The following describes an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings.

(1. Description of specially equipped vehicles)
First, a garbage collection vehicle V, which is a specially equipped vehicle used in the response processing system 1 for managing specially equipped vehicles, will be described.

The refuse collection vehicle V shown in FIG. 1 is composed of a base vehicle Vb and a body K for refuse collection work that is mounted on the vehicle body F of the base vehicle Vb after the assembly is completed. The base vehicle Vb is equipped with a vehicle-side control device UV, and the body K is equipped with a body-side control device UK.

As shown in FIG. 2, the vehicle body F of the base vehicle Vb is equipped with an engine E, a battery B, an electric motor M, a power selection and extraction mechanism PS, and a vehicle-side control device UV.

The engine E provides driving force to the wheels W. The electric motor M is connected to the battery B via an inverter 12 and operates on power from the battery B. The power selection take-off mechanism PS can selectively take the power of the engine E or the electric motor M from the wheel drive system D, which is a drive system including the engine E and the electric motor M. The vehicle-side control device UV is mainly composed of a microcomputer, and controls the engine E, the electric motor M, the battery B, and the electromagnetic clutch 11. A starter switch S-SW for starting the engine E is also connected to the vehicle-side control device UV.

In reality, the vehicle control device UV is connected to the engine E, the electric motor M, and the battery B by multiple power lines and/or signal lines, but these are shown in a simplified manner in Figure 2.

The output side of the power take-off device PTO is linked and connected to a hydraulic pump P, which is part of the mounted object K. The power take-off device PTO is also connected to a vehicle-side control device UV, and selectively switches and transmits the output of the transmission 10 (see Figure 1) to either the wheels W side or the hydraulic pump P side according to an operational input to a power take-off switch P-SW, which is also connected to the vehicle-side control device UV. Specifically, when the power take-off switch P-SW is in the off (OFF) state, the output of the transmission 10 is transmitted to the wheels W side and used for driving. In contrast, when the switch P-SW is turned on, the output of the transmission 10 is transmitted to the hydraulic pump P side and used for driving the pump.

The mounted object K has a box-shaped trash storage box 1 with an open rear end as its base body (mounted object main body), and this trash storage box 1 is mounted and fixed on the vehicle body F of the base vehicle Vb as a retrofit. A trash dump box 3 is connected to the rear end of the trash storage box 1. The trash dump box 3 has a trash dump port 3a at its rear end for dumping trash into the trash storage box 1. An opening/closing door 3t opens and closes the trash dump port 3a.

A garbage loading device 2 serving as a work machine is provided inside the garbage dump box 3. When the garbage dump box 3 is in the loading position, the garbage loading device 2 forcibly loads the garbage dumped inside the garbage dump box 3 into the garbage storage box 1.

The structure of the garbage loading device 2 is a conventionally known type known as a compression plate type, and includes a lifting body 4, a second cylinder A2, a compression plate 5, and a third cylinder A3. The lifting body 4 is supported on both the left and right side walls of the garbage input box 3 so that it can be raised and lowered, at a position facing the rear end opening 1a of the garbage storage box 1. The second cylinder A2 forcibly raises and lowers the lifting body 4. The compression plate 5 extends across the entire width of the garbage input box 3 and is supported by the second cylinder A2 for raising and lowering the lifting body, and is journaled at the bottom of the lifting body 4 so that it can rotate back and forth. The third cylinder A3 forcibly rotates the compression plate 5.

A rear operation panel CR is fixed and supported on the outer surface around the garbage inlet 3a of the garbage bin 3 shown in FIG. 1. The rear operation panel CR is provided with operation switches CR-SW1-3, a first power source selection switch M-SW1, and notification lamps L1-L5. The operation switches CR-SW1-3 select the operating mode of the garbage loading device 2. In particular, the operation switch CR-SW3 is a switch that issues an emergency stop command in the event of a dangerous situation. The first power source selection switch M-SW1 outputs a motor selection signal when turned on. This switches the hydraulic pump P from an engine drive state driven by the engine E to a motor drive state driven by the electric motor M.

As shown in FIG. 1, a cabin control device UF having an operation panel CF is provided in the driver's cab of the base vehicle Vb. As shown in FIG. 2, the cabin control device UF has a microcomputer 61, a short-range wireless communication unit 63, an antenna 65, and an operation panel CF.

Operation switches CF-SW1 to 3, a second power source selection switch M-SW2, and notification lamps L1 to L5 are provided on the operation panel CF. Like the operation switches CR-SW1 to 3, the operation switches CF-SW1 to 3 select and operate the operation mode of the garbage loading device 2 and the garbage discharge device 7. Like the first power source selection switch M-SW2, the second power source selection switch M-SW2 outputs a motor selection signal when turned on.

The hydraulic pump P and the multi-valve MV are provided with pressure sensors (not shown). The detection values of these pressure sensors are given to the equipment side control device UK. The equipment side control device UK is connected to not only the pressure sensor but also various other sensors, and if there is an error based on the detection signals from these sensors, it detects this, associates it with the integrated number of times, generates related data, and transmits it to the user portable device 160 via the in-cabin control device UF. This will be described in more detail later.

As shown in Figure 1, a camera 53 is provided on the top of the trash bin 3. Images from the camera 53 are analyzed by an image processor 51 provided in the control unit box UKB. The image processor 51 is connected to the equipment control device UK, and if the image analysis determines that a dangerous condition exists, it outputs an emergency stop signal to the equipment control device UK. In other words, the state is the same as when the operation switch CR-SW3 is pressed.

In this embodiment, a refuse collection vehicle is used as an example of a specially equipped vehicle, but the vehicle is not limited to a refuse collection vehicle.

2. Overall Overview of the Special Vehicle Management Response Processing System 1 As shown in Fig. 3, the special vehicle management response processing system 1 is a system that monitors the operating status of a control target device 210 from a special vehicle vehicle side control device 201 that controls a control target device mounted on a special vehicle, and includes a special vehicle management response processing server 100, a user portable device 160, a user side administrator terminal device 120, and a special vehicle 180a.

The special vehicle vehicle side control device 201 of the special vehicle 180a has a short-distance wireless transmission/reception means 203, an operating operation data storage means 205, a special vehicle specific data storage means 209, a control means 207, and an abnormality detection means 208. The short-distance wireless transmission/reception means 203 connects to the short-distance wireless transmission/reception means 164 of the special vehicle vehicle side control device 201 by short-distance wireless communication. The operating operation data storage means 205 stores the operating operation data of the control target device 210. The special vehicle specific data storage means 209 stores the identifier of the special vehicle. The abnormality detection means 208 is a means for detecting an abnormality in the control target device 210. The control means 207 manages the operation data stored in the operating operation data storage means 205 when it is transmitted by the short-distance wireless transmission/reception means 203.

The "abnormality detection means 208" includes not only the processing of the equipment side control device UK that detects based on various sensors and the numerical values from those sensors, but also the processing that the equipment side control device UK judges from the interrelationships of multiple devices without sensor detection (for example, a pressure regulator may be provided in the multi-valve MV, and the setting value of the pressure regulator (pressure adjustment device) that regulates the supply hydraulic pressure to a predetermined setting value may be used as the pressure value during diagnosis to detect an abnormal state).

The user portable device 160 has a short-range wireless transmission/reception means 164, an operation data management means 165, and a response processing execution means 167.

The response processing execution means 167 wirelessly connects the short-range wireless transmission/reception means 164 to the special purpose vehicle vehicle control device 201, and when it receives an abnormal condition notification detected by the special purpose vehicle vehicle control device, it transmits this to the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100, and when it receives response processing data corresponding to the abnormal condition from the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100, it executes the response processing.

The operation data management means 165 wirelessly connects the short-range wireless transmission/reception means 164 to the special vehicle vehicle-side control device 201 to acquire operation data of the mounted equipment, and transmits the acquired operation data to the special vehicle management response processing server 100 based on the determined transmission conditions.

The special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100 includes an abnormal state classification data storage means 103,
It comprises a response processing data storage means 105 , an operation data storage means 107 , and a control means 109 .

The abnormal condition classification data storage means 103 stores classification data for determining which abnormal condition classification category the abnormal condition notification belongs to.

The response processing data storage means 105 stores response processing data corresponding to the abnormal state classification category. The operation operation data storage means 107 stores the operation operation data received from the user portable device 160. These processes are performed by the control means 105.

3. Hardware Configuration (3.1 Hardware Configuration of Special Vehicle Management Response Processing Server 100)
The hardware configuration of the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100 using a CPU will be described with reference to FIG.

The special vehicle management response processing server 100 includes a CPU 23, memory 27, a hard disk 26, a monitor 30, an optical drive 25, an input device 28, a communication board 31, and a bus line 29. The CPU 23 controls each part via the bus line 29 according to each program stored in the hard disk 26.

The hard disk 26 has an operating system program 26o (hereinafter abbreviated as OS), a main program 26m, a user-specific vehicle data storage unit 26c, an abnormal condition classification data storage unit 26d, and a response processing data storage unit 26S.

The data structure of user-specific vehicle data 26c is shown in Figure 5A. User-specific vehicle data 26c stores the serial number and model data of specially equipped vehicles managed by the user in association with each user ID.

The data structure of the operation data stored in the special vehicle operation data storage unit 26d is shown in FIG. 5B. The operation data stores the time, the accumulated number of loadings, the accumulated number of TG ascents, the PTO operation time, and the position data in association with the serial number. Such operation data is provided via the user portable device 160.

The data structure of the abnormal condition classification data stored in the abnormal condition classification data storage unit 26d is shown in Figure 5C. The abnormal condition classification data is classified into Error 1 and Error 2. In this embodiment, Error 1 is classified as a minor error that allows work to continue, while Error 2 is classified as a severe error that makes work impossible. The former are, for example, failures of various sensors, motor overheating, and diode overheating. The latter are, for example, short circuits in solenoid valves and welding of contacts in potential circuits.

The data structure of the response processing data stored in the response processing data storage unit 26S is shown in FIG. 6A. The response processing data stores response processing according to error classification. In this embodiment, error 1 is "display manual" and error 2 is "display maintenance company contact information", but the present invention is not limited to this.

The data structure of the response processing data stored in the response processing data storage unit 26S is shown in Figures 6A to 6C. Figure 6A shows response processing data by error category. Figure 6B is a correspondence table between special vehicle serial numbers and manual file names used when displaying an instruction manual as response processing data. Figure 6C shows corresponding data for registered maintenance factories by user ID when displaying a list of maintenance companies as response processing data.

In this embodiment, Windows 10 (registered trademark or trademark) is used as the operating system program (OS) 26o, but this is not limited to this.

The above programs are read from the CD-ROM 25a on which they are stored via the optical drive 25 and installed on the hard disk 26. The programs may be installed on the hard disk from a computer-readable recording medium other than a CD-ROM, such as a flexible disk (FD) or an IC card. Furthermore, they may be downloaded using a communication line.

In this embodiment, the program stored on the CD-ROM is installed on the hard disk 26 from the CD-ROM, thereby causing the computer to indirectly execute the program. However, without being limited to this, the program stored on the CD-ROM may be executed directly from the optical drive 25. Programs that can be executed by a computer include not only those that can be executed directly by simply installing them as is, but also those that need to be converted into another format (for example, by decompressing compressed data), and even those that can be executed in combination with other modules.

(3.2 Hardware Configuration of User Portable Device 160)
The user-carried device 160 will be described with reference to Fig. 7. This figure shows an example of a hardware configuration of the user-carried device 160 configured using a CPU.

The user portable device 160 has the configuration of a typical smartphone, and includes a CPU 123, memory 127, flash memory 126, display unit 130, wireless communication unit 128, operation unit 125, audio input/output unit 124, location information detection unit 122, short-range wireless communication unit 121, and bus line 129. The location information detection unit 122 is a module that detects location information using the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNNS). The short-range wireless communication unit 121 communicates according to the Bluetooth (registered trademark) standard. In this embodiment, iOS (trademark) is used as the OS.

The CPU 123 controls each part via the bus line 129 according to each program stored in the flash memory 126.

The flash memory 126 contains an operating system program 126o (hereafter abbreviated as OS) and a main program 126m.

The processing of main program 126m will be described later.

In this embodiment, Bluetooth (registered trademark) is used as the short-range wireless communication unit, but the present invention is not limited to this.

The operating operation data is sent from the user portable device 160 to the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100 in the following procedure. Based on the main program 126m, the CPU 123 periodically (for example, every 30 seconds) connects to the special purpose vehicle vehicle control device 201 via short-range wireless and issues a command to obtain the operating operation data. When the special purpose vehicle vehicle control device 201 of the special purpose vehicle receives such an acquisition command, it transmits the operating operation data stored in the memory (not shown in FIG. 2) in the mounted object control device UK to the user portable device 160. When the CPU 123 receives such operating operation data, it transmits it to the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100.

(3.3 Hardware Configuration of User Side Administrator Terminal Device 120)
The hardware configuration of the user side administrator terminal device 120 is the same as that shown in FIG.

4. Special vehicle management response processing (4.1 First embodiment)
8, a case will be described in which the user portable device 160 of a user with user ID 1001 receives an error from the abnormal state detection means 208 of a special purpose vehicle with serial number 18R830001M.

The user uses the ID and password to log in to the special vehicle management response processing server 100 using the user ID 1001 on the user portable device 160. This login process is a general login process, so a description will be omitted.

When the login process is performed, the special purpose vehicle vehicle side control device 201 periodically transmits operating operation data to the user portable device 160. When the user portable device 160 receives such data, it transmits it to the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100.

When an error occurs in the specially equipped vehicle vehicle side control device 201, it is transmitted to the user portable device 160. The CPU 123 of the user portable device 160 determines whether or not to receive an error (step S1 in FIG. 8), and when an error is received, transmits the received error to the specially equipped vehicle management response processing server 100 (step S3).

The CPU 23 of the special vehicle management response processing server 100 determines whether an error is received (step S21), and when an error is received, determines whether the error belongs to error 1 or error 2 (step S23). This determination can be made by referring to FIG. 5C.

If the error received in step S23 is Error 1, the corresponding instruction manual based on the serial number is set as the transmission target (step S27). In this case, referring to FIG. 5A, the model number of serial number 18R830001M is "GB87-240". Furthermore, referring to FIG. 6B, it can be seen that the manual file name "GB87-240MM" of the manual for this model is the target file. Therefore, the manual file "GB87-240MM" is set as the transmission target data. The CPU 23 of the specially equipped vehicle management response processing server 100 transmits this transmission target data to the user portable device 160 (step S29).

The CPU 123 of the user portable device 160 determines whether or not to receive the data to be sent (step S5 in FIG. 8), and when the data to be sent is received, displays the result (step S7). This allows the manual file "GB87-240MM" to be displayed on the display unit 130 of the user portable device 160.

On the other hand, if the error received in step S23 is Error 2, the CPU 23 of the special vehicle management response processing server 100 identifies the user ID from the serial number and sends the list of registered maintenance companies (step S25). To identify the user ID from the serial number, refer to the vehicle data by user in FIG. 5A. To identify the maintenance company list from the user ID, refer to the maintenance factory list by user in FIG. 6C. The display of the results of such data (steps S5 and S7) is similar, so a description is omitted.

In this way, when the user portable device 160 receives an error from a special purpose vehicle, the special purpose vehicle management response processing server 100 determines the type of error and responds appropriately. This makes it possible to respond according to the severity of the error by classifying the error type according to the severity of the error.

Examples of errors with low severity (minor errors) include a failure of the sensor that determines the position of the loading device, which can cause an impossible detection (two simultaneous detections) or a failure to detect something that should have been detected. In these cases, a timer can be used to switch the operation instead of the sensor.

Motor overheating and diode overheating can both be detected by temperature sensors. Such overheating occurs when the motor is left running for long periods of time. Also, when the loading platform lifting device is operated slowly, the diode contacts are intermittently turned on and off (PWM control). If this continues, the diode will overheat. Such overheating can be resolved by leaving it for a while to cool down.

Therefore, these procedures should be described in the manual.

On the other hand, in the case of a severe error, the equipment K of the refuse collection vehicle V may not be able to operate if left as is. For example, if the solenoid valve (hydraulic circuit switching valve) is shorted, hydraulic oil cannot be supplied to the cylinder, and the device cannot be operated. Also, if the contacts of the electrical circuit (FET) remain open, electricity cannot flow and the device will not operate, and if they remain closed (welded), unintended operation will continue.

In this way, in the case of a serious error, a quick response is possible by transmitting the maintenance contractor list to the operator of the user portable device 160.

In addition, although the manual for that model is sent, it is also possible to identify the section that describes how to deal with errors, such as a faulty sensor, and communicate this to the operator of the user portable device 160. This can be done, for example, by separately recording the error content, including the sensor, in association with the corresponding page number.

(4.2 Second embodiment)
In the first embodiment, the special-purpose vehicle management response processing server 100 stores data for determining the error type and response processing, and transmits the results to the user portable device 160. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the data in Figs. 5 and 6 may be stored in the flash memory 126 of the user portable device 160, and a response may be made to the error without communicating with the special-purpose vehicle management response processing server 100.

The flowchart of the main program 126m in this case is shown in Figure 9.

When an error occurs in the specially equipped vehicle vehicle-side control device 201, it is transmitted to the user portable device 160. The CPU 123 of the user portable device 160 judges whether or not to receive an error (step S31 in FIG. 9), and when such an error is received, judges whether the error belongs to error 1 or error 2 (step S33). The error type judgment and display process are the same as in the first embodiment, so a description thereof will be omitted (steps S33 to S39).

Note that some of the data in Figures 5 and 6 may be stored in the special vehicle management response processing server 100, and communication may be performed to obtain information when necessary. For example, error 1 may differ depending on the model, so it may be downloaded to the user's portable device 160, but the list of individual maintenance companies may be stored in the special vehicle management response processing server 100 and queried, etc.

5. Other Embodiments
In this embodiment, the operation data may also be transmitted to the special vehicle management response processing server 100, and the importance of the error may be determined in step S23 by referring to the operation data. This is because an error may be related to an operation. Such an error will now be described.

For example, if there is an error in the sensor that detects the position of the loading device, and the operation data shows that the number of cycles of the loading device is increasing, it can be determined that the problem is minor because the device is operating according to a timer, but if the count is not increasing, it can be determined that loading is not possible and the problem is severe.

Refuse collection vehicles are also equipped with a hook that locks the tailgate at the end of the tailgate lowering operation. A sensor detects whether the hook is locked. If the lock sensor does not detect the lock and the loading mode is switched to, an error occurs. When such an error occurs: 1) If the discharge operation (tailgate lowering operation) has been performed within a specified time, it is treated as a minor error and the driver is prompted to press the lowering switch again. If the switch is not pressed again within the specified period, it is determined to be a major error.

In addition, if the above error occurs, 2) if the emission facility is within a specified distance from the GPS, it is considered a minor error and the tailgate lowering switch is prompted to be turned on. If it is not within the specified distance, it is determined to be a major error.

In this way, by using operational data, it is possible to distinguish between major and minor errors.

In this embodiment, a refuse collection truck is used as an example, but the same can be applied to the passage of special vehicles other than refuse collection trucks.

In this embodiment, the response data is displayed on the user portable device 160 to transmit information to the operator of the user portable device 160, but other transmission methods, such as audio explanations, may also be used.

It is also possible to distinguish between errors and processes based on other conditions. For example, Error 1 is an error that occurs during the day (9:00-17:00), in which case it may be "sent to the administrator's PC and notified," whereas Error 2 is an error that occurs at night (17:00-9:00), and it may be "sent only to the administrator's PC (not notified at night)."

In the above embodiment, there are two error types, but there may be three or more.

In addition, while the response process has been described as an example of making some kind of response, one of the response processes may be to "do nothing."
