Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the selecting operation of a burglar alarm area to be practically monitored by providing this security monitoring system with a means for detecting a sensor in an alarm generating state at the time of setting up a monitor mode and a means for exclusively setting up the sensor from an object to be monitored. CONSTITUTION:Sensor status monitoring parts 22a to 22c for monitoring the contact off states of respective sensors S are formed as means for detecting sensors whose contacts are held at alarm generating states before the setting of a monitor mode and at the time of setting up the monitor mode. A control part 24 consisting of a CPU for managing/controlling output results from the monitoring parts 22a to 22c monitors the sensors 20a-20c whose contacts are ON as monitored objects when the monitor mode is set up. Namely the sensor whose contact is OFF (alarm generating state) in the monitor mode is excluded from an object to be monitored. Since an area in a locked state can be monitored, it is not always necessary to execute the setting operation of a trouble area only by setting up a burglar alarm mode after completing the locking of doors or the like.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a security monitoring system such as a crime prevention monitoring system for monitoring opening and closing of windows and doors.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art JP-A-61-190652 (G06F15 / 20)
As shown in No. 3-52100 (G08B23 / 00), as a security function of home automation system, sensors are installed in windows and doors of houses to monitor the door lock state,
There is a security monitoring system that alerts you when necessary.

In this type of crime prevention monitoring system, after the crime prevention warning mode is set by the crime prevention warning setting button,
The open / close sensor and infrared sensor detect the open state of windows and doors and intruders. By this detection, an alarm is displayed, an alarm sound is emitted, and an automatic notification is given. In addition, after setting the security alert mode with the security alert setting button, if this setter goes out from the door, normally, after the operation with the security alert setting button, so as not to give an alarm.
After a lapse of a predetermined time, a substantial crime prevention warning mode is set. Further, when returning home, even if the person enters the room through the door, an alarm sound or an automatic notification is issued after a predetermined time has elapsed from the time of detecting the intrusion so that the alarm does not sound. And
If a predetermined operation is performed on the crime prevention monitoring system within the predetermined time, the alarm operation can be reset.

By the way, in a house equipped with a crime prevention monitoring system, the house is set to a crime prevention warning mode at bedtime. However, depending on the resident, when sleeping at night, there is a demand for opening a specific window and setting another window as a crime prevention mode. In such a case, it is preferable that the alarm does not sound even if a specific window or door is opened in the crime prevention mode.

For this reason, it is proposed that the housing is divided into several areas and monitoring sensors are provided, and only the desired area is set in the crime prevention mode by the crime prevention button provided for each monitoring sensor. Has been done. In this way, in a three-story house, the first floor to the third floor are not set in the crime prevention warning mode all at once,
It is possible to set it on the crime prevention warning mode on the 2nd and 2nd floors and exclude it from the monitoring target without setting it on the 3rd floor.

In this way, it is possible to combine the setting and non-setting of the crime prevention warning mode for each floor (crime prevention area). In such a crime prevention monitoring system, a crime prevention warning button and a crime prevention warning display section are required for each area.

[0007]

As described above, if there is a crime prevention warning button and a crime prevention warning display section for each area,
The larger the number of areas, the more difficult the user is to understand the operation. Therefore, the present invention provides a crime prevention monitoring system in which a desired area of a plurality of crime prevention areas can be set as a crime prevention mode without increasing the number of crime prevention buttons.

The present invention also provides a crime prevention monitoring system in which the operation is not difficult to understand even if the number of crime prevention warning buttons is increased according to the area.

[0009]

The present invention is directed to a monitoring sensor (20a, 20b, 2) that is in an alarm generation state when the monitoring mode is set.
0c), the detection means (22a, 22b, 22c) and the monitoring sensor (2
0a, 20b, 20c) is excluded from the monitoring target, and an exclusion setting means (24) is provided.

According to the present invention, the detection means (22a, 22b, 22c) for detecting the monitoring sensor (20a, 20b, 20c) which is in the alarm generation state before the setting of the monitoring mode, and the monitoring sensor (20a, 20b, 20c). 20c)
The display means (12) for notifying the state of (1) and the exclusion setting means (24) for excluding the monitoring sensors (20a, 20b, 20c) in the alarm generation state from the monitoring target when the monitoring mode is set.

[0011]

According to the present invention, it is possible to carry out monitoring in accordance with the state of the monitoring sensor such as the condition of door lock when the monitoring mode is set.
Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to confirm the status of the monitoring sensor such as the door tightening status before setting the monitoring mode.

EXAMPLE A first example of the present description will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a crime prevention monitoring system. FIG. 2 is a block diagram. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a display screen. In FIG. 1, (10) is a crime prevention alarm device.

(12) is a liquid crystal display screen for displaying a door closed state or a security alarm. That is, this display screen (12) forms a display means for notifying the state of the security sensors (20a, 20b, 20c) described later. This display screen (1
2) is not limited to liquid crystal screens. (14) is a crime prevention warning button. The security alarm button (14) allows the security alarm device (10) to be set in the security alarm mode or released.

Reference numeral (16) is a crime prevention warning display portion including an LED. The crime prevention warning display section (16) lights up during the crime prevention warning to notify the user that the crime prevention warning is being performed. (18)
Is a speaker that outputs an alarm sound or the like. (20a, 20b, 20
Reference c) is a security sensor (monitoring sensor) that includes a sensor (s) that is turned off during operation and that detects intrusion into each area.

In FIG. 2, (22a, 22b, 22c) are sensor state monitoring units. The sensor state monitoring unit (22
a, 22b, 22c) monitor the contact off state (open state) of the sensor (s). This sensor status monitoring unit (22a, 22b, 22c)
Is before crime prevention warning mode setting (before monitoring mode setting), and
When the security alert mode is set (when the monitoring mode is set), the sensor
The detection means for detecting the crime prevention sensor (20a, 20b, 20c) in the contact off state (alarm generation state) of (s) is formed.

(24) is an operation / display / sensor state monitoring unit (2
2a, 22b, 22c) is a control unit composed of a microcomputer (CPU) for managing and controlling the results from 2a, 22b, 22c). This controller (2
4) is basically a security sensor (20a, 20a, which is in the contact-on state when the security alert mode is set (when the monitoring mode is set).
20b, 20c) are the targets of monitoring. In other words, this control unit (24) is set when the crime prevention warning mode is set (when the monitoring mode is set).
Further, an exclusion setting means for excluding the security sensors (20a, 20b, 20c) in the contact off state (alarm generation state) from the targets of monitoring is formed.

This operation will be described below. The security monitoring system in Fig. 1 shall be applied to a three-story house. The sensor status monitoring unit (22a) and the security sensor (20a) monitor the first floor partial area. Sensor status monitoring unit (22b) and crime prevention sensor (20b)
Monitor the partial area on the second floor. The sensor state monitoring unit (22c) and the security sensor (20c) monitor the third floor partial area.

Now, assume that the window on the third floor is open. That is, the security sensors (20a, 20b) are in a normal state (standby state), and at least one sensor (S) among the security sensors (20c) is in an alarm output state (operating state). here,
Set the crime prevention button (14). The control unit (24) uses the sensor state monitoring units (22a) (22b) (22c) to prevent the crime prevention sensor (20c).
Detects that it is in an operating state.

The control unit (24) causes the liquid crystal display (12) to display the door closed state as shown in FIG. In other words, crime prevention button (1
When 4) is pressed, the door lock state at that time is displayed on the screen (12). This allows residents to see that the windows or doors on the third floor are open. If only the first floor and the second floor should be set in the crime prevention warning mode, the crime prevention warning setting confirmation operation is performed in this state.

In this embodiment, the operation of confirming the crime prevention warning set is to push the crime prevention warning button (14) again while the door is closed. By this confirmation operation of the security alert set, the screen display disappears and the security alert display section (16) appears.
Lights up and you will be on the 1st and 2nd floor. After that, if windows or doors on the first and second floors are opened, the crime prevention alarm will be issued by the LCD screen (12) and the speaker (18), but the windows and doors on the third floor will be opened. / Alarm is not activated even when closed.

When the door lock state of FIG. 3 is displayed, if it is desired to set the third floor to the crime prevention warning state, the door lock of the third floor is performed. As a result, the security sensor (20c) on the 3rd floor
The standby state is entered, and the screen display indicates that all door locks have been completed. After this, a crime prevention alert set confirmation operation is performed. As a result, the crime prevention warning display (16) is lit,
All areas are set as crime prevention alert mode.

By the way, in the first embodiment, when the windows and doors on the second and third floors are open, at least one sensor (S) of the crime prevention sensors (20b, 20c) is operating. When the crime prevention warning button (14) is pressed to set the crime prevention warning state, the liquid crystal screen (12) displays a door lock state indicating that the windows and doors on the second and third floors are open.

At this time, if you want to monitor the first floor and the second floor, close the open windows and doors on the second floor, and when the door lock status display changes as shown in Fig. 3, check the crime prevention set. I do. In addition, in order to set the area where the door is not locked as a crime prevention warning mode, the door must be locked, but normally the area where the resident wants to monitor is locked. I think that this rarely happens.

All the security sensors (20a, 20b, 20c)
However, when the crime prevention warning button (14) is pressed in the standby state, there are no open windows or doors, so all areas are set to the crime prevention warning mode. According to this embodiment, when the system is set to the security alert state by the security alert button (14), the door lock state of the window or door at that time is displayed, and the displayed door lock state is set in the security alert mode. If yes, perform the crime prevention alert set confirmation operation.
Also, if there is a problem with the displayed door lock state,
After closing the door only in the necessary areas, check the crime prevention set.

According to this embodiment, even when the number of areas to be monitored is increased or decreased, the same operation can be performed. In the first embodiment, the door must be locked in order to set the area where the door is not locked as the crime prevention warning mode. Also, the area where the door is closed,
In order to exclude it from the crime prevention mode, it is necessary to open windows.

Moreover, after performing the work for closing the door and opening the window, the crime prevention alarm display device is again displayed.
You must go to the location of (10) and press the crime prevention button (14). To solve this, crime prevention warning button
By (14), after a fixed time (for example, 2 minutes) after the crime prevention alert set confirmation operation, the area where the door is not locked may be excluded from the alert state mode. By doing this, the security alert button will be activated in the actual security alert mode.
(14) Not when the crime prevention set confirmation operation was performed,
Two minutes after finishing this operation. That is, the resident
When it is desired to set the area where doors are locked to be excluded from the monitoring target, the windows and doors in this area can be opened within 2 minutes.

On the contrary, an area in which the door is locked after a fixed time (for example, 2 minutes) after the crime prevention warning set confirmation operation is targeted in the warning mode. In other words, if the resident wants to set an area in which doors are not locked as a monitoring target, the residents should complete the door locking within this area within 2 minutes. In other words, equipped with timer means to count 2 minutes from the time of checking the crime prevention set,
The area where the door is closed when the timer means is output after 2 minutes is set to the crime prevention warning mode.

This timer means is the CPU (2
It is realized by 4). So in this case, the CPU
(24) is a crime prevention sensor (20a, 20b, 20a, 20b, which is in an alarm generation state after a predetermined time (2 minutes) from the crime prevention warning mode setting operation.
20c) is excluded from the monitoring target and forms an exclusion setting means. In addition, the area where the door is closed can be used as a security
FIG. 4 shows another embodiment that is excluded from the list.

In this embodiment, the display shown in FIG. 4 is displayed on the door lock state display screen. The resident can select and set by pressing the buttons (26), (26) and (26) of the area where he / she wants to set the crime prevention warning mode. The buttons (26), (26) and (26) are function keys, and the function of this key is displayed on the display screen (12). In this case, the number of buttons (26) increases, but if you do not want to set the detailed area, you can use the security alert button (1
Just press 4), and the operation is not troublesome within the range of normal operation.

Further, in the first embodiment, the sensor "the contact is turned off when the sensor is operated" is taken as an example, but the present invention is "contact is turned on when the sensor is operated" as shown in FIG. It is also possible to use a "type" sensor (S '). This sensor
(S ') is a sensor whose contacts turn on when a window or door is opened.

Further, in the first embodiment, the crime prevention sensor is directly connected to the crime prevention warning display device (10), but according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. A system may be used in which the area for crime prevention is increased by connecting the sensor connection interface unit (28) through a communication line (30) such as a mubus. Further, in the present embodiment, the crime prevention alert set confirmation operation is to push the crime prevention alert button (14) again, but the present invention displays the screen as shown in FIG.
It is also possible to display a guide for confirmation operation on (12) and press the button (26) accordingly, or other methods may be used.

In the first embodiment, the system having three security sensors (monitoring areas) is taken as an example, but any number of security sensors may be used. Further, the number of sensors attached to this security sensor does not matter. Further, in the first embodiment, during the security alert mode, the crime prevention warning display section (16) was always lit, but when the entire area is monitored, the crime prevention warning display section (16) is lit, If a part of the area is to be monitored, it may blink.

Although the system of this embodiment is limited to crime prevention, it can also be applied to a security system for monitoring fires, gas leaks and the like.

[0034]

According to the present invention, it is possible to monitor an area that is in a door lock condition when the monitoring mode is set. Therefore, if the crime prevention warning mode is set after the door lock is completed, a troublesome setting operation for each area is not required. May be. Further, according to the present invention, since the door lock status is displayed before the monitoring mode is set, it is possible to prevent the wrong area from being set to the crime prevention warning mode.

Further, according to the present invention, after a predetermined time has passed after the monitor mode setting operation, a substantial monitor mode is set,
Since the area to be in the crime prevention warning mode is set according to the closed door situation at the start of the monitoring mode, the area to be in the crime prevention warning mode can be changed even after the monitoring mode setting operation.
