A charge reception unit 12 is arranged on the right side of the operation input unit 11. The charge reception unit 12 receives the usage charge after the laundry processing operation of the coin laundry 1 is completed.
The charge reception unit 12 can accept payments by credit card, various points, etc. in addition to money as usage charges.
When the user inserts money or the like into the charge reception unit 12, the charge reception unit 12 calculates the input money or the like and outputs the charge payment information to the control unit 30 if the usage charge is satisfied.
As will be described later, excess charges (including weighted excess charges) may occur. In this case, when the input money or the like satisfies the excess charge (including the weighted excess charge), the charge reception unit 12 outputs the excess charge payment information to the control unit 30.
The charge reception unit 12 and the control unit 30 may cooperate to determine the charge payment and the excess charge payment.

Inside the housing 2, a control unit 30 that collectively controls the coin laundry 1 is arranged.
The control unit (user specific information setting unit, excess charge setting unit) 30 is composed of, for example, a microcomputer including a CPU, ROM, RAM, and the like.
The control unit 30 executes a control for performing a laundry processing operation (washing process, drying process) on the laundry put into the drum 4 through a plurality of preset operation steps.

[Laundry processing operation]
Next, the laundry processing operation of the coin laundry 1 will be described. In particular, a method of unlocking the door lock 8 will be described.
FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a control system of the coin laundry 1.
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing a laundry processing operation.

First, the user opens the opening / closing door 7 of the coin laundry 1 and loads the laundry into the drum 4 from the slot 6. Then, the user closes the opening / closing door 7 and latches the opening / closing door 7 with the door lock 8.
Further, the user operates the operation input unit 11 to select a washing course (laundry processing) or the like (Step 1).
Next, the user inputs the usage fee to the charge reception unit 12 (Step 2).
The usage fee is, for example, 1600 yen when the laundry is 10 kg, the washing process is 20 minutes, and the drying process is 40 minutes.

Next, the user operates the operation input unit 11 to input an arbitrary number or alphabet. The control unit 30 sets the input information as a password for unlocking the door lock 8 (Step 3).
Then, the user presses the operation start button of the operation input unit 11.

When the operation start button of the operation input unit 11 is pressed, the control unit 30 confirms the latch of the opening / closing door 7 based on the input signal from the opening / closing sensor 41 of the opening / closing door 7, and the opening / closing door 7 is opened by the door lock 8. Lock (Step 4).
Then, the control unit 30 controls the control valve of the water supply pipe 15, the drain pipe 16, the motor 28, the fan 23, the heating unit 22, and the like while receiving the input signals from the water level sensor 42 and the temperature sensor 18 of the outer cylinder 3. Then, a laundry processing operation (washing process, drying process) is performed (Step 5).

In the washing step of the washing process, the control unit 30 supplies a predetermined amount of water from the water supply pipe 15 to the outer cylinder 3, and the motor 28 of the rotation drive unit 25 rotates the drum 4 in the forward / reverse rotation, the strong / weak rotation, and the like.

When the cleaning step is completed, the control unit 30 starts the rinsing step. In the rinsing step, the control valve of the drain pipe 16 is opened to discharge the water stored in the outer cylinder 3 from the drain pipe 16, and then a predetermined amount of water is supplied from the water supply pipe 15 to the outer cylinder 3 again to be the drum 4. To rotate.
When the rinsing is completed, the control unit 30 opens the control valve of the drain pipe 16 and discharges all the water stored in the outer cylinder 3 from the drain pipe 16.

When the rinsing step is completed, the control unit 30 starts the dehydration step. In the dehydration step, with the control valve of the drain pipe 16 open, the drum 4 is rotated in one direction by the rotation drive unit 25, and the laundry is dehydrated by the centrifugal force thereof.

Next, the control unit 30 shifts from the washing process to the drying process.
First, in the drying step, the control unit 30 drives the fan 23 and the heating unit 22 while rotating the drum 4 in one direction by the rotation drive unit 25.
That is, the control unit 30 drives the fan 23 to supply the air (warm air) heated by the heating unit 22 to the outer body 3 via the hot air supply path 20. The laundry (dehydrated laundry) of the drum 4 is exposed to this warm air to dry it. Then, the control unit 30 drives the fan 23 to discharge the warm air containing the moisture evaporated from the laundry to the outside through the warm air discharge path 21.

In the drying step, the control unit 30 determines the dry state of the laundry based on the input signal from the temperature sensor 18 (Step 6). For example, when the measured value (temperature) of the temperature sensor 18 becomes 60 ° C. or higher, it is determined that the laundry is dry.

When the control unit 30 determines that the laundry is dry, the control unit 30 performs a cooling step. In the cooling step, the heating unit 22 is stopped, and only the fan 23 is driven while the drum 4 is rotated in one direction by the rotation drive unit. Then, the laundry is cooled to a temperature at which the user does not get burned, and the laundry processing operation is completed.
In this way, the control unit 30 determines the completion of the laundry processing operation based on the input signal from the temperature sensor 18.

Next, the control unit 30 starts timing after the laundry processing operation is completed. Then, the control unit 30 determines the elapsed time from the completion of the laundry processing operation by this timekeeping (Step 7).
This timekeeping is performed to calculate an excess charge (including a weighted excess charge) according to the time when the laundry is left unattended. The control unit 30 clocks, for example, in 1-minute units.

Next, the control unit 30 determines whether or not there is an excess charge and adds the charge according to the elapsed time measured by Step 7 (Steps 8 to 10).

When it is determined in Step 7 that the elapsed time from the completion of the laundry processing operation is less than the predetermined time, no excess charge is incurred (Step 8).
The predetermined time is, for example, 10 minutes. If the excess charge is added immediately after the laundry processing operation is completed, the user will be overloaded, so a grace period of about 10 minutes (predetermined time) is set.

Next, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the password matching information has been received from the operation input unit 11 (Step 11). That is, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the password has been input to the operation input unit 11 and whether or not the password input to the operation input unit 11 is the same as the password set in step 3 .

When the control unit 30 determines that the passwords match, the door lock 8 is unlocked (Step 14).
As a result, the user can open the opening / closing door 7 to open the loading port 6 and take out the laundry from the drum 4 (Step 15).

On the other hand, if the control unit 30 cannot receive the password matching information from the operation input unit 11, the control unit 30 returns to step 7 again. That is, if the password is not entered, or if the password entered in the operation input unit 11 is not the same as the password set in step 3 , the process returns to step 7.

When it is determined in Step 7 that the elapsed time from the completion of the laundry processing operation is a predetermined time (for example, 10 minutes), an excess charge is added (Step 9).
When the elapsed time reaches 10 minutes, for example, 100 yen is set as an excess charge.
The control unit 30 displays the excess charge (100 yen) on the display unit and prompts the user to pay the excess charge.
Next, as will be described later, the process proceeds to step 12, and it is determined whether or not the excess charge payment information has been input.

In Step 7, when it is determined that the elapsed time from the completion of the laundry processing operation exceeds a predetermined time (for example, 10 minutes), a weighted excess charge is added (Step 10).
When the elapsed time is 11 minutes or more, for example, 10 yen is added every minute as a weighted excess charge. The weighted excess charge is a charge according to the time (excess time) after the predetermined time has elapsed.
Since this Step 10 is a process performed after the Step 9, the usage fee is set to 110 yen, which is 100 yen plus the weighted excess fee of 10 yen.
The control unit 30 displays an excess charge (110 yen) on the display unit to encourage the user to pay the charge.
Next, as will be described later, the process proceeds to step 12, and it is determined whether or not the excess charge payment information has been input.

After passing through Steps 9 and 10, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the user has paid the excess charge by inserting money or the like into the charge reception unit 12. That is, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the excess charge payment information has been input from the charge reception unit 12 (Step 12).

When it is determined in step 12 that the excess charge has been paid off, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the password matching information has been received from the operation input unit 11 (Step 13). In Step 13, as in Step 11, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the password has been input to the operation input unit 11, and whether the password input to the operation input unit 11 is the same as the password set in step 3 . Judge whether or not.

Then, when the control unit 30 determines that the passwords match, the door lock 8 is unlocked (Step 14).
As a result, the user can open the opening / closing door 7 to open the loading port 6 and take out the laundry from the drum 4 (Step 15).

In this way, the coin laundry 1 sets a password for unlocking the door lock 8, and keeps locking the opening / closing door 7 by the door lock 8 until the user inputs this password.
Therefore, it is possible to prevent a third party from taking out the laundry after the laundry processing operation is completed. Moreover, since it is not necessary to prepare a special device or the like, it is possible to suppress an increase in device cost and operating cost.

Further, the control unit 30 sets an excess charge when the usage charge is not paid even after a predetermined time has elapsed after the laundry processing operation is completed. Then, the opening / closing door 7 is continuously locked by the door lock 8 until the excess charge is paid off.
Therefore, even if the laundry is left in the coin laundry 1 and the operating rate is lowered, the fee income according to the time when the laundry is left in the coin laundry 1 can be obtained. Therefore, it can contribute to the improvement of sales of the coin laundry 1 and the stability of management.

Further, since the control unit 30 adds the weighted excess charge according to the excess time after the lapse of the predetermined time to the excess charge, it is possible to give a mental burden to the user and encourage the user to pay the charge.
