Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention is suitable for use in entrances and exits of, for example, cash hangars, safe deposit boxes, important rooms in computer rooms, executive rooms of companies, secret rooms in research institutes, secret rooms in factories, etc., or the side entrances of financial institutions. This invention relates to a device for controlling the entry and exit of people such as

In addition to the examples above, there are many entrances and exits that would be undesirable if anyone could enter and exit freely, and only allow specific people to enter and exit. The previous control at entrances and exits that only allowed access to specific people was to install mechanical locks at the entrances and exits, and only those who had a key that could unlock the locks could enter and exit. Or, install an electronic lock at the entrance.
Only those who possessed a card with a magnetic strip that unlocked the electronic lock were allowed to enter and exit. However, with the mechanical lock mentioned above, it is relatively easy to create a spare key, and with a magnetic card, even someone other than the person in possession of the card can unlock the electronic lock. .

In view of the above points, the present invention was developed with the purpose of providing a new entrance/exit control device that allows only certain authorized persons to enter and exit. It consists of a card equipped with a magnetic band with data recorded on it and a face photo, and an identification mechanism equipped with an input section for accepting the card and inputting the data on the magnetic band, and a voice transmission/reception section. A television camera for photographing the person's face and a television camera for photographing the face of the accepted card are separately installed, and the television camera for directly photographing the person's face is concealed by a half mirror. ,
A television monitor is installed in a separate room that connects to each of the television cameras mentioned above and displays the person's face as well as the photo on the card. The feature is that the entrance/exit door can be opened/closed by remote control.

The details of the present invention will be explained below with reference to the illustrated embodiments.

Reference numeral 1 in FIG. 2 indicates an entrance leading to an important room, and in the illustrated embodiment, it is provided inside the building. That is, the small room 2 is provided inside the small room 2 facing the outside of the building, and people enter the small room 2 through an external doorway 3 that can be freely accessed.
The important room can be accessed through the entrance/exit 1. 4 is an entrance/exit door provided at the entrance/exit 1, and this entrance/exit door is opened/closed by remote control.

Furthermore, numeral 5 in the figure is an identification mechanism installed facing the small room 2, the details of which are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. The personal identification mechanism 5 has an input section 7 at the lowest position for accepting a card 6 carried by the user. As shown in FIG. 5, the card 6 has a magnetic band 8 on which data such as a personal record and a calling signal are recorded, and a photograph 9 of the person's face. The input section 7 has drive rollers 11, 11 for drawing in and sending out the card 6 inserted from the card insertion slot 10, similar to a known card acceptance mechanism, and at a mid-acceptance position calls a monitor room to be described later. Records such as the person's code number recorded on the magnetic band 8 are read and the time of entry into the room is recorded. Further, this input section 7 is designed to project the received card 6 rearward, so that the facial photograph of the card 6 is exposed at the final ejected position. A television camera 12 is provided to take a photograph 9 of the face of the exposed card 6.

Further, reference numerals 13 and 14 in the figure represent microphones and speakers as audio transmitting/receiving sections, which enable transmission and reception with a monitor room, which will be described later. Furthermore, numeral 15 is a television camera that directly photographs the person's face, and is positioned at a height that allows the person's face to be photographed when the person stands in front of the person. The television camera 1 is installed with a half mirror 16.
5 is hidden so that this television camera 15 cannot be seen from the small room 2 side.

Reference numeral 17 in FIGS. 1 and 2 is a separate room serving as a monitor room, and television monitors 18 and 19 connected to the above-mentioned television cameras 12 and 15 are installed in this separate room 17. Although not shown, a speaker and a microphone connected to the microphone 13 and speaker 14 are installed. In addition, numeral 20 in the figure is a television camera for monitoring installed in the small room 2, and the image taken by this camera is displayed on a television monitor 21 in a separate room 17.

When a person enters the room through the entrance/exit 1 equipped with the device of the present invention configured as described above, the person inserts the card 6 in his or her possession into the card insertion slot 1 of the identification mechanism 5.
When the card 6 is inserted into the input section 7, the card 6 is read out and at the same time a call signal is issued to call a person in a separate room 17 serving as a monitor room. In this way, it is possible to communicate with the called person in the separate room 17 using the microphone 13 and speaker 14 as a voice transmitting/receiving section. At the same time, the inserted card 6 is pushed backward from the input section 7, and a photograph 9 of the person's face is taken by the television camera 12, and the image is displayed on the television monitor 18. On the other hand, the person's face is directly photographed by the television camera 15, and this image is displayed on the television monitor 19.
is shown in the image. Therefore, the person in the separate room 17 compares the person's face in the photo 9 shown on both television monitors 18 and 19, confirms that the two match, and then closes the entrance/exit door 4 by remote control. can be opened. Thereupon, the person in question receives the card 6 returned from the input section 7 and can enter the important room through the entrance/exit 1.

As mentioned above, according to the entrance/exit control device of the present invention, the entrance/exit can be opened/closed remotely by comparing and confirming the person's own face with the face photo on the card that the person owns, thereby ensuring access control for only the person in question. It has an effect that can be done to. However, in this invention, the television camera that is incorporated into the identity verification mechanism that directly photographs the person is hidden by a half mirror so that the person does not feel uncomfortable. Since the security code is also built-in, it is possible to confirm the identity of the person in a natural state during a natural conversation, which has the advantage of further enhancing safety.
