Hereinafter, the configuration of the parking share system of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the parking share system 1 of this embodiment includes an ID recording medium 11 and N store terminals (N is a natural number of 1 or more) 12-1, ..., 12-n, ..., 12-. It is configured to include N (collectively referred to as a store terminal 12 when these are not distinguished) and a parking share server 13. The constituent requirements and terms are defined below.

<ID recording medium 11>
The ID recording medium 11 is a general medium for recording an ID, which will be described later. The ID recording medium 11 may be paper on which the ID itself, the barcode information of the ID, the QR code information (registered trademark) of the ID, etc. are printed, or may be a magnetic stripe card or an IC card on which the ID is recorded. It may be a smartphone, a tablet, or a smart watch on which an ID is recorded. It is assumed that each user always possesses and carries the ID recording medium 11.

≪ID≫
The ID is identification information issued in association with the reservation when executing the procedure for reserving the vehicle interior to the parking share server 13 described later. This ID is used for associating various types of information described later.

<Store terminal 12>
The store terminal 12 is a terminal managed by the store. As shown in FIG. 2A, the store terminal 12 may be, for example, a computer 12c. Further, an aggregate of hardware including the ID communication device 12a, the cash register 12b, and the computer 12c may be called a store terminal 12, and one including a part or all the functions of the ID communication device 12a, the cash register 12b, and the computer 12c. The hardware (for example, a tablet terminal) may be referred to as a store terminal 12. As shown in FIG. 2B, the ID communication device 12a may be replaced with the printing machine 12d depending on the case, or the printing machine 12d may be added to the configuration of FIG. 2A.

It is assumed that each store has at least one corresponding store terminal 12. In the following, a case where there are a total of N store terminals, one for each of the N stores, will be described.

≪ID communication device 12a≫
As described above, when the ID recording medium 11 is a medium that can be read and written by hardware such as a smartphone, a tablet, a magnetic stripe card, and an IC card, the ID is read from the ID recording medium 11 and the ID is written on the ID recording medium. An ID communication device 12a, which is a device (transmitting), is required.

≪Printing machine 12d≫
As described above, when the ID recording medium 11 is a paper medium, a printing machine 12d, which is hardware for printing the ID recording medium 11, may be required. For example, when the ID recording medium 11 is realized by a paper medium on which information readable by hardware such as a QR code or a bar code is printed, both the ID communication device 12a and the printing machine 12d described above are required. On the other hand, when the ID is printed on the ID recording medium 11 as an alphanumeric string and the ID is manually input by the employee 8, the ID communication device 12a can be omitted and only the printing machine 12d can be used. .. In this case, when the employee 8 or the like writes down the alphanumeric character string presented as the ID by hand on a piece of paper or the like and then hands the piece of paper to the user 9, the printing machine 12d can also be omitted.

<Parking share server 13>
The parking sharing server 13 is a server managed by a company or the like that provides the parking lot sharing service described above. The parking share server 13 mainly communicates with the store terminal 12, but may also communicate with the ID recording medium 11 only when the ID recording medium 11 is a communicable terminal. This will be described later.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the store terminal 12 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the figure, the store terminal 12 includes a storage unit 120, a reservation information transmission unit 121, an ID reception unit 122, an ID output unit 123, a parking start information transmission unit 124, and a discount information transmission unit 125. It includes a parking end information transmitting unit 126, a payment information receiving unit 127, and a payment executing unit 128.

Hereinafter, the operation of each configuration requirement will be described with reference to FIG.

[Storage 120]
The storage unit 120 is a storage area for storing various types of data received, transmitted, and generated.

[Reservation information transmission unit 121]
In this embodiment, it is assumed that the user 9 calls the store in advance and informs that he / she wants to come to the store by car, and the employee 8 who receives the call provides the parking lot sharing service from the store terminal 12. It is assumed that the user 9 reserves a parking lot by referring to a site or an application and following instructions presented by the web site or the application. For example, the employee 8 browses the map for providing the service displayed on the web site or the like, searches for the car room provided for the parking lot sharing service near the store, and specifies the searched car room. Then, the reservation information is generated by inputting the scheduled start time of use.

When the reservation information is generated, the reservation information transmission unit 121 transmits the reservation information to the parking share server 13 (S121). The reservation information transmission unit 121 stores the transmitted reservation information in the storage unit 120.

The user 9 may perform the above-mentioned procedure executed by the employee 8. In this case, the user 9 does not need to contact the store by telephone in advance. The user 9 will generate reservation information by using a web site or an application that provides a parking lot sharing service through his / her own smartphone or PC. In this case, the reservation information transmission unit 121, the ID reception unit 122, and the ID output unit 123, which will be described later, can be omitted from the store terminal 12.

[ID receiver 122]
Step S122 is executed in conjunction with step S121. That is, the ID receiving unit 122 receives the ID, which is the identification information corresponding to the reservation information, from the parking share server 13 (S122). This ID may be received separately from the information that the reservation has been confirmed, or may be received at the same time as the information that the reservation has been confirmed. The ID receiving unit 122 stores the received ID in the storage unit 120.

[ID output unit 123]
If there is an ID output command, the ID output unit 123 outputs the corresponding ID (S123). The case where there is an ID output command is typically a case where an employee 8 or the like operates a store terminal 12 to generate an ID output command. For example, it is conceivable that the user 9 who has reserved the store by telephone actually visits the store and requests the employee 8 to issue an ID.

The output of the ID is performed by various methods. For example, when the ID recording medium 11 is a paper medium, the output of the ID corresponds to printing on the paper medium. Alternatively, when the employee 8 writes the ID given by an alphanumeric string or the like on a piece of paper or the like, the output of the ID corresponds to the display on the display unit (for example, the display) of the store terminal 12. Alternatively, when the ID recording medium 11 is a smartphone, the output of the ID corresponds to the output of a short-range wireless communication signal or the like from the ID communication device 12a.

[Parking start information transmitter 124]
When there is parking start information indicating the start of parking in the vehicle compartment, the parking start information transmission unit 124 transmits the parking start information together with the corresponding ID to the parking share server 13 (S124). The parking start information transmission unit 124 stores the transmitted parking start information and ID in the storage unit 120.

The case where there is parking start information is typically a case where an employee 8 or the like operates a store terminal 12 to generate parking start information. For example, when the user 9 stores his / her car in the reserved cabin, visits the store, and informs the employee 8 that his / her car has already been stored in the designated cabin, the employee 8 Will operate the store terminal 12 to generate parking start information.

Since the above procedure depends on the self-report of the user 9, there may be a case where the user 9 illegally uses the procedure. As a typical case, the self-reporting of the user 9 may be delayed, or the self-reporting of the user 9 may be neglected.

To prevent this, a web camera may be added to the system. For example, we decided to install a web camera near the passenger compartment provided for the parking lot sharing service and continue to shoot the current state of the passenger compartment with the web camera, and view the shot video in real time on the Internet. The system may be configured to be possible. In this case, the employee 8 may browse the video corresponding to the reserved cabin, visually confirm that the car of the user 9 is parked, and operate the store terminal 12 to generate the parking start information. ..

Alternatively, a simple sensor or beacon may be installed in the passenger compartment provided for the parking lot sharing service, and the system may be configured so that the fullness status of the passenger compartment can be viewed in real time on the Internet. .. In this case as well, as in the above case, the employee 8 may visually check the availability of the reserved passenger compartment and operate the store terminal 12 to generate parking start information. In addition to the above, measures such as imposing a penalty on the use of this service on the user 9 who has been found to be illegally used can be considered.

The step S124 may be executed by the smartphone, tablet terminal, or the like of the user 9. That is, the user 9 parks his / her own car in the reserved cabin and then operates his / her own smartphone or tablet terminal to generate parking start information. The smartphone or tablet terminal of the user 9 transmits the parking start information to the parking server 13 (S124).

[Discount information transmitter 125]
The discount information transmission unit 125 transmits the discount information together with the corresponding ID to the parking share server 13 when there is discount information which is information on the discount of the parking fee in the vehicle compartment (S125). The discount information transmission unit 125 stores the transmitted discount information and ID in the storage unit 120.

The case where there is discount information is typically a case where an employee 8 or the like operates a store terminal 12 to generate discount information. For example, it is assumed as a rule in advance that the parking fee is discounted according to the amount of money used by the user 9 in the store. For example, a rule for discounting the parking fee may be added only when the user 9 visits the store. In addition, an upper limit of the discount amount may be set. The rules are arbitrary.

In this case, when the user 9 visits the store, makes a purchase at the store for a predetermined amount of money, eats / drinks, or receives a service, the parking lot is discounted based on the above rules. The employee 8 inputs and generates discount information in the store terminal 12 based on the above rule when accounting for the user 9.

[Parking end information transmitter 126]
When there is parking end information indicating the end of parking in the vehicle compartment, the parking end information transmitting unit 126 transmits the parking end information together with the corresponding ID to the parking share server 13 (S126). The parking end information transmission unit 126 stores the transmitted parking end information and ID in the storage unit 120.

The case where there is parking end information is typically a case where an employee 8 or the like operates a store terminal 12 to generate parking end information. For example, when the user 9 leaves the store and then informs the employee 8 that he / she will leave the store without visiting another store, the employee 8 operates the store terminal 12 to generate parking end information. Will be done.

Since the above procedure depends on the self-report of the user 9, there may be a case where the user 9 illegally uses the procedure as described above. As a typical case, it is conceivable that the user 9 does not leave the garage as declared and continues to park.

In order to prevent this, a web camera, a sensor, a beacon, or the like may be installed in the system as described above to check the delivery status of the user 9. Similar to the above, a penalty regarding the use of this service may be imposed on the user 9 who is found to have illegally used the service.

The step S126 may be executed by the smartphone, tablet terminal, or the like of the user 9. In this case, when leaving the car, the user 9 operates his / her own smartphone or tablet terminal by self-report to generate parking end information. The smartphone or tablet terminal of the user 9 transmits the parking end information to the parking server 13 (S126).

[Payment information receiver 127]
If there is payment information, the payment information receiving unit 127 receives the payment information from the parking share server 13 (S127). The payment information is information related to the payment of the parking fee in the vehicle compartment. The payment information is information generated by the parking share server 13 based on the parking start information, the discount information, and the parking end information. Specifically, the payment information includes information that the store terminal 12 that has transmitted the discount information is charged with the amount corresponding to the transmitted discount information, and the store terminal 12 that has transmitted the parking end information. It includes information to the effect that the remaining amount after deducting all the amounts corresponding to the discount information transmitted by the other store terminal 12 from the parking fee is charged. A specific example of generating payment information will be described later.

[Payment Execution Unit 128]
The payment execution unit 128 executes payment in conjunction with the payment execution unit 139 of the parking share server 13, which will be described later, according to the payment information received in step S127 (S128). The settlement execution unit 128 stores the execution result of the settlement and the like in the storage unit 120. As described above, since the store terminal 12 that has transmitted the discount information is charged the amount corresponding to the discount information in this store (hereinafter referred to as the discount amount), the corresponding store terminal 12 performs the settlement processing of the discount amount. Will do. Therefore, the discount amount will be borne by the store. Further, as described above, the store terminal 12 that has transmitted the parking end information is charged with the remaining amount obtained by subtracting the discount amount transmitted by the other store terminal 12 from the parking fee, but this is not always the case. , It does not mean that the remaining amount will be borne by the store. For example, in a store in charge of transmitting parking end information, if the employee 8 charges the user 9 for the remaining amount after deducting all the amounts corresponding to the discount information in all the stores including this store, the store side The burden is practically only the discount amount at this store.

An execution example of settlement will be described using the specific examples in the table below.

For example, when the parking fee for a user 9 is 2000 yen in total, the parking fee for the user 9 is 12-1 to 300 yen for store terminals, 12-2 to 300 yen for store terminals, and 12-3 to 500 for store terminals. It is assumed that the yen discount information is transmitted to the parking share server 13 respectively. Further, it is assumed that the parking end information is transmitted from the store terminal 12-3 for the user 9.

In this case, the store terminals 12-1 and 12-2 that have transmitted the discount information of 300 yen receive the payment information including the information that the amount corresponding to the discount information (= 300 yen) is charged. The breakdown of the billed amount is 300 yen for the store and 0 yen for the user. On the other hand, the store terminal 12-3 that has transmitted the parking end information is the remaining amount (2000 yen) obtained by subtracting all the amounts corresponding to the discount information transmitted by the other store terminals 12-1 and 12-2 from the parking fee (2000 yen). Receive payment information including information to charge 2000 yen-300 yen x 2 = 1400 yen). The breakdown of this billing amount is that the store side burden is 500 yen (corresponding to the discount amount on the store terminal 12-3) and the user burden is 900 yen (from the parking fee to the store terminals 12-1, 12-2, 12-). The remaining amount after deducting all the discount amounts in 3).

Hereinafter, the configuration of the parking share server 13 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the figure, the parking share server 13 includes a storage unit 130, a reservation information receiving unit 131, an ID generating unit 132, an ID transmitting unit 133, a parking start information receiving unit 134, and a discount information receiving unit 135. , The parking end information receiving unit 136, the payment information generating unit 137, the payment information transmitting unit 138, and the payment executing unit 139 are included.

Hereinafter, the operation of each configuration requirement will be described with reference to FIG. Since most of the operations of each configuration requirement of the parking share server 13 correspond to the operation of each configuration requirement of the store terminal 12, the description is omitted as necessary.
