Abstract

PURPOSE:To switch security function in correspondence to the staff in charge of different qualification by hierarchically classifying identification information, storing the information, discriminating which hierarchy the identification information received from an external part belongs to and individually canceling the function. CONSTITUTION:The identification information showing a right owner 2a to unlock and transport a trunk 1 for keeping and transporting valuables are stored as the first hierarchy and the identification information showing a right owner 2b to transport the trunk 1 are stored as the second hierarchy. When any identification information are received from the external part by a receiver 3, it is decided which hierarchy the information belongs to. In the case of the first hierarchy, the unlock prohibition function and move warning function of the trunk are canceled and in the case of the second hierarchy, only the move warning function is canceled. Thus, even in a single system, the security function can be switched in correspondence to the qualification of the staff to handle the trunk.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a valuables storage device used for storing and transporting valuables such as cash, jewelry, and precious metals.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, when storing valuables such as cash, jewelry, and precious metals, it is common to lock the storage device. the current,
Keys come in a variety of core shapes, from simple locks that can be opened by inserting the key into a keyhole and turning, to practical locks that use a magnetic card as a keyhole or electric locks that can be opened by entering a 5-code code. has been done. In addition, in order to ensure that only specific individuals can unlock the lock, when a person carrying a small identification information transmitter approaches, a receiver connected to the lock reads the identification information, and that identification information is registered in advance. An electronic unlocking system has also been proposed that automatically unlocks the door if the lock matches the lock.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The above-mentioned conventional technology has a relatively simple overall system configuration and can be used in applications where the storage device is not used by too many people. However, if there are many types of people handling the storage device and you want to change the security function of the storage device depending on the type of qualification or rank of the person,
In conventional systems, multiple locks are attached to one storage device, and depending on the qualifications of the person handling the storage device,
It becomes necessary to distinguish between keys to be handed over and keys not to be handed over. In this case, the administrator of the storage device has to manage a large number of keys, which is inconvenient, and it also happens that storing many locks in one storage device leads to high costs.

The present invention has been made in view of these points, and its purpose is to provide a valuables storage device that can switch and control security functions according to the qualifications of the user. .

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above problems, in the present invention, types of identification information are classified and stored hierarchically in advance, and identification information received from the outside is classified into which hierarchy. The system determines whether the security functions belong to the hierarchy, and individually cancels any one of the security functions according to the hierarchy.

Here, the identification information received from the outside includes, for example, identification information indicating that the user has the right to unlock the storage device, identification information that indicates that the user has the right to transport the storage device, or identification information that indicates that the user has the right to transport the storage device. There is identification information indicating that the person is the holder of the lock and transportation rights. In addition, the security function that can be canceled individually is the storage device solution j2? It has a 4i% stop function and a movement alarm function.

[Operation] In the valuables storage device according to the present invention, identification information is hierarchically classified and stored, so that, for example, identification information indicating who is the holder with the right to unlock and transport the storage device is stored in the first storage device. Identification information indicating that the person is the right holder to transport the storage device is stored as a second layer, and identification information indicating that the person is the right holder to unlock the storage device is stored as a third layer. . When some identification information is received from the outside, it is determined to which hierarchy the identification information belongs, and the first
If the storage device is in the second layer, the unlocking prohibition function and movement warning function of the storage device are canceled; if the storage device is in the second layer, only the unlocking prohibition function of the storage device is canceled; if the storage device is in the third layer, the storage device is not moved. Cancel only the alarm function. In this way, although it is a single system, the security functions can be switched depending on the qualifications of the person in charge of handling the storage device.

[Example code] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described according to the country.

Figure 1 shows an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a trunk for storing and transporting valuables. Indicate the handler! ! Persons A and B in charge of handling the work use individual identification information transmitters 2a and 2 assigned to each person.
It is assumed that the 0 transmitters 2a and 2b, which have 0 transmitters 2a and 2b, respectively transmit identification information ``aa'' and ``bb''. 3 is a receiver of the identification information sent from the identification information transmitters 2a and 2b. , S represents the reachable range of the identification information sent from the identification information transmitter 2a. Note that the identification information can be transmitted by radio waves, light,
It is read in a non-contact manner using signal waves such as ultrasound and magnetic lines of force.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the hardware configuration of this embodiment. Among 11, 1 is a trunk, 2a and 2b are transmitters of identification information, and 3 is a receiver of identification information. 4 is a data processing circuit consisting of a microcomputer, etc.; 5
is a storage device that stores a plurality of pieces of identification information in a hierarchical manner. 6a, 6b, . . . are devices that individually control various security functions, 6a is, for example, an unlocking device for an electric lock, and 6b is, for example, a mobile alarm device that issues an alarm when moving.

The operation of this embodiment will be explained below. -For example,
Person in charge of handling A belongs to the first layer Ia, who has both the qualification to transport trunk 1 and the qualification to perform unlocking operation, and person in charge of handling B belongs to the second tier, who has only the qualification to transport trunk 1. do.

Now, when either handler A or B approaches trunk 1 to perform some task, the identification information
When the trunk 1 enters the reachable area S, the receiver 3 receives the identification information "aa" or "bb". This identification information is sent to the data processing circuit 4, where it is compared with an identification information table previously stored in the storage device 5. An example of the identification information table in the storage device 5 is shown in 3rd I2I. If the identification information "aa" is received and sent to the data processing circuit 4, the data processing circuit 4 determines that the person currently attempting to perform the work is a qualified person belonging to the first hierarchy. Various security devices 6a included in the trunk 1 are used for transportation and unlocking work.
, 6 sends a command to b, . - For example, if the system is such that an alarm device would normally be activated if someone tries to move trunk 1 unnecessarily, the alarm device may be disabled, or trunk 1, which cannot normally be opened with just a key, may be activated. Possible solutions include creating a state where the lid can be opened by simply inserting the key. If the received identification information is °'bb'', the data processing circuit 4 only sends a command to stop the V-information device for transportation work,
Even if the key is inserted, the lid remains unopenable.

Similarly, by categorizing handling personnel into levels according to their qualifications and storing identification information for each level in the storage device 5 in the trunk 1, various security devices 6a, 6 can be installed according to the received identification information. b.

can be controlled.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the valuables storage device of the present invention, the persons in charge of handling the storage device are classified in advance according to their qualifications, and the identification information of each person in charge of handling is stored in the storage device for each layer. If this is done, the storage device can individually release any of its security functions according to the identification information of the person handling the storage device, so even though it is a single system, it can be This has the effect that the security function can be switched depending on the person in charge of handling it.
