In addition, the manager 250 of the lodging establishment management system may also develop a system for analyzing the usage pattern of the user of the lodging establishment by utilizing big data.

The cloud server 220 may grant and manage the authority of the terminal 210 according to the reservation and check-in schedule of the user using the accommodation. In this case, the cloud server 220 may store the social login and member registration information of the user who uses the accommodation.

In addition, the cloud server 220 may utilize a one-time URL to prevent reuse and external use. That is, the cloud server 220 uses the URL information given to the NFC tag of the door lock 230 for one-time use so that the user of the terminal 210 can access the URL one-time, and the URL information once used is not used again. Security can be strengthened. Through this, when a customer who has used the accommodation in the past visits again, it is possible to solve the security problem because the guest room 260 cannot be used without a new authorization.

In addition, the problem of not receiving the door lock key may not occur due to the occurrence of a communication problem with the manager 250 of the accommodation establishment. That is, since access is possible only to the terminal 210 to which the authority is granted only during the reserved period, the security and door lock key delivery problems can be solved.

In addition, the manager 250 of the accommodation establishment may secure the big data accumulated in the cloud server 220 and develop the dashboard.

3 is a view for explaining an embodiment of using the lodging establishment management system according to an embodiment of the present invention for a check-in kiosk. Hereinafter, the check-in kiosk may correspond to the wireless charging device described above. That is, the wireless charging cradle may serve as a cradle that provides a concierge service when used in a room, and may serve as a check-in kiosk when used in a check-in step.

In addition, the check-in kiosk can perform social simple login and simple payment of the terminal. In this case, the check-in kiosk may be authorized from the cloud server through the phone number of the terminal.

More specifically, the check-in kiosk includes an NFC tag inside, so when a terminal operating as an NFC reader approaches within a preset range, the terminal can access the cloud server using the NFC tag inside the check-in kiosk. have.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the terminal may connect to the cloud server by encoding the connection information of the cloud server in the NFC tag inside the check-in kiosk. For example, the terminal may receive URL information from the NFC tag inside the check-in kiosk to access the cloud server.

Thereafter, the cloud server may request user authentication through simple social login of the terminal. When the information of the terminal matches the reservation information registered in the cloud server, the cloud server may set permission permission for the terminal in the check-in kiosk.

In addition, the check-in kiosk can use a simple payment through a terminal using NFC tag technology. In this case, the check-in kiosk may automatically transmit a signal to the terminal by using the NFC tag technology without installing a separate application.

Thereafter, the check-in kiosk may complete check-in by performing simple payment with the terminal or by card or cash payment through the kiosk.

When check-in is completed through the check-in kiosk, the cloud server may grant authority to the terminal to the corresponding room. In addition, the cloud server may set the terminal to operate as an NFC tag reader from a point in time after check-in.

In addition, when an unreserved terminal is tagged in the check-in kiosk, the check-in kiosk may output whether the desired type of room remains on the display. Thereafter, the procedure may be the same as in the above-described embodiment, and payment and check-in may be performed after selecting a room.

Through this, the manager and the customer of the lodging establishment can check-in non-face-to-face, so that the manager can save labor costs and the customer can reduce the inconvenience of having to check-in face-to-face.

4 is a view for explaining an embodiment of opening and closing a guest room door lock by the lodging establishment management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In one embodiment of the present invention, when the user of the terminal tags the terminal on the door lock of the room, the terminal may obtain URL information that can be accessed to the cloud server from the NFC tag included in the door lock. Accordingly, the terminal can access the cloud server through the web browser. In this case, the cloud server may grant the authority to the terminal after confirming the authorization time through the identification information of the terminal.

Thereafter, when the terminal receives the authority to open and close the door lock from the cloud server, the door lock may open and close the door lock by the terminal under the control of the cloud server. For example, if the identification information of the terminal matches the reservation information of the corresponding room of the cloud server, the door lock may be opened, and if it does not match, the door lock may not be opened.

In addition, in one embodiment of the present invention, the step in which the terminal is granted authority from the cloud server can be executed only the first time, and once the terminal has been granted the authority from the cloud server, the terminal opens and closes the door lock without access to the cloud server thereafter. can do.

In addition, even after the terminal confirms whether the authorization is authenticated once through the check-in kiosk, it is possible to further enhance security by determining whether the terminal has authorization in the door lock once more.

In addition, through the check-in kiosk, the terminal may be given an arbitrary number other than the identification information of the terminal, and thereafter, the terminal may use the received arbitrary number to open and close the door lock.

In addition, the terminal and the cloud server, the cloud server and the door lock may be connected through Wi-Fi, and opening and closing of the door lock may be operated through Bluetooth. This is because Bluetooth uses less battery than Wi-Fi, so the door lock itself can be used to open and close the door even with Bluetooth. In particular, this is because, in the case of Bluetooth, power consumption is not large even when the power is always turned on. That is, in this case, when the cloud server issues a door open command to the door lock according to authority, the door lock may open the door through Bluetooth. In addition, although not shown in the drawings, the door lock body may be operated by a battery.

In addition, the cloud server may grant authority to a plurality of terminals. For example, when more than one person has reserved a room, it is necessary to set the authority for a plurality of terminals. In this case, when the identification information of the terminal is confirmed based on the reservation information stored in the cloud server, the authority may be granted to a plurality of terminals.

In addition, when using the door lock as a reader, only a registered card including an NFC tag can be used. When the terminal is used as a reader, the cloud server manages the terminal, so that big data of the terminal can be collected.

In addition, in the case of using a door lock as a reader, if the registered card is lost, the person who acquired the card can open the door lock. .

5 is a view for explaining an embodiment of providing a room concierge service by the lodging establishment management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When the user of the terminal enters the room after opening the door lock of the room, the wireless charging cradle can be used.

More specifically, like the check-in kiosk and door lock described above, the wireless charging device may also include an NFC tag. In this case, when the terminal is tagged on the cradle of the wireless charging cradle, the terminal may control the interior of the cabin through the wireless charging cradle.

The terminal can control the inside of the room by accessing the cloud server through NFC without installing a separate application by applying the web method.

In addition, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the terminal accesses the wireless charging station, it may receive NFC tag information of the wireless charging station and access the cloud server to receive authorization from the cloud server.

Accordingly, the wireless charging cradle device may allow the terminal to control the interior of the cabin during the time for which the terminal is authorized even if the terminal is not mounted on the wireless charging cradle device.

In this case, the terminal may be granted control of the interior of the room for a predetermined time after the terminal is mounted on the wireless charging station. In addition, the wireless charging cradle device may output a message such as “recognize once again” through the display when the terminal is unstable or the connection is not smooth.

In addition, after the terminal acquires control of the interior of the room through the wireless charging cradle, the wireless charging cradle may provide various room service functions to the terminal through the display. For example, the wireless charging cradle device may output the food types that can be ordered through the display. Thereafter, the wireless charging station may receive a selection of food from the user, transmit information about the selected food to the cloud server through Wi-Fi, and the cloud server may process an order for room service.

In particular, the wireless charging device can be developed to support both NFC, QR code use and wireless charging. That is, the wireless charging cradle device may include a module that blocks wireless charging and NFC interference and supports wireless charging together with control contents.

Accordingly, even if the user puts the terminal on the cradle of the wireless charging cradle for wireless charging, the wireless charging cradle may control the interior of the room separately from the wireless charging service. In addition, the wireless charging station may control the door lock, lighting, TV and temperature control in the room through Wi-Fi through the Wi-Fi module. In this case, the wireless charging cradle may control the inside of the room through Wi-Fi. At this time, the wireless charging cradle device may automatically connect to Wi-Fi.

The wireless charging cradle device according to an embodiment of the present invention may also perform opening and closing of a room door performed by the aforementioned check-in and check-out kiosk and door lock.

In addition, the wireless charging cradle device may provide information on restaurants around the lodging establishment, entertainment information, and the like through the display.

In addition, the wireless charging cradle is a power supply technology using NFC induced current, and wireless charging is possible through NFC activation, and advertisements and menus using NFC can be activated.

In addition, the wireless charging cradle can be charged regardless of the brand of the terminal (eg, Samsung, LG, Huawei).

In addition, the wireless charging cradle device can start wireless charging when the terminal is mounted even if the wireless charging support application is not installed. Through this, the user can use the wireless charging service without a sense of reluctance to install the application.

In addition, when the terminal is used as a reader and an NFC tag is included in the wireless charging cradle, information may be collected from the cloud server about what order the terminal placed during the stay through the wireless charging cradle.

6 is a view for explaining a service conceptual diagram of a lodging establishment management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

More specifically, when a user makes a reservation for an accommodation through the first platform (Platform (A)) or the second platform (Platform (B)), the user's reservation information is registered in the accommodation management system through the cloud server. do.

In this case, the cloud server can synchronize accounts between platforms with just one social login regardless of the platform type (eg, Expedia, Booking.com, Agoda, Airbnb, etc.). That is, the cloud server may store reservation information through the user's login.

Thereafter, the terminal or at least one IoT device may access the cloud server through a web browser. In this case, the terminal or at least one IoT device may obtain URL information stored in the NFC tag and access the cloud server through a web browser.

In an embodiment of the present invention, when the terminal is mounted on a wireless charging device, it is automatically connected to an IoT server that communicates with IoT sensors and can control the interior of the room through the cloud server.

In this case, the terminal and the wireless charging station may communicate through Wi-Fi, and the wireless charging station may be controlled through a cloud server. For example, if the terminal wants to control the TV after being mounted on the wireless charging cradle, the wireless charging cradle may control the TV based on the control of the cloud server. At this time, in order to control the TV, the wireless charging device may include an infrared sensor. That is, although not shown in the drawings, the minimum sensor for controlling the system existing inside the cabin may be included in the wireless charging device, of course.

In addition, the lodging establishment management system of the present invention may further include a broadcast (broadcast) converter in order for the cloud server to control the opening and closing of the door lock. More specifically, the cloud server communicates with the broadcast converter through Wi-Fi through a gateway, and the broadcast converter and the door lock communicate through Bluetooth to reduce battery consumption of the door lock. In other words, if the converter and the door lock are communicated through Wi-Fi, a broadcast converter can be used because it consumes a lot of battery. In this case, the process of transmitting a command for opening and closing the door lock from the cloud server may be secured through block chain technology.

In addition, the wireless charging device may serve as a Wi-Fi router. In addition, the WAS and IoT server in the drawing may use blockchain technology.

In step S710 , when the terminal operating as an NFC reader reads the NFC tag of the door lock installed in the accommodation, the terminal may access the cloud server based on information stored in the NFC tag. In this case, the information stored in the NFC tag may correspond to URL information.

In step S720, the cloud server may control to open and close the door lock based on the information received from the terminal. The cloud server may grant authority to the terminal based on the identification information of the terminal. More specifically, the cloud server may grant authority to the terminal when the received terminal information matches the terminal of the user who has reserved the accommodation establishment. In this case, the cloud server may authorize the terminal to operate as a reader only for a preset period. Here, the preset period may be from a check-in time to a check-out time of the accommodation establishment registered in the cloud server by the user of the terminal.

In addition, although not shown in the drawings, when a terminal operating as an NFC reader reads an NFC tag of a wireless charging cradle installed in a lodging establishment, the terminal may access the cloud server based on information stored in the NFC tag. The cloud server may provide usage information of the accommodation establishment through the wireless charging station based on the information of the terminal.

Accordingly, in the case of the manager of the lodging establishment, when performing self-check-in, it is possible to self-check-in through social member registration and log-in, and it is possible to reduce labor costs by issuing an authentication key for the terminal through the cloud server. .

In addition, in the case of the manager of the lodging establishment, the construction can be done in a short time without separate wiring work, and the IoT function can be introduced into an old building to enable real-time monitoring, thereby reducing energy costs.

In addition, in the case of a manager of a lodging establishment, a target can be marketed by using the collected big data, and promotion through the total IoT implementation of the lodging establishment is also possible.

In addition, in the case of the manager of the lodging establishment, a targeted advertisement for the logged-in customer is possible and information can be provided to the logged-in customer.

In addition, in the case of a user of a lodging establishment, the control screen of the room can be displayed on the terminal by simply placing it on a cradle capable of wireless charging without installing an application. Accordingly, the user may open the door of the room, turn on the TV in the room, adjust the room temperature of the room, or order room service through the terminal.

In addition, in the case of a user of a lodging establishment, the language of the room is automatically set as the language of the terminal, so that when using the lodging establishment from anywhere in the world, it can be used directly in the user's language.

In addition, in the case of a user of a lodging establishment, information on recommended tourist spots and traffic information may be provided through the terminal. Accordingly, it is possible to receive information about the location of nearby restaurants of the lodging establishment or transportation from the outside to the lodging establishment.

In addition, although an embodiment of the present invention has been described as an example in which a wireless charging cradle is installed in a guest room in a lodging establishment, it may be installed in an airport waiting room, a lounge, and a limousine vehicle. More specifically, when installed at an airport, a wireless charging service can be provided and advertisements can be provided at the same time, and information about use of the airport and departure area information can be provided. In addition, when installed in a lounge, a wireless charging service may also be provided, and lounge service and flight information may be provided. In addition, when installed in a limousine vehicle, in addition to the wireless charging service, it is possible to provide information on accommodation in the arrival area and information on nearby restaurants.

Although a flowchart of the method is described in FIG. 7 , it goes without saying that the above-described embodiments may also be used as an embodiment of the method like FIG. 7 .

In addition, although it is described that each process is sequentially executed in FIG. 7 , this is merely illustrative of the technical idea of an embodiment of the present invention. In other words, a person of ordinary skill in the art to which an embodiment of the present invention pertains may change the order described in FIG. 7 without departing from the essential characteristics of an embodiment of the present invention, or perform one or more of each process. Since it is possible to apply various modifications and variations by executing in parallel, it is not limited to the time-series order of FIG. 7 .

Meanwhile, the processes illustrated in FIG. 7 can be implemented as computer-readable codes on a computer-readable recording medium. The computer-readable recording medium includes all types of recording devices in which data readable by a computer system is stored.
