Description

本発明は、乗車管理システム、携帯端末、車載用管理装置、センタ装置、乗車管理方法、乗車管理プログラム及びプログラム記録媒体に関し、特に、鉄道、路線バスなどの乗合車両の無人駅、バス停留所における改札処理(運賃決済)や乗合車両の運行管理に対して好適に適用することができる。   The present invention relates to a boarding management system, a portable terminal, a vehicle-mounted management device, a center device, a boarding management method, a boarding management program, and a program recording medium, and more particularly, to an unmanned station of a shared vehicle such as a railway or a route bus, and a ticket gate at a bus stop. It can be suitably applied to processing (fare settlement) and operation management of shared vehicles.

近年、鉄道業界では、鉄道の駅即ち乗降車場の省力化や無人化を図る一方で、乗客の流動調査をきめ細かく行うことが重要となってきており、各種の試みがなされてきている。   In recent years, in the railway industry, it has become important to conduct a detailed investigation of passenger flow while reducing labor and unmanned railway stations, that is, boarding / exiting stations, and various attempts have been made.

例えば、駅の券売機や改札機を使用しないようにして省力化を図る改札システムとしては、特許文献1に示す特開2002−260032号公報「携帯端末の位置情報システムを利用した鉄道の改札システム、その改札方法、その改札プログラム、及び鉄道ネットワークシステム」のように、乗客が携帯する携帯端末の位置情報システムを利用した手法が提案されている。   For example, as a ticket gate system for saving labor without using a ticket vending machine or a ticket gate at a station, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-260032 shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-260032 “Railway ticket gate system using a position information system of a portable terminal” A method using a position information system of a portable terminal carried by a passenger has been proposed, such as “the ticket gate method, the ticket gate program, and the railway network system”.

特許文献1の技術は、図5に示すように、鉄道の乗客USが携帯する携帯端末100の位置情報S1を、該携帯端末100の無線通信用の位置情報システム120から取得して、その位置情報S1を基に乗客USが利用した鉄道の利用駅を携帯端末100ごとに特定し、その利用駅を基にその乗車駅と降車駅の区間で求まる鉄道運賃を集計して携帯端末100ごとに決済させるプログラムを改札システム130のCPU130cに実行させるものであり、もって、券売機や改札機、精算機を駅に設置しなくても乗客の改札や運賃決済を効果的に行うことを可能にしようとしている。ここに、図5は、従来の改札機システムにおける携帯端末の位置情報システムを利用した概要を示す概要構成図である。   As shown in FIG. 5, the technique of Patent Document 1 acquires position information S1 of a mobile terminal 100 carried by a passenger US of a railway from a position information system 120 for wireless communication of the mobile terminal 100, Based on the information S1, the railway station used by the passenger US is identified for each portable terminal 100, and the railway fares obtained in the section between the boarding station and the getting-off station are counted based on the utilized station, and each portable terminal 100 is counted. Let the CPU 130c of the ticket gate system 130 execute a program for settlement, so that it is possible to effectively perform ticket gates and fare settlement for passengers without installing a ticket vending machine, ticket gate, or settlement machine at the station. It is said. FIG. 5 is a schematic configuration diagram showing an outline using the position information system of the portable terminal in the conventional ticket gate system.

また、特許文献2に示す特開2001−55145号公報「動的環境下における列車乗客数の推定方法及びそれを用いた運転整理支援システム」には、図6に示すように、乗客数の時々刻々の変動を把握するシステムが開示されている。ここに、図6は、従来の改札機システムにおいて乗客変動を把握するためのシステムの模式図である。A駅の改札口220において、乗客200が携帯するICカード210に記録されたデータから乗客200の行き先をはじめとした乗客情報が読み取られる。取得された乗客情報は、その乗車駅から列車運行指令所230に無線又は有線によって伝送される。   Moreover, as shown in FIG. 6, JP 2001-55145 A “Method for estimating the number of train passengers in a dynamic environment and a driving arrangement support system using the same” disclosed in Patent Document 2 A system for grasping momentary fluctuations is disclosed. FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a system for grasping passenger fluctuations in a conventional ticket gate system. Passenger information including the destination of the passenger 200 is read from the data recorded in the IC card 210 carried by the passenger 200 at the ticket gate 220 of the A station. The acquired passenger information is transmitted from the boarding station to the train operation command station 230 by radio or wire.

列車運行指令所230では、受信した乗客情報に含まれている乗車駅及び行き先に基づいて乗客200の乗車区間を推定して、乗車区間に応じた乗客数を示す乗客流動を把握し、列車ダイヤの乱れによる遅延を収束させるために、列車240の停車時間や発車時刻や待避駅の変更などの運転整理案を作成し、列車240側に送信する。つまり、各駅における乗車・降車予定の乗客数を示すデータが、列車運行指令所230に送信され、列車240への乗車人数、列車240からの降車人数の推定に基づいて、列車240に乗車中の乗客数の推定を行い、その乗客流動推定情報は、列車240の旅客流動把握装置250に送信されて、運転整理が実行される。   The train operation command center 230 estimates the boarding section of the passenger 200 based on the boarding station and destination included in the received passenger information, grasps the passenger flow indicating the number of passengers according to the boarding section, In order to converge the delay due to the disturbance of the train, an operation arrangement plan such as a stop time of the train 240, a departure time, and a change of the evacuation station is created and transmitted to the train 240 side. That is, data indicating the number of passengers scheduled to get on and off at each station is transmitted to the train operation command center 230, and based on the estimation of the number of passengers on the train 240 and the number of passengers getting off from the train 240, The number of passengers is estimated, and the passenger flow estimation information is transmitted to the passenger flow grasping device 250 of the train 240, and the driving arrangement is executed.

一方、非接触式ICカードも、定期券やプリペイドカード機能を有する形態とされて、駅改札用として首都圏や関西圏において導入されている。非接触式ICカードは、カードとカードリーダ/ライタとを接触させずに、カードリーダ/ライタにかざすだけでICカードに記録されたデータを読み取ることができるチップが内蔵されたICカードのことであり、コンビニなどにおける電子マネーとしての決済に利用されるのみならず、駅改札口での定期券機能やプリペイドカード機能による運賃の精算についても既に利用されており、今後も各種用途に拡大して利用されようとしている。   On the other hand, the non-contact type IC card is also in a form having a commuter pass or prepaid card function, and has been introduced in the metropolitan area and the Kansai area for use as a station ticket gate. A non-contact IC card is an IC card with a built-in chip that can read data recorded on the IC card by simply holding it over the card reader / writer without bringing the card into contact with the card reader / writer. Yes, it is not only used for payment as electronic money at convenience stores, but it is already used for fare settlement using the commuter pass function and prepaid card function at the station ticket gates. It is going to be used.

例えば、首都圏や関西圏で導入されている、定期券・プリペイドカード機能を有する非接触式ICカードは、乗車駅の改札機のカードリーダ/ライタにかざして入駅し、降車駅の改札機のカードリーダ/ライタにかざして出駅することにより、該非接触式ICカードを携帯した乗客の乗車区間の運賃を精算することができる。このような非接触式ICカードを駅改札用として導入することにより、駅における乗客へのサービス性を向上させると共に、駅員の省力化を図ることができる。また、駅構内売店などでの購入代金の支払いにも利用可能となってきている。以下、多目的の利用が可能となってきているこのような非接触式ICカードを「統合型非接触式ICカード」と総称する。   For example, a contactless IC card with a commuter pass / prepaid card function that is introduced in the Tokyo metropolitan area and the Kansai area enters the station over the card reader / writer of the ticket gate at the boarding station, and the ticket gate at the exit station By leaving the station over the card reader / writer, the fare of the passenger's boarding section carrying the contactless IC card can be settled. By introducing such a non-contact type IC card for use at a station ticket gate, serviceability to passengers at the station can be improved and labor saving of station staff can be achieved. It can also be used to pay for purchases at stations inside the station. Hereinafter, such non-contact type IC cards that can be used for multiple purposes are collectively referred to as “integrated non-contact type IC cards”.

特開2002−260032号公報(第3−4頁、図1)JP 2002-260032 A (page 3-4, FIG. 1) 特開2001−55145号公報(第3頁、図1)JP 2001-55145 A (page 3, FIG. 1)

しかしながら、従来技術として前述した技術には、次のような問題がある。例えば、前記特許文献1に示す技術のような、携帯端末の無線通信用の位置情報に基づいて、乗降車駅の特定を行うシステムでは、首都圏の駅やあるいは路線バスのバス停留所のような乗降車場が近接した地域では、正確な駅やバス停留所を特定することが困難な場合があり、かつ、異なる目的の別会社が運用するシステムに依存しているため、運賃の精算に用いるには適当ではないし、更には、前記特許文献2に示す技術のような、乗客流動把握システムでは、乗客が携帯するICカードに乗車予定駅や降車予定駅を予め入力しておくことが必要であり、定期券のような場合には問題はないが、プリペイドカード機能として利用する場合、乗客の手間を考慮するとその実現性に難点がある。   However, the technique described above as the conventional technique has the following problems. For example, in a system for identifying a boarding / exiting station based on position information for wireless communication of a mobile terminal, such as the technique shown in Patent Document 1, a station in a metropolitan area or a bus stop of a route bus In areas close to boarding stations, it may be difficult to specify the exact station or bus stop, and it depends on a system operated by another company with a different purpose. In addition, in the passenger flow grasping system, such as the technology shown in Patent Document 2, it is necessary to previously input the scheduled boarding station and the scheduled boarding station on the IC card carried by the passenger, In the case of a commuter pass, there is no problem, but when it is used as a prepaid card function, there is a difficulty in its feasibility in consideration of the time and effort of passengers.

一方、前述のような、統合型非接触式ICカードを駅改札用として用いる従来の改札システムでは、すべての駅に統合型非接触式ICカードに対応する改札機を導入することが必要であり、例えば、地方の路線地域への設置や民間鉄道各社の路線区との共通化を図ろうとする場合、改札機の設置コストの面や無人駅などの存在も含め、導入は簡単ではない。   On the other hand, in the conventional ticket gate system using an integrated non-contact IC card for station ticket gates as described above, it is necessary to introduce ticket gates corresponding to the integrated non-contact IC card at all stations. For example, when installing in a local route area or sharing with a private railway company's route area, it is not easy to introduce, including the installation cost of ticket gates and the presence of unmanned stations.

更には、統合型非接触式ICカードに対応する改札機が設置された駅においても、改札機のメンテナンスや管理者の配置などが必要であり、各駅ごとに改札機を設置することは、特に乗客数の少ない駅では、経済的負担が大きくなる。また、路線バスのバス停留所への設置にも同様の問題があり、一般的な乗合車両への統合型非接触式ICカードの全面的な適用が困難である。   Furthermore, even at the station where the ticket gate corresponding to the integrated non-contact IC card is installed, it is necessary to maintain the ticket gate and to arrange an administrator. It is particularly important to install the ticket gate at each station. Economical burdens increase at stations with few passengers. In addition, there is a similar problem in installing a route bus at a bus stop, and it is difficult to apply the integrated non-contact type IC card to a general passenger vehicle.

そこで、本発明の目的は、乗合車両内に統合型非接触式ICカード読み書き用のカードリーダ/ライタを設置し、いわば、移動式改札機として使用することにより、乗客数の少ない駅、無人駅、民間鉄道各社との相互乗り入れ区間やバス停留所などにおいても、乗降客が多い駅に設置されている駅改札機の場合と同様に、運賃の決済を行うことができる改札システムが構築可能な乗客管理システム、携帯端末、車載用管理装置、乗車管理方法、センタ装置、乗車管理プログラム及びプログラム記録媒体を提供することにある。   Therefore, an object of the present invention is to install a card reader / writer for reading and writing an integrated non-contact type IC card in a shared vehicle, so to speak, by using it as a mobile ticket gate, a station with a small number of passengers, an unmanned station Passengers who can construct a ticket gate system that can settle fares in the same way as in the case of station ticket gates installed at stations where there are many passengers, such as in sections where passenger railways enter each other and at bus stops. An object is to provide a management system, a portable terminal, a vehicle-mounted management device, a boarding management method, a center device, a boarding management program, and a program recording medium.

前述の課題を解決するため、本発明による乗車管理システム、携帯端末、車載用管理装置、センタ装置、乗車管理方法、乗車管理プログラム及びプログラム記録媒体は、次のような特徴的な構成を採用している。   In order to solve the above-described problems, a boarding management system, a portable terminal, a vehicle-mounted management device, a center device, a boarding management method, a boarding management program, and a program recording medium according to the present invention employ the following characteristic configurations. ing.

先ず、本発明による乗車管理システムの実施例として、運賃の精算を行う改札システムに適用する場合の一例について図1を用いて説明する。図1は、本発明による乗車管理システムの構成の一例を示す概略構成図であり、一例として、乗合車両として鉄道用の列車を、乗客が該乗合車両に乗降車する乗降車場として鉄道の駅を用いて示している。   First, as an embodiment of the boarding management system according to the present invention, an example in the case of application to a ticket gate system that performs fare settlement will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing an example of a configuration of a boarding management system according to the present invention. As an example, a railway train is used as a passenger vehicle, and a railway station is used as a boarding place where passengers get on and off the passenger vehicle. Used to show.

また、図1は、鉄道路線として、A、B、C駅と、C駅でD駅に向かう本線とE、F駅に向かう支線とに分岐している場合を示している。本線に位置するA、B、C、D駅には、定期券機能・プリペイド入金機能を有する統合型非接触式ICカード10の情報を読取り可能なカードリーダ/ライタ(カードリーダ/ライタ31a、31bとしてA、B駅に例示している)を備えた改札機(改札機30a、30bとしてA、B駅に例示している)が通常の駅設置型の改札機として設置され、それぞれの駅設置型の改札機には、券売機や乗り越し用の精算機を含め駅業務全体の管理処理を司る管理装置(管理装置35a、35bとしてA、B駅に例示している)が接続されている。   Moreover, FIG. 1 has shown the case where it branches into the A, B, C station as a railway line, the main line which goes to D station in C station, and the branch line which goes to E, F station. A, B, C, and D stations located on the main line have card reader / writers (card reader / writers 31a and 31b) that can read information of the integrated contactless IC card 10 having a commuter pass function and a prepaid deposit function. The ticket gates equipped with the A and B stations (illustrated at the A and B stations as the ticket gates 30a and 30b) are installed as normal station-installed ticket gates. A management device (exemplified as the management devices 35a and 35b in the A and B stations) that manages the overall station operation, including a ticket vending machine and a checkout machine for transit, is connected to the type ticket gate.

一方、支線に位置するE、F駅には、通常の改札機は設置されておらず、それぞれの駅近くの線路近傍に、DSRC(Dedicated Short Range Communication:専用狭域通信)方式で乗合車両2内に設置されている車載用管理装置20との間で無線通信が可能な路側機(E、F駅それぞれの駅構内又は近傍の線路の側に路側機40a、40b)が設置されている。   On the other hand, there are no common ticket gates at E and F stations located on the branch lines, and the shared vehicle 2 is located near the railway line near each station by the DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communication) method. Roadside devices (roadside devices 40a and 40b on the side of the railway lanes in the vicinity of the stations of the E and F stations or in the vicinity thereof) that can wirelessly communicate with the in-vehicle management device 20 installed therein are installed.

なお、図示していないが、車載用管理装置20との間で無線通信が可能な路側機は、駅構内又は駅近傍のみならず、走行中の乗合車両2の車載用管理装置20との間で、常時又は適切な間隔でDSRC方式での無線通信(路車間通信)が可能なように、乗合車両2が走行する鉄道線路の側(近傍)に適当な間隔で設置することができる。   Although not shown, the roadside device capable of wireless communication with the in-vehicle management device 20 is not only in the station premises or in the vicinity of the station but also with the in-vehicle management device 20 of the traveling vehicle 2 that is running. Thus, it can be installed at an appropriate interval on the side (near the railroad track) on which the passenger vehicle 2 travels so that wireless communication (road-to-vehicle communication) in the DSRC system is possible at all times or at an appropriate interval.

また、各管理装置35a、35b、・・・及び各路側機40a、40b・・・は通信回線を介して相互に接続されたネットワーク60を形成しており、更に、該ネットワーク60には、乗合車両の運行管理や運賃処理や座席予約処理などの管理業務を行うセンタ装置50が接続されていて、各管理装置35a、35b、・・・及び各路側機40a、40b・・・との間で、情報を送受信することができる。なお、ネットワーク60に接続されるセンタ装置50は、1個のみに限るものではなく、用途や地域に応じて複数個設置されていても良いし、更に、インターネットなどの公衆通信網や放送網などとの接続を行うゲートウェイ機能を有するセンタ装置を設置するようにしても良い。   Moreover, each management apparatus 35a, 35b, ... and each roadside machine 40a, 40b ... form the network 60 mutually connected via the communication line, and also, this network 60 has a crossover. A center device 50 that performs management operations such as vehicle operation management, fare processing, and seat reservation processing is connected to each management device 35a, 35b,... And each roadside device 40a, 40b,. Can send and receive information. The number of center devices 50 connected to the network 60 is not limited to one, and a plurality of center devices 50 may be installed according to the application and region, and further, a public communication network such as the Internet, a broadcast network, etc. You may make it install the center apparatus which has a gateway function which connects with.

なお、図1には、乗客1が、A駅から乗車3して、B駅で降車4する場合と、E駅で降車5する場合とを示している。即ち、乗客1は、定期券としての乗車期間・乗車区間やプリペイドされた入金金額を記録した統合型非接触式ICカード10を携帯して、A駅に設置の改札機30aのカードリーダ/ライタ31aに統合型非接触式ICカード10をかざすことにより、乗車駅としてA駅が統合型非接触式ICカード10に記録された状態で入駅した後、乗合車両2に乗車3し、駅設置の改札機30bを備えたB駅で乗合車両2から降車4した場合と、その先の駅設置の改札機が備えられていないE駅で乗合車両2から降車5した場合との2つのケースについて示している。   FIG. 1 shows a case where a passenger 1 gets 3 from A station and gets off at B station and gets off at E station. That is, the passenger 1 carries the integrated contactless IC card 10 in which the boarding period / boarding section as a commuter pass and the prepaid amount of money to be recorded are carried, and the card reader / writer of the ticket gate 30a installed at the A station. By holding the integrated non-contact IC card 10 over 31a, the station A as a boarding station is entered in the state recorded on the integrated non-contact IC card 10, then boarding the shared vehicle 2 3 and installing the station 2 cases of getting off 4 from the shared vehicle 2 at the B station with the ticket gate 30b and 5 getting off the shared vehicle 2 at the E station where the ticket gate installed at the station ahead is not equipped Show.

ここで、例えばA駅から乗車した乗合車両2がE駅方面へ向かう乗合車両ではなかった場合に、C駅などでE駅方面へ向かう乗合車両2に乗客1が乗り換えるような場合であっても全く同様である。   Here, for example, when the passenger vehicle 2 boarding from the A station is not a passenger vehicle heading toward the E station, the passenger 1 may transfer to the passenger vehicle 2 heading toward the E station at the C station or the like. It is exactly the same.

乗客1がB駅で乗合車両2から降車4した場合は、駅設置の改札機30bを通過する際に、乗客1が携帯する統合型非接触式ICカード10を改札機30bのカードリーダ/ライタ31bにかざすことにより、統合型非接触式ICカード10に記録された乗車駅のA駅から乗車した乗客1がB駅で降車したことを示す乗降車記録としてB駅の管理装置35bに送信されて記録されると共に、統合型非接触式ICカード10に記録された定期券及びプリペイドカード機能のうち、プリペイドカード機能に該当する乗車区間に該当する場合は、乗車したA駅と降車したB駅間の運賃が改札機30bで算出されて、運賃の入金処理がなされ、かつ、現在の入金金額を記録した統合型非接触式ICカード10に精算処理後の残りの金額が記録されるという運賃の決済処理がなされる。   When the passenger 1 gets off the shared vehicle 2 at the station B, when the passenger 1 passes the ticket gate 30b installed at the station, the integrated non-contact type IC card 10 carried by the passenger 1 is used as the card reader / writer of the ticket gate 30b. By passing over 31b, it is transmitted to the management apparatus 35b of the B station as a boarding record indicating that the passenger 1 boarding from the A station of the boarding station recorded on the integrated non-contact IC card 10 has got off at the B station. Of the commuter pass and prepaid card functions recorded on the integrated non-contact IC card 10, if it falls in the boarding section corresponding to the prepaid card function, the boarding station A and the exiting station B When the fare is calculated by the ticket gate 30b, the fare is deposited, and the remaining amount after the settlement is recorded on the integrated contactless IC card 10 in which the current deposit amount is recorded. Cormorant settlement process of the fare is made.

なお、各駅に設置の管理装置35a、35b、・・・に記録された乗降車記録は、その都度あるいは予め定めた周期でセンタ装置50にネットワーク60を介して送信される。   The boarding / alighting records recorded in the management devices 35a, 35b,... Installed at each station are transmitted to the center device 50 via the network 60 each time or at a predetermined cycle.

一方、乗客1がE駅で乗合車両2から降車5する場合は、乗客1が携帯する統合型非接触式ICカード10を乗合車両2内に設置の車載用管理装置20のカードリーダ/ライタ21に近接させることにより、統合型非接触式ICカード10に記録された乗車駅のA駅から乗車した乗客1がE駅で降車したことを示す乗降車記録として車載用管理装置20内に記録されると共に、統合型非接触式ICカード10に記録された定期券及びプリペイドカード機能のうち、プリペイドカード機能に該当する乗車区間に該当する場合は、乗車したA駅と降車したE駅間の運賃が車載用管理装置20で算出されて、運賃の入金処理がなされ、かつ、現在の入金金額を記録した統合型非接触式ICカード10に精算処理後の残りの金額が記録されるという運賃の決済処理がなされる。   On the other hand, when the passenger 1 gets off from the shared vehicle 2 at E station, the card reader / writer 21 of the in-vehicle management device 20 in which the integrated non-contact IC card 10 carried by the passenger 1 is installed in the shared vehicle 2. Is recorded in the in-vehicle management device 20 as an entry / exit record indicating that the passenger 1 who got on from the A station of the boarding station recorded on the integrated non-contact type IC card 10 got off at the E station. In addition, among the commuter pass and prepaid card functions recorded on the integrated non-contact IC card 10, if it falls in the boarding section corresponding to the prepaid card function, the fare between the boarding station A and the exit E station Is calculated by the in-vehicle management device 20, the fare payment process is performed, and the remaining amount after the settlement process is recorded in the integrated contactless IC card 10 in which the current deposit amount is recorded. Settlement process of is made.

なお、車載用管理装置20に記録された乗降車記録は、前述のB駅で降車した場合と同様に、その都度あるいは予め定めた周期で、通信手段22からE駅の駅構内又は近傍又は路線側に設置された路側機40aに送信されて、ネットワーク60を介してセンタ装置50に送信される。   In addition, the boarding / alighting record recorded in the in-vehicle management device 20 is the same as when getting off at the above-mentioned B station, or in each station or at a predetermined cycle from the communication means 22 to the inside of the station premises of E station or in the vicinity or route Is transmitted to the roadside device 40 a installed on the side, and transmitted to the center device 50 via the network 60.

前述の説明では、駅に改札機30aが設置されているA駅から乗合車両2に乗車した場合について説明したが、次に、駅に改札機が設置されていない無人駅など例えばE駅から乗車し、駅に改札機が設置されていない駅、例えば、H駅で降車した場合について、図2を参照して更に説明する。ここに、図2は、本発明による乗車管理システムの動作の一例を説明するために用いる路線図を模式的に示したものであり、改札機が設置されていないE駅から乗合車両(列車)2に乗車し、同じく改札機が設置されていないH駅で降車した場合を示している。ここで、E駅からH駅までの乗車区間は、統合型非接触式ICカード10に記録された定期券及びプリペイドカード機能のうち、定期券適用区間ではなく、プリペイドカード機能に該当する乗車区間に該当しているものとする。   In the above description, the case where the shared vehicle 2 is boarded from the A station where the ticket gate 30a is installed at the station has been described. Next, an unmanned station where the ticket gate is not installed at the station such as E station The case of getting off at a station where no ticket gate is installed at the station, for example, H station, will be further described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 schematically shows a route map used for explaining an example of the operation of the boarding management system according to the present invention. From the E station where no ticket gate is installed, a shared vehicle (train) is shown. The figure shows a case where the user gets on No. 2 and gets off at H station where no ticket gate is installed. Here, the boarding section from the E station to the H station is a boarding section corresponding to the prepaid card function, not the commuter pass application section among the commuter pass and prepaid card functions recorded in the integrated non-contact IC card 10. It is assumed that it corresponds to.

先ず、乗客1が携帯する統合型非接触式ICカード10に定期券情報やプリペイドの入金金額を予め記録しておき、E駅で乗車する際に、乗合車両2の乗車口に設置されている車載用管理装置20のカードリーダ/ライタ21に統合型非接触式ICカード10を近接させる。   First, the commuter pass information and the prepaid deposit amount are recorded in advance on the integrated non-contact IC card 10 carried by the passenger 1 and installed at the entrance of the shared vehicle 2 when boarding at E station. The integrated non-contact IC card 10 is brought close to the card reader / writer 21 of the in-vehicle management device 20.

カードリーダ/ライタ21から読み込まれた統合型非接触式ICカード10の情報は、車載用管理装置20に送られ、車載用管理装置20は、通信手段22を介して、E駅の構内又は近傍に設置されている路側機40aを経由してセンタ装置50と通信を行うことにより、当該統合型非接触式ICカード10が不正に使用されていないか、使用停止の状態にないか、即ち、乗客1が乗車資格を有しているか否かを調べる。乗車資格がないと判定した場合は、その旨がセンタ装置50から返送されてくるので、車載用管理装置20から警告表示を出力し、乗客1にその旨を通知して車内乗車券の購入など不正乗車の適正化をはかる。   The information of the integrated non-contact IC card 10 read from the card reader / writer 21 is sent to the in-vehicle management device 20, and the in-vehicle management device 20 is connected to the premises of E station or in the vicinity thereof via the communication means 22. By communicating with the center device 50 via the roadside machine 40a installed in the vehicle, the integrated non-contact IC card 10 is not used illegally or is not in a suspended state. It is checked whether or not the passenger 1 has a boarding qualification. If it is determined that there is no boarding qualification, a message to that effect is returned from the center device 50, so a warning display is output from the in-vehicle management device 20, and the passenger 1 is notified to that effect and purchase of an in-vehicle ticket, etc. Optimize illegal boarding.

一方、乗車資格があると判定した場合は、その旨がセンタ装置50から返送されてくるので、車載用管理装置20は、その乗客1の乗車駅E駅を記録すると共に、統合型非接触式ICカード10にも乗車駅がE駅であることを記録して、以降、降車駅に至るまでの運賃を更新していく。即ち、車載用管理装置20は、乗合車両2がE駅からの運賃が更新される乗車区間となる駅に到着する都度、順次運賃を更新していく。例えば、図2に示す例の場合、E駅からF駅までの運賃はα円であり、G駅までの料金もF駅までと同様にα円であれば、乗合車両2がF駅に到着した際に、運賃をα円に更新するが、G駅に到着しても運賃は更新されることはない。   On the other hand, if it is determined that there is a boarding qualification, the fact is returned from the center device 50, so that the in-vehicle management device 20 records the boarding station E station of the passenger 1 and also an integrated non-contact type. The IC card 10 also records that the boarding station is E station, and thereafter, the fare to reach the disembarking station is updated. That is, the in-vehicle management device 20 sequentially updates the fare every time the shared vehicle 2 arrives at a station that is a boarding section in which the fare from E station is updated. For example, in the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, if the fare from station E to station F is α yen and the fee to station G is α yen as well as station F, shared vehicle 2 arrives at station F. When it does, the fare is updated to α yen, but the fare is not updated even if it arrives at G station.

次のH駅までの運賃がβ円であれば、車載用管理装置20は、運賃をβ円に更新する。このH駅で、乗客1が降車するために、乗合車両2の降車口に設置されている車載用管理装置20のカードリーダ/ライタ21に統合型非接触式ICカード10をかざすと、カードリーダ/ライタ21から読み込まれた情報が、車載用管理装置20に送られる。車載用管理装置20は、乗車駅E駅から降車駅H駅までの乗車区間を乗降車記録として記録すると共に、その乗車区間の運賃を徴収して入金処理をし、統合型非接触式ICカード10の現在の入金金額から減算する決済処理を行う。車載用管理装置20に記録された乗降車記録は、通信手段22により、H駅の構内又は近傍又は路線の側に設置されている路側機を経由してセンタ装置50に送信される。   If the fare to the next H station is β yen, the in-vehicle management device 20 updates the fare to β yen. At this H station, in order for the passenger 1 to get off, when the integrated non-contact type IC card 10 is held over the card reader / writer 21 of the in-vehicle management device 20 installed at the exit of the passenger vehicle 2, the card reader / Information read from the writer 21 is sent to the in-vehicle management device 20. The in-vehicle management apparatus 20 records the boarding section from the boarding station E station to the boarding station H station as a boarding record, collects the fare of the boarding section and performs a payment process, and an integrated contactless IC card. A settlement process is performed to subtract from the current deposit amount of ten. The boarding / alighting record recorded in the in-vehicle management device 20 is transmitted by the communication means 22 to the center device 50 via a roadside device installed in the vicinity of the H station or in the vicinity thereof or on the route side.

なお、統合型非接触式ICカード10と車載用管理装置20のカードリーダ/ライタ21との情報の読み書き用の通信方式として、後述するようなDSRC(Dedicated Short Range Communication)方式に準拠の車内通信を可能としている場合は、前述のように、乗降車時に車載用管理装置20のカードリーダ/ライタ21に統合型非接触式ICカード10をわざわざ近接させることなく、カードリーダ/ライタ21が乗降車する乗客の統合型非接触式ICカード10の情報を読み書きすることができるので、乗客は統合型非接触式ICカード10を携帯したまま乗降車すればよい。   As a communication method for reading and writing information between the integrated non-contact IC card 10 and the card reader / writer 21 of the in-vehicle management device 20, in-vehicle communication conforming to the DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communication) method as described later. As described above, the card reader / writer 21 can get on and off without getting the integrated non-contact IC card 10 close to the card reader / writer 21 of the in-vehicle management device 20 when getting on and off. Since the information of the integrated non-contact type IC card 10 of the passenger can be read and written, the passenger only needs to get on and off while carrying the integrated non-contact type IC card 10.

図3には、本発明による乗車管理システムの乗車から降車に至るまでの全体のメイン動作の一例を示すフローチャートが示されている。   FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the entire main operation from the boarding to the getting off of the boarding management system according to the present invention.

乗合車両2内に設定されている車載用管理装置20は、通信手段22を起動して、路側機40との間で車外通信即ち路車間通信を行い、ネットワーク60を介してセンタ装置50から統合型非接触式ICカード10を最新の状態に更新している。   The in-vehicle management device 20 set in the shared vehicle 2 activates the communication means 22 to perform vehicle-to-vehicle communication, that is, road-to-vehicle communication with the roadside device 40, and is integrated from the center device 50 via the network 60. The mold non-contact type IC card 10 is updated to the latest state.

車載用管理装置20は、このような最新の情報を常に取得して更新しつつ、駅に停車する都度、乗客の乗車判定をし(ステップS1)、乗車があれば(ステップS1のYES)、乗車した乗客に対する運賃の課金処理を行い(ステップS2)、しかる後、乗客の降車判定をし(ステップS3)、降車があれば(ステップS3のYES)、当該乗客の乗車区間を示す乗降車記録を記録し、その都度あるいは予め定めた周期で路側機40を介してセンタ装置50に送信する(ステップS4)。   The in-vehicle management device 20 always obtains and updates such latest information, and makes a passenger ride determination every time the vehicle stops at the station (step S1). If there is a ride (YES in step S1), A fare billing process is performed for the passenger who has boarded (step S2), and then the passenger is judged to get off (step S3). If there is a car getting off (YES in step S3), a boarding / exiting record indicating the boarding area of the passenger And is transmitted to the center device 50 via the roadside device 40 each time or at a predetermined cycle (step S4).

本発明では以下のような処理を実行することができる。
(1)1回切り乗車のお客には「IC切符」を購入して貰い降車時に回収し、回収されたIC切符は再利用されるようにする。
(2)不正乗車(切符不購入者)の防止として切符不所持者の存在の見分け方は、乗車人数と切符の数を比較し、数が合わない場合に車掌または係員にその人数と車両番号を連絡し次の駅までに検札をするよう指示することで対応する。
(3)乗り越した者に対しては例えば切符番号をアナウンスし、車内で乗り越し精算するよう乗客に促すと共に必要に応じて検札するよう車掌に指示する。
(4)車掌の検札がスムースに行えるよう手持ちのリーダで車掌近隣の人の切符や定期券情報を見ることができるようにする。
これらの不正の察知のためには、ICカードは近接させなくとも良い。
In the present invention, the following processing can be executed.
(1) Purchase an “IC ticket” for passengers who take a one-off ride and collect it at the time of disembarking, so that the collected IC ticket can be reused.
(2) In order to prevent unauthorized boarding (for those who have not purchased a ticket), the number of passengers who do not have a ticket can be identified by comparing the number of passengers with the number of tickets. By instructing them to check the ticket before the next station.
(3) Announcing a ticket number, for example, to the passenger who has overtaken the vehicle, instructing the passenger to get over in the car and check it out, and to check the ticket if necessary.
(4) A ticket reader and commuter pass information of a person in the vicinity of the conductor can be viewed with a reader on hand so that the conductor can check smoothly.
In order to detect these frauds, the IC cards do not have to be close to each other.

図4は、本発明の実施例における不正乗車防止処理手順を示すフローチャートである。   FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an illegal boarding prevention processing procedure in the embodiment of the present invention.

図4を参照すると、乗車の際、IC切符の購入を判断し(ステップS11)、購入されていれば、適正降車であるか否かを判断する(ステップS12)。ここで、適正降車であると判断されれば、回収機による回収の有無を判断し(ステップS13)、回収されれば適正降車として処理する。一方、ステップS12において適正降車でないと判断されたとき、またはステップS13において回収できないと判断されたときには、警告をアナウンスする(ステップS14)。   Referring to FIG. 4, at the time of boarding, it is determined whether or not an IC ticket is purchased (step S11), and if it is purchased, it is determined whether or not it is an appropriate disembarkation (step S12). Here, if it is determined that the vehicle is getting off properly, it is determined whether or not it is collected by the collecting machine (step S13). On the other hand, when it is determined in step S12 that the vehicle is not getting off properly, or when it is determined in step S13 that the vehicle cannot be collected, a warning is announced (step S14).

ステップS11においてIC切符の購入がないとき、またはステップS12において適正降車でないときには、車両の号車番号、切符番号の登録をし(ステップS15)、車内機での処理が可能か否かを判断し(ステップS16)、処理可能であれば、適正降車として処理する。また、ステップS16において、処理できないと判断されれば、車掌による検察を実行して(ステップS17)、適正降車として処理する。   When there is no purchase of an IC ticket in step S11, or when it is not a proper disembarkation in step S12, the vehicle number and ticket number of the vehicle are registered (step S15), and it is determined whether or not the processing in the in-vehicle unit is possible ( Step S16) If it can be processed, it is processed as a proper dismount. Further, if it is determined in step S16 that processing cannot be performed, inspection by a conductor is executed (step S17), and processing is performed as appropriate getting off.
