The server 107 includes a transmission / reception unit 23, a reservation certificate information registration unit 124, a reservation determination unit 125, a storage unit 126, a reservation certificate information transmission unit 27, an encryption unit 28, a control unit 129, a user determination unit 151, and a reservation information database 30. Etc. are provided.
In the reservation information database 30, as shown in FIG. 7A, when the reservation for the room 1 is made, the reservation proof information is registered (upper table), and the reservation proof information is updated by the reservation extension process described later. (Table below).

For example, the user determination unit 151 uses the employee database stored in the storage unit 126 (see FIG. 7B) to obtain a card such as employee ID information from the address of the transmission source of the e-mail of the reservation extension that has arrived at the server 107. Determine the unique information.
When the reservation determination unit 125 receives the reservation extension e-mail from the mobile phone 104, the reservation determination unit 125 determines the extension time zone of the room in which the application for the reservation extension has been applied based on the reservation certificate information registered in the reservation information database 30. It is determined whether it has already been reserved by another person.
The reservation proof information registering means 124 is a function for updating and registering the corresponding reservation date / time information 33 of the reservation proof information in the reservation information database 30 when the reservation determining means 125 determines that the room whose reservation is to be extended can be extended. Have
The reservation proof information updated in the reservation information database 30 is encrypted by the encryption means 28 and transmitted to the lock management device 106 via the transmission / reception means 23 by the reservation proof information transmission means 27.

  The reservation proof information encrypted and transmitted to the lock management device 106 via the transmission / reception means 48 is decrypted by the decryption means 39 of the lock management device 106 and has a function of writing the reservation proof information into the storage means 44. The information registration unit 142 performs update registration in the storage unit 44.

  A database related to the room reservation management system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 7A shows the reservation information database 30 before the reservation extension, and the lower table shows the reservation information database 30 after the reservation extension. When an application for reservation extension is made by a user whose card specific information, which is the member ID information of the member, is “d0151”, according to the upper table of FIG. 7A, the room number information 32 has the same room number “05”. ”And there is no reservation at the time from“ 5/10 12:00 ”which is the time immediately after the reservation date and time included in the reservation date and time information 33. Therefore, it is possible to extend the reservation of the room 1 being used, and the reservation date / time information 33 of the corresponding data is extended by 30 minutes and updated as “5/10 10: 0 to 12:30” as shown in the table below. (A).

  FIG. 7B shows a part of an employee database stored in the storage unit 126, for example. It consists of a mail address 1261 and card specific information 1262 which is employee ID information. The employee's e-mail address and employee ID information are stored in advance in association with the storage means 126. For example, when the e-mail address received by the server 107 is “d0151@xxx.xx.xx”, it is understood that the card specific information 1262 that is the employee ID information of the employee is “d0151”. The email address may be an address that does not include employee ID information such as “abc@xxx.xx.xx”.

  Next, a reservation extension processing procedure of the room reservation management system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the flowchart of FIG.

First, another user who extends the reservation for a room transmits an e-mail for applying for a reservation extension from the mobile phone 104 to the server 107 (step S101). An application for an extended reservation is made by sending a blank mail (only the destination is specified and nothing is entered thereafter) to a predetermined mail address of the server 107.
Next, when the server 107 receives the e-mail (step S102), the user determination unit 151 of the server 107 reads the e-mail address of the transmission source from the employee database (FIG. 7B) stored in the storage unit 126. Employee ID information corresponding to the e-mail is determined, and the sender of the e-mail is specified (step S103).

Then, the server 107 determines whether the user can use the room reserved at the present time (step S104). Whether or not the user can use the reserved room is the date and time when the reservation date and time information 33 in the reservation information database 30 includes the current time, and the email address of the reserved employee ID information 31 or the user member employee ID information 34 Judgment is made based on whether there is data corresponding to the employee ID information.
If the user can use the reserved room (step S104: Y), the server 107 determines whether the reservation can be extended (step S105). The reservation extension is performed in units of 30 minutes, for example, and whether or not the reservation extension is possible is the same room number data as the user, and the reservation information database whose date and time are duplicated when it is extended 30 minutes from the registered reservation date and time Judgment is made based on whether there are 30 data.
If the reservation can be extended (step S105: Y), the reservation certificate information registration unit 124 of the server 107 updates the reservation information database 30 by extending the reservation date and time by 30 minutes (step S106).
Then, the server 107 returns an e-mail indicating that the reservation has been extended to the e-mail address of the transmission source (step S107), and ends this process.
On the other hand, if the user is not a user who can use the reserved room at the present time (step S104: N) or if the reservation cannot be extended (step S105: N), the server 107 transmits an e-mail indicating that the reservation cannot be extended. A reply is made to the original mail address (step S108), and this process is terminated.

The second embodiment includes the following forms.
(1) Although the corresponding data in the reservation information database 30 is updated at the time of reservation, the present invention is not limited to this, and data for a reservation extension whose date / time has been changed may be newly created and registered.
(2) The case where the e-mail is directly transmitted from the mobile phone 104 to the server 107 has been described. However, the e-mail transmission destination from the mobile phone 104 is set as an authorized person such as a supervisor, and the authorized person approves it. An e-mail may be transmitted from the authorized person to the server 107. In that case, by registering an e-mail address that allows e-mail reservation extension in the employee database, only authorized persons can extend the reservation, and security can be improved.

(3) The case where the reservation is extended using the e-mail function of the mobile phone 104 has been described. However, the server 107 is provided with a Web function, and the reservation is extended by transmitting and receiving a Web page between the server 107 and the mobile phone 104. You may go.
(4) Although the case where communication between the server 107 and the mobile phone 104 is performed via the network 110 has been described, the communication may be performed via the network 10 that performs communication between the server 107 and the communication terminal 5 or the lock management device 106. Good.
(5) In the case where a reservation is possible by sending an empty mail from the mobile phone 104 to the server 107, the case where the extension is made in units of 30 minutes has been described. Alternatively, the input time may be extended. Further, the terminal is not limited to a mobile phone, and any terminal can be used as long as it can transmit an e-mail.

(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the room reservation management system to which the present invention is applied will be described. In the third embodiment, another process in the case of making an extension reservation for a reserved room is shown.
In the following description and drawings, parts that perform the same functions as those of the first embodiment described above are given the same reference numerals or the same reference numerals at the end, and redundant descriptions are omitted as appropriate.

FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating the system configuration of a room reservation management system according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
In the room reservation management system according to the third embodiment of the present invention, the reservation time can be extended when using the room 1 reserved by the initial reservation person and other users. The new reservation method for the room 1 is the same as in the first embodiment. One person who uses the room 1 once goes out of the room 1 and uses the IC card 3 to cause the IC card reader / writer 208 of the lock management device 206 to “two-touch” the IC card 3. By this, the reservation time is extended. Here, the two-touch means that after establishing communication by bringing the IC card 3 close to the IC card reader / writer 208, for example, the communication is disconnected by moving the IC card 3 away from the IC card reader / writer 208, and the IC card is reconnected within one second. This means establishing communication between the card 3 and the IC card reader / writer 208.

The server 207 includes transmission / reception means 223, reservation certificate information registration means 224, reservation determination means 25, storage means 26, reservation certificate information transmission means 27, encryption means 28, control means 29, reservation information database 30, and the like. .
In the reservation information database 30, when a reservation is made, the reservation certificate information is registered, and the reservation certificate information is updated by a reservation extension process.
The transmission / reception means 223 receives the reservation extension certification information from the locking management apparatus 206 in addition to transmitting the booking certification information reserved by the communication terminal 5 to the locking management apparatus 206.
The reservation certificate information registration unit 224 has a function of updating and registering the reservation date / time information 33 of the corresponding data of the reservation certificate information in the reservation information database 30 based on the reservation extension certificate information received from the transmission / reception unit 223.

The control means 237 of the IC card reader / writer 208 determines whether the contact by the IC card 3 is normal touch or two-touch, and if it is two-touch, sends the reservation extension application information to the lock management device 206.
The determination means 241 of the lock management device 206 determines the reservation proof information of the reserved room from the reservation proof information received from the server 207 and stored in the storage means 44, and is behind the reservation time of the reservation proof information. It is determined whether time is available and the reservation can be extended. If the reservation can be extended, the verification unit 45 checks the reservation certificate information registration unit 242 and updates the reservation certificate information in the storage unit 44. Further, the transmission / reception means 248 transmits the booking certification information to the server 207. At that time, whether or not the extension reservation has been made, such as providing a lighting means (not shown) in the lock management device 206 and lighting the blue lamp when the reservation can be extended, and the red lamp when the extension is impossible. It is good to let users know.

In the third embodiment, the following form may be used.
(1) When the reservation certification information is transmitted from the lock management device 206 to the server 207, the reservation certificate information may be encrypted by the lock management device 206 and decrypted by the server 207. By doing so, security can be further improved.
(2) The case where the determination unit 241 of the lock management device 206 determines whether or not the reservation extension is possible has been described. However, the reservation extension application information is transmitted from the lock management device 206 to the server 207, and the server 207 receives the reservation. It may be determined whether extension is possible. This is because the server 207 has reservation certification information of a plurality of connected lock management devices 206. If the server 207 determines that the reservation is extended, and if the reservation can be extended, the reservation certification information is transmitted to the lock management device 206 and registered in the storage unit 44. In addition, the corresponding data in the reservation information database 30 is updated at the time of reservation. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and data for reservation extension may be newly created and registered.

(3) The control means 237 of the IC card reader / writer 8 is controlled to recognize the reservation extension when the IC card 3 is “two-touched” to the IC card reader / writer 208. However, the IC card 3 and the IC card reader / writer are controlled. The control unit 237 may be controlled so as to recognize that the reservation is extended by “long-time touch” that establishes communication with 208 for 3 seconds or longer, for example. In addition, it may be controlled to recognize the reservation extension by another communication establishment method different from “one-touch” which is establishment of communication between the normal IC card 3 and the IC card reader / writer 208.
(4) The case where the determination based on the communication establishment recognized as the reservation extension is performed by the control means 237 of the IC card reader / writer 208 has been described. However, the communication establishment state is transmitted to the lock management device 206 and the lock management device 206 You may make it judge.
(5) The case where the IC card 3 is extended to the IC card reader / writer 8 by “two-touch” to be extended by 30 minutes when reservation is possible has been described. However, the extension time may be arbitrary. Further, the lock management device 206 may be provided with input means such as a numeric keypad so that the user can input an arbitrary extension time.

(Fourth embodiment)
Next, a fourth embodiment of a room reservation management system to which the present invention is applied will be described.
In the fourth embodiment, a time zone in which a room can be used can be designated for each user in the time zone in which the room is reserved.
In the following description and drawings, parts that perform the same functions as those of the first embodiment described above are given the same reference numerals or the same reference numerals at the end, and redundant descriptions are omitted as appropriate.

FIG. 10 explains the registration contents of the reservation information database 430 of the server of the room reservation management system according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. The reservation information database 430 shown in FIG. 10 includes room information (FIG. 10A) regarding a reserved room and user information (FIG. 10B) regarding a user who uses the reserved room.
The room information shown in FIG. 10A includes reserved employee ID information 431 that is unique information read from the storage means 11 of the IC card 3 of the person who reserved the room, and room specifying information for specifying the room to be reserved. Room number information 432, reservation date / time information 433 indicating the reservation time zone of the room which is the longest reservation time zone indicating the first to last time among the time zones reserved by a plurality of user members, Reservation ID information 435 uniquely set by a server 407 (not shown) to associate with user information (FIG. 10B) is associated and registered.

The user information shown in FIG. 10B includes reservation ID information 441 for associating with room information (FIG. 10A), and user member employee ID information that can identify a user of the room. 442 and reservation date information 443 indicating the time zone used by the user member employee are associated and registered.
Thus, by having a reservation date and time for each user, for example, even when the user on the interview side is different for each time such as an interview, entrance management to the appropriately reserved room can be performed. Therefore, it is possible to precisely manage entry into the reserved room.
The reservation information database 430 described with reference to FIG. 10 uses room information and user information as separate tables in order to deepen understanding.

Next, a case where a user who has reserved in advance adds a user while using the reserved room will be described. Here, it is described that the user of the room reserved by the reservation person is added, but the user of the room reserved by another user who uses the reserved room can be added.
FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a user addition processing procedure of the room reservation management system according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention.
First, the user who is using the room once goes out of the room and sets the user's IC card 3 in the IC card reader / writer 4 provided in the communication terminal 5 (step S201). In addition, when the communication terminal 5 is provided in the room, the communication terminal 5 is used.
Next, the user inputs reservation change instruction information regarding the additional user from the input means 18 of the communication terminal 5 (step S202). The reservation change instruction information is, for example, room specifying information for specifying a reserved room, reservation date / time information indicating a time zone used by an additional user, and user specifying information for specifying an additional user. User specific information refers to card-specific information such as employee ID information of additional users.
Then, the communication terminal 5 transmits reservation change instruction information to the server 407 together with card-specific information such as employee ID information of the user stored in the IC card 3 and read by the IC card reader / writer 4 (step S203). ).

The server 407 searches the reservation information database 430 for the corresponding reservation certification information based on the card-specific information such as the employee ID information of the user received from the communication terminal 5 and the reservation change instruction information (step S204).
The server 407 updates the corresponding booking certification information in the booking information database 430 obtained by the search, and adds the additional user information (step S205). Specifically, the card unique information which is the employee ID information of the additional user is added to the card unique information such as the user member employee ID information of the user information in the reservation information database 430 in FIG. The usage time of the additional user is added to the information.
The server 407 transmits the reservation certification information added with the user from the reservation information database 430 to the lock management device 6 (step S206).
Through the above processing, an additional user is added to the reservation of the room being used by the user.

Next, processing when an additional user enters the room will be described.
The additional user goes to the entrance of the reserved room according to an instruction from another user such as a telephone, and the employee ID information stored in the IC card 3 is stored in the IC card reader / writer 8 of the lock management device 6. The card unique information is read (step S221).
Next, in the IC card reader / writer 8 of the lock management device 6, the card-specific information that is the employee ID information of the additional user stored in the IC card 3 is stored in the reservation certificate stored in the storage means 44 of the lock management device 6. It is determined whether or not the information is included (step S222).
If it is determined in this determination that the booking proof information includes additional user information, the lock management device 6 permits entry (step S223), and the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in this determination that the booking certificate information does not include the additional user information, the lock management device 6 refuses to enter the room (step S224), and the process is terminated. Here, permitting entry means, for example, unlocking the entrance door of a locked room.
Through the above processing, the additional user can enter the reserved room.

  As described above, the room reservation management system according to the present invention communicates not only with the user of the room registered at the time of initial reservation, but also after using the reserved room or while using the reserved room. A user can be added by registering an additional user from the terminal 5. Only those who are reserved in the reservation information database 430 can enter the room, and therefore, additional users can 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, and security can be ensured by making it change only to a specific person.

In the fourth embodiment, the following forms may be used.
A password for entering the room and an entrance ticket can be prepared and registered in the reservation information database 430 in advance. In this case, the user who knows the password teaches the password to the additional user, and the additional user inputs the password from the communication terminal 5 and writes the entrance ticket into the IC card 3. The additional user can enter the room by causing the IC card reader / writer 8 of the lock management device 6 to read the entry ticket.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to embodiment mentioned above. In addition, the effects described in the embodiments are merely a list of the most preferable effects resulting from the present invention, and the effects of the present invention are not limited to those described in the embodiments.
