Performing a notification step of notifying the server, wherein the server receives a notification from the gateway and makes a call to the home telephone and a predetermined telephone registered in advance; and the home telephone And a connection step of connecting the predetermined telephone.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a home security system and a warning support method with a higher threatening effect to an intruder.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

  FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a home security system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The home security system shown includes a server 11 installed in a service center and a gateway 13 installed in a home 10.

  The gateway 13 notifies the server 11 via the network 12 that an intruder has been detected in the home 10. That is, the gateway 13 is connected to a plurality of sensors such as the human sensor 14, the door sensor 15, and the glass break sensor 16, and determines whether or not an intruder has been detected based on an abnormal signal output from each sensor.

  The human sensor 14 detects an intruder by, for example, movement or change of a heat ray radiated by a person in the room, and outputs an abnormal signal to the gateway 13. The door sensor 15 detects the opening / closing of the door and outputs an abnormal signal to the gateway 13. The glass breaking sensor 16 detects vibration when the glass is broken and outputs an abnormal signal to the gateway 13. The illustrated sensors 14, 15, and 16 are merely examples, and the sensors connected to the gateway 13 are not limited thereto.

  When the gateway 13 receives an abnormal signal from one of the sensors in a state in which it is set in a warning mode in which the resident is out, the network 13 sends an intruder detection signal indicating that an intruder has been detected. To the server 11 of the service center.

  When the server 11 receives the intruder detection information from the gateway 13, the server 11 connects a predetermined telephone 18 of a security company or a communication carrier (hereinafter referred to as "security company") and the telephone 17 in the house where the intruder is detected. Unit 111, notification unit 112 that notifies mobile phone 19 of a resident in the house, and management table 114.

  In the management table 114, for each house, a gateway ID for identifying the gateway 13, a telephone number of the telephone 17 in the house, and a telephone number or mail address of the mobile phone 19 owned by the resident are registered.

  The gateway 13 and the server 11 described above are, for example, general-purpose devices including a CPU, a memory, an external storage device such as an HDD, an input device, an output device, and a communication control device for connecting to a network. A typical computer system can be used. In this computer system, each function of the gateway 13 or the server 11 is realized when the CPU executes a program for the gateway 13 or the server 11 loaded on the memory.

  Next, the operation of the home security system will be described.

  FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the operation of the home security system.

  When the gateway 13 receives an abnormal signal from one of the sensors in the alert mode, the gateway 13 transmits an intruder detection signal indicating that an intruder has been detected to the server 11 of the service center via the network 12 (S11). . That is, the gateway 13 generates and transmits an intruder detection signal including the gateway ID stored in the gateway 13.

  The notification unit 112 of the server 11 specifies the telephone number or mail address of the mobile phone corresponding to the gateway ID of the intruder detection signal from the management table 114. Then, the notification unit 112 notifies the resident mobile phone 19 of the house where the intruder has been detected that the intruder has been detected using the identified mobile phone number or mail address (S12).

  For example, when the telephone number is registered in the management table 114, the notification unit 112 may call the mobile phone 19 and play a voice message indicating that an intruder has been detected. In addition, when the mail address is registered in the management table 114, the notification unit 112 may transmit a mail indicating that an intruder has been detected using the mail address as a destination. It is assumed that a voice message or mail indicating that an intruder has been detected is registered in advance in the memory of the server 11 or an external storage device.

  Thereby, the resident of the house where the intruder has been detected can recognize that the intruder has been detected at home and that there is a danger of matching with the intruder when returning home at the present time.

  And the connection part 111 of the server 11 specifies the telephone number of the telephone 17 installed in the house corresponding to the gateway ID of the intruder detection signal from the management table 114. Then, the connecting unit 111 calls the telephone 17 having the specified telephone number and the telephone 18 such as a security company (S13). It is assumed that the telephone number of the telephone 18 such as a security company is registered in advance in the memory of the server 11 or an external storage device.

  Further, the connection unit 111 issues an instruction to ring the ringtone of the telephone set 17 with the specified telephone number with a predetermined ringtone (for example, notification of the caller's telephone number) and makes a call. Here, it is assumed that the telephone 17 in the house can change the ringtone according to the number of the caller. In the home phone 17 of the present embodiment, it is set in advance so that a ringing tone having a high threatening effect (for example, a buzzer sound of the maximum volume) is sounded when the telephone number of the phone 18 of a security company or the like is transmitted. I shall keep it.

  Then, the line between the telephone 17 in the house where the intruder is detected and the telephone 18 such as a security company is connected via the network 12 (S14). Here, it is assumed that the telephone 17 in the house is a telephone that can automatically receive a call, and is in a state where a telephone call can be made when the telephone 18 of a security company or the like is off-hooked. That is, the home telephone 17 is in an automatic incoming call state and automatically answers (receives) an incoming call. After the telephone set 17 in the house and the telephone set 18 of the security company or the like are ready to talk, the security officer of the security company or the like warns the intruder via the telephone set 18 of the security company or the like. Threaten.

  For example, when the home telephone 17 is an answering machine, a facsimile telephone, etc., when a call is made in the answering machine mode (automatic incoming call state), the incoming call is automatically made after a predetermined number of ringing sounds, and an answering machine function Works. At this time, since the home telephone 17 operates in the speaker mode, the home telephone 17 outputs the security officer's voice to the home in the speakerphone mode.

  In the home security system of the present embodiment described above, when an intruder is detected, a home phone that has detected the intruder is connected to a predetermined phone such as a security company. Thereby, it is possible to intimidate an intruder with the voice of a security officer such as a security company. That is, since the security officer intimidates the intruder through the telephone, the intimidation effect can be further improved as compared with the case where the security buzzer is sounded or the intruder is intimidated with a pre-registered synthesized sound.

  Further, in the home security system of the present embodiment, a call is issued by instructing that a ringtone of a home telephone that detects an intruder be played with a predetermined ringtone. As a result, even when the normal ring tone of the home phone is a ring tone with a low threatening effect, the ring tone when the server makes a call is a predetermined ring tone (for example, the maximum Therefore, the intimidating effect against intruders can be enhanced.

  In the home security system of the present embodiment, the mobile phone of the resident at the home is notified that an intruder has been detected at home. Thereby, the resident can return without knowing that there is an intruder at home, and can avoid dangers such as being in contact with the intruder.

  In this embodiment, an intruder is threatened using an existing telephone installed in the house, and a resident is notified using a mobile phone. That is, since an existing device can be used, a home security system can be constructed at a lower cost.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, Many deformation | transformation are possible within the range of the summary. For example, in order to prevent intruders from fleeing with neighboring residents when they escape, each home within a predetermined range from the home where the intruder was detected (for example, in the case of an apartment or apartment, It is good also as sending a warning alert to (home).
