The first admission information and the second admission information are separately transmitted to the visitor PC terminal 3 and the visitor mobile terminal 5 related to the e-mail address, the mobile phone number, and the like (S3).

Next, the visitor receives the first admission information and the second admission information from the visitor reception management device 21 via the visitor PC terminal 3 and the visitor mobile terminal 5, and the visitor PC terminal In the case of 3, the visitor uses a printing device (not shown) to print the first admission information consisting of a one-dimensional code or a two-dimensional code.
Further, the visitor mobile terminal 5 can display the first admission information transmitted from the admission information transmission unit 21c or transferred from the visitor PC terminal 3 on the display unit (not shown) at the time of visit. (S4).

Visitors head to the entrance such as the lobby in front of the entrance restricted area 7 on the receiving side before and after the date and time specified in advance by the host in the visit date and time identification information. As shown in FIG. 2, a reception terminal device 25 is installed in front of the entrance to the restricted entrance area 7.

The visitor operates the reception terminal device 25 and, in accordance with the instruction, causes the reading unit 25a to print the first admission information and read the one brought by the visitor, or the visitor's mobile phone carried by the visitor. The terminal 5 is made to display the first admission information and read the display. Similarly, the visitor operates the reception terminal device 25 and inputs the second admission information via the input unit 25b according to the instruction (S5).

The reception terminal device 25 transmits both the first admission information and the second admission information input via the reading unit 25a and the input unit 25b to the admission information activation unit 21d (S6).

Next, the admission information activation unit 21d uniquely responds to the first admission information and the second admission information transmitted from the reception terminal device 25 in light of the visit information database 22a (S7). It is confirmed whether the visitor identification information and the visit date / time specific information related thereto exist, and if the specific information exists, the visitor identification information is based on the second admission information associated with the visit date / time specific information. The first admission information associated with is validated only at a predetermined date and time so that it can be used as an admission card (S8).

That is, the admission information activation unit 21d uniquely responds to the received first admission information and the second admission information in light of the visit information database 22a (S7) and the visitor identification information. Check if there is related visit date / time specific information, and if such specific information exists, that is, make an inquiry to the visit information database 22a using the first admission information and the second admission information as keys, and apply. If the visitor identification information associated with the first admission information and the visit date / time identification information associated with the second admission information exist, it matches the scheduled visitor, date / time, and location. As a result, the first admission information is activated only in a predetermined date and time so that it can be used as an admission card, and the first admission information is valid as an admission card, and the activated date and time. The band is stored in the visit information database 22a (S8).

On the other hand, the admission information activation unit 21d uniquely responds to the received first admission information and the second admission information in light of the visit information database 22a (S7), and the visitor identification information thereof. It is confirmed whether the visit date / time specific information related to is present, and if the specific information does not exist, the visit date / time specific information associated with the second admission information and the visit date / time specific information associated with the first admission information are associated with the first admission information. Since the visitor identification information does not match the scheduled visitor and date and time, we refused to validate the first admission information, did not allow the use of the first admission information as an admission card, and refused to validate it. Information is stored in the visit information database 22a (S9).

In addition, for example, if the admission to the restricted admission area 7 is from 14:00 to 16:00 on the day of the year △ month × day, the visitor is asked to enter the reception terminal device 25 at 13:00 on the same day. When the 1st admission information and the 2nd admission information are input, it is possible to activate the 1st admission information at 14:00 and use it as an admission card.

Alternatively, for example, the reception terminal device 25 can input the first admission information and the second admission information from a predetermined time before the admission start time, such as 30 minutes before, and the visitor's second. It is also possible to reject the action of validating the admission information of 1.

That is, if the visitor operates the reception terminal device 25 at 13:00 on the same day, the operation time is too early and the visitor's first admission information activation operation is refused, and the visit is made after 13:30. The operation of the person is permitted, the first admission information and the second admission information can be input in advance, and at 14:00, the admission information activation unit 21d activates the first admission information. It is also possible to use it as an admission card, and these settings can be freely made from the visitor reception management device 21 and the reception side input terminal 23.

In addition, the admission information activation unit 21d has confirmed that the first admission information has been activated on the touch panel display 25d, which is the display unit of the reception terminal device 25, and can be used as an admission card at a predetermined date and time. It can be displayed (S8). Similarly, even if the use of the first admission information as an admission card is not permitted, it can be displayed to that effect (S9)).

The visitor heads to the admission device 26 to enter the restricted admission area 7 after the time when the first admission information is activated as an admission card.

As shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5, the visitor causes the reading unit 26a of the admission permit device 26 to read the first admission information, and the admission device 26 causes the admission determination unit 21e to read the first admission information. Transmit (S10). In this case, the visitor causes the reading unit 26a to print the first admission information and read the one brought, or the visitor's mobile terminal 5 possesses the first admission information. Let them display and read the display.

The admission determination unit 21e is based on the first admission information transmitted from the admission device 26, and in light of the visit information database 22a (S11), the first admission information is activated and the first admission information is activated. If the admission information of 1 matches a predetermined time zone or place where the admission information is activated, a signal permitting the visitor to enter is transmitted to the admission permission device 26, and the admission permission signal is sent to the visit information database 22a. (S12), the admission device 26 opens the flapper (door), which is the admission restricting means 26b for restricting the admission of the visitor, to release the admission restriction and allow the visitor to enter. (S13).

Further, after releasing the flapper which is the admission restricting means 26b, the admission permit device 26 confirms the passage of the visitor with sensors (not shown) or the like, closes the flapper which is the admission restricting means 26b again, and causes other visitors. Admission is restricted (S14).

On the other hand, the admission determination unit 21e compares the first admission information transmitted from the admission device 26 with the visit information database 22a (S11), and the first admission information has not yet been activated. In some cases, or if the first admission information does not match the activated date and time or location, a signal disallowing the visitor's admission is sent to the admission device 26 to provide the visit information. The entry permission device 26, which stores the transmission information of the entry disapproval signal in the database 22a (S15), is in a closed state without opening the flapper (door), which is the entry restriction means 26b that restricts the entry of visitors. Maintain admission restrictions to prevent visitors from entering (S16).

[When returning]
At the time of revisit, the recipient has already registered the visitor identification information in the visit information database 22a. Therefore, when making a visit reservation by the receiving side input terminal 23, the acceptor uses the already registered visitor identification information. It is possible to select and omit the input of detailed visitor identification information.

Further, the first admission information sent to the visitor PC terminal 3 and the visitor mobile terminal 5 by the admission information creation unit 21b and the admission information transmission unit 21c is already registered in the visit information database 22a. Since it is the same as the previous visitor identification information, the first admission information already printed last time and the first admission information stored from the previous time can be reused so that it can be displayed on the visitor mobile terminal 5. Therefore, it is not necessary to print the first admission information again.

[Second Embodiment]
The outline of the visitor entrance management system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a configuration according to a second embodiment of the visitor admission management system of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the admission certificate issuing device and the admission permission device shown in FIG. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description of the same parts will be omitted.

In the admission management system 30 of the second embodiment of the present invention, the first embodiment causes the visitor to read the first admission information by the reading unit 25a of the reception terminal device 25, subject to activation. Although it was used as an admission card as it is, the only difference is that the reception terminal device is an admission card issuing device 35 that issues an admission card consisting of a reusable IC card or a rewrite card. The only difference is that the processing of is not validating the first admission information and using it as an admission card, but issuing an admission card in addition to the first admission information.

[Configuration and processing of admission card issuing device]
The configuration and function of the admission card issuing device 35 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the admission certificate issuing device 35 is installed in front of the restricted admission area 7, and has a first admission information reading unit 35a and a second admission information. It has an input unit 35b and an admission card issuing unit 35c that issues an admission card, and transmits the first admission information and the second admission information to the admission information activation unit 21d.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the admission card issuing device 35 also serves as an input unit 35b by the one-dimensional code or two-dimensional code reading unit 35a and the touch panel display 35d, and further, the admission card issuing unit 25d such as an IC card. It is also possible to use the terminal dedicated to issuing an admission card, and the input unit 35b can be equipped with a keyboard instead of a touch panel for input.

Further, instead of the dedicated terminal for issuing the admission card, the company on the receiving side assigns reception staff, and the reception staff operates the admission card issuing device 35, and the admission card issuing device 35 is used as a general-purpose desktop PC. It is also possible to configure it in combination with a one-dimensional code or two-dimensional code scanner and a writer such as an IC card.

The reading unit 35a is made to print the first admission information and read what the visitor brought, or display it on the visitor's mobile terminal 5 such as a smartphone or tablet PC possessed by the visitor. , The display will be read.

The admission certificate issuing device 35 transmits the first admission information and the second admission information input via the reading unit 35a and the input unit 35b to the admission information activation unit 21d. The admission information activation unit 21d provides uniquely corresponding visitor identification information and related visit date / time identification information with respect to the first admission information and the second admission information in light of the visit information database 22a. It is confirmed whether it exists, and if such specific information exists, the visitor identification information associated with the first admission information and the visit date / time identification information associated with the second admission information are scheduled. An admission card that can be used by visitors only at a predetermined date and time zone or place set in response to the visit date and time specific information is issued as matching the visitor, date and time, and place.

On the contrary, the admission information activation unit 21d uniquely corresponds to the visitor identification information and the visit date and time related thereto with respect to the first admission information and the second admission information in light of the visit information database 22a. It is confirmed whether the specific information exists, and if the specific information does not exist, the visitor specific information associated with the first admission information and the visit date / time specific information associated with the second admission information However, since it does not match the scheduled visitor, date and time, or location, it is possible to indicate that the admission card cannot be issued on the touch panel display 35d, which is the display unit of the admission card issuing device 35, without issuing the admission card.

The admission card issuing device 35 converts the first admission information composed of the one-dimensional code or the two-dimensional code in advance, and the converted numbers and / or characters uniquely corresponding to the visitor identification information. A character string consisting of the above is transmitted to the admission information activation unit 21d.

A reusable IC card or a rewrite card is issued as an admission card from the admission card issuing unit 35c of the admission card issuing device 35. When the admission card is an IC card, the information required for admission is electrically stored inside the card, read by the reading unit 26a of the admission permit device 26, and whether or not admission is possible is determined by the admission determination unit 21e. Is the same as in the first embodiment.

In addition, if the admission card is not an IC card but a rewrite card that allows you to see the date and time when you can enter the building, the name that identifies the visitor, etc., you can use an electromechanical device such as an admission permit device. It is also possible for the security staff to individually check the information on the admission card and determine whether or not to allow admission to the restricted admission area 7 without installing.

In addition, by combining the functions of an IC card that electrically stores information inside and a rewrite card that allows you to visually check the information, you can give both functions to one card and use it as an admission card, such as a flapper gate. It is also possible to use the admission permit device 26 and the visual confirmation of the admission card by the police staff separately by the entrance or the like.

The second embodiment also differs in that the first embodiment can use the first admission information as it is as an admission card, but other than that, it is possible to obtain exactly the same effect as the first embodiment. It is possible.

The present invention can be embodied in many forms without departing from its essential properties. Therefore, it goes without saying that the above-described embodiments are merely explanatory and do not limit the present invention.
