By the way, the parking support device may guide the autonomous driving vehicle between the boarding / alighting area and the parking area by using an automatic guided vehicle. An automatic guided vehicle is a vehicle that can be carried by mounting a vehicle such as an autonomous driving vehicle.

As a result of detailed examination by the inventor, it was found that when the self-driving vehicle moves by itself, the parking accuracy is lower than that when the vehicle is transported by an automatic guided vehicle, and the utilization efficiency of the parking space is lowered. On the other hand, when an automatic guided vehicle transports an autonomous vehicle, the number of vehicles that can move at the same time is limited compared to the self-driving vehicle, and the time required for loading and unloading increases. ..

The self-driving vehicle is configured to be capable of self-driving in the parking lot.

Further, the management device includes a self-propelled setting unit, a transport setting unit, and a route transmission unit. When the self-driving setting unit receives a movement request that is a request to move the autonomous vehicle between the boarding / alighting area and the parking area, the self-driving setting unit determines the part of the guidance route connecting the boarding / alighting area and the parking area on the boarding / alighting area side. It is configured to be set as a self-propelled route in which an autonomous vehicle moves by self-propelled.

Upon receiving a movement request, the transport setting unit is configured to set a portion of the guidance route on the parking area side as a transport route for the automatic guided vehicle to transport the autonomous vehicle. The route transmission unit is configured to transmit the self-propelled route to the autonomous vehicle and transmit the transport route to the automatic guided vehicle.

According to such a configuration, since the self-driving vehicle is self-driving in the part of the guidance route on the boarding / alighting area side, the unmanned transport vehicle is used for transporting other vehicles while the self-driving vehicle is self-driving. It can shorten the time required for loading and unloading. Further, since the automatically driven vehicle is transported by the automatic guided vehicle at the portion of the guidance route on the parking area side, the vehicle can be parked accurately and the parking efficiency can be improved.

The parking setting process is, for example, a process that is started when the power of the management device 39 is turned on and then repeatedly executed. Further, in the following, it is also described that the process executed by the control unit 47 (particularly the CPU 51) of the management device 39 is executed by the management device 39.

The management device 39 determines whether or not the parking request signal has been received in step 11 of the parking setting process (hereinafter referred to as “S”) 11 shown in FIG.

Here, when a user such as an occupant of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 inputs a parking request by operating the terminal device 43, the terminal device 43 transmits a parking request signal corresponding to this input to the management device 39. At this time, the user inputs vehicle information such as a number plate for identifying the vehicle, user information such as a user ID and a password for identifying the user, and other necessary information to the terminal device 43. The parking request is one of the movement requests for moving the autonomous driving vehicle 18 between the boarding / alighting areas 3 and 5 and the parking area 7, and the movement request includes a delivery request described later.

When the terminal device 43 is operated, unique information such as an identification ID for identifying the terminal device 43, vehicle information, user information, etc. are transmitted to the management device 39. After manipulating the parking request, the user can leave the parking lot and head for the destination.

Subsequently, the management device 39 transmits the map information of the parking lot to the autonomous driving vehicle 18 in S12. That is, when the management device 39 inputs that the user starts parking at the terminal device 43, the management device 39 transmits the map information of the parking lot to the autonomous driving vehicle 18.

The self-driving vehicle 18 that has received the map information is set to return the position information and the vehicle state as described later. Therefore, the management device 39 receives the position information transmitted from the autonomous driving vehicle 18 in S13. Subsequently, the process proceeds to S14, and the management device 39 of the management device 39 receives the vehicle state transmitted from the self-driving vehicle 18.

Here, the vehicle state indicates the state of the self-driving vehicle 18. More specifically, the failure diagnosis result in the self-driving vehicle 18 and the data capable of diagnosing an abnormality such as the sensor value of the air pressure, temperature, residual fuel, etc. of the self-driving vehicle 18 are shown.

Subsequently, the management device 39 carries out the automatic driving vehicle warehousing process in S15. The self-driving vehicle warehousing process is a process of self-propelling the self-driving vehicle 18 to the temporary parking area 9A. When the automatic driving vehicle warehousing process is completed, the management device 39 performs the unmanned vehicle warehousing process in S16.

The automatic guided vehicle warehousing process is a process of moving the autonomous driving vehicle 18 from the temporary parking area 9A to the parking position by using the automatic guided vehicle 21. When the automatic guided vehicle warehousing process is completed, the management device 39 ends the parking setting process.

[1-2-2. Self-driving vehicle warehousing process]
The self-driving vehicle warehousing process executed by the management device 39 will be described with reference to FIG. In the self-driving vehicle warehousing process, first, in S21, the parking position setting unit 47A of the management device 39 selects a parking position that is a parking target that is a final arrival target in the parking area 7. Further, the parking position setting unit 47A sets a temporary parking target, which is a temporary parking target, in the temporary parking area 9A.

As the parking position, a section in the parking area 7 that is vacant except for the section set in the temporary parking area 9A is selected. As the temporary parking target, a vacant section in the temporary parking area 9A is selected. The management device 39 determines the state of each section as follows, for example. When the self-driving vehicle 18 parks in a certain section, the self-driving vehicle 18 sends the identification information of the section and the parking start information to the management device 39. Further, when the vehicle is transported out of the section, the automatic guided vehicle 21 sends the identification information of the section and the parking end information to the management device 39. Further, when the self-driving vehicle 18 leaves the previously parked section, the self-driving vehicle 18 sends the identification information of the section and the parking end information to the management device 39.

The management device 39 determines the state of each section based on the history of information sent from the autonomous driving vehicle 18. Further, the management device 39 may determine the state of each section based on the information supplied by the infrastructure 41.

If there is only one vacant section, the management device 39 sets that section as the parking position or temporary parking target. When there are a plurality of vacant sections, the management device 39 selects one section from the plurality of vacant sections as a parking position or a temporary parking target based on a predetermined criterion. As the criteria for selecting the parking position, for example, the criteria for selecting the section closest to the warehousing room 3, the criteria for selecting the section closest to the warehousing room 5, and the area where the vacant sections are gathered. There are criteria such as selecting a certain section. As criteria for selecting a temporary parking target, for example, there are criteria for selecting the section farthest from the warehousing room 3, criteria for selecting the section closest to the parking position, and the like.

Subsequently, in S22, the management device 39 sets a guidance route using the map information of the parking lot. Here, the management device 39 sets a guidance route from the current location of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to the parking position via the temporary parking target.

Set as a driving route.

Subsequently, in S23, the route transmission unit 47D of the management device 39 transmits information representing the guidance route set in S22 (hereinafter referred to as guidance route information) using the communication unit 49. In the automatic driving vehicle warehousing process, the route transmission unit 47D transmits guidance route information, that is, a self-propelled route to the automatic driving vehicle 18.

The guidance route information also serves as an instruction to start parking for the autonomous driving vehicle 18. The self-driving vehicle 18 receives the guidance route information, and automatic driving according to the guidance route is started.

Subsequently, the management device 39 acquires the position information of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 in S24. Subsequently, in S25, the management device 39 receives the vehicle state. The vehicle state here is the same as the vehicle state received in S14.

Subsequently, the management device 39 determines in S28 whether or not the communication unit 49 has received the parking completion notification. The parking completion notification is a notification transmitted by the autonomous driving vehicle 18 when the autonomous driving vehicle 18 is parked at the temporary parking target. When the parking completion notification is received, the management device 39 ends this process. If the parking completion notification is not received, the process returns to S24.

[1-2-3. Automated guided vehicle warehousing process]
The automatic guided vehicle warehousing process executed by the management device 39 will be described with reference to FIG. In the self-driving vehicle warehousing process, the processes S21 to S24 and S28 are carried out in the same manner as the self-driving vehicle warehousing process. At this time, in S21, the temporary parking target and the parking position similar to the temporary parking target and the parking position set in the automatic driving vehicle warehousing process are set. Alternatively, the information on the temporary parking target set in S21 of the self-driving vehicle warehousing process and the information on the parking position are received from the parking position setting unit 47A.

Further, in S22, the transport setting unit 47C of the management device 39 sets the parking position selected in S21 from the current location of the automatic guided vehicle 21 as a guidance route to be traveled by the automatic guided vehicle 21 via the temporary parking target. Set the route to. Of the guidance routes set for the automatic guided vehicle 21, the route from the temporary parking target to the parking target is set as the transport route for the automatic guided vehicle 21 to transport the autonomous driving vehicle 18. The transport route for the unmanned transport vehicle 21 to transport the self-driving vehicle 18 is a portion of the guidance route for the self-driving vehicle 18 on the parking area 7 side with the temporary parking target or the temporary delivery target described later as a boundary.

Further, in S23, the route transmission unit 47D of the management device 39 transmits the guidance route information including the transport route to the automatic guided vehicle 21. The guidance route information transmitted in S23 also serves as an instruction to start parking for the automatic guided vehicle 21. The automatic guided vehicle 21 receives the guidance route information and starts automatic operation according to the guidance route. Further, in S24, the management device 39 acquires the position information of the automatic guided vehicle 21.

Subsequently, in S28, the management device 39 determines whether or not the communication unit 49 has received the parking completion notification. The parking completion notification here is a notification transmitted by the automatic guided vehicle 21 when the autonomous driving vehicle 18 is parked at the parking position which is the end point of the guidance route. When the parking completion notification is received, the management device 39 ends this process. If the parking completion notification is not received, the process returns to S24.

In the above embodiment, the automatic guided vehicle warehousing process is followed by the automatic guided vehicle warehousing process, but the autonomous vehicle warehousing process and the automatic guided vehicle warehousing process may be performed at the same time as much as possible. .. For example, when the temporary parking target is set in the temporary parking area 9A in S21 of the automatic driving vehicle warehousing process, the unmanned transport vehicle warehousing process starts without waiting for the remaining steps of the automatic driving vehicle warehousing process. In S22 of the automatic guided vehicle warehousing process, a guidance route from the current location of the automatic guided vehicle 21 to the parking position via the temporary parking target may be set and supplied to the automatic guided vehicle 21. With such a configuration, the automatic guided vehicle 21 can move from the current location of the automatic guided vehicle 21 to the temporary parking target while the autonomous driving vehicle 18 self-propells from the warehousing room 3 to the temporary parking target. .. Therefore, the time required for the self-driving vehicle 18 to be warehousing can be further shortened.

It should be noted that the automatic guided vehicle warehousing process and the self-driving vehicle warehousing process may be performed at the same time as much as possible. With such a configuration, the time required for the self-driving vehicle 18 to leave the garage can be further shortened.

When parking is completed, the process proceeds to S58, and the autonomous driving vehicle 18 transmits a parking completion notification using the communication unit 75 and ends this process. The management device 39 receives the transmitted parking completion notification.

[1-2-7. Issue setting process executed by the management device 39]
The delivery setting process executed by the management device 39 will be described with reference to FIG. The warehousing setting process is a process of moving the autonomous driving vehicle 18 from the parking position to the unloading vehicle room 5 by using the unmanned transport vehicle 21 or by the self-driving of the autonomous driving vehicle 18.

The delivery setting process is a process that the control unit 47 of the management device 39 repeatedly executes, for example, in parallel with other processes. In the delivery setting process, first, in S61, the management device 39 of the management device 39 determines whether or not the delivery request signal has been received. Here, the warehousing request signal is a signal indicating a request to move the autonomous driving vehicle 18 from the parking position to the warehousing room 5, and when the user operates the terminal device 43 to input the warehousing request, the terminal device 43 A delivery request signal is transmitted to the management device 39.

If there is no delivery request signal, repeat S61. Further, if there is a delivery request signal, the above-mentioned processes S13 to S14 are performed. Then, after S14, in S64, the management device 39 determines whether or not the self-driving vehicle 18 should be moved by reservation.

For example, there are a request for immediate delivery and a request for specifying a delivery time such as 10 minutes later. Here, when the request for specifying the time is received, it is determined that the self-driving vehicle 18 should be moved by reservation, and when the request for immediate exit is received, the self-driving vehicle 18 is reserved. Should not be moved.

If it is determined in S64 that the self-driving vehicle 18 should be moved by reservation, the management device 39 shifts this process to S62. Further, if it is determined in S64 that the autonomous driving vehicle 18 should not be moved by reservation, the movement determination unit 47E of the management device 39 shifts to S18, and whether or not the autonomous driving vehicle 18 can be self-propelled. To judge. Self-driving vehicle delivery is a state in which the self-driving vehicle 18 can move from the parking area 7 to the delivery vehicle compartment 5 without moving other vehicles around the self-driving vehicle 18.

For example, one of the front and rear of the self-driving vehicle 18 faces an area other than the parking lot, that is, a passage, and the self-driving vehicle 18 can move to the exit cab 5 without moving the vehicle in the parking lot. In a certain case, the movement determination unit 47E determines that the vehicle can be delivered by itself. Further, for example, when another vehicle is parked both in front of and behind the self-driving vehicle 18, and the other vehicle moves, or the self-driving vehicle 18 cannot move to the passage unless it moves in the left-right direction, the movement determination unit 47E determines that it cannot be delivered by itself.

If the movement determination unit 47E determines in S18 that the goods can be delivered by self-propelled, this process shifts to S63. When the movement determination unit 47E determines in S18 that the goods cannot be delivered by self-propelled, this process shifts to S62.

The delivery setting unit 47F of the management device 39 carries out the automatic guided vehicle delivery process in S62. The automatic guided vehicle delivery process is a process of moving the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to a temporary parking target, which is a temporary parking target, by using the automatic guided vehicle 21. The delivery setting unit 47F generates a guidance route to the temporary delivery target before the delivery time so that the autonomous driving vehicle 18 can arrive at the delivery room 5 by the delivery time as much as possible, and before the delivery time. In addition, the self-driving vehicle 18 is moved to the temporary delivery target. Therefore, the route transmission unit 47D is configured to transmit the self-propelled route to the automatic driving vehicle 18 and the transport route to the automatic guided vehicle 21 before the delivery time.

The delivery setting unit 47F performs the automatic driving vehicle delivery process in S63 after the automatic guided vehicle delivery process. The self-driving vehicle warehousing process is a process of moving the self-driving vehicle 18 to the warehousing room 5 by itself. When the processing of S63 is performed without performing the processing of S62, the guidance route from the current location of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to the exit cab 5 is set in S63. On the other hand, when the process of S63 is performed after the process of S62, the guidance route from the temporary delivery position to the delivery position is set in S63.

When these processes are completed, the control unit 47 ends this process.

[1-2-8. Automated guided vehicle delivery processing]

As the delivery position, the delivery position that is the final arrival target in the delivery vehicle room 5 is selected. Further, the parking position setting unit 47A sets a temporary delivery target, which is a temporary delivery target, in the temporary delivery area 9B. At this time, if there is an empty parking frame in the parking area 7, and the parking frame is a parking frame that can be self-propelled, the parking position setting unit 47A temporarily sets the parking frame. It may be set as a delivery target.

Further, in S22, the transport setting unit 47C generates a guidance route from the current location of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to the delivery vehicle room 5 via the temporary delivery target. Then, the transport setting unit 47C sets the route from the current location of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to the temporary delivery target among the guidance routes as the transport route. However, the transport setting unit 47C sets a route from the current location of the automatic guided vehicle 21 to the temporary delivery target via the current location of the autonomous driving vehicle 18 as a guidance route to be traveled by the automatic guided vehicle 21.

Further, in S23, when the management device 39 receives a delivery request for which a delivery time is specified, the management device 39 calculates the time required for the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to move along the guidance route. Then, the management device 39 supplies the guided route information to the automatic guided vehicle 21 before the delivery time so that the autonomous driving vehicle 18 can arrive at the delivery vehicle room 5 immediately before the delivery time. At this time, if there is a margin by the delivery time, the supply of the guidance route information may be temporarily suspended.

After S24, the management device 39 determines in S66 whether or not the delivery completion notification has been received. The delivery completion notification is a notification transmitted from the automatic guided vehicle 21 when the automatic guided vehicle 21 transports the autonomous driving vehicle 18 to the temporary delivery target, which is the target position. Alternatively, the delivery completion notification is a notification transmitted from the automatic driving vehicle 18 when the automatic driving vehicle 18 arrives at the delivery vehicle room 5 which is a target position by self-driving.
