[Industrial application field]

The present invention comprises a teletext processing section equipped with a television broadcasting processing mechanism and a voting processing section, and converts a digital signal for teletext broadcasting from the teletext processing section to generate a computer system for the voting processing section. means for displaying the edited and processed results in the teletext processing section, and a keyboard (KB) or keypad (1) of the computer system of the voting processing section based on instructions from the voting processing section. '
1KP) relates to an at-home voting method using an at-home voting system terminal equipped with means for transmitting voting information to a telephone voting system.

In the totalizer system, such as the current voting ticket sales system, there are two ways to purchase voting tickets: a cash voting system in which betting tickets such as horse racing tickets are purchased at ticket sales counters inside or outside the venue, and a membership-based telephone voting system. .

Among these, the telephone voting system allows customers to collect information on horse racing, bicycle racing, etc. using newspapers, television, radio, etc., and based on the results of their own analysis, use their telephones to collect information on horse races, bicycle races, etc. Voting was done by keying procedures.

This telephone voting system can be roughly divided into CRT method,
There are two ARS methods. The CRT method is a method in which a subscriber calls the center to summon an operator, and the operator inputs information from a CRT terminal through conversation.The AR5 method is a voice response system in which the subscriber votes by phone while listening to the voice response. This is a method to do so.

In any case, since the voting means is a telephone and has low intelligence, there is no effective means to accumulate and process the collected information, and as mentioned above, there is no effective means to accumulate and process the collected information.
Even if inquiries are made to the general center of the voting ticket sales system, due to the limits of the database construction of the center system, the current situation is that inquiries are limited to horse races, velodrome conditions, weather conditions, and race cancellation information. However, there was a problem in that there was little information available for customers to vote on, resulting in poor service to customers.

On the other hand, by using the captain system, videotex system, teletext system, etc. that have recently begun to be put into practical use, we can provide the latest information on horse racing, bicycle racing, etc.
We are in a situation where we can quickly and accurately obtain information at any time.

The method of obtaining such information on horse racing, bicycle racing, etc. is that the organizer of the horse racing, bicycle racing, etc. sends information to Tomotsuri, and the customer downloads the sent information.
It is broadly classified into two-way communication, in which the customer and the organizer mutually exchange information.

Among downloadable information, value-added communication network (VAN),
In wired networks such as PC communications, if the number of data providers (so-called members) increases to hundreds of thousands in the future, the center equipment will become huge due to the concentration of traffic, resulting in huge equipment and operating costs. Become something. We also need to figure out how to best manage the collection of access charges.

However, even with this download type system, if information is obtained using wireless teletext broadcasting in which information is unilaterally distributed, there will be no problems such as data access charges and one-line usage charges, and it will be economical. Users can now obtain information on horse racing, bicycle racing, etc.

Additionally, if this information is stored on a computer equipped with a data processing function, it can be processed and displayed as the most effective data for voting, and can be used for horse racing, bicycle racing, etc. The burden on the center system on the organizer side can be significantly reduced.

[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a conventional telephone voting system.

As mentioned above, the methods of purchasing voting tickets in the current totalizator system include a cash voting system in which voting tickets are purchased at sales counters inside or outside the venue, and a membership-based telephone voting system.

With a cash voting system, there is little hope of increasing the number of ticket sales counters in stadiums more than currently.
The current situation is that construction is not easy due to considerations outside the site, such as residents' movements and local shopping streets.

In the telephone voting system 3 shown in this figure, the equipment and number of subscribers are steadily increasing year by year, but since the terminal is a telephone 7 and the two-way communication is by wire, one telephone voting system Limit the number of subscribers per system 3 (for example, in the ARS system mentioned above, 3000 people/system with a call time of 120 seconds per vote, CR
If the call time per vote is 60 seconds in the T system, the total number of people/system will be approximately 6,000 people, then the general center 4
There is a problem that the data processing at the terminals becomes too crowded, the service to customers deteriorates, and the operational costs increase.
There was a problem.

In view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, the present invention provides for a customer to, at home,
The purpose is to provide a method of voting using a home voting system terminal used in a home telephone voting system that can judge the results of races such as horse racing and bicycle racing and cast effective votes. .

[Means to solve the problem]

Alternatively, the video (D'', E'') 2j, k is displayed, and the horse number is input and voted based on the guide section information.

[Effect]

That is, according to the present invention, the teletext processing unit includes a teletext processing unit equipped with a television broadcast processing mechanism and a voting processing unit, and converts a digital signal for teletext broadcasting from the teletext processing unit to perform voting processing. means for displaying the edited and processed results in the computer system of the department, and a keyboard (KB) of the computer system of the voting processing section based on instructions from the voting processing section; In an at-home voting system using a terminal for an at-home voting system that is equipped with a means for transmitting voting information to the telephone voting system using a keypad (RKP), for example, when the operation mode is set to voting mode, the voting place name and release Classification (screen (A))
will be displayed, and when you select the polling place name and release category using the keypad (RKP) above, a screen (B) instructing you to enter your vote will appear.
will be displayed, so by entering the "formula" and "number", the voting processing unit 2 will be able to select "Otsuzu" and "Popular".
, and the voting input screen (B) is automatically displayed.

After checking the contents displayed on the voting input screen (B),
When you press the send key on the keypad (RKP) above,
Automatic dialing and connection to the center line are performed, the voted data is transferred, and when the data transfer is completed, the connected line is released.

Also, if the above operation mode is set to "10 votes display" mode,
The display location name and release category (screen (C)) are displayed. Here, when a display place name is input, a display content selection menu related to the entered voting base is displayed. For example, if "consecutive winning odds" is selected, a screen (D) of consecutive winning odds is displayed.

Therefore, when the user inputs the program number for which he or she wishes to vote while viewing the screen and following the program selection instructions, the color of the "section" of the program number on the screen changes, allowing the user to recognize that the vote has been accepted.

When the "vote" key is pressed when all group numbers have been input, the screen moves to the voting screen (B) mentioned above, and the voting is completed by inputting the investment amount for the group number just voted. Thereafter, by pressing the send key, the voting data is sent to the center.

Furthermore, when the operation mode is set to the inquiry mode, the balance, voting employment history, etc. stored in the voting processing section of the terminal for the at-home voting system can be viewed.

All the screen data necessary for these votes can be collected from teletext broadcasts. For example, horse racing programs are currently broadcast on the 1st Channel (CH) of the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK), and consecutive winning races (all races, venues)
In the hahe program, single and double tickets are broadcast on program B, and information such as weather, racetracks, cancellation of races, etc. is broadcast on program C. By selecting the necessary parts of this information and providing it to customers, it is possible to The problem of poor service quality can be resolved.

Also, in general, numbers with low payouts tend to be easy to hit (and numbers with high payouts tend to be difficult to hit).

Therefore, in order to reduce the risk by voting for a set number that will yield a decent payout, a method of voting for a set number that is likely to be a hit is used.

Therefore, at the customer's request, when selecting a program number and voting while looking at the Otsuzu data from the teletext broadcast,
Popular Beth) 10 Oh Soz Screens (D'.

By displaying E'), it is possible to vote with less risk, and the service quality for customers is further improved.

Also, if a customer invests money in horse racing, as mentioned above,
``Otsuzu'' accounts for the most weight, but the next most important factor is the horse's condition, such as body type.

Since the horse type is being broadcast on teletext, it may be displayed on the aforementioned Otsuzu screen (D, E) or the like.

In addition, the horse's fur, etc. can be determined by displaying the "Paddock" screen shown on TV or the video (D") as an alternative to the above Otsuzu screen (D, r:), for example, "Voting". By keying 10 display-1, the horse enters the superimpose state (E”), that is, by using the bottom part of the video as a guide, it is possible to input the horse number there while watching the video. , so-called superimpose voting becomes possible.

In this way, in the present invention, it is possible to vote by inputting the desired group number etc. while looking at the display screen, so the line hold time is greatly reduced and the number of subscribers who can connect to the telephone voting system is greatly increased. You can increase the number of employees. Matara2 Popular Top 10
Since voting is possible, operability is improved. Furthermore, since superimposed voting becomes possible, serviceability is improved.
