DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0016]
FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a configuration of an electric lock control device according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, the electric lock control device 10 has a lock state detection unit 12, which indicates a lock state indicating whether the electric lock is locked or unlocked from the electric lock to be controlled. The signal is input, and the lock state detection unit 12 detects the lock / unlock state of the electric lock. In addition, a signal indicating whether the door on which the electric lock is installed is open or closed is also input to the door open / close state monitoring unit 14 from the electric lock.
[0017]
Further, the electric lock control device 10 is provided with a control means 16 for controlling the entire operation. The control means 16 controls the locking / unlocking control unit 18 so as to lock or unlock the electric lock according to a predetermined program based on a preset schedule or a usage form of the electric lock. A lock signal or an unlock signal is output. The schedule or program is stored in the storage unit 20. As a result, for example, even if an electric lock installed on the door is locked by a thumb turn during the operation of a CD / ATM corner, it is possible to control to automatically transmit an unlock signal to the electric lock and unlock the electric lock. It becomes.
[0018]
In this embodiment, the lock state detection unit 12 receives the lock / unlock detection results from the lock state detection unit 12, and the door open / close state monitoring unit 14 receives the door open / close state monitoring results from the lock state detection unit 12. . The control means 16 activates the time counting unit 22 when the lock state detection unit 12 detects the locking of the electric lock, and measures the predetermined time from the time when the locking of the electric lock is detected. When the time measuring unit 22 detects the elapse of the predetermined time, the control unit 16 determines whether or not to transmit an unlocking signal from the locking / unlocking control unit 18 to the electric lock. This determination is performed based on the operation mode of the electric lock. As an operation mode of the electric lock, an automatic lock mode when the store is closed, an unlock mode in which the electric lock is unlocked in principle when the store is open, etc., in a room where an electric lock is installed. When there is a need to work, for example, there is a work mode in the case of performing cash compensation or maintenance on a CD / ATM. These operation modes are stored in the mode storage unit 24.
[0019]
For example, in the automatic locking mode, the unlock signal is not transmitted to the electric lock even when the predetermined time has elapsed. Or it can also be set as the structure by which the control means 16 does not start the time measuring part 22 even if an electric lock is locked.
[0020]
In the unlocking mode, the control means 16 transmits an unlocking signal from the locking / unlocking control unit 18 to the electric lock in accordance with the program described above, and holds the electric lock in the unlocked state. When the electric lock is locked in this state, the predetermined time is counted as described above, but this predetermined time can be appropriately determined according to the usage form of the electric lock. For example, in the case of an electric lock installed at the door of a CD / ATM corner, in order to prevent illegal users from staying illegally in a room in a sufficient time for general users to use the CD / ATM It is preferable to set the time to about 3 minutes. When the time measuring unit 22 detects that the predetermined time has elapsed, the control means 16 transmits an unlock signal from the locking / unlocking control unit 18 to the electric lock, and unlocks the electric lock.
[0021]
Further, when the control means 16 takes in the work mode signal from the mode setting device via the LAN interface 26, the control means 16 sets the work mode and maintains the work mode until a cancel signal is input from the mode setting device. . In the case of this work mode, even if the electric lock is locked, the control means 16 determines not to output the unlock signal from the lock / unlock control unit 18. In addition, it is also preferable that the control unit 16 outputs a locking signal from the locking / unlocking control unit 18 by an input from the mode setting device to set the electric lock to the locked state. In this case, the lock signal is output after the control means 16 confirms that the monitoring result from the door open / close state monitoring unit 14 is closed. This is because if the lock signal is output with the door open, the dead bolt of the electric lock protrudes and the door cannot be closed.
[0022]
The mode setting device is composed of, for example, a card reader. In this case, a card reader is also installed in the room in which the electric lock is installed, and the electric lock control device 10 can be set to the work mode by allowing a worker to read a predetermined card when performing work. Also, the work mode can be canceled by reading a predetermined card again at the end of the work. When canceling the work mode, the operation mode is shifted to an electric lock operation mode such as an automatic lock mode or an unlock mode according to a preset schedule.
[0023]
The control means 16 that operates as described above functions as a determination unit and a mode setting unit according to the present invention. When the unlocking state cannot be detected by the lock state detection unit 12 even if the unlocking signal is output to the electric lock, or when the locking state detection unit 12 cannot detect the locking state even if the locking signal is output to the electric lock. In this case, the control unit 16 reports an abnormality to the external monitoring center via the communication unit 28.
[0024]
FIG. 2 shows a flow of operations in the unlocking mode and the working mode of the electric lock control device 10 according to the present embodiment shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, when the lock state detection part 12 detects the lock state of the electric lock (S1), the control means 16 starts the timer of the time measuring part 22 (S2).
[0025]
Until the timing unit 22 detects the passage of a predetermined time (S3), it is monitored whether the lock state detection unit 12 detects the unlocking of the electric lock (S4), and the timer is released when the electric lock is unlocked. (Stopped) (S5) and returns to S1.
[0026]
Further, when the time measuring unit 22 detects the elapse of a predetermined time (S3), the control means 16 confirms whether or not the work mode is set (S6), and if it is not the work mode, the unlocking control unit 18 unlocks it. A signal is output and the electric lock is unlocked (S7). In this case, the control means 16 monitors the unlocked state detection signal from the lock state detecting unit 12 (S8), and when this signal cannot be received within a predetermined time, an abnormality report is externally monitored via the reporting means 28. Perform to the center (S9).
[0027]
If the work mode is set in S6, the timer is canceled (S10). The canceled timer is restarted in S2. As a result, the unlock signal is not output to the electric lock during the work mode, and the electric lock is held in the locked state.
