 以下、本発明を実施するための最良の形態について図を参照しながら説明する。なお、これはあくまでも一例であって、本発明の技術的範囲はこれに限られるものではない。 Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that this is merely an example, and the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to this.
 <全体構成>
 図1は、本実施形態に係る座席使用可能システムの概要を示す概念図である。
 座席使用可能システム1が適用された競技が行われる競技場の座席50は、背もたれ部51と、座部52とを備え、ユーザに着座されていない不使用状態では座部52が背もたれ部51側に付勢され、この状態の座部52の上部をユーザが掴み、下方に回動させることで、使用可能状態となる。
<Overall configuration>
FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram showing an outline of a seat usable system according to the present embodiment.
The seat 50 of the stadium where the competition to which the seat usable system 1 is applied is performed includes a backrest part 51 and a seat part 52, and the seat part 52 is on the backrest part 51 side in a non-use state where the user is not seated. When the user grips the upper portion of the seat portion 52 in this state and turns it downward, the device becomes ready for use.
 また、座席使用可能システム1では、座席50に座席制御装置30が取り付けてあり、座席50が不使用状態において、座席制御装置30により、座部52が回動できないようにロックされたロック状態となっている。即ち、座席使用可能システム1は、ロック状態を解除しない限り、座席50を使用することができない。 In the seat usable system 1, the seat control device 30 is attached to the seat 50. When the seat 50 is not in use, the seat control device 30 locks the seat 52 so that the seat 52 cannot be rotated. Has become. That is, the seat availability system 1 cannot use the seat 50 unless the locked state is released.
 このような座席50に対し、座席使用可能システム1は、当該座席50に対応付けられたチケットを購入したユーザが、ロック状態を解除し、使用可能状態とすることを可能とするシステムである。 、 With respect to such a seat 50, the seat usable system 1 is a system that enables a user who has purchased a ticket associated with the seat 50 to release the locked state and make it usable.
 座席使用可能システム1は、以下のように、座席50をロック状態から使用可能状態にする。
 座席使用可能システム1において、ユーザは、まず、ユーザが操作するユーザ端末20で、座席50に設置された識別情報60(例えば、個々の座席50をそれぞれ特定するための情報であり、ユーザ端末20で読み取り可能である、例えば、2次元コードや、NFC(Near Field Communication)タグ等)を取得する。
The seat enabling system 1 changes the seat 50 from the locked state to the usable state as described below.
In the seat usable system 1, the user first uses the user terminal 20 operated by the user to identify the identification information 60 installed on the seat 50 (for example, information for specifying each individual seat 50; For example, a two-dimensional code, an NFC (Near Field Communication) tag, or the like, which can be read by the user, is acquired.
 次いで、座席使用可能システム1は、取得した識別情報60に紐づいた座席IDと、購入されたチケットの座席IDとが、一致するかを判定する。そして、座席使用可能システム1は、一致したと判定した場合に、座席50を使用できないロック状態を解除し、座席50を使用可能状態にする。 Next, the seat availability system 1 determines whether the seat ID associated with the acquired identification information 60 matches the seat ID of the purchased ticket. Then, when it is determined that they match, the seat availability system 1 releases the locked state in which the seat 50 cannot be used, and makes the seat 50 usable.
 このような座席使用可能システム1によれば、ある座席50に紐づいたチケットを購入していないユーザは、当該座席50のロックを解除することができず、当該座席50を使用できない。このため、当該座席50に紐づいたチケットを購入したユーザが、当該座席50を使用する場合に、他人が使用していた等の問題が生ずるのを未然に防止できる。一方、当該座席50に紐づいたチケットを購入したユーザは、ロック状態を解除し、座席50を使用可能状態にすることができる。
 したがって、座席使用可能システム1によれば、ユーザが購入したチケットに紐づいた座席50を使用可能にすることができる。
According to such a seat usable system 1, a user who has not purchased a ticket associated with a certain seat 50 cannot unlock the seat 50 and cannot use the seat 50. For this reason, when the user who purchased the ticket linked to the seat 50 uses the seat 50, it is possible to prevent a problem that another user uses the seat 50 from occurring. On the other hand, the user who has purchased the ticket associated with the seat 50 can release the locked state and make the seat 50 usable.
Therefore, according to the seat availability system 1, the seat 50 associated with the ticket purchased by the user can be made available.
 <機能構成>
 図2は、本実施形態の座席使用可能システムの機能構成を示すブロック図である。
 座席使用可能システム1は、チケット販売サーバ10と、チケット販売サーバ10とネットワークを介して接続されたユーザ端末20と、チケット販売サーバ10やユーザ端末20と通信可能な座席制御装置30と、を備える。
<Functional configuration>
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the seat usable system of the present embodiment.
The seat availability system 1 includes a ticket sales server 10, a user terminal 20 connected to the ticket sales server 10 via a network, and a seat control device 30 capable of communicating with the ticket sales server 10 and the user terminal 20. .

(Ticket sales server 10)
The ticket sales server 10 includes a processor, a memory, a storage, and a communication unit (not shown), and these are connected by a bus. The processor is configured by, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), performs various processes by reading and executing various programs stored in a memory, and functions as each unit described below. The memory stores a program executed by the CPU, and includes, for example, a ROM (Read Only Memory) and a RAM (Random Access Memory). The storage stores a database and a control program (not shown) described later. The communication unit performs data communication with the user terminal 20 and the seat control device 30 via a network.
The ticket sales server 10 includes a sales unit 11, an acquisition unit 12, a determination unit 13, a transmission unit 14, a reception unit 15, a prediction unit 16, a change unit 17, a return unit 18, a notification unit 19, , A ticket information database (DB) 100.
 販売手段11は、チケット情報DB100に記憶されているチケット情報テーブルを参照して、競技情報を含むチケットを販売する。本実施形態において、「競技情報」には、競技の開催日時(例えば、2018年7月31日18:00等)、競技内容(例えば、Aチーム対Bチームのサッカーの試合であることを示す情報等)、競技場名等が含まれる。また、チケットには、それぞれ、競技場の各座席に設置され、各座席を識別する識別情報に紐付いた座席IDが対応づけられている。 The selling means 11 refers to the ticket information table stored in the ticket information DB 100 and sells the ticket including the competition information. In the present embodiment, the “competition information” indicates the date and time of the competition (for example, 18:00 on July 31, 2018) and the content of the competition (for example, a soccer match between team A and team B). Information, etc.) and the stadium name. In addition, each ticket is associated with a seat ID which is installed at each seat of the stadium and is associated with identification information for identifying each seat.
 また、詳しくは後述するが、販売手段11は、変更手段17により、販売金額が変更されたチケットを再販する。 Also, as will be described in detail later, the selling means 11 resells the ticket whose sales amount has been changed by the changing means 17.
 販売手段11は、具体的には、チケットの競技情報及び当該チケットの販売金額を、例えば、チケットを販売するWebページに公開し、当該Webページにおいて、ユーザから購入の意思表示を示す情報を受信した場合に、販売金額による決済後、当該ユーザのユーザ端末20に、チケット識別情報に競技情報及び座席IDが対応づけられたチケット情報を送信する。 Specifically, the selling means 11 publishes the competition information of the ticket and the sales amount of the ticket on, for example, a Web page for selling the ticket, and receives information indicating the intention of purchase from the user on the Web page. In this case, after the settlement with the sales amount, the ticket information in which the game information and the seat ID are associated with the ticket identification information is transmitted to the user terminal 20 of the user.
 チケット情報データベース(DB)100は、記憶手段の一例であり、チケット情報テーブルや、再販テーブルが記憶されている。
 図3は、チケット情報テーブルを模式的に示す図である。
 チケット情報テーブルは、販売するチケットを識別するチケット識別情報に、競技情報、販売金額、座席ID、座席IDに紐づいた識別情報、再販の可否を示す再販情報等が対応付けられて、チケット情報DB100に記憶されている。再販テーブルについては、後述する。
The ticket information database (DB) 100 is an example of a storage unit, and stores a ticket information table and a resale table.
FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically showing the ticket information table.
In the ticket information table, the ticket identification information for identifying the ticket to be sold is associated with the competition information, the sales amount, the seat ID, the identification information associated with the seat ID, the resale information indicating whether or not resale is possible, and the like. It is stored in the DB 100. The resale table will be described later.
 図2に戻って、取得手段12は、ユーザが操作するユーザ端末20から、座席50(図1参照)に設置された識別情報60(図1参照)を取得する。具体的には、取得手段12は、ユーザ端末20から、購入されたチケット情報に含まれるチケット識別情報及び識別情報60(又は座席ID)を受信する。 Returning to FIG. 2, the acquiring unit 12 acquires the identification information 60 (see FIG. 1) installed on the seat 50 (see FIG. 1) from the user terminal 20 operated by the user. Specifically, the acquisition unit 12 receives, from the user terminal 20, the ticket identification information and the identification information 60 (or the seat ID) included in the purchased ticket information.
 判定手段13は、識別情報60に紐づいた座席IDと、購入されたチケットの座席IDとが、一致するかを判定する。具体的には、判定手段13は、チケット情報テーブル(図3参照)を参照して、取得手段12が取得したチケット識別情報及び識別情報60に基づき、チケット情報テーブルにおいて、当該チケット識別情報に対応付けられた識別情報60や座席IDと、取得手段12が取得した識別情報60や座席IDとが一致するかを判定する。 The determination means 13 determines whether the seat ID associated with the identification information 60 matches the seat ID of the purchased ticket. Specifically, the determination unit 13 refers to the ticket information table (see FIG. 3), and based on the ticket identification information and the identification information 60 acquired by the acquisition unit 12, corresponds to the ticket identification information in the ticket information table. It is determined whether the attached identification information 60 or seat ID matches the identification information 60 or the seat ID acquired by the acquisition unit 12.
 送信手段14は、判定手段13が一致すると判定した場合に、チケット情報テーブル(図3参照)を参照して、取得手段12が取得したチケット識別情報に対応付けられたロック解除情報を、ユーザ端末20に送信する。本実施形態において、「ロック解除情報」は、座席制御装置30による座席50のロックを解除するための情報であれば任意の情報とすることができる。例えば、「ロック解除情報」は、座席50をロックするロック手段がダイヤルロックであれば、所定桁数の数字である。このようなロック解除情報は、ユーザ端末20に表示されたり、ユーザ端末20から座席制御装置30に送信されたりしてもよい。ユーザは、ユーザ端末20に表示されたロック解除情報に基づき、ロック手段を操作することでロックを解除したり、座席制御装置30に送信し、座席制御装置30の制御によりロック手段のロックを解除させたりする。 When the determining unit 13 determines that the passwords match each other, the transmitting unit 14 refers to the ticket information table (see FIG. 3) and transmits the unlock information associated with the ticket identification information acquired by the acquiring unit 12 to the user terminal. 20. In the present embodiment, the “unlock information” may be any information as long as it is information for unlocking the seat 50 by the seat control device 30. For example, the “unlock information” is a predetermined number of digits if the locking means for locking the seat 50 is a dial lock. Such unlock information may be displayed on the user terminal 20 or transmitted from the user terminal 20 to the seat control device 30. Based on the unlock information displayed on the user terminal 20, the user operates the lock means to release the lock, transmits the lock to the seat control device 30, and unlocks the lock means under the control of the seat control device 30. Or let it.
 なお、取得手段12及び判定手段13は、ユーザ端末20で実現してもよい。詳しくは後述するが、この場合、チケット情報に、ロック解除情報も含まれ、ユーザ端末20は、識別情報60(図1参照)を取得し、識別情報60に紐づいた座席IDと、購入したチケットの座席IDとが、一致するかを判定し、一致していた場合には、ロック解除情報を、表示したり、座席制御装置30に送信したりする。また、この場合、送信手段14を省略してもよい。 The acquisition unit 12 and the determination unit 13 may be realized by the user terminal 20. As will be described in detail later, in this case, the ticket information also includes unlock information, and the user terminal 20 acquires the identification information 60 (see FIG. 1), and purchases the seat ID associated with the identification information 60 and the purchased seat ID. It is determined whether or not the seat ID of the ticket matches, and when the seat ID matches, the unlock information is displayed or transmitted to the seat control device 30. In this case, the transmitting means 14 may be omitted.
 受信手段15は、競技中に、購入されたチケットの座席IDに紐づいた識別情報60が設置されている座席50が、使用可能状態からロック状態になった場合、ユーザ端末20や、座席制御装置30から、座席50が再度ロックされたことを示す再ロック情報を、座席IDとともに受信する。この場合、チケット販売サーバ10は、チケット情報DB100に記憶されているチケット情報テーブル(図3参照)において、当該座席IDが対応づけられたチケット識別情報の再販情報を、再販不可であることを示す「否」情報から、再販可能であることを示す「可」情報に更新する。 When the seat 50 in which the identification information 60 linked to the seat ID of the purchased ticket is changed from the usable state to the locked state during the competition, the receiving means 15 performs the user terminal 20 or the seat control. From the device 30, re-lock information indicating that the seat 50 is locked again is received together with the seat ID. In this case, the ticket sales server 10 indicates in the ticket information table (see FIG. 3) stored in the ticket information DB 100 that the resale information of the ticket identification information associated with the seat ID is not resold. The information is renewed from the “no” information to the “possible” information indicating that resale is possible.
 予想手段16は、競技の終了時間を予想する。競技が、例えば、野球やラグビーの試合であった場合、試合時間が変動する。このような場合、予想手段16は、競技の終了時間をAIにより予想する。予想手段16は、例えば、競技中のある時点における点差や競技の進捗(例えば、野球であれば何回のどちらの攻撃なのか等)と、競技の終了時間との相関関係についての機械学習済みモデルによって、ある時点において予想される競技の終了時間を算出する。なお、「ある時点」は、競技中の任意の時点でよく、例えば、受信手段15が再ロック情報を受信した時点でもよいし、所定間隔毎(例えば、10分毎等)でもよい。なお、機械学習済みモデルにおけるアルゴリズムは、教師あり学習を用いることができるが、このほかにも、機械学習用のアルゴリズムは、公知の各種のアルゴリズムを用いてよい。 The prediction means 16 predicts the end time of the game. When the game is, for example, a game of baseball or rugby, the game time fluctuates. In such a case, the prediction means 16 predicts the end time of the game by AI. For example, the predicting means 16 has already machine-learned a correlation between a point difference at a certain point in the game, the progress of the game (for example, how many attacks in baseball, which of which attacks, etc.) and the end time of the game. The model calculates the expected end time of the game at a certain point in time. The “certain time point” may be any time point during the competition, for example, a time point when the receiving unit 15 receives the re-lock information, or at a predetermined interval (for example, every 10 minutes). The algorithm in the machine-learned model can use supervised learning, but other well-known algorithms for machine learning may use various known algorithms.
 変更手段17は、チケット情報テーブル(図3参照)の再販情報が、「否」情報から、「可」情報に更新された場合、当該更新されたチケット識別情報のチケットを再販する場合の販売金額を、競技前の販売金額から、減額した金額に変更する。詳細には、変更手段17は、後述するチケット情報DB100に記憶されている再販テーブルを参照して、予想手段16が予想した競技の終了時間や、予定された競技の終了時間(予め試合時間が設定されている競技(例えば、サッカーの試合等)の終了時間)に基づき、チケットを再販する場合の販売金額を決定する。 When the resale information in the ticket information table (see FIG. 3) is updated from “no” information to “possible” information, the change unit 17 sells the ticket for reselling the ticket with the updated ticket identification information. Is changed from the sales amount before the competition to the reduced amount. In detail, the changing unit 17 refers to a resale table stored in the ticket information DB 100 described later, and refers to the end time of the game predicted by the prediction unit 16 or the end time of the scheduled game (the game time is set in advance. Based on the set competition (for example, the end time of a soccer game or the like), the selling price for reselling the ticket is determined.
 また、販売手段11は、競技中に、購入されたチケットの座席IDに紐づいた識別情報が設置されている座席50が、使用可能状態からロック状態になった場合、当該座席IDに対応づけられたチケットを、変更手段17が決定した販売金額で再販する。 Further, when the seat 50 in which the identification information linked to the seat ID of the purchased ticket is changed from the usable state to the locked state during the competition, the selling means 11 associates the seat 50 with the seat ID. The sold ticket is resold at the sales amount determined by the change means 17.
 還元手段18は、販売手段11による再販によりチケットが購入された場合、競技前の販売金額でチケットを購入したユーザに還元する金額を決定する。詳細には、還元手段18は、後述するチケット情報DB100に記憶されている再販テーブルを参照して、予想手段16が予想した競技の終了時間や、予定された競技の終了時間に基づき、競技前の販売金額でチケットを購入したユーザに還元する金額を決定する。還元手段18は、決定した金額を任意の方法により、ユーザに還元することができる。例えば、次回以降のチケットの購入時に使用できる(決定した金額相当の)クーポンの発行や、仮想通貨や現実の通貨をユーザの指定口座等に送金してもよい。 Return means 18 determines the amount to be returned to the user who purchased the ticket with the sales amount before the competition when the ticket is purchased by the resale by the sales means 11. In detail, the return unit 18 refers to a resale table stored in a ticket information DB 100 described later, and based on the end time of the competition predicted by the prediction unit 16 or the end time of the scheduled competition, the return unit 18 The amount to be returned to the user who purchased the ticket is determined by the sales price of The return means 18 can return the determined amount to the user by an arbitrary method. For example, it is possible to issue a coupon (equivalent to the determined amount) that can be used at the time of purchasing a ticket next time, or remit a virtual currency or a real currency to a user's designated account or the like.

The resale table shows the elapsed time ratio (elapsed time (elapsed time of the competition at the start of resale) / the total time of the expected (scheduled) competition × 100) (%) and the resale discount rate (resale for the sales amount before the competition A rate of reduction at the time) (%) is associated with a return rate (a rate of return to the user who purchased with the pre-competition sales amount relative to the pre-competition sales amount) (%).
 図4に示す例において、例えば、チケットの競技前の販売金額が2000円であり、予想手段16により競技の終了時間が、競技の開始時間から2時間後であると予想され、競技中のある時点で競技の開始時間から30分(経過時間比率:25%)経過していた場合について説明する。
 この場合、変更手段17は、経過時間比率が、20%以上40%未満なので、リセール割引き率を40%とし、チケットの競技前の販売金額2000円に0.4を乗じた800円を減額分とし、再販するチケットの販売金額を1200(2000-800)円に決定する。
In the example shown in FIG. 4, for example, the selling price of the ticket before the competition is 2,000 yen, and the ending time of the competition is predicted by the prediction means 16 to be two hours after the start time of the competition. A case where 30 minutes (elapsed time ratio: 25%) has elapsed from the start time of the competition at the time will be described.
In this case, since the elapsed time ratio is 20% or more and less than 40%, the changing means 17 sets the resale discount rate to 40% and reduces the pre-sale ticket sales amount of 2000 yen by 0.4 to 800 yen. And the selling price of the ticket to be resold is determined to be 1200 (2000-800) yen.
 また、上記販売金額でチケットが購入された場合、還元手段18は、経過時間比率が、20%以上40%未満なので、還元率を50%とし、チケットの競技前の販売金額2000円に0.5を乗じた1000円を、競技前の販売金額でチケットを購入したユーザに還元する金額として決定する。 When a ticket is purchased with the above sales amount, the return means 18 sets the return rate to 50% since the elapsed time ratio is 20% or more and less than 40%, and reduces the ticket sales price to 2000 yen before the competition. The 1000 yen multiplied by 5 is determined as the amount to be returned to the user who purchased the ticket with the sales amount before the competition.
 図2に戻って、通知手段19は、販売手段11が、チケットを、変更手段17が決定した販売金額で再販していることを通知する。詳細には、通知手段19は、再販しているチケットのチケット情報と変更手段17により減額された販売金額とを示す再販情報を、予め登録されているユーザのメールアドレスに送信したり、SNS(Social Networking Service)に表示したりする。また、座席使用可能システム1において、ユーザ端末20から、ユーザ端末20の位置情報を受信していた場合には、競技場を中心とした所定範囲に位置するユーザ端末20に再販情報を送信してもよい。なお、「所定範囲」は、予め設定した範囲(例えば、半径1000mの円内)でもよいし、経過時間比率に応じた範囲(例えば、経過時間比率が20%以上40%未満であれば半径1000mの円内であり、経過時間比率が60%以上80%未満であれば半径100mの円内等)でもよい。 Returning to FIG. 2, the notifying unit 19 notifies that the selling unit 11 resells the ticket at the sales amount determined by the changing unit 17. More specifically, the notifying unit 19 transmits resale information indicating the ticket information of the ticket being resold and the sales amount reduced by the changing unit 17 to a pre-registered user's mail address, SNS ( Social Networking Service). In the seat availability system 1, when the position information of the user terminal 20 is received from the user terminal 20, the resale information is transmitted to the user terminal 20 located in a predetermined range centering on the stadium. Is also good. The “predetermined range” may be a preset range (for example, within a circle having a radius of 1000 m), or a range corresponding to the elapsed time ratio (for example, a radius of 1000 m if the elapsed time ratio is 20% or more and less than 40%). And if the elapsed time ratio is 60% or more and less than 80%, it may be within a circle having a radius of 100 m).

When receiving the re-lock signal, the seat control means 31 transmits re-lock information indicating that the seat 50 has been locked again to the ticket sales server 10 and the user terminal 20 together with the seat ID.
(座席50)
 次に、座席使用可能システム1が適用された座席50について説明する。
 図5は、座席使用可能システムが適用された座席を説明する図である。図5(a)は、ロック状態の座席を示す図である。図5(b)は、使用可能状態の座席を示す図である。
(Seat 50)
Next, the seat 50 to which the seat usable system 1 is applied will be described.
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a seat to which the seat usable system is applied. FIG. 5A is a diagram illustrating a seat in a locked state. FIG. 5B is a diagram illustrating the seat in an available state.
 座席50は、背もたれ部51と、座部52と、枠体53と、を備える。枠体53は、床面に基端が固定され、上方に延び、背もたれ部51が固定され、座部52の基端を回動自在に軸支する。座部52は、先端側が背もたれ部51の方向に回動するように付勢されており、先端側を背もたれ部51から離れる方向に回動させることで、座面が略水平になる位置まで回動する。 The seat 50 includes a backrest 51, a seat 52, and a frame 53. The frame 53 has a base end fixed to the floor, extends upward, the backrest 51 is fixed, and the base end of the seat 52 is rotatably supported. The seat 52 is biased so that the front end rotates in the direction of the backrest 51. By turning the front end in a direction away from the backrest 51, the seat 52 is turned to a position where the seat surface becomes substantially horizontal. Move.
 また、枠体53には、座席制御装置30が取り付けられており、図5(a)に示すロック状態では、ロック手段32のロック部材32a(図5に示す例では軸状体)が、座部52の方向に突出した状態(図5(a)に示す例では、座部52の裏面に沿った略水平方向に向いた状態)であり、図5(b)に示す使用可能状態では、ロック手段32のロック部材32aが、座部52の方向とは異なる方向に向いた状態(図5(b)に示す例では、32aの先端が下方を向いた状態)である。 Further, the seat control device 30 is attached to the frame 53, and in the locked state shown in FIG. 5A, the lock member 32a (the shaft-like body in the example shown in FIG. 5) of the locking means 32 is seated. 5A (in the example shown in FIG. 5A, a state in which it is oriented substantially in the horizontal direction along the back surface of the seat 52), and in the usable state shown in FIG. The lock member 32a of the lock means 32 is in a state in which the lock member 32a faces in a direction different from the direction of the seat portion 52 (in the example shown in FIG. 5B, the tip of 32a faces downward).
 なお、座席50を、ロック状態と使用可能状態にする物理的な構成を、例えば、ユーザにより操作可能なダイヤルロック等で構成し、ロック解除情報をダイヤルロックの解除番号とし、ユーザがダイヤルロックをこの解除番号にする操作をすることで、ロックを解除可能とすることで、座席制御装置30を省略してもよい。 The physical configuration for setting the seat 50 in the locked state and the usable state is, for example, a dial lock or the like that can be operated by the user, and the unlock information is a dial lock release number. By performing the operation of setting the release number, the lock can be released, so that the seat control device 30 may be omitted.
 <座席使用可能処理>
 次に、座席使用可能システム1による座席使用可能処理の一例について、図6を参照して説明する。
 図6は、本実施形態の座席使用可能処理の一例を示すフローチャートである。
 座席使用可能システム1は、座席使用可能処理に先立ち、チケット販売サーバ10において、販売手段11により、競技場の各座席50(図5参照)を識別する識別情報60(図5参照)に紐付いた座席IDが対応づけられたチケットを、ユーザに販売する。チケットを購入したユーザは、競技場において、チケットに対応づけられた座席IDの座席50の前に行く。このとき、座席50は、図5(a)に示すロック状態である。そして、ユーザは、ユーザ端末20により、座席50に配置された識別情報60を読み取り、チケット識別情報とともに、チケット販売サーバ10に送信する。この後、座席使用可能システム1は、座席使用可能処理を実行する。
<Seat available processing>
Next, an example of the seat availability process performed by the seat availability system 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the seat availability process according to the present embodiment.
Prior to the seat availability process, the seat availability system 1 is linked to the identification information 60 (see FIG. 5) for identifying each seat 50 (see FIG. 5) of the stadium by the sales means 11 in the ticket sales server 10. The ticket associated with the seat ID is sold to the user. The user who purchased the ticket goes to the stadium before the seat 50 having the seat ID associated with the ticket. At this time, the seat 50 is in the locked state shown in FIG. Then, the user uses the user terminal 20 to read the identification information 60 arranged on the seat 50, and transmits the identification information 60 to the ticket sales server 10 together with the ticket identification information. Thereafter, the seat availability system 1 executes a seat availability process.
 ステップS1において、チケット販売サーバ10の取得手段12は、ユーザ端末20から、座席50に設置された識別情報60を取得する。 In step S <b> 1, the acquisition unit 12 of the ticket sales server 10 acquires the identification information 60 installed on the seat 50 from the user terminal 20.
 ステップS2において、チケット販売サーバ10の判定手段13は、識別情報60に紐づいた座席IDと、購入されたチケットの座席IDとが、一致するかを判定する。判定手段13は、一致すると判定した場合にはステップS3に処理を移し、一致しないと判定した場合にはステップS4に処理を移す。 In step S2, the determination means 13 of the ticket sales server 10 determines whether the seat ID associated with the identification information 60 matches the seat ID of the purchased ticket. The determining means 13 shifts the processing to step S3 when determining that they match, and shifts the processing to step S4 when determining that they do not match.
 ステップS3において、チケット販売サーバ10の送信手段14は、チケット情報テーブル(図3参照)を参照して、取得手段12が取得したチケット識別情報に対応付けられたロック解除情報を、ユーザ端末20に送信する。 In step S3, the transmitting unit 14 of the ticket sales server 10 refers to the ticket information table (see FIG. 3) and sends the unlock information associated with the ticket identification information acquired by the acquiring unit 12 to the user terminal 20. Send.
 ユーザは、ユーザ端末20により、送受信手段23でチケット販売サーバ10からロック解除情報を受信し、ロック解除情報を座席制御装置30に送信する。
 そして、座席制御装置30は、座席50に対し、図5(a)に示す状態から、座席制御手段31の制御により、ロック手段32の駆動部を制御して、ロック部材32aを、座席50をロック状態とする位置から、座席50を使用可能状態とする位置に移動させる。
 これにより、座席50が使用可能状態となり、座部52の先端側を背もたれ部51から離れる方向に回動させることで、座面が略水平になる位置まで回動することで、図5(b)に示す状態となる。
The user receives the unlock information from the ticket sales server 10 by the transmitting / receiving means 23 by the user terminal 20 and transmits the unlock information to the seat control device 30.
Then, the seat control device 30 controls the driving unit of the locking means 32 under the control of the seat control means 31 from the state shown in FIG. The seat 50 is moved from the locked position to a position where the seat 50 can be used.
As a result, the seat 50 is in a usable state, and by rotating the distal end side of the seat portion 52 in a direction away from the backrest portion 51, the seat surface is rotated to a position at which the seat surface becomes substantially horizontal, and FIG. ).
 ステップS4において、チケット販売サーバ10の送信手段14は、送信された識別情報60に紐づいた座席IDと、購入されたチケットの座席IDとが、一致しないことを示す不一致情報を、ユーザ端末20に送信する。 In step S4, the transmitting unit 14 of the ticket sales server 10 transmits the mismatch information indicating that the seat ID linked to the transmitted identification information 60 does not match the seat ID of the purchased ticket to the user terminal 20. Send to
 ユーザは、ユーザ端末20により、送受信手段23でチケット販売サーバ10から不一致情報を受信し、入出力手段22に表示する。これにより、ユーザは、購入したチケットに対応づけられている座席と、ロック状態を解除しようとした座席が違うことが分かる。 The user receives the mismatch information from the ticket sales server 10 by the transmission / reception means 23 by the user terminal 20 and displays the information on the input / output means 22. This allows the user to know that the seat associated with the purchased ticket is different from the seat whose lock state is to be released.
 <チケット再販処理>
 次に、座席使用可能システム1によるチケット再販処理の一例について、図7を参照して説明する。
 図7は、本実施形態のチケット再販処理の一例を示すフローチャートである。
 座席使用可能システム1において、ユーザは、競技の途中で帰る場合、座席制御装置30を操作し、ロック部材32a(図5参照)を、図5(b)に示す座席50を使用可能状態とする位置から、図5(a)に示す座席50をロック状態とする位置にする。これにより、座席制御手段31は、検出手段33から再ロック信号を受信し、座席50が再度ロックされたことを示す再ロック情報を、座席IDとともに、チケット販売サーバ10やユーザ端末20に送信する。この後、座席使用可能システム1は、チケット再販処理を実行する。
<Ticket resale processing>
Next, an example of a ticket resale process by the seat availability system 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the ticket resale process according to the present embodiment.
In the seat availability system 1, when the user returns during the competition, the user operates the seat control device 30 to change the lock member 32 a (see FIG. 5) to a state where the seat 50 shown in FIG. 5B can be used. From the position, the seat 50 shown in FIG. Thereby, the seat control unit 31 receives the re-lock signal from the detection unit 33 and transmits re-lock information indicating that the seat 50 is locked again to the ticket sales server 10 and the user terminal 20 together with the seat ID. . Thereafter, the seat availability system 1 executes a ticket resale process.
 ステップS11において、チケット販売サーバ10の受信手段15は、ユーザ端末20や、座席制御装置30から、座席50が再度ロックされたことを示す再ロック情報を、座席IDとともに受信する。 In step S11, the receiving means 15 of the ticket sales server 10 receives, from the user terminal 20 or the seat control device 30, re-lock information indicating that the seat 50 has been locked again together with the seat ID.
 ステップS12において、チケット販売サーバ10の予想手段16は、競技の終了時間をAIにより予想する。 In step S12, the prediction means 16 of the ticket sales server 10 predicts the end time of the game by AI.
 ステップS13において、チケット販売サーバ10の変更手段17は、チケット情報テーブル(図3参照)の再販情報が、「否」情報から、「可」情報に更新された場合、当該更新されたチケット識別情報のチケットを再販する場合の販売金額を、競技前の販売金額から、減額した金額に変更する。 In step S13, when the resale information in the ticket information table (see FIG. 3) is updated from “no” information to “possible” information in step S13, the changing means 17 Is changed from the pre-competition sales amount to a reduced amount.
 ステップS14において、チケット販売サーバ10の販売手段11は、競技中に、購入されたチケットの座席IDに紐づいた識別情報が設置されている座席50が、使用可能状態からロック状態になった場合、当該座席IDに対応づけられたチケットを、ステップS13で変更手段17が変更した販売金額で再販する。 In step S14, the sales unit 11 of the ticket sales server 10 determines that the seat 50 in which the identification information associated with the seat ID of the purchased ticket has been changed from the available state to the locked state during the competition. Then, the ticket associated with the seat ID is resold at the sales amount changed by the changing unit 17 in step S13.
 ステップS15において、チケット販売サーバ10の通知手段19は、販売手段11が、チケットを、ステップS13で変更手段17が変更した販売金額で再販していることを通知する。 In step S15, the notifying unit 19 of the ticket sales server 10 notifies that the selling unit 11 is reselling the ticket with the sales amount changed by the changing unit 17 in step S13.
 ステップS16において、チケット販売サーバ10の販売手段11は、ステップS14で再販したチケットが、ユーザにより購入されたか否かを判定し、購入されたと判定した場合にはステップS17に処理を移し、購入されていないと判定した場合にはステップS15に処理を戻す。 In step S16, the selling means 11 of the ticket sales server 10 determines whether or not the ticket resold in step S14 has been purchased by the user. If it is determined that the ticket has been purchased, the process proceeds to step S17, where the ticket is purchased. If it is determined that there is not, the process returns to step S15.
 ステップS17において、チケット販売サーバ10の還元手段18は、販売手段11による再販によりチケットが購入された場合、競技前の販売金額でチケットを購入したユーザに還元する金額を決定し、ユーザに還元する。 In step S17, when the ticket is purchased by the resale by the selling unit 11, the return unit 18 of the ticket sales server 10 determines the amount to be returned to the user who purchased the ticket with the sales amount before the competition, and returns the amount to the user. .
 <効果>
 以上説明した実施形態によれば、ある座席50に紐づいたチケットを購入していないユーザは、当該座席50のロックを解除することができず、当該座席50を使用できない。このため、当該座席50に紐づいたチケットを購入したユーザが、当該座席50を使用する場合に、他人が使用していた等の問題が生ずるのを未然に防止できる。一方、当該座席50に紐づいたチケットを購入したユーザは、ロック状態を解除し、座席50を使用可能状態にすることができる。
 したがって、座席使用可能システム1によれば、ユーザが購入したチケットに紐づいた座席50を使用可能にすることができる。
<Effect>
According to the embodiment described above, a user who has not purchased a ticket associated with a certain seat 50 cannot unlock the seat 50 and cannot use the seat 50. For this reason, when the user who purchased the ticket linked to the seat 50 uses the seat 50, it is possible to prevent a problem that another user uses the seat 50 from occurring. On the other hand, the user who has purchased the ticket associated with the seat 50 can release the locked state and make the seat 50 usable.
Therefore, according to the seat availability system 1, the seat 50 associated with the ticket purchased by the user can be made available.
 また、チケット販売サーバ10は、座席50に設けられている物理的な機構により、座席50において、ロック状態を解除し、使用可能状態にするためのロック解錠情報を送信する。例えば、物理的な機構を簡易的なダイヤルロックで構成し、このダイヤルロックの解除番号をロック解錠情報としてユーザがユーザ端末20で受信し、ユーザがダイヤルロックを解錠番号に合わせることで、座席50のロックを解除できる。このため、既存の座席50に、一般的なダイヤルロックを設置するだけで、座席使用可能システム1を適用することが可能となる。 {Circle around (2)} The ticket sales server 10 uses a physical mechanism provided on the seat 50 to transmit unlocking information for releasing the locked state and enabling the seat 50 to be used. For example, a physical mechanism is configured by a simple dial lock, and the user receives the unlock number of the dial lock as lock unlock information at the user terminal 20 and the user adjusts the dial lock to the unlock number, The seat 50 can be unlocked. Therefore, only by installing a general dial lock on the existing seat 50, the seat usable system 1 can be applied.
 また、座席制御装置30のロック手段32は、使用可能状態の座席50を、再度、ロック状態にすることを可能としたので、例えば、ある座席50に対応づけられたチケットを購入したユーザが、競技の途中で帰ってしまった場合に、当該座席50を、再度、ロック状態にすることできるので、当該座席50が他のユーザに無断使用されてしまうのを防止できる。 Further, the locking means 32 of the seat control device 30 enables the seat 50 in the usable state to be locked again, so that, for example, a user who has purchased a ticket associated with a certain seat 50 If the player returns in the middle of the competition, the seat 50 can be locked again, so that the seat 50 can be prevented from being used by other users without permission.
 また、座席制御装置30の検出手段33により、座席50が、ロック状態か使用可能状態かを検出する。これにより、チケット販売サーバ10において、座席50が、ロック状態か使用可能状態かを判別することが可能となるので、例えば、ある座席50がロック状態であれば、当該座席50に対応づけられたチケットを再販することが可能となる。 (4) The detection means 33 of the seat control device 30 detects whether the seat 50 is in the locked state or the usable state. Thus, in the ticket sales server 10, it is possible to determine whether the seat 50 is in the locked state or the usable state.
