Description

  The present invention relates to an equipment operation time adjustment device and program, and more particularly to adjustment of operation time when a plurality of users request extension of equipment operation time.

  In recent years, in tenant buildings, a service has been provided that enables tenant building facilities to be connected to a tenant server installed exclusively for tenant buildings within the building, enabling environment settings, etc. for tenants. ing. One of the services is the temperature setting of the air conditioner installed in the tenant and the core from the personal computer (PC) in the tenant that can be connected to the tenant server without the tenant resident having to apply to the building management department. There is a service that allows you to set up overtime driving.

  In the case of setting the extended operation of the air conditioner from the tenant PC, there is a restriction that priority is given to the subsequent win. For example, when tenant resident A sets an extended operation from 19:00 to 23:00, and tenant resident B sets an extended operation from 18:00 to 22:00, the later set from 18:00 to 22:00 is effective. It is set and invalidated from 19:00 to 23:00 set earlier. In order to enable 19:00 to 23:00, tenant resident A needs to set extended operation again from 19:00 to 23:00. Now disabled.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a tenant building system constructed in a tenant building including an embodiment of an equipment operation time adjusting device according to the present invention. In the present embodiment, air conditioning equipment will be described as an example of equipment that is subject to adjustment of the extended operation period. The tenant building system in the present embodiment has a building monitoring system 1, an entrance / exit management system 2, a terminal 3, and a tenant server 10, each connected to a LAN 4.

  The building monitoring system 1 is a system that monitors and manages air conditioning equipment installed in each tenant. In FIG. 1, an air conditioner 6 installed in a room 5 rented by a tenant is shown as an air conditioner. In addition, since the same equipment is installed in each room 5, only one room 5 is shown in FIG. 1 for convenience. The building monitoring system 1 includes a building monitoring server, a controller that connects the air conditioner 6, and the like, but a configuration that is not used in the description of the present embodiment is included in one block. The configuration of the building monitoring system 1 may be the same as before.

  The entrance / exit management system 2 is a system for managing entrance / exit of tenant residents from a tenant building and entrance / exit from a room 5 rented by each tenant. A card reader 7 is installed at the entrance and exit of the tenant building and the entrance and exit of each room 5, and each tenant resident makes the card reader 7 read the IC card carried by each tenant when passing through the entrance and exit. Information that can identify each tenant resident, for example, an employee ID, is recorded on the IC card. The tenant resident can read the employee ID by holding the IC card over the card reader 7, thereby controlling entry / exit. System 2 identifies tenant residents entering and leaving. Visitors to the tenant building are given an IC card when entering the building, and entry / exit is managed. In the present embodiment, a tenant building user will be described as a tenant resident unless otherwise specified. Although the entrance / exit management system 2 is configured by a controller or the like that connects the entrance / exit management server and the card reader 7, a configuration that is not used in the description of the present embodiment is included in one block. The configuration of the entrance / exit management system 2 may be the same as before.

  The terminal 3 is an information terminal device that can use the service provided by the tenant server 10 and can be realized by a general-purpose PC. In FIG. 1, only one terminal 3 is illustrated for convenience and shared by the tenant resident. For example, each tenant PC installed in the tenant resident's seat can access the tenant server 10. You may comprise so that it can access.

  FIG. 2 is a hardware configuration diagram of a server computer forming the tenant server 10 according to the present embodiment. The server computer that forms the tenant server 10 in the present embodiment can be realized by a general-purpose hardware configuration that has existed in the past. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the computer connects the CPU 21, ROM 22, RAM 23, hard disk drive (HDD) 24, mouse 25 and keyboard 26 provided as input means, and display 27 provided as a display device. An input / output controller 28 and a network controller 29 provided as communication means are connected to an internal bus 30.

  Returning to FIG. 1, the tenant server 10 according to the present embodiment includes an extension request receiving unit 11, an entrance / exit information acquiring unit 12, a schedule setting unit 13, an extended driving instruction unit 14, an extended driving period storage unit 15, and a personal information storage unit. 16 and an extended operation schedule storage unit 17. The extension request receiving unit 11 receives an operation time extension request for the air conditioner 6 transmitted from the terminal 3 in response to an input operation by a tenant resident, and registers the request in the extended operation period storage unit 15. The entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 is provided as an entrance / exit information acquisition unit, and acquires entrance / exit information of tenant residents from the room 5. The entry / exit information includes an employee ID that identifies the entry / exit, information that identifies the room 5 that has entered / exited, and information that indicates entry / exit. The schedule setting unit 13 determines an extended operation schedule for extending the air conditioner 6 in response to the operation time extension request. The synthesizing unit 131 included in the schedule setting unit 13 is provided as an operation period synthesizing unit, and is specified in each operation time extension request for the air conditioner 6 corresponding to the room 5 from a plurality of tenant residents in the same room 5. By combining the extended operation periods, an extended operation schedule of the air conditioner 6 is created and registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17. In addition, the update unit 132 is provided as an update unit, and when the entrance / exit information acquired by the entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 is entrance / exit information indicating exit from the room 5 of the tenant resident who requested the extension of driving time, The extended operation schedule is updated by excluding the extended operation period designated by the tenant resident who has left the room 5 from the extended operation schedule stored in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17. The extended operation instruction unit 14 sends an extended operation schedule stored in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17 to the building monitoring system 1 to give an instruction to extend the operation of the air conditioner 6.

  Each component 11 to 14 in the tenant server 10 is realized by a cooperative operation of a computer that forms the tenant server 10 and a program that operates on the CPU 21 mounted on the computer. The storage units 15 to 17 are realized by the HDD 24 mounted on the tenant server 10. Alternatively, the RAM 23 or an external storage means may be used via a network.

  Further, the program used in this embodiment can be provided not only by communication means but also by storing it in a computer-readable recording medium such as a CD-ROM or USB memory. The program provided from the communication means or the recording medium is installed in the computer, and various processes are realized by the CPU of the computer sequentially executing the program.

  Next, the process for creating the extended operation schedule in the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. Since each room in the tenant building may be processed in the same manner, in the present embodiment, the contents of the process will be described with a focus on one room 5. Here, for convenience of explanation, as an environment of the room 5, as illustrated in FIG. 4, it is assumed that the seats 8 of four tenant residents named users A to D are in the room 5.

  First, when the user A wishes to extend the operation of the air conditioner 6 after the end of the core time, the user A accesses the tenant server 10 by performing a predetermined operation from the terminal 3, and the air conditioning operation extension request screen as illustrated in FIG. Is displayed. This may be displayed by a browser after logging in with his login ID (employee ID). User A inputs the extension date and extension time from this screen. The extended date may be displayed with the current date as a default value. In the extension time, each time indicating the start and end of the operation time to be extended outside the core time is input. When the setting button is clicked and selected after inputting the predetermined item, the terminal 3 transmits to the tenant server 10 the operation time extension request information including the employee ID, the extension date, and the extension operation period input at the time of login. At this time, identification information identifying the tenant or room 5 that requested the extended operation is added and transmitted.

  When the extension request accepting unit 11 in the tenant server 10 acquires the operation time extension request information transmitted from the terminal 3 (step 101), it registers it in the extended operation period storage unit 15.

  After the user A inputs as in the above example, if the other users B and C also request to extend the operation time, the operation time extension request information corresponding to those requests is stored in the extended operation period storage unit 15. be registered. Here, for example, it is assumed that user A requests from 18:00 to 21:00, user B requests from 19:00 to 22:00, and user C requests from 20:00 to 23:00.

  When recognizing that the operation time extension request information is registered in the extended operation period storage unit 15, the synthesizing unit 131 in the schedule setting unit reads out the registered operation time extension request information and synthesizes it if necessary, thereby extending the operation schedule. Is registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17 (step 102).

  First, when the operation time extension request information of the user A is registered for the first time, since there is no target to be combined, an extended operation schedule is created with that information. If the said example is followed, the synthetic | combination part 131 will create an extended driving | running schedule for 18:00 to 21:00 by the specification of the user A as an extended driving | operation period. Subsequently, when the operation time extension request information of the user B is registered, the synthesis unit 131 synthesizes 18:00 to 21:00 according to the designation of the user A and 19:00 to 22:00 according to the designation of the user B, and extends the driving. An extended operation schedule is created for the period from 18:00 to 22:00 and registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17. In this case, the extended operation schedule is overwritten and saved.

  Subsequently, when the operation time extension request information of the user C is registered, the synthesizing unit 131 performs the operation from 18:00 to 21:00 according to the designation of the user A, 19:00 to 22:00 according to the designation of the user B, and 20 according to the designation of the user C. The extended operation schedule is created with the extended operation period of 18:00 to 23:00, and is registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17. In this case, the extended operation schedule is overwritten and saved. The combining unit 131 may combine the extended operation period read from the extended operation schedule storage unit 17 with the extended operation period specified by the user C.

  In the present embodiment, it has been described that the extended operation period of the air conditioner 6 in the room 5 is updated each time the operation time extension request information is registered in the extended operation period storage unit 15. When the period acceptance deadline is set, the combining unit 131 may perform combining only once after the time limit is reached.

  Subsequently, the extended operation of the air conditioner 6 is started according to the extended operation schedule. Thereafter, when the extended operation period ends (Y in step 103), the extended operation instruction unit 14 notifies the building monitoring system 1 of the end of the extended operation and stops the operation of the air conditioner 6, but until then, (N in step 103), the following processing is repeatedly executed.

  The entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 acquires entrance / exit information indicating the entrance / exit from the entrance / exit management system 2 according to the entrance / exit of the tenant resident in the room 5 from the entrance / exit management system 2. It is assumed that all tenant residents who have requested extended operation (hereinafter also referred to as “requesters”) are in room 5 at the start of extended operation.

  When the entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 acquires entrance / exit information from the entrance / exit management system 2 (Y in step 104), the schedule setting unit 13 refers to the extended operation period storage unit 15 and the entrance / exit information is stored in the room. If it is not the entry / exit information indicating that the requester 5 has left the room (N in Step 105), the process returns to Step 103. On the other hand, when the entrance / exit information acquired from the entrance / exit management system 2 is entrance / exit information indicating the requester's exit (Y in Step 105), the update unit 132 in the schedule setting unit 13 stores the extended operation schedule storage unit 17. The registered extended driving schedule is read, and the extended driving schedule is updated by excluding the extended driving period specified in the driving time extension request information from the requester from the extended driving schedule (step 107). Step 106 will be described later.

  For example, according to the above example, when the acquired entrance / exit information is information indicating the exit of the user C, the update unit 132 operates the extended operation period 20:00 to 23 specified by the user C from the extended operation period storage unit 15. The time is read, the extended operation period 18:00 to 23:00 designated in the extended operation schedule is read, and the extended operation period specified by the user C from the scheduled extended operation period 18:00 to 23:00 is 20:00 By excluding ~ 23: 00, the extended operation schedule is updated to 20: 00 ~ 22: 00. In addition, it is not excluded from the extended operation schedule because the extended operation period specified by the other users A and B who have not left the room is from 20:00 to 22:00 out of the extended operation period 20:00 to 23:00 specified by the user C. .

  According to the present embodiment, the extended operation period 21 designated only by the requester by leaving the room 5 despite the extended operation of the air conditioner 6 in the room 5 as described above. By excluding hours to 22:00 from the extended operation schedule created by the synthesis, an unnecessary increase in power consumption in the air conditioner 6 can be suppressed.

  By the way, it may be considered that the requester leaves the room for a short period of time for some reason, for example, due to errand to another room, use of a restroom, or the like. Therefore, even if it is confirmed that the requester has left the room, the requester's extended operation request may not be excluded from the extended operation schedule as long as entry into the room can be confirmed within a preset allowable time. However, the convenience of the requester varies from a short time to a time that is not so short, and setting the allowable time may not be easy. Therefore, the extended operation time requested by the requester may not be invalidated until confirmation of the requester's exit from the tenant building. That is, even when the entrance / exit information acquired by the entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 from the entrance / exit management system 2 is entrance / exit information indicating exit from the room 5 (Y in Step 105), the entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 If entry / exit information indicating that the requester has left the tenant building has not been acquired and the requester has not been confirmed to exit (N in step 106), the extended operation period by the requester May not be excluded from the extended driving schedule.

  Further, in an actual office, it is not a simple arrangement of seats as illustrated in FIG. 4, but it is often the case that a layout is formed by arranging seats for each department as illustrated in FIG. 6. In the case of an extended operation, it can be easily assumed that someone belonging to the department requests the extended operation on behalf. Therefore, it is preferable to perform processing so as to cope with such a case.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a data configuration example of personal information stored in the personal information storage unit 16 in the present embodiment. In the personal information, a seating area indicating an area where the seat of the tenant resident is provided is set in the employee ID for identifying each tenant resident. This area is formed by dividing the room 5 into a plurality of areas as illustrated in FIG. 6, and each area includes seats of the same department arranged in the room 5 in close proximity. Note that personal information may include information such as name, but is omitted because it is not used in the description of the present embodiment.

  The extended operation schedule creation process in this case is slightly different in the processing content of step 107 in FIG. That is, when the requester is confirmed to leave the room (Y in Step 105), the updating unit 132 sets the personal information storage unit 16 instead of immediately excluding the extended driving period by the requester from the extended driving schedule. If at least one tenant resident who has a seat in the same area as the requester is in the room, referring to the entrance / exit information acquired so far, The extended operation period by the requester is not excluded from the extended operation schedule.

  As mentioned above, it can be easily assumed that someone in the department (area) requests extended driving on behalf of the department, but it is possible to cope with such a case by referring to the seated area included in the personal information. It is.

  The extended operation instruction unit 14 instructs the building monitoring system 1 to extend the operation of the air conditioner 6 installed in the room 5 according to the extended operation schedule which is created as described above and can be appropriately updated according to the entrance / exit information. To do.

  According to the present embodiment, as described above, since the extended operation schedule requested by the requester is excluded from the extended operation schedule created by composition as described above, the requester leaves the room, etc. The extended operation period of the air conditioner 6 can be adjusted from the viewpoints of both energy saving and utilization.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
In the first embodiment, the extended operation period set in the extended operation schedule is adjusted by acquiring the entrance / exit information from the entrance / exit management system 2. The present embodiment is characterized in that sensor information from the temperature sensor 9 installed in each room 5 is acquired and the extended operation period set in the extended operation schedule is adjusted.

  FIG. 8 is a block configuration diagram showing the tenant building system in the present embodiment, and corresponds to FIG. 1 in the first embodiment. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same component and description is abbreviate | omitted suitably. A temperature sensor 9 for measuring room temperature is installed in the room 5, and the building monitoring system 1 transmits sensor information indicating the room temperature measured by the temperature sensor 9 to the tenant server 10. The tenant server 10 in the present embodiment has a sensor information acquisition unit 18 instead of the entrance / exit information acquisition unit 12 in the first embodiment. The sensor information acquisition unit 18 is provided as temperature information acquisition means, and in the case where one or a plurality of tenant occupant seats are installed in each area formed by dividing the room 5 into a plurality of rooms, the room temperature in each area Is obtained. Although the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the entrance / exit management system 2 is not used, other configurations and hardware configurations may be the same as those of the first embodiment. The sensor information acquisition unit 18 is realized by a cooperative operation of a computer that forms the tenant server 10 and a program that operates on the CPU 21 mounted on the computer.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of the layout of the room 5 when the present embodiment is applied. The room 5 is divided into a plurality of areas, in this embodiment areas A to D, and a tenant occupant's seat 8 is provided in each area. In the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, an example is shown in which one seat is provided in each area, but the present invention is also applicable to the case where a plurality of seats are provided in each area as in FIG. 6 in the first embodiment. Is possible.

  Next, the process for creating an extended operation schedule in the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. The same processes as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same step numbers, and description thereof is omitted as appropriate.

  First, in the present embodiment, the processing up to the point where the synthesizing unit 131 creates the extended operation schedule may be the same as in the first embodiment (steps 101 and 102). Then, the following processing is repeatedly executed until the extended operation period ends (Y in step 103).

  Each of the temperature sensors 9A to 9D shown in FIG. 9 is installed in the vicinity of the air inlet provided for each area, and the measured temperature at the place is set to the room temperature of the corresponding area. The building monitoring system 1 periodically transmits sensor information indicating the room temperature obtained by the temperature sensors 9 </ b> A to 9 </ b> D to the tenant server 10. When the sensor information acquisition unit 18 acquires the sensor information transmitted from the building monitoring system 1 (step 201), the schedule setting unit 13 compares it with a threshold value set in advance as a predetermined condition. If the cooling operation is currently performed, the schedule setting unit 13 compares each room temperature measured by each temperature sensor 9A to 9D with a threshold value, and identifies an area where the room temperature is equal to or less than the threshold value (step 202). ). If there is no area where the room temperature is less than or equal to the threshold (N in step 203), the process returns to step 103.

  When there is an area where the room temperature is equal to or less than the threshold (Y in Step 203), the schedule setting unit 13 sets the operation time extension request information and the personal information storage unit 16 registered in the extended operation period storage unit 15. Referring to the seating area of each tenant resident, whether or not an extended driving is requested from a tenant resident who has a seat in the area is confirmed. If there is no tenant resident (requester) who has requested extended operation in the area (N in step 204), the process returns to step 103.

  On the other hand, when the requester exists in the area (Y in Step 204), the updating unit 132 reads the extended operation schedule registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17, and from the extended operation schedule, from the requester. The extended operation schedule is updated by excluding the extended operation period specified in the operation time extension request information (step 205).

  In the present embodiment, if the cooling operation is performed, a predetermined condition that the room temperature exceeds the threshold is set in advance, and the updating unit 132 operates the air conditioner 6 during the extended operation period. If the temperature falls below a certain value (threshold) during the period, that is, if the predetermined condition is not satisfied, the cooling operation is stopped for the area as if the cooling effect has been sufficiently exerted. By excluding the extended operation request from the requester who is present, the increase in power consumption due to the extended operation of the air conditioner 6 is suppressed.

  In the above description, the case of the cooling operation is taken as an example. However, the same applies to the heating operation. May be. In the case of heating operation, in step 202, an area where the room temperature is equal to or higher than the threshold value is specified.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the first embodiment, the entry / exit information is referred to, and in the second embodiment, the sensor information is referred to dynamically update the extended operation schedule created by combining the extended operation periods. The present embodiment is characterized in that the rank of the tenant resident included in the personal information is referred to statically, that is, the extended driving schedule is adjusted in advance.

  FIG. 11 is a block configuration diagram showing the tenant building system in the present embodiment, and is a diagram corresponding to FIG. 1 in the first embodiment. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same component and description is abbreviate | omitted suitably. In the present embodiment, since the extended operation schedule is determined mainly based on the personal information setting, there is no configuration to be newly added.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a data configuration example of personal information stored in the personal information storage unit 16 in the present embodiment. In the personal information, an employee ID that identifies each tenant resident is set in advance with a seating area indicating an area where the seat of the tenant resident is provided, and the title and rank of the tenant resident. The rank is priority information indicating a priority for each tenant resident to use the air conditioner 6. In the present embodiment, priority is given at a level corresponding to the position. The highest priority was set for visitors.

  Next, the process for creating an extended operation schedule in the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. The same processes as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same step numbers, and description thereof is omitted as appropriate.

  First, in the present embodiment, the processing up to the point where the synthesizing unit 131 creates the extended operation schedule may be the same as in the first embodiment (steps 101 and 102). However, it is not yet registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17.

  The schedule setting unit 13 confirms the extended operation period of the air conditioner 6 indicated by the extended operation schedule, and if the operation time length indicated by the extended operation period is equal to or less than a preset operation time (threshold) (Y in step 301). ) The air conditioner 6 is registered in the extended operation schedule storage unit 17 so as to be controlled in accordance with the extended operation schedule generated by the synthesis.

  On the other hand, when the driving time length indicated by the extended driving period exceeds the threshold (N in step 301), the update unit 132 functioning as the priority information acquisition unit refers to the extended driving period storage unit 15 to perform the extended driving. The requested tenant resident (requester) is specified, and the rank of the specified tenant resident is acquired from the personal information storage unit 16 (step 302). And the update part 132 excludes the extended driving | running period designated by the requester with the lowest rank among requesters from an extended driving schedule (step 303).

  Even if the extended operation period is excluded, if the operation time indicated by the extended operation schedule exceeds the threshold, the extended operation period designated by the tenant resident with the next lowest rank is excluded (step 303). In this way, the update unit 132 sequentially excludes from the extended operation schedule from the extended operation period designated by the requester having the lowest priority among the requesters, so that the extended operation schedule created by the synthesis is a predetermined one. Update so that the extended operation time is not exceeded.

  According to the present embodiment, as described above, since the extended operation period requested by the requester with a lower rank is sequentially excluded from the extended operation schedule created by the synthesis, energy saving and use of the air conditioner 6 are achieved. It is possible to adjust the extended operation period of the air conditioner 6 from both viewpoints.

  In the present embodiment, the extended operation schedule is statically adjusted. However, after adjustment is made so that the extended operation schedule does not exceed the threshold, if the operation time extension request information is transmitted later, the request is transmitted. If the extended operation schedule is combined with the extended operation schedule and the extended operation schedule exceeds the threshold, the requester with the lowest rank among the requesters is specified as above. The extended operation period may be excluded from the extended operation schedule.

  In each of the above embodiments, the extended driving period indicated by the extended driving schedule is adjusted based on the parameters of the entrance / exit information, the sensor information, and the tenant resident rank, but the processing described in each of the embodiments is performed. You may implement it combining suitably according to needs.

  Further, in each of the above embodiments, the room 5 provided in the tenant building as a space has been described as an example of a tenant resident of a tenant renting the room 5 as a user of the space. You may apply other than a building system.
