  Here, the same group guest stays in the guest rooms R1 and R2, and the operation when the guest in the guest room R1 (for example, room 101) confirms the occupancy status of the guest room R2 (for example, room 102) is shown in FIG. The description will be given with reference.

  The guest in the guest room R1 operates the operation button of the Web page displayed on the monitor device 26 in his / her room to monitor the Web page that generates an access request to the guest room control unit 10 in another guest room. 26 is displayed. FIG. 5A is an example of a Web page 26a that generates an access request. The guest enters “102”, which is the requested guest room number, in the input field W1 of the Web page 26a. Thereafter, when the guest selects and operates the operation button B1, a signal requesting access to the room 102 (room R2) is output from the monitor device 26 to the Web server function unit 13 (S11 in FIG. 3). In the guest room side control unit 10, when the Web server function unit 13 receives the access request signal from the monitor device 26, the access request signal is sent to the control processing unit 11, and the access request generation unit 11a of the control processing unit 11 An access request to the guest room R2 is generated. At this time, the access request issued by the access request generation unit 11a is transmitted to the server 1 via the higher-level communication processing unit 14 (S12 in FIG. 3).

  When the access right control unit 1a of the server 1 receives an access request from the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room R1, the access right control unit 1a transmits an access request by designating the address of the guest room side control unit 10 installed in the request destination guest room R2. (S13 in FIG. 3). Upon receiving an access request from the guest room R1, the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room R2 displays a web page 26c informing that there is an access request from the guest room R1 (room 101) on the monitor device 26 in the own room (FIG. 3). S14), the notification sound is output from the monitor device 26. FIG. 5C is an example of the Web page 26c displayed at this time. On the Web page 26c, a message indicating that there is an access request from the guest room R1 (Room 101) and operation buttons B2 and B3 for selecting whether to accept or reject the access request are displayed.

  Here, when the guest in the guest room R2 selects and operates the “OK” operation button B2, a response signal for granting access authority is output from the monitor device 26 to the guest room-side control unit 10 in the guest room R2 (S15 in FIG. 3). . When the response signal for granting access authority is input from the monitor device 26, the guest room control unit 10 of the guest room R2 outputs a response signal for granting access authority to the server 1 (S16 in FIG. 3). At this time, the access right control unit 1a of the server 1 outputs a response signal to the effect that the access right is granted to the guest room side control unit 10 of the requesting guest room R1, and the access right to the guest room R2 from the guest room R1. Is stored in a storage unit (not shown). When the guest room control unit 10 of the guest room R1 receives the response signal that acknowledges the access authority transmitted from the server 1, the monitor device 26 displays the image data of the Web page indicating that the access request to the guest room R2 is permitted. And displayed on the monitor device 26. FIG. 5B is an example of the Web page 26b indicating that the access request is permitted. On this Web page 26b, a message indicating that an access request to the guest room R2 (Room 102) has been accepted and an operation button B4 indicating that the content of the message has been confirmed are displayed. Here, when the guest in the guest room R1 views the Web page 26b displayed on the monitor device 26 and selects the operation button B4, the monitor device 26 is switched to a screen for confirming the occupancy state in the guest room R2.

  When the access right from the guest room R1 to the guest room R2 is permitted as described above, the device information acquisition unit 11b of the guest room control unit 10 in the guest room R1 passes the server 1 to the guest room control unit 10 of the guest room R2. to access. And the apparatus information acquisition part 11b of the guest room side control part 10 in guest room R1 transmits the operation state of the installation apparatus installed in guest room R2 from the guest room side control part 10 in guest room R2.

  At this time, the occupancy state determination unit 11c of the control processing unit 11 determines the occupancy state of the guest in the guest room R2 based on the operation state of the equipment device acquired by the device information acquisition unit 11b. In this embodiment, there are lighting fixtures 21 and 22, an air conditioner 23, a human sensor 24, and a room key reading unit 25 as equipment devices. If insertion of a room key is detected by the room key reading unit 25, the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that a guest is present in the guest room R2. If the insertion of the room key is not detected by the room key reading unit 25, the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that no guest is present (is absent) in the guest room R2.

  When the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the occupant is in the room based on the detection state of the room key, the guest in the guest room R2 is waking up based on the operation state of the lighting fixtures 21 and 22 and the air conditioner 23. You can also determine whether you are sleeping. The luminaires 21 and 22 and the air conditioner 23 are electric devices that are switched on / off by a guest, and the luminaires 21 and 22 are considered to be turned off (turned off) while sleeping. Therefore, if the lighting fixture 21 or 22 is turned on (lighted) for a certain time and then turned off (lights off), the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the guest has gone to bed. Moreover, when the lighting fixture 21 or 22 is turned on after being turned off for a certain time, the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the guest has woken up.

  In addition, when the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the occupant is in the room based on the detection state of the room key, the occupancy state determination unit 11c can further narrow down the places where the guests are present based on the detection result of the human sensor 24. That is, if it is determined that the person is present in the room and the human sensor 24 detects a person, the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the guest is in the room space. On the other hand, if it is determined that the person is present in the room and the human sensor 24 does not detect a person, the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the guest is in a part other than the room space (for example, a bathroom).

  When the occupancy state is determined by the occupancy state determination unit 11c as described above, the control processing unit 11 outputs the determination result of the occupancy state to the Web server function unit 13. When the determination result of the occupancy state is input from the control processing unit 11, the Web server function unit 13 displays the determination result of the occupancy state on the monitor device 26. Based on the display, it is possible to grasp the occupancy state of the guest who uses the guest room R2. Therefore, it is not necessary for the guest in the guest room R1 to go to the guest room R2 to check the occupancy status or to call the guest in the guest room R2, and to check the occupancy status in the guest room R2. You can easily check the occupancy status of the customer.

  In the above-described embodiment, when a guest using one of the guest rooms outputs a request for access to another guest room using the guest room-side control unit 10 in the guest room, the guest room of the other guest room is transmitted via the server 1. An access request is transmitted to the side control unit 10. A guest who uses another guest room sets the access authority by performing an operation of accepting or rejecting the access request using the guest room side control unit 10. Access authority may be set for the server 1 on the side. For example, when a group customer stays in multiple guest rooms, the manager of the accommodation facility (for example, the front desk staff) can access each other among the guest rooms where the members of the group customer stay at the request of the group customer Set the access authority as follows.

  Here, when the access authority from the guest room R1 to the guest room R2 is preset in the access right control unit 1a of the server 1, the operation when the guest in the guest room R1 issues an access request to the guest room R2 is shown in FIG. It demonstrates based on the flowchart of these.

  A guest in guest room R1 operates a Web page operation button displayed on monitor device 26 in the guest room to generate an access request to guest room-side control unit 10 in another guest room (FIG. 5). (See (a)) is displayed on the monitor device 26. When the guest inputs “102”, which is the requested guest room number, in the input field W1 of the Web page 26a and then selects and operates the operation button B1, a signal requesting access to the 102th room (the guest room R2) is displayed. The data is output from the monitor device 26 to the Web server function unit 13. In the guest room side control unit 10, when the Web server function unit 13 receives the access request signal from the monitor device 26, the access request signal is sent to the control processing unit 11, and the access request generation unit 11a of the control processing unit 11 An access request to the guest room R2 is generated. At this time, the access request issued by the access request generator 11 a is transmitted to the server 1 via the higher-level communication processing unit 14.

  When the access right control unit 1a of the server 1 receives an access request from the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room R1 (step S21), it determines whether or not the request from the guest room side control unit 10 is a request for checking the occupancy status. Judgment is made (step S22). Here, if the request from the guest room side control unit 10 is not a request for checking the occupancy status, the server 1 proceeds to another process (step S23). On the other hand, if the request from the guest room side control unit 10 is a request for confirming the occupancy status, the server 1 determines whether or not the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room R1 has the authority to access the guest room R2 (step S1). S24).

  If it is determined in step S24 that there is no access right, the access right control unit 1a returns a signal indicating that there is no access right to the guest room side control unit 10 of the requesting guest room R1. Upon receiving this signal, the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room R1 displays that the monitor device 26 in the guest room has no access authority (step S25), and notifies that the guest of the guest room R1 has no access authority. .

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S24 that the user has access authority, the access right control unit 1a outputs a occupancy status confirmation request signal to the guest room control unit 10 of the requesting guest room R2 (step S24). S26). When the server 1 outputs the confirmation request signal to the cabin side control unit 10 of the cabin R2, the server 1 waits for a response from the cabin side control unit 10 (step S27). Upon receiving the occupancy status confirmation request signal transmitted from the server 1, the cabin side control unit 10 of the cabin R2 confirms the operating state of the equipment in the own room and returns a signal indicating the operating state to the server 1. . When the signal indicating the operating state is returned from the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room R2, the server 1 transmits this signal to the guest room side control unit 10 of the requesting guest room R1. When the guest room control unit 10 of the guest room R1 receives the operation state of the equipment transmitted from the guest room control unit 10 of the guest room R2 via the server 1, the presence of the guest who uses the guest room R2 based on this signal. The room state is determined, and the determination result is displayed on the monitor device 26. As described above, even when the access authority is set in advance on the server 1 side, the access right control unit 1a determines whether or not the access authority exists, and only when the access authority is permitted, the guest room side of another guest room. The operation state of the equipment can be acquired by accessing the control unit 10. When the access request is permitted, the occupancy state in the other guest room is determined based on the operation state of the equipment in the other guest room, and the determination result is displayed on the monitor device. Therefore, it is possible to grasp the occupancy state in another guest room without going to another guest room or making a phone call.

  In the above embodiment, the operating state of the equipment is returned from the guest room control unit 10 in the requested guest room to the guest room control unit 10 in the requesting guest room via the server 1. become. Therefore, the operation state of the equipment in the requested guest room can be seen on the front side. Therefore, when it is not desired to inform the front side of the operating state of the equipment device, the information indicating the operating state of the equipment device without going through the server 1 from the requesting guest room side control unit 10 to the requesting guest room side control unit 10 Can be sent.

  In this case, the address of the guest room control unit 10 in another guest room is registered in advance in the guest room control unit 10 in each guest room. Each guest room control unit 10 in each guest room is provided with an access right control unit. And the access right control part provided in the guest room side control part 10 of each room responds to the access request from the guest room side control part 10 in another guest room, and the access right to the guest room side control part 10 in the own room. The presence or absence of is determined. Here, when accessing the guest room control unit 10 in another guest room from the guest room control unit 10 in any guest room, the access request is directly specified by specifying the address of the requesting guest room control unit 10. Send. At this time, the guest room control unit 10 in the requested guest room displays a Web page 26c as shown in FIG. 5C on the monitor device 26 and allows the guest to select whether or not to permit access. . When access is permitted by the guest, the access right control unit provided in the requesting guest room side control unit 10 permits access from the requesting guest room side control unit 10 and transmits the operation state of the equipment. To do. At this time, the requesting guest room-side control unit 10 can directly acquire the operating state of the equipment from the requesting guest room-side control unit 10 and determines the occupancy state based on the operating state of the equipment. . On the other hand, when the access is denied by the guest, the access right control unit provided in the requesting guest room side control unit 10 denies access from the requesting guest room side control unit 10 and changes the operating state of the equipment. Do not send. As described above, since the operation state of the equipment can be acquired between the guest room side control units 10 without going through the server 1, the operation state of the equipment in the requested guest room is the server 1 side (that is, the operator of the accommodation facility). The privacy of guests is protected.

  As described above, the inter-room control system of the present embodiment includes the equipment (for example, the lighting fixtures 21, 22, the air conditioner 23, the human sensor 24, the room key reading unit 25), the guest room-side control unit 10, Access right control unit 1a is provided.

Get the operating status of a piece of equipment. The occupancy state determination unit 11c determines the occupancy state in another guest room based on the operation state of the equipment in the other guest room acquired by the device information acquisition unit 11b, and displays the display unit (monitor The determination result is displayed on the device 26).

  Accordingly, when a guest staying in a certain guest room wants to know the occupancy state of the guest staying in another guest room, an access request is generated from the guest room control unit 10 in the own room. When the access authority is recognized from the guest room control unit 10 in another guest room, the guest room control unit 10 in the own room accesses the guest room control unit 10 in another guest room and acquires the operating state of the equipment. . Then, the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines the occupancy state in another guest room based on the acquired operation state of the equipment and displays the determination result on the display unit (monitor device 26) in the own room. Therefore, it is possible to grasp the occupancy state in other guest rooms while staying in the guest room, and the convenience of the guest is improved. Further, the guest room control unit 10 that has requested access to another guest room cannot access the guest room control unit 10 of the other guest room unless the access right control unit 1a grants the access right. Restrictions can be imposed so that the occupancy status can only be determined from the designated guest rooms.

  Further, in the inter-room control system of the present embodiment, as a facility device, a room key detection device (room key reading unit) that enables operation of other facility devices provided in the guest room when the insertion of a room key is detected as a facility device. 25). The device information acquisition unit 11b acquires the detection state of the room key reading unit 25 in another guest room, and the occupancy state determination unit 11c detects that the room key is detected by the room key reading unit 25 in another guest room. For example, it is determined that the guest is in another room. When the guest goes out, the room key is removed from the room key reading unit 27. Therefore, based on the detection state of the room key reading unit 27, it is ensured that the guest is in the room. Can be determined.

  Further, in the inter-room control system of the present embodiment, there are electrical devices (for example, the lighting fixtures 21 and 22 and the air conditioner 23) that are switched on / off by the guest as equipment. In addition to the detection state of the room key detection device (room key reading unit 25) in the other guest room, the device information acquisition unit 11b acquires the on / off state of the electric device in the other guest room. When the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the occupancy is based on the detection state of the room key reading unit 25, the occupant is waking up based on the on / off state of electrical devices in other guest rooms. Or whether he is sleeping. Here, when the guest in the room is sleeping, it is considered that the operation of switching on / off the electric device is not performed, so the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines the on / off state of the electric device. Based on the above, it can be determined whether the guest is getting up or sleeping, and more detailed occupancy determination can be performed. For example, if a family member or group guest staying in multiple rooms wants to act together after waking up, this system allows guests in other rooms to wake up without having to go to other rooms or make phone calls. Since it is possible to grasp whether or not it is, convenience is improved.

  Moreover, in the inter-room control system of this embodiment, the human sensor 24 which detects the presence or absence of the person in the room part of a guest room is provided as equipment. The device information acquisition unit 11b acquires the detection state of the human sensor 24 in another guest room in addition to the detection state of the room key detection device (room key reading unit 25) in the other guest room. When the occupancy state determination unit 11c determines that the user is in the room based on the detection state of the room key reading unit 25, the occupancy state determination unit 11c Determine whether the guest is in the room or not. Therefore, the occupancy state determination unit 11c not only determines whether the guest is in the room or not based on the detection state of the human sensor 24, but also whether the guest is in the room part during the occupancy. Can be determined.

  In the inter-guest room control system of the present embodiment, it is also preferable that an access right control unit is provided in the guest room side control unit 10 provided in each guest room. In this case, the access right control unit provided in the guest room side control unit 10 determines whether or not there is an access right to the guest room side control unit in the own room in response to an access request from the guest room side control unit 10 in another guest room. judge.

  Thereby, since the operation state of the equipment can be acquired between the guest room side control units 10 without going through the server 1, the operation state of the equipment in the requested guest room is the server 1 side (that is, the accommodation facility operator side). ) Can protect the privacy of guests.

  In addition, the access right control unit 1a only applies the first time when an access request is made from one guest room to another during a guest stay period (for example, from the check-in time to the check-out time on the next day). An inquiry may be made as to whether or not access is permitted. If there are multiple access requests from the same guest room Rx to the same guest room Ry (Rx ≠ Ry) during the stay period, the access right control unit 1a receives the request from the requesting guest room side control unit 10 at the first access. Whether to permit access may be determined based on the response result. Thus, during the period in which the same guest is staying, the guest room control unit 10 in the same guest room accesses the guest room control unit 10 in the guest room of the same request destination. It is possible to save the trouble of responding whether the customer grants access or not.

  Further, whether or not to grant access authority to other guest rooms for each of the guest room side control units 10 in the guest rooms R1, R2,..., Rn is set in advance in the access right control part 1a of the server 1. Good. For example, when a group customer is divided into a plurality of guest rooms and there is a request from a member of the group customer to check the state of the guest room where another member is staying, the manager of the accommodation facility (for example, front desk staff) 1 is used to set the access authority. That is, the manager of the accommodation facility operates the server 1 to designate the room where the member of the group customer stays, and the room side of the room where the other member of the group customer stays in the room side control unit 10 in this room. A right source for accessing the control unit 10 is given. In this case, the guest room control unit 10 of all guest rooms in which the group customer stays is given access rights to the guest room control unit 10 in the other guest room for the group guest, and the situation of the other rooms is mutually shared. May be confirmed. In the case of group guests such as school excursions, only the guest room side control unit 10 in some of the guest rooms (for example, guest rooms where the lead person stays) out of the plurality of guest rooms for group guests, An access right to the control unit 10 may be granted so that only the lead person can check the status of other rooms.

  Moreover, in the inter-room control system of this embodiment, the apparatus control part 11d is provided in the guest room side control part 10 provided in each of guest room R1, R2 ... Rn. When the access right control unit 1a recognizes the access right to the guest room side control unit 10 in another guest room, the device control unit 11d determines whether the guest inputs other control information using the monitor device 26, for example. A control command for controlling the operation of the equipment in the guest room is created and transmitted from the host communication processing unit 14 to the server 1. When the server 1 receives a control command from the guest room-side control unit 10 that has requested access, the server 1 transmits this control command to the guest room-side control unit 10 that is the access destination. Upon receiving the control command via the server 1, the guest room control unit 10 as the access destination outputs the control command from the device input / output processing unit 12 to the corresponding facility device, and performs a desired operation on the desired facility device. Can be made. Thereby, it is possible to control the operation of the equipment in other guest rooms while in the own room. For example, when a group guest such as a school excursion stays in a plurality of guest rooms, the lead may operate the guest room side control unit 10 of the guest room to turn off the lighting devices 21 and 22 in the guest room where the student stays. Yes, you can turn off the lights and encourage students to go to bed. In addition, in a state where guests who are divided into a plurality of guest rooms are gathered in one of the guest rooms, before returning to each of the guest rooms, the guest room's guest room control unit 10 is used to return to the guest room. It is also possible to access the side control unit 10 and operate the air conditioner in the room.

  As described above, in the inter-room control system of the present embodiment, each of the guest room side control units 10 is provided with the device control unit 11d. When the access right control unit 1a grants access authority to the guest room side control unit 10 in another guest room, the device control unit 11d accesses the guest room side control unit 10 in the other guest room and is in the other guest room. Control the operation of equipment. Thereby, the guest can operate the equipment in another guest room, while staying in the guest room.
