The PU 11 has a control unit 11-1 and a calculation unit 11-2.
3, a card reader / writer 14, a display unit 15, and a printer 16 are connected. A key input unit 13 is a key input device for inputting various data and commands. Various keys for designating a method of paying a fee, such as a stopover key AK, a split key BK, A money running key CK is provided. Here, when the passenger pays the split bill, the number of customers is set, and then the split bill key BK is operated. Also, when paying a part of the fare when the passenger gets off the vehicle, the passenger enters the payment amount and then operates the halfway stop key AK.
In addition, when paying a split fee when a passenger gets off on the way, the split key BK is operated, the number of customers is set, and then the stop key AK is operated. Further, when the customer requests in advance that the vehicle should run for the amount of payment, the amount is set, and the amount travel key CK is operated. In addition, at the time of running the money, the release key DK is operated to cancel the payment method, and the approval key EK is used to approve the payment method.
Operate. In addition, a function key FK and a numerical key GK are provided on the keyboard. Then
The data input from the key input unit 13 is taken into the CPU 11 and subjected to input processing, and then displayed and output from the display unit 15. Further, the CPU 11 fetches the toll data from the taxi meter 17 linked with the on-board terminal device,
Based on the fee data and the numerical data (number of customers and amount data) input from the key input unit 13, a type of arithmetic processing corresponding to a pre-specified fee payment method is executed, and the calculation result is displayed on the display unit 15. Display output. Also, CP
U11 converts the fee data from the taxi meter 17 into RA
It is stored in the charge total memory 18-1 in M18. Further, the CPU 11 executes a type of arithmetic processing according to whether the fee payment is cash or a prepaid card. The card reader / writer 14 has a CPU
Card data is read from the prepaid card in response to a read command from the CPU 11, and data is written to the prepaid card in response to a write command from the CPU 11. The display unit 15 displays and outputs charge data and various message data, and the printer 16 issues a receipt when registration of one transaction is completed. The taxi meter 17 obtains toll data according to the running time, the running distance, and the like.
Reference numeral 8 denotes a RAM card having a total charge memory 18-1 and the like, which is detachable from the terminal device main body. Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. First, when the passenger pays the split bill,
After entering the number of customers, the split billing key BK is operated. Then, the CPU 11 executes an operation according to the flowchart of FIG. First, toll data is fetched from the taxi meter 17 (step A1). Then, the number of persons is divided from the meter fee to obtain a fee per person (step A2), and the split fee is displayed on the display unit 15 (step A3). Next, the process proceeds to step A4, where it is checked whether payment is by card or cash. Here, in the case of cash payment, when the payment amount for one person is input from the key input unit 13 (step A5), the input amount is compared with the fee for one person (step A6). If detected, error processing (step A7) is performed. If they match, the process proceeds to step A8, in which the fee is reduced by the input amount and the number of customers is reduced by "1". As a result, it is checked whether the number of customers is "0", that is, whether or not payment has been received from all the passengers (step A9), and the process returns to step A4 until the number of customers becomes "0". Here, when the payment by the prepaid card is received, the process proceeds to step A10, in which a read command is given to the card reader / writer 14, whereby the amount data read from the prepaid card is fetched. Then, the charge for one person is subtracted from the amount of the card (step A11), and it is checked whether the amount of the subtraction remains on the card (step A12). If there is no remaining amount, an error process is performed (step A13). If it remains, the process proceeds to step A8, in which the meter fee is subtracted by the input amount, and the number of customers is reduced by "1". Hereinafter, the same operation is repeated until the number of customers “0” is detected in step A9. Next, when paying a part of the toll accompanying the passenger's drop-off, the payment amount is set, and then the drop-off key AK is operated. In this case, the amount paid by the stopover can be entered as much as possible within the current fee. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation in this case. First, toll data is fetched from the taxi meter 17 (step B1) and displayed on the display unit 15 (step B2). Then, it is checked whether or not the payment is by card (step B3). In the case of cash payment, the input amount is subtracted from the meter fee (step B4). The display contents are rewritten (step B5). On the other hand, in the case of card payment, a read command is given to the card reader / writer 14, and
Thus, when the amount data read from the prepaid card is taken in (step B6), the payment amount is subtracted from the card amount (step B7), and it is checked whether or not the amount of the subtraction remains on the card (step A8).
If not, error processing is performed (step B
9) If there is, the result of subtracting the payment amount from the card amount is transferred to the taxi meter 17, and the display contents of the taxi meter 17 are rewritten (step B5). When the passenger gets off the train, he / she operates the split-budget key BK, counts the number of customers, and operates the stop-over key AK when paying the fare until then. Then, the CPU 11 executes an operation according to the flowchart of FIG. First, the current fee data is fetched from the taxi meter 17 (step C1), the number of persons is divided from the meter fee to calculate a split fee up to the present time (step C2), and this is displayed on the display unit 15 for output. (Step C3). Then, it is checked whether or not the payment is by card (step C4). In the case of cash payment, when the payment amount is inputted from the key input section 13 (step C5), this input amount is subtracted from the meter fee (step C5). C6), the result is transferred to the taxi meter 17, and the displayed content is rewritten (step C7). On the other hand, in the case of card payment, a read command is given to the card reader / writer 14, and the amount data read from the prepaid card is taken in (step C8). Then, the payment amount is subtracted from the card amount. (Step C9), it is checked whether or not the amount of the subtraction remains on the card (Step C10). If there is no remaining amount, an error process (Step C11) is performed. The taxi fare is subtracted, the result is transferred to the taxi meter 17, and the display content of the taxi meter 17 is rewritten (step C7). Next, when the customer requests in advance that the vehicle should run for the amount of payment, the amount is set and the amount operation key CK is operated. Then, the CPU 11 executes the operation according to the flowchart of FIG. First, it is checked whether or not the payment is a card (step D1).
(Step D6), if the payment is a card, the card amount is fetched before that (step D2), the input amount is subtracted from this card amount (step D3), and the amount of the subtraction is stored in the card. Is checked (step D4), and if not, an error process is performed (step D5).
Proceed to 6 and fetch the toll data from the taxi meter 17. Then, the toll data fetched from the taxi meter 17 is subtracted from the input amount to obtain a remaining amount, a travelable distance based on the remaining amount is obtained (step D7), and this is displayed and output (step D8). Thereafter, the meter fee is compared with the input amount (step D9). If the input amount is larger, the vehicle can still travel, and the process returns to step D6. Display is performed (step D10). In this case, the release key DK is operated to cancel the money running, but the approval key EK is operated to approve the money running. Here, if neither the release key DK nor the approval key EK is operated, NO is determined in steps D11 and D12.
When the release key DK is operated, the process returns to the normal process (step D13). When the vehicle is stopped and the approval key EK is operated, the fee calculation process is performed (step D13). D14). According to the present invention, when a customer desires to travel according to a designated amount, a travelable distance is calculated and displayed for the paid amount. Can be paid according to the request of the customer, and the service to the customer can be improved.
