Here, although the number of units is omitted with a dotted line in FIG. 1, a plurality of notification devices 20 are provided. In addition, the base station 10 and each notification device 20 are connected to a telecommunication line 30.

  The base station 10 delivers emergency information regarding disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis. As the emergency information, for example, information obtained by editing information issued by the Japan Meteorological Agency can be used. The emergency information includes information such as the type of disaster and the time until the disaster occurs. For example, in the case of emergency information related to an earthquake, the emergency information includes an epicenter, a magnitude, an expected seismic intensity at a position where each notification device 20 exists, and a time until an earthquake reaches a position where each notification device 20 exists. Etc. are included. Therefore, the base station 10 needs to recognize in advance the installation position (current position) of each notification device 20, and according to the installation position (current position), the base information 10 Edit the contents. Here, the base station 10 recognizes (obtains) the installation position of each notification device 20 based on position information transmitted from each notification device 20 described later.

  In FIG. 1, only one base station 10 is illustrated. However, there may naturally be a plurality of the base stations 10 and each base station 10 may be connected to a telecommunication line.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an internal configuration of the notification device 20 according to the present embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the notification device 20 includes a communication unit (which can be grasped as a reception unit) 21 that receives emergency information transmitted from the base station 10. In addition, the notification device 20 has a control unit (which can be grasped as a notification content determination unit) 23 that determines notification contents representing matters to be implemented before the occurrence of a disaster based on information included in the emergency information received by the communication unit 21. I have. In addition, the notification device 20 includes a notification unit (for example, a display unit 25 and / or a voice unit 26 described later) that notifies the notification content determined by the control unit.

  Each notification device 20 is equipped with position information acquisition means (not shown) such as GPS, and can acquire position information indicating the position of the own device (note that the notification device 20 is a mobile type). If not, the user or the like can manually set the installation position of the notification device 20). Then, the obtained and set position information is transmitted to the base station 10 via the communication unit 21 together with the identification information of the notification device 20. Note that the base station 10 manages the identification information and the position information in pairs.

  Moreover, the alerting | reporting apparatus 20 is provided with the memory | storage part 22 as shown in FIG. In the storage unit 22, at least one or more of the notification contents representing matters to be implemented before the occurrence of a disaster such as an earthquake are stored in advance. Examples of the notification contents include information such as “close the gas main valve”, “open the door”, “go outside”, “get down to the first floor of the house”, “the child gathers at the mother's place”, etc. be able to.

  Moreover, the alerting | reporting apparatus 20 is provided with the setting information storage part 27, as shown in FIG. The setting information storage unit 27 stores setting information related to notification contents. Here, the “setting information regarding the notification content” includes “simple setting information” and “recognition information” shown below.

  The “simple setting information” can include, for example, information indicating a location where the notification device 20 is installed. Further, the “recognition information” is, for example, result information that identifies which user is obtained from the scan result of the notification device 20 scanning the user's face.

  The notification device 20 (more specifically, the control unit (which can be grasped as the notification content determination unit) 23) is based on the information included in the emergency information, from the notification content stored in the storage unit 22, At least one or more predetermined notification contents are automatically determined and read. Furthermore, the control unit 23 determines the predetermined notification content and also determines the priority for notifying the predetermined notification information.

  For example, when the emergency information received by the communication unit 21 includes information about the time until the arrival of the earthquake, the control unit 23 can at least be implemented by the time according to the length of the time. One or more predetermined notification contents are determined together with the priority of the action indicated in the predetermined notification contents. Therefore, in this case, the storage unit 22 also includes information on the predicted time until the action related to each notification content is completed, information on the priority of the action related to each notification content, etc., corresponding to each notification content. Must be stored together.

  Further, the notification device 20 (more specifically, the control unit (which can be grasped as the notification content determination unit) 23) includes information included in the emergency information and setting information regarding the notification content ("simple setting information" and / or " Based on the “recognition information”), at least one or more predetermined notification contents may be automatically determined from the notification contents stored in the storage unit 22 and read out. Further, the control unit 23 may determine the predetermined notification contents and also determine the priority for notifying the predetermined notification information.

  For example, when the setting information (especially “mere setting information”) related to the notification content is stored in the setting information storage unit 27 in advance, when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information, Based on the notification contents stored in the storage unit 22, the control unit 23 determines at least one or more predetermined notification contents together with the priority of the action indicated in the predetermined notification contents.

  In the storage unit 22, items such as “stop the stove fire” and “go to the place where the mother is” are stored as notification contents. It is assumed that “simple setting information” that is “children's room” has been set in advance. In this case, the control unit 23 determines and reads out the notification content “go to the place where the mother is” from the notification content stored in the storage unit 22 as the predetermined notification content. When a plurality of predetermined notification contents are determined and read based on “simple setting information”, the control unit 23 also determines the priority of the action indicated in the predetermined notification contents.

  Therefore, it is necessary to associate each notification content with “simple setting information” regarding each notification content in the storage unit 22, and information related to the priority of actions related to each notification content is also stored. There is a need.

  In addition, when setting information (particularly “recognition information”) regarding notification contents is set (recorded) in advance in the setting information storage unit 27, when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information, the recognition information Based on the above, the control unit 23 determines at least one or more predetermined notification contents from the notification contents stored in the storage unit 22 together with the priority of the action indicated in the predetermined notification contents.

  For example, in the storage unit 22, “stop the stove fire” and “go to the place where the mother is” are stored as notification contents, and the predetermined notification device 20 performs a person identification process in advance, A case is assumed where recognition information that a person in the vicinity of the predetermined notification device 20 is a mother has been obtained (note that the recognition information is stored in, for example, the setting information storage unit 27, so Set as configuration information). In this case, the control unit 23 determines and reads out the notification content “stop the stove fire” as the predetermined notification content from the notification content stored in the storage unit 22. When a plurality of predetermined notification contents are determined and read based on the recognition information, the priority of the preparatory action indicated in the predetermined notification contents is also determined.

  Therefore, the storage unit 22 needs to associate each neglected content with each piece of recognition information, and also needs to store information on the priority of actions related to each notification content.

  In the above description, for ease of explanation, the control unit 23 is stored in the storage unit 22 based on any one of information included in emergency information, simple setting information, and recognition information. Reference was made to determining at least one or more predetermined notification contents together with priority from a plurality of notification contents. However, processing such as reading and determination by the control unit 23 may be performed based only on information included in the emergency information, and setting information (simply setting information regarding information included in the emergency information and notification content). And / or recognition information).

  Now, as described above, when the control unit 23 determines and reads at least one predetermined notification content together with the priority, the notification unit (for example, the display unit 25 or the voice unit 26) is under the control of the control unit 23. The predetermined notification content determined according to the priority order is notified.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the notification device 20 may include a light emitting unit 24 that emits light when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information. When the communication unit 21 receives emergency information, the light emitting unit 24 may blink intermittently or may continue to light. As the light emitting unit 24, for example, a light emitting diode can be employed.

  Further, predetermined character data is stored in the storage unit 22, and as shown in FIG. 2, the notification device 20 displays information included in the emergency information and the predetermined notification content in characters (that is, the character data). The display unit 25 may be provided.

  For example, in the case of earthquake early warning, when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information, the display unit 25 uses the predetermined character data stored in the storage unit 22 under the control of the control unit 23. Information such as “seismic intensity” and “time until earthquake occurrence (arrival)” included in the emergency information is displayed. Furthermore, under the control of the control unit 23, the display unit 25 displays at least one or more predetermined notification contents read from the storage unit 22 using predetermined character data stored in the storage unit 22. (For example, characters such as “open the door” and “close the gas main valve” are displayed in the order of priority).

  As shown in FIG. 2, the notification device 20 may include an audio unit 26 that notifies (informs) the information included in the emergency information and the predetermined notification content by voice.

  For example, in the case of earthquake early warning, when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information, predetermined audio data stored in the storage unit 22 is reproduced under the control of the control unit 23, and the emergency unit 26 Information such as “seismic intensity” and “time until earthquake occurrence (arrival)” included in the information is output as voice. Further, under the control of the control unit 23, the audio unit 26 reproduces at least one or more predetermined notification contents read from the storage unit 22 and predetermined audio data stored in the storage unit 22. (For example, “open the door”, “close the main gas valve”, etc. are output as voices in the order of priority).

  The predetermined notification content may be displayed (notified) on the display unit 25 and may be output (notified) as audio from the audio unit 26, or may be notified in either one. In addition, information included in the emergency information and notification content may be notified through the display unit 25 and / or the audio unit 26 while the light emitting unit 24 emits light.

  As described above, in the notification device 20 according to the present embodiment, the control unit (notification content determination unit) 23 is to be implemented before the occurrence of the disaster based on the information included in the emergency information received by the communication unit 21. The notification content representing is determined. And the alerting | reporting part alert | reports the said determined alerting | reporting content.

  Therefore, even when a user recognizes the occurrence of a disaster in advance by emergency information, the user can perform a necessary action in a short time before the disaster occurs by notifying an accurate instruction based on the notification content. it can.

  In addition, in the notification device 20 according to the present embodiment, the control unit (notification content determination unit) 23 stores the notification content stored in the storage unit 22 based on the emergency information and / or the setting information related to the notification content. From the inside, at least one or more predetermined notification contents and a priority for notifying the predetermined notification contents are determined. And the alerting | reporting part alert | reports the said predetermined alerting | reporting content in order according to the said priority.

  Therefore, for example, the time until the occurrence (arrival) of a disaster such as an earthquake (information included in the emergency information), the installation location of the notification device 20 (setting information related to the notification content, particularly mere setting information), and the notification device 20 For example, according to a result of recognizing a person existing in the vicinity of the aircraft (for example, setting information related to the notification content, particularly recognition information), the control unit 23 determines an appropriate predetermined notification content. The priority is determined in descending order, and the notification unit can notify the predetermined notification content. Therefore, the user can quickly carry out disaster preparation suitable for the situation where the user exists before the occurrence of the disaster.

  In addition, the notification device 20 according to the present embodiment includes a light emitting unit 24 that emits light when emergency information is received. Therefore, the user can recognize that the notification device 20 has received emergency information related to a disaster such as an earthquake.

  In addition, the notification device 20 according to the present embodiment includes a display unit 25 that displays (for example, displays in characters) information included in emergency information and predetermined notification contents. Therefore, the user can reliably and easily recognize information such as the scale of the disaster and the time until the occurrence (arrival) of the disaster, and matters to be performed before the disaster occurs (predetermined notification contents). .

  In addition, the notification device 20 according to the present embodiment includes an audio unit 26 that notifies the information included in the emergency information and the predetermined notification content by voice. Accordingly, even if the user does not always pay attention to the notification device 20, the information such as the scale of the disaster and the time until the occurrence (arrival) of the disaster, and before the disaster occurs are surely and easily performed. Matters (predetermined notification contents) to be recognized can be recognized.

  The notification device 20 is distributed on the communication unit 21 via the telecommunication line 30 with predetermined characters (for example, mail), voice (for example, voice and music distributed on the WEB), and image information (for example, on the WEB). (Images such as moving images and video) may be received. The notification unit 20 may provide the received predetermined character information and the like via the display unit 25 and / or the voice unit 26. In the case of adopting the configuration, when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information from the base station 10, the notification unit (the display unit 25 and / or the voice unit 26) may include information included in the emergency information or the predetermined information. Is notified with priority over the predetermined character, voice, music, image, and video information. In addition, the alerting | reporting apparatus 20 may be incorporated in the television.

  Therefore, when the above configuration is adopted, even when the user is transmitting and receiving predetermined character information transmitted via the telecommunication line 30, the user can quickly see that a disaster occurs. Can be recognized.

  Moreover, the air conditioner (for example, indoor unit) which can perform air-conditioning driving | operations, such as air conditioning, is the structure shown in FIG. 2, and employ | adopts the structure provided with the alerting | reporting apparatus 20 which can implement each operation | movement mentioned above. You can also. Here, the air conditioner including the notification device 20 includes a standby power supply unit (not shown). The standby power supply unit can supply power to at least the communication unit 21 even when the air conditioner is not operating air conditioning (referred to as a standby state).

  Therefore, even if the air conditioner is in the standby state, the communication unit 21 can normally receive the emergency information. When the communication unit 21 receives the emergency information in the standby state, at least the main power source of the notification device 20 is automatically turned on. And the alerting | reporting part of the alerting | reporting apparatus 20 alert | reports the information contained in emergency information and the said predetermined alerting | reporting content (visually and / or auditorily alerting | reporting).

  As described above, by adopting the air conditioner including the notification device 20 and the standby power supply unit, it is not always necessary to keep the main power supply of the notification device 20 or the air conditioner on. Therefore, the information contained in the emergency information and the predetermined notification content can be notified when emergency information is received from the base station 10 while saving power to the notification device 20 and the air conditioner.

  When the air conditioner is operating air conditioning in a configuration in which the air conditioner includes the notification device 20, the notification unit displays the status of the air conditioning operation (information on air conditioning temperature, wind speed, air volume, etc.). Notification (display) may be performed. However, when the emergency information is received, the notification unit preferentially notifies the information included in the emergency information and the predetermined notification content.

  In addition, when the air conditioner includes the notification device 20 as described above, when the communication unit 21 receives emergency information from the base station 10 during the air conditioning operation of the air conditioner, the air conditioner The conditioner forcibly stops the operation of the air conditioner.

  As a result, when emergency information is received, the air conditioning operation of the air conditioner is stopped. Therefore, the refrigerant pipe is damaged due to a disaster such as an earthquake during the air conditioning operation, and high-pressure refrigerant is ejected to the surroundings. Can be prevented. In addition, it is possible to prevent the air conditioner itself from being damaged by an earthquake or the like, exposing the electrical parts during the air conditioning operation, and causing an electric shock or ignition due to tracking due to the exposed electrical parts.

  In recent years, since air conditioners (indoor units) are provided in a plurality of rooms in a family, an air conditioner including a notification device 20 can be used to provide a notification unit in any room of the house. Can be provided with information included in the emergency information to be notified and the predetermined notification content.

  In the above description, the storage unit 22 and the setting information storage unit 27 are separate circuits. However, the storage unit 22 and the setting information storage unit 27 can be configured as a single storage unit.

  In the above, the notification device 20 includes the storage unit 24 in which the notification content is stored, and the base station 10 that knows the installation position of each notification device 20 is independent of each notification device 20. A description has been given of a mode for transmitting information on earthquakes (for example, seismic intensity, arrival time of earthquakes) and the like. However, there are other forms as follows.

  That is, in the said other form, the base station 10 does not grasp | ascertain (acquire) the exact installation position of each alerting | reporting apparatus 20. FIG. On the other hand, in each notification device 20, setting information related to the installation position is set in the own device. For example, an area is divided into a plurality of 1 km square sections, and a plurality of calculation points (which can be grasped as the center points of the sections) are set in the disaster notification system. And in each alerting | reporting apparatus 20, the calculation point nearest to an own machine is selected and set as setting information.

  When the base station 10 predicts (or detects) the occurrence of an earthquake in a state where the setting information is set in each notification device 20, data to be described later is transmitted to each notification device 20 in common. That is, the data includes, as header information, information relating to the magnitude and occurrence time of the earthquake, and the data is further divided into a plurality of divided areas. Here, each division area is provided corresponding to each calculation point, and the division area includes information on the seismic intensity of the earthquake and the arrival time of the earthquake at the corresponding calculation point. Note that the seismic intensity, the earthquake arrival time, and the like for each calculation point are calculated by the base station 10, for example.

  Each notification device 20 (specifically, the receiving unit 21) receives the data that is emergency information. Then, the notification content determination unit 23 sets the header information and the segment area corresponding to the own device based on the emergency information and the setting information (information on the calculation point closest to the own device) set in advance in the own device. The information (earthquake intensity, earthquake arrival time, etc.) contained in is selected (determined) as an item to be notified. And the alerting | reporting parts 25 and 26 alert | report the said matter which should be alert | reported determined by the alerting | reporting content determination part 23. FIG. In addition, when the notification device 20 has the storage unit 24 in which the notification content is stored, as described above, the predetermined notification content (information representing matters to be implemented before the occurrence of the disaster) together with the notification. Can be notified in order of priority.

  Further, as described below, when the notification content is stored in the storage unit 24, the notification content stored in the storage unit 24 can be edited by an external operation.

  For example, if the web server is built in the notification device 20, the notification contents in the storage unit 24 and the priority order of the notification contents are changed / edited by remote operation from a personal computer, a portable terminal or the like using the HTTP protocol. be able to. In addition, while displaying a list of notification contents on the television screen, the notification contents stored in the storage unit 24 and the priority order of the notification contents can be changed / edited using the remote controller of the television. The air conditioner can also be edited while being displayed using the display unit of the remote controller.

  Similarly, when the notification content is an audio file, the notification content can be updated by recording and uploading with a personal computer or a portable terminal.

  Further, the notification device 20 may be installed in a public facility or a vehicle. By placing the notification device 20 in the public facility or vehicle, even people who have visited places that are not known for the first time to visit places or buildings, etc. It can be performed.
