JPS62147563A - External confirmation system for intra-house information - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain confirmation of the intra-house information at an optional time point by confirming an alarm sound by means of a call switch of a doorphone and therefore eliminating the complicated operation of a switch which is set in an outgoing state. CONSTITUTION:The intra-house information detected by sensors 4-1-4-n are sent to an abnormality deciding part 6 via a sensor receiving part 5. When the door is locked at the entrance in an outgoing state, a door lock sensor 8 transmits the lock signal and a locking rise change detecting part 9 produces the locking ON state signal. When a call switch 1-1 of a doorphone 1 is pushed, a call ON signal is sent to an AND gate 12. Thus the gate 12 outputs a signal. While the part 6 drives an alarm sound generating part 7 if the intra-house information has the abnormality. Thus the part 7 outputs the alarm sound from a speaker 1-3 via hybrid circuits 3-4, 3-5 and 1-4 in response to the contents of the abnormality.

When a visitor presses the ringing switch 1-1 of the doorphone 1 installed outside the entrance of the house, the signal is sent via the ringing signal line 2 to the ringer drive section 3-1 of the intercom 3 installed inside the house. is operated to output a ringing tone from the ringing tone generator 3-2 to notify the resident of the house that a visitor has arrived. Thereafter, the visitor and the resident of the home communicate with the microphones 1-2 of the doorbell 1. Speaker 1-3, hybrid circuit 1-4, and handset 3-3 of intercom 3. Hybrid circuit 3-4. The communication operation is performed via the hybrid circuit 3-5. Next, in the operation of checking the information inside the house when the resident of the house goes out, the inside information 1 detected by the sensors 4-1...4-n of the sensor section 4 installed inside the house. . . . n is sent to the abnormality determination unit 6 via the sensor reception unit 5, and when the resident of the house goes out, after setting the going out setting switch 11 and locking the front door, the front door is closed. The lock sensor 8 detects a locking signal and sends the signal to a locking start-up change detection section 9, and the locking start-up change detection section 9 creates a lock-on state signal. The gate section 12 outputs a signal to the abnormality determination section starting line 13 while the going out signal from the going out setting switch 11 and the locking on state signal from the locking rise change detecting section 9 are being outputted.

The abnormality determining section 6 determines an abnormality based on the signal, and drives the warning sound generating section 7 if there is an abnormality. The warning sound generating unit 7 generates warning sounds corresponding to the abnormalities in the residential information 1...n to the hybrid circuits 3-4 and 3-5.
, hybrid circuit 1-4.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the above-mentioned conventional external verification system for information inside the house, there were seven problems as follows.

■When going out When the user forgets to set the out setting switch 11, the warning sound may not be output.

■In the case of entrance locks that cannot separate the internal lock signal and external lock signal, a warning sound may be output even when the internal lock is activated.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned points, and eliminates the above-mentioned problems, eliminates the complexity of setting operations when going out, and allows the resident to hear the warning sound only when necessary. The objective is to provide an external confirmation method for information inside a house.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides sensors 4-1...
-n and the sensor 4-1 . In an external confirmation method for information inside a house configured to allow information to be confirmed, the call switch 1-1 and the call signal line 2 of the doorbell 1 outside the house are used in place of the going out setting switch 11, and the call switch 1-1 It is configured so that when the button is pressed, information inside the house can be checked from the outside.

[Function] By configuring as described above, it is possible to use the call switch 1-1 of the doorbell 1 outside the house when going out, and to confirm the warning sound when the call switch 1-1 is pressed. In-house information can be checked at any time without requiring a complicated outing setting switch 11 as in the conventional case.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a system configuration of an external verification method for information inside a residence according to the present invention. In this figure, parts given the same reference numerals as those in FIG. 2 indicate the same or equivalent parts.

In FIG. 1, first, in a call operation between a visitor to a house and a resident of the house, when the visitor presses the call switch 1-1 of the doorbell 1 installed outside the entrance of the house,
The output signal passes through the ringing signal line 2 and operates the ringer drive unit 3-1 of the intercom 3 installed in the house, outputs a ringer from the ringer generator 3-2, and visits the resident of the house. announce that someone has arrived. Thereafter, the visitor and the resident of the house are connected to the microphone 1-2 of the doorbell 1. Speaker 1-3. Hybrid circuit 1-4 and intercom 3 handset 3-3. Hybrid circuit 3-4. A telephone call is made via the hybrid circuit 3-5. Next, when checking the information inside the house when the resident goes out, the inside information 1...n detected by the sensors 4-1...4-n of the sensor unit 4 is The signal is sent to the abnormality determination unit 6 via the sensor receiving unit 5. When the occupant of the house locks the front door when going out, the front door lock sensor 8 detects a locking signal, and the detected signal is used to lock the door. The lock rising change detecting section 9 generates a lock-on state signal. Call switch 1 of doorbell 1 while locked on
When -1 is pressed, AND gate 12 is sent via call signal line 2.
A call-on signal is transmitted to the AND gate 12, and the AND gate 12 outputs a signal to the abnormality determination operation flow line 13 while the call-on signal and lock-on state signal are output. The abnormality determining unit 6 operates to determine an abnormality based on this signal, and determines whether the in-house information 1...n is abnormal from the sensor receiving unit 5,
If there is an abnormality, the warning sound generator 7 is activated. The warning sound generating unit 7 generates warning sounds corresponding to the abnormalities in the residential information 1...n to the hybrid circuits 3-4, 3-5, . It can be output from the speaker 1-3 of the door phone 1 via the hybrid circuit 1-4. This confirmation operation continues while the call switch 1-1 is turned on.

As explained above, according to the above embodiment, when the call field switch 1-1 of the door phone 1 installed outside the house is used when going out, and when the call switch 1-1 is pressed, the sensor 4-1.
The abnormality determination unit 6 determines whether or not the information 1 in the house from 4-n is abnormal, and if there is an abnormality, the warning sound generation unit 7 outputs the details of the abnormality. Since a corresponding warning sound is emitted, there is no need to operate the going out setting switch 11 when going out, unlike the conventional external confirmation system for information inside the house as shown in Fig. 2 above.
Problems such as a warning sound not being output due to forgetting to set the going out setting switch 11 when going out, or a warning sound being output even when the internal lock is locked in the case of a front door lock that cannot separate the internal lock signal and external lock signal. There will be no points.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, the call switch of the doorbell outside the house is used, and when the call switch is pressed, it is possible to confirm the warning sound. This provides the excellent effect of being able to check the information inside the house at any time without having to operate the out-of-home setting switch.
