Description

Parking lot management system

The present invention relates to a parking management system, and more particularly to a parking management system that allows for uninterrupted automatic parking of the parking lot to facilitate customer convenience and to control each parking lot at a distance for stable integrated operation with minimal manpower. will be.

In general, in the conventional parking management system, the parking ticket of the paper material is recorded when entering the parking lot, and at the time of leaving the parking lot, the cashier of the settlement center is presented with the parking ticket from the driver and corresponds to the parking time according to the entering time recorded on the parking ticket. Parking fees are collected directly in cash.

However, the conventional method records the parking time on the parking ticket and calculates the parking fee based on the recorded parking time. Therefore, if the parking ticket is lost or damaged, there is no alternative to prove the parking time of the vehicle. There is a problem that you have to pay an unfair parking fee.

In addition, in the related art, there is a problem that the parking ticket of paper material is not only relatively high, but also can be used only once, so that the used parking ticket is wasted, resulting in waste of resources.

In addition, in the past, a device for processing various electronic money such as a credit card is not installed, so the parking fee must be paid in cash, so if the user has no cash and only electronic money, the user may have difficulty. In the case of having a high right, there is a problem that it is difficult for the user to exchange.

In addition, in the related art, since a cashier must always be arranged at an exchange office because of relying on such cash payment, there is a problem in that the labor cost increases and the parking lot operating cost increases.

The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, an object of the present invention is to manage the entrance and exit of the vehicle using the unique identification information of the electronic money and to make the parking fee unattended by using the electronic money unmanned The present invention provides a parking management system for efficiently providing the maximum convenience for the customer while reducing the operating cost while providing the maximum convenience for the user.

The auxiliary parking controller 201 transmits the vehicle number and the vehicle image photograph to the main parking controller 100, and the main parking controller 100 stores the database 101 in the database 101. Accordingly, the database 101 stores the vehicle number and vehicle image picture when entering the vehicle and the vehicle number and vehicle image picture when leaving the vehicle, so that the driver uses such information when the electronic money is lost or the electronic money is damaged. Parking fee can be charged.

In addition, when the driver stops the vehicle in front of the card terminal 223 and then touches the electronic money with the read portion provided in the card terminal 223, the card terminal 223 reads the unique identification information of the electronic money, and reads the unique identification information. And the departure time is transmitted to the auxiliary parking controller 201. The auxiliary parking controller 201 transmits the unique identification information to the main parking controller 100, and the main parking controller 100 stores the unique identification information and the departure time in the database 101 and then based on the unique identification information. Search for the entry time and the light vehicle of the matching vehicle. When the search is made, the parking fee is determined based on the entrance time, the departure time, and whether the vehicle is light, and the determined parking fee is transmitted to the card terminal 223 through the auxiliary parking controller 201 and displayed.

The card terminal 223 displays the parking fee and performs processing for receiving the parking fee from the electronic money.

If the balance of the electronic money is not sufficient, this is displayed on the card terminal 223. In this case, when the electronic money is a traffic card, the parking fee may be paid after charging a predetermined amount through the traffic card charger 224 installed near the card terminal 223.

When the payment for the parking fee has been processed normally, the auxiliary parking controller 201 opens the exit breaker 225 to allow the vehicle to leave the outside. When the vehicle leaves the outside, the exit vehicle passage detection sensor 226 detects this, and the secondary parking controller 226 closes the breaker 225 according to the vehicle passage information.

In the above description, in the case of a traffic card, the parking fee is discounted depending on whether the vehicle is light, but the discounted parking fee is applied to the credit card according to the parking fee discount contract with a specific credit card.

As described in detail above, the present invention can minimize the management manpower by automating the parking management system has an effect that can significantly reduce the operating cost.

In addition, the present invention has the effect of preventing the risk of accidents due to cash management and storage by allowing to collect the parking fee using electronic money instead of cash.

In addition, the present invention in accordance with the parking rate discount contract between the parking management company and credit card companies national merit, handicapped. If the other discount recipients pay the parking fee by credit card, the parking fee can be discounted.

In addition, the present invention is processed by the parking information according to the entry and exit of the parking lot can be displayed in real time whether or not the parking lot of the parking lot on the road information display board on the road near the parking lot has the effect that can provide help in using the parking lot. .
