffic information storage unit 15b may include weather information such as weather forecasts, warnings, and warnings. The traffic information may include data such as a unique traffic jam prediction.
 次に、センタ10において、通知内容決定処理が実行される(S6)。通知内容決定処理については、図3を用いて後述する。通知内容決定処理により、通知内容が決定される。通知内容には、出発時刻、使用すべき車両20ここでは車両A又は車両B、例えば修理施設を経由する目的地までの経路、代替移動手段及びその経路等を含む。 Next, a notification content determination process is executed in the center 10 (S6). The notification content determination process will be described later with reference to FIG. The notification content is determined by the notification content determination process. The contents of the notification include the departure time, the vehicle 20 to be used, in this case, the vehicle A or the vehicle B, for example, the route to the destination via the repair facility, the alternative moving means and the route thereof.
 センタ10は、情報端末30に上記通知内容を含む通知情報を送信し(S7)、情報端末30は送信された通知内容を表示する(S8)。ユーザは情報端末30に表示された通知内容を閲覧する(S9)。これにより、ユーザは、出発すべき時刻、使用すべき車両20、目的地までの経路情報、あるいは代替移動手段及びその経路を認識することができる。なお、センタ10が情報端末30に通知情報を送信するタイミングとしては、ユーザが出発するまでに必要な準備時間等を考慮し、前倒して通知するようにしても良い。 The center 10 transmits notification information including the notification content to the information terminal 30 (S7), and the information terminal 30 displays the transmitted notification content (S8). The user browses the notification content displayed on the information terminal 30 (S9). Thereby, the user can recognize the time to depart, the vehicle 20 to be used, the route information to the destination, or the alternative moving means and its route. Note that the timing at which the center 10 transmits the notification information to the information terminal 30 may be notified in advance by taking into consideration the preparation time required until the user departs.
 また、センタ10は、修理が必要であると判定した場合であっても、車両20を用いて移動可能と判定した場合は、使用すべき車両A又は車両Bの情報、及び、例えば修理施設経由の経路情報を送信する(S10)。車両20には修理施設経由の経路が送信されているため、この経路情報を備えたナビゲーション21によるルート案内に従い、修理施設経由で目的地に向かえばよい。 Also, even if the center 10 determines that repair is necessary, if it is determined that the vehicle 20 can be moved, information about the vehicle A or vehicle B to be used and, for example, via a repair facility Route information is transmitted (S10). Since the route via the repair facility is transmitted to the vehicle 20, the vehicle 20 may be directed to the destination via the repair facility according to the route guidance by the navigation 21 having the route information.
 次に、図3を参照して、通知内容決定処理の内容について説明する。図3に示すように、通知内容決定処理が開始されると、センタ10の故障診断部11は車両Aについて修理が必要かどうかを判定する(S21)。修理の要否は、車両情報記憶部11aに記憶されている車両情報と故障リファレンスデータ記憶部11bに記憶されている故障リファレンスデータとを照合することにより判定される。 Next, the content of the notification content determination process will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, when the notification content determination process is started, the failure diagnosis unit 11 of the center 10 determines whether or not the vehicle A needs repair (S21). Whether repair is necessary or not is determined by collating the vehicle information stored in the vehicle information storage unit 11a with the failure reference data stored in the failure reference data storage unit 11b.
 ここでは、「故障」は修理が必要であると判定される場合であり、車両の走行継続に対して支障を生じる車両状態を意味する。この場合、走行不能か、走行を開始してもすぐに走行不能に陥る可能性が高い場合が「故障」に該当すると判定され、従って修理が必要であると判定される(S21:YES)。例えば、バッテリ上がりである場合、ガソリンタンクに貯留されるガソリン量が目的地に到達するには不足である場合、タイヤの空気圧が著しく低下しており車両の安全走行に支障がある場合、エンジンオイル量が著しく低下しており、走行を開始すればエンジンの破壊を来すことが予想される場合、等である。エンジンオイル量が許容範囲内で低下している程度であれば、ここでの故障に該当しない。 Here, “failure” is a case where it is determined that repair is necessary, and means a vehicle state that hinders the continuation of vehicle travel. In this case, it is determined that a case where the vehicle cannot travel or is likely to be unable to travel immediately after the start of traveling corresponds to “failure”, and therefore, it is determined that repair is necessary (S21: YES). For example, when the battery is running out, the amount of gasoline stored in the gasoline tank is insufficient to reach the destination, the tire pressure is significantly reduced, and the vehicle is running safely. Such as when the volume has dropped significantly and it is expected that the engine will be destroyed if it starts running. If the engine oil amount falls within an allowable range, it does not fall under this failure.
 故障診断部11が、修理が不要であると判断した場合は(S21:NO)、経路検索部15が経路を検索し、経路情報を出発時刻算出部12に送信する(S22)。出発時刻算出部12は、経路検索部15から経路検索結果を、スケジューラ13から到着時刻を、ユーザ情報処理部14から使用車両20、ここでは車両Aの情報を取得する。これらの情報に基づき、出発時刻算出部12はユーザが出発すべき出発時刻を算出する(S23)。 If the failure diagnosis unit 11 determines that the repair is unnecessary (S21: NO), the route search unit 15 searches for the route and transmits the route information to the departure time calculation unit 12 (S22). The departure time calculation unit 12 acquires a route search result from the route search unit 15, an arrival time from the scheduler 13, and information on the used vehicle 20, here the vehicle A, from the user information processing unit 14. Based on these pieces of information, the departure time calculation unit 12 calculates the departure time that the user should leave (S23).
 制御部17は、修理要否結果、出発時刻などを含む通知内容を決定し、これら通知内容を含む通知情報を生成する(S24)。その後、通知システム1は、通知情報をユーザに通知する(図2のS7)。また、経路情報を車両20のナビゲーション部21に送信する(図2のS10)。 The control unit 17 determines the notification contents including the repair necessity result, the departure time, and the like, and generates notification information including these notification contents (S24). Thereafter, the notification system 1 notifies the user of the notification information (S7 in FIG. 2). Moreover, route information is transmitted to the navigation part 21 of the vehicle 20 (S10 of FIG. 2).
 故障診断部11が、修理が必要であると判定した場合は(S21:YES)、故障診断部11は、修理の内容、修理に必要な時間、及び修理施設情報を確認する(S25)。これら情報は故障リファレンスデータ記憶部11bに記憶しておいてもよいし、通信網40を介してインターネット情報を検索することにより最新の情報を取得するようにしてもよい。修理施設情報とは、例えば現在地から半径5km以内に位置する修理施設の営業日、営業時間、修理可能事項、等である。修理施設には、自動車ディーラ、自動車修理工場、ガソリンスタンド等が含まれる。当該車両に特有な専門的な修理項目であれば自動車ディーラ等の修理施設で修理を行う必要があるが、例えばパンク修理、サイズ等が合致するタイヤを保有している場合のタイヤ交換であればガソリンスタンドでも修理可能である。このように、修理内容に応じて修理施設を選択するようにする。 If the failure diagnosis unit 11 determines that repair is necessary (S21: YES), the failure diagnosis unit 11 confirms the content of repair, the time required for repair, and repair facility information (S25). Such information may be stored in the failure reference data storage unit 11b, or the latest information may be obtained by searching the Internet information via the communication network 40. The repair facility information includes, for example, business days, business hours, repairable items, etc. of a repair facility located within a radius of 5 km from the current location. Repair facilities include car dealers, car repair shops, and gas stations. If it is a specialized repair item specific to the vehicle, it is necessary to perform repairs at a repair facility such as an automobile dealer. For example, if you have tires that match puncture repair or size, etc. It can also be repaired at a gas station. Thus, the repair facility is selected according to the repair content.
 故障診断部11は、図2のS3からS5に示すように、目的地情報や到着予定時刻などを含むスケジュール情報、交通情報等は既に取得して保持している。故障診断部11は、スケジュール情報、交通情報、及び、修理の内容、修理に必要な時間、修理施設情報等を考慮して、修理が可能であるか否かを判定する(S26)。ここで「修理不可能」とは、スケジュール情報による到着時刻に目的地に到達不可能とする故障状態を意味し、修理することが可能ではあっても、修理をしていたのではスケジュール情報による到着時刻に目的地に到達できない場合は「修理不可能」に該当する。なお、例えばタイヤのパンクやバッテリ上がり等、ロードサービスを利用して修理可能な場合、例えば、テンパータイヤへの交換、ジャンピングスタートは、修理が可能であるとの判定を行い(S26:YES)、当該車両は自走できないがロードサービスを利用して修理が可能なこと、及び、使用可能なロードサービスの連絡先等を含むようにして通知内容を決定し(24)、これを含む通知情報の送信を行う(S7)。また、ロードサービスでは修理できないが修理施設で修理可能な場合は、修理可能であるとの判定を行い(S26:YES)、当該車両は自走できないのでロードサービスを利用して修理施設に移動すべきこと、及び、使用可能なロードサービスの連絡先等を含むようにして通知内容を決定し(24)、これを含む通知情報の送信を行う(S7)。この場合、ロードサービスの手配、修理作業等に必要な時間を考慮して、送信時刻を前倒しして通知情報を送信する(S7)。 As shown in S3 to S5 of FIG. 2, the failure diagnosis unit 11 has already acquired and held schedule information including destination information and estimated arrival time, traffic information, and the like. The failure diagnosis unit 11 determines whether or not repair is possible in consideration of schedule information, traffic information, repair contents, time required for repair, repair facility information, and the like (S26). Here, “unrepairable” means a failure state that makes it impossible to reach the destination at the arrival time according to the schedule information. If the destination cannot be reached at the arrival time, it is “repair impossible”. In addition, when repair is possible using a road service, such as tire puncture or battery exhaustion, for example, it is determined that repair is possible for replacement to a temper tire or jumping start (S26: YES), The vehicle cannot be self-propelled but can be repaired using the road service, and the notification content is determined so as to include the contact information of the road service that can be used (24), and the notification information including this is transmitted. Perform (S7). If the road service cannot be repaired, but it can be repaired at the repair facility, it is determined that the vehicle can be repaired (S26: YES), and the vehicle cannot move on its own, so the road service is used to move to the repair facility. The contents of the notification are determined so as to include the contact information of the load service that can be used and the available load service (24), and the notification information including this is transmitted (S7). In this case, the notification information is transmitted with the transmission time advanced in consideration of the time required for road service arrangement, repair work, and the like (S7).
 例えば、想定される出発時刻が修理施設の営業時間外であり、開店時刻を待っていたのでは到着時刻に間に合わない場合は、修理不可能と判定される。また、修理施設の営業時間内であっても、修理時間が長時間必要であり、目的地到着予定時刻に間に合わない場合も同様にも修理不可能と判定される。故障診断部11が、修理可能であると判定した場合は(S26:YES)、制御部17は修理施設での修理を経由した経路を検索する(S27)。 For example, if the assumed departure time is outside the opening hours of the repair facility, and waiting for the opening time is not in time for the arrival time, it is determined that the repair is impossible. Even if it is within the business hours of the repair facility, it takes a long time for repair and if it is not in time for the scheduled arrival time, it is determined that the repair is impossible. If the failure diagnosis unit 11 determines that the repair is possible (S26: YES), the control unit 17 searches for a route through the repair in the repair facility (S27).
 検索した経路情報は出発時刻算出部12に送信され、S23及びS24の処理が実行される。ここで、S24で生成される通知内容情報において、例えば、修理に1時間を要する場合は、出発時刻を1時間前倒しして設定された変更後の新たな出発時刻を含んでいる。また、修理の内容、修理施設の情報、修理施設経由の経路情報が含まれていてもよい。 The searched route information is transmitted to the departure time calculation unit 12, and the processes of S23 and S24 are executed. Here, in the notification content information generated in S24, for example, when one hour is required for repair, the new departure time after the change set by setting the departure time one hour ahead is included. Further, the contents of repair, information on the repair facility, and route information via the repair facility may be included.
 次に、S26において、修理不可能と判定された場合(S26:NO)、ユーザが使用可能な他車両があるか否かを判定する(S28)。ユーザが使用可能な他の車両が存在する場合(S28:YES)、当該使用可能な当該車両、ここでは車両Bについて、通知内容決定処理を実施する(S29)。車両Bが使用可能な場合、すなわち車両Bが修理不要である場合は車両Bの保管場所からの経路を検索し(S30)、修理が必要で修理可能である場合は修理経由の経路を検索し(S30)、続いてS23、及びS24の処理を実行する。車両Bが例えば普段からユーザの家族により使用されている車両である場合には、普段の使用状況を分析して特定した使用傾向や、車両Bを普段使用している家族のスケジュール情報を把握しておき、これにより当日の使用可否を判定するようにしてもよい。S24では、車両Aについて修理が必要であるが修理が不可能であること、使用可能な他車両ここでは車両Bがあること、及び、検索した経路情報、出発時刻などを含む通知内容を決定し、これら通知内容を含む通知情報を生成する。 Next, when it is determined in S26 that repair is impossible (S26: NO), it is determined whether there is another vehicle that can be used by the user (S28). When there is another vehicle that can be used by the user (S28: YES), a notification content determination process is performed for the usable vehicle, here, vehicle B (S29). When the vehicle B is usable, that is, when the vehicle B does not require repair, the route from the storage location of the vehicle B is searched (S30), and when repair is necessary and repair is possible, the route via repair is searched. (S30) Subsequently, the processes of S23 and S24 are executed. For example, when the vehicle B is a vehicle that is normally used by the user's family, the usage trend identified by analyzing the usage status of the user and the schedule information of the family who normally uses the vehicle B are grasped. In this way, the availability of the day may be determined. In S24, the vehicle A needs to be repaired but cannot be repaired, the other vehicle that can be used here is the vehicle B, and the notification content including the searched route information, departure time, etc. is determined. Then, notification information including these notification contents is generated.
 車両Bについて修理不可能な場合は使用可能な他車両なしと判断し(S28:NO)、代替移動手段を検索し(S31)、その代替移動手段での経路を検索する(S32)。その後、S23及びS24の処理を実施する。ここで、S24で生成される通知情報には、変更された出発時刻、車両Bについての修理の要否、修理情報、新たな経路、代替移動手段及びその経路などの情報が含まれる。 If the vehicle B cannot be repaired, it is determined that there is no other vehicle that can be used (S28: NO), the alternative moving means is searched (S31), and the route of the alternative moving means is searched (S32). Then, the process of S23 and S24 is implemented. Here, the notification information generated in S24 includes information such as the changed departure time, necessity of repair of the vehicle B, repair information, new route, alternative moving means, and the route.
 ユーザが使用可能な他車両がない場合、例えば、ユーザが車両Aしか所有していない場合、及び、前述の車両Bについて修理不可能な場合は、ユーザが使用可能な他車両がないものと判定され(S28:NO)、制御部17は代替移動手段を検索し(S31)、この代替移動手段で経路検索を実施する(S32)。代替移動手段には、電車、タクシー、バス、飛行機、船、徒歩、その他の移動手段、又はこれらの組み合わせが含まれる。その後、S23及びS24の処理を実施する。ここで、S24で生成される通知情報には、変更された出発時刻、代替移動手段及びその経路の情報などが含まれる。なお、この場合の通知内容表示の閲覧画面(S8)で、通知内容による移動手段を不採用とし、さらなる代替移動手段を再検索することを指示するボタン等を表示させるようにしても良い。 When there is no other vehicle that can be used by the user, for example, when the user has only the vehicle A, and when the vehicle B cannot be repaired, it is determined that there is no other vehicle that can be used by the user. Then (S28: NO), the control unit 17 searches for alternative movement means (S31), and performs route search with this alternative movement means (S32). Alternative transportation means include trains, taxis, buses, airplanes, boats, walks, other transportation means, or combinations thereof. Then, the process of S23 and S24 is implemented. Here, the notification information generated in S24 includes information on the changed departure time, alternative moving means, and the route thereof. In this case, the notification content display browsing screen (S8) may be configured to display a button or the like for instructing to re-search for a further alternative moving device by disabling the moving device based on the notification content.
 通知システム1は、上記処理を、例えばスケジューラ13のスケジュール情報に記載された出発時刻の、例えば2時間前に実行し通知する、というように制御してもよいし、判定に必要な情報が取得された都度実行し通知する、というように制御してもよい。また、ユーザが通知内容による移動手段とは別の移動手段を選択しても余裕を持って移動可能な時間まで前倒して送信することとしても良い。なお、上述のユーザへの通知は、少なくとも変更された出発時刻よりも前の時刻に実施される。例えば変更された出発時刻の1時間前、当該予定日の前日、もしくは、数日前に通知を実施するように制御してもよい。上記に説明した種々の処理は主としてセンタ10で実施される。 The notification system 1 may perform control such that the above processing is executed and notified, for example, two hours before the departure time described in the schedule information of the scheduler 13, and information necessary for determination is acquired. It may be controlled such that it is executed and notified each time it is performed. Further, even if the user selects a moving means different from the moving means based on the notification contents, it may be transmitted ahead of time until a time when the user can move with a margin. Note that the above notification to the user is performed at least before the changed departure time. For example, the control may be performed so that the notification is performed one hour before the changed departure time, the day before the scheduled date, or a few days before. The various processes described above are mainly performed in the center 10.
