[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to an access control device at a cash corner of a financial institution such as a bank, and particularly in a cash corner that can be used until midnight, by restricting a person other than a legitimate user from entering the cash corner, thereby providing a safe space for the user. And a device for restricting access to a cash corner.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the past, cash corners of financial institutions, such as banks, typically had business hours from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm. During business hours, anyone was free to enter and leave the cash corner.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, in recent years, the business hours of cash corners have been extended as part of service improvement, and cash corners that are open until midnight or that are open 24 hours a day have emerged. If the business hours of the cash corner were the same as before, the number of users of the cash corner was large and the number of people around it was large, so it was possible to use the cash corner relatively safely. However, if business hours are extended, cash corner users may be involved in a crime at midnight or early morning due to the small number of users at the cash corner and the lack of traffic around them. is there. In particular, the crime rate increases late at night, so it is necessary to secure a safe space for cash corner users.

[0004] In addition, as the business hours are extended, a problem has arisen that a vagrant person, a drunk person, and the like enter the cash corner and sit down. If a vagrant or a drunk person enters the cash corner, it may cause trouble with the legitimate user or may cause discomfort to the legitimate user. It is necessary to restrict access to the Internet so that legitimate users can use it comfortably.

[0005]

【Purpose】

 The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problem, and its purpose is to restrict a person other than a legitimate user from entering a cash corner, thereby ensuring that a legitimate user is safe and comfortable. The purpose is to provide a usable cache corner.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A card reader device for reading a user's cash card will be installed outside the cash corner entrance and exit of financial institutions such as banks. When restricting access to the cache corner, keep the entrance and exit of the cache corner closed so that they cannot enter the cache corner. A person who intends to use the cash corner in the closed state reads the cash card into the card reader section of the card reader device. The collation means of the card reader device, among the data of the cash card read by the card reader unit, identifies information for identifying a financial institution such as a bank, and information for identifying a previously stored financial institution capable of using a cash corner. Verification is performed, and if they match, a match signal is output to the control unit. The control unit of the control device controls the cache corner entrance / exit to be in an open-closed state where the entrance can be entered by inputting the coincidence signal, so that a legitimate user can enter the cache corner.

In addition, an emergency push button is provided outside the entrance / exit of the cash corner, and when an emergency occurs in the cash corner, an emergency signal is output to the control unit of the control device by operating the emergency push button, and the control unit of the control device outputs the emergency signal. A signal is input to make the cache corner entrance / exit possible to enter the closed release state.

[0008]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Fig. 1 shows an overview of a cache corner provided with a device for restricting access to the cache corner according to the present invention. A CD machine / ATM machine 2 is installed in the cash corner 1, and an automatic door 3 is provided at the entrance. Outside and inside the automatic door 3, there are provided human body detection sensors 4 and 5 for detecting a person approaching the automatic door. A card reader 6 is provided near the outside of the automatic door 3 so as to read information on a cash card held by a user of the cash corner, and an emergency push button 7 is provided beside the card reader. Different business hours are set for each cash corner in consideration of regional characteristics, but the following description assumes that the business hours are within the business hours of each cash corner.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the cache corner access control device according to the present invention. In FIG. 2, an automatic door 31 is used as the closing means 30. A human body detection sensor 32 is provided outside the automatic door 31 and a human body detection sensor 33 is provided inside the automatic door 31. When the presence of a person approaching the automatic door 31 is detected, a detection signal is sent to the automatic door control device. 34. When a detection signal is input from the human body detection sensor 32 or the human body detection sensor 33, the automatic door control device 34 controls to open the automatic door 31.

The card reader device 20 is provided near the outside of the automatic door 31 and includes a card reader unit 21, a collation target storage unit 22, an available time storage unit 23, and a collation unit 24. The card reader 21 reads the information of the cash card possessed by the cash corner user, and sends the read information to the collating means 24. The collation target storage means 22 stores a financial institution code for identifying a financial institution such as a bank which has issued a cash card usable in the cash corner. The available time storage means 23 stores the available time of the cash corner corresponding to the financial institution code stored in the comparison target storage means 22. The collating means 24 collates the information indicating the financial institution code in the information of the cash card read by the card reader section 21 with the financial institution code stored in the collation target storage means 22 and, if the two match, Transmits a coincidence signal to the control unit 13.

The schedule storage means 11 and the operation mode setting means 12 are means for switching whether or not the card reader 20 needs to perform card verification in order to open the automatic door 31. The schedule storage unit 11 and the operation mode setting unit 12 may cause the card reader 20 to perform the card collation during a time period when the cache corner is frequently used, such as during the daytime. This is a means to ensure that the card is verified only during the time of the night, for example, when security must be ensured. The schedule storage unit 11 stores a time period during which card collation is required to open the automatic door 31. Further, the operation mode setting means 12 switches between a normal mode which does not require card collation and a collation mode which requires card collation based on the contents stored in the schedule storage means 11. When the operation mode setting means 12 is in the normal mode, when a person approaching the automatic door 31 is detected by the human body detection sensors 32 and 33, a detection signal is sent to the automatic door control device 34 to open the automatic door 31. . On the other hand, when the operation mode setting means 12 is in the verification mode, the control unit 13 controls the automatic door control device 34 and inputs the data to the automatic door control device 34 from the human body detection sensor 32 provided outside the automatic door 31. Disable the detected signal. At this time, even if there is a person who wants to enter the cash corner, the automatic door 31 is not opened because the detection signal output from the human body detection sensor 32 is invalidated.

A person who intends to exit the cash corner cannot use the automatic door 31 when approaching the automatic door 31 because the detection signal output from the human body detection sensor 33 provided inside the automatic door 31 is valid. Is released and can exit.

When the operation mode setting means 12 is in the verification mode, a person who intends to use the cash corner causes the card reader unit 21 of the card reader device 20 to read the cash card and performs verification using the cash card. As a result of the collation, it is determined that the cash card is usable in the cash corner, and when a coincidence signal is input from the collation means 24 of the card reader device 20 to the control unit 13, the control unit 13 operates the automatic door 31 for a predetermined time. The detection signal input to the automatic door control device 34 from the human body detection sensor 32 provided outside is validated. During this time, when the human body detection sensor 32 provided outside the automatic door 31 detects the presence of a person, the automatic door 31 is opened, so that the user can enter the cash corner.

In the above case, when a matching signal is input from the matching unit 24 of the card reader device 20 to the control unit 13, the control unit 13 detects a human body provided outside the automatic door 31 for a predetermined time. If the detection signal input from the sensor 32 to the automatic door control device 34 is made valid, it may be difficult for the user to recognize whether or not the verification with the cash card has been performed normally. Therefore, when a coincidence signal is input to the control unit 13, an opening signal for opening the automatic door 31 may be sent to the automatic door control device 34 to open the automatic door 31 for a predetermined time. By opening the automatic door 31 when the coincidence signal is input to the control unit 13, it is possible for the user to know that the verification with the cash card has been performed normally, and even for an unfamiliar user, the smoothness can be obtained. You can enter the room at the cash corner.

When the operation mode setting unit 12 is in the normal mode, a message urging the card reader device 20 to perform the collation may be sent so that even an unskilled user can easily use it. Further, a display means is provided in the card reader device 20 to display a message to open the automatic door 31 when the collation by the cash card is normally performed, or the data is not normally read from the cash card. In such a case, a message prompting re-operation may be displayed, or a message notifying that the card cannot be used if the cash card cannot be used in the cache corner as a result of the verification using the cash card may be displayed.

The above description is for the case where the entrance of the cash corner is constituted by an automatic door, but the case where the entrance of the cache corner is constituted by a door which is locked by an electric lock will be described. In this case, FIG. 3 is a block diagram. The description of the same parts as those described above will be omitted. An electric lock 36 is provided at the entrance door 35 of the cash corner, and locks and unlocks the entrance door 35 according to a lock signal and an unlock signal input from the control unit 13 to the electric lock control device 37. The electric lock 36 is kept unlocked during the time when the cash corner does not require card verification during business hours, and the electric lock 36 is locked during the time when card verification is required and outside the business hours of the cash corner. To keep. When the operation mode setting unit 12 is in the normal mode, the control unit 13 of the control device 10 sends an unlocking signal to the electric lock control device 37 to control the electric lock 36 of the entrance door 35 to be in the unlocked state. On the other hand, when the operation mode setting means 12 is in the verification mode, a lock signal is sent to the electric lock control device 37 to control the electric lock 36 of the entrance door 35 to be kept in a locked state. In addition, as a result of the collation in the card reader device 20, the control unit 13 of the control device 10 sends an unlock signal to the electric lock control device 37 when a coincidence signal is input from the collation means 24 of the card reader device 20. The electric lock 36 of the entrance door 35 is controlled to be temporarily unlocked. The electric lock control device 37 unlocks the electric lock 36 of the entrance door 35 when the unlock signal is input from the control unit 13, and then, when the user enters the cash corner from the entrance door 35 and the entrance door 35 is closed. The electric lock 36 is locked. When the door 35 is not opened and closed for a predetermined time after the electric lock 36 of the door 35 is unlocked, the electric lock 36 is locked.

In the above case, when the user intends to leave the inside of the cash corner, the electric lock 36 is mechanically unlocked by turning the thumb turn, or the door knob of the entrance door 35 is turned from the inside of the cache corner. There are known techniques for unlocking the electric lock 36 only by using the known technique, and the user may be made to leave the cash corner using the known techniques. Alternatively, an exit push button may be provided near the entrance door 35, and control may be performed such that the electric lock 36 of the entrance door 35 is temporarily unlocked when the push button is operated.

In the above configuration, among the units constituting the card reader device 20, the collation target storage unit 22, the available time storage unit 23, and the collation unit 24 may be provided in the control device 10. In this case, the data of the cash card read by the card reader unit 21 may be transmitted to the matching unit 24. In addition, in place of the human body detection sensors 32 and 33 provided outside and inside the automatic door 31, touch-type automatic door open switches are provided inside and outside the automatic door, and when the automatic door open switch is operated. , A detection signal may be output to the automatic door control device 34.

By the way, if the closing means is switched to the closed release state only by checking with a cash card, when a user falls down suddenly in a cash corner, a nearby person can use the cash available in the cash corner. If you do not have a card, you cannot enter the cash corner and you cannot rescue the user. Similarly, police officers who are involved in the case cannot enter the cash corner unless they have a cash card. Therefore, an emergency push button 40 is provided outside the entrance and exit of the cash corner, and by operating the emergency push button 40, the closing means 30 is switched to the closed release state, so that when an emergency occurs in the cache corner, it is possible to cope with the situation. Specifically, by operating the emergency push button 40, an emergency signal is transmitted from the emergency push button 40 to the control unit 13 of the control device 10. When the emergency signal is input, the control unit 13 of the control device 10 transmits the emergency signal to the automatic door control device 34. Is controlled to make the input of the human body detection sensor 32 valid, or an unlock signal is sent to the electric lock control device 37 of the door 35 to unlock the electric lock 36 of the door 35. When the emergency push button 40 is operated, a signal indicating the occurrence of an abnormality is input to a security system provided at a cash corner (not shown), and the occurrence of an abnormality is notified to a remote monitoring center via the security system. It may be. By adding the above configuration, when an abnormal situation occurs in the cash corner, the emergency push button can be operated to enter the cash corner.

FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 are flowcharts showing an outline of a series of operations of the access control device at the cache corner.

The flowchart in FIG. 4 shows the control of the closing means by the control unit 13. The control unit 13 determines whether or not the operation mode setting unit 12 is in the collation mode (S1). If the operation mode setting unit 12 is in the collation mode, the control unit 13 controls the automatic door control device 34 to set a human body provided outside the automatic door 31 1. The detection signal from the detection sensor 32 is invalidated, or the electric lock control device 37 is controlled to lock the electric lock 36 of the entrance door 35 to bring the closing means 30 into the closed state (S2). Thereafter, when the coincidence signal output from the matching means 24 of the card reader device 20 is input to the control unit 13 (S3), or when the emergency signal output from the emergency push button 40 is input to the control unit 13 (S4), the control is started. The unit 13 controls the automatic door control device 34 to make the detection signal from the human body detection sensor 32 provided outside the automatic door 31 valid for a predetermined time, or controls the electric lock control device 37 to control the entrance door. The electric lock 36 of 35 is temporarily unlocked to bring the closing means 30 into the closed release state (S5).

The flowchart of FIG. 5 shows the verification of a cash card in the card reader 20. When the cash card is read in the card reader section 21 of the card reader device 20 (S11), the financial institution code is determined from the data of the read cash card (S12). Thereafter, the matching means 24 checks the determined financial institution code with the financial institution code stored in the matching target storage means 22 (S13), and if they match, further stores the available time storage means 23. The available time is compared with the determined available time (S14), and if it is the available time, a coincidence signal is output to the control unit 13 (S15).

The collation in the card reader device 20 will be described in detail. In the information read from the cash card, it is determined whether or not the cash card can use the cash corner based on the financial institution code for identifying the financial institution.

For example, in a cash corner of a bank indicated by a financial institution code 1234, if only a cash card issued by the bank can be used, the collation target storage unit 22 stores only the financial institution code 1234. The matching means 24 checks whether or not the financial institution code of the read cash card is 1234 stored in the matching object storage means 22, and outputs a match signal to the control unit 13 when they match.

If a cash card issued by the bank indicated by the financial institution code 2345 can be used in addition to the bank indicated by the financial institution code 1234, the collation target storage means 22 stores the financial institution code 1234 and The financial institution code 2345 is stored. The matching unit 24 checks whether the financial institution code of the read cash card is 1234 or 2345 stored in the matching target storage unit 22, and outputs a match signal to the control unit 13 when they match.

In the above case, it is inefficient to register each financial institution code in the matching target storage unit 22 when the types of cash cards available in the cash corner increase. For example, when the financial institution code of the financial institution that has issued the cash card usable in the cash corner is 0001 to 0099, (00 **) is stored in the comparison target storage means 22 and the financial institution code partially matches ( In this case, a match signal is output according to the first two digits of the financial institution code), or (0001 to 0099) is stored in the matching target storage means 22 so that the match signal is output when it is within the range. It may be. In this case, the partial match or the range described above does not include the financial institution code of the financial institution that cannot use the cash corner.

By the way, if the usable time of the cash corner by the cash card issued by the bank indicated by the financial institution code 2345 and the cash card issued by the bank indicated by the financial institution code 2345 are the same as described above. It is good, but the available time may differ depending on the financial institution. In such a case, the content of verification is switched according to the time zone. For example, the available time of the cash corner by the cash card issued by the bank indicated by the financial institution code 1234 is 24 hours, and the available time by the cash card issued by the bank indicated by the financial institution code 2345 is 24 hours. The period is from 7:00 to 9:00 pm, and the time zone for the collation mode is from 7:00 pm to 7:00 am The collation target storage unit 22 stores the financial institution codes 1234 and 2345. Further, the available time storage means 23 stores cash corner available time information (from midnight to 12 pm) using the cash card of the financial institution code 1234, and uses the cash corner using the cash card of the financial institution code 2345. The possible time information (from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm) is stored. The collation means 24 collates the financial institution code of the read cash card with the financial institution code stored in the collation target storage means 22, and when they match, further stores the available time storage means 23. It matches the available time information and outputs a match signal to the control unit 13 when they match. That is, the matching unit 24 performs matching based on the storage contents of the matching target storage unit 22 and the available time storage unit 23, and from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm, the financial institution of the read cash card is used. When the code is 1234 or 2345, a match signal is output to the control unit 13. Further, from 9:00 pm to 7:00 am, when the financial institution code of the read cash card is 1234, a coincidence signal is output to the control unit 13.

In the case where the verification contents are switched according to the above-mentioned time zone, when the financial institution code of the read cash card is 2345 from 9:00 pm to 7:00 am, “the cash card is The message "Today's usage time has ended" is sent to the user by voice or display. By performing the above-described verification, only a person having a cash card that can be used in a cash corner can enter the cash corner.

[0029]

[Effect of the invention]

 The card reader device installed near the entrance of the cash corner reads the information of the cash card possessed by the user, so that only those who can use the cash corner can enter the cash corner. Can be prevented from entering the cache corner. Therefore, it is possible to provide a cash corner that can be used safely and comfortably by a legitimate user. Matching using a cash card is performed using information of a part that identifies a financial institution such as a bank, so that the amount of information stored in advance as a matching target is small, and furthermore, it is allocated to a financial institution. By collating using a common code portion of the unique codes, the amount of information stored in advance can be further reduced, and setting and changing operations can be performed easily and quickly. Even if cash cards issued by multiple financial institutions can be used at cash corners and the available times of cash corners by cash cards issued by each financial institution are different, the available time of each can be calculated in advance. By storing and collating, only those who can use the cache corner according to the time zone can enter the cache corner. In addition, by performing verification using a cash card only during the time when there are few users, such as late at night or early in the morning, it is possible to prevent the convenience of users from being impaired. Furthermore, the provision of an emergency push button allows anyone without a cash card to enter the cash corner in the event of an abnormal situation inside the cash corner, enabling emergency response such as rescue.
