Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a simple mechanical security device suitable for temporary use in security of a building or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, mechanical security of a building or the like is performed by mounting a sensor for detecting an abnormal signal on a ceiling, a wall, a window, etc. of a guard area.
The receiving part and the transmitting part by telephone line are mounted on the wall near the entrance of the building, and the operation part for starting and releasing the security is installed adjacent to the transmitting part or on the wall near the entrance, etc. They were wired or wirelessly connected.

[0003] However, in the above-mentioned conventional method, installation work of sensors and various devices is required, and the building itself has to be damaged. For this reason, if security is needed for a very limited period of time, mechanical security is generally considered inadequate. Furthermore, if the building itself cannot be processed, such as borrowed facilities or important cultural properties,
The construction had to be restricted.

On the other hand, conventionally known mechanical security methods include:
There are the following: For example, JP-A-8-97936
In the remote management system described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. H10-270, when a detection signal from various sensors for abnormality detection is input, the emergency notification device notifies the mobile phone and inputs and specifies a key signal from the mobile phone. To operate the equipment. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Hei 9-245282 discloses that a security center connected to a terminal for monitoring a building via a communication line and a management center different from the security center are connected by a telephone line, and the security center is connected to the security center. In a remote monitoring method in which a dispatch request is made, a method is described in which information relating to a dispatch request from the management center to the security center is stored in a storage device of the security center. In addition to these, various sensors are installed in a building and a detected abnormality is reported using a telephone line. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 53-65691 and 5-91204 disclose such a system. Has been described.

[0005] These conventional machine monitoring devices (security devices)
In each case, a sensor for abnormality detection, a reception unit for an abnormality detection signal from the sensor, a transmission unit by telephone line, an operation unit for starting and releasing security, etc. were separately attached, and were installed semi-permanently Therefore, in addition to requiring a dedicated space, construction costs were involved, and it was not suitable for the purpose of easily guarding for a short period of time.

Recently, even offices and the like that do not usually feel the need for security are not allowed to open offices for a certain period of time for summer vacation, year-end and new year vacations, renovation, etc. There is an increasing need for temporary security for a short period of time, such as model rooms such as houses to be opened), election offices, offices for events, etc. In such cases, it is uneconomical to install semi-permanent security devices. For this reason, temporary security often relies on patrols several times a day. However, since security guards are unwatched except during patrols, early security (patrol) At times, it was only possible to find them, and overwhelmingly unwatched times were not always sufficient security.

[0007] Also, depending on the security requester, it may not be desired to publicize that security is being implemented. However, conventional mechanical security equipment involves construction work, and various equipment and facilities are located at specific locations. Because it was fixed, it was difficult to keep it secret. In particular, in recent years, there have been cases where an intruder has visited the facility in advance and pierced the blind spot of security, etc., but there was a limit to the concealment of conventional fixed facilities.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention provides a system and a method for installing various sensors and equipment necessary for mechanical security without requiring full-scale construction work, and for easily changing the security area arbitrarily. It is an object to provide a simple and economical security device that can be provided.

[0009]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention employs the following configuration. That is, the simple security device according to the present invention is a sensor for abnormality detection,
A receiving unit to which an abnormality detection signal from the sensor is input, a transmission unit to report the abnormality detection signal input to the receiving unit to a preset telephone number using a telephone line, and an operation to start / release security The unit is integrally provided in one portable box.

[0010] Generally, the telephone number to be reported is to the monitoring center of a security company, and like the conventional mechanical security,
The security company that receives the abnormal signal will take appropriate action promptly, but will make a voice call to the general telephone at the requester's home, and the owner, manager, etc. of the target facility will do so without the help of the security company. You can deal with it yourself.

[0011] This simple security device is not only a detection signal from a sensor attached to the box, but also a sensor box (a box in which a sensor and a transmission unit are integrated) installed in another security area or a single unit. Since it has a function of receiving from various sensors, the area to be watched can be not only the watched area in which the simplified security device is installed, but also other areas. The sensor box installed in a security area other than the installation location of the simple security device includes, for example, various sensors (detection sensors for fire, crime prevention, etc.), a wireless transmitter when the sensor itself does not have a wireless transmission function, a power supply, Equipment, intimidation equipment, etc. will be added. For a sensor that cannot be installed in the sensor box, such as an infrared sensor, a mobile stand for installing a sensor suitable for the detection function of the sensor may be installed and supported. When a sensor having the above-described wireless transmission function, power supply function, or the like is used, the sensor can be installed as a single sensor in a security area.

This simple security device can be easily installed on furniture such as floors, shelves, desks and the like with little use of tools. It is a portable type that can be easily carried by one person, and can be stored in a place that is difficult to see during business hours.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with specific examples. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a simplified security device of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an external view thereof. The security device 1 includes a sensor S, a receiving unit 4, a transmitting unit 6, a control device 2 for performing various controls, and the like, and these are housed in one box 1a. The control device 2
Is provided with a control circuit 2a and a network control circuit constituting the transmission unit 6, and various sensors S,... For detecting abnormality are wirelessly connected thereto. As the abnormality detection sensor, various sensors commonly used for disaster prevention and crime prevention, such as a heat ray sensor, a glass breakage sensor, an infrared sensor, a gas leak sensor, and the like are used as needed. As shown in FIG. 2, some sensors S ₁ , S ₂ ,... (For example, a hot-wire sensor for detecting an intruder) are attached to the box 1a, and the sensors can be moved together when relocated. It is convenient because you can do it.

The disaster prevention and crime prevention sensors S are respectively installed at appropriate monitoring locations in a security area, and are connected to the security device 1 by radio. 5 in the figure is an antenna. FIG. 3 is a transmission unit for connecting a sensor installed outside the box of the security device to the security device 1. The transmission unit 3 receives the detection signal of each sensor once, and wirelessly transmits the signal to the security device 1. input. Also, some types of sensors have a built-in transmission unit (FIG. 4). Abnormal signals detected by the sensors S ₁ and S ₂ attached to the box of the security device 1 are directly input to the interface. P in FIG. 3 is a battery.

The control unit 2 uses a telephone line L to read the contents of a receiving unit 4, an input interface 7, a ROM and a RAM in which a program for controlling the control unit 2 is stored, and an abnormality detection signal. A transmitting unit 6 for transmitting to a monitoring center or the like, an alarm output unit 12, a power supply device P, and the like are connected. The alarm output unit 12 performs an alarm such as an audio alarm or lighting of a light in place of or together with the transmission of the abnormality detection signal, and is connected to a speaker and a passing light device that perform an audio alarm. Is done.
The content of the alarm by voice is recorded in a recording device in advance.

Further, the security device 1 is provided with an operation unit operated by the remote control device 30 and a card-type operation unit 33 as operation units for starting and releasing security. When the security is started and released with a card, the operation is performed in the room where the security device 1 is installed. Therefore, the release operation after entry and the exit after the start operation are set in advance by a built-in timer. It is necessary to act within the given time (usually about 1 to 3 minutes). When starting and releasing are performed by remote control, the remote control device 3
0 may be manipulated externally. Other appropriate devices such as a device using a key switch or the like may be adopted as a security start / cancel setting device.

The security device 1 is installed in a security area that needs to be monitored, but it is necessary that the security device 1 be installed in a building having a locking device. Monitoring of the outer periphery of the building and the outdoors is basically done by infrared sensors, but in places where people can easily approach or where dogs, cats, etc. pass, an alarm is issued each time they pass, so these are It must be protected so that it cannot enter the installation site.

The monitoring items are roughly classified into disaster prevention monitoring and crime prevention monitoring. As sensors for disaster prevention monitoring, fire detectors and gas leak detectors will be installed at appropriate locations. Instead of installing the fire detector, it is convenient to receive a signal from an existing fire alarm system in the building. In addition, as sensors for security monitoring, a heat ray sensor and a glass breakage sensor for detecting the movement of a human body are installed in necessary places. An infrared sensor for detecting when a person enters the restricted area may be installed at an appropriate place. The transmission unit 3 is set in these sensors so as to be transmitted to the security device 1 wirelessly.

On the other hand, an abnormality detection signal from a sensor connected to the transmission unit 3 is input to the transmission unit 3, wirelessly transmitted to the security device 1, and received by the reception unit 4. When the abnormality detection signal is input, the security device 1 notifies the monitoring center 50 of an abnormality signal corresponding to the abnormality detection signal from the transmitting unit 6 using the telephone line L. In this case, connection to the set telephone number destination and conversion of the abnormality detection signal into a notification signal are performed by the control device 2.

The monitoring center 50 examines the contents of the abnormality transmitted from the specific security device 1 and dispatches emergency personnel M to the site, police department K, fire department F, etc.
And take appropriate measures such as reporting to the designated emergency contact E. Depending on the contents of the abnormality detection signal, an alarm may be issued at the monitoring location instead of or together with the notification to the monitoring center. The contents of this warning may be, for example, a warning by sound such as "This place is a restricted area and please leave immediately," or a threat (passing) by a lighting device. This type of alarm can be issued from the monitoring center 50 via the security device 1.

The security device 1 houses, in one box, an abnormality detection sensor, a reception unit for an abnormality detection signal, and a transmission unit for reporting an abnormality signal to a predetermined place via a telephone line based on the abnormality detection signal. Since it is a simple thing provided
For example, it is suitable for short-term temporary machine monitoring. Further, since the security device 1 can easily change the installation location, it can monitor an arbitrary location as needed. Furthermore, since the device itself is compact, it is difficult for a person to notice the installation of the security device, and monitoring can be performed in secret.
