In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a server that establishes a web page that can be connected to a user terminal including a mobile phone on the Internet. The user can use the terminal while updating and storing the latest available information of each individual in a database. When the server is connected to the server, the database is searched and the information available to the facility that satisfies the specified search conditions is transmitted to the user's terminal.

In another aspect, the present invention comprises a computer having a sensor for detecting the user's entry and exit and a server for calculating the current facility information based on the output signal from the sensor unit and transmits it to the outside, the sensor comprises a switch board that can be manually operated It is possible to replace and have a facility server that detects the entrance and exit of the main server and the installed user, the facility server provides the information available to the facility in real time to the main server in the present time.

The main server using the mobile phone updates and stores the recently available information of each facility in the database. When the user accesses the main server's web page and enters a search condition, the main server searches the database and meets the search condition. The facility may be leaked and the information available to the facility may be transmitted to the user terminal, and the user may determine whether to use the facility from the facility availability information sent to the terminal.

In addition to the information currently available, the information available for each facility also includes information that can be used to predict future future at this time.

This is because, among the facility information, facilities that can be used without reservation, such as parking lots, leisure hotels, and eateries, can be added to the user's schedule at the present time. This is because the information available in the near future is important.

When including the area designation as the search condition, the main server searches the database only for the facilities existing in the designated area and transmits the available information of the leaked facility to the user terminal.

In other words, the area designation at that time can be specified by the user through the web page from the main server on the screen of the user terminal, but when accessing from the user terminal, information about the access pointer of the service provider delivered to the main server or the user When the terminal is a cellular phone, if the main server itself can specify the location of the user terminal on the basis of the information on the location of the base station to which the cellular phone is connected, the main server is located around the presence of the user terminal. It is possible to recognize automatically by designation.

In addition, when the price is specified in the search item, the main server leaks only the available information of the facility suitable for the price range of the designated fee and sends it to the user terminal.

When using the sensor and the sensor unit for detecting the user's entrance and exit, the server computer calculates and transmits the current facility availability information to the outside based on the output signal from the sensor unit for detecting the user's entrance / exit.

Here, the main server connected to the facility server can receive the available information from the facility server in real time and update the database.

In other words, the available information of the facility thus obtained is calculated based on the current use status of the facility.

However, the facility server may be arbitrarily connected to the main server through any communication line such as the Internet, a public telephone line, a CATV line, a dedicated line, or a wireless line.

The server computer transmits the current facility availability information based on data requests from the outside, for example, to initialize the system with the restart of the main server, and then to update the database in the primary server. It is possible to update to exactly.

However, the switch board can also be operated manually whenever the charge of the reception counter of the facility enters or leaves the user.

In addition, when using both the mobile phone and the sensor that detects the entry / exit of the user, the facility server sends the available information of the current facility to the main server in real time, and the main server sends it to the database. When there is a renewal memory and a connection from the user terminal, the database is searched, the available information of the facility corresponding to the specified search condition is searched and transmitted to the user terminal, and the user is provided with the information.

EXAMPLE

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention provides a facility-available information providing system having a main server 100 and one or more facility servers 20 for connecting the Internet N as an intermediary.

The main server 10 is a server that holds a database 11 and opens a web page on the Internet N.

That is, the web page of the main server 100 can be accessed through the Internet by the unspecified user terminal 310.

However, each user terminal 31 is a mobile phone or computer terminal that can be connected to the Internet N, and the web page of the main server 10 can be viewed by any user terminal 31 including a mobile phone.

The facility server 20 is distributed in each of the unmarked facilities, and the facility here refers to a leisure hotel.

The main server 10 is connected via the Internet N. FIG.

However, each facility server 20 may connect to the main server 10 via any communication line other than the Internet (N).

Each facility server 20 according to the present invention comprises a sensor 21, an interface 22, and a server computer 23 as shown in FIG. 2, and each sensor 21 is provided for each leisure hotel room. It is an installed entrance / exit sensor and is connected to the server computer 23 via the interface 22, where the sensor 21 is capable of detecting entry / exit of a user in a facility.

If there is a change in the output signal S1 from the sensor 21, the server computer 23 operates in accordance with the program programming as shown in FIG.

That is, the server computer 23 collects the output signal S1 (program step 1 in Fig. 3, hereinafter referred to as [1]), and the information D available to the facility at the present time. It can calculate and transmit to the main server 20 externally in real time.

The database 11 in the main server 10 is configured as shown in FIG. 4, and the database 11 includes the facility name, the location, and the telephone number for each facility where each facility server 2 is installed. It consists of a combination of fixed area DB1, which stores and stores the usage fee system, location map, room size, etc., and variable area DB2, which stores and stores the current number of available rooms.

However, there are three types of rooms A, B, and C in one facility of FIG.

In addition, if the main server 10 receives the availability information D of the facility transmitted from each facility server 20 as shown in FIG. 5, it is available to DB2 in the variation area of the facility of the database 11. The information D is stored and stored, and the database 11 is updated (program step (1) in the same drawing).

However, the available information D from each facility server 20 indicates the current number of rooms for each type of room in the case of a facility having a plurality of rooms as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, the main server 10 operates by the program of FIG. 6 when there is a connection from any user terminal 31.

That is, the main server 10 transmits the web page including the guide information to the connected user terminal 31 as shown in the program staff 1 of FIG. 6 and starts the detection start from the user terminal 31. Wait for instructions.

In this case, the web page includes a message input window for specifying search conditions including region designation and price designation by adding appropriate guide information, and a button for instructing search start, where the user is on the screen of the user terminal 31. It is possible to designate necessary search conditions and instruct to start searching in accordance with the guide information of the web page displayed in the.

The main server 10 receives an instruction of the initiation of the search from the user terminal 31 (2), searches the database 11 (3), and searches for a facility that satisfies the specified search condition. Is to transmit the available information (D) to the user terminal 31.

Here, the user can look at the search result information transmitted from the main gerber 10 and decide which of the facilities to be searched to use.

In addition, when the user terminal 31 is a mobile phone, the user can inquire on the screen of the IYO terminal 31 directly by connecting to the facility with the telephone number of the facility.

That is, each facility server 20 receives the data request from the main server 10 and transmits the current facility availability information D to the main server 10 in response.

However, the facility server 20 at that time may transmit the available information D as it is based on the output signal S1 from the sensor 21.

The main server 10 updates the database 11 with the available information D from each facility server 20 and waits for a connection from the user terminal 31.

The main server 10 and the facility server by forcibly collecting the latest available information D in all the facilities on a regular basis, for example, on the basis of the system initialization after the reactivation of the main server 10 is stopped. It is prevented that each facility available information D in the database 11 is diverted from the latest information due to a temporary failure of the transmission line between the 20 and the like.

[Other Embodiments]

The sensor 21 of each facility server 20 can be replaced by a manually operable switch board. The switch board is installed at the reception counter of the facility and is manually operated by the person in charge whenever the user enters or leaves the facility. It is possible to input the current use situation to the server computer 23.

In other words, the scheduled use time may be set for each user on the switch board in place of the sensor 21, and the server computer 23 at this time may add the current available information D to the prediction of the funeral at a later time. The available information can be calculated in parallel and transmitted to the main server 10.

Here, the main server 10 can store the database 11 in parallel with the information available for prediction and provide it to the user through the screen of the user terminal 31.

However, the setting function of the scheduled use time may be added not only to the switch board but also to the entrance / exit sensor, and the user of each room may perform the setting operation.

That is, the present invention can be widely and suitably applied to all small facilities in which physical space is limited, such as leisure hotels, karaoke, theaters or cinemas, parking lots, eateries and pubs, bars, coffee shops, and the like. Do.

As described above, according to the information search using the mobile phone, the search result of the available information of each current facility is displayed on the web page, so that the user can easily use the currently available facilities through the user terminal including the mobile phone. In this case, the server computer uses the server computer to detect the user's entry / exit, so that the server computer transmits the available information of the current facility to the outside in real time. It is possible to increase, and even with very simple equipment, it is possible to minimize the installation and operating costs.

In addition, according to the case where information retrieved using the facility server of the present invention is transmitted in real time, the user can real-time the available information of each facility through a web page from the main server through the user's terminal including a mobile phone. Because it is possible to view the site and share a common web page by a plurality of facilities, it is possible to minimize the operating cost as a whole and to apply it to a small facility that can be used without reservation.
