Description

  The present invention is employed in an electric lock system for electrically driving and controlling a locking / unlocking device provided in various doors, and has a function of authenticating locking / unlocking information from the outside and controlling the locking / unlocking. It relates to an electric lock with function.

Conventionally, for example, a door of a commercial building, a public facility, or a general house has been provided with an electric lock system having a high crime prevention property in order to avoid intrusion of a suspicious person. This type of electric lock system locks and unlocks a lock by driving a driving means such as a motor and a solenoid, for example, to electrically advance and retract a dead bolt in accordance with a specific locking and unlocking signal.
As such an electric lock system, for example, an electric lock system as disclosed in Patent Document 1 below is known.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-025935

  By the way, this type of electric lock system has a configuration in which an electric lock provided on a door and an electric lock control panel for controlling locking / unlocking of the electric lock are wired via a metal fitting of the door. For this reason, when an electric lock system is introduced, not only the electric lock is installed on the door, but also an electric lock control panel for controlling the electric lock must be separately installed on a different place from the door, for example, on the wall surface of the room. Don't be. Therefore, it is necessary to secure a dedicated installation space for the electric lock control panel. In actual operation, the electric lock control panel often remains the role of a power supply or terminal block, and the installation space and cost of the electric lock control panel are often wasted. Since the wiring space and the installation space for the electric lock control panel are limited, the versatility was poor.

  In addition, the electric lock used in the conventional electric lock system has a contact signal terminal for electrically monitoring the lock / unlock state of the lock and the open / close state of the door, and a motor / solenoid drive terminal of the lock / unlock mechanism. Since it is a structure that is directly pulled out from the lock body and wired to the electric lock control panel, the wires that are wired between the electric lock and the electric lock control panel are cut by fraud, etc. There is also a risk that the electric lock may be illegally locked / unlocked by inputting a predetermined signal (signal for driving the lock / unlock drive) from the outside.

  Furthermore, when constructing an electric lock system having an authentication function, it is usually necessary to connect an ID reader to the electric lock control panel. As a result, the system has become very expensive and hinders its spread.

  By the way, in recent years, in the housing entrance market, there is a demand for electric locks that have high security and can be flexibly adapted to various operations with one door and two locks (multiple locks). The electric lock system capable of two-lock operation employs an electric thumb turn that is driven and unlocked by attaching a drive unit from the door surface of a door to which a general lock is attached. However, in the configuration employing this electric thumb turn, the drive unit is exposed on the door surface, which impairs the design of the door.

  On the other hand, electric locks that are engraved and have excellent design properties are also known, but there is no electric lock control panel compatible with multiple locks, and it is impossible to operate, price, and wire even if the current product is used in combination. there were. Moreover, since only battery operation is required, wired connection is not possible, battery replacement is required, unlocking means are limited to the remote control only, non-touch type, etc., and unlocking from the interphone, etc. Since the device cannot be linked, it could not handle various operations. Furthermore, the engraving type electric lock is not preferable in terms of crime prevention because the drive wiring for the power source is directly pulled out from the lock case.

  In addition, since the conventional electric lock has a different energization method for each lock type, the control method of the electric lock is complicated, and it is difficult to separate the responsibility between the electric lock side and the control side in the event of a malfunction.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides an electric lock with a control function capable of constructing an electric lock system that reduces installation space, is excellent in versatility, and can improve crime prevention. It is for the purpose.

  In order to achieve the above-described object, the electric lock with a control function described in claim 1 preliminarily stores verification information for verification with authentication information acquired from outside, and the authentication information and the verification information are stored. Control means for controlling locking / unlocking of the locking / unlocking mechanism of the lock / unlocking mechanism when the authentication information is determined to be specific authentication information by collation is incorporated in the lock body.

The electric lock with a control function described in claim 2 is the electric lock with a control function according to claim 1,
An authentication information acquisition unit that acquires the authentication information and outputs the acquired authentication information as a signal that can be processed by the control unit includes an external interface that can be connected.

The electric lock with a control function described in claim 3 is the electric lock with a control function according to claim 2,
Another electric lock can be connected to the external interface,
The control means is characterized in that when the locking / unlocking mechanism of its own is controlled, the other electric lock is interlocked / unlocked via the external interface.

The electric lock with a control function described in claim 4 is the electric lock with a control function according to claim 2,
The external interface includes power input / output means and communication input / output means,
A power supply unit equipped with a device control panel capable of controlling the driving of the interlocking device, the authentication information acquisition unit, and another electric lock can be connected via the power input / output means and the communication input / output means. And
Driving power is supplied to each unit from the power supply unit via the power input / output unit, and communication between the units is encrypted via the communication input / output unit, and authentication by the control unit is performed. Based on this, the locking and unlocking mechanism of the self and the other electric lock is controlled.

  As described above, according to the present invention, since the control means for comprehensively controlling the electric lock system is incorporated in the lock body, the electric lock system can be saved in space and the number of parts can be reduced. The manufacturing cost can be reduced, and a simplified and inexpensive electric lock system can be constructed. In addition, it is possible to avoid unauthorized locking and unlocking due to fraud from the outside, and to obtain high crime prevention. And since the freedom degree of wiring and an installation space increases, construction of various electric lock systems is realizable, without limiting installation equipment.

  In addition, since it is configured with an external interface, it is possible to construct a versatile electric lock system including conventional products by converting the data into the data that can be read by the main electric lock control means when data is input / output. it can. Furthermore, since another electric lock can be controlled in conjunction, a one-door two-lock system can be realized with a simple system configuration. In addition, since the driving of the interlocking device can also be controlled, a system capable of interlocking the device with, for example, an interphone can be constructed.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of an electric lock system including an electric lock with a control function according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing an embodiment in which the electric lock with a control function according to the present invention is operated with a commercial power source.

Various signals such as input / output of authentication information necessary for locking / unlocking and control signal input / output for controlling the device are encrypted and can be communicated via the communication input / output means 12.

  Here, the signal encryption processing will be described. Encryption means that data is converted according to a predetermined rule for input / output data and a password so that they cannot be seen or tampered with by a third party. For this encryption, a “key” corresponding to the encryption table is used, but there are public key encryption using two pairs of keys and secret key encryption using the same key for both. Examples of public key cryptography include RSA (Rivest Shamir Adleman), ElGamal cryptography, and elliptic curve cryptography. Examples of secret key cryptography include DES (Data Encryption Standard), IDEA (International Data Encryption Algorithm), FEAL (Fast Data Encipherment ALgorihtme), and MISTY. In addition to the processing using the public key encryption and the secret key encryption, scramble processing or the like can be used.

  Note that, for example, RS-485, Ethernet (registered trademark), or the like can be used as the communication input / output unit 12 in the above-described encrypted communication.

  The device information storage means 13 included in the main electric lock 1, the sub electric lock 2, the authentication information acquisition unit 3, and the power supply unit 4 has device information for identifying its own device in order to distinguish it from other devices. (For example, the manufacturer and model number) are assigned to each device and stored. This device information is registered as individual information at the beginning of operation. At the time of communication, a header is added to each device and device information is added, and the data is encrypted to be called. Thereby, the control which considered crime prevention is enabled.

  Moreover, the power supply part 4 shown in FIG. 3 is comprised by the battery unit in a door provided in the predetermined location of the door 15 so that attachment or detachment is possible. In this case, necessary power is supplied from the battery serving as the power supply unit 4 to the authentication information acquisition unit 3 and the main electric lock 1 and the sub electric lock 2 provided inside the lock body via wiring.

  Next, the operation of the electric lock system 20 that employs the main electric lock 1 that constitutes the electric lock with a control function according to the above-described configuration will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.

  In the electric lock system 20 of this example, for example, calling by an interphone as a calling device, locking / unlocking of the lock of the main electric lock 1 and the auxiliary electric lock 2 based on the authentication information acquired by the authentication information acquisition unit 3, Driving is performed. First, an operation when the interlocking device 5a is configured with an interphone and the interlocking device 5b is configured with an operation display will be described with reference to FIG.

  In a general house, for example, when a guest or a delivery person of a collection item presses the call button on the intercom (linked device 5a) provided at the front door, the landlord checks the caller on the operation display (linked device 5b). If the caller is allowed to enter the room, the unlock key is operated. Here, when the unlocking key is operated, the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 checks its own state (ST1). In this state check, the locking / unlocking state of the main electric lock 1 and the open / closed state of the door 15 are checked. Then, when the state check is completed, the control unit 1a of the main electric lock 1 makes an inquiry to the power supply unit 4 (ST2). When there is an inquiry from the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1, the power supply unit 4 receives various signals (for example, monitor display, unlock key operation) from the operation indicator (interlocking device 5b) connected to the device control panel 4a. (Unlocking signal or the like) is received (ST3).

  Then, the device control panel 4a of the power supply unit 4 checks what kind of signal the signal received from the interlocking device 5b is (ST4). After checking this signal, the received data is encrypted and sent as response data to the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 (ST5). The control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 receives the response data transmitted from the power supply unit 4 (ST6). Then, the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 analyzes the response data received from the power supply unit 4, and the unlocking signal in the analyzed data and the collation information (permitted unlocking previously stored in the storage means 1b). Corresponding to the signal), and when the collation matches, a drive signal is output to the drive means 1c of the main electric lock 1 to unlock the lock. Then, in conjunction with the unlocking of the lock, the unlocking control of the sub-electric lock 2 described later is performed.

  Next, an operation when the authentication information acquisition unit 3 acquires authentication information from the outside will be described with reference to FIG.

  For example, when an operation for unlocking (locking) the lock is performed from the outside by operating a remote control key, the authentication information acquisition unit 3 acquires a signal of the unlocking operation (locking operation) as authentication information. When the authentication information acquisition unit 3 acquires the authentication information, information indicating that the authentication information has been acquired is transmitted to the main electric lock 1 via the communication input / output means 12. When receiving information indicating that the authentication information has been acquired from the authentication information acquisition unit 3, the main electric lock 1 checks its own state (ST11). In this state check, the locking / unlocking state of the main electric lock 1 and the open / closed state of the door 15 are checked. And the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 will inquire authentication information to the authentication information acquisition part 3, if a state check is completed (ST12). The authentication information acquisition unit 3 acquires authentication information from outside by operating the remote control key, and the information recognition unit 3a recognizes the authentication information (ST13). Then, the authentication information acquisition unit 3 performs data formatting so that the acquired authentication information can be recognized by the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 (ST14). The data-formatted authentication information is encrypted and transmitted as response data to the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 (ST15). When receiving the response data from the authentication information acquisition unit 3 (ST16), the control unit 1a of the main electric lock 1 analyzes the encrypted authentication information, and stores the analyzed authentication information and the storage unit 13 in advance when the system is constructed. Is collated with the collation information stored in the table to determine whether or not it is specific authentication information (ST17). When the received authentication information is determined to be specific authentication information (ST17-Yes), a drive signal for unlocking (locking) the lock is output to the drive means 1c to unlock (lock) the lock. If the door is not opened within a predetermined time after the lock is unlocked, the lock is locked. On the other hand, if it is determined that the received authentication information is not the specific authentication information (ST17-No), a drive signal for unlocking (locking) is not output to the driving means 1c, and the lock is unlocked (locking). Is not done.

  Next, an operation related to the sub electric lock 2 controlled in conjunction with the main electric lock 1 during the locking / unlocking operation will be described with reference to FIG.

  When the lock of the main electric lock 1 is unlocked (locked) by the operation of either FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 described above, the main electric lock 1 inquires of the sub electric lock 2 about the state (ST21). When there is a state inquiry from the main electric lock 1, the control means 2a of the sub electric lock 2 checks its own state (ST22). Specifically, the locking / unlocking state of the sub electric lock 2 and the opening / closing state of the door 15 are checked. When the state check is completed, the control means 2a of the sub electric lock 2 unlocks its own lock (locking) based on the control signal (unlocking signal or locking signal) from the main electric lock 1 and its own state result. ) Control (ST23). Then, when the own lock is unlocked (locked), the control means 2a of the auxiliary electric lock 2 transmits information indicating the unlocked (locked) controlled state as response data to the main electric lock 1 (ST24). ). The control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 receives the response data transmitted from the sub electric lock 2 (ST25). And the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 recognizes the present locking / unlocking state of the sub electric lock 2 from the received response data. In conjunction with the above operation, the interlocking device 5 is driven by the control of the main electric lock 1.

  As described above, in the electric lock system 20 adopting the electric lock with a control function (main electric lock 1) of this example, the data is encrypted to communicate between the respective parts, and the lock is unlocked based on the authentication of the information. In order to perform control, external interfaces (power input / output means 11 and communication input / output means 12) based on a common command system independent of the type of lock and the number of locks are provided. Thus, by converting the data into data that can be processed by the control means 1a of the main electric lock 1 at the time of data input / output, the type or Regardless of the number of installations, an electric lock system having a wide range of versatility can be constructed, and crime prevention can be improved as compared with a conventional electric lock system.

  And the main electric lock 1 as an electric lock with a control function of this example is a structure in which the control means 1a for controlling and controlling each part of the electric lock system 20 is incorporated in the lock body. In addition, it is not necessary to secure a space for installing a separate control panel, so that the cost and space of the casing portion of the conventional electric lock control panel can be reduced, and illegal acts from the outside can be prevented. As a result, the degree of freedom of wiring and installation space is increased, the space for installing the electric lock system can be saved, the manufacturing cost can be reduced, and an inexpensive electric lock system excellent in crime prevention can be constructed.

  Since the main electric lock 1 of this example has a configuration including an external interface, a corresponding ID reading device (authentication information acquisition unit 3) can be directly connected via the external interface, and the electric lock system with an authentication function can be inexpensive. Can be built. In addition, the control interface in the electric lock system 20 is made common, so that it is easy to check the operation and identify the responsibility range.

  Moreover, in the electric lock system 20 of this example, since the part exposed to a door surface is only an ID reader (authentication information acquisition part 3), the design property of the door improved compared with the past.

  In addition, according to the electric lock system 20 of the present example, the sub electric lock 2 can be interlocked and controlled by the control of the main electric lock 1, so that the one-door two-lock system can be realized with a simple system configuration.

  Furthermore, the electric lock system 20 of this example can receive power supply from either a battery or a general DC power supply according to the operation, and obtain authentication information so as to be compatible with various unlocking means. The part is separated from the electric lock and is cabled between the interfaces. And by making this interface part common to a power supply line and a communication line, it can respond to various apparatuses (unlocking means) by facilitating the apparatus (unlocking means) according to this. In addition, since the power supply unit 4 including the device control panel 4a for driving the interlocking device on the same communication line can be connected, a system capable of device interlocking with an interphone or the like can be constructed.
