Description

Mobile-based access management system and control method according thereto

The present invention relates to an access control system capable of securing the security of access while making the establishment of an apartment house or a building in an urban area convenient.

Today, apartment houses have exceeded the number of single-family houses, and now, apartment houses are becoming the mainstream of residential types. In most apartment houses, access is restricted to people other than residents, and it is common to allow visitors to go through procedures such as requesting separate identification.

Residents enter the apartment by memorizing their password number when entering and exiting the apartment and entering it at the entrance each time they enter, or by tagging the access key while carrying the access key.

Today, the 020 (Online To Offline) market is expanding day by day. It has been a long time since it has been a long time since it has been a long time since it has been a long time since it has been a long time since it has been a long time since it has been a long time since it has been a long time since it is possible to order food online by ordering food online using a smartphone.

In the case of parcel delivery or food orders, a third party is inevitably forced to enter and exit the common house, and residents use it due to the necessity of online ordering, but on the other hand, it is a reality that they are always concerned about the visit of others.

In the case of apartment houses, it is common for residents to enter and exit the door in such a way as to have to memorize their own password or to carry an access key.

On the other hand, due to the activation of online ordering, most people use online ordering, and the target of online ordering is almost everything necessary for daily life including food and beverages. In recent years, the use of food delivery apps has increased significantly, and the number of food orders using smartphones is also increasing significantly.

Moreover, this online market is expected to continue to grow for the time being with the corona epidemic. Due to the coronavirus outbreak, there is a society-wide scholarship of the desire to eliminate direct contact between people, and as a result, the importance of non-face-to-face contact is increasingly emerging in all industries, and accordingly, the demand for online orders will continue in the future. It is expected to increase significantly.

With the activation of online ordering, it is the current situation that numerous outsiders enter and exit apartment houses, and these delivery workers often call residents when entering or exit and enter and exit freely by being notified of a password.

In recent years, residents are aware that there is such a security vulnerability, but they simply ignore the security problem due to the necessity and hassle of ordering online.

Accordingly, there has been an urgent need to develop an access control system that can secure the security by restricting the access of outsiders except for the purpose while allowing the access of tenants to be convenient and visitors to access conveniently.

The mobile-based access management system according to the present invention is a technology that maximizes the convenience of access by making it possible to call an elevator and stop at a target floor while making the access convenient for the residents in an apartment house, etc. Make it an assignment.

The mobile-based access management system according to the present invention provides convenient access for outsiders in today's situation in which outsiders enter according to online orders, while limiting the access to a one-time basis to enhance the security of access to apartments, etc. Contributing to safety is a technical task.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below, but may be implemented in a variety of different forms, only these embodiments are intended to complete the disclosure of the present invention, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. It is provided to fully inform the person of the scope of the invention, and the invention is only defined by the scope of the claims. The same reference numerals refer to the same components throughout the specification.

In describing the embodiments of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, a detailed description thereof will be omitted, and terms to be described later are in the embodiments of the present invention. These terms are defined in consideration of the function of the user and may vary according to the intention or custom of users or operators. Therefore, the definition should be made based on the contents throughout this specification.

The present invention relates to a system for managing access to a building by communicating with a user's portable terminal (meaning a communication device capable of internnet such as a smartphone). In other words, when a user (resident, delivery person, courier, etc.) comes close to the door of an apartment, etc., the door is automatically opened without special manipulation, while the elevator is automatically called and the elevator is placed on the desired floor number. It relates to an access control system that makes it stop.

1 shows a mobile-based access management system according to the present invention. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In order to use the access control system according to the present invention, the user must install the App according to the present invention in his or her terminal. The above app is to enable the overall operation of the access control system according to the present invention, and will be referred to as an essential configuration.

The access code must be stored in the user's terminal in advance. After installing the app, the user enters his/her personal information and requests access code to the smart management server. The smart management server identifies the user's personal information regarding the request for the access code requested by the user, determines whether it is a legitimate accessor (resident, etc.), and gives an access code if it is deemed legitimate.

As will be described later, the access code may be valid for a certain period of time and may be temporary. In the case of one-time visitor to the building (visitors, parcel delivery, etc.), it is desirable to receive an access code for each visit. However, it would be desirable to give apartment residents and company employees a valid access code for regular periods such as 6 months and 1 year.

When the user has his or her own terminal on which the app is installed and approaches the door, the access control unit 200 detects it. The access control unit 200 goes through a step of reading the access code from the user's terminal through short-range communication. As already explained, the access code is what the user has in his or her terminal in advance. For short-range communication, any method of short-range communication such as Bluetooth (including low-power Bluetooth (BLE)) and Wi-Fi can be used. When the user's terminal approaches within a certain distance (communicable distance), the access control unit 200 is operated.

The access control unit 200 reads the access code of a nearby user and sends the read access code to the smart central server 100 to confirm its validity. The smart management server analyzes the received access code to determine whether the access code is properly issued, and notifies the result to the access control unit 200.

When the access control unit 200 receives a signal indicating that the access code is properly issued from the smart management server, the access door is opened.

The access control unit 200 has a function that enables a user to communicate with a terminal in a short distance and a function to communicate with a smart management server at the same time, and can communicate with the access control unit 300 that directly controls the opening of the door. As such, the present invention corresponds to the core configuration.

The detection unit 400 is a component that detects when a commercial person arrives at the door. The detection unit 400 is a sensor that detects motion and detects that the user has almost arrived at the door, and when the user arrives at the door, it notifies the access control unit 300 of this.

The access control unit 300 is a component that directly controls the opening and closing of the access door. As described above, the access control unit 200 instructs the access control unit 300 to open the door when it is recognized that the user in proximity is a legitimate user. The access control unit 300 opens the door only when not only the opening instruction from the access control unit 200 but also a user detection notification from the detection unit 400 is received.

In other words, the access control unit 300 is operated when it is determined by the access control unit 200 that the user trying to enter is a legitimate user, and when it is recognized that the user has arrived in front of the door. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the door is opened in advance before the user arrives because the user who is close to the door is a legitimate user.

The access code is always embedded in the terminal when the user is a resident, etc., and when a visitor or delivery person is a user, the smart central server 100 allows only one access by requesting the issuance of an access code at each visit. One-time access code is issued for the purpose of being issued.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a flow of a procedure when ordering online in the mobile-based access management system according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure when ordering online in the present invention.

As shown in Figure 3, in the process of completing the delivery by the orderer placing the order and the delivery person receiving it,

The step of placing an order by the orderer online (S01),

The delivery person receives the order and requests a one-time access code to the smart central server 100 (S02),

The smart central server 100 issuing a one-time access code to the delivery person (S03) and

When the delivery person arrives at the location of the orderer, the access control unit 200 detects the delivery person's terminal and reads the one-time access code (S04);

Step (S05) of the access control unit 200 confirming the validity of the disposable ingress code read from the terminal of the deliverer according to the step S04 to the smart central server 100;

The smart central server 100 transmitting the validity of the disposable access code to the access control unit 200 (S06),

If the legitimacy is recognized in the step (S06), the access control unit 200 instructing the access control unit 300 to open the door (S07),

Step (S08) of the detection unit 400 notifying the arrival of the delivery person to the access control unit 300,

The step of opening the door by the access control unit 300 (S09),

The elevator control unit 500 communicates with the smart central server 100 to call the elevator, and goes through a step (S10) of stopping the elevator at the desired number of floors.

The access code may be valid only once for a user for a one-time visit. This one-time access code can be used for courier delivery, food delivery, and simple visitors. Of course, the app according to the present invention should be pre-installed in their terminals, and therefore, the access management system according to the one-time access code will be useful for users who repeatedly visit the corresponding building.

Let's take a restaurant delivery person as an example. In the case of a restaurant delivery person, in the case of an apartment where the order is contradicted, the app according to the present invention is installed in advance, and when an orderer places an order from the resident of the apartment, the delivery person executes the app and sends the access code to the smart central server 100. Can be requested. The smart central server 100 receives a request for issuance of an access code from a delivery person and issues an access code after confirming its validity. The access code issued in this case is a one-time access code, unlike the access code issued to residents, etc., and once the access is made, the effect is lost and cannot be used anymore.

In other words, when an order is received, an access code is issued for the order, and when delivery is completed (when access is made once), the access code cannot be used anymore. Therefore, when a new order is received, You have to get a new access code again.

When delivery proceeds and arrives at the apartment in the state where the access code is issued, the access control unit 200 detects the access of the delivery person, reads the access code, and queries the smart management server for validity of the access code. As a result, if it is recognized that the corresponding access code has been issued normally, the access control unit 200 sends an open signal to the access control unit 300, and the access control unit 300 receives the arrival notification of the delivery person by the detection unit 400. The door is opened.

In order to avoid the hassle of having to open the door every time the courier or food delivery person enters, apartment dwellers often inform the delivery person of the building access password. However, this behavior is unavoidably carried out in spite of the security risks, as it is less likely to avoid hassle.

Accordingly, the present invention is to improve access-related security in apartment houses and the like, while also promoting convenience in access.

Since the delivery person does not need to call the orderer for access each time delivery is made to an apartment house, etc., convenience is provided to both the orderer and the delivery person, while the delivery person enters freely only once. This is allowed, but for subsequent access, access is allowed only when another order is issued, so that the tenant who is the orderer can secure the security of access.

On the other hand, in the app according to the present invention, when a user who wants to enter and exit repeatedly uses a specific number of floors, the corresponding specific number of floors can be set in advance on the app. In this case, when the user uses an elevator, The elevator automatically stops at the desired number of floors without pressing the button on the floor.

When the user boards the elevator, the smart central server 100 identifies the number of floors previously set by the user through his terminal and transmits it to the elevator control unit 500, and the elevator control unit 500 receives the instruction and corresponds to the elevator. It acts to stop at the number of floors.

If the user is a resident of the building, the user's address, etc. will already be stored in the smart central server 100, so it is necessary to separately manipulate his or her own terminal or elevator to go to the number of floors of the desired floor when entering and exiting. There won't be.

Since the elevator control unit 500 is usually connected to the control server of the apartment house, it is preferable that the smart central server 100 controls the elevator control unit 500 through the control server of the apartment house.

It is not common for tenants to go to floors other than the floor where they live, so if you set the floor where you live in the app, the elevator will automatically stop on the floor where you live, so you can conveniently use the elevator. You will be able to.

Meanwhile, the access control system according to the present invention can be applied to a building for accommodation such as a hotel. In this case, when guests arrive at the hotel, the elevator is automatically called and the elevator is automatically stopped on the floor where they are staying without any other manipulation. Furthermore, it may be impossible to operate the elevator on a floor other than the floor where you are staying. This makes it possible for hotel managers to manage guests more efficiently, and to increase security and stability of the hotel as a whole by preventing guests from moving to other floors.

The elevator control unit 500 also functions to automatically call the elevator to the first floor when the access door is opened and the user enters and exits. The elevator control unit 500 is connected to the smart central server 100, so when the access door is opened by the access control unit 200 and a user enters, the elevator can be moved to the first floor by receiving an instruction from the smart central server 100 at the same time. It will be called.

As a result, the elevator control unit 500 performs two functions of calling the elevator and stopping at the target floor number at the same time according to the instruction of the smart central server 100 (Call & Stop).

Furthermore, when a user solves all tasks on the target floor and wants to go down to the first floor, it is possible to call the elevator by using his or her mobile phone (via an app installed on the mobile phone).

In other words, the delivery person receives an order from the orderer and receives the access code by requesting a one-time access code to the smart central server 100 through his or her smartphone. When the delivery person arrives at the location of the orderer, the access control unit 200 reads the issued disposable access code and goes through a procedure to check its validity through the smart central server 100. As a result, if the legitimacy is recognized, the door is opened to allow access, and the elevator is also automatically called by the elevator control unit 500 at this time.

The elevator control unit 500 receives the instruction from the smart central server 100 and calls the elevator to the first floor, while controlling the elevator so that the elevator stops at the number of floors in which the orderer resides. This makes it possible to secure the security of the old house along with the convenience of access.
