Definitions

  • This invention relates to code responsive logic circuits for operation of lock mechanisms.
  • a further complication in such a system is imposed by the usual necessity of a number of levels of master keys.
  • a maid In a hotel, for example, a maid must be provided with a master key which unlocks rooms she services; for security reasons, however, it is generally desirable to provide her with a master key which opens only the rooms to which she is assigned and no others.
  • a supervisor of maids may be given a higher level master key which opens the rooms assigned to all persons under her supervision.
  • Still higher level master keys may be given to hotel personnel, each for opening all doors in a large section of the hotel in case of fire.
  • a number of electrically controlled systems have been proposed to meet some of the problems mentioned above.
  • the simplest type uses a decoding device mounted adjacent to each door lock which may be pre-set.
  • a binary combination number is set into each device by, for example, simple switches.
  • a user operates a push-button key switch or inserts a card-type key on which a number is binarily encoded. If a comparison between the entered key number and the previously stored combination number finds the numbers equal, the door is unlocked.
  • each door lock may be more easily changed or re-keyed.
  • each door lock must be opened by security personnel as with a mechanical system.
  • Such systems have no provision for various levels of master keys or combinations. Also, since most such systems protect the re-keying switches with a mechanical lock, many of the above problems remain.
  • Another type of electrically controlled system utilizes similar key and decoding hardware, but transmits entered key combinations to a central location where they may be checked by a computer. If the entered combination is a proper one, the lock is opened under computer control.
  • a further type similar to the centrally controlled system described above controls a change in a door combination when a new key is issued.
  • the new combination is transmitted to a door lock memory device as the key is produced.
  • each lock is controlled by a decoding device which includes a resettable memory.
  • the memory is preset with a multi-digit combination.
  • the key number is found to match the combination previously stored in the memory, the lock is opened. If they are found not to match, a comparison is made between the entered authorization number and the previously stored combination. If the comparison finds them equal, the decoding device memory is reset to the entered key number, the first comparison step is repeated and the lock is opened. In this way, the lock is automatically re-keyed without the intervention of skilled workmen.
  • To change a lock combination automatically all that is necessary is to encode a newly issued key with a new key number and also encode the last key number used.
  • Each key encoded according to this invention contains a total of four information fields.
  • the key and authorization fields two level number fields are encoded, one associated with each of the key and authorization fields.
  • the decoding circuit memory Prior to the first use of the lock, the decoding circuit memory is loaded with as many different combination numbers as there are master levels. The level number associated with any particular key number determines which of the previously stored combination numbers the entered key number will be compared against.
  • the level number associated with the entered authorization number determines which of the previously stored combination numbers the authorization will be compared against. Accordingly, if the level numbers associated with the key and authorization numbers are the same, which is the usual case, only the combination number on the same master level as the entered authorization number may be changed. In some instances, however, it is desirable to "cross load" the decoding circuit memory. In such a case, the entered authorization number may be utilized to change a combination on a different level than that assigned to the authorization number; the level number associated with the key number determines the combination to be changed. When "cross loading" is not desired, the key need only carry a single level number.
  • the lock may search its memory for the combination which matches. This provides for a situation where several locks are owned by different people but it is required that a single key open them all. Because each lock owner will allocate the memory's combination levels in his lock according to his own needs, the key used in common among these owners might need to activate the several locks by means of a combination stored in a different level in each lock.
  • the invention provides for a field on the key which will cause the lock to suppress the latch opening function during the operation cycle which re-keys a level. This is useful when a master key is being changed; a visit to each lock will cause the lock to adapt to the new master key but the occupants of the room will not be disturbed. Subsequent use of this key in the adapted locks opens the door normally.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates one form of a Sabsay key, the key utilized to operate lock mechanisms of this invention in its preferred embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is an illustrative diagram showing a key and key reader which operate a latch mechanism through memory and decoding circuits.
  • FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the system that prepares the keys of this invention.
  • FIG. 4 is a block diagram of the invention, illustrating the memory and comparator devices.
  • FIGS. 5 to 8 are logic circuits disclosing the operation of the coded shift register of FIG. 4.
  • a key 100 for use with this invention is shown.
  • the key 100 is made from plastic, of a type and size that may be easily carried and handled.
  • key 100 may contain such matter as printing or pictorial data for use, for example, as advertising.
  • Information may be encoded on card 100 in a variety of ways, such as magnetic spots or colored ink. In the preferred embodiment, information is encoded via punched holes or apertures 101.
  • the key 100 is comprised of three areas 103, 104, 105.
  • the center area 103 contains two data tracks, a "1's" track 107 and a "0's” track 108. Together, the two data tracks contain four binary numbers, as will be discussed below.
  • a single bit in the binary numbers is represented by a perforation in either one of the two tracks with no perforation in the other track. For example, a binary one is represented by a perforation in the "1's" track and no perforation in the opposite position of the "0's” track.
  • a binary zero is represented by the opposite condition.
  • the coding areas 104 at the opposite ends of key 100 will always contain a perforation 110 in line with the "1's" track.
  • the purpose of the perforations in the end areas 104 is to define the "1's" track so that the key may be read from either end.
  • areas 105 contain a perforation 111, for the purpose of defining the beginning end of the binary number. In this way, the key 100 may be inserted into the reader with either side up. Thus, there is no chance that a user can insert his key into a key reader the wrong way.
  • the center coding area 103 contains, in the preferred embodiment, four binary numbers: the key number and associated level number; the authorization number and associated level number.
  • the key number is the binary number that will operate to open its corresponding lock.
  • the authorization number is the binary number which will cause the key number to be loaded into the decoding circuit member, replacing the combination number previously found there.
  • Level numbers determine the master level of both their associated key and authorization numbers. The significance and use of each of these numbers is best understood by reference to FIG. 2 and 3 and the above example of the use of this invention in a large hotel.
  • each door lock is provided with a key reader 114, a memory and decoding circuit 115 and an electrically controlled lock 116.
  • the key 100 is inserted by hand into reader 114. If it contains a key number matching the previously stored combination, memory and decoding circuits 115 cause the lock 116 to open.
  • four binary numbers representing four levels of key and authorization numbers, are stored in the memory and decoding circuit 115. Keys to match at least one of the four numbers are prepared under computer control as shown in FIG. 3.
  • a check-in desk is provided with a keyboard input-output device 120.
  • the room number, request for a new key and level number is entered via the input-output device 120.
  • the computer 121 receives the data and retrieves from its memory 122 the key number previously assigned to the last guest in the same room.
  • the previous key number is transmitted to a key producer 124 which encodes the previous key number as the present authorization number along with the level number entered by the desk clerk.
  • a randomizer 126 a high rate free-running counter, constantly generates changing binary numbers of the desired number of digits and presents them to computer 121 via parallel lines 127.
  • the computer 121 transmits one of the random numbers, along with the selected level number, so the key producer 124 where it is encoded in the new key as the key number.
  • the computer may check the random number against key numbers currently in use.
  • the new key contains, then, a new key number selected completely at random, an authorization number retrieved by the computer which is the prior key number assigned to the same room and two level numbers entered by the clerk.
  • the position bits are encoded in each card by the key producer.
  • the newly prepared key is then presented to the guest.
  • the door lock combination may be changed each time a new guest is checked into a room. In this way, no risk of theft because of previously stolen or retained guest keys is encountered. Each guest may keep his key or discard it, as he wishes. In a different application, a secure industrial area, for example, new keys may be issued periodically or as prudence dictates so as to regularly change the combinations of all locks.
  • a guest loses his key or wishes a duplicate, such keys may be readily produced on the key producer 124.
  • the computer 121 is controlled to retrieve from its memory 122 the key number assigned to the present guest and transmit the appropriate numbers to the key producer. This may be controlled by appropriate software with only the entry of the room number, level number and duplicate key instruction into input-output device 120.
  • a lost key is replaced with a key containing a new random key number as described above.
  • a second master level of key may be used by a maid. If, for example, one maid was assigned to service ten rooms, the memory and decoding circuit would have stored the same combination in the location assigned to the maid's level. Her key, produced by the key producer 124, would remain unchanged as long as it was desirable. If she were to terminate her employment, for example, the ten rooms could be re-keyed at the maid's level by production of a new key. As explained above, the new key would be encoded with a new random key number and the prior key number as its authorization number. Use of the new key in the assigned locks would cause the re-keying of the ten rooms to the new random key number.
  • a higher level key could be produced which would unlock all doors in a floor or wing of the hotel.
  • the only difference between such a key and those described above is that it would be encoded as a different level key and would, thereby, access a different stored combination.
  • a fourth level key could be produced which would access yet a different previously stored combination to open every door in the hotel.
  • levels of master keys could be employed as there are storage locations in the memory and decoding circuit 115.
  • the computer 121 is, in the preferred embodiment, programmed in obvious fashion to store in its memory 122 the present key numbers of all levels of all locks. This information is necessary to enable the locks to be re-keyed. When a new key number is selected from the randomizer 126, it is also stored in the computer's memory 122 as the present key number of the assigned room. A printer 128 is utilized to read out system administration information, as desired.
  • the number of possible different combinations of key numbers determines, of course, the density of information encoded on the key as well as the number of bit storage locations required at each level. Such numbers are, of course, variable and are set by the requirements of the particular application.
  • the key reader 114 will take various forms dependent upon the type of key encoding employed. In the preferred embodiment, which utilizes a perforated key, the key reader is a standard light-photocell arrangement.
  • Signals transmitted from the key reader to the memory and decoding circuits 115 may be in either parallel or serial form.
  • the four binary numbers are loaded into a coded shift register 130 in the usual fashion.
  • the key number from the decoded key is transmitted to a comparator 131 and two identical memory devices 132 and 134 over parallel lines 133.
  • the memory devices 132, 134 are standard units obtainable from the usual suppliers of such items. In the preferred embodiment, standard integrated circuit chips were used. Each is a read and write memory, having as many word storage locations as there are key levels. Each word storage location stores the number of bits which make up the key or authorization numbers. Both memory devices 132, 134 contain the same stored binary numbers.
  • the level number associated with the key number is presented to the word select (read) lines of memory device 132 and the word select (write) lines of both memory devices 132, 134 over parallel lines 136.
  • the level number When the level number is received by memory device 132, it serves as an address, causing the previously stored combination at the designated level to be read out to the comparator 131 over lines 138 after the memory device is enabled by line 141, as occurs when the entire key has been entered.
  • the comparator 131 finds a match between the key number on lines 133 and the previously stored combination on lines 138, the comparator 131 turns on its output line 140. As will be explained below, a "data ready" logic signal is derived which turns on line 141, indicating that the entire key has been entered. Coincidence of the "on" state of the comparator output and the data ready lines, determined by AND gate 142, triggers a high current driver 143. The driver 143, in turn, operates a latch mechanism 144, causing the lock to be opened.
  • the decoded authorization number is transmitted to one side of comparator 148 over parallel lines 149. Its associated level number, which may or may not be the same level number appearing on lines 136, is supplied to the word select (read) lines of memory 134 over lines 150.
  • the memory device is enabled by the data ready line, the stored combination selected by the level number on line 150 is read out to comparator 148 over lines 152. If there is a match, the output line 154 of the comparator is turned on and AND'ed with the data ready line by AND gate 155. Detection of the coincidence turns on line 156 which is a write enable line to the memory devices 132, 134. This causes the new key number on lines 133 to be entered in both memory devices at the locations determined by the level number on lines 136.
  • FIG. 4 Two memory devices are disclosed in FIG. 4. Since each stores the identical combinations, a single memory may be substituted, with the appropriate timing logic, without departing from this invention. Further, two comparators are shown which may, of course, be replaced by a single comparator. Again, appropriate timing logic would be required to present first the key number and then the authorization number to a single comparator.
  • FIGS. 5 through 8 While it is believed that the coded shift register is readily understandable from the above discussion of its operation in FIG. 4, a detailed diagram of its logic circuitry is disclosed in FIGS. 5 through 8.
  • a bi-directional shift register 160 accepts four logic signals and a data input derived from the decoded key.
  • the data input 161 is obtained by the logic circuit of FIG. 8 from the two key data tracks.
  • the shift left input on line 162 and shift right input on line 163, derived by the logic of FIG. 7, determines which end of the shift register will be loaded first. This, in turn, is determined by which end of the key is first inserted into the key reader.
  • the clock input on the fourth input line 164 is on each time a bit is sensed from either track of the key as it is inserted into the key reader.
  • the clock signal is derived by logic of FIG. 8.
  • the final input, a reset signal is supplied on the fifth input line 165.
  • the shift register 160 provides four outputs, the new key number on lines 133, the key level number on lines 136, the authorization number on lines 149 and the authorization level number on lines 150.
  • the shift register is referred to as "coded.” By this is meant that it is not necessary that all bit positions on the key for a single binary number be in adjacent locations in the shift register.
  • the new key number bits may be interspersed on the key with authorization number bits.
  • the interspersal scheme is allowed for by the appropriate connection of output lines to the shift register output points. Such interspersal of number bits will aid the maintenance of security of the system by greatly increasing the difficulty of unauthorized production of keys.
  • the data ready signal line is turned on when the entire key has been read, the shift register is loaded and a comparison is to be made.
  • the data ready signal, and other internal logic signals are derived by the logic circuit disclosed in FIG. 6.
  • State 0 is defined as the reset state of the circuit. Accordingly, state 0 lines 170, 171 are on before the key is first inserted into the key reader. The output line 172 of AND gate 173 is off, however, since no other inputs are present.
  • a clock pulse is derived when each bit on a card is sensed. Accordingly, when the key is first inserted, the first bit will cause clock line 174 of FIG. 6 to turn on.
  • AND gate 173 senses the coincidence between the previously existing state 0 and the first clock pulse, and pulses the counter 175 via OR gate 176 and counter input line 177.
  • AND gate 181 senses the coincidence of state 1 and the next clock pulse, and again pulses the counter 175 through OR gate 176 and the counter input line 177.
  • the counter causes binary to decimal decoder 179 to turn the state 1 line 180 off and turn the state 2 line 185 on.
  • AND gate 188 has, then one input, the state 2 line 186, in an on condition.
  • the second input, key-in, on line 187 indicates that the key has been fully read. Accordingly, the circuit of FIG. 6 remains in state 2 during the rest of the key insertion time.
  • AND 188 gate pulses the counter 175, which in turn causes the binary decoder 179 to turn the state 2 line 185 off and turn on the data ready line 190.
  • the memory circuits are then enabled and the comparison read enable lines steps begin. The circuit remains in this condition until it is reset via reset line 191.
  • the logic of FIG. 7 determines whether the shift register 160 (FIG. 5) will load from the right or left side, depending upon which end of the key is first inserted into the key reader.
  • Flip flop 195 is a standard J-K flip flop having one input grounded via line 196. The second input is the AND'ed result of the signals on the data line input 197 and the state 1 input line 198. If the data line does not turn on during state 1 time, shift right line 200 is turned on. If the data line turns on during state 1 time, the coincidence is detected in AND gate 202 which causes the shift left line 201 to be turned on, controlling the loading of the following data through the left end of the shift register. As explained above, the purpose of this is to allow insertion of either end of the key in the key reader.
  • the data, clock, key-in and reset signals are derived, in the preferred embodiment, by the logic of FIG. 8.
  • Each key has, in the preferred embodiment, two data tracks.
  • multivibrator 207 is pulsed via OR gate 208 and line 209.
  • a clock pulse on output line 210 is, accordingly, produced during every sensed bit time.
  • the two data track signals each are supplied as one input to two AND gates 211, 212.
  • the output of the two AND gates are OR'ed to form the data signal.
  • Which AND gate is enabled, to provide the data signal is determined by the first pulse sensed (110, FIG. 1) which identifies the "1's" data track. This is, of course, determined by the way the key is inserted into the key reader.
  • a flip flop 215 provides the controlling inputs to the two AND gates via its true and complement output lines 216, 217. Which of the AND gates is enabled is determined by the coincidence, or lack thereof, of a bit signal on line 205 during state 0 time when state 0 line 221 is turned on. This coincidence is sensed by AND gate 240. If a bit is sensed during this time (from perforations 110), line 216 is turned on and the bit signals on track 1 line 205 become the data signal. If no such coincidence is detected, line 217 remains on and the signals on track 2 line 206 become the data signal. OR gate 241 receives the selected track signals to deliver the data signals.
  • Each received data bit on either track is applied to retriggerable monostable multivibrator 225 via OR gate 208 and line 209.
  • AND gate 226 is turned on, generating a reset signal on line 227, when no bits are received on either data line.
  • the reset inverse signal is developed therefrom in usual fashion.
  • NOR gate 230 generates an output on line 231 only when its three inputs are off.
  • a multivibrator 232 is turned on, supplying the key-in signal, when NOR output line is turned on.
