This invention relates to a toll road toll collection system that reads the information recorded on a vehicle's ticket, calculates and collects toll tolls for the vehicle.

Figure 1 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a conventional toll road toll collection system. In the figure, +11 indicates interchange A.

(not shown).

In addition to the above-mentioned vehicle type, this ticket (3) is printed with the date, hour, minute, interchange number, lane number, staff code, etc., and at the same time, a perforation or magnetic record is printed on the ticket issuing processing device (5). ).

When the car (6) travels on the toll road and reaches the exit booth (111) of Interchange B, the toll ticket (3) is handed over to the toll collector (hereinafter simply referred to as the collector) (12).
The collector (a) inserts the pass (3) into the toll collector machine a◆.

Show prices on . The collector α2 collects the fare displayed on the operator's ticket and the fare display device a″i).

The conventional system is configured as described above, and since it is not possible to record information on the ticket (3) that can identify a vehicle (6) other than the type of vehicle, the ticket <3) 75
(Even if the ticket is exchanged with another vehicle, the toll collection processing device αG will not be able to detect it, and the users who drive along the road may exchange the ticket (3) at a service area, etc.) The drawback was that even if you paid a small fee, you could not be accused of wrongdoing.

This invention was made in order to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional ones as described above, and it adds a voice recognition device to the system so that the car registration number (hereinafter simply referred to as car number) read out by the staff at the entrance booth can be read out. To provide a system capable of detecting the exchange of a toll ticket by determining whether the vehicle number recorded on the toll ticket and the vehicle number recorded on the toll ticket at an exit booth matches the actual vehicle number of the vehicle. It is an object.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

When the car (6) reaches the entrance booth +11 of Interchange A, the attendant (2) reads the car number of the car (6) as Nanno (-).
play) (61) Kara M, cut, microphone (
8), and input necessary information such as the type of car using the push button on the ticket issuing machine (4).

Then, the voice recognition device (9) recognizes the vehicle number based on the voice of the staff member (2) and sends a signal to the ticket issuing processing device (5). In addition to the vehicle type, date, hour, minute, interchange number, lane number, and attendant code when using the system, the vehicle number is printed and at the same time, punch-hole or magnetic recording is performed.

When the car (6) travels on the toll road and reaches the exit booth α of interchange B, the collector α2 stops the car (6),
Read the car number from the number brake (61),

The ticket (3) received from the driver is applied to the toll collection machine 04.

Then, the voice recognition device αS recognizes the car number from the voice of the collector αa, and sends a signal to the toll collection processing device αG. On the other hand, the toll collection processing unit 0 → reads the vehicle number 1 information recorded on the pass (3) and compares it with the vehicle number recognized by the voice recognition device (11. If the vehicle number matches -5) It is determined that there is no fraud, and the fare is displayed on the fare display αη as usual. If the car numbers do not match, it is determined that there is fraud, and an alarm etc. is sent.

In the above explanation, the method of recording information on the pass (3) is exemplified by perforation or magnetic recording, but it is not limited to these methods, and any recording for performing information processing may be used, such as a bar code. But that's fine. Another possible method is to recognize the information printed on the pass (3) as characters.

As described above, according to the present invention, the attendant reads out the car number at the entrance booth, the voice recognition device interprets this, the car number information is recorded on the pass ticket, and the collector reads it out at the exit booth. The received car number is read by a voice recognition device and compared with the car number recorded on the pass ticket to confirm a match, which has the effect of preventing fraudulent acts caused by exchanging passes.
