以下、本発明の実施形態について図面を参照して説明する。
[第1の実施形態]
図1は、本発明の第1の実施形態に係る車輪止め装置を示す斜視図であり、(a)図は外観を示し、(b)図は内部構成を示している。図1(a)に示すように、車輪止め装置1の本体1aには、車室との対向面にセンサ窓1bが設けられている。本体1aは、例えばSPCC(冷間圧延鋼板)などの材質を板金加工で形成した中空の四角柱状である。この本体1aには、長手方向に沿って板状の固定部材1cが設けられ、固定部材1cにはアンカーボルトで車室の路面に固定するためのボルト孔1d,1eが形成されている。センサ窓1bには、例えばポリカーボネート板(あるいはアクリル板)2が装着される。
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[First Embodiment]
1A and 1B are perspective views showing a wheel stopper according to a first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1A shows an external appearance, and FIG. 1B shows an internal configuration. As shown to Fig.1 (a), the sensor window 1b is provided in the main body 1a of the wheel stopper device 1 in the opposing surface with a vehicle interior. The main body 1a has a hollow quadrangular prism shape formed by sheet metal processing such as SPCC (cold rolled steel plate). The main body 1a is provided with a plate-like fixing member 1c along the longitudinal direction. Bolt holes 1d and 1e are formed in the fixing member 1c for fixing to the road surface of the passenger compartment with anchor bolts. For example, a polycarbonate plate (or acrylic plate) 2 is attached to the sensor window 1b.

図1(b)に示すように、車輪止め装置1の本体1a内には、車両検出ユニット(車両検出部)3−1,3−2、制御ボード4、無線モジュール5及びバッテリ6などを収容して取り付けるための取付部7−1〜7−4が設けられている。車両検出ユニット3−1,3−2はそれぞれ、車室内の車両を検出するもので、車輪止め装置1を設置する場所や周辺環境、必要とする検出特性などに応じて設けるセンサを選択する。センサには、例えば電波、光、磁気及び超音波の少なくともいずれか1つを用いる。複数の異なるセンサを用いて車両を検出することにより、天候などの外乱(光、超音波)、周辺環境の変化(電波、超音波)、埋設金属の影響(磁気)など、互いの弱点を補うことができ、より正確で確実な検出が可能となる。建物物件の場合には、磁気を用いると周辺構造物(金属)の影響で誤作動する可能性があるので、光、電波及び超音波などのセンサを用いると良い。   As shown in FIG. 1 (b), a vehicle detection unit (vehicle detection unit) 3-1, 3-2, a control board 4, a wireless module 5, a battery 6 and the like are accommodated in the main body 1a of the wheel stopper device 1. And mounting portions 7-1 to 7-4 for mounting. Each of the vehicle detection units 3-1 and 3-2 detects a vehicle in the vehicle interior, and selects a sensor to be provided according to the location where the wheel stopper device 1 is installed, the surrounding environment, the required detection characteristics, and the like. For example, at least one of radio waves, light, magnetism, and ultrasonic waves is used as the sensor. By detecting the vehicle using multiple different sensors, it compensates for each other's weak points, such as weather disturbances (light, ultrasonic waves), changes in the surrounding environment (radio waves, ultrasonic waves), influences of buried metal (magnetism), etc. More accurate and reliable detection is possible. In the case of a building property, if magnetism is used, it may malfunction due to the influence of surrounding structures (metals), so sensors such as light, radio waves, and ultrasonic waves may be used.

なお、図1(b)では、2つの車両検出ユニット3−1,3−2を例示しているが、少なくとも一つの車両検出ユニットが設けられていれば良く、必要に応じて3つ以上の車両検出ユニットを設けても構わない。よって、例えば一つの車両検出ユニット3−1を選択して設けた場合には、一つの取付部7−2が空いた状態になる。3つ以上の車両検出ユニットを設ける場合には、取付部を増やせば良い。本体1aを汎用化するために、取付部を多めに設けておいても良いが、コストや必要性を考慮すると、車両検出ユニットは2〜3個あれば良い。   In addition, in FIG.1 (b), although the two vehicle detection units 3-1 and 3-2 are illustrated, it is sufficient that at least one vehicle detection unit is provided, and three or more vehicle detection units are provided as necessary. A vehicle detection unit may be provided. Therefore, for example, when one vehicle detection unit 3-1 is selected and provided, one attachment portion 7-2 is vacant. When three or more vehicle detection units are provided, the number of attachments may be increased. In order to generalize the main body 1a, a large number of attachment portions may be provided. However, in consideration of cost and necessity, only two or three vehicle detection units may be provided.

図2は、上記図1に示した車輪止め装置1の回路構成例を示すブロック図である。バッテリ6は、各種の電子部品が実装された制御ボード4、及び制御ボード4を介して車両検出ユニット3−1,3−2と無線モジュール5に電源を供給する。制御ボード4は、少なくとも一方の車両検出ユニット3−1,3−2に内蔵されたセンサ3−1a,3−2aにより駐車車両の有無を検出する。そして、無線モジュール5により外部の管理装置(制御盤)などと無線通信を行って、車両の検出情報を管理装置に供給する。管理装置は、例えば満空管理、空き車室案内などを行うものである。また、必要に応じて管理装置からの情報を制御ボード4に供給し、例えば車両検出ユニット3−1,3−2における駐車車両の有無を検出するしきい値を設定、あるいは変更するようになっている。   FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a circuit configuration example of the wheel stopper device 1 shown in FIG. The battery 6 supplies power to the vehicle detection units 3-1 and 3-2 and the wireless module 5 via the control board 4 on which various electronic components are mounted, and the control board 4. The control board 4 detects the presence or absence of a parked vehicle by means of sensors 3-1a and 3-2a built in at least one of the vehicle detection units 3-1 and 3-2. The wireless module 5 wirelessly communicates with an external management device (control panel) or the like to supply vehicle detection information to the management device. The management device performs, for example, fullness management, empty room guidance, and the like. Further, information from the management device is supplied to the control board 4 as necessary, and for example, a threshold value for detecting the presence or absence of a parked vehicle in the vehicle detection units 3-1 and 3-2 is set or changed. ing.

図3は、図1及び図2に示した車輪止め装置を用いた駐車車両の検出動作を説明するためのもので、(a)図は側面図、(b)図はセンサ出力の変化量を示す波形図である。図3(a)に示すように、車輪止め装置1から車室20内に向かって、電波、光、磁気及び超音波などを照射し、車両10で反射して戻って来た電波、光、磁気及び超音波をセンサ3−1a,3−2aの少なくとも一方で検出し、センサ出力のレベルに基づいて制御ボード4で車両の有無を判断する。   3A and 3B are diagrams for explaining the detection operation of the parked vehicle using the wheel stopper shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, wherein FIG. 3A is a side view, and FIG. FIG. As shown in FIG. 3 (a), radio waves, light, magnetism, ultrasonic waves, etc. are irradiated from the wheel stopper device 1 into the passenger compartment 20 and reflected by the vehicle 10 and returned. Magnetic and ultrasonic waves are detected by at least one of the sensors 3-1a and 3-2a, and the presence or absence of the vehicle is determined by the control board 4 based on the level of the sensor output.

具体的には、電波を用いる場合には、車両10の有無による周波数特性の変化にて検出する。光を用いる場合には反射物の有無により検出する。磁気を用いる場合には金属物の有無による周波数特性の変化にて検出する。超音波を用いる場合には、反射音の有無による反射波のレベルにて検出する。駐車車両10がある場合とない場合とでセンサ3−1a,3−2aの検出出力が変化するので、図3(b)に示すように、駐車車両10が有る場合と無い場合の間のレベルに、所定のしきい値ΔVthを設定し、センサ3−1a,3−2aの検出出力の変化量が所定のしきい値ΔVthより大きいか小さいかを検出することで駐車車両10の有無を判定する。このしきい値ΔVthは、切り返しなどで車両10が一時的に車室に進入した場合には検出せず、駐車のために入庫した場合に検出するように、受信強度の変化量とその継続時間を設定すると良い。   Specifically, when radio waves are used, detection is performed by a change in frequency characteristics depending on the presence or absence of the vehicle 10. When light is used, detection is performed based on the presence or absence of a reflecting object. When using magnetism, it is detected by a change in frequency characteristics depending on the presence or absence of a metal object. When ultrasonic waves are used, detection is performed at the level of the reflected wave depending on the presence or absence of reflected sound. Since the detection outputs of the sensors 3-1a and 3-2a change depending on whether or not the parked vehicle 10 is present, the level between when the parked vehicle 10 is present and when it is absent, as shown in FIG. Then, a predetermined threshold value ΔVth is set, and the presence or absence of the parked vehicle 10 is determined by detecting whether the change amount of the detection output of the sensors 3-1a and 3-2a is larger or smaller than the predetermined threshold value ΔVth. To do. This threshold value ΔVth is not detected when the vehicle 10 temporarily enters the passenger compartment due to turnover or the like, but is detected when the vehicle 10 enters for parking, and the amount of change in the received intensity and its duration time. It is good to set.

図4は、上記図1及び図2に示した車輪止め装置1を用いた駐車場システムの概略構成図である。駐車場における各々の車室(駐車区画)20−1,20−2,20−3,…には、車輪止め装置1−1,1−2,1−3,…が設けられており、これら車輪止め装置1−1,1−2,1−3,…による車室毎の駐車車両の有無の検出結果が、無線モジュールにより上位装置である管理装置(制御盤)30に供給される。管理装置30は、上記検出結果に基づき案内表示板40の満空灯などを点灯させて利用者に空き車室案内を行う。   FIG. 4 is a schematic configuration diagram of a parking lot system using the wheel stopper device 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Each of the vehicle compartments (parking sections) 20-1, 20-2, 20-3,... In the parking lot is provided with wheel stoppers 1-1, 1-2, 1-3,. The detection result of the presence or absence of the parked vehicle for every vehicle compartment by the wheel stoppers 1-1, 1-2, 1-3,... Is supplied to the management device (control panel) 30 which is a host device by the wireless module. Based on the detection result, the management device 30 turns on a full lamp or the like on the guidance display board 40 to guide the user to an empty room.

車輪止め装置1−1,1−2,1−3,…による駐車車両の有無の検出結果は、無線で定期的に管理装置30に送信する。また、変化を検出した場合には、管理装置30に無線で送信するようになっている。そして、センサ3−1a,3−2aの一方が駐車車両を検出したときに、管理装置30に無線で報知する。あるいは、複数のセンサ3−1a,3−2aで駐車車両が検出されたときに報知するようにしても良い。このように、車輪止め装置1−1,1−2,1−3,…で各々の車室20−1,20−2,20−3,…内を定期的にセンシングすることで、駐車車両10を検出することができる。   The detection result of the presence or absence of the parked vehicle by the wheel stoppers 1-1, 1-2, 1-3,... Is periodically transmitted to the management device 30 by radio. Further, when a change is detected, the change is transmitted to the management device 30 wirelessly. Then, when one of the sensors 3-1a and 3-2a detects a parked vehicle, it notifies the management device 30 wirelessly. Or you may make it alert | report when a parked vehicle is detected by the some sensors 3-1a and 3-2a. In this way, by periodically sensing the interior of each of the passenger compartments 20-1, 20-2, 20-3,... With the wheel stoppers 1-1, 1-2, 1-3,. 10 can be detected.

上記のような構成によれば、車輪止め装置1と一体化した車両検出ユニット3−1,3−2(センサ3−1a,3−2a)を用いて駐車車両10を検出するので、センサ類を高い位置に設置するために支柱を立てたり、センサ類を地中に埋設したりする必要もないので、施工工事の簡単化と工期の短期化が図れる。しかも、アンカーボルトで車室の路面に設置するだけで良いので、施工や改修の工事も容易にでき、建物物件を含む様々な形式の駐車場にも容易に設置できる。これによって、駐車場システムのコストダウンを図れる。   According to the above configuration, the parked vehicle 10 is detected using the vehicle detection units 3-1 and 3-2 (sensors 3-1 a and 3-2 a) integrated with the wheel stopper device 1. There is no need to stand up the column to install the sensor at a high position or embed the sensors in the ground, so the construction work can be simplified and the construction period can be shortened. Moreover, since it is only necessary to install it on the road surface of the passenger compartment with anchor bolts, construction and renovation work can be easily performed, and it can be easily installed in various types of parking lots including building properties. As a result, the cost of the parking system can be reduced.

なお、上記第1の実施形態では、車輪止め装置1の本体1a材質が、SPCCの場合を例に取って説明したが、樹脂など他の材質であっても良い。樹脂を用いる場合には、モールド成形などで形成でき、センサ窓も必ずしも必要ない。また、本体1aが四角柱状の場合を例に取って説明したが、車輪止めとして機能し、且つ設置し易ければ他のいかなる形状でも構わない。更に、センサ窓1bに、ポリカーボネート板(あるいはアクリル板)2が装着されている場合について説明したが、センサ窓1bは必須の構成ではなく、センサに電波を用いる場合には不要である。加えて、車輪止め装置1をアンカーボルトで設置する場合を例に取って説明したが、接着剤など他の方法で設置しても構わない。   In the first embodiment, the main body 1a of the wheel stopper 1 has been described by taking the case of SPCC as an example, but other materials such as resin may be used. When resin is used, it can be formed by molding or the like, and the sensor window is not necessarily required. Further, the case where the main body 1a has a quadrangular prism shape has been described as an example, but any other shape may be used as long as it functions as a wheel stopper and can be easily installed. Furthermore, although the case where the polycarbonate plate (or acrylic plate) 2 is attached to the sensor window 1b has been described, the sensor window 1b is not an essential configuration and is not necessary when radio waves are used for the sensor. In addition, although the case where the wheel stopper device 1 is installed with an anchor bolt has been described as an example, it may be installed by other methods such as an adhesive.

<変形例1>
上述した第1の実施形態では、無線を用いて駐車車両の有無の情報を管理装置30に送るようにしたが、無線モジュール5は設けずに有線で送信するようにしても良い。この場合には、図5(a),(b)及び図6に示すように、車輪止め装置1の例えば本体1aの一方の側面に露出配管8を設け、この露出配管8内に各種の配線を挿通し、管理装置30と電気的に接続する。また、バッテリ6は設けても設けなくても構わないが、本例ではバッテリ6を設けずに露出配管8を介して外部から電源を供給する。更に、本体1a内に予め取付部の数に余裕を持って設けておくことで、様々な構成や変形が可能となる。
<Modification 1>
In the first embodiment described above, information on the presence / absence of a parked vehicle is transmitted to the management device 30 using radio, but the wireless module 5 may be transmitted without being provided. In this case, as shown in FIGS. 5A, 5 </ b> B, and 6, the exposed pipe 8 is provided on one side surface of the main body 1 a of the wheel stopper 1, and various wirings are provided in the exposed pipe 8. And is electrically connected to the management device 30. The battery 6 may or may not be provided, but in this example, the battery 6 is not provided and power is supplied from the outside via the exposed pipe 8. Furthermore, by providing the main body 1a with a sufficient number of attachment portions in advance, various configurations and modifications are possible.

<変形例2>
更に、上述した第1の実施形態では、車室に1台の車輪止め装置を設ける場合について説明したが、必要に応じて複数個設けても良いのはもちろんである。この際、複数の車輪止め装置1で異なるセンサ3−1a,3−2aにより駐車車両を検出するようにしても良く、センサ3−1a,3−2aを内蔵しない車輪止め装置と内蔵した車輪止め装置を組み合わせて用いることもできる。複数の車輪止め装置を異なる位置に設けて駐車車両を検出するようにすれば、駐車車両をより正確に検出することが可能となる。
<Modification 2>
Furthermore, in the above-described first embodiment, the case where one wheel stopper is provided in the passenger compartment has been described, but it is needless to say that a plurality of wheel stoppers may be provided as necessary. At this time, the parked vehicle may be detected by different sensors 3-1a, 3-2a in the plurality of wheel stoppers 1, and a wheel stopper that does not incorporate the sensors 3-1a, 3-2a and a wheel stopper that is incorporated. A combination of devices can also be used. If a plurality of wheel stoppers are provided at different positions to detect a parked vehicle, the parked vehicle can be detected more accurately.

[第2の実施形態]
図7は、本発明の第2の実施形態に係る車輪止め装置について説明するための概略図である。米国では、TPMS(Tire Pressure Monitoring System)の搭載が法律により義務づけられている。TPMSが搭載された車両では、車載コンピュータとTPMSとの間で無線により通信が行われ、タイヤの空気圧をモニタするようになっている。本第2の実施形態は、このTPMSを利用し、車室内にてタイヤ空気圧情報を受信した場合に、駐車車両が存在すると判断するものである。
[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 7 is a schematic view for explaining a wheel stopper according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the US, TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) is required by law. In a vehicle equipped with a TPMS, communication is performed wirelessly between the in-vehicle computer and the TPMS, and the tire pressure is monitored. The second embodiment uses this TPMS and determines that a parked vehicle is present when tire pressure information is received in the passenger compartment.

すなわち、車輪止め装置1内に車両検出ユニット3(3−1,3−2の少なくとも一方)に加えて、TPMSセンサ50a〜50dの起動信号(TPMS読み取り信号)を発信する送信機60aと、TPMS送信機51a〜51dからのデータを受信する受信機60bが内蔵されている。送信機60aと受信機60bは、TPMSを利用して車両の有無を検出する車両検出部として働くものである。   That is, in addition to the vehicle detection unit 3 (at least one of 3-1 and 3-2) in the wheel stopper 1, a transmitter 60a that transmits a start signal (TPMS reading signal) of the TPMS sensors 50a to 50d, and TPMS A receiver 60b that receives data from the transmitters 51a to 51d is incorporated. The transmitter 60a and the receiver 60b function as a vehicle detection unit that detects the presence or absence of a vehicle using TPMS.

図7に示すように、車輪止め装置1に内蔵した送信機60aから、一定周期でTPMSセンサ50a〜50dの起動信号(例えば125kHz)を発信する。車両10が車室20内に入庫あるいは接近していると、この起動信号でTPMSが作動し、TPMS送信機51a〜51dからID番号、温度、空気圧、周波数及び作動状況(LEARN、STORAGE等)などのTPMSデータが送信される。   As shown in FIG. 7, a start signal (for example, 125 kHz) of the TPMS sensors 50 a to 50 d is transmitted from the transmitter 60 a built in the wheel stopper device 1 at a constant cycle. When the vehicle 10 enters or approaches the passenger compartment 20, the TPMS is activated by this activation signal, and the ID number, temperature, air pressure, frequency and operating status (such as LEARN, STORE, etc.) from the TPMS transmitters 51a to 51d. TPMS data is transmitted.

従って、図8に示すように、駐車車両無しの状態では、一定周期でTPMSセンサ50a〜50dの起動信号70a,70b,70cが発信されるだけであるのに対し、駐車車両有りの場合には、起動信号70aに応答してTPMSデータ80a、起動信号70bに応答してTPMSデータ80bがそれぞれ出力される。これらのTPMSデータを受信機60bで受信したときに駐車車両10有り(在車)と判断する。この際、近隣の車室20に駐車している車両10のTPMSとの混信を防ぐために、時分割で起動信号を発信すると良い。   Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, in the state where there is no parked vehicle, the activation signals 70a, 70b, 70c of the TPMS sensors 50a to 50d are only transmitted at a fixed period, whereas in the case where there is a parked vehicle, The TPMS data 80a is output in response to the activation signal 70a, and the TPMS data 80b is output in response to the activation signal 70b. When these TPMS data are received by the receiver 60b, it is determined that the parked vehicle 10 is present (present). At this time, in order to prevent interference with the TPMS of the vehicle 10 parked in the neighboring vehicle compartment 20, it is preferable to transmit an activation signal in a time division manner.

上述したように、TPMSセンサ50a〜50dで検出したタイヤ圧力をモニタする電波を用いて駐車車両10を検出することで、物体を検出するセンサだけでは車両と判断することが困難な状況であっても駐車車両10を検出できる。TPMSが義務化されると、全車両について検出可能となる。現時点では一部の車両しか搭載されていないので、TPMSが義務化され、全ての駐車車両に搭載されるまでは他のセンサと併用することになる。   As described above, by detecting the parked vehicle 10 using radio waves that monitor the tire pressure detected by the TPMS sensors 50a to 50d, it is difficult to determine that the vehicle is a vehicle by using only a sensor that detects an object. Can also detect the parked vehicle 10. When TPMS is required, all vehicles can be detected. Since only some of the vehicles are currently installed, TPMS is mandatory and will be used in combination with other sensors until installed in all parked vehicles.

<変形例3>
図9(a),(b)はそれぞれ、TPMSと他のセンサと併用して車両10の有無を検出する場合について説明するための平面図である。まず、図9(a)に示すように、車輪止め装置1に内蔵した車両検出ユニット3から電波、光、磁気及び超音波などを車室20内に照射して車両10を検出する。図9(b)に示すように、車室20内に車両10が入庫すると、車両検出ユニット3で車両10が検出され、車輪止め装置1に内蔵した送信機60aから、TPMSセンサ50a〜50dへ起動信号(例えば125kHz)が発信される。これによって、TPMS送信機51a〜51dから送信されるID番号、温度、空気圧、周波数及び作動状況(LEARN、STORAGE等)などのうち少なくともいずれか1つを受信機60bで受信したときに駐車車両10有りと判断する。
<Modification 3>
FIGS. 9A and 9B are plan views for explaining the case where the presence or absence of the vehicle 10 is detected in combination with TPMS and other sensors. First, as shown in FIG. 9A, the vehicle 10 is detected by irradiating the vehicle interior 20 with radio waves, light, magnetism, ultrasonic waves and the like from the vehicle detection unit 3 built in the wheel stopper device 1. As shown in FIG. 9B, when the vehicle 10 enters the passenger compartment 20, the vehicle 10 is detected by the vehicle detection unit 3, and the transmitter 60a built in the wheel stopper 1 is connected to the TPMS sensors 50a to 50d. An activation signal (for example, 125 kHz) is transmitted. Accordingly, when the receiver 60b receives at least one of the ID number, the temperature, the air pressure, the frequency, and the operating status (such as LEARN and STORAGE) transmitted from the TPMS transmitters 51a to 51d, the parked vehicle 10 Judge that there is.

上記のように、TPMSと他のセンサと併用して車両の有無を検出することで、より確実な検出が可能となり、TPMSデータの中のID番号を用いれば、車両の特定も可能であり、管理装置30によりきめ細かな制御を行うこともできる。   As described above, by detecting the presence or absence of the vehicle in combination with TPMS and other sensors, more reliable detection is possible, and if the ID number in the TPMS data is used, the vehicle can also be identified. Fine control can also be performed by the management device 30.

以上説明したように、本発明によれば、設置工事が容易であり、車輪止め装置1をアンカーボルトなどで車室の路面に固定するだけで良い。バッテリ6と無線モジュール5を内蔵すれば、電源や配線工事も不要になり、施工や改修の工事も短期化且つ低コスト化できる。しかも、路面に段差などが形成されないので、駐車する際に運転者の入庫操作の障害になることもない。   As described above, according to the present invention, the installation work is easy, and it is only necessary to fix the wheel stopper device 1 to the road surface of the passenger compartment with an anchor bolt or the like. If the battery 6 and the wireless module 5 are built in, power supply and wiring work become unnecessary, and construction and repair work can be shortened and cost-reduced. In addition, since no steps are formed on the road surface, there is no obstacle to the driver's warehousing operation when parking.
