As a result of the determination, if the registration condition as a user is not satisfied, a message to that effect is notified to the user, and the process is terminated.
[0027]
If the registration information as a user is satisfied as a result of the determination, the user information processing unit 15 issues a user ID to the user according to a predetermined rule, and associates it with the user ID. The user information requested for registration is stored in the user information database 11 (S106), and the process is terminated.
[0028]
Next, a locking control method using the center server 1 will be described.
First, with reference to FIG. 8, the flow of processing when the locker locks the electronic lock locker 3 will be described.
In FIG. 8, when the communication control unit 14 receives the locking process start message notified from the locker's mobile phone terminal 2a (S201), the user information processing unit 15 sends the user ID and the usage to the locker. The user password input request message is notified (S202).
When the locker inputs the user ID and the user password in response to the request, the user information processing unit 15 refers to the user information database 11 and determines whether the user ID and the user password are correct. (S203).
If the user ID or the user password is incorrect as a result of the determination, the authentication processing unit 16 returns to the step of S202 and notifies the user ID and user password input request message again.
[0029]
If the user ID and the user password are correct as a result of the determination, the lock processing unit 17 notifies the locker of a locker ID transmission request message for locking (S204).
In response to this request, the locker uses the image reading device of the mobile phone terminal 2 to read the barcode 3a displayed on the locker to be used, and the mobile phone terminal 2a encodes the read barcode information 3a. When transmitted, the authentication processing unit 16 accepts the transmitted locker ID (S205).
The lock processing unit 17 refers to the usage status of the locker information database 12 and determines whether or not the electronic locker 3 having the received locker ID is in an “empty” state (S206).
[0030]
When it is determined that the locker designated by the locker is in use, the lock processing unit 17 returns to S204 and instructs the locker to select another locker.
Further, when the locker designated by the locker is in an “empty” state, the authentication processing unit 16 issues an unlocking password, notifies the locker of this, and uses the unlocking password. Store in the database 13 (S207).
[0031]
When the locker notified of the unlocking password confirms the locking by storing the luggage in the locker or the like, the lock processing unit 17 notifies the lock instruction message to the locker of the locker (S208).
When this locking instruction is given, the locking processing unit 17 updates the usage status of the locker in the locker information database 12 to “in use” (S209).
The locking processing unit 17 uses the date and time when the electronic lock locker 3 is instructed to lock as the use start date and time, and stores the use start date and time, the usage status ID, the user ID, and the like in association with the locker ID. (S210), the process ends.
[0032]
Next, with reference to FIG. 9, the flow of processing when the unlocker unlocks the electronic lock locker 3 will be described.
First, when the unlocker notifies the unlocking request message of the electronic lock locker 3 from the mobile phone terminal 2b, the communication control unit 14 accepts the unlocking request message (S301), and the unlocking processing unit 18 receives the unlocking requester's message. A mobile phone number input request message is notified to the mobile phone terminal 2b (S302).
When the unlocker inputs his / her mobile phone number using the mobile phone terminal 2b, the user information processing unit 15 receives the notified mobile phone number (S303), and the user having the mobile phone number is received. Is registered in the user information database 11 (S304).
As a result of the determination, if it is not registered, the user information processing unit 15 repeats the process in S302.
In this case, the process may be terminated without repeating the process. In addition, the notification of the mobile phone number may be obtained by using a calling number notification function provided by the mobile phone operator.
[0033]
If the unlocked person's mobile phone number is registered as a result of the determination, the unlocking processing unit 18 notifies the unlocker of an input request message of a locker ID for unlocking (S305). ).
In response to this request, the unlocker reads the barcode 3a displayed on the locker using the image reading device of the mobile phone terminal 2, and encodes and transmits the read barcode by the mobile phone terminal 2b. The unlocking processing unit 18 receives the encoded locker ID (S306).
The unlocking processing unit 18 refers to the usage status of the locker information database 12 and determines whether or not the usage status of the locker ID is “in use” (S307).
As a result of the determination, when the use state of the locker corresponding to the locker ID is “free”, the process returns to S305 to request the user to input the locker ID again.
[0034]
In FIG. 10, if the locker is “in use” as a result of the determination, the authentication processing unit 16 associates the input unlocker's mobile phone number with the locker ID in the usage status database 13. It is discriminated whether it matches the stored mobile phone number of the unlocker (S308).
If the result of the determination is that they do not match, it is assumed that the unlocker is not authorized to unlock the locker, a message to that effect is sent to the unlocker, and the process is terminated.
[0035]
If they match as a result of the determination, the authentication processing unit 16 notifies the locker's mobile terminal 3a of an unlocking password transmission request message (S309).
When the unlocking password acquired when the locker is locked in response to this request is input and notified via the mobile phone terminal 2a, the authentication processing unit 16 receives the input unlocking password (S310), It is determined whether or not the received unlocking password matches the unlocking password stored in the usage status database 13 (S311).
If the unlocking password is not correct as a result of the determination, the process returns to S309 to request the user to input the unlocking password again. Note that the processing may be terminated without requesting the input of the unlocking password again.
[0036]
As a result of the determination, if it is determined that the input unlocking password is correct, the unlocking processing unit 18 sets the date and time as the use end date and time (S312).
When the use end date / time is confirmed, the settlement processing unit 19 calculates the use fee from the use end date / time and the use start date / time stored in the use state database 13, and uses the locker use time (use start date / time and use end date / time). ) And the usage fee are notified to the locker (S313).
[0037]
When the locker confirms the notified usage time and usage fee, the settlement processing unit 19 refers to the settlement information of the locker registered in the user information database 11 and sets the settlement organization of the designated settlement organization. The system 4 is requested to perform a settlement process for the usage fee (S314).
When the settlement process is completed by the settlement agency system 4, the unlocking processing unit 18 issues an unlocking instruction to the locker requested to unlock (S315).
[0038]
When the unlocking processing unit 18 issues an unlocking instruction, the usage status of the electronic lock locker 3 in the locker information database 12 is updated to “empty” (S316).
Further, the unlocking processing unit 18 stores / updates a usage status record in the usage status database 13 (S317).
In this storage / update, for example, the use end date and time and the usage fee are stored, the usage status ID is updated to “available”, and the settlement status is also updated to “paid”.
Then, when these processes are completed, the unlocking process is terminated.
Thus, according to this embodiment, the lock processing unit 17 locks the locker based on a request from the locker, and at this time, the authentication processing unit 16 notifies the locker of the unlocking password. When an unlock request is received from an unlocker different from this locker, the locker who performed the lock is requested to enter the unlock password, and the entered password is correct In addition, since the unlocking processing unit 18 unlocks the locker, even if the locker and the unlocker are different, it is easy to unlock the locker without delivering a physical key. It can be performed.
In particular, since the unlocking password is directly inquired to the locker, it is not necessary for the locker to tell the unlocking password to the unlocker, and the unlocking password may be accidentally leaked. The locker can be unlocked safely.
[0040]
In addition, since no physical key is used, it is not necessary for the operator of the electronic lock locker 3 to take measures to prevent the physical key from being duplicated or damaged, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the locker. In addition, since the user ID of the locker 3 is stored in the usage status database 13 in association with the identification information of the electronic lock locker 3, for the operator of the electronic lock locker 3, the locker user Can be specified.
[0041]
The lock processing unit 17 accepts the input of the mobile phone number of the unlocker who has the authority to unlock the locker when performing the lock, and the authentication processing unit 16 receives the input of the unlocker's mobile phone number from the unlocker's mobile phone number. Since it was decided to unlock after unlocking the locker, only unlockers with the unlocking authority can make a request to unlock the locker. Even if a non-user requests unlocking, it is possible to prevent the locker from being unlocked.
[0042]
In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the mobile phone number of the unlocker is registered in the center server 1 in advance has been described. Whether or not to unlock the locker by notifying the locker of information (for example, the mobile phone number, name or user ID) that can identify the unlocker who has requested the unlocking You may make it confirm. Thereby, it is possible to determine whether or not to unlock the user by confirming the information of the unlocker notified by the locker.
[0043]
Further, since the user's payment information is stored in the user information database 11 and the payment processing unit 19 makes the payment organization perform the payment processing of the usage fee with reference to this, the usage information is used. For a person, it is possible to eliminate the need to prepare coins or the like for paying a usage fee in advance. In addition, for the operator of the electronic lock locker 3, the labor cost and labor required for collecting the usage fee can be reduced.
[0044]
Further, the mobile phone terminal 2 is a portable terminal that can read an image such as a CCD camera, and the identification information of the electronic lock locker 3 is barcode information, so that the user can use an image reading device such as a CCD camera of the mobile phone terminal 2. The identification information can be easily read, and the labor of inputting can be saved.
[0045]
In the above-described embodiment, an example in which a bar code is used as the locker ID has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be a number, a character, a figure, or the like.
Alternatively, the user may input a locker ID by performing a key operation without providing an image reading unit such as a CCD camera in the mobile terminal.
[0046]
In addition to the configuration of the center server 1, referring to the usage status of the locker information database 12, the “free locker information” of the electronic lock locker 3 is monitored, and this unused locker information is provided to each user. Then, the locker used by the user may be selected. Accordingly, the user can easily use the nearest free locker by referring to the free locker information as appropriate.
[0047]
In addition, in response to a usage fee inquiry request from a user, the settlement processing unit 19 may individually answer the usage fee at that time.
As a result, the user can accurately grasp the usage fee even at that time.
[0048]
In the above-described embodiment, the embodiment in which the user is registered in advance has been described. However, the user registration is not necessarily required, and the system may be used by an unspecified user.
In this case, at the time of making the lock request, the authentication processing unit 16 requests the payment information to be settled for payment of the usage fee, or leaves the personal authentication processing to the clearing house system 4 of the clearing house. You may make it notify a payment institution etc. which the user input to the payment organization, and make a payment organization perform personal authentication.
Further, not only a paid system but also a free system may be used, and in the case of a free system, payment processing may not be performed.
[0049]
In the above-described embodiment, the unlocking password (authentication information), the use start date and time and the use end date and time are stored in the use status database 13, but these are stored in separate databases and the like. Also good.
[0050]
In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the mobile phone terminal 2 is used as a mobile terminal has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be a mobile terminal such as a PDA (Personal Digital Assistance) or a personal computer. I just need it.
[0051]
