Description

  TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an insurance system for detecting damage and unauthorized intrusion of window glass members, etc., reporting to the person himself, security system and damage due to aging, periodic repair and repair of natural damage, and repair costs. is there.

  In recent years, couples working together have increased along with lifestyle changes. Therefore, homes tend to be away, and children are often added to facilities or left alone. Along with that, crimes and accidents due to unauthorized intrusion have increased. Now, police guards can no longer protect good citizens. Also, the neighborhood relationship is sparse and I cannot rest assured. Regardless of homes, crimes and thefts are frequently occurring in offices and stores.

  On the other hand, technological progress is rapid. In particular, IT (Information Technology) and the use of computers have expanded to the bottom layer. In addition, the spread of mobile phones to society has become tremendous. Mobile phones, personal computers, and PDAs (Persona I Digital Assistants) are now owned by each person regardless of gender. This is the advent of a ubiquitous society. It is a society called ubiquitous computing or ubiquitous networking.

  The ubiquitous society means a society in which the ability of computers is everywhere, the Internet (Internet) is attached, supports information communication, and the convenience of services is further improved. We humanity is a technology that can benefit in many ways.

  In addition, the use of weak radio waves has become active. The spread of hot spots using Bluetooth and infrared communication IrDA (Infrared Data Association) is also remarkable. As a result, indoor information communication can be communicated without wiring.

  The hot spot is a wireless LAN using IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), which uses weak radio waves. IEEE 802.11a 5,2 Ghz and 802.11b 2,4 Ghz are commonly used.

In recent years, IC tags using micro CPUs have become practical. The IC tag is also referred to as an RFID (Radio Frequency Identity Device) chip. It is a minute wireless response device that includes a built-in antenna and can be configured with about 1 mm ² . The 2.5 GHz band is as short as 1.5 meters, but the UHF (950 to 956 MHz) band IC tag is as long as 10 meters, which is effective for practical application of the present invention.

It is possible to detect glass breakage and unauthorized intrusion simply by adding a simple transmission circuit. However, a minute computer chip including a CPU, a memory, and an antenna in 1 mm ² is advantageous because the amount of information is enormous in order to provide detailed services to customers quickly using the information communication network.

Therefore, if an information communication network such as the Internet is used in combination, service and safety that satisfy customers can be provided. The conventional method has been detected by shock waves when the glass is broken or by cutting a conductive wire by placing a conductive wire on the glass. In any case, since it is difficult to link with the information communication network, it is only possible to issue an alarm, and there are many malfunctions that have not been put into practical use.
JP 2002-133537 A JP 10-326385 A Nikkei Communication "Wireless IC tag left behind in the world" August 15, 2004 issue

  One of the problems to be solved is crime prevention and defense, property and life safety. Glass breakage detection can be achieved with the prior art. The problem is the degree of damage and protecting people and property from unauthorized intrusion. Just alerting the surroundings isn't perfect.

  It is important to minimize damage and to repair quickly. In addition, it is necessary to focus on arrest of criminals. The present invention provides an effective system for detecting and repairing glass breakage, tracking illegal intruders, and arresting integrated with an information communication network.

  In addition, the present invention partners with an insurance company to minimize damage even if it is damaged. This glass insurance is also applied during natural disasters due to changes over time. It also applies to regular maintenance.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention attaches a micro IC tag on a glass member. A pulse transmission is periodically transmitted from this element, and a collecting device (AP: Access Point) receives and grasps the degree of abnormality. A periodic question of response is issued from the terminal device.

  The degree of abnormality can be detected by the modulation degree of the received pulse. If an abnormality occurs, the person's mobile phone or personal computer is immediately notified of the abnormal state via the public information communication network. At the same time, the degree of abnormality is entered on the glass company's site, and the repair information and amount are estimated and the person himself is selected. The insurance company is also notified and the amount of security is shown to the victim and the glass company according to the degree of insurance coverage and the damage situation.

  When a crime such as unauthorized intrusion is detected, the security company and the police are notified and the criminal is tracked and identified. Glass breakage, anomaly detection, personal report, glass company, security company, insurance company and the police or the neighboring system can be efficiently reported through a series of systems, minimizing customer damage and ensuring customer safety and property The purpose is to secure.

  The glass breakage detection apparatus of the present invention can be achieved simply by attaching an IC tag composed of a simple transparent body. In addition, the damaged part and the degree of damage can be grasped by the pulse modulation width and duty ratio from the IC tag.

  It is possible to detect breakage at the collecting device and notify the person in charge or owner using an information communication network such as the Internet. In addition, if an unauthorized intrusion is detected, it is promptly notified to the security company and the police, which is effective for tracking and preventing crime. In order to perform maintenance promptly, the property owner is promptly informed of the cost estimate and billing, and payment is made from the insurance company, so it is convenient and efficient because it does not bother people.

  The present invention provides a method for ensuring property and safety by detecting breakage and unauthorized intrusion of a window glass, a door, a show window, a showcase and the like made of a glass member and preventing crime. In addition, regular maintenance of the glass company is performed. Since the IC tag can store a large amount of information, various information such as a history of material, shape, material, installation date, installer, and the like are stored.

First embodiment

  FIG. 1 shows a glass member provided with an IC tag which is a glass breakage detecting device according to the present invention. In this example, a configuration of a window glass member with an IC tag is shown. In the figure, 1 is a glass member, and 2 is a sash (frame) for fixing the window glass.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 3 denotes an IC tag circuit constituent unit 4, 5 that stores glass breakage detection, glass member material, and installation date. In this system, a weak electric wave is fed from a collecting device 503 (not shown), power is received from an antenna provided in an IC tag, and power is supplied to three circuit components.

  IC tags include a passive type and an active type. In the passive type, power is supplied from the outside by an induced wave or a weak radio wave, and the passive type is activated. In the active type, the IC tag itself has a power supply and is always in an operating state. A micro battery is provided in the circuit configuration 3, and a solar cell (solar cell) is provided in a part of one glass member.

  The constituent material 3 is a transparent Mylar-like film, or it is not a transparent body but a minute material, so that there is also a method of embedding a circuit in it by pasting a design pattern for decoration of a glass member. The corner of the glass member may be used instead of the center. In addition, an IC tag may be embedded in the letters of advertisements and notes on the glass member. There are various applications for decoration, advertising, and precautionary statements.

  FIG. 2 shows details of the configuration of the three IC tags. Reference numeral 21 denotes a circuit configuration itself, and reference numeral 22 denotes an IC tag body. Details of the internal configuration of 21 are shown in FIG. Reference numeral 23 denotes a loop antenna for transmission / reception, which notifies the state when something abnormal occurs in 1. Reference numeral 24 denotes a power feeding antenna. The terminal device 503 is informed to send a weak radio wave for power supply when the power source is exhausted. In this example, a passive IC tag is attached.

In FIG. 2, reference numeral 25 denotes a solar cell, which is a power source when the IC tag chip 22 is a passive type. What is necessary is just to put in the corner of one glass member. A size of several mm ² is sufficient. If you use a material made of a transparent material, even if you put it on a glass member, you can't see it visually.

26 is a power supply line to 22. If it is placed in 21 or 22 chips, it is not necessary to place 26 or 25 solar cells outside.
As described above, such a power source is not necessary for the active type.

  FIG. 3 shows the internal system configuration of the IC tag chip. In the figure, reference numeral 303 denotes a transmission / reception loop antenna. Reference numeral 302 denotes a transmission / reception unit, which communicates with a termination device 503 shown in FIG. A CPU 304 performs various arithmetic controls.

  Reference numeral 305 denotes a program memory for execution of the CPU, and reference numeral 306 denotes a memory for calculation and control necessary for executing the program. Reference numeral 307 denotes an I / O unit that interfaces with the outside of the IC tag chip. Here, an impedance and dielectric constant detection sensor 308 and an infrared pyroelectric sensor 309 for detecting the intrusion of a person are connected.

  If a monitor camera and a camera-equipped mobile phone are connected to 307, unauthorized intrusion can be reliably detected by video. If a pyroelectric sensor is attached to the window frame 2, intrusion detection can be performed by capturing the heat of the human body generated by infrared rays. Such sensors and monitors can be input to the IC tag chip.

  Reference numeral 29 denotes a power source which may be a micro battery, a film battery or a capacitor. In the case of a capacitor, the power supply radio wave transmitted from the terminal device 70 is received by the antenna 27 and the power is stored in the 29 capacitor.

  Reference numeral 301 denotes a data memory. The data of the external sensor taken in from 307 is stored, or the CPU calculates using this data to determine whether it is in an abnormal state. Reference numeral 312 denotes a battery for storing power, and a large capacitor (capacitor) can be used.

  Reference numeral 24 denotes a feeding loop antenna. A weak power carrier wave is transmitted from the terminating device 503, received at 24, and stored in the battery 312 from the power control unit 311. Since this method is passive, 312 does not require a solar cell.

  The antenna 302 is also a sensor that detects transmission / reception with the 503 and breakage of the glass member. If the glass member is broken, the impedance and dielectric constant change. If they are completely destroyed, both values will be infinite. If this change is detected, an abnormal value or a normal value can be determined.

The antenna needs to perform impedance matching with the transmission line at the feeding point in order to efficiently transmit and receive and obtain gain (gain) efficiently. From the equivalent circuit, the impedance Z of the antenna is expressed by Z = R + j (ωL−1 / ωC). R which is a real part of Z is given as a resistance component which is the sum of radiation resistance _Ra and loss resistance _RL .

Although the radiation resistance is effective for energy, the loss resistance is preferably as small as possible since the energy supplied to the antenna is consumed as heat loss. The reactance component j (ωL−1 / ωC) is a loss with respect to energy.
The antenna gain is affected by R (resistance) and L (inductance) and C (capacitance) of reactance components (jX).

  In the antenna as shown in FIG. 2 or the rod-shaped monopole antenna, the reactance component jX is 0 when the element size of the antenna is equal to ¼ wavelength of the frequency used. The antenna is in resonance with the frequency you want to use. The antenna feed point impedance at this time is Z = R.

  When the element size of the antenna is longer than a quarter wavelength of the frequency to be used, ωL> 1 / ωC and + jX (inductance component) is included, so that the length of the antenna is shortened. When the length of the antenna is fixed and the length cannot be changed, the reactance component can be canceled by inserting a capacitor of −jX (capacitance component) in series.

  When the frequency is shorter than ¼ wavelength, ωL <1 / ωC and the −jX component is included, so that the antenna is lengthened. Also in this case, when the length of the antenna cannot be changed, the reactance component can be canceled by inserting a coil of + jX (inductance component) in series.

  In an application like this example, an antenna can be configured in a loop shape as shown in FIG. When mounted on a chip, a plate-like patch antenna is often used. It is flat, small, lightweight and compact. A stable gain can be obtained. Because it can print, it is suitable for mass production. There is an advantage that linear polarization and circular polarization can be easily made. Although there is a drawback that the frequency band is narrow, in this example, the frequency of the weak radio wave is rather fixed, so it is convenient.

The antenna in RFID is very small. When the operating frequency is as high as 2.4 Ghz, the electrical loss cannot be ignored. Various proposals have been made for ubiquitous devices. However, pursuing the ultimate simplicity of an electronic circuit, such as an RFID chip, requires a device that matches the impedance of the electronic circuit. The absolute gain of the antenna m is expressed as follows when the beam widths of the H (magnetic field) plane and the E plane (electric field) plane are θ _H and θ _E , respectively.
G [dBi] = (10 log 41252 / θ _H · θ _E ) -2.14
It becomes.

  Thus, it can be seen that a minimum patch antenna that can obtain the highest gain can be configured by antenna theory. Therefore, if a change in the impedance of the antenna is detected, glass breakage can be detected, and detection of intrusion by a person can be easily detected. The antenna can also be used as a sensor.

  FIG. 3 shows the internal configuration of 21 IC tag chips. Reference numeral 301 denotes a system bus, and 302 denotes an antenna for communication with the terminal device 503. This is the same as 23 in FIG. Reference numeral 303 denotes a weak radio wave transmission / reception unit, and 304 denotes a minimally formed CPU. A program 305 is stored in a ROM.

  Reference numeral 306 denotes a RAM, which is a memory necessary for CPU calculation and program execution. Reference numeral 306 denotes an I / O unit. It is an interface unit with the outside of the IC tag. A sensor 308 detects changes in impedance and dielectric constant, and a pyroelectric sensor 309 detects infrared rays and heat generated by a person. It may be a very small monitor camera.

  308 is also used as the antenna 302 in this example. A data memory 310 stores calculation data for the purpose of identifying the degree of breakage, location, and intrusion detection based on data input from the sensors 308 and 309.

  Reference numeral 311 denotes a power supply control unit, which supplies power to the power supply from the 24 power supply antennas using weak radio waves. Reference numeral 312 denotes a battery for storing electric power. It may be a solar cell or a capacitance. In the case of a solar cell, the IC tag is an active type. Reference numeral 313 denotes a weak radio wave that communicates with the collecting device. Although not shown, power is also conveyed by 313 to the 24 feeding loop antennas. The frequency of the communication radio wave and the power carrier wave are different.

In step S901, it was detected that the glass was broken for some reason. In step S902, the response of the radio wave from the IC chip provided in the glass member is checked. S903 had no steady response.

  An inquiry radio wave is emitted from the collecting point (AP) device to check the abnormal value. If an abnormality check question is issued in S904 and nothing has occurred, the process returns to S901. If an abnormality is detected, a damaged part is specified in S905. Since the IC tag chip provided in the glass member is addressed, it can be specified where the glass member is located.

  In S906, the radio wave coming from the IC tag is analyzed to analyze the breakage state. Whether it is a complete or partial breakage, the extent of repair and the cost required for recovery, duration These assessments are calculated at the 603 glass company site.

  In step S907, it is checked whether an unauthorized intrusion has occurred. If it is an unauthorized intrusion, it is reported to the site 602 of the security company in S908.

It also explains the compensation system of a non-life insurance company. In S1001, a glass member breakage alarm was issued. It was detected at the site of the glass member supplier in S1002.

  In step S1003, the client and the location are specified from the database. In step S1004, the degree of breakage of the member is grasped. In step S1005, the history of the glass member and the material quality are checked by searching the database. In S1006, the material of the member, the installation status, the construction method, etc. are checked. In S1007, the estimated amount is calculated, and in S1008, the client is notified.

  In step S1009, the intention of the client that has received the quotation is heard. If the client wishes to repair, in S1010, repair and repair will be performed. In S1011, the repair price is settled and the price is received from the client.

  In S1012, it was not damaged by at least an artificial act. It was a natural damage due to changes over time. This point is clarified and the degree of breakage is checked in S1004. This series of operations is characterized in that it can be achieved accurately and quickly without using human hands by using the site, the IC tag, the collecting device, and a hot spot utilizing weak radio waves.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining glass member repair, property insurance, and periodic repair (maintenance) by cooperation between the glass company 603 and the property insurance site 604 shown in FIG. In the figure, S1101 checks whether or not it is time for regular maintenance. In step S1102, it is confirmed whether the glass member is periodically damaged or the glass member is damaged by an external factor.

  S1103 was an external damage. In step S1104, it is further checked whether it is a natural destruction caused by a typhoon or a wind and rain. S1105 was not a natural destruction. It was an unauthorized intrusion. In step S1106, a theft check is performed. In step S1107, it is checked whether there is any harm to the person. In step S1108, all the above damage levels are checked.

  In S1109, since there was damage, the security company reports damage to the police from the security site 602 in FIG. Of course, the person may report damage directly to the police. In S 1110, the damage amount is calculated by the site 604. In step S1111, the client pays an appropriate amount from the insurance he / she has joined. The customer will repair the broken glass member.

Alternatively, it is convenient to make arrangements in advance with the sites 603 and 604 and transfer the money without bothering the customer to make a repair work system.
In step S1112, it is confirmed whether the customer is satisfied. If not satisfied, the process returns to S1110 to reexamine the appropriate payment amount.

  In S1113, breakage of the glass member was natural. Insurance is confirmed at the glass company site 603. If it is regular maintenance, the glass member is checked, and even if it is a natural damage, repair and maintenance are performed in S1114.

  S1115 was not a damage due to an unauthorized intrusion by at least another person. It may be damaged by carelessness by relatives or neighbors. An investigation is conducted to check whether insurance payment is possible in S1116.

  As explained above, non-life insurance companies and glass companies work together to carry out regular maintenance such as human and natural disasters. As a result, the client and the user can omit troublesome procedures, and daily work efficiency is improved.

  As described above, the present invention has described the detection, repair, periodic maintenance, and insurance and security system for glass member breakage. It can be applied not only to glass members of buildings but also to automobiles, railway vehicles, and aircraft.
