Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an introduction method, an introduction system, an article transfer method, and an article transfer system having a function of searching for a partner in a close range of action based on the use history of a transportation facility and a record of a use schedule.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There is an increasing number of people who disclose their personal abilities or possessed items on the Internet and provide them to necessary parties free of charge or for a fee.

[0003] From an unspecified number of requesting side and providing side, electronically introducing the other party according to their wishes,
There are auction sites on the Internet, bulletin boards by theme, and dating sites.

[0004] For example, a dating site has a function of registering an individual profile according to a residential area or a place of origin and searching for each of those areas. Further, at the auction site, the provider side can register the item for sale and the purchaser side can search for the item for purchase. In many cases, the item is delivered by mail.

In addition, there are websites having common hobbies, websites in which personal abilities and personal belongings are open to the public, and these websites have a function of searching for a referral partner according to a living area or a place to visit. There are some
The search for the residence area is based on narrowing down by the name of the city or the station.

[0006] In the case of goods trading, if a distant partner is introduced, it is not possible to directly meet and carry out the trading, and there is concern about reliability. Also, if the product itself is small or has a large capacity, the burden of shipping will be heavy.

[0007] In addition, if the object to be provided is to be provided by visiting the person while moving, such as with a hobby partner or daily life care, the feasibility of the service is low even if a distant partner is introduced.

Some conventional service sites have a function of narrowing down the residence of the other party by municipality, but when searching for a large number of local governments such as near their homes and workplaces, it is troublesome. It costs
There are places in the same municipality that are inconvenient for transportation, so searching by a municipality is not always convenient.

Further, in such a case, a search method according to a person's action range can be considered, but in the case of a person having a complicated action range, there is a problem that it takes time to input the action range.

Further, it takes a long time to use the mail to exchange articles with a partner who has the same action range but different time zones.

[0011]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to focus on the action range of both the client side requesting a service and the provider side capable of providing the requested service, and within the mutual action range and action schedule. It is to introduce the client provider within the range.

[0012] Another object of the present invention is to focus on the daily range of action of the client and the provider, and to introduce the other party to whom the service can be given and received by a direct interview.

Another object of the present invention is to save the trouble of inputting the action range.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a means for the rapid exchange of articles without a direct visit.

[0015]

[Means for Solving the Problem] Information on a service provided by a provider and information on a service requested by a requester are received, and the service provided by the provider is searched based on the requested service contents, The degree of overlap of the action ranges of both providers is calculated according to the usage status of the transportation facilities with the searched providers, and the partner with a high degree of overlap is introduced.

Further, the requester requesting the service is searched from the service contents provided by the provider, and the degree of overlap between the action ranges of the provider and the requested client is calculated according to the usage status of the transportation system. Introduce a person with a high degree of duplication.

As the usage status of the transportation facility, recorded data that the requesting party and the providing party have passed through the gate of the transportation facility by the transportation ticket to which the ID is assigned,
At least one or more of the regular ticket data of the transportation ticket and the reservation data recorded when the requester and the provider make a reservation for transportation.

Further, in the calculation of the duplication degree of the action range, the duplication degree according to the usage frequency of both is given to all or some of the sites in the action range of the requesting side or the providing side,
One or more bases are presented as suitable bases for the visit according to the order of the overlap frequency.

As a method of presenting information to the requesting side and the providing side, the display format of the station and the railroad is determined according to the degree of transportation use of both sides, and the map screen consisting of the base and the railroad is displayed together with the transportation use status. It is displayed and the request information and the offer information are presented to the providing side or the requesting side, respectively.

Further, the usage status of the transportation facility is recorded in the recording medium of the transportation ticket to which the requester and the provider have the ID.

[0021] Further, in order to quickly exchange the articles without conducting the face-to-face meetings, the article delivery mediums located at the optimal bases are provided to enable the article delivery and payment.

Further, this system may manage a plurality of transportation companies and a plurality of transportation means.

The transportation ticket management system 150 comprises a ticket gate management server 151 and a seat reservation server 153.

The ticket gate management server 151 manages data 155 of the passenger's fixed ticket. Commuter pass data 155
An example of is shown in FIG. The commuter pass data 155 is basically
Passenger ID 201, departure station 202, arrival station 203, valid period 2
04, a use start date 205, and a use end date 206, but depending on the commuter pass, it also has data such as a transit route and a transfer station, which are not shown.

The ticket gate management server 151 is connected to the ticket gates 157 at each station, so that passengers can check the ticket gates 1
The record passing through 57 is managed as a ticket gate use history 154.

Passenger ticket 158 is used by passengers
After passing, the ticket gate 157 transmits the passing data to the ticket gate management server. The structure of the passage data is shown in FIG.
Passage data is date of use 207, time of use 208, passenger ID
209, station 210, usage form 211 and payment amount 2
It consists of 12.

Further, the ticket gate management server 151 integrates the passage data shown in FIG. 3 to create ticket gate usage history data 154 outside the commuter pass section. Ticket gate usage history data 15
4 is shown in FIG. The ticket gate use history data 154 manages the use date 303, the departure station 304, the arrival station 305, the amount 306, etc. for each passenger ID 301.

The seat reservation server 153 accepts a passenger's travel reservation and manages the reservation data 156.

An example of the reservation data 156 is shown in FIG. The travel reservation is managed for each vehicle, but the view with the passenger ID 501 as a key has items of a use date 502, a boarding vehicle 503, a boarding section 504, and a seat 505.

The following is a detailed description of an embodiment in the case where there are a client and a provider who are seeking to buy or sell a particular product, according to the flow of FIG.

First, the provider registers the information of the sold product in the mediation server 103 by the provider side terminal 102 (step 8).
01), the intermediary server 103 that has received the data registration stores it in the request / provided service data 106 (step 80).
2).

The request / provided service data 106 stores data according to request / provided forms such as “sell”, “buy”, “recruitment of human resources”, “application for human resources”.

FIG. 7 shows an example of the request / provided service data 106 when the usage pattern is “sell”.

In the example of FIG. 7, the request / provided service data 106 includes a passenger ID 601, a category 602, and a product name 6.
03, function 604, desired price 605, comment 606,
It has items of an image 607 and a posting deadline 608.

The passenger ID 601 is the ticket gate use history data 154, the commuter ticket data 155, and the reservation data 156.
It is the same as, and uniquely determines the passenger.

The category 602 is set by the provider by selecting the requested / provided services from the types classified in advance. Although the category name is described here for explanation,
It is desirable to add a code to the category 602 in order to facilitate the search.

In addition, the product name 603 and the function details 60
4 or desired price 605, image data 607, etc.
If necessary, the comment 606 by the provider is registered. One provider may register a plurality of products. In addition, you may ask for a hobby partner or seek assistance for housework. In that case, the form of request / provision is “human resource recruitment”.

When a request for providing a service such as purchase of a specific article is made, the requester inputs and transmits the desired service from the request-side terminal 101 (step 803). As the input items, other keywords may be input based on the categories described in FIG. 7.

Mediation server 103 that received the service contents
Retrieves the service content suitable for the request from the accumulated request / provided service data 106 (step 804).
The search means is performed by matching the categories, for example. When the client inputs a keyword, the keyword may be narrowed down.

Next, the mediation server 103 matches the action range of the service content provider obtained by the service search with the action range of the requester (step 805). Prior to matching, the mediation server 103 creates station use frequency data 112 for each passenger from the ticket gate use history data, the commuter pass data 155 and the seat reservation data 156 (step 800).

The station use frequency data 112 is a score of stations used by passengers according to frequency. An example of score distribution is shown in FIG. The number of commuter pass departure / arrival stations recorded in commuter pass data 155 is 100, and there are 8 transfer stations.
0 points and passing stations are 10 points. In addition, from the ticket gate usage history data 154, refer to a boarding / alighting record outside the commuter pass section,
Points are given according to the frequency of use or the number of experiences.
In the example of FIG. 8, it is assumed that the frequently used stations are 50 points, the medium frequency stations are 30 points, and the less frequently used stations are 10 points. The frequency of use is judged based on the number of times it has been used in the past, or whether it is used once or more on a regular basis. Alternatively, it may be determined from the history of being used for transfer or only passing. Furthermore, points may be given to stations that have no boarding / alighting records and are close to the normal range of action.

How to give a specific score will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 4. The passenger with the passenger ID 0023894 is assigned to station A and station B according to the commuter pass data 155 in FIG.
Give 00 points. Ticket gate usage history data 154 of FIG.
Therefore, by frequently taking the section from the station B where the commuter ticket arrives to the station C, the score at the station C is 50 points. In this way, points are given to all the stations within the passenger's regular section and the stations that have experience in using outside the regular section. A large station or the like may have a higher score depending on the usage pattern.

Creation of frequency data (step 800)
After the service content registration (step 801), the registration may be performed for the registered passengers, or the service search (step 804) may be performed for the passengers who are determined to be able to provide the service. . Also, the mediation server 10
3 may be created periodically for all passengers at an appropriate timing, or may be created and updated frequently for passengers that are frequently used according to the frequency of use of the intermediary server. Also,
When the commuter pass data 155, the ticket gate use history data, and the reservation data 156 are changed, the management server of these data may transmit the change data to the intermediary server to instruct the re-creation.

An example of station use frequency data 112 for each passenger is shown in FIG. The matching (step 805) is performed using the station usage frequency data 112 of the requester and the provider.

Passenger A's score at station i is A (i), Passenger B's score is B (i), the action range overlap degree of Passenger A and Passenger B is S (A, B), and S (A, B) will be expressed by (Equation 1).

[0072]

[Equation 1]

Alternatively, considering that only one station is required for the visit, S (A, B) may be expressed by (Equation 2).

[0074]

[Equation 2]

The stations i in (Equation 1) and (Equation 2) are all stations managed by the ticket gate management server 151. The mediation server 103 ranks the providers in descending order of the degree of overlapping of the action ranges.

Next, the mediation server 103 presents the matching result to the request-side terminal 101.

FIG. 10 is an example of a screen displayed on the output device of the request-side terminal 101. Here, the providers are introduced according to the ranking made in the action range matching process (step 805). Clients are ordered by action range 731
By specifying the price order 732 (step 807), the mediation server 103 rearranges the data (step 808) and redisplays it.

The product name 733 is a product name showing the characteristics of the product in the category used for the search. This corresponds to the product name 603 in FIG. By instructing this (step 809), the comment 606 and the image 607 in FIG. 7 of the target product are displayed (step 810) and can be referred to.

The passenger ID 734 may be a nickname or a name as long as it uniquely represents the provider.

When the requester designates the passenger ID 734 with the input device (step 811), the age of the provider 73
5, passenger data such as gender 736, action range 737, etc. are displayed on the screen and can be referred to (step 812). The right half of FIG. 10 is an example of this display.

Age 735, sex 736, action range 737
It is assumed that such data is recorded in advance in the ticket gate management server, or can be referred by the provider recording the service content registration 104 and permitting the disclosure of the record.

Further, data such as past service transfer history and evaluations from past service transfer partners are stored in the mediation server 1.
03, and the screen may be displayed at the timing when the user ID 734 is instructed (step 811).

The action range 737 in FIG. 10 is a visualization of the regular data 155 of FIG. 2 and the ticket gate use history data 154 of FIG.

In FIG. 10, the route drawn with a thick line is the route range of the commuter pass owned by the provider of the user ID 0023894, and the other routes are displayed thicker as the usage history increases. By requesting the user ID 734 with the input device (step 811), the requester can switch and view the action range of the provider. This allows
The client can know the usual range of action of the provider and can use it to determine the place of visit.

For the price 735, the provider registers the service contents 1
It is the price registered at 04. Recommended visiting station 736,
The station with the highest degree of action range overlap determined by the action range matching 109 is displayed. When the client designates the recommended visitation station 736 on the display screen (step 813), a map of the station recorded in the mediation server 103 and a guide of a place suitable for the visit are displayed (step 814). Maps and guides may only show links to other sites on the Internet.

In addition, a narrow-down search is instructed (step 81
7) By doing so, the intermediary server 103 becomes the product type 73
No. 8 and recommended stations 739 are displayed to narrow down the providers (step 818).

The requester determines the other party (provider) with whom the service is to be exchanged, and instructs "contact" 740 on the screen (step 819). As a result, the mediation server mediates between the requester and the selected target person (step 82).
0) is performed. Specifically, the client inputs a message and sends it as an email to the provider, and vice versa. Upon receiving the contact (step 821), the provider contacts the client and establishes a contract. When the requester and the provider agree on the intention to establish a contract, the requester and the provider notify the intermediary server 103 of the establishment by, for example, an electronic mail (steps 822 and 823).

Upon receiving the contract establishment, the intermediary server 103, if necessary, requests / provides service data 106.
The corresponding data of is deleted (step 824).

After that, the transaction may proceed between the requester and the provider, and in the case of exchanging goods without a visit, the trading support locker described below may be used.

FIG. 11 shows the flow of processing from reservation to service transfer when using a trading support locker. When using the trading support locker, the client or the provider makes a reservation for the locker (step 841). Here, it is assumed that the client makes a reservation for the locker, but the provider may make the reservation. The locker server 115 receives the reservation (step 842) and stores it in the reservation data 129.

An example of the reservation data 129 is shown in FIG. The reservation data 129 is a reception number 4 given to the reservation reception order.
00, Applicant ID 40 that uniquely determines the reservation user ID
1. Recipient's ID 402 that uniquely determines the recipient (requester or provider) of the item, the application date 403, the station name 404 where the locker to be used is installed, the storage location 405, the start date and time 406 of the locker use The end date and time 407 of the locker use, the amount 408 of product purchase and sale, the usage fee payer 409 indicating whether the payer of the locker usage fee is the requester or the provider, and the applicant 401 (requester in this example). It comprises a financial institution 409 and an account number 410, and a financial institution 411 and an account number 412 of the other party 402 (provider in this example).

The locker server 115, which has accepted the reservation from the requester, reports the reservation acceptance to the provider by, for example, electronic mail (step 843). The report content is the content of the reservation data 129.

The provider makes the following authentication request (step 8).
Until step 44) is performed, the locker server 115 manages an empty storage and puts it in a standby state.

Upon receipt of the acceptance report, the provider delivers the merchandise to the locker storage at the reserved station when the use start date / time 406 has passed. At this time, the provider first makes an authentication request (step 844) to the locker. For example, when the boarding ticket 158 to which the ID is added in the authentication request is inserted into the card insertion slot 124, the locker server 115 determines whether the ID of the card is the service provider. If the card ID is not the provider, the process returns to step 845.
If the card ID is the provider, the locker server 115 unlocks the reserved storage (step 846).

Next, the provider delivers the merchandise to the storage and closes the door (step 847), and the sensor installed in the storage determines that the product has been delivered, and locks the key of the storage to lock the product. (Step 848) If the product is not delivered even if the key is unlocked, the process returns to step 845.

When the merchandise is delivered, the locker server 115 may inform the requester that the merchandise has been delivered, for example, by e-mail.

After the goods are delivered, the client makes an authentication request (step 849) to the locker at the target station. Also here, for example, the ticket 158 to which the ID is given is inserted into the card insertion slot 1
24, the locker server 115 inserts the I
It is determined whether D is the client, and if the client is the client, the storage is unlocked (step 850. If it is determined that the client is not the client, the process returns to step 848).

When the storage is unlocked, the client takes out the product and confirms it. As a result of the confirmation, when the purchase intention is determined, the product is taken out, and when the purchase is not performed, the product is re-delivered and the door is closed (step 851). Locker server 1
Reference numeral 15 locks the door of the storage (step 852), and when the product is detected by the sensor, the process returns to step 850.

If no merchandise is detected, that is, if the merchandise is sold, the settlement process (step 853) is performed.
