Description

  The present invention relates to an entrance / exit opening / closing control system, for example, an entrance / exit electric lock provided at a front door of a house, an automatic door opening / closing provided at an entrance / exit of a common part, a drive device for locking a delivery box, etc. The present invention relates to an opening / closing body control system for entry / exit controlled from outside.

  In Patent Document 1, in order to confirm a visitor between an internal terminal provided in a room (an interphone installed in each room) and a doorphone provided on a front door or a wall surface in the vicinity thereof, A technique is described in which a video device is installed at an appropriate place and the visitor is specified by image information acquired by the video device. Therefore, it is possible to ensure “safety” when opening the entrance door.

  However, although patent document 1 can confirm a visitor with the internal terminal in a room, for example, the portable terminal which can be carried arbitrarily and the wide area communication network were used, and it approached the entrance of the own house. There is a problem that visitors, children, relatives, managers, etc. cannot be easily confirmed. In addition, while considering safety, it is possible to easily identify the visitor, child, relative, administrator, etc. using a portable terminal and a wide-area communication network, and the portable terminal is “ It is very convenient if it can serve as an “authentication terminal” so that it can be “excluded”.

  By the way, in Patent Document 2, when a portable terminal that replaces a key of a mobile phone or other portable terminal in which a key number, a user password is recorded in a storage unit is lost, the door lock device is initially set. The new user password is stored in the storage unit of the portable terminal, and the rewritten new user password is determined by the user authentication information rewrite determining means provided in the door lock device. (For example, paragraph 0010, paragraph 0011). Although this patent document 2 can deal with the case where the portable terminal that replaces the key is lost, when the registration information of the portable terminal is changed, a new user is stored in the storage unit of the door lock device constituting the door lock system. There is a problem that it is necessary to set a personal identification number. In addition, when the portable terminal that replaces the key is not a cellular phone but is a small key substitute terminal (IC tag) used in a keyless entry system, for example, there are many opportunities to be lost. There is.

That particular person's information If the authentication unit determines that the user's information is authorized personal identification information, the IC tag use permission information is sent to the electric lock control device via the communication unit and the communication network. The electric lock control device transmits activation information for activating the unlock key of the IC tag that is normally invalid or sleeping on the condition that the use permission information is received. .

  In the above-described entrance / exit opening / closing body control system, when the authentication information of the specific person is an unlocking key for the opening / closing body possessed by the specific person, the opening / closing body control device includes: When the unlocking key is activated, the locking and unlocking of the electric lock provided on the opening / closing body is controlled. Further, when the authentication information of the specific person is the unlocking key for the opening / closing body possessed by the specific person, the opening / closing body control device, when the unlocking key is activated, Controlling the opening and closing of the opening and closing body. Further, the external authentication terminal includes artificial intelligence means, which includes at least IC tag ID information, a specific person's face, a specific person's appearance and clothes, a specific person's fingerprint, and a specific person's voiceprint. Authenticate by treating any one of the passwords and passwords known only by the voice of a specific person, the IC tag user and the owner of the external authentication terminal as "predetermined authentication information (identification information)" It is characterized by that. Further, the opening / closing body control device operates the opening / closing body so that the activated unlocking key is brought into an original normal state after a predetermined time has elapsed after receiving the use permission information and the unlocking key is activated. To control.

  In addition, secret words and passwords correspond to secret information (for example, a favorite person's favorite animal, date of birth, grandmother's name, etc.). In addition, the electric lock control device includes a photographing device (a camera that takes a still image, a video camera that takes a dynamic image, etc.) that acquires the face and posture information of a specific person. In addition, when the biometric information is included in the “personal identification information” and the imaging device for acquiring the ecological information is a video camera, a predetermined number of frames are extracted from the video signal, for example, an arbitrary software Is compressed into a still image file and transmitted to the mail address of the authentication terminal recorded in the storage unit of the electric lock control device.

  Therefore, although not particularly illustrated, the electric lock control device includes an image generation unit that generates an image file from the video acquired from the imaging device, and an image transmission unit that transmits a still image or a moving image generated by the image generation unit to the authentication terminal.

  On the other hand, in the embodiment, the identity verification information includes at least IC tag ID information, a specific person's face, a specific person's appearance and clothes (including a hat), a specific person's fingerprint, a specific person's voiceprint, a specific Although the user's voice, IC tag user, and password or password known only by the owner of the external authentication terminal may be used, the external authentication terminal needs to confirm the identity of the person. Therefore, in the case of biological information such as fingerprints and voiceprints that are difficult to judge visually, authentication information stored in the storage unit of the authentication terminal in advance (a person authorized by the authentication terminal in advance) using so-called artificial intelligence means It is desirable to identify (authenticate)

  Opening / closing doors for entrance / exit are provided at the entrance doors of dwelling units (such as apartment houses, detached houses, office buildings, etc.), building gates (preferably gates of apartment houses or detached houses), or entrances to common areas. Automatic doors, and at least one of the doors of a delivery box installed in or near the building, and the electric lock control device is configured to open and close the opening / closing of the authentication information of the specific person. In the case of the unlocking key for the body, when the unlocking key of the activated IC tag is acquired, for example, a lock mechanism (for example, an electric door) provided on the entrance door, the gate door, or the door of the delivery box, respectively. It is characterized by controlling one or a plurality of lock unlocking / automatic door driving devices.

  The electric lock control device controls the electric lock to return to the locked state when a predetermined time elapses after the electric lock is unlocked. Further, the electric lock control device controls the unlock key of the activated IC tag to be in the original normal state when a predetermined time has elapsed after the electric lock is unlocked.

  For example, an unlocking method of an electric lock, which is an example of an entrance / exit opening / closing control system, includes a non-contact type reader for reading ID information of an IC tag, an electric lock control device connected to the non-contact type reader, and the electric lock An unlocking / unlocking electric lock provided with an external authentication terminal communication unit connected to the control device and an opening / closing body for entering / leaving, and having an electric lock controlled by the electric lock control device. In this locking method, when the ID information of the IC tag possessed by a specific person approaching the opening / closing body is input to the input unit, the electric lock control device is connected to the external authentication terminal communication unit and the wide-area communication network. Via the step of notifying the external authentication terminal that a specific person has approached the opening / closing opening / closing body (approach information notification), on the other hand, the authentication terminal is information of the specific person received from the electric lock control device In the authentication unit, and the authentication unit If it is determined that the information is the identification information that can be permitted, the IC tag use permission information is transmitted to the electric lock control device, and thereafter, the electric lock control device is normally disabled or asleep. Transmitting activation information for activating the unlock key of the IC tag.

Here, the “input unit” refers to an unlocking key for an opening / closing body possessed by a specific person, an ID code obtained from a storage medium called an IC tag (interrogator), or a numeric keypad corresponding to the ID code. An input unit that acquires the encryption code of the expression, a photographing device that acquires the posture information by a camera, and the like.
The “IC tag” is an example of a non-contact type information medium having an ID. The shape is not particularly limited as long as the non-contact type reader can read the ID. "Kazuru" type is also included. Furthermore, the “card-shaped insertion information medium” is also included in the non-contact information medium unless departing from the subject of the invention. Preferably, the IC tag and the non-contact reader are transmitted by radio waves (wireless) so that the approach information notification can be notified to the external authentication terminal promptly or early (approach information notification).

  Further, for example, the “IC tag” in the embodiment has two meanings. One is an ID transmission function for transmitting the ID stored in the storage unit to the non-contact type reader, and the other is an unlock key stored in the storage unit and activated. This is an unlock key transmission function for transmitting to a non-contact type reader.

  In the present invention, a portable or mobile external terminal that can be connected to a communication network at an arbitrary place is a specific requirement of the invention, and this external terminal makes a final judgment and permits the information of the IC tag user. It corresponds to an “authentication terminal” or a “monitoring terminal” for confirming the identity of whether or not to perform the identification. Therefore, the ID and the unlock key are preferably separate information (however, as an example of the embodiment, ID Corresponds to the specific information known only by the mobile external terminal, and if the identity can be confirmed, it shall be based on the biological information and password).

  Next, an exit opening / closing body control system, for example, an entrance / exit electric lock system, consists of “IC tag”, “communication network” and “external terminal (authentication terminal) in a broad sense, but in a narrow sense, ID information of an IC tag. A non-contact type reader for reading a signal, an electric lock control device connected to the non-contact type reader, an external authentication terminal communication unit connected to the electric lock control device, and an entrance / exit opening / closing body, and the electric lock control The device consists of an electric lock that is controlled to be locked and unlocked.

  Therefore, “IC tag”, “communication network”, and “external terminal (authentication terminal)” are not positive specific requirements for the electric lock control device. However, the main problem of the present invention is to eliminate IC tag users who are not permitted by the “external terminal (external authentication terminal)”, that is, to improve the security. At the same time or at the same time as the approach information notification from the control device, confirm the information of the specific person possessing the IC tag received from the electric lock control device with the authentication unit, and the authentication unit permits the user information Since it is determined that the personal identification information can be confirmed and the use permission information of the IC tag is transmitted to the electric lock control device via the communication unit and the communication network. Closely related to the electric lock system.

  Next, the communication network includes not only the Internet including a large number of base stations, but also LAN-type connections built only within the building. A wide-area communication network is interposed between an entry / exit electric lock system in a narrow sense and an external terminal (authentication terminal), and exchanges information between the two. For example, notification of approach information (for example, that a child, grandma, grandpa, visiting caregiver, administrator, etc. is approaching) from the entrance / exit electric lock system to the external terminal (external authentication terminal), or depending on the embodiment Notifies ecological information (preferably face, figure, voice, etc.) at the same time as approach information. On the other hand, the biometric information request of the IC tag user is notified from the external terminal (external authentication terminal) to the entry / exit electric lock system.

  Next, an external terminal (external authentication terminal) has necessary components such as a communication unit, a control unit including a storage unit, a display unit, and the like, access information to the opening / closing body at any place from the communication network, use of an IC tag The external terminal includes so-called smart phones, tablet terminals, notebook personal computers, and the like because the biometric information request of the user, the authentication of the IC tag user, and the IC tag use permission information are transmitted after the authentication.

(A) In the invention described in claim 1, the “external terminal (external authentication terminal)” excludes, for example, IC tag users who are not permitted to use (ie, eliminates), that is, improves security. Can be planned. Further, when the “external terminal” approaches the opening / closing body from an arbitrary location, and the authentication information of the specific person is the unlocking key for the opening / closing body possessed by the specific person, for example, Sending the IC tag use permission information for activating the unlocking key stored in the IC tag to the opening / closing body control device (for example, the electric lock control device) to the person holding the IC tag. it can. Furthermore, depending on the embodiment, in the case of the non-contact method, the approach information notification can be notified promptly or early to the authentication terminal as an external terminal.
(B) In the invention according to claim 2, since the opening / closing body control device controls the operation of the opening / closing body so as to be in the original normal state when a predetermined time has elapsed after receiving the use permission information, It cannot be used as an unlock key, and there is no need to worry if the IC tag is dropped.

  The input unit 2 of the present invention is preferably a “reading device”. Accordingly, the identification information is preferably a non-contact type information storage medium, but is not limited to this, and includes both the contact method and the non-contact method described in the above-mentioned patent documents. Regarding the identification information of the user, the input unit 2 (for example, the reading unit) on the electric lock control device 3 side is preferably a card reader or an ITV monitoring camera as in the embodiment described later. Either a recognition terminal device or a retina recognition device may be used. Moreover, you may provide these several input devices.

  A preferred embodiment will now be described with reference to FIGS. When understanding this embodiment, for example, a scene where a child is approaching the entrance door of a detached house or a condominium while the mother is not in the house but is going out with a mobile terminal. It should be assumed.

  In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a non-contact reader 2 that reads ID information of an IC tag 1 possessed by a specific person (for example, a child) A, an electric lock control device 3 that is connected to the non-contact reader, An external terminal (authentication terminal) 6 connected to the electric lock control device via an external authentication terminal communication unit 4 and a wide-area communication network 5; an exit opening / closing body 7 close to the child; and The electric lock 8 that is controlled by the electric lock control device 3 is controlled mainly. Further, the non-contact type reader or the electric lock control device 3 is directly or indirectly photographed (camera). 9 is connected.

  Of course, the electric lock control device 3 constituting the electric lock system X in a narrow sense includes a storage unit 10 for storing necessary information such as registration information a, a program b for activating an unlock key, and the electric lock is unlocked. It has a time measuring function (timer) 11 that counts the starting time as a starting point. The electric lock system X in a narrow sense is connected to an external terminal (authentication terminal) 6 connected via a wide-area communication network 5, and the external terminal (authentication terminal) 6 includes a communication unit 21, a control unit 22, A storage unit 23, an authentication unit 24, and a display unit (liquid crystal screen) 25 that is used for both display and operation.

  On the other hand, the electric lock system Y for entry / exit in a broad sense includes (1) an IC tag 1 possessed by a specific person A, (2) a non-contact type reader 2, and (3) a separate body from the non-contact type reader 2. Or an electric lock control device 3 connected integrally, (4) an external authentication terminal communication unit 4 connected to the electric lock control device 3, and (5) an opening / closing body controlled directly by the electric lock control device. 7 includes an electric lock 8 for applying and unlocking 7, (6) a wide-area communication network 5 having a large number of base stations, and (7) an authentication terminal 6 as an external terminal.

  In the embodiment, the external terminal 6 (hereinafter referred to as an external “authentication terminal”) plays an important monitoring or control function role. This external authentication terminal 6 plays an important role as a monitoring terminal, so to speak, when the viewpoint is placed on the electric lock control device 3 from the viewpoint of direct infringement of patent rights, in other words, the processing of the external authentication terminal 6 When the configuration is read as that of the electric lock control device, the electric lock control device 3 of the embodiment authenticates the ID of the IC tag 1. If the authentication of the IC tag matches the registration information a, the electric lock control device 3 communicates with the external authentication terminal 6. The fact that the specific person A has approached the entrance / exit opening / closing body 7 is notified via the communication network 5 (notification information notification).

  Furthermore, the electric lock control device 3 transmits information (for example, biological information, a password, etc.) for specifying the specific person A based on a request from the external authentication terminal 6 (a time different from the approach information notification), for example. The information for identifying the specific person A is automatically notified simultaneously with the approach information notification without being based on a request from the external authentication terminal 6. If the authentication information of a specific person is the unlocking key for the opening / closing body possessed by the specific person, on the condition that the use permission information is acquired, the specific information is acquired. The activation information for activating the unlocking key of the IC tag 1 possessed by the person A is sent to the IC tag 1, and the entrance door of the building that acquires the unlocking key of the activated IC tag 1 7 (in some embodiments, the gate In addition, the electric lock 8 provided in (1) is controlled to be unlocked, and when the electric lock 8 has been unlocked by using the time measuring function 11, the electric lock 8 is returned to the locked state. Since it has various functions such as controlling the unlocking key of the activated IC tag 1 to be in a normal state when a predetermined time has elapsed after the electric lock 8 is unlocked, It can be said that the third party who carries out the electric lock system X in a narrow sense having various functions without permission is not indirect infringement but falls under direct infringement of the present invention. Therefore, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the description of the first embodiment, details of known matters (for example, specific configurations of the IC tag 1 and the electric lock 8) are omitted.

  (1) IC tag 1... The IC tag can be carried by any holder, and can be carried in a bag or bag or carried around when going out. A typical example is a so-called “non-touch key (registered trademark)” manufactured and sold by the applicant. The non-touch key 1 has an unlock button, a lock button, and the like. For example, when an unlock signal is transmitted to the electric lock system X provided with the unlock button on the opening / closing body 7, the opening / closing body 7 can be opened. Further, the IC tag can perform non-contact communication with a non-contact type reader installed indoors and outdoors by electromagnetic waves or radio waves, and can communicate within a predetermined communication range. The IC tag is activated in response to a response request signal transmitted from the non-contact type reader and transmits a signal including identification information to the non-contact type reader. These are well known techniques. Therefore, details are omitted. However, in the case of a resident of a dwelling unit (for example, a child and a mother), when the child A goes out, the IC tag (non-touch key) 1 is possessed. ID information communicable with the contact reader 2 is stored in the storage unit. As described above, when receiving the unique ID information and the activation information from the electric lock control device 3, the IC tag 1 of the embodiment wakes up from the invalid state to the active state or from the sleeping state. An unlock key that enters a state (referred to herein as “activation”) is also stored in the storage unit.

Therefore, the IC tag is usually in a normal state, and has unique ID information that can respond to the electric lock control device (including the non-contact type reader) 3 and when the child is freely carried to school or the like. It holds two pieces of information about unlock keys in an invalid state that cannot be used as unlock keys at all. Therefore, as seen from the mother B, even if the child A drops the IC tag (non-touch key) 1 somewhere, there is no worry that the opening / closing body 7 of the dwelling unit can be opened without permission.
Further, in the embodiment, even if the child Z who is close to the child A tries to open the opening / closing body 7 of his / her dwelling unit and stands in front of the opening / closing body 7 (for example, in front of the entrance door), the mother B A signal for permitting use of the IC tag 1 (a permission signal indicating that an activation signal may be transmitted to the IC tag) is given from the external authentication terminal 6 possessed to the electric lock control device 3 via the communication network 5. As long as there is not, there is no worry that the opening / closing body 7 of the dwelling unit can be opened without permission. Therefore, in this sense, the external authentication terminal 6 possessed by the mother B monitors or controls the electric lock control device 3 of the electric lock system X for entry / exit in a narrow sense.

  In the embodiment, the IC tag 1 possessed by the child A and the portable terminal 6 possessed by the mother B are taken as an example for easy understanding. However, for example, the manager of the dwelling unit having the trust relationship and the mother have a trust relationship. Based on the use permission information from the authentication terminal 6 capable of “identity confirmation (authentication unit) 24” such as a relative and mother, an employee who has a trust relationship with the superior of the workplace, activation information is further received from the electric lock control device 3 A person who possesses an IC tag 1 that can be acquired is included in the concept of “specific person” here.

  (2) The electric lock system X in a narrow sense As described above, the electric lock system X in the narrow sense includes a non-contact type reader 2, an electric lock control device 3 connected to the non-contact type reader 2, and this electric lock control device. An electric lock 8 provided in the external authentication terminal communication unit 4 and the opening / closing body 7 to be connected, and controlled to be unlocked / unlocked by the electric lock control device 3; In addition to the storage unit 10 and the timer 11, a photographing device 9 is connected to acquire a specific person's face and posture information. In addition, although not shown in FIG. 2, a numeric keypad for manually inputting a password, a microphone for inputting a secret word, a fingerprint detection device, and the like are connected. The photographing device 9 may be connected to the non-contact type reader 2 so as to be interlocked with the non-contact type reader 2. As described above, when the photographing apparatus 9 that acquires the face and appearance information (including a uniform and a hat) of a specific person is a constituent requirement, the delivery person of the delivery company is based on the concept of “specific person” described above. Is included.

  (3) Non-contact type reader 2 ... The non-contact type reader 2 acquires the ID information held by the IC tag 1 when the IC tag 1 enters an area where radio waves reach, as is well known, and controls the electric lock. Output to the device 3. One or a plurality of non-contact type readers 2 are arranged at appropriate locations. Generally, in the case of a detached house or an apartment house, it is arranged at the entrance door 7 or in the vicinity thereof. Depending on the embodiment, there are cases where a plurality of gates are disposed on a common gate of an apartment house, a wall of a dedicated gate, a floor, etc. In the embodiment, the unlock key held by the IC tag 1 is acquired in a non-contact state. As described above, since the IC tag 1 transmits the ID transmission function and the activated unlocking key information to the non-contact type reader 2, the non-contact type reader 2 receives both information corresponding to these functions. It has the function to do. In addition, opening and closing of the common gate of the housing complex and the door of the delivery box will be described with reference to FIGS.

(4) Electric lock 8
The electric lock 8 is generally attached to a free end portion of an entrance door as an example of the opening / closing body 7 and receives a door frame by a driving source such as a driving motor (not shown), a power transmission mechanism, a clutch mechanism, and a driving force of the driving source. Equipped with a dead bolt that moves forward and backward with respect to the metal fittings, a cylinder device provided on the outer wall surface side of the entrance door, a thumb turn device provided on the inner wall surface side of the entrance door, etc., which can be locked and unlocked both mechanically and electrically It is.

(5) Electric lock control device 3, storage unit 10, timekeeping function (timer) 11
The electric lock control device 3 controls the electric lock system X in a narrow sense in an integrated manner, but is controlled by the authentication terminal 6 in the embodiment as described above. The electric lock control device 3 is connected to the electric lock 8 in a wired or wireless manner, and an authentication program including registration information a stored in the storage unit 10 and an activity for activating the unlock key of the IC tag 1 The program b is stored.
Therefore, registration information a necessary for the processing of the present embodiment, such as identification information of the dwelling unit, ID information of the IC tag 1, and mail address of the authentication terminal 6, is recorded in the storage unit 10 in advance. In addition, since the electric lock control device 3 has an authentication function and a timekeeping function (timer), if the ID information matches the registered information, it automatically indicates that a specific person has approached the entrance of the dwelling unit. It outputs to the communication part 4 for authentication terminals.

  Here, with reference to FIG. 3, for example, “an unlocking method of an electric lock” will be described. In the schematic flowchart of FIG. 3, two embodiments (Example 1 and Example 2) are shown with respect to an aspect in which the authentication terminal 6 acquires the biological information and the like from the electric lock control device 3.

  First, step S <b> 1 is a stage where the IC tag 1 approaches the opening / closing body 7. At this time, for example, a child A who has permission to use approaches the entrance door 7 of his house. In step S <b> 2, information is exchanged between the IC tag 1 and the non-contact type reader 2, and the electric lock control device 3 acquires ID information via the non-contact type reader 2.

  Step S3 is a stage for authenticating the ID information of the IC tag. In this step S3, it is determined whether or not the ID information of the IC tag matches the registered information. Therefore, when the electric lock control device authenticates the IC tag, that is, if the authentication of the IC tag matches the registration information a, a specific person A enters the authentication terminal 6 via the communication network 5 and opens / closes for entering / exiting. Notification of approaching the body 7 is made (approach information notification: step S4).

  In relation to the approach information notification S4, the authentication terminal 6 has two embodiments (Example 1 and Example 2) for acquiring the biological information of the child A from the electric lock control device 3 and the like. First, in Example 1 shown on the right side of the drawing, after the authentication terminal 6 obtains the approach information notification S4 from the electric lock control device, for example, the authentication terminal 6 knows that “someone is in front of the entrance door” on the display unit 25 or the like. In order to know whether or not that person is “your child A” (whether or not he / she has authority to use), the entrance door from the authentication terminal 6 to the electric lock control device 3 from the viewpoint of ensuring safety. The electronic lock control device 3 requests the image information of the photographing device 9, the numeric keypad information input with the password, the biological information such as a secret word for the microphone, etc. after the request is made. It is a step to acquire. The step of Example 1 is a configuration in which ecological information and the like are obtained at a time different from the approach information.

  Next, in Example 2 shown on the left side of the drawing, for example, the photographing device 9 is activated almost simultaneously with the non-contact type reader 2, so that the authentication terminal 6 receives ecological information etc. from the electric lock control device 3 almost simultaneously with the approach information notification S 4. It is a configuration. In other words, the electric lock control device 3 automatically sends information for specifying the specific person A to the authentication terminal 6 at the same time as the approach information notification without being based on the request from the authentication terminal 6. To notify.

  Next, step S5 is a stage in which identity verification is performed. This identity verification stage means whether or not authentication is established. In the embodiment, the information for specifying the specific person A is not only the biological information, but at least the ID information of the IC tag, the face of the specific person, the appearance of the specific person, the fingerprint of the specific person, the specific person One or more of authentication information such as passwords, passwords, etc. known only to the user's voiceprint, the voice of a specific person, the IC tag user and the owner of the external authentication terminal 6 are “identification information”. For example, the authentication means is executed not only by the mother B carrying the authentication terminal 6, but preferably by the authentication establishment by an intelligent robot having a learning function.

  Therefore, the mother B uses the authentication unit 24 of the authentication terminal 6 or the authentication terminal includes artificial intelligence means, and this artificial intelligence means includes at least the ID information of the IC tag, the face of the specific person, the face of the specific person. Any of the authentication information such as password, password, etc. known only by the appearance, the fingerprint of the specific person, the voice print of the specific person, the voice of the specific person, the IC tag user and the owner of the external authentication terminal Since one or more are handled and authenticated as “identification information”, this artificial intelligence means automatically confirms the identity based on the registered information on the biological information stored in the storage unit 23 (authentication is established). Later, the IC dogg usage permission information is transmitted to the electric lock control device 3.

  This artificial intelligence means is that a specific person's face, a specific person's appearance, a specific person's fingerprint, a specific person's voiceprint when the mother B transmits the use permission information using the authentication unit of the authentication terminal 6 Learning is performed by storing authentication information such as passwords and passwords that are known only to the voice of a specific person, the user of the IC tag, and the owner of the external authentication terminal 6 and stored in the storage means 23.

  Furthermore, this artificial intelligence means uses the input unit to identify a specific person's face, specific person's appearance, specific person's fingerprint, specific person's voiceprint, specific person's voice, IC tag user and external authentication. Every time authentication information such as secret words and passwords that only the owner of the terminal 6 knows is acquired, the authentication information is updated and stored in the storage means 23. Even if there is a gradual change, etc., it is possible to confirm the identity of the person corresponding to the change.

  Furthermore, this artificial intelligence means, the authentication information once transmitted by the mother B can be automatically verified based on the learning result after the second time.

  Next, step S <b> 6 is a stage in which the electric lock control device 3 acquires the IC tag use permission information from the authentication terminal 6. When the electric lock control device 3 acquires the use permission information of the IC tag from the authentication terminal 6, after confirming the registration information of the authentication terminal 6, the activation information that activates the unlock key is transmitted to the IC tag. As a result, the unlock key of the IC tag that is normally invalid or sleeping is activated (step S7). Therefore, when the identified child A presses the release button of the IC doug 1, the electric lock 8 that has received the release signal unlocks the electric lock 8 of the opening / closing body 7 (step S8).

  As described above, in this embodiment, for example, the electric lock control device 3 activates the unlock information for activating the unlock key of the IC tag 1 possessed by the specific person A on the condition that the use permission information is acquired. Is transmitted to the IC tag, and when the unlocking key is obtained from the activated IC tag 1, control is performed so as to unlock the electric lock provided on the entrance door or gate of the building.

  In the present embodiment, when the electric lock control device 3 acquires the use permission information of the IC doug from the authentication terminal 6, after confirming the registration information of the authentication terminal 6, the activation that the unlock key is activated for the IC doug Although the case of transmitting information has been described, in a different embodiment, the electric lock control device acquires an unlock key together with ID information when an IC tag possessed by a specific person approaches, and temporarily stores it in its storage unit. Alternatively, the unlock key may be stored in advance, and the unlock key may be activated when use permission information is acquired from an external communication terminal. In this case, the identified child A does not need to press the unlock button of the IC tag 1, and when the release signal is received, the electric lock 8 automatically unlocks the electric lock 8 of the opening / closing body 7. To do.

  In a further different embodiment, when the electric lock control device 3 acquires the use permission information from the authentication terminal 6, the electric lock control device 3 may directly control the unlocking of the electric lock 8. In this embodiment, the electric lock 8 can be unlocked without activating the unlocking key of the IC tag.

  In the present embodiment, the identification information stored in the storage unit of the IC tag is described as two different ID information and the unlock key. However, the information may be the same identification information.

  In step S5, if authentication is not established, the authentication terminal 6 does not transmit use permission information to the electric lock control device 3 (for example, as it is). Then, as a matter of course, the unlock key is not activated and remains asleep. Therefore, the electric lock 8 cannot be unlocked by the IC doug 1.

(6) Configuration for Returning the Electric Lock to the Locked State As an additional requirement, FIG. 4 (a) returns the electric lock to the locked state when a predetermined time (t) elapses after the electric lock 8 is unlocked. It shows that it controls. The predetermined time (t) is, for example, 20 when the child A is invited by a play friend and temporarily leaves the front door even though the electric lock is unlocked at the front door. When seconds to 30 seconds have elapsed, the electric lock control device 3 returns the electric lock 8 to the locked state (step S9).

(7) Configuration for controlling the unlocking key of the IC tag so as to be in a normal state The control so that the unlocking key of the IC tag is brought into a normal state can be controlled by a command signal from the electric lock control device 3 or the IC tag itself However, in the present embodiment, the IC tag itself is not a specific requirement of the electric lock system in the narrow sense or the unlocking method of the electric lock. The electric lock control device 3 controls the unlock key of the activated IC tag to be in a normal state when a predetermined time has elapsed after the electric lock is unlocked without setting the tag as a constituent requirement (step S10). . Therefore, FIG. 4B also has the same configuration as FIG. In addition, each structure of step S9 and step S10 may be added after step S8 by "OR" or "AND".

  Finally, FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are schematic explanatory diagrams showing that the concept of the opening / closing body 7 includes “shared gates of collective housing and doors of delivery boxes”, respectively. In these drawings, reference numeral X1 denotes an exit opening / closing body control system. The exit opening / closing body control system X1 includes the electric lock system X for entry / exit described in the first embodiment.

  The exit opening / closing body control system X1 is authentication information held by the unlocking key 1 when the authentication information of the specific person is the unlocking key for the opening / closing body possessed by the specific person. On the other hand, when the specific person is a person who does not have the unlocking key 1 (for example, a delivery person for delivery), the identification information of “specific person A” is, for example, the state of the specific person ( Clothes, hats, etc.), a specific person's fingerprint, a specific person's voiceprint, a specific person's voice, etc.

  Therefore, the external authentication terminal 6 of the second embodiment confirms the authentication information of the specific person A given from the opening / closing body control device 3 by the approach information notification described above, and the authentication information of the specific person A is used. If it is determined that the identification information can be permitted, the use permission information of the opening / closing body is transmitted to the opening / closing body control device 3 via the communication unit 21 and the communication network 5, and the use permission information is received. The opening / closing body control device 3 controls to activate the opening / closing body unlocking key 1 possessed by the specific person A, for example, if the specific person's authentication information is possessed by the specific person A If the opening / closing body 7B provided at the doorway 7A is controlled to open, or if the specific person does not have the unlocking key 1 (for example, a delivery person for delivery), for example, specify The home delivery box is used as authentication information. It controls to solve the locking of the lock of the opening and closing member 7C of the scan 30 is either.

  By the way, the exit opening / closing body control system X1 includes a photographing device 9 that acquires the face and appearance information (including a uniform and a hat) of a specific person A in the vicinity of the entrance / exit 7A of the common section or in any of the opening / closing bodies 7B. (See FIGS. 2 and 5). In the embodiment, the delivery box 30 having a plurality of large and small opening / closing bodies 7C is installed on the floor F of the common entrance 29 of the building (see 6).

  And the input part (for example, reading device) 2, 2, 2 which reads the identification information of the specific person A with respect to the opening / closing body 7B of the shared section and / or the large and small opening / closing bodies 7C of the distribution box 30, respectively. These input sections 2 are electrically connected to one or a plurality of opening / closing body control devices 3 by wire or wirelessly. Further, the single or plural opening / closing body control devices 3 are connected to one or plural external authentication terminal communication units 4 that can be connected to the communication network 5. Thus, even if the range of application of the present invention is widened, the main problems can be achieved.

  The present invention is used, for example, as an electric lock system for entering and leaving a house and a method for unlocking the electric lock.
