<First Embodiment>
Hereinafter, a first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a system configuration diagram showing a gate system according to the first embodiment. There are a plurality of gates 10 in a management area 100 to be described later, and each gate 10 includes a door 10-1 of each room, an electronic lock 1 installed on the door 10-1, and an entrance permit key reading device 2. . The electronic lock 1 installed on the door 10 of each living room unlocks and locks the door 10. An entrance permit key reading device 2 is installed near the electronic lock 1 and is connected to the electronic lock 1 and is also connected to the entrance / exit management system 3 via a network. The admission permit key reading device 2 reads key information stored in an admission permit 7 to be described later and transmits it to the entrance / exit management system 3. When the release permission signal from the entrance / exit management system 3 is received, the electronic lock 1 is driven to release. When the electronic lock 1 is released, a visitor or a visitor can open the door 10 and pass through the gate 10. The entrance / exit management system 3 determines whether the electronic lock 1 is permitted to be released or not based on information stored in various tables of the database 4 to be described later.

  At the reception in the lobby of the management area 100, there is a reception management system 5 in which a guest as a visitor inputs guest information such as a guest's name and a name of a visiting party as a visitor. The reception management system 5 is connected to the entrance permit issuing machine 6 and further connected to the database 4. When the guest information is input, the reception management system 5 instructs the entrance permit issuing machine 6 to issue the entrance permit 7. The admission permit 7 is a medium such as a card that stores identification information (hereinafter referred to as ID) for the permitter. In other words, it is an information storage medium that stores at least the entrance permit ID 300 as personal ID information for the guest, and is possessed when the guest moves in the management area 100. When the admission management system 5 issues an admission permit 7 to a guest, the reception management system 5 displays a destination that is the destination of the guest by a display device.

  Further, the reception management system 5 is connected to the CTI system 8 via a network. The CTI system 8 is further connected to a wireless extension telephone access point 9 via a network. The wireless extension telephone access point 9 is installed at a required point in the management area 100 and enables connection with the wireless extension telephone 20 possessed by the visited party.

  Further, the gate system according to the present embodiment includes a current position management system 11 as a search unit that searches for the current location of the visited partner P that is the destination of the visitor. The current location management system 11 retrieves the current location of the visited party or visitor and manages it later by the management units (a1 to k11) of the management area 100 shown in FIG. The current location management system 11 is also connected to the database 4. In a simple configuration, the current position detection method may be a method of recording an entrance record into a room and determining a room with the last entry record as the current position. Alternatively, it may be determined which access point is used by a wireless terminal such as a PHS (Personal Handy-phone System) or PDA (Personal Digital Assistants). Further, it may be determined by three-point survey using ZigBee (short-range wireless communication standard for home appliances) or RFID (Radio Frequency Identification, non-contact automatic recognition technology using radio waves).

  The entrance / exit management system 3, the reception management system 5, the CTI system 8, and the current position management system 11 incorporate a program in a storage unit (not shown), and a control unit (not shown) will be described later by causing the computer to execute the program. Perform the action.

  FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a floor layout of the management area 100. The management area 100 is an area where the number of people who can enter and leave is restricted, and is set, for example, for an entire facility, an entire factory, an entire building, or a room in a building. The management area 100 includes a reception lobby, a living room A, a living room B, a meeting room 1, a meeting room 2, a machine room, and the like, and each room is connected via a passage 1 and a passage 2. Each room is provided with locks 31-40. The locks 31 to 40 are always locked, and only those who are permitted to release can pass. Each room has a range in which the guest can pass from the viewpoint of maintaining confidentiality, and the pass range of the guest is managed by a release permission table 43 described later. Since the visiting partner P is an employee as a visitor, all the locks 31 to 40 in the management area 100 are allowed to pass.

  FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing management units in the management area 100 managed by the current location management system 11. The management unit is composed of a grid-like region divided into a to k in the vertical direction and 1 to 11 in the horizontal direction. Furthermore, it corresponds to the floor layout. For example, the position information f1, f2, f3, g1, g2, g3 indicates the conference room 2.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing the initial state of each table. FIG. 5A shows an employee table 41, in which a person's room and an entrance permit ID as identification information of the person are stored in advance for each employee. For example, the seat of employee P is in room B and the admission ID is 101. The entrance permit 7 may be an employee ID in the case of an employee.

  FIG. 4B shows a route table 42 from reception to a destination as a destination. The route table 42 as the route storage unit stores in advance the electronic lock ID of the gate 10 that must be released in the route from the lobby where the reception is made to each destination. For example, the lock 32 and the lock 36 must be released on the route from the lobby where the reception is located to the room B.

  FIG. 4C shows the release permission table 43. The release permission table 43 serving as a release permission storage unit stores an entry permit ID that is permitted to release the electronic lock 1 corresponding to the electronic lock ID. For example, it is indicated that the employee 101 and the employee 102 are permitted to release the electronic lock 31. In the case of an employee, since all electronic locks 31 to 40 in the management area 100 are permitted to be released, the entry permit IDs of all employees are stored.

  FIG. 6D shows the guest table 44, and the guest, the visiting partner P visited by the guest, and the entrance permit ID are recorded in correspondence with the guest entrance permit ID. When a guest receives an entrance permit 7 from the entrance permit issuing machine 6, the reception management system 5 accesses the database 4 and stores the information in the guest table 44.

  FIG. 5E shows a current position management table 45, in which the detailed current positions where employees and guests X exist are stored for each management unit. For example, it indicates that the employee (visit partner P) currently exists in the position information e6 (that is, the living room B).

  FIG. 5F shows the position information table 46, in which the relationship between the position information (a1 to K11) and the room name is stored in advance. For example, the location information a1 is the lobby where the reception is located, the location information e6 is the living room B, and the location information g2 is the conference room 2.

  Next, operations related to the first embodiment will be described. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation of the reception management system 5 relating to the first embodiment. In the figure, the guest X enters the lobby from the entrance, and the name and number of the guest X, the name of the visited party, etc. are registered by the reception management system 5 (S101). For example, the guest name is X, the number of people is 1, and the visited party is P, an employee.

  The control means (not shown) of the reception management system 5 requests the CTI system 8 to make a call to the visited party P (S102). The control means of the reception management system 5 inquires where the guest X should be guided. It is desirable that the content to be inquired is a selection type such as “1; to the current position of the visited partner P”, “2; to the seat of the visited partner P”, and “3; The visited party P can answer the selected number by pressing a push button (not shown) of the wireless extension telephone 20.

  When the control means of the reception management system 5 receives the answer of the guidance location from the visited party P (S103), it is first determined whether or not the guest X needs to move (S104). When the movement is not required, the control means of the reception management system 5 has the guest X wait in the lobby (S112), displays the guest's destination on the display as “lobby” (S113), and the admission permit 7 is issued (S114). The guest X waits in the lobby until the visited party P comes to pick you up.

  If the guest X needs to move in step 104, the control means of the reception management system 5 determines whether the destination is the current location of the visited party P (S105). If it is not the current position, that is, the destination is the seat of the visited partner P (S110), the control means of the reception management system 5 displays the destination of the guest on the display as “seat of the visited partner P” ( (S111), an admission permit 7 is issued (S114). Here, it is assumed that the visited party P has moved from the living room B where the person is seated to the conference room 2.

  When the destination is the current location of the visited partner P in step 105, the control means of the reception management system 5 requests the current location management system 11 to search the current location of the visited partner P (S106). ). Here, the current position management system 11 reads the current position management table 45 and confirms that the visited party P is in the position information g2. Then, the current location management system 11 confirms that the location information g2 of the visited party P is the conference room 2, and replies to the reception management system 5.

  When the reception management system 5 receives the current location of the visiting partner P from the current location management system 11 (107), it confirms that the destination of the guest X is the conference room 2 (S108), and displays the guest on the display device. The destination of X displays “conference room 2” (S109) and issues an admission permit 7 (S114). Further, the reception management system 5 accesses the database 4, registers the guest X, the visited party P, and the entrance permit ID 300 in the guest table 44 (S115), and passes these pieces of information to the entrance / exit management 3 (S116).

  FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing the state of the table after the admission permit to the guest X is issued. The guest table 44 shown in FIG. 4D stores the guest X, the visited party P, and the entrance permit ID 300. Note that the route from the lobby as the departure point to the conference room 2 as the destination is as indicated by the solid line arrow in FIG. 2, and permission to release the lock 31 and the lock 34 in the middle is required. However, the release range of the electronic lock permitted to the guest X only needs to be given permission to release the lock 31 and the lock 34 which are the minimum necessary.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the operation of the entrance / exit management system 3 according to the first embodiment. The control means (not shown) of the entrance / exit management system 3 that has received the information from the reception management system 5 confirms the destination of the guest X, that is, the “conference room 2” in this case (S201). ), The database 4 is accessed, and the lock 31 and the lock 34 which are electronic lock IDs existing in the route from the reception to the destination “conference room 2” are read from the route table 42 shown in FIG. 6B (S202). Thereafter, the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 adds the entrance permit ID 300 of the guest X to the entrance permit list for the lock 31 and the lock 34 which are the electronic lock IDs of the release permission table 43 shown in FIG. (S203).

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the operation of the entrance / exit management system 3 according to the first embodiment. When the guest X goes from the lobby with the reception through the passage to the conference room 2, the guest X tries to pass the lock 31. When the guest X holds the entrance permit 7 over the entrance permit key reading device 2, the entrance permit key reading device 2 reads the entrance permit ID 300 from the entrance permit 7 and transmits it to the entrance / exit management system 3. When the control means (not shown) of the entrance / exit management system 3 reads the entrance permission ID (S301), it accesses the database 4 and reads the release permission table 43 shown in FIG. 6C (S302).

  The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 checks whether the lock 31 has the entrance permission ID 300 for the guest X (S303). When there is no entrance permission ID 300, the release of the lock 31 is not permitted (S305). If there is an admission permission ID 300, release of the lock 31 is permitted (S304). The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 operates similarly for the lock 34. In this way, the guest X can reach “conference room 2”, which is the current position of the visited partner P. The current position management system 11 confirms that the guest X is in the position information g2 in the same way as the current position of the visited partner P, and updates the current position management table 45 (see FIG. 6E).

  In the above description, the guidance location of the guest X received in step 103 is “1; the current location of the visited partner P”, and the current location of the visited partner P is the conference room 2. Here, when the received guide location of the guest X is “2; up to the seat of the visited party P”, the seat of the guest X is the living room B, so the living room B is the destination. Then, the lock 32 and the lock 36 existing in the route from the lobby to the room B need to be released. Therefore, the entrance / exit management system 3 adds the entrance permit ID 300 of the guest X to the entrance permit ID list of the lock 32 and the lock 36 of the release permission table 43. Other operations of the entrance / exit management system 3 are the same as described above.

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, the current position management system 11 for searching the current location of the visited partner P in the management area 100 is provided, and even if the destination of the guest X is changed each time, Corresponding to the route table 42 for storing the gate ID information for identifying the gate existing on the route from a certain lobby to the destination, the electronic lock ID and the ID information of the guest X capable of releasing the electronic lock Since the release permission table to be stored is provided, the guest X can reach the destination. Therefore, the electronic lock control system can expand the electronic lock release range so that it can move from the lobby where the reception is allowed to the location where the visited party is currently located, as to the range of release of the electronic lock permitted to the guest. Can be provided. Further, since the unlocking range of the electronic lock permitted for the guest X can be minimized, security can be ensured.

<Second Embodiment>
Next, a second embodiment will be described. In the first embodiment, the release range permitted to the guest X is the lock 31 and the lock 34 that exist from the lobby to the conference room 2 that is the current location of the visited party P. In the second embodiment, after the meeting in the conference room 2, when moving to another place, the release range permitted to the guest X can be expanded.

  The configuration of the gate system according to the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. After the meeting in the conference room 2, a case where the visiting partner P and the guest X move to the room B in order to move the meeting place to the room B will be described. The movement path from the conference room 2 to the room B is as indicated by the broken-line arrows in FIG. 2, and it is necessary to permit the release of the lock 34, the lock 31, the lock 32, and the lock 36 in the middle. Since guest X has received permission to unlock lock 34 and lock 31, he can return to the lobby. Since the guest X has not received permission to release the lock 32 and the lock 36, the guest X cannot move to the room B as it is.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an operation related to the second embodiment, and FIG. 10 is an explanation showing the state of the table. Since the visiting partner P can release the lock 32, first, the visiting partner P holds the entrance permit 7 over the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 32 in order to release the lock 32. Control means (not shown) of the entrance / exit management system 3 reads the entrance permit ID 101 of the visited party P from the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 32 (S401). The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 refers to the entrance permit ID list of the lock 32 in the release permission table 43 shown in FIG. 10C (S402), and checks whether there is an entrance permit ID 101 (S403). If there is no entrance permit ID 101, the electronic lock is not released (S404).

  Since the visiting partner P is an employee, the entry permit ID 101 exists in the entry permit ID list of the lock 32, so the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 releases the electronic lock of the lock 32. At the same time, the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 accesses the database 4 and stores the release history in the release history table 47 shown in FIG. 10 (g) (S405). The release history table 47 as a release history storage unit stores the entry permit ID for which the electronic lock is released and the release date and time as a history for each electronic lock. In this case, the recorded contents are the lock 32 of the electronic lock ID, the release date and time of 0:00, 10 am and the admission permit ID 101.

  Immediately thereafter, the guest X holds his / her admission permit 7 over the admission permit key reading device 2 of the lock 32. The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 reads the entrance permit ID 300 of the guest X from the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 32 (S406). The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 refers to the entrance permit ID list of the lock 32 in the release permission table 43 (S407) and checks whether there is an entrance permit ID 300 (S408). If there is the entrance permit ID 300, the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 releases the electronic lock, and simultaneously stores the release history in the release history table 47 (S409).

  Since the guest X is not permitted to release the lock 32, the entrance permit ID 300 does not exist. Therefore, the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 inquires of the reception management system 5 who is the entrance permit ID 300 (S410). The control means (not shown) of the reception management system 5 that has received the inquiry detects the visiting partner P of the entrance permit ID 300 from the guest table 44 shown in FIG. 10D, and together with the entrance permit ID 101 of the visited partner P, Answer to the entrance / exit management system 3.

  The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 checks whether the answer from the reception management system 5 has a visit destination in the guest X (S411), and if there is no visit destination, does not release the electronic lock (S412). When the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 confirms that the guest X is a guest of the visiting partner P (S413), the control means of the lock 32 is checked with reference to the release history table 47 (S414). ). Then, it is checked whether or not the entrance permit 300 for the guest X is read within a certain time, for example, within 10 seconds from the date and time when the entrance permit ID 101 of the visited party P is released (S415). If the reading is performed after 10 seconds or longer, the electronic lock 32 is not released (S416).

  If the reading is within 10 seconds, the guest X admission permit ID 300 is allowed to release the lock 32, and at the same time, the release history is stored in the release history table 47 (S417). For example, the record of the admission permit ID 101 of the visiting partner P is 10:00 am and 10 seconds of XX month and the reading of the admission permit ID 300 of the guest X is 1 0:00 am and 15 seconds of MON Monday and Sunday. If there is, it is determined that it is within 10 seconds. Further, the control means (not shown) of the entrance / exit management system 3 accesses the database 4 and adds the entrance permit ID 300 to the entrance permit ID list of the lock 32 of the release permission table 43.

  The operation for the lock 32 has been described above. Similarly, for the operation for the lock 36, release permission is given to the guest X, and the release history is stored in the release history table 47. Thus, the guest X can enter the room B, and thereafter, the guest X is given permission to release the lock 31, the lock 32, the lock 34, and the lock 36. In the current position management table 45, both the visited party P and the guest X are changed to the position information e6.

  In the above description of the second embodiment, the case where there is one guest X has been described, but it is possible even when there are a plurality of guests. That is, in step 415, after permission to cancel the visiting partner P, if the entrance permit IDs of a plurality of guests are read within a predetermined time, for example, within 10 seconds, the entrance permit IDs 300 and 301 of the plurality of guests X1 and X2 are locked. The release history can be stored in the release history table 47 at the same time.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, the release history table 47 for storing the personal ID information and the release time history for releasing the gate is provided, and the gate is set based on the history content of the release history table 47. Since the entrance permission ID of the guest X that can be released is added, the gate 10 to be released can be changed as the destination of the guest X changes as necessary. Accordingly, by performing a simple operation, it is possible to expand the range of permission for canceling the admission permit issued at the reception, so there is no need to go to the reception again and perform reissue or change procedures. In addition, even if there are multiple guests, you can expand the release permission range with a simple operation by simply reading the admission permit 7 continuously after the person you are visiting. The efficiency of the certificate issuance procedure is greatly improved.

<Third Embodiment>
Next, a third embodiment will be described. In the second embodiment, it has been described that the release range permitted to the guest X can be expanded when moving to another place after a meeting in the conference room 2, but the third embodiment Then, the release range permitted to the guest X can be reduced.

  The configuration of the gate system according to the third embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. After the visited partner P and the guest X move to the room B, the meeting place is returned to the conference room 2 again, and the visited partner P and the guest X move to the conference room 2 will be described. The moving path from the room B to the conference room 2 is the reverse of the broken arrow in FIG. 2, and the release of the lock 36, the lock 32, the lock 31 and the lock 34 in the middle is permitted. Here, although the meeting place is the conference room 2, the guest X remains permitted to release the lock 36 and the lock 32, and the guest X can freely move to the room B. Therefore, it is necessary to cancel the permission to release the lock 36 and the lock 32 of the guest X.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing an operation related to the third embodiment. FIG. 12 is an explanatory diagram showing the state of the table. First, the visiting partner P holds his / her entrance permit 7 over the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 36 in order to release the lock 36. The control means (not shown) of the entrance / exit management system 3 reads the entrance permit ID 101 of the visited party P from the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 36 (S501). The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 refers to the entrance permit ID list of the lock 36 in the release permission table 43 shown in FIG. 12C (S502), and checks whether there is an entrance permit ID 101 (S503). If there is no admission permit ID 101, the electronic lock is not released (S504). Since the visiting partner P is an employee, the entrance permit ID 101 exists in the entrance permit ID list of the lock 36, so the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 releases the electronic lock of the lock 36. At the same time, the entrance / exit management system 3 accesses the database 4 and stores the release history in the release history table 47 shown in FIG. 12G (S505). The recorded contents are the lock 32 of the electronic lock ID, the release date and time of ** month * day, 10:00:10 am, and the admission permit ID 101.

  Thereafter, the visited party P repeats the same operation once more. That is, the user enters his / her admission permit 7 over the admission permit key reading device 2 of the lock 36. The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 reads the entrance permit ID 101 of the visited party P from the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 36 (S506). The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 refers to the entrance permit ID list of the lock 36 in the release permission table 43 (S507) and checks whether there is an entrance permit ID 101 (S508). If there is no entrance permit ID 101, the electronic lock is not released (S509). Since the visiting partner P is an employee, the entrance permit ID 101 exists in the entrance permit ID list of the lock 36, so the entrance / exit management system 3 confirms that the same entrance permit ID 101 is read twice here. And recording (S510).

  Immediately thereafter, the guest X holds his / her admission permit 7 over the admission permit key reading device 2 of the lock 36. The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 reads the entrance permit ID 300 of the guest X from the entrance permit key reading device 2 of the lock 36 (S511). Since the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 is immediately after double reading in step 510, the reception permit management system 5 is inquired of which guest the entrance permit ID 300 does not refer to the release permission table 43. (S512). Upon receipt of the inquiry, the reception management system 5 detects the visiting partner P of the entrance permit ID 300 from the guest table 44 shown in FIG. 12D, and together with the entrance permit ID 101 of the visiting partner P, the entrance / exit management system. Answer 3

  The control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 checks whether the answer from the reception management system 5 has a visit destination for the guest X (S513), and if there is no visit destination, performs a separately defined process (S514). When the control means of the entrance / exit management system 3 confirms that the guest X is a guest of the visited party P (S515), the release history table 47 is referred to and the release of the lock 32 is confirmed with respect to time (S515). S516). Then, it is checked whether or not the entrance permit 300 of the guest X has been read by the visited party P within a certain time, for example, within 10 seconds from the cancellation date / time of double reading of the entrance permit ID 101 (S517). If the reading is performed after 10 seconds or more have elapsed, the electronic lock 36 is released, and at the same time, the release history is simply stored in the release history table 47 (S518).

  On the other hand, if the reading is within 10 seconds, the guest X admission permit ID 300 is allowed to release the lock 36, and at the same time, the release history is stored in the release history table 47 (S519). Further, the control means (not shown) of the entrance / exit management system 3 accesses the database 4 and deletes the entrance permit ID 300 from the entrance permit ID list of the lock 36 of the release permission table 43.

  The above is the operation for the lock 36, but the operation for the lock 32 is similarly deleted from the release permission table for the entrance X ID 300 of the guest X. Thus, guest X cannot enter room B. Thereafter, the guest X is given permission to release the lock 31 and the lock 34. In the current position management table 45, both the visited party P and the guest X are changed to the position information g2.

  In the description of the third embodiment, the case where there is one guest X has been described, but it is possible even when there are a plurality of guests. That is, in step 517, after the permission of release of the visiting partner P is obtained, if the entrance permit IDs of a plurality of guests are read within a predetermined time, for example, within 10 seconds, the entrance permit IDs 300 and 301 of the plurality of guests X1 and X2 are locked. The cancellation history can be deleted, and at the same time, the cancellation history can be stored in the cancellation history table 47.

  As described above, according to the third embodiment, there is provided a release history table 47 for storing the personal ID information and release time as a history, and double reading of the visited party in the release history table 47 is provided. Since the entrance permission ID of the guest X that can release the gate is deleted based on the history content of the guest X, the gate 10 to be released can be changed as the destination of the guest X changes as necessary. . Therefore, by performing a simple operation, it is possible to reduce the permission range for canceling the admission permit issued at the reception, so there is no need to go to the reception again and perform reissue or change procedures. Even if there are multiple guests, you can reduce the range of permission to release by simple operations by simply reading the admission permit 7 following the person you are visiting. The efficiency of the certificate issuance procedure is greatly improved.

  In the description of the first to third embodiments, it has been described that the route table 42 has a route from the lobby where the reception is received to the destination, and the electronic lock ID is determined in advance. Not exclusively. That is, a route or an electronic lock ID may be searched each time based on information on a lobby as a departure place and a destination as a destination.

  Further, in the description of the first to third embodiments, the storage method of the release permission table 43 is to store the entrance permit ID that permits the release of the electronic lock 1 mainly using the electronic lock ID. However, it is not limited to this. That is, on the contrary, the electronic lock ID which can cancel the admission permit ID may be stored mainly using the admission permit ID. Further, in this case, an electronic lock ID corresponding to the entrance permit ID may be stored in the entrance permit 7.
