Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to control strictly opening and closing conditions of the door in the safe itself automatically by having no lock unlock as far as personal information in which an electric lock is registered is not inputted, and printing or storing the time, recognition results and comparison results with registration information when there is input operation in a personal information recognition means. CONSTITUTION:Before operating a system, first of all, the registration of a specific qualified person is made. When the registration is completed, the system is immediately in a state of operation. Under such conditions, a card is inserted in a card reader 5 and, at the same time, when a personal identification number specified to each person is inputted from a ten key 6, the inputted data is recognized, and it is decided on whether the recognized results correspond to registered contents or not. When the card and the personal identification number are properly registered, control signals are transmitted to a driver 7, and an electromagnetic lock 1 is unlocked. When input operation is made to the card reader 5 and the ten key 6, the recognized results of input contents or the comparison results with registration contents are printed by a printer 4 in spite of the results of decision.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Field of Industrial Application> The present invention relates to a device for managing the opening/closing status of a safe installed in, for example, a bank or the like.

<Prior Art> In financial institutions such as banks, the locks of safes are strictly controlled, and in addition to this, the Ministry of Finance has instructed that safes should only be opened and closed by specified persons.

Conventionally, financial institutions have managed the opening and closing of safes by recording the opening and closing status of the safe and the names of the personnel involved in the opening and closing ledger.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> By the way, when financial institutions are audited by the Ministry of Finance,
In order to improve the reliability of safe opening/closing management, the Ministry of Finance has asked whether the above-mentioned opening/closing ledger is checked against the attendance records of specified persons entered in it. Guidance on countermeasures is being provided.

As a countermeasure related to such guidance, has a method of controlling access to the room where the safe is installed been put into practical use?As shown below, this control of access to the safe is not a fundamental countermeasure.

In other words, for example, a card reading device is installed on the door of a vault, so that the door of the vault opens only when a designated cart is placed there, and the card is given only to a specific person. Even if they did, it is unclear how many people actually entered the room. In other words, all you need to know is whether one legal card was used. Furthermore, since the safe door itself is opened and closed manually by the person in charge, it is completely unclear who actually opened and closed the safe. If you can get the safe card, you can open and close the safe at will.

In other words, even if you control the opening and closing of the vault door, there is no evidence that the person who opened and closed the door to the vault itself is the same person as the person who opened and closed the vault door.
In the end, there is no guarantee that a limited person opened or closed the safe door.

The present invention has been developed in view of these points, and it is possible to automatically and strictly control the opening and closing status of the door of the safe itself, thereby achieving management that is more consistent with the guidance of the Ministry of Finance. The purpose is to provide a device that can.

Means for Solving the Problems> The configuration for achieving the above object will be explained with reference to the basic conceptual diagram shown in FIG. An electric lock a, a personal information registration means for storing personal identification information input from an input section in a storage section, and a personal information recognition means C for recognizing personal information input at least when the door of the safe is opened. , a comparison means d that compares the recognition result with the information registered in the personal information registration means C, and when an input operation is made to the personal information recognition means C, at least a comparison is made between the time, the recognition result, and the comparison means d. Recording means e for storing or printing the results
Based on the comparison result by the comparison means d, the electric lock a will be activated only if the entered personal information matches the registered information.
It is characterized by having a lock control means f which outputs a signal for unlocking the lock.

Function> The safe will not be unlocked unless you enter the electric lock a attached to the door itself or enter pre-registered personal information.

Further, when an input operation is made to the personal information recognition means C, the time, recognition result, and comparison result with registered information are printed or stored.

As described above, it is guaranteed that the door of the safe was opened by a specific limited person, and the management of the opening/closing situation becomes reliable and not arbitrary.

<Embodiment> FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of an embodiment of the present invention.

The electromagnetic lock 1 is mounted on the door of a safe in parallel with a normal mechanical main lock such as a combination lock, and is placed under the control of a controller 2.

The controller 2 is composed of a computer mainly including a CPU and peripheral devices such as input/output interfaces. This controller 2 includes a keyboard 3 for registering and inputting personal information, a printer 4 for printing the opening/closing status, a card reader 5 for reading cards handed out only to specified persons, and a card reader 5 for reading cards handed out only to specified persons. A numeric keypad 6 for inputting individually determined passwords, and a driver 7 for driving the electromagnetic lock 1
or connected. Of these, the controller 2, keyboard 3, printer 4, driver 7, and DC power supply 8 that supplies power to this system are housed in a control panel 9.

FIG. 3 is a front view (a) and a cross-sectional view (bl) of the main parts of the embodiment of the present invention having the above-mentioned configuration, showing a state in which it is attached to the safe 10.

As described above, the electromagnetic lock 1 is attached to the metal layer 11 along with the conventional mechanical combination lock 12 and lock 13. Further, a card reader 5 and a numeric keypad 6 for inputting a password are arranged near the front side of the metal layer 11, and a control panel 8 is installed, for example, at an appropriate location within the safe 10.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the basic system program of the embodiment of the present invention, and the operation method and operation of the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to this diagram.

Before operating the system, first register a limited person (STI). This registration is performed by individually registering a card that is handed out only to a specific limited person, and by inputting a password individually determined for each person from the keyboard 3. Note that, as the registered capacity, for example, 8 digits for a card, 4 digits for a password, etc. are appropriate.

Once this registration is completed, the system is immediately ready for operation.

In this state, when the card is inserted into the card reader 5 and a personal identification number specified for each person is entered from the numeric keypad 6 (ST2), the input data is recognized (ST3).
), it is determined whether the recognition result matches the registered content (ST4).

Then, only if the card and password are correctly registered, a control signal is sent to the driver 7, and the electromagnetic lock 1 is unlocked (ST5).

In addition, if there is a manual operation on the card reader 5 and numeric keypad 6, regardless of the determination result by ST4, ST
The recognition result of the input content in step 3 and the comparison result with the registered content are printed by the printer 4 (ST6, 5T7).

It is preferable that the printed content includes, in addition to the recognition results and comparison results of the input data, the date and time of input, and the reason when a mismatch is determined in ST4.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a specific example of the operation of the system and the content printed by the printer 4.

In this example, the metal layer 11 can only be opened if a specific person with a diameter of 2 Å or more is present and input operations are not made within a certain period of time, and The setting is such that opening of the metal layer 11 is permitted only if the operation is performed within the specified time.

In this example, first, if there is an input operation by the -th person (ST
II) After recognizing the input content (ST12), the recognition result is compared with the registered content, and at the same time, it is determined in 5T13 whether or not the current time is within a predetermined time on a preset day of the week.

If any of these conditions are not satisfied, proceed from 5T13 to 5T14 and provide the input date, time, read result of the input information, and the reason why the door was not allowed to be opened. Print with printer 4.

When it is determined in 5T13 that all the conditions are satisfied, it waits for the input operation of the second person (ST 15), and if a preset time has elapsed by the time the input is received, the information of the -th person is returned. The printer 4 prints out the date and time of input, the read result of the input information, and the fact that two people have input or the time has expired (ST16, 5T).
17).

If the input operation for two people is correctly input before the specified time elapses, after the input content is recognized (ST l
8) It is determined whether the input information matches the registered information (ST19).

If the input contents of 2 people do not match the registered information, 5
Proceeding to T20, the printer 4 prints the input year, month, date, time, -th person's input information and the discrimination result, and the input information of the second person and the discrimination result (discrepancy).

5T19 If the input content of the second person matches what is registered, a command is sent to the driver 7 to unlock the electromagnetic lock 1 (ST21),
The printer 4 prints out the year, month, date, time, manual content of the -th person and second person, and the determination result input in ST22.

In addition, in this example, when unlocking the metal layer 11, 3 Å
If you want to make settings that require the above, just add the same procedure as for two populations.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and personal information recognition means include not only the card reader and PIN recognition device as described above, but also other devices such as a fingerprint recognition device, a retinal recognition device, or a voice recognition device. Any known personal information recognition device may be used, and there is no hindrance to employing only one of them or any plurality of them in parallel.

Furthermore, it is desirable to be able to delete registered contents at any time.

Furthermore, in the above embodiments, the printer is configured to print each time there is a manual operation, or a storage device may be provided in place of the printer, and the stored contents may be called up at any time. Needless to say.

Furthermore, it is also possible to configure the safe to require a similar operation not only when entering the safe but also when leaving the safe.

<Effects of the Invention> As explained above, according to the present invention, unless personal information that matches pre-registered personal information is input,
In addition to not allowing the safe to be unlocked, we also configured the system to record this fact using a recording device such as a printer or storage device in the event that an input operation is made, so it is possible to prevent the safe from being unlocked. , this will be possible only to a specific person who has been registered in advance, and the person who opened the safe and the time information will be recorded, and the opening of the safe itself will be automatically and strictly controlled. It becomes possible. This means that the identity of the person who actually opened the safe can be completely controlled, except in cases where the person in charge has the consent of the person in charge, and in particular, it is possible to control who actually opened the safe. By configuring it as required and setting it to include complicated opening/closing conditions, extremely strict automatic management becomes possible, and this can be a measure that closely matches the guidance of the Ministry of Finance.
