Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of parking lots, and in particular to a method, device and storage medium for parking fee calculation in a parking lot. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing number of self-driving tourists, most service industries offer parking discounts and exemptions to those who visit. To ensure efficient vehicle traffic during peak periods, this requires the collaborative efforts of the parking management platform, the hotel management platform, and the travelers. Currently, travelers first check in at the hotel management platform. The hotel management platform generates check-in data based on the traveler's information. The traveler then applies for vehicle authorization with the hotel management platform. The hotel management platform generates the corresponding vehicle authorization information based on the traveler's check-in data. Finally, the hotel management platform sends the vehicle authorization information to the parking management platform. Based on this information, the parking management platform then implements parking discounts and exemptions for the traveler.

[0003] However, when a guest's check-in requirements change, the hotel management platform updates the guest's check-in data and vehicle authorization information. The hotel management platform then sends the updated vehicle authorization information to the parking management platform. With frequent changes in guest check-in requirements, the parking management platform is unable to promptly update the corresponding vehicle authorization information. This results in the inability to accurately deduct parking fees based on the guest's actual stay, leading to inaccurate parking billing. Summary of the Invention

[0056] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in the following description with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, and all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor based on the embodiments of the present application also belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0057] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 Figure 1 Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for parking fee charging in a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the present application provides a method for parking fee charging in a parking lot, which specifically includes the following steps.

[0058] S101, obtaining the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time of a target user.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle of the target user enters the parking lot, the parking lot management system identifies the visiting vehicle through an image recognition device, obtains the vehicle information of the target user, and records the vehicle entry time of the target user. Similarly, when the vehicle of the target user exits the parking lot, the parking lot management system identifies the exiting vehicle through the image recognition device, obtains the vehicle information of the target user, and records the vehicle exit time of the target user.

[0060] S102, obtaining the consumption information of the target user from a service industry management system.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the service industry management system is a system for recording the consumption information of the target user. The service industry management system can be a management system of a hotel platform, a consumption system of a hospital platform, or a consumption system of a scenic spot platform. The present application does not limit this. Different consumption scenarios have different contents included in the consumption information. For example, in the consumption scenario of hotel check-in, the consumption information includes the identity information of the check-in person and the check-in information. Since the user can make a hotel room reservation through a user terminal, the check-in information at least includes the expected check-in time and the expected check-out time. After the user actually checks in, the check-in information can further include the actual check-in time and the actual check-out time. In the consumption scenario of hospital treatment, the consumption information includes the identity information and the treatment information. The treatment information at least includes the treatment time. In the consumption scenario of shopping malls or scenic spots, the consumption information includes the consumption receipt number, the consumption amount, and the consumption time. For the above different consumption scenarios, the consumption information can further include other information such as the name of the consumption store. The present application does not limit this.

[0062] S103, determining the parking fee reduction time period according to the consumption information.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, generally, hotels, scenic spots, or hospitals will give parking concessions to visiting consumers. The target user can obtain a specific parking fee reduction time period according to the consumption information.

[0064] ​For example, in a hotel consumption scenario, the expected check-in time or the actual check-in time in the consumption information can be used as the start time of the parking fee reduction time period, and the expected check-out time or the actual check-out time can be used as the end time of the parking fee reduction time period.

[0065] For another example, in a scenic spot, a hospital, a shopping mall or the like, the consumption time in the consumption information can be used as the marking time point, and the time period within the preset time range, which is centered on the marking time point, can be determined as the parking fee reduction time period.

[0066] S104, determining whether the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time are located within the parking fee reduction time period.

[0067] S105, if the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time are both located within the parking fee reduction time period, reducing the parking fee of the target user.

[0068] In the embodiment of the present application, if the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time of the target user are both located within the parking fee reduction time period, the parking fee of the target user is reduced. For example, during the hotel check-in period, the target user can freely enter and exit the parking lot of the hotel. The time period of the hotel check-in period is the parking fee reduction time period. For another example, in a scenic spot, a hospital, a shopping mall or the like, the consumption time is the center, and the time period within the preset time range is the parking fee reduction time period.

[0069] Whether the reduction is the reduction of the entire parking fee or the reduction of part of the parking fee can be specifically set according to the parking reduction preferential policy of the parking lot. This is not limited herein.

[0070] S106, if at least one of the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time is not located within the parking fee reduction time period, determining the chargeable time length according to at least one of the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time and the consumption information, and calculating the parking fee of the target user according to the chargeable time length.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, in a hotel consumption scenario, the chargeable time length can specifically include the pre-parking time length and the stay time length.

[0072] For example, in the hotel check-in consumption scenario, if the vehicle entry time of the target user is earlier than the check-in time of the target customer, the pre-parking duration of the target user needs to be calculated according to the vehicle entry time and the consumption information. In the hotel check-in consumption scenario, if the vehicle exit time of the target user is later than the check-out time of the target customer, the stay duration of the vehicle of the target user needs to be calculated according to the vehicle exit time and the consumption information. Then, the pre-parking duration and the stay duration are added to obtain the chargeable duration. The above check-in time can be the expected check-in time or the actual check-in time, and the above check-out time can be the expected check-out time or the actual check-out time.

[0073] It should be noted that after the chargeable duration is calculated, the above parking fee can be calculated according to the parking fee reduction rule corresponding to the parking lot and the chargeable duration.

[0074] For example, the parking fee reduction rule stipulates that the parking fee of the vehicle needs to be increased by five yuan every hour within the chargeable duration. When the chargeable duration of the target user is two hours, the parking fee of the target user is ten yuan.

[0075] For another example, in the consumption scenarios of hospitals, scenic spots, shopping malls and the like, the total parking time of the vehicle can also be calculated according to the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time, and the vehicle preferential reduction duration (i.e., the total time length from the start time to the end time of the parking fee reduction time period) can be calculated through the parking fee reduction time period set according to the consumption time in the consumption information. Finally, the difference between the total parking time of the vehicle and the vehicle preferential reduction duration, i.e., the above chargeable duration, can be obtained.

[0076] The application provides a parking fee charging method for a parking lot, comprising the following steps: obtaining a vehicle entry time and a vehicle exit time of a target user; obtaining consumption information of the target user from a service industry management system; determining a parking fee reduction time period according to the consumption information; judging whether the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time are located in the parking fee reduction time period; if both the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time are located in the parking fee reduction time period, reducing the parking fee of the target user; if at least one of the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period, determining a chargeable time length according to at least one of the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time and the consumption information; and calculating the parking fee of the target user according to the chargeable time length. Therefore, the consumption information obtained by the parking lot management system from the service industry management system is the latest consumption information of the target user. Therefore, the parking lot management system can accurately determine the parking fee reduction time period of the target user according to the consumption information. Therefore, if the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time of the target user are located in the parking fee reduction time period, the parking lot management system can correctly reduce the parking fee of the target user according to the consumption information of the target user and the corresponding parking reduction preferential policy, so as to realize accurate charging and improve the consumption experience of the user.

[0077] It can be understood that in the specific embodiments of the application, the data related to the vehicle entry time, the vehicle exit time, the consumption information, the vehicle information, the consumption order number information and the binding information are involved, and when the embodiments in the application are applied to specific products or technologies, the user permission or consent needs to be obtained, and the collection, use and processing of the related data need to comply with the relevant laws, regulations and standards of the country and region.

[0078] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a flowchart of a parking fee charging method in an embodiment of the application; in an embodiment of the application, before obtaining the consumption information of the target user from the service industry management system, the method further comprises the following steps:

[0079] S201, obtaining vehicle information of a target user;

[0080] S202, obtaining consumption order number information of the target user;

[0081] S203, binding the consumption order number information and the vehicle information to obtain binding information;

[0082] S204, sending the binding information to a service industry management system.

[0083] In the embodiments of the present application, the vehicle information includes a license plate number, a vehicle manufacturer, a license plate home location, and a vehicle body color. For example, at the vehicle entry, the parking lot obtains the vehicle information of the target user through a vehicle identification device, such as the license plate number of the vehicle being Guangdong B88888, the vehicle manufacturer being a certain manufacturer, the license plate home location being Shenzhen, and the vehicle body color being black.

[0084] The above consumption order number information is used to identify the consumption information of the target user. In different consumption scenarios, the consumption order number information can be different. For example, in the hotel stay and play scenario, the consumption order number information is a hotel check-in order number or a hotel check-in room number. In the hospital treatment scenario, the consumption order number information can be a treatment order number of a treatment person. In the consumption scenario of a shopping mall or a scenic spot, the consumption order number can be a consumption receipt order number of a shopping mall or a scenic spot.

[0085] Further, at the vehicle exit, the target user can pay the parking fee by scanning the payment QR code displayed on the screen at the parking lot. Before the target user pays the parking fee on the parking fee application or the parking fee applet of the parking lot, the target user can input the consumption order number information into the parking fee application or the parking fee applet. After the parking lot management system receives the consumption order number information of the target user, the consumption order number information and the currently identified vehicle information are bound together to obtain the binding information.

[0086] Alternatively, when the target user consumes in the consumption scenarios such as a hotel, a hospital, a shopping mall, or a scenic spot, the consumption order number information and the vehicle information can be uploaded to the parking lot management system. After the uploading, the parking lot management system can obtain the above consumption order number information and vehicle information. After the parking lot management system receives the consumption order number information and the vehicle information of the target user, the consumption order number information and the vehicle information are bound together to obtain the binding information. The above uploading can be through the parking fee application, the parking fee applet, or any other communication mode with the parking lot management system.

[0087] In summary, the above parking lot management system obtains the above consumption order number information at any time before the vehicle exits the parking lot, and the specific time can be determined by the user. The target user can input the consumption order number information into the parking fee application or the parking fee applet at the vehicle exit, or the target user can upload the consumption order number information to the parking lot management system when consuming.

[0088] It should be noted that the parking lot management system needs to synchronize the binding information to the service industry management system to confirm whether the consumption message is valid consumption information in a time period. The service industry management system can be a management system of a hotel platform, a consumption system of a hospital platform, or a consumption system of a scenic spot platform. The present application does not limit this. For example, in the scenario of hotel check-in, the parking lot management system sends the binding information to the management system of the hotel platform. The management system of the hotel platform stores the received binding information, so that the parking lot management system can obtain the consumption information of the target user from the management system of the hotel platform according to the vehicle information or the consumption order number information.

[0089] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a third flowchart of the method for parking lot parking charging in an embodiment of the present application. In an embodiment of the present application, the consumption information of the target user includes: hotel stay information of the target user, and the hotel stay information of the target user includes: expected check-in time and expected check-out time. The method for determining the parking fee reduction time period according to the consumption information includes:

[0090] 301. Determine the parking fee reduction time period according to the expected check-in time and the expected check-out time.

[0091] In an embodiment of the present application, the start time of the parking fee reduction time period of the target user can be the expected check-in time of the target user, and the end time of the parking fee reduction time period of the target user can be the expected check-out time.

[0092] That is, in the expected check-in time and the expected check-out time period of the hotel, the vehicle of the target user can freely enter and exit the parking lot without paying any vehicle parking fee.

[0093] It should be noted that the hotel check-in consumption scenario is only an example, and in addition thereto, it can also be applied to any other consumption scenario that can provide check-in services, such as a hospital providing a bed check-in consumption scenario. There can also be corresponding expected check-in time and expected check-out time (in the consumption scenario of the hospital providing a bed check-in, the corresponding expected check-out time can be the expected check-out time). In the expected check-in time and the expected check-out time period of the hospital bed, the vehicle of the target user can also freely enter and exit the parking lot without paying any vehicle parking fee.

[0094] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a fourth flowchart of the method for parking lot parking charging in an embodiment of the present application. In an embodiment of the present application, the method for determining the chargeable time length according to at least one of the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time and the consumption information includes:

[0095] 401、in a case that the vehicle entry time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period and the vehicle exit time is located in the parking fee reduction time period, determining a first time period according to the expected check-in time, the vehicle entry time and the preset parking reduction preferential policy, and determining the chargeable duration based on the first time period;

[0096] 402、in a case that the vehicle entry time is located in the parking fee reduction time period and the vehicle exit time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period, determining a second time period according to the expected check-out time, the vehicle exit time and the preset parking reduction preferential policy, and determining the chargeable duration based on the second time period;

[0097] 403、in a case that the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time are both not located in the parking fee reduction time period, determining the chargeable duration according to the first time period and the second time period.

[0098] In the embodiment of the application, the preset parking reduction preferential policy is a parking reduction preferential policy set by the parking lot. The parking reduction preferential policy of the parking lot is different for different consumption scenarios. The application does not limit this. For example, in the hotel check-in consumption scenario, the parking reduction preferential policy can be that the parking lot management system does not calculate the chargeable duration within two hours after the expected check-out time of the target user and within two hours before the expected check-in time of the target user. When the vehicle exit time of the target user exceeds the expected check-out time of the target user by two hours or the vehicle entry time of the target user exceeds the expected check-in time of the target user, the parking lot management system will calculate the chargeable duration of the target user.

[0099] Taking the hotel check-in consumption scenario as an example, in the hotel check-in consumption scenario, if the vehicle entry time of the target user is earlier than the above-mentioned expected check-in time (i.e. the vehicle entry time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period), the pre-parking duration of the target user (i.e. the duration of the first time period) needs to be calculated according to the vehicle entry time and the consumption information. If the vehicle exit time of the target user is later than the expected check-out time of the target user (i.e. the vehicle exit time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period), the stay duration of the vehicle of the target user (i.e. the duration of the second time period) needs to be calculated according to the vehicle exit time and the consumption information.

[0100] It should be noted that the hotel check-in consumption scenario is only an example, and in addition thereto, it can also be applied to any other consumption scenario that can provide check-in services, such as a hospital consumption scenario that can provide bed check-in, etc. There can also be corresponding expected check-in time and expected check-out time (in the consumption scenario of the hospital providing bed check-in, it can correspond to the expected check-out time). The corresponding chargeable duration can also be calculated according to the expected check-in time and the expected check-out time corresponding to the consumption scenario of the hospital providing bed check-in.

[0101] Specifically, the vehicle entry time can be taken as the start time, and the expected check-in time can be taken as the end time to obtain the first time period. The expected check-out time can also be taken as the start time, and the expected check-out time can be taken as the end time to obtain the second time period.

[0102] After the first time period and the second time period are obtained, the corresponding chargeable time length can be calculated according to the preset parking discount policy. For example, the first time period is from 8:00 to 12:00, and the preset parking discount policy includes that the parking management system does not calculate the chargeable time length for the target user within two hours before the expected check-in time. Therefore, the pre-parking time length corresponding to the first time period is two hours. For another example, the second time period is from 15:00 to 19:00, and the preset parking discount policy includes that the parking management system does not calculate the chargeable time length for the target user within two hours after the expected check-out time. Therefore, the stay time length corresponding to the second time period is two hours.

[0103] When the vehicle entry time is not within the parking fee discount time period and the vehicle exit time is within the parking fee discount time period, the pre-parking time length can be taken as the chargeable time length. When the vehicle entry time is within the parking fee discount time period and the vehicle exit time is not within the parking fee discount time period, the stay time length can be taken as the chargeable time length. When neither the vehicle entry time nor the vehicle exit time is within the parking fee discount time period, the pre-parking time length and the stay time length can be added to obtain the chargeable time length.

[0104] It should be noted that taking the expected check-in time and the expected check-out time as the start time and the end time of the parking fee discount time period can enable the user to enter and exit the parking lot multiple times during the period from check-in to check-out (i.e., during the stay), and still enjoy the corresponding parking discount policy, thereby realizing parking fee discount during the stay. Accordingly, even if the user checks out during the stay, the expected check-out time can still be taken as the end time of the parking fee discount time period to ensure that the user can still park for free within the original parking fee discount time period after checking out. Whether it is necessary to “ensure that the user can still park for free within the original parking fee discount time period after checking out” can be determined according to actual needs or the parking discount policy. If it is not necessary, the actual check-out time of the user can be used to replace the expected check-out time as the end time of the parking fee discount time period.

[0105] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 5 is a flowchart of a method for parking fee calculation in a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present application; in the embodiment, the method further includes:

[0106] 501. When the actual check-in time and the actual check-out time of the target user are obtained from the consumption information, the parking fee reduction time period is updated based on the actual check-in time and the actual check-out time.

[0107] In this embodiment of the present invention, if the user has already checked in, the hotel management system will generate the actual check-in time in the consumption information. If the user has already checked out, the hotel management system will generate the actual check-out time in the consumption information. If the parking management system obtains the actual check-in time and the actual check-out time in the consumption information, it means that the user has completed the consumption at the hotel at this time. Therefore, the parking fee exemption period can be updated according to the actual check-out time. This ensures that if the user checks out midway after checking in, they will lose the free parking rights after checking out.

[0108] The above update can specifically be to replace the above expected check-in time with the above actual check-in time as the starting time of the above parking fee reduction period, and replace the above expected check-out time with the above actual check-out time as the end time of the above parking fee reduction period.

[0109] It should be noted that the hotel check-in consumption scenario is merely an example. It can also be applied to any other consumption scenario where check-in services are provided, such as a hospital bed-providing consumption scenario. There can also be corresponding actual check-in times and actual check-out times (in the hospital bed-providing consumption scenario, the corresponding actual check-out time can be). The corresponding parking fee reduction time period can also be updated based on the corresponding actual check-in times and actual check-out times.

[0110] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 FIG6 is a flowchart of a method for parking fee charging in a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present invention; in an embodiment of the present invention, determining the chargeable time based on at least one of the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time and consumption information includes:

[0111] 601. When the vehicle's entry time is not within the parking fee exemption period, but the vehicle's exit time is within the parking fee exemption period, a third time period is determined based on the actual check-in time, the vehicle's entry time, and the preset parking fee exemption policy, and the chargeable duration is determined based on the third time period.

[0112] 602. When the vehicle's entry time falls within the parking fee exemption period, and the vehicle's exit time does not fall within the parking fee exemption period, a fourth time period is determined based on the actual check-out time, the vehicle's exit time, and the preset parking fee exemption policy, and the chargeable duration is determined based on the fourth time period.

[0113] 603、When neither the vehicle entry time nor the vehicle exit time is located in the parking fee reduction time period, the chargeable duration is determined according to the third time period and the fourth time period.

[0114] In the embodiments of the present application, the preset parking reduction preferential policy is a parking reduction preferential policy set by the parking lot. The parking reduction preferential policy of the parking lot is different for different consumption scenarios. The present application does not limit this. For example, in the hotel stay consumption scenario, the parking reduction preferential policy can be that the parking lot management system does not calculate the chargeable duration within two hours after the actual check-out of the target user and within two hours before the actual check-in of the target user. When the vehicle exit time of the target user exceeds the actual check-out time of the target user by two hours or the vehicle entry time of the target user exceeds the actual check-in time of the target user, the parking lot management system will calculate the chargeable duration of the target user.

[0115] Taking the hotel stay consumption scenario as an example, in the hotel stay consumption scenario, if the vehicle entry time of the target user is earlier than the actual check-in time (i.e., the vehicle entry time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period), the pre-parking duration of the target user (i.e., the duration of the third time period) needs to be calculated according to the vehicle entry time and the consumption information. If the vehicle exit time of the target user is later than the actual check-out time of the target user (i.e., the vehicle exit time is not located in the parking fee reduction time period), the stay duration of the vehicle of the target user (i.e., the duration of the fourth time period) needs to be calculated according to the vehicle exit time and the consumption information.

[0116] It should be noted that the hotel stay consumption scenario is only an example, and in addition thereto, it can also be applied to any other consumption scenario that can provide a stay service, such as a hospital consumption scenario that can provide a bed stay, etc. There can also be corresponding actual check-in time and actual check-out time (in the consumption scenario of the hospital providing a bed stay, it can correspond to the actual check-out time). The corresponding chargeable duration can also be calculated according to the actual check-in time and the actual check-out time corresponding to the consumption scenario of the hospital providing a bed stay.

[0117] Specifically, the vehicle entry time can be taken as the start time, and the actual check-in time can be taken as the end time to obtain the third time period. The actual check-out time can also be taken as the start time, and the actual check-out time can be taken as the end time to obtain the fourth time period.

[0118] After the third time period and the fourth time period are obtained, the corresponding chargeable time length can be calculated according to the preset parking discount policy. For example, the first time period is from 08:00 to 12:00, and the preset parking discount policy includes that the parking management system does not calculate the chargeable time length for the target user within two hours before actual check-in, and the third time period corresponds to a pre-parking time length of two hours. For another example, the fourth time period is from 15:00 to 19:00, and the preset parking discount policy includes that the parking management system does not calculate the chargeable time length for the target user within two hours after actual check-out, and the fourth time period corresponds to a stay time length of two hours.

[0119] When the vehicle entry time is not located in the parking fee discount time period and the vehicle exit time is located in the parking fee discount time period, the pre-parking time length can be used as the chargeable time length. When the vehicle entry time is located in the parking fee discount time period and the vehicle exit time is not located in the parking fee discount time period, the stay time length can be used as the chargeable time length. When neither the vehicle entry time nor the vehicle exit time is located in the parking fee discount time period, the pre-parking time length and the stay time length can be added to obtain the chargeable time length.

[0120] Referring to Figure 7 , Figure 7 FIG. 7 is a flowchart of a method for parking fee calculation in a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present application; in an embodiment of the present application, the consumption information includes a consumption time, and the parking fee discount time period is determined according to the consumption information, including:

[0121] 701. Determine the parking fee discount time period according to the consumption time.

[0122] In an embodiment of the present application, it is assumed that the preset parking discount policy is that the two hours before and after consumption are the parking fee discount time period, and the hospital treatment consumption scenario is taken as an example. When the consumption time (for example, the medical payment time) of the target user going to the hospital for treatment is 12:00, the parking management system determines the parking fee discount time period as 10:00-14:00 according to the consumption time of the target user as the middle time point.

[0123] Correspondingly, the scenic spot play consumption scenario is taken as an example. When the consumption time (for example, the checkout time of purchasing the scenic spot ticket) of the target user going to the scenic spot for play is 12:00, the parking management system determines the parking fee discount time period as 10:00-14:00 according to the consumption time of the target user as the middle time point.

[0124] Correspondingly, taking the shopping consumption scenario in a shopping mall as an example, if the target user goes shopping at 12.00, the parking management system can determine the parking fee reduction time period as 10.00-14.00 according to the consumption time of the target user as the intermediate time point.

[0125] For another example, in the shopping mall consumption scenario, the parking reduction preferential policy of the shopping mall can be that the vehicle preferential reduction time length is increased by one hour for each one hundred yuan of the consumption amount of the user. Assuming that the consumption amount of the target user is three hundred yuan, the target user can park for free for three hours in the shopping mall. At this time, if the consumption time is 12.00, any time period with a length of three hours in 9.00-15.00 can be taken as the parking fee reduction time period, and the start time of the parking fee reduction time period in 9.00-15.00 can be the actual parking time of the target user. If the actual parking time of the target user is earlier than 9.00, the start time of the parking fee reduction time period can be 9.00.

[0126] Referring to Figure 8 , Figure 8 FIG. 8 is a flowchart of a method for parking charging in a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present application; in an embodiment of the present application, the method further includes:

[0127] 801, determining the total parking time of the vehicle according to the vehicle entry time and the vehicle exit time;

[0128] 802, determining the preferential reduction time length of the vehicle according to the parking fee reduction time period;

[0129] 803, determining the chargeable time length according to the total parking time of the vehicle and the preferential reduction time of the vehicle.

[0130] In an embodiment of the present application, the total parking time of the vehicle of the target user is the vehicle exit time of the target user minus the vehicle entry time of the target user. The time length of the parking fee reduction time period is the preferential reduction time length of the vehicle, which can be obtained by subtracting the start time of the parking fee reduction time period from the end time of the parking fee reduction time period.

[0131] It should be noted that the chargeable time length of the target user is the difference between the total parking time of the vehicle and the preferential reduction time of the vehicle. For example, if the total parking time of the vehicle of the target user is two hours and the preferential reduction time of the vehicle is one hour, the chargeable time length of the target user is one hour.

[0132] It should be noted that when the target user enters or exits the parking lot, the entrance device of the parking lot will broadcast the visiting vehicle information by voice or the exit device of the parking lot will broadcast the voice specific to the consuming vehicle. For example, when the target user drives into the entrance of the parking lot, the entrance device of the parking lot will broadcast the license plate information of the target vehicle by voice. For example, "Guangdong B88888, temporary vehicle". At the exit of the parking lot, the exit device of the parking lot will broadcast the parking fee of the target vehicle by voice, such as "Guangdong B88888, temporary parking for three hours, fee of fifteen yuan". Of course, the entrance / exit device of the parking lot will also display the information specific to the consuming vehicle.

[0133] In addition, the parking lot management system records the parking information and vehicle information of each vehicle to realize report statistics. For example, when the vehicle of the target user exits the parking lot, the parking lot management system records the vehicle information of the target user, the vehicle entry time, the vehicle exit time, and the vehicle discount time. The parking lot management system records the parking information and vehicle information of all vehicles and analyzes the data information to obtain statistical indicators of the parking lot. The statistical indicators of the parking lot are used to guide the parking lot management system to optimize the parking discount policy. For example, through data analysis, the parking lot management personnel can know the peak parking time period and the valley parking time period of the parking lot. In the valley parking time period, the parking lot management system can appropriately adopt a greater parking discount policy to maximize the parking fee income of the parking lot.

[0134] It should be understood that the size of the serial number of each step in the above embodiment does not mean the order of execution, and the execution order of each process should be determined according to its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiment of the present application.
