As described above, the technique of Patent Document 1 can limit the call to the call from the collective entrance machine, and is effective for a suspicious person. However, since it was not possible to impose restrictions on the call operation of the entrance slave unit installed at the entrance of the living room, it is possible to control the suspicious person who has once advanced to the living area so that the call cannot be made. There wasn't.
In addition, since it is the resident who is registered as a suspicious person, even a visitor who is not a suspicious person may be registered as a suspicious person, which may cause confusion.

Therefore, in view of such a problem, the present invention prohibits the visitor from calling the entrance slave unit for a room other than the visit destination called from the collective entrance machine without registering the visitor as a suspicious person. The purpose is to provide an intercom system for apartments.

In order to solve the above problems, the invention of claim 1 includes a collective entrance machine installed at the entrance of an apartment house, an entrance slave unit installed at the entrance of each room, and a room master unit installed in each room. It is an apartment house interphone system equipped with a controller for controlling communication between devices.

It has a living room floor information storage unit that stores the relationship with the living room floor, a person identification unit that identifies a person from an image captured by a camera, and a visitor information registration unit that stores visitor information for identification. When the auto door for advancing from the entrance to the living area is unlocked by the resident who was called by operating the collective entrance machine, the identification unit uses the visitor image captured by the camera of the collective entrance machine as the callee's room number. While registering in the visitor information registration section, the person captured by the camera of the entrance slave unit is registered in the visitor information registration section by monitoring the image captured by the camera of the entrance slave unit that was called. If the room of the entrance slave unit that has been identified as the person being identified and has been called matches the room number associated with the identified registration image, the call is permitted, and if the room numbers do not match, the call is permitted. It is characterized by not doing so.
According to this configuration, regarding the visit to the living room called by the collective entrance machine, the resident can be called by operating the entrance slave unit, but the calling operation can be performed even if the entrance slave unit of the room that is not called is operated. Do not do. Therefore, it is possible to deal with malicious visitors and improve security. In addition, even if the visitor is not registered as a suspicious person, the call operation of the visitor can be restricted, and the response of the visitor is not confused.

According to the invention of claim 2, in the configuration according to claim 1, the entrance slave unit or the living room master unit has a message storage unit for storing a predetermined message, and the entrance slave whose call control is prohibited by the person identification unit. The machine is characterized by sounding a memorized message.
According to this configuration, when the entrance slave unit in the living room that is not called by the collective entrance unit is called, a message indicating that the destination is wrong, for example, is sounded from the entrance slave unit. Therefore, the visitor who made the call feels that he / she is a suspicious person and becomes uncomfortable.

According to the invention of claim 3, in the configuration according to claim 1 or 2, a camera is installed in the elevator used when the visitor heads for the visited room, and the person identification unit is imaged by the camera of the elevator. If the person who made the request is identified as a person registered in the visitor information registration department, the floor to be stopped is identified based on the room number information linked to the registered image and the information in the room floor information storage unit, and the elevator is used. Is characterized by stopping at a specified floor.
According to this configuration, the elevator on which the visitor is boarding automatically stops on the floor where the room with the number entered by the collective entrance machine is located, so that the visitor does not need to set the stop floor. Therefore, the visitor cannot set the floor to go down without permission, and the security can be improved.

According to the invention of claim 4, in the configuration according to claim 3, the person identification unit is different from the floor set to stop by the identified person from the image captured by the camera of the elevator even though the stop floor is set. When it recognizes that it will get off the elevator on the floor, it will perform an alarm operation, and an alarm sound will be issued in the elevator.
According to this configuration, if a visitor tries to get off on a floor different from the floor where the living room is called by the collective entrance machine, an alarm is issued, so that the visit destination of the visitor can be restricted and the security of the apartment can be improved.

According to the present invention, with respect to the visit to the living room called by the collective entrance machine, the resident can be called by operating the entrance slave unit, but even if the entrance slave unit of the unlinked living room is operated. Do not call. Therefore, it is possible to deal with malicious visitors and improve security. In addition, even if the visitor is not registered as a suspicious person, the call operation of the visitor can be restricted, and the response of the visitor is not confused.

Then, the controller control unit 54 includes a person identification unit 54a that identifies the person being imaged based on the captured images of the camera 11 of the first collective entrance machine 1, the camera 21 of the second collective entrance machine 2, and the like. There is. The person identification unit 54a determines whether or not the visitor imaged by the camera 11 of the first collective entrance machine 1 and the person imaged by the other cameras 21 and 31 and the second surveillance camera 9b are the same person. It has a function.

The operation of the condominium intercom system configured as described above is as follows. When the first collective entrance unit 1 is operated by the visitor, the room number of the visited place is input and the call operation is performed, the call signal is transmitted to the room master unit 4 of the call destination room under the control of the intercom controller 5. .. Upon receiving the call, the living room master unit 4 rings a ringing tone to notify the resident that a visitor has appeared. Further, together with the call signal, the captured image of the camera 11 of the first collective entrance unit 1 is transmitted to the living room master unit 4 via the intercom controller 5 and displayed on the display unit 45 of the living room master unit 4.

When the resident who recognizes the call by the ringing tone performs a response operation, a communication path is formed between the first collective entrance unit 1 and the living room master unit 4, and a call can be made between the visitor and the resident. When the operation unit 44 is unlocked by the resident who is recognized as a visitor by this call, the unlocking signal is sent to the first auto door 6a via the intercom controller 5 and the first collective entrance machine 1. It is transmitted and the first auto door 6a is unlocked.
As a result, the visitor can proceed to the living area through the first auto door 6a which is unlocked and opened from the main entrance.

Further, in response to the unlocking operation of the first auto door 6a by the resident, the person identification unit 54a of the controller control unit 54 extracts an image capable of authenticating the visitor from the image captured by the camera 11 of the first collective entrance machine 1. Then, the room number entered in the first set entrance machine 1 which is the visit destination is linked and saved in the visitor information registration unit 52.

Hereinafter, the room to be visited will be described as room 501 on the 5th floor. The controller control unit 54 grasps from the living room floor information storage unit 53 that the destination of the visitor is the living room floor on the 5th floor from the living room number information called by the visitor. Then, the monitoring of the captured image of the second surveillance camera 9b of the elevator 7 used when the visitor goes to the 5th floor is started.
In addition, among the second collective entrance machines 2 installed on each living room floor, at least the camera 21 of the second collective entrance machine 2 installed on the fifth floor, which is the destination of the visitor, is activated and registered. Wait for visitors to appear.

The first surveillance camera 9a and the second surveillance camera 9b constantly perform imaging, and are used for the purpose of improving security such as intrusion of a suspicious person. Therefore, the first surveillance camera 9a may be used as the camera of the first collective entrance machine 1 instead of the captured image of the camera 11 of the first collective entrance machine 1. In this case, the image captured by the first surveillance camera 9a is used as the registered image for the person identification unit 54a to identify the person.

When the controller control unit 54, which monitors the captured image of the second surveillance camera 9b, recognizes from the captured image that a person has boarded the elevator 7, it is a visitor registered by the person identification unit 54a. Is determined. As a result of the determination, when the person in the registered image associated with Room 501 is identified, the controller control unit 54 transmits a control signal to the elevator controller 8 to stop the elevator 7 on the 5th floor. Will be done.
Upon receiving this control signal, the elevator controller 8 controls to stop the elevator 7 on the 5th floor. At this time, in the elevator 7, for example, an announcement "Your visit will be on the 5th floor. It will stop on the 5th floor" is announced from the sound section (not shown).
In this way, the visitor can proceed to the desired floor without setting a stop floor.

Visitors who get off the elevator 7 that stopped on the 5th floor will have to unlock the 2nd auto door 6b that they have to go through the next time they proceed to the living room floor on the 5th floor. Approaching the collective entrance machine 2. Then, the visitor is reflected in the captured image of the camera 21 of the second collective entrance machine 2 which is already in the imaged state, and this image (image) is transmitted to the intercom controller 5.

The controller control unit 54, to which the image of the person is transmitted, determines the identification of the person imaged by the person identification unit 54a. When the person identification unit 54a identifies the person in the image transmitted from the second assembly entrance machine 2 on the 5th floor as the person in the registered image associated with the room number of No. 501, there is a registered room. Since it is on the floor, a signal for unlocking the second auto door 6b is transmitted from the intercom controller 5 to the second collective entrance machine 2.
As a result, the second auto door 6b is unlocked, and the visitor can proceed from the opened second auto door 6b to the living room floor where the room 501 is located without operating the second collective entrance machine 2.

A visitor who has passed through the unlocked second auto door 6b and came to the front of room 501 at the destination presses the call button 32 of the entrance slave unit 3, and the intercom controller 5 receives this call operation. Control as follows. Conventionally, in response to the pressing of the call button 32, the living room master unit 4 promptly sounds the ringing tone, but here, the calling operation is temporarily suspended, and the intercom controller 5 controls as follows.

When the call button 32 is pressed, the camera 31 starts imaging, and the room number is attached to the captured image and transmitted to the intercom controller 5 via the room master unit 4.
In the intercom controller 5, if there is a registered image in the visitor information registration unit 52 that is associated with the same room number from the attached room number after receiving the captured image, it is compared with the person in that image. And identify and judge. As a result of the determination, if it is determined that the person is the same person, a permission signal is transmitted to the living room master unit 4. Here, the permission signal is transmitted to the living room master unit 4 of the room 501.
Upon receiving the permission signal, the living room master unit 4 sounds a ringing tone to perform a normal ringing operation.

On the other hand, if there is no registered image associated with the room number of the captured image transmission source, or if the person cannot be identified as the person in the registered image, a prohibition signal is transmitted to the room master unit 4 instead of the permission signal. The living room master unit 4 that has suspended the ringing operation does not perform the calling operation itself in response to this prohibition signal, and does not sound the ringing tone. Instead, in the living room master unit 4 that has received the prohibition signal, the message stored in the message storage unit 47 is sounded from the speaker 34 of the entrance slave unit 3 under the control of the master unit control unit 46. For example, the message "This is not your destination, did you make a mistake?" Is sounded.

If there are multiple destinations from the beginning, all the destination dwelling units can be called first from the first set entrance machine 1 and multiple room numbers can be registered, and each visit can be made without returning to the main entrance. A person can visit multiple rooms smoothly.

In this way, regarding the visit to the living room called by the first collective entrance unit 1, the resident can be called by operating the entrance slave unit 3, but the entrance slave unit 3 of the room that is not called can be operated. Does not call. Therefore, it is possible to deal with malicious visitors and improve security. In addition, even if the visitor is not registered as a suspicious person, the call operation of the visitor can be restricted, and the response of the visitor is not confused.
In addition, when the entrance slave unit 3 in the living room that has not been called by the first collective entrance unit 1 is called, a message indicating that the destination is wrong is reported from the entrance slave unit 3. Therefore, the visitor who made the call feels that he / she is a suspicious person and becomes uncomfortable.
Further, since the elevator 7 on which the visitor is riding automatically stops on the floor where the room with the number input by the first collective entrance machine 1 is located, the visitor does not need to set the stop floor. Therefore, the visitor cannot set the floor to go down without permission, and the security can be improved.

Here, if the floor on which the visitor descends from the elevator 7 is not the automatically set 5th floor, for example, if the visitor himself specifies another floor for some reason, or if the floor is not the 5th floor, the elevator is on the way. The case where the elevator 7 is opened by mistake and the elevator 7 is opened will be described.
From the captured image (image) of the second surveillance camera 9b, go down from the elevator 7 on a floor different from the floor where the person identification unit 54a is registered (the floor where the room with the room number linked to the registered image is located). Recognize. Then, an alarm sound is issued from the alarm sound unit of the elevator 7 to call attention.

In this way, if the visitor tries to get off on a floor different from the floor where the living room is called by the collective entrance machine 1, an alarm is issued, so that the visitor's destination can be restricted and the security of the apartment can be improved.

In the above embodiment, the determination is made based on the captured image of the camera 31 activated by pressing the call button 32 of the entrance slave unit 3, but when the second auto door 6b is unlocked, the visit destination The camera 31 of the entrance slave unit 3 of the room 501 may be activated. In this case, the person can be identified without waiting for the call button 32 to be pressed, and if the call is made by a registered visitor, the ringing tone can be promptly sounded from the room master unit 4.
Further, for a friend who lives in the same apartment, by registering the image of the friend in the visitor information registration unit 52 in advance, the resident is suddenly called from the entrance slave unit 3 without operating the assembly entrance machine 1. It is also possible to flexibly respond to the visits of friends in the apartment complex.
