This also means that only those who are reserved in the reservation status information database 230 can enter the room. Therefore, it is possible to provide a system that allows additional users to enter the room while maintaining high security. Moreover, the person who can add a user can be limited to the user of the reserved room including the reservation person who reserved the room, and security can be ensured by permitting a change only to a specific person.

(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the room reservation management system to which the present invention is applied will be described.
In the second embodiment described above, one of the users needs to register an additional user from the communication terminal 5, but in the third embodiment, by preparing a ticket for entering the room in advance, The user can enter the room without registering from the communication terminal 5.
In the following description and drawings, parts that perform the same functions as those in the first embodiment or the second embodiment described above are given the same reference numerals or the same reference numerals at the end, and repeated descriptions are omitted as appropriate. To do.

FIG. 9 explains the registration contents of the reservation status information database 330 of the server 206 (not shown) of the room reservation management system according to the third embodiment of the present invention. The reservation status information database 330 illustrated in FIG. 9 is stored in the server 206. The reservation employee ID information 331, which is unique information read from the storage means 10 of the IC card 3 of the person who made the room reservation, the room number information 332, which is room specifying information for specifying the room to be reserved, Reservation date / time information 333 indicating the reservation time zone of the room, which is the longest reservation time zone indicating the first to last time among the reservation time zones used by other user members, and the user who identifies the user of the room User member employee ID information 334 of the room, which is specific information, and password information 336 for obtaining an entrance ticket are associated and registered. The entrance ticket is key information for entering the reserved room.
The reservation status information database 330 is provided with password information 336 in comparison with the reservation status information database 30 described in the first embodiment, and the user member employee ID information 334 includes the reserved employee ID information. All employees have employee ID information.

Next, a user addition processing procedure using a password in the room reservation management system according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. Before explaining the procedure for adding a user, the following processing is performed by the user who reserved the room.
At the time of the initial reservation, a password which is an arbitrary character string predetermined by the user is registered. The registered password is registered in the reservation status information database 330, and an entry ticket associated with the password is issued by the server 206. The issued entry ticket is registered in the server 206 in association with the password. The entrance ticket is also written together with the reservation certification information by the IC card reader / writer 4 from the communication terminal 5 to the IC card 3 of the user who uses the room reserved at the time of reservation. Thereafter, the user causes the IC card reader / writer 7 of the locking management device 8 to read the information stored in the IC card 3, whereby the entrance ticket is stored together with the reservation certification information in the storage means 43 of the locking management device 8. The

Returning to FIG. 10, first, the additional user 102 who additionally uses the reserved room obtains the password from the user who set the password by other means such as an extension telephone. Then, the additional user 102 sets the IC card 3 in the IC card reader / writer 4 included in the communication terminal 5 (step S201).
Next, the additional user 102 inputs the password obtained from the user from the input means 17 of the communication terminal 5 (step S202). The password input from the input unit 17 is transmitted to the server 206. Then, based on the password received from the communication terminal 5, the server 206 searches the reservation status information database 330 for reservation proof information that matches the password (step S203).
Next, the server 206 determines whether there is reservation certification information with a matching password from the reservation status information database 330 (step S204). If there is matching booking proof information (step S204: Y), the server 206 transmits room entry permission information, which is a room entry ticket associated with the password, to the communication terminal 5 (step S206). On the other hand, if there is no matching booking proof information (step S204: N), the server 206 transmits an error message to the communication terminal 5 (step S205), and ends this process.
The communication terminal 5 receives the room entry permission information from the server 206 and writes the room entry permission information from the IC card reader / writer 4 into the storage means 10 of the IC card 3 of the additional user 102 (step S207). Here, the room entry permission information is a room entry ticket, and is key information that allows the user to enter the reserved room even if the user information is not registered in the reservation status information database 330 as reservation certification information. Since this entrance ticket is associated with a password registered in association with the booking certification information, it is issued for each booking certification information, that is, for each booking.

Next, the additional user 102 goes to the lock management device 8 of the room he / she wants to use, and causes the IC card reader / writer 7 of the lock management device 8 to read the room entry permission information stored in the storage means 10 of the IC card 3 ( Step S211).
Then, it is determined whether or not the room entry permission information stored in the storage unit 10 of the IC card 3 matches the room entry permission information stored in the storage unit 43 of the lock management device 8 (step S212). If the room entry permission information matches (step S212: Y), the lock management device 8 permits room entry (step S213), and ends this process. Permitting entry means, for example, unlocking the entrance door by the lock opening / closing means 42. On the other hand, if the room entry permission information does not match (step S212: N), the lock management device 8 refuses room entry (step S214), and the process is terminated. Refusing to enter the room means, for example, that the lock of the entrance door is kept locked by the lock opening / closing means 42.

  In this way, a user who has reserved a room prepares a password, so that an entrance ticket is issued, and a person who has succeeded in authentication using the password can acquire the entrance ticket. Therefore, an additional user who joins in the middle can enter the room without performing a special operation by the user who is using the reserved room. In addition, password authentication makes it possible to exchange entrance tickets while maintaining security.
