[Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a vehicle entrance / exit management system in the first embodiment. [Diagram 3] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of an arrival / departure timetable displayed on the display unit in the first embodiment. [Figure 4] FIG. 4 is a flow diagram showing a method for managing entry and exit of vehicles in the first embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] It is preferable that the entrance side detector is composed of a first portable terminal, the exit side detector is composed of a second portable terminal, and the entry / exit determination unit is composed of a calculation device capable of wireless communication with the first portable terminal and the second portable terminal. As a result, since the entrance side detector and the exit side detector are composed of different portable terminals, it is possible to accommodate logistics centers of various sizes that are beyond the reach of a BLE beacon.

[0011] It is preferable that the bus stops are arranged on multiple floors in the distribution center, and the entrance side detector and the exit side detector are provided to detect the entry and exit status of the vehicles on each floor. In this case, the entry and exit status of the vehicles on each floor can be detected, and the entry and exit of the vehicles can be accurately managed even in a distribution center having multiple floors.

[0012] It is preferable to include a planned time storage unit that stores a planned entry time, which is a pre-planned entry time for the plurality of vehicles to enter the logistics center, an entry delay determination unit that compares an actual entry time, which is a time determined by the entry / exit determination unit to be in the IN state, with the planned entry time to determine whether the actual entry time is delayed from the planned entry time, and a delay information output unit that outputs delay information when the determination result of the entry delay determination unit indicates that the actual entry time is delayed from the planned entry time. In this case, by outputting the delay information, a manager can easily grasp the delay when a delay occurs in the entry of a vehicle into the logistics center.

[0013] The system includes an acceptable time storage unit that stores an acceptable time that is a predetermined time before a planned entry time that is a pre-planned entry time of the plurality of vehicles to the logistics center, and an acceptance determination unit that determines whether or not the vehicle can be accepted based on the arrival time that is the time when the entrance side detection signal is received and the acceptable time, and it is preferable that the entry / exit determination unit does not determine the in state when the determination result of the acceptance determination unit indicates that the vehicle is not acceptable, and determines the in state when the determination result indicates that the vehicle is acceptable. In this case, the in state is not given to a vehicle that arrives before the acceptable time, so that premature entry into the logistics center can be restricted.

[0014] When the exit side detection signal is received, if the stay time, which is the time from the time when the entrance side detection signal is received to the time when the exit side detection signal is received, is shorter than a predetermined reference time, the entry / exit determination unit preferably discards the IN state and determines the vehicle as a pass-through state without determining the OUT state, and determines the vehicle as an IN state when the entrance side detection signal is received again. In this case, the vehicle that has passed through the logistics center can re-enter and receive goods.

[0015] It is preferable to include an estimated arrival time storage unit that stores an estimated arrival time, which is a time when the vehicle will arrive at the logistics center, which is estimated in advance, an arrival delay determination unit that determines whether the arrival of the vehicle is delayed from the estimated arrival time based on whether the entrance / exit determination unit has received the entrance side detection signal by the estimated arrival time, and an arrival delay information output unit that outputs arrival delay information when the determination result of the arrival delay determination unit indicates that the arrival of the vehicle is delayed. In this case, since a vehicle that has not arrived at the estimated arrival time may be late for the entrance time, by outputting the arrival delay information, it is possible to check with the driver of the vehicle before the entrance time or to prepare for a response in case the vehicle is delayed.

[0016] The estimated arrival time is preferably set for each vehicle based on the past arrival time of the vehicle, thereby making it possible to set an optimal estimated arrival time for each vehicle.

[0017] (Embodiment 1) 1. Overview of Vehicle Entrance / Exit Control System 1 The configuration of the vehicle entrance / exit management system 1 of the present embodiment 1 will be described below with reference to the drawings. The vehicle entrance / exit management system 1 of the present embodiment 1 includes a management device 40, and manages the entrance / exit of the vehicles V1-V3 to / from the logistics center 10, as the vehicles V1-V3 enter each of the multiple bus stops 11-13 provided in the logistics center 10 in sequence. Note that the number of vehicles is not limited to this, and can be set appropriately as necessary. Each component of the vehicle entrance / exit management system 1 will be described below in detail.

[0018] 1-1. Logistics Center 10 1, the logistics center 10 includes a plurality of stops 11-13 where vehicles V1-V3 equipped with transmitters 31-33 perform loading and unloading of cargo, an internal passage 14 that guides the vehicles V1-V3 to the stops 11-13, an entrance road 15 connected to an entrance 141 of the internal passage 14, and an exit road 16 connected to an exit 142 of the internal passage 14. An entrance side detector 21 is provided near the entrance 141 of the internal passage 14, and an exit side detector 22 is provided near the exit 142 of the internal passage 14.

[0019] 1-2. Transmitters 31-33 The transmitters 31 to 33 are mounted on the vehicles V1 to V3, respectively. B bluetooth L ow E Each of the transmitters 31 to 33 is a unique identifier UUID ( U niversally U nique I The transmission distance of the signals transmitted from the transmitters 31 to 33 can be set appropriately within a range of 1 m to 150 m, and is set to several meters in the first embodiment.

[0020] 1-3. Entrance detector 21 The entrance side detector 21 is disposed near the entrance 141 of the on-site passage 14, and detects the transmission signals of the transmitters 31 to 33 mounted on the vehicles V1 to V3 that have passed through the entrance 141 and entered the on-site passage 14. The detection range 21a of the entrance side detector 21 is the vicinity area of ​​the entrance 141 of the on-site passage 14. The entrance side detector 21 outputs an entrance side detection signal based on the detection of the signal transmitted from the transmitters 31 to 33 in the entrance vicinity area. The entrance side detector 21 is not limited as long as it has a configuration capable of detecting the transmission signal of the BLE beacon, and for example, a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or tablet, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, etc. can be adopted. Among them, it is preferable to use a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or tablet. In the present embodiment 1, the entrance side detector 21 is configured by a smartphone as a first mobile terminal in which a program for executing the function of the entrance side detector 21 is installed.

[0021] 1-4. Exit side detector 22 The exit side detector 22 is disposed near the exit 142 of the on-site passage 14 and detects the transmission signals of the transmitters 31 to 33 mounted on the vehicles V1 to V3 that have passed through the exit 142 and entered the on-site passage 14. The detection range 22a of the exit side detector 22 is the area near the exit 142 of the on-site passage 14. The exit side detector 22 can be configured similarly to the entrance side detector 21. The exit side detector 22 outputs an exit side detection signal based on detecting a signal transmitted from the transmitters 31 to 33 in the area near the exit, or based on not detecting the signal after detecting the signal. In the present embodiment 1, the exit side detection signal is output based on not detecting the signal after detecting the signal transmitted from the transmitters 31 to 33 in the area near the exit. In the present embodiment 1, the exit side detector 22 is configured by a smartphone as a second mobile terminal in which a program for executing the function of the exit side detector 22 is installed.

[0022] 2.Management device 40 As shown in Fig. 2, the management device 40 includes an entry / exit determination unit 41, a planned time storage unit 42, an entry delay determination unit 43, a delay information output unit 44, an acceptable time storage unit 45, an acceptance / rejection determination unit 46, an estimated arrival time storage unit 47, an arrival delay determination unit 48, an arrival delay information output unit 49, a pass-through determination unit 50, a display unit 51, and a performance recording unit 52. The management device 40 is composed of a calculation device, a storage device, and a display device. The management device 40 can be installed inside or outside the logistics center 10, and can communicate with the entrance side detector 21 and the exit side detector 22 via a network 2 such as the Internet. Each component of the management device 40 will be described in detail below.

[0023] 2-1. Ingress / egress determination unit 41 2 receives an entrance side detection signal output from the entrance side detector 21 and an exit side detection signal output from the exit side detector 22, and determines whether the vehicles V1 to V2 have entered or exited the logistics center 10. In the first embodiment, the entry / exit determination unit 41 is configured by a calculation device capable of wireless communication with a first portable terminal as the entrance side detector 21 and a second portable terminal as the exit side detector 22.

[0024] When the entry / exit determination unit 41 receives an entrance side detection signal, it determines that the vehicles V1-V3 corresponding to the entrance side detection signal are in an IN state, that is, they have entered the logistics center 10. In addition, it maintains the determination that it is in the IN state from when it receives the entrance side detection signal until it receives the exit side detection signal. Then, when it receives an exit side detection signal in the IN state, it determines that the vehicles V1-V3 corresponding to the exit side detection signal are in an OUT state, that is, they have left the logistics center 10. In this embodiment 1, as shown as actual results in FIG. 3, the time when it is determined that it is in the IN state is recorded as an actual entry time Tb1. In addition, the time when it is determined that it is in the OUT state is recorded as an actual exit time Tb2.

[0025] 2-2. Planned time storage unit 42 The planned time storage unit 42 shown in FIG. 2 stores planned entry and exit times, which are the entry and exit times of a plurality of vehicles V1 to V3 to and from the logistics center 10, as planned entry and exit times, for each of the stations 11 to 13, as shown in the entry and exit timetable displayed on the display unit 51 shown in FIG. 3. The planned stay period Tap at the logistics center 10 is from the planned entry time Ta1 to the planned exit time Ta2. The planned entry time Ta1 can be set appropriately according to the amount of cargo, the number of vehicles, and the like. In the entry and exit timetable shown in FIG. 3, the entry and exit times of the corresponding vehicles V1 to V3 are listed as actual results along with the planned entry and exit times. Although the second station 12 and the third station 13 are not marked in FIG. 3, they are the same as the plan and actual results of the first station 11.

[0026] 2-3. Entry Delay Judgment Section 43 The entrance delay determination unit 43 shown in Fig. 2 compares the actual entrance time Tb1, which is the time when the entrance / exit determination unit 41 determines that the vehicle is in the in state, with the planned entrance time Ta1 to determine whether the actual entrance time Tb1 is later than the planned entrance time Ta1. For example, at the second cargo receiving timing II at the station 11 shown in Fig. 3, the actual entrance time Tb1 is determined to be later than the planned entrance time Ta1.

[0027] 2-4. Delay information output unit 44 The delay information output unit 44 shown in Fig. 2 outputs delay information when the result of the determination by the entrance delay determination unit 43 indicates that the actual entrance time Tb1 is delayed from the planned entrance time Ta1. For example, in the present embodiment 1, the stay time Tbp of the second goods receiving timing II at the station 11 shown in Fig. 3 is displayed in a flashing manner as the output delay information. This makes it more noticeable than when there is no delay.

[0028] 2-5. Acceptable time storage unit 45 The acceptable time storage unit 45 shown in Fig. 2 stores an acceptable time Tc, which is a predetermined time before a planned entry time, which is a pre-planned entry time of the plurality of vehicles to the logistics center. The time for setting the acceptable time is not limited, and can be 10 to 60 minutes before the planned entry time Ta1. For example, in the first embodiment, as shown in Fig. 3, the acceptable time Tc is set to 60 minutes before the planned entry time Ta1.

[0029] 2-6. Acceptance / rejection determination unit 46 The acceptance determination unit 46 shown in Fig. 2 determines whether or not the vehicle V1 can be accepted based on the arrival time Tb1, which is the time when the entrance side detection signal shown in Fig. 3 was received, and the acceptance possible time Tc. When the determination result of the acceptance determination unit 46 indicates that the vehicle is not acceptable, the above-mentioned entry / exit determination unit 41 does not determine the IN state, but when the result indicates that the vehicle is acceptable, it determines the IN state.

[0030] 2-7. Estimated Arrival Time Memory Unit 47 The estimated arrival time storage unit 47 shown in Fig. 2 stores the estimated arrival time. The estimated arrival time is a pre-estimated time when the vehicles V1 to V3 will arrive at the logistics center 10. The estimated arrival time can be set by learning based on the past planned arrival times and the times when the vehicles arrived at the logistics center 10. The estimated arrival time may be set for each vehicle.

[0031] 2-8. Arrival Delay Judgment Unit 48 The arrival delay determination unit 48 shown in Figure 2 determines whether the arrival of the vehicle is later than estimated based on whether the entry / exit determination unit 41 receives an entrance side detection signal by the estimated arrival time stored in the estimated arrival time memory unit 47.

[0032] 2-9. Arrival Delay Information Output Section 49 When the result of the determination by the arrival delay determination unit 48 indicates that the arrival of the vehicle is delayed, the arrival delay information output unit 49 outputs the arrival delay information. The arrival delay information can be displayed on the display unit 51. Based on the arrival delay information displayed on the display unit 51, the manager can confirm the delay with the driver of the vehicle, etc.

[0033] 2-10. Pass-through determination unit 50 The pass-through determination unit 50 calculates a stay time Tbp, which is the time from when the entrance / exit determination unit 41 receives the entrance side detection signal to when it receives the exit side detection signal. If the stay time Tbp is shorter than a predetermined reference time, it is determined that the state is a pass-through state, and if the stay time Tbp is not shorter than the predetermined reference time, it is determined that the state is not a pass-through state. The reference time for determining the pass-through state is not limited and can be set appropriately depending on the size of the logistics center 10. The reference time can be, for example, 5 to 10 minutes, and is set to 5 minutes in the first embodiment.

[0034] When the determination result of the pass-through determination unit 50 indicates a pass-through state, the above-mentioned entry / exit determination unit 41 discards the in state and out state of the vehicle determined to be in the pass-through state, and determines the vehicle to be in the in state when the entrance side detection signal is received again. This makes it possible for the vehicle to enter the logistics center 10 again and receive cargo after entering the logistics center 10 and exiting the logistics center 10 without receiving cargo, for example, when a parking lot is unavailable.

[0035] 3. Vehicle entry / exit management method using vehicle entry / exit management system 1 Next, a vehicle entry / exit management method by the vehicle entry / exit management system 1 will be described in detail. First, in step S1 shown in Fig. 4, the entry / exit determination unit 41 determines whether or not the entry side signal outputted when the entry side detector 21 receives a transmission signal from the transmitters 31 to 33 has been received. If it is determined that the entry side signal has not been received, the process proceeds to No in step S1, and in step S2, the arrival delay determination unit 48 determines whether or not the estimated arrival time stored in the estimated arrival time storage unit 47 has passed.

[0036] If the estimated arrival time has not passed, the process proceeds to No in step S2 and returns to step S1. On the other hand, if the estimated arrival time has passed, it is determined that the arrival of the vehicle is delayed from the estimated arrival time, and the process proceeds to Yes in step S2. Then, in step S3, the delay information is output by the arrival delay information output unit 49 and displayed on the display unit 51, and the process returns to step S1.

[0037] Moreover, if in step S1, entry / exit determination unit 41 determines that an entry side signal has been received, the process proceeds to Yes in step S1, and in step S4, acceptance determination unit 46 determines whether or not the acceptance time stored in acceptance time memory unit 45 has passed. If it is determined that the acceptance time has not passed, the process proceeds to No in step S4, and in step S5 it is determined that acceptance is not possible, so that entry / exit determination unit 41 does not determine that the in state, and the process returns to step S1.

[0038] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S4 that the acceptable time has passed, the process proceeds to Yes in step S4, and it is determined in step S6 that the vehicle is acceptable. Then, in step S7, the entry / exit determination unit 41 determines that the vehicle is in the IN state, and records the actual entry time in the result recording unit 52.

[0039] Thereafter, in step S8, the entrance delay determination unit 43 determines whether the actual entrance time is later than the planned entrance time stored in the planned time memory unit 42. If it is determined that the actual entrance time is later than the planned entrance time, the process proceeds to Yes in step S8, and in step S9, the entrance delay determination unit 43 determines that the actual entrance time is later than the planned entrance time. Then, the delay information output unit 44 outputs the delay information and displays it on the display unit 51.

[0040] Thereafter, in step S10, the entry / exit determination unit 41 determines whether or not the exit side signal output by the exit side detector 22 when it receives a transmission signal from the transmitters 31 to 33 has been received. If it is determined that the exit side signal has not been received, step S10 is carried out again. If it is determined that the exit side signal has been received, the process proceeds to Yes in step S10, and in step S11, the pass-through determination unit 50 determines whether or not the stay time Tbp is longer than the reference time for pass-through determination (five minutes in this embodiment 1).

[0041] Then, in step S11, if it is determined that the staying time Tbp is not longer than the reference time for pass-through determination, the process proceeds to No in step S11, and in step S13, the pass-through determination unit 50 determines that the vehicle is in a pass-through state. Then, in step S14, the entry / exit determination unit 41 discards the in-state and out-state of the vehicle, and steps S1 and onward are performed again.

[0042] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S11 that the staying time Tbp is longer than the reference time for pass-through determination, the process proceeds to Yes in step S11, and in step S12, the entry / exit determination unit 41 determines that the vehicle is in an out state, and records the actual exit time in the result recording unit 52. Then, the flow ends.

[0043] 4. Effects The effects of the vehicle entrance / exit management system 1 of the first embodiment will be described in detail below. According to the vehicle entrance / exit management system 1, by mounting transmitters 31-33 consisting of BLE beacons on the vehicles V1-V3, the entrance side detector 21 and the exit side detector 22 that detect signals transmitted from the transmitters 31-33 can be configured as mobile terminals or the like without requiring a large-scale configuration. In addition, BLE beacons have excellent detection accuracy. As a result, entrance / exit management of the vehicles V1-V3 can be performed with high accuracy using a simple configuration.

[0044] In the first embodiment, the entrance detector 21 is configured with a first portable terminal, the exit detector 22 is configured with a second portable terminal, and the entry / exit determination unit 41 is configured with a calculation device capable of wireless communication with the first portable terminal and the second portable terminal. As a result, since the entrance detector 21 and the exit detector 22 are configured with different portable terminals, it is possible to deal with logistics centers 10 of various sizes that exceed the reach of the BLE beacon.

[0045] Moreover, in the present embodiment 1, there are provided a planned time storage unit 42 in which planned entry times, which are the entry times of the vehicles V1 to V3 into the logistics center 10 planned in advance, an entry delay determination unit 43 which compares an actual entry time Tb1, which is the time determined by the entry / exit determination unit 41 to be in the IN state, with the planned entry time Ta1 to determine whether the actual entry time Tb1 is delayed from the planned entry time Ta1, and a delay information output unit 44 which outputs delay information when the determination result of the entry delay determination unit 43 indicates that the actual entry time Tb1 is delayed from the planned entry time Ta1. By outputting the delay information, the manager can easily grasp the delay when a delay occurs in the entry of the vehicles V1 to V3 into the logistics center 10.

[0046] In addition, in the first embodiment, an acceptable time storage unit 45 is provided that stores an acceptable time Tc, which is a time a predetermined time before the planned entry time Ta1, which is the entry time of the plurality of vehicles V1 to V3 into the logistics center 10, and an acceptance determination unit 46 that determines whether or not the vehicles V1 to V3 can be accepted based on the arrival time, which is the time when the entrance side detection signal is received, and the acceptable time Tc. The entry / exit determination unit 41 does not determine the in state when the determination result of the acceptance determination unit 46 indicates that the vehicles are not acceptable, and determines the in state when the determination result indicates that the vehicles are acceptable. As a result, the in state is not given to the vehicles V1 to V3 that arrive before the acceptable time, so that premature entry into the logistics center 10 can be restricted.

[0047] In the first embodiment, the entry / exit determination unit 41 is configured to, when receiving an exit side detection signal, discard the IN state and determine the through state without determining the OUT state if the stay time Tbp, which is the time from the time the entrance side detection signal was received to the time the exit side detection signal was received, is shorter than a predetermined reference time, and determine the IN state when the entrance side detection signal is received again. This allows the vehicles V1 to V3 that have passed through the logistics center 10 to re-enter and receive goods.

[0048] In addition, in the first embodiment, the system includes an estimated arrival time storage unit 47 that stores an estimated arrival time, which is a time when the vehicles V1 to V3 arrive at the logistics center 10, an arrival delay determination unit 48 that determines whether the arrival of the vehicles V1 to V3 is delayed from the estimated arrival time based on whether the entrance / exit determination unit 41 receives an entrance side detection signal by the estimated arrival time, and an arrival delay information output unit 49 that outputs arrival delay information when the determination result of the arrival delay determination unit 48 indicates that the arrival of the vehicles V1 to V3 is delayed. As a result, since a vehicle that has not arrived at the estimated arrival time may be late for the entrance time, it is possible to check with the driver of the vehicle before the entrance time by outputting the arrival delay information, or to prepare for a response in case the vehicle is delayed.

[0049] In the first embodiment, the estimated arrival time is set for each vehicle based on the past arrival times of each of the multiple vehicles. This makes it possible to set an optimal estimated arrival time for each vehicle.

[0050] Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the multiple bus stops 11-13 are located on the same floor in the logistics center 10, but instead, as a modified embodiment, multiple bus stops can be arranged on multiple floors, and an entrance detector 21 and an exit detector 22 for detecting the entry and exit of vehicles on each floor can be provided. In this case, the entry and exit of vehicles on each floor can be detected, and the entry and exit of vehicles can be accurately managed even in the logistics center 10 having multiple floors.

[0051] As described above, according to the present embodiment and the modified embodiment, it is possible to provide the vehicle entrance / exit management system 1 that can perform entrance / exit management of the vehicles V1 to V3 with high accuracy using a simple configuration.

[0052] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment and modified forms, and can be applied to various embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
