Description

The present invention relates to a vehicle movement management system that can manage the movement of cargo vehicles such as trucks and passenger vehicles such as buses and taxis more conveniently while ensuring information security.

In a conventional system that includes a terminal device mounted on a vehicle or the like and a traffic monitoring device installed in a base station or the like, various detection thresholds are set in the terminal device, which detects the traffic status based on those detection thresholds, and the traffic monitoring device determines whether or not a notification to the terminal device is necessary based on a predetermined judgment threshold. This allows for a traffic monitoring system that can adapt to various conditions related to traffic and promote safe driving in a detailed manner (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-048447

In the above-mentioned conventional operation monitoring system, the detection threshold of the terminal device and the judgment threshold of the operation monitoring device can be set according to the monitoring application, making it possible to create a vehicle operation monitoring system capable of various operation monitoring.

However, the above-mentioned operation monitoring system monitors based on operation information communicated only between the terminal device installed in the vehicle and the operation monitoring device located at the base station, so it can only monitor the operation status of a limited number of vehicles, such as those owned by the company itself.

In other words, if both parties could share information about the status of their own vehicles as well as those owned by other companies, it would be possible to manage the status of all vehicle owners, including both their own and those of other companies. However, the problem with the above-mentioned operation monitoring system is that it is not possible to do this.

The present invention was developed in consideration of these issues, and aims to provide a vehicle movement management system that enables the movement management of all vehicles, including not only vehicles owned by the company but also vehicles owned by other companies, while ensuring security.

The present invention has been made to solve at least some of the problems described above, and can be realized as the following application examples. Note that reference symbols and supplementary explanations in parentheses in this section indicate correspondence with the embodiments described below to aid in understanding the present invention, and do not in any way limit the present invention.

The current position of the vehicle 3 is acquired by a GPS receiver 21, the speed, mileage and engine speed of the vehicle 3 are acquired by a digital tachograph 22, the temperature inside the vehicle 3 is acquired by a temperature sensor 23, and status information is acquired from a status input device 24.

Note that the status information acquired by the status information acquisition unit 20 does not necessarily include the current position, speed, mileage, engine RPM, interior temperature, or status information about the vehicle 3; it is sufficient to select and acquire status information depending on the type of vehicle 3 being managed.

The user terminal 40 is a device located on the side of the user who uses the vehicle 3, and includes a user terminal storage unit 41, a disclosure request setting unit 42, a user terminal transmission unit 43, a user terminal reception unit 44, and a user terminal control unit 46.

The user terminal storage unit 41 is a unit for storing user identification information, and is specifically an external storage device such as a hard disk. User identification information refers to information that individually identifies multiple users, such as an ID code assigned in advance to a company or other entity that uses the vehicle 3.

The disclosure request setting unit 42 is a unit that sets the identification information (disclosure identification information) of the vehicle 3 for which disclosure of vehicle status information is requested and the time (disclosure request time) for disclosing the vehicle status information of the vehicle 3 identified by the disclosure vehicle identification information.

Specifically, it is composed of input devices such as a keyboard, mouse, or touch panel (not shown), and a display device (not shown) that displays input items and input results.
The user terminal transmitting unit 43 is a transmitter that transmits data to the server 30 via the communication line 5 , and the user terminal receiving unit 44 is a receiver that receives data from the server 30 via the communication line 5 .

The user terminal control unit 46 is a device equipped with a CPU, ROM, RAM, I/O, etc. (not shown), and transmits the disclosed vehicle identification information and disclosure request time set in the disclosure request setting unit 42, along with disclosure user identification information identifying the user who made the disclosure request, to the server 30 via the communication line 5 using the user terminal transmission unit 43.

The server-side storage unit 32 stores vehicle identification information that identifies the vehicle 3, user identification information that identifies the user, and the disclosure permission time, which is the time during which disclosure of the vehicle 3's status information is permitted in response to a request for disclosure of the vehicle 3's status information. Specifically, it is an external storage device such as a hard disk.

Here, the vehicle identification information means information for individually identifying a plurality of vehicles 3, such as an ID code assigned in advance to each vehicle in order to individually identify each of the plurality of vehicles 3.
In addition, the disclosure permission time means the time during which the user of vehicle 3 may disclose to the provider of vehicle 3 the status information of vehicle 3 used by the company or the status information of vehicle 3 that the provider has provided to a third party other than the company.

The server-side transmitter 34 is a transmitter that transmits data to the user-side terminal 40 via the communication line 5.

(Vehicle-side control processing)
Next, a vehicle-side control process executed by the vehicle-side control unit 12 provided in the vehicle-side terminal 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a flowchart showing the flow of the vehicle-side control process. The vehicle-side control process starts when the vehicle-side control unit 12 is powered on and ends when the power is turned off.

As shown in FIG. 2, in S100, the CPU of the vehicle-side control unit 12 acquires vehicle 3 status information from the status information acquisition unit 20 and stores it in RAM, and then in S105, reads vehicle 3 identification information stored in ROM (not shown).

In the following S110, the vehicle identification information read in S105 is added to the vehicle 3 status information acquired in S100, and the vehicle-side transmitter 11 transmits the information to the server 30 via the communication line. After transmission, the process returns to S100, and the vehicle-side control process is repeated.

(Disclosure permission determination process)
Next, the disclosure permission determination process executed by the disclosure permission determination unit 33 of the server 30 arranged on the provider side of the vehicle 3 will be described with reference to Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of the disclosure permission determination process. The disclosure permission determination process starts when the server 30 is powered on and ends when the server 30 is powered off.

As shown in FIG. 3, in S200, the CPU reads out the disclosed user identification information, disclosed vehicle identification information, and permitted disclosure time from the external storage device.
In the next step S205, the server-side receiving unit 31 acquires the disclosed user identification information, disclosed vehicle identification information, disclosure request time, and vehicle 3 status information transmitted from the user terminal 40 via the communication line 5.

Next, in S210, it is determined whether the user identification information read in S200 matches the disclosed user identification information obtained in S205. If it is determined that they match (S210: Yes), the process proceeds to S215. If it is determined that they do not match (S210: No), the process proceeds to S230.

In S215, it is determined whether the vehicle identification information read in S200 matches the disclosed vehicle identification information acquired in S205. If it is determined that they match (S215: Yes), processing proceeds to S220. If it is determined that they do not match (S215: No), processing proceeds to S230.

In S220, the disclosure request time read in S200 is compared with the disclosure permission time obtained in S205 to determine whether the disclosure request time is within the disclosure permission time. If it is determined that the disclosure request time is within the permission time (S220: Yes), processing proceeds to S225. If it is determined that the disclosure request time is outside the permission time (S220: No), processing proceeds to S230.

In S225, the server-side transmitter 34 outputs the vehicle 3 status information together with the disclosed vehicle identification information to the user-side terminal 40 via the communication line 5, and then the process returns to S205.
In S230, the server-side transmitter 34 outputs information indicating that disclosure of the vehicle status information is not permitted together with the disclosed vehicle identification information to the user-side terminal 40 via the communication line 5, and then the process returns to S205.

(User terminal control processing)
Next, the user terminal control process executed by the user terminal control unit 46 of the user terminal 40 will be described with reference to Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a flowchart showing the flow of the user terminal control process. The user terminal control process starts when the user terminal 40 is powered on and ends when the user terminal 40 is powered off.

As shown in Figure 4, in S300, the CPU reads the user identification information from the user terminal storage unit 41, and then in S305, obtains the disclosure vehicle identification information and disclosure request time set in the disclosure request setting unit 42.

Next, in S310, the disclosed vehicle identification information and disclosure request time acquired in S305 are transmitted to the server 30 via the communication line 5 by the user terminal transmission unit 43, together with the user identification information (disclosed user identification information) read in S300.

In the next step S<b>315 , data including the user identification information of the user terminal 40 , which is transmitted from the server 30 via the communication line 5 , is acquired from the user terminal receiving unit 44 .
In the next step S320, it is determined whether the data acquired in step S315 is status information of the vehicle 3. If it is determined that the data is status information of the vehicle 3 (S320: Yes), the process proceeds to S325, and if it is determined that the data is not status information (S320: No), the process proceeds to S330.

In S325, the status information of vehicle 3 acquired in S315 is displayed on the display device as "status information of vehicle for which disclosure has been requested", and then the process returns to S305.
In S330, it is determined whether the data acquired in S315 is information indicating that disclosure of activity information is not permitted. If it is determined that the data is disclosure-prohibited information (S330: Yes), the process proceeds to S335. If it is determined that the data is not disclosure-prohibited information (S330: No), the process returns to S305.

In S335, the disclosure denial information obtained in S315 is displayed on the display device as "Disclosure of vehicle status information requested for disclosure is not permitted," and then processing returns to S305.

(Features of the vehicle movement management system)
In the vehicle movement management system 1 described above, the movement information of the vehicle 3 is transmitted from the vehicle 3 to the server 30 and stored in the server-side storage unit 32. In addition, the user-side terminal 40 on the user side transmits to the server 30 the vehicle identification information to be disclosed, the requested time for disclosure of the movement information of the vehicle 3, and the user identification information to be disclosed.

On the server 30 side, it is determined whether the disclosed vehicle identification information and disclosed user identification information received by the server-side receiving unit 31 match the vehicle identification information and user identification information stored in the server-side storage unit 32, and if they match, and the disclosure request time received by the server-side receiving unit 31 is included in the permitted disclosure time, the status information of the vehicle 3 identified by the vehicle identification information is transmitted to the user-side terminal 40 via the communication line 5.

As a result, on the user side where the user terminal 40 is located, the user of the vehicle 3 can only learn the vehicle 3's status information if the disclosure permission conditions are met, resulting in a vehicle status management system 1 that ensures the safety of the disclosure of information about the vehicle 3's status.

On the other hand, as long as the disclosure permission conditions are met, users can obtain status information not only about the vehicle 3 they are using themselves, but also about vehicles 3 other than their own, making this a very convenient vehicle status management system 1 while ensuring information security.

In other words, information can be exchanged between the vehicle 3, the provider of the vehicle 3, and the user of the vehicle 3, allowing for convenient management of the vehicle 3 while ensuring information security.
In addition, if the temperature inside the vehicle (temperature inside the storage compartment) is obtained as dynamic information, it will be useful for carrying out hygiene management in accordance with ACCAP as defined by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.It will also be useful when temperature control or temperature control history is required for vaccines, medical supplies, etc.

Second Embodiment
Next, a vehicle movement management system 1 according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a flowchart showing the flow of the disclosure permission determination process according to the second embodiment. Note that the permission determination process shown in Fig. 5 is similar to the disclosure permission determination process according to the first embodiment, and therefore a description of the same process will be omitted.

In addition, since the configuration of the system itself in the second embodiment is the same as that of the vehicle movement management system 1 in the first embodiment, a description of the system configuration and system components will be omitted. Furthermore, in the second embodiment, the movement information of vehicle 3 includes the current location of vehicle 3, departure time, waiting time, rest time, and estimated arrival time.

In the second embodiment, the server-side storage unit 32 stores in advance the departure point, route, designated points on the route, and destination of each vehicle 3 .
As shown in FIG. 5, in S200, the CPU reads out the disclosed user identification information, disclosed vehicle identification information, permitted disclosure time, departure point of vehicle 3, route, designated points on the route, and destination from the external storage device.

In S207 following S205, map information is read from the server-side storage unit 32, and then processing proceeds to S210. This map information is the map information used for so-called car navigation, and is map information that can identify a driving route from the current position of the vehicle 3 to a destination position.

In S220, the disclosure request time read in S200 is compared with the disclosure permission time obtained in S205 to determine whether the disclosure request time is within the disclosure permission time. If it is determined that the disclosure request time is within the permission time (S220: Yes), processing proceeds to S223. If it is determined that the disclosure request time is outside the permission time (S220: No), processing proceeds to S230.

In S223, the arrival time from vehicle 3's current position to the destination is calculated based on the destination of vehicle 3 read in S200, the vehicle 3's status information (current position) acquired in S205, and the map information read in S207. Also, the estimated arrival time at the destination, delay time to the destination, and estimated delay time at the specified point are calculated based on the departure time, waiting time, rest time, and estimated arrival time in the status information.

In S225, the server-side transmitter 34 outputs the current position of vehicle 3, the estimated arrival time at the destination calculated in S223, the delay time to the destination, and the estimated delay time at the specified point, along with the disclosed vehicle identification information, to the user-side terminal 40 via communication line 5, and then the process returns to S205.

With this type of vehicle status management system 1, the user of the vehicle 3 can know the current location of the vehicle that has been granted permission to be disclosed, as well as the arrival time of that vehicle 3 at its destination, making the vehicle status management system 1 more convenient.

[Third embodiment]
Next, a vehicle movement management system 2 according to a third embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 6. Fig. 6 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the vehicle movement management system 2 according to the third embodiment. Note that the movement management system 2 shown in Fig. 6 is similar to the vehicle movement management system 1 according to the first embodiment, and therefore a description of the same components will be omitted.

As shown in Figure 6, the vehicle status information acquisition unit 20 does not acquire vehicle status information from devices such as a GPS receiver 21 or digital tachograph 22 installed in the vehicle 3, but rather acquires vehicle status information from other systems via the communication line 5.

Specifically, the vehicle status information acquisition unit 20 is a transceiver that transmits and receives data via the communication line 5. It is configured to receive vehicle status information having the same content as the vehicle status information in the first embodiment from other vehicle status management systems 6 or other services 7 via the communication line 5.

The vehicle-side control process, disclosure permission determination process, and user-side terminal control process in the third embodiment are the same as those in the first and second embodiments.
