Description

TECHNICAL AREA

[0001] The technology presented here relates to an administrative technique for managing information for tenant management. STATE OF THE ART

[0002] For example, patent literature 1 discloses that a tenant can change the setting of a usage plan or similar for equipment intended for each tenant.Specifically, patent literature 1 describes that “by requesting a display of a fee status of a specific fee from a tenant terminal device provided by the building management, which can switch the air conditioning and lighting system on and off for each tenant, schedule the reservation of operation, the reservation of extension and the setting of temperature, a current usage accumulation value (current value) of an object that corresponds to the request is read, and from the read current value and a previous total usage quantity (previous meter reading value) read from a usage quantity management file that stores the data at the time of the previous fee billing, a usage quantity and a usage fee are output from a specified date and time up to the time the request occurs to the tenant terminal device.”

[0003] Patent literature 2 discloses a billing system for the maintenance and administration costs of an elevator, designed to fairly calculate these costs according to the usage share of each user. The system includes user specification tools for identifying elevator users, tools for determining the individual usage factor for each user, and a billing tool that proportionally distributes and invoices the elevator's maintenance and administration costs according to the determined usage factors.

[0004] Patent literature 3 describes a blockchain-based method and device for determining proportional elevator costs and a corresponding blockchain network. The method involves capturing elevator usage data from a blockchain within a cost statistics period. Based on this data, both the overall operating data of the elevator and the operating data specific to each floor are generated for the relevant period. Subsequently, the total maintenance costs of the elevator for this period are determined using the overall operating data and a predefined calculation method for maintenance costs. Finally, based on the floor-specific operating data and the calculated total costs, the proportional elevator costs for each household during the period under consideration are determined.

[0005] Patent literature 4 describes a computer system for conducting a business process for leased elevators. An elevator leased and installed by the building owner is made available to a user responsible for the tenants. The elevator usage on each floor, recorded over a specified period, is evaluated, and a usage fee is calculated based on a fixed unit price. This fee is then invoiced to the tenant using the respective floor as office space.

[0010] To explain the present invention in more detail, embodiments for the implementation of the present disclosure are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. First embodiment.

[0011] Fig. Figure 1 is a representation showing an administrative device 100 according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure and an administrative system 1 with the administrative device 100.

[0012] Fig. Figure 2 is a representation that provides an example of a database contained in a database unit 30 according to the present disclosure.

[0013] Management System 1 is a system for managing hiring information related to the use of a facility.

[0014] Management System 1 is a system that manages information about devices used by facility users such as a facility tenant, a distribution company that handles distribution within the facility, a facility employee, and a facility visitor.

[0015] Conventional technology lacks a mechanism that allows a building's elevator to be set to operating mode from a terminal device by a building user, such as a tenant. Therefore, each of the following embodiments describes an example where the elevator's operating mode is set by a request from the building user via the terminal device.

[0016] The in Fig. The management system 1 shown in the present disclosure comprises a first terminal device 10, a second terminal device 20, a database unit 30, a management device 100, an operating control unit 40, and a control target equipment 50. However, the management system 1 of the present disclosure need only include at least the management device 100, and one or more of the configurations that are not the management device 100 may be an external device.

[0017] The first terminal 10 is a terminal belonging to a requester (also called a facility user) who is making a request to the management device.

[0018] The first terminal 10 displays an image so that the user, who is the requester, can select or enter the content of the request.

[0019] The first terminal device 10 is configured to transmit the content of a request to the management device 100, which the user, who is a requester, wishes to request.

[0020] The first terminal 10, for example, is a terminal loaned by a facility manager for each user, and encompasses a large number of terminals in a case where there are many users in the same facility. In this case, the majority of the first terminal 10 have user identification information that can be used to identify at least each user.

[0021] It should be noted that the first terminal 10 may be equipped with request software to implement the above-mentioned functions.

[0022] The first terminal device in a case where the requester is a tenant is described.

[0023] The first terminal device, number 10, is a terminal device for a tenant.

[0024] The first terminal 10 displays an image so that the content of the request can be selected or entered.

[0025] The first terminal device 10 is set up to transmit the content of the request that the tenant wishes to make to the administrative device 100.

[0026] The first terminal 10, for example, is a terminal loaned by a facility manager for each tenant, and encompasses a multitude of terminals in a case where a multitude of tenants reside in the same facility. In this case, the majority of the first terminal 10 possess user identification information that can be identified for at least each tenant.

[0027] The second terminal, number 20, is for a facility manager. The facility manager manages the facility and is the person who bills users and collects the billed payments. If the user is a tenant, the facility manager can be one who receives the rent directly from the tenant, or one who receives the rent from the tenant as an administrative service. The facility manager can also be the owner of the facility.

[0028] The second terminal 20 indicates whether the content of the request from the first terminal 10 (a terminal of a facility user, e.g. a tenant) should be approved in a selectable or input-enabled manner.

[0029] Furthermore, the second terminal 20 presents the data stored in the database unit 30 with reference to the database unit 30 in response to a presentation request by the operator of the second terminal 20.

[0030] It should be noted that the second terminal 20 may be equipped with request software to implement the aforementioned functions.

[0031] Database unit 30 stores data that is used for processing in management device 100.

[0032] In addition, the database unit stores 30 data points that are used to control the elevator.

[0033] The database contained in database unit 30 is described below.

[0034] Database unit 30 includes, for example, an authorization management database 31, a database for the elevator operating settings database 32, a safety equipment operation management database 33, a rental database for calculation 34, a query history database 35, a rental database 36, a database for the operating status 37, and similar items, as described in Fig. 2 shown.

[0035] It should be noted that the in Fig. 2 The database unit shown contains 30 databases other than the database used in the management device 100 of the first embodiment.

[0036] The authorization management database 31 is a database that stores information for managing user authorizations. It records whether authorization is granted or revoked for a given user. The database links data such as user identification information, information about the type of request, and information about the presence or absence of authorization.

[0037] User identification information includes a username, user number, output destination information, and similar details. The output destination information specifies, for example, an end device (first end device) owned or possessed by the user.

[0038] The information regarding the type of request includes terms like "Operational Setting," "Safety Equipment Operational Setting," "Power Setting," and similar. It should be noted that information about the update type is not strictly necessary, as long as it is, for example, simply "Operational Setting."

[0039] If the user is a tenant, the authorization management database 31 is a database that stores information for managing the tenant's authorization. The authorization management database 31 records whether authorization is granted to or returned to the respective tenant. Data such as tenant identification data, information about the type of request, and information about the presence or absence of the authority are stored in the authorization management database 31.

[0040] The tenant identification information includes a tenant's name, tenant number, and the like.

[0041] The elevator operating settings database 32 stores operating settings information about the operation of the individual elevators in the facility.

[0042] The elevator operating settings database 32 contains data such as elevator identification information and operating settings information.

[0043] The elevator identification information includes, for example, an elevator number for each elevator car in the elevator and a bank number for each group of destination floors.

[0044] The operational cessation information includes an operational date, an operational time, a holding floor, a type of use, and information about the requester (if the requester is a tenant, it is also referred to as "requesting tenant information").

[0045] The operating date is a planned operating date.

[0046] The operating hours are, for example, a period such as "from 8:00 am to 10:00 am", "from 10:00 am to PM 12:00 pm" and "from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm".

[0047] The stopping level indicates the floor on which the elevator is scheduled to stop in the facility.

[0048] The usage mode specifies a type of use, such as dedicated, floor control, priority use, general use, and non-use. Dedicated is a usage mode where only a specific facility user can use a particular elevator. Floor control is a usage mode where a specific elevator car can only stop on a specific floor. Priority use is a usage mode where the stopping efficiency, which indicates a stopping ratio, is higher than in general use.

[0049] The requester information is user identification information that identifies the user who submitted the business cessation request, specifically a username, user number, or similar identifier. This includes, in particular, a tenant name, tenant number, company name of a sales company, moving company, and the like, a company identification number, and an employee title and name. If the requester is a tenant, the requester information is tenant request information. Tenant request information includes a tenant name, tenant number, or similar identifier that identifies the tenant who submitted the business cessation request.

[0050] It should be noted that the elevator operating settings database can contain explanatory information about the elevator for each elevator. This explanatory information includes, for example, information describing the size of the elevator car, such as 24 passengers, 10 passengers, 6 passengers, large, medium, and small.

[0051] The Safety Equipment Operation Management Database 33 stores operational setting information for each piece of safety equipment that pertains to the operation of the safety equipment present in the facility. Hereinafter, this operational setting information is also referred to as "Safety Equipment Operational Setting Information" to distinguish it from the elevator operation setting information.

[0052] The safety device is, for example, a safety gate that is provided for each floor or each area subdivided within each floor.

[0053] In the safety equipment operation management database 33, data such as identification information for the safety equipment and operating settings information for the safety equipment are linked.

[0054] The information used to identify the safety equipment is a safety equipment number or similar identifier that can be used to identify each piece of safety equipment.

[0055] The operational information for the safety equipment includes an operational date, an operational time, an installation position, a form of use and information about the requester (request tenant information).

[0056] The operating date, operating time and the requester (requesting tenant) correspond to the operating settings information of the elevator described above.

[0057] The installation position is one level (1st floor, 2nd floor, 3rd floor...) where the safety equipment is installed in the facility, one position for each area used by the requester in the facility, one position for each tenant, and so on.

[0058] The form of use refers to a form such as use or non-use.

[0059] The requester information consists of user identification information that identifies the user who submitted the shutdown request, specifically a username, user number, or similar identifier. This includes, in particular, a tenant name, tenant number, company name of a sales company, moving company, and the like, a company identification number, and an employee title and name. If the requester is a tenant, the requester information is tenant request information. Tenant request information consists of a tenant name and tenant number that identify the tenant for whom the shutdown of the security equipment was carried out.

[0060] The rental database for calculation 34 contains information for calculating rent based on the elevator's operating status or the safety equipment's operating status. Specifically, in a case where the requesting user is a tenant, the rental database for calculation 34 provides information indicating an increase or decrease in rent based on the request authorization, priority use or non-use of the elevator, the elevator's occupancy rate, the use or non-use of the safety equipment, and similar factors. This applies to the rent charged to a tenant without request authorization and in a case of normal elevator use.

[0061] If the requester is someone other than the tenant, the rent is the fee amount.

[0062] If the fee calculation is separate from the rent, the rent database can be used for calculating fees (see 34). Fig. 7), which will be described later.

[0063] The request history database 35 stores historical information about the content of a requester's requests, such as those of a tenant. Request history database 35 links the date and time of the request, user identification information (tenant identification information), request content information, information about the content of the request, and similar data. The date and time of the request indicate the date and time the request was submitted. The details of the user identification information (tenant identification information) are similar to those described above. The requester information corresponds to the requester information described above. The request content information contains details about the requested content.

[0064] The rent determined for each tenant is stored in the rent database 36.

[0065] In the rental database 36, data such as tenant identification information and the rent are linked together.

[0066] If the requester is someone other than the tenant, the rental data can be calculated in rental database 36. This means that rental database 36 can also be a fee database (see Fig. 7).

[0067] The operating status database 37 stores operating status information that displays the current operating status of the elevator.

[0068] The operational status database 37 links data such as elevator identification information, a current position of the elevator, a speed of the elevator and a direction of movement of the elevator.

[0069] The operating status information is updated each time by information from the operating control unit 40, which controls the operation of the elevator.

[0070] The operating control unit 40 controls the operation of the control target equipment 50.

[0071] The control target equipment 50 is, for example, an elevator installed in a building that is rented to a tenant, an elevator that is distributed throughout the building, or the like.

[0072] An elevator is, for example, a lift with a lift cabin or an escalator.

[0073] In particular, the operating control unit 40 refers to the elevator operating settings database 32 and controls the operation of the elevator using the elevator identification information, the operating settings information, and the date and time information.

[0074] The management device 100 manages information about the equipment used by a tenant of the facility.

[0075] The management device 100 is communicatively connected to the first terminal 10, the second terminal 20, the database unit 30 and the operating control unit 40.

[0076] A configuration of the management device 100 is described.

[0077] The in Fig. 1 The management device 100 shown comprises a first communication unit 110, a first presentation information generation unit 111, a request reception unit 112, an approval confirmation unit 120, a second presentation information generation unit 121, a second communication unit 122, an authorization management unit 130, a control management unit 140, a control unit (not shown) and the like.

[0078] The control unit (not shown) takes over the overall control of the management device 100. For example, it activates and stops the management device 100.

[0079] The first communication unit 110 sends and receives information between the management device 100 and the first terminal device 10.

[0080] The first presentation information generation unit 111 generates presentation information that displays information to be presented to the first terminal device 10 (terminal device for facility users including tenants).

[0081] The first presentation information generation unit 111 generates presentation information, including an operating settings screen. The first presentation information generation unit 111 generates an operating settings screen for each requester, corresponding to the authorization held by the requester (including tenants. Hereinafter, the term "requester" also includes a tenant).

[0082] Specifically, when receiving a presentation request with the requester's authorization information (tenant identification information) from the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110, the first presentation information generation unit 111 refers to the database unit 30, checks the requester's authorization and then acquires the operating settings information to generate the operating settings image.

[0083] The operating settings image, for example, is an image for setting up elevator operation, which is to be presented to the first terminal 10. Specifically, it is an image containing elements that correspond to the requester's request authorization and are presented in a selectable or inputtable manner, including elevator identification information (elevator number, bank number, etc.), a level number to identify each floor in the facility, an operating date, an operating time, a stopping floor, a usage form, etc. When the image is held in the request at the first terminal 10, the first presentation information generation unit 111 can generate and output presentation information (presentation command information) to issue a command to display the image in the request.

[0084] The request receiving unit 112 receives a request from the first terminal 10.

[0085] In particular, the request reception unit 112 receives from the first terminal device 10, which is a terminal device for a facility user who is a requester, an authorization request to apply for authorization to perform an operational setting with respect to an elevator present in the facility, or an operational setting request that contains content relating to the operational setting of the elevator present in the facility.

[0086] The approval confirmation unit 120 confirms to the second terminal 20 whether the request from the first terminal 10 should be approved.

[0087] Specifically, the approval confirmation unit 120 confirms to the second terminal 20, which is a terminal for a facility manager, whether the authorization request received from the request receiving unit 112 should be approved or not.

[0088] The second presentation information generation unit 121 generates presentation information that displays information to be presented to the second terminal 20 (terminal for facility manager).

[0089] The second presentation information generation unit 121 generates presentation information including an operating settings image that displays the operating settings for all elevators for each facility.

[0090] When the presentation request for the operational settings screen is received from the second terminal 20 via the second communication unit 122, the second presentation information generation unit 121 refers specifically to the database unit 30 and acquires all parts of the operational settings information for each facility in order to generate the operational settings screen. The operational settings screen includes, for example, a screen that enables the operational settings for all time periods and all banks (all elevators).

[0091] The operating settings screen generated by the second presentation information generation unit 121 is, for example, a screen that enables an operation such as resetting all operating settings to the default settings.

[0092] If the image in the request is held in the second terminal 20, the second presentation information generation unit 121 can generate and output presentation information (presentation command information) to give a command to display the image in the request.

[0093] The second communication unit 122 sends and receives information between the management device 100 and the second terminal device 20.

[0094] The authorization management unit 130 manages the authorization requested or authorization revocation by the first terminal 10.

[0095] Specifically, the authorization management unit 130 is the unit that manages the authorization for the shutdown request to the first terminal 10. When the approval confirmation unit 120 receives approval information indicating that the second terminal 20 has approved the authorization request of the first terminal 10, the authorization management unit grants the authorization to the first terminal 10 that requested it. Furthermore, the authorization management unit 130 revokes the authorization for the first terminal 10 in response to the authorization revocation request.

[0096] More specifically, the authorization management unit 130 manages the authorization by changing the authorization presence / absence information in the authorization management database 31 from "absent" to "present" to grant the authorization, and changing the authorization presence / absence information from "present" to "absent" to release the authorization.

[0097] When authorization is granted to the first terminal 10, the control management unit 140 changes the setting regarding the operation of the elevator based on the operating setting request received by the request receiving unit 112 from the first terminal 10.

[0098] In particular, when the request receiving unit 112 receives the operational setting request from the first terminal 10, the control management unit 140 updates the operational setting database based on the operational setting content specified in the operational setting request.

[0099] In the Fig. In the administrative device 100 shown, the first communication unit and the second communication unit are shown separately, but the first communication unit and the second communication unit can be configured by one communication unit.

[0100] Although the first presentation information generation unit 111 and the second presentation information generation unit 121 are in the management device 100 in Fig. Since the first presentation information generation unit 111 and the second presentation information generation unit 121 are shown separately, they can be configured by a single presentation information generation unit. In this case, one presentation information generation unit generates presentation information for the first terminal 10 or presentation information for the second terminal 20.

[0101] The operations carried out by the administrative device 100 in accordance with the present disclosure are described.

[0102] First, the processing of authorization changes in accordance with the present disclosure is described.

[0103] Fig. Figure 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing of authorization changes in the administrative device 100 according to the present disclosure.

[0104] For example, if a change of authorization is requested on the first endpoint 10, the management device 100 starts the process in Fig. 3. Processing shown.

[0105] The request reception unit 112 performs the processing of the received request (step ST10).

[0106] Specifically, the request reception unit 112 receives the authorization request from the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110 and checks the content of the authorization request. The request reception unit 112 acquires the requester identification information (tenant identification information) contained in the authorization request. Furthermore, the request reception unit 112 determines whether the request is a request for approval or a request to return the authorization.

[0107] In the event of an authorization request, the request receiving unit 112 communicates the authorization request, along with the requester's identification information (tenant identification information), to the approval confirmation unit 120.

[0108] If the request is for a return of authorization, the request receiving unit 112 forwards the authorization request, along with the requester's identification information (tenant identification information), to the approval confirmation unit 120. If the request is for a return of authorization, the request receiving unit 112 forwards the authorization request, along with the requester's identification information (tenant identification information), to the authorization management unit 130.

[0109] The approval confirmation unit 120 performs the processing of the approval confirmation (step ST20).

[0110] The approval confirmation unit 120 confirms to the second terminal device 20, which is a terminal device for a facility manager, whether the authorization request received by the request reception unit 112 is approved or not. Specifically, the approval confirmation unit 120 outputs the request information for the authorization request, along with the requester's identification information (tenant identification information), to the second terminal device 20 via the second presentation information generation unit 121 and the second communication unit 122.

[0111] The second terminal 20 then displays a screen for approving the authorization request. When the facility manager interacts with the screen of the second terminal 20, a release signal is sent to the management device 100, indicating that the release has been granted.

[0112] The approval confirmation unit 120 determines whether the facility manager has approved the request from the first terminal 10 (terminal for a facility user such as a tenant) (step ST30).

[0113] In particular, the approval confirmation unit 120 waits for a response from the second terminal 20, and when it receives the approval information from the second terminal 20, it determines that the facility manager has approved and informs the authorization management unit 130 that the authorization request has been approved.

[0114] On the other hand, if the Approval Confirmation Unit 120 receives the non-approval information indicating a non-approval, or, for example, in a case where the approval information was not received within a predetermined constant time, the Approval Confirmation Unit determines that the facility manager has not approved (step ST30 "NO") and notifies the Request Receiving Unit 112 of the non-approval. In this case, the Request Receiving Unit 112, via the first Presentation Information Generation Unit 111 and the first Communication Unit 110, issues the information that the authorization request was not approved to the first terminal device 10. After that, the process ends in Fig. 3. Processing shown.

[0115] If the Approval Confirmation Unit 120 determines in step ST30 that the facility manager has granted approval (step ST30 "YES"), the Authorization Management Unit 130 processes the authorization change (step ST40). Specifically, upon receiving notification of the authorization request from the Approval Confirmation Unit 120, the Authorization Management Unit 130 updates the Authorization Management Database 31 according to the content of the authorization request.

[0116] In accordance with the content of the authorization request, the authorization management unit 130 changes the authorization presence / absence information in the authorization management database 31 from "absent" to "present" to grant the authorization, and changes the authorization presence / absence information from "present" to "absent" to release the authorization.

[0117] Then the [event] ends in Fig. 3. Processing shown.

[0118] In this way, authorization is granted to the requester (facility user including a tenant) or authorization is returned by the requester.

[0119] Next, the processing of the operational settings according to the present disclosure will be described.

[0120] Fig. Figure 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing of the operating settings in the management device 100 according to the present disclosure.

[0121] After receiving a signal requesting the operating settings from the first terminal device 10, the management device 100 begins the process described in Fig. 4 processing shown.

[0122] The request reception unit 112 performs the processing of the request reception (step ST110).

[0123] In particular, the request reception unit 112 receives the request to cease operations.

[0124] The request receiving unit 112 determines whether the requester (facility user including tenant) has authorization for the shutdown request (step ST120).

[0125] In particular, the request reception unit 112 refers to the authorization management database 31 using the tenant identification information and the business cessation information contained in the business cessation request and determines whether authorization is granted.

[0126] If the request receiving unit 112 determines that the requester is not authorized (step ST120 "NO"), the process ends in Fig. The process is described in section 4. In this case, proof is provided before the end of the processing that the requester does not have the authorization to carry out the hiring.

[0127] If the request reception unit 112 determines that the requester has authorization (step ST120 “YES”), the control management unit 140 processes the setting changes (step ST130).

[0128] In particular, the control management unit 140 updates the elevator operating settings database 32 of the elevator using the user identification information (tenant identification information) and the operating settings information included in the operating settings request.

[0129] At this time, the update history database can also be updated.

[0130] When the control management unit 140 updates the elevator operating settings database 32, the [unclear] ends in Fig. 4 processing shown.

[0131] In this way, the operating setting is changed by the request via the first terminal device 10.

[0132] According to the first embodiment, it is possible to perform the operational setting, which relates to the operation of the equipment provided in the facility (e.g. the elevator), from the first terminal device 10, which is the terminal device for the facility user including the tenant.

[0133] According to the first embodiment, the content of the operational setting request made by the facility user, including the tenant, can be presented to the facility manager via the second terminal 20.

[0134] Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, if the authorization to submit a request is granted to the facility user, including the tenant, the shutdown of the elevator and the like within the area of ​​the granted authorization to submit a request can also be carried out if the facility manager cannot process the request (e.g., outside of business hours), which is advantageous for both the facility user, including the tenant, and the facility manager.

[0135] Furthermore, in the configuration according to the first embodiment, it is possible, in response to a request from the first terminal 10, which is an terminal for a facility user including a tenant, to manage the authorization of the facility user including the tenant regarding the operating settings of shared equipment such as the elevator in the facility. In other words, the facility user, including the tenant, can change the operating settings of the equipment in the facility via the first terminal 10. Moreover, the facility manager can offer the facility user, including the tenant, a new service: the ability to adjust the operating settings of the equipment in the facility.

[0136] An administrative device according to the present disclosure is an administrative device that manages information relating to the equipment used by facility users, and the administrative device is configured to include: a request receiving unit that receives from a first terminal, which is a facility user terminal, an authorization request to request authorization to perform an operational setting with respect to an elevator provided in the facility, or an operational setting request that includes content relating to the operational setting of the elevator provided in the facility; an approval confirmation unit that confirms to a second terminal, which is a facility manager terminal, whether or not the authorization request received from the request receiving unit 112 should be approved;an authorization confirmation unit that manages authorization of the operational shutdown request to the first terminal, wherein, when the authorization confirmation unit receives authorization information indicating that the authorization request has been approved by the second terminal, the authorization management unit grants authorization to the first terminal that requested the authorization; and a control management unit that, when authorization of the operational shutdown request has been granted to the first terminal, modifies a setting relating to the operation of the elevator based on the operational shutdown request received by the request receiving unit from the first terminal.

[0137] This makes it possible, even in situations where the tenant's usage pattern differs, to provide an administrative device that allows the tenant to change the setting from their terminal device in a way that is suitable for their usage pattern.

[0138] An administrative system according to the present disclosure is an administrative system comprising: a first terminal, which is an endpoint for facility users; a second terminal, which is an endpoint for a facility manager; and an administrative device capable of communicating with the first terminal and the second terminal, and managing information relating to the equipment used by facility users, and the administrative device is configured to include: a request receiving unit that receives from the first terminal an authorization request to request authorization to perform an operational shutdown with respect to an elevator provided in the facility, or an operational shutdown request including the content of the operational shutdown of the elevator provided in the facility;an authorization confirmation unit that confirms to the second terminal whether the authorization request received from the request receiving unit is to be authorized or not; an authorization confirmation unit that manages authorization of the shutdown request to the first terminal, wherein, when the authorization confirmation unit receives authorization information indicating that the authorization request has been authorized by the second terminal, the authorization management unit grants authorization to the first terminal that requested the authorization; and a control management unit that, when authorization of the shutdown request has been granted to the first terminal, modifies a setting relating to the operation of the elevator based on the shutdown request received by the request receiving unit from the first terminal.

[0139] Therefore, even in a situation where the usage pattern of the facility user differs, it is possible to provide an administration system that allows the facility user to change settings suitable for their usage pattern from their terminal device.

[0140] An administrative procedure according to the present disclosure is an administrative procedure for managing information relating to equipment used by facility users, and the administrative procedure is designed to include: a request reception step for receiving, by a request reception unit, from a first terminal device that is a facility user terminal device, an authorization request to request authorization to make an operational setting with respect to an elevator provided in the facility, or an operational setting request that includes content relating to the operational setting of the elevator provided in the facility; an approval confirmation step for confirming, by an approval confirmation unit, to a second terminal device that is a facility manager terminal device, whether or not the authorization request received by the request reception unit should be approved;an authorization confirmation step for managing an authorization of the operational shutdown request for the first terminal by an authorization management unit, wherein the authorization management step is configured such that, when the authorization confirmation unit receives authorization information indicating the authorization of the authorization request from the second terminal, it grants authorization to the first terminal that requested the authorization; and a control management step for changing a setting relating to the operation of the elevator, based on the operational shutdown request received by the request receiving unit 112 from the first terminal, by a control management unit when authorization to request operational shutdown is granted for the first terminal.

[0141] Consequently, even in a situation where the usage pattern of the facility user differs, it is possible to provide an administrative procedure that allows a change in the setting that is suitable for the facility user's usage pattern from the terminal device for the facility user. Second embodiment.

[0142] In the first embodiment, an embodiment was described in which the authorization of a requester with respect to the operational setting of devices in an end device is managed in response to a request from the first end device 10, which is an end device for an institution user such as a requester.

[0143] The second embodiment is one in which the requester, who is a facility user such as a tenant, is presented with fee information about a fee amount such as rent according to a business closure.

[0144] The second embodiment includes the configuration already described in the first embodiment, in order to illustrate an embodiment in which an additional function is added to the first embodiment. In the second embodiment, the description of the configuration already described in the first embodiment is expediently omitted.

[0145] Fig. Figure 5 is a representation showing a first configuration example of an administrative device 100A according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure and an administrative system 1A with the administrative device.

[0146] Fig. Figure 6 is a representation showing a second configuration example of the management device 100A according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure and of the management system 1A including the management device.

[0147] Fig. Figure 7 is a representation that provides a second example of a database contained in the database unit according to the present disclosure.

[0148] The management system 1A is set up to include a first terminal 10, a second terminal 20, a database unit 30, an operating control unit 40, a control target equipment 50 and an administration device 100A.

[0149] The first terminal 10, the second terminal 20, the database unit 30, the operating control unit 40, and the control target equipment 50 each have a similar configuration as in Fig. 1 is shown, so a detailed description is unnecessary here.

[0150] One in Fig. 7. Database unit 30A shown comprises a fee amount database for calculation 34A and a fee database 36A.

[0151] The Fee Calculation Database 34A contains information for calculating a fee amount based on the elevator's operating status or the safety equipment's operating status. Specifically, the Fee Calculation Database 34A includes information indicating an increase or decrease in the fee amount based on the requester's authorization, priority use or non-use of the elevator, the elevator's occupancy rate, the use or non-use of the safety devices, and similar factors. This calculation is based on the fee amount for an unauthorized user and in the case of normal elevator use. Furthermore, the Fee Calculation Database 34A provides information indicating a reference fee amount per unit of time, specific to the elevator type.

[0152] The fee database 36A stores fee information relating to a fee amount that has been set for each user who is a requester.

[0153] The fee database 36A links data such as user identification information and a fee amount.

[0154] The management device 100A comprises a first communication unit 110, a first presentation information generation unit 111A, a request reception unit 112, an approval confirmation unit 120, a second presentation information generation unit 121, a second communication unit 122, an authorization management unit 130, a control management unit 140, a traffic volume calculation unit 150, a rent calculation unit 151 (alternatively the fee amount calculation unit 151'), a control unit (not shown) and the like.

[0155] This means that the administrative device 100A, compared to the one in Fig. The administrative device 100 shown in Figure 1 also includes a traffic volume calculation unit 150 and a rent calculation unit 151 (alternatively: the fee amount calculation unit 151').

[0156] The control unit (not shown) takes over the overall control of the management device 100A. For example, it activates and stops the management device 100.

[0157] Each of the first communication unit 110, the request reception unit 112, the approval confirmation unit 120, the second presentation information generation unit 121, the second communication unit 122, the authorization management unit 130, and the control management unit 140 has a configuration that corresponds to the one described in Fig. The configuration shown is similar to the one in 1, and a detailed description of it is omitted here.

[0158] The traffic volume calculation unit 150 refers to the elevator operating settings database 32, which stores operating settings information that specifies the settings for the operation of each elevator, and calculates the traffic volume of the elevator.

[0159] The traffic volume of the elevator car can be calculated in units of the operating setting using data from the elevator operating setting database 32.

[0160] The elevator's traffic volume is represented by the number of people that can be transported, for example, by each elevator for each date and time (period). The traffic volume has a high numerical value for a large elevator car and a low numerical value for a small elevator car. Furthermore, when the "priority use" mode is selected, transport efficiency increases, and thus the traffic volume value also increases.

[0161] The rental calculation unit 151 calculates a rent or administrative costs for each requester (tenant) based on the traffic volume calculated by the traffic volume calculation unit 150.

[0162] Specifically, the rent calculation unit 151 calculates the rent by increasing or decreasing only the rent amount (increase / decrease target rent) in a ratio that is determined for each tenant in the tenant's total rent according to the traffic efficiency for each tenant based on the traffic volume.

[0163] Alternatively, the rent calculation unit 151 calculates the administrative costs by increasing or decreasing only the administrative costs (increase / decrease of the target administrative costs) in a ratio determined for each tenant to the tenant's total administrative costs according to the traffic efficiency for each tenant based on the traffic volume.

[0164] If the requester is a different facility user than the tenant, the rent calculation unit 151 is replaced by a fee amount calculation unit 151'.

[0165] The fee calculation unit 151' calculates the fee amount for each requester (facility user including a tenant) based on the traffic volume calculated by the traffic volume calculation unit 150.

[0166] Specifically, the fee calculation unit 151' calculates the fee amount according to transport efficiency for each requester based on traffic volume. The fee calculation unit 151' can include the configuration of the rental calculation unit 151.

[0167] Transport efficiency is, for example, a ratio between the traffic volume based on the current shutdown of the elevator and the traffic volume that is expected to increase or decrease as a result of the shutdown.

[0168] The target rent increase / decrease ratio is a ratio determined for each requester, such as an institution, a tenant, or a requesting company. The setting depends, for example, on whether the institution occupies an upper, middle, or lower level. It also depends on whether the requester is a tenant located within the institution or an external company. Furthermore, the ratio is adjusted based on factors such as the high, medium, or low elevator usage frequency, which is predetermined for each requester. If the requester is an external company, it can be assumed that the usage is by a third party and is not included in the calculation of the traffic volume on the institution's side.If the requesting party is an external company, the ratio between the target fee for the increase and the target fee for the decrease can be set high, regardless of the frequency of use.

[0169] The ratio of the increase / decrease target is stored, for example, in the rent database 36 or the fee database 36A.

[0170] A specific example is described.

[0171] An example is described where the ratio between the traffic volume resulting from the current shutdown of the elevator and the traffic volume expected to increase or decrease due to the shutdown is 150% compared to the current time.

[0172] The ratio of the target fee for the increase / decrease is set at 1 / 4 (25%) in relation to the total fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs).

[0173] In this case, the fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs) increases by 150% from 1 / 4 (25%) of the fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs), and the fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs) increases by 12.5% ​​(0.25 * 1.50 + 0.75 = 1.125) from the current fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs).

[0174] An example is described where the ratio between the traffic volume resulting from the current shutdown of the elevator and the traffic volume expected to increase or decrease due to the request from the external company is 70% compared to the current time.

[0175] The ratio of the target cost increase / decrease is set at 1 / 4 (25%) in relation to the total fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs).

[0176] In this case, it is a reduction of 70% of 1 / 4 (25%) of the total fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs) and a cost reduction of 0.075% of the current total fee amount (the total rent or the total administrative costs) ((0.25 * 0.70 + 0.75) - 1 = -0.075). The cost reduction is a monetary amount that can be reduced for each business and each tenant in the facility and is billed to the external company.

[0177] Furthermore, the fee calculation unit 151' can calculate the fee amount (rent, administration costs or usage) for each requester, taking into account the target fee amount for the entire facility that has been pre-defined by the facility manager.

[0178] The first presentation information generation unit 111A is created by adding a function to the one in Fig. 1. First presentation information generation unit 111 shown.

[0179] The first presentation information generation unit 111A generates presentation information for the first terminal 10 using the fee amount calculated by the fee calculation unit 151' (rent calculation unit 151) ("tenant rent" if the requester is a tenant) and outputs the presentation information to the first terminal 10.

[0180] The processing in the administrative device 100A is described.

[0181] Fig. Figure 8 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing in the management device 100A according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0182] When a setting is changed on the operating settings request screen in the first terminal 10, the management device 100A starts the process in Fig. 8 processing shown.

[0183] When it acquires the operating settings information from the first terminal 10, the traffic volume calculation unit 150 performs a traffic volume calculation processing (step ST210).

[0184] In particular, the traffic volume calculation unit 150 acquires the operating settings information and information contained in the elevator operating settings database 32 by referring to the elevator operating settings database 32 in the database unit 30, and calculates a traffic volume (current traffic volume) based on the current operating settings information and a traffic volume based on the operating settings information (changed traffic volume) acquired from the first terminal 10.

[0185] Next, the rent calculation unit 151 performs a rent calculation processing (step ST220).

[0186] The rental calculation unit 151 acquires the current and changed traffic volumes and calculates the rent based on these. If configured with the toll calculation unit 151', the toll calculation unit 151' performs the toll calculation processing (step ST220).

[0187] The fee calculation unit 151' acquires the current traffic volume and the changed traffic volume and calculates the fee amount based on the current traffic volume and the changed traffic volume.

[0188] Next, the first presentation information generation unit 111A performs processing to generate presentation information (step ST230).

[0189] In particular, the first presentation information generation unit 111A acquires the current traffic volume, the changed traffic volume, and the rent from the rent calculation unit 151 and generates presentation information, including a rent image that indicates the rent based on the current traffic volume, the changed traffic volume, and the rent. The first presentation information generation unit 111A outputs the generated presentation information to the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110.

[0190] In the case of the configuration with the toll calculation unit 151', the first presentation information generation unit 111A acquires the current traffic volume, the changed traffic volume, and the toll amount from the toll calculation unit 151' and generates presentation information, including a toll amount image that displays the toll amount based on the current traffic volume, the changed traffic volume, and the toll amount. The first presentation information generation unit 111A outputs the generated presentation information to the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110.

[0191] According to the configuration of the second embodiment, the fee amount, e.g. the rent, can be displayed on the first terminal device 10 according to the content of the operating setting that is made with the first terminal device 10, the terminal device of the facility user who is the requester.

[0192] After the first presentation information generation unit 111A has completed the processing to generate presentation information, the process ends in Fig. 8 processing shown.

[0193] Fig. Figure 9 is a representation illustrating a concept of administrative information 1000 that is managed by the administrative device 100A according to the second embodiment.

[0194] In the Fig. The administrative information 1000 shown in section 9 is information obtained using data from the elevator operating settings database 32.

[0195] Administrative Information 1000 specifies the elevator traffic volume (holding efficiency) and the corresponding rent increase / decrease for each floor in a given property (building) under conditions where the elevator's holding floor is determined by the requester for each floor. Furthermore, Administrative Information 1000 presents the traffic volume and rent increase / decrease for both an elevator not controlled by a Targeted Access System (DOAS) and an elevator controlled by the DOAS.

[0196] In an uncontrolled elevator that is not a DOAS, a bench in which a cabin stops on the nearest floor is designated as a preferred floor, and the cabin is preferentially transported.

[0197] Since the vertical movement of the DOAS-controlled elevator can be flexibly adjusted for cabins of the same bank, it is also possible to increase the priority of the stopping floor by preferentially transporting the cabin stopped on the nearest floor without specifying the bank.

[0198] Therefore, in the case where the DOAS-uncontrolled elevator and the DOAS-controlled elevator car are used in a mixed manner, there is a difference in whether or not the priority use of the setting for the holding floor setting can be supported, and in the associated increase / decrease in the residential rent.

[0199] As can be seen from the administrative information 1000, even when the same floor and the same stopping level are used, there is a difference in the increase / decrease in traffic volume and apartment rent between the DOAS-uncontrolled elevator and the DOAS-controlled elevator.

[0200] With a DOAS-controlled elevator, traffic volume and building rent can be increased or decreased depending on the setting of the stopping floor. However, with a DOAS-uncontrolled elevator, depending on the conditions on some floors, efficiency may unintentionally increase or decrease.

[0201] For example, a DOAS-controlled elevator car on the fourth or tenth floor, for which "usage" is set, can be configured to stop on the nearest floor in the elevator's direction of travel, instead of stopping in sequential order of floors. Therefore, it is possible to send the car to each floor with the same efficiency as with other usage settings, and no increase / decrease in building rent occurs (for example, it is possible to configure the control to send the car in the order fourth floor → sixth floor → fifth floor → first floor in the specific building).

[0202] In the case of the DOAS-uncontrolled elevator, however, since the elevator is dispatched in floor order, efficiency increases on the fourth floor (the floor being the upper floor of the second and third floors, which are set to "non-occupied", and the lower floor of the fifth floor, which is set to "priority occupancy"), where there is a high probability that a car will stop on the nearest floor, and on the tenth floor, to which a car without a passenger is always dispatched because the tenth floor is on the top floor, even if the "priority occupancy" setting is not applied, resulting in an increase in apartment rent.

[0203] Furthermore, in a controlled elevator where the standard stopping levels are set for the fifth and ninth floors, efficiency can be greatly increased by controlling the operation of a particular bank's cabin near the fifth or ninth floor, but in an uncontrolled elevator, all cabins of the bank can leave the fifth or ninth floor depending on the situation, and it is difficult to increase efficiency.

[0204] An administrative device according to the present disclosure is an administrative device that manages an attitude relating to the use of a facility, and the administrative device comprises: a request receiving unit to receive, via a first terminal device, an authorization request indicating that authorization to make an operational setting with respect to an elevator provided in the facility has been requested by a facility user who is a requester, or an operational setting request containing content of the operational setting of the elevator provided in the facility; an authorization confirmation unit to confirm to a second terminal whether the authorization request received from the request receiving unit should be authorized or not; an authorization management unit for managing an authorization of the operational shutdown request for the first terminal, wherein the authorization management unit is set up when the approval confirmation unit receives approval information indicating the approval of the authorization request from the second terminal, to grant authorization to the first terminal that requested the authorization; a control management unit to change a setting relating to the operation of the elevator, based on the shutdown request received by the request receiving unit from the first terminal, when authorization to request a shutdown is granted to the first terminal; a traffic volume calculation unit to access an elevator operating settings database containing operating settings information that specifies an operation-related setting for each elevator, and to calculate a traffic volume for each elevator; a fee calculation unit to calculate a fee amount for each of the requesters using the traffic volume calculated by the traffic volume calculation unit; and a presentation information generation unit to generate presentation information using the fee amount calculated by the fee amount calculation unit for each of the requesters and to output the presentation information to the first terminal or the second terminal.

[0205] This results in the effect that it is possible to provide an administrative device that allows for a setting change suitable for the usage pattern with the terminal device, even in a situation where the usage pattern of the facility user (the facility user including the tenant), who is the requester, is diversified.

[0206] Furthermore, it is possible to specify a fee amount according to the facility user's request for operational shutdown.

[0207] An administrative system according to the present disclosure is an administrative system comprising: a first terminal device that is an endpoint for a facility user, a second terminal device that is an endpoint for a facility manager, and an administrative device that is capable of communicating with the first terminal device and the second terminal device and of managing a setting relating to the use of a facility, wherein the administrative device comprises: a request receiving unit to receive an authorization request via the first terminal device indicating that authorization to make an operational setting with respect to an elevator provided in the facility has been requested by the facility user who is a requester, or an operational setting request containing content of the operational setting of the elevator provided in the facility; an authorization confirmation unit to confirm to the second terminal whether the authorization request received from the request receiving unit should be authorized or not; an authorization management unit for managing an authorization of the operational shutdown request for the first terminal, wherein the authorization management unit is set up when the approval confirmation unit receives approval information indicating the approval of the authorization request from the second terminal, to grant authorization to the first terminal that requested the authorization; a control management unit to change a setting relating to the operation of the elevator, based on the shutdown request received by the request receiving unit from the first terminal, when authorization to request a shutdown is granted to the first terminal; a traffic volume calculation unit to access an elevator operating settings database containing operating settings information that specifies an operation-related setting for each elevator, and to calculate a traffic volume for each elevator; a fee calculation unit to calculate a fee amount for each of the requesters using the traffic volume calculated by the traffic volume calculation unit; and a presentation information generation unit to generate presentation information using the fee amount calculated by the fee amount calculation unit for each of the requesters and to output the presentation information to the first terminal or the second terminal.

[0208] This results in the effect that it is possible to provide an administrative system that allows for a setting change suitable for the form of use using the terminal device, even in a situation where the form of use of the facility user (where facility users include tenants), who are the requester, is diversified.

[0209] Furthermore, it is possible to specify a fee amount according to the facility user's request for operational shutdown.

[0210] An administrative procedure according to the present disclosure is an administrative procedure for managing an appointment related to the use of a facility, and the administrative procedure includes: a request reception step of receiving, by a request reception unit, via a first terminal, an authorization request indicating that authorization to perform an operational setting with respect to an elevator provided in the facility has been requested by a requester, or an operational setting request containing content of the operational setting of the elevator provided in the facility; an authorization confirmation step in which a second terminal device is notified by an authorization confirmation unit whether the authorization request received from the request receiving unit should be authorized or not; an authorization management step of managing, by an authorization management unit, an authorization of the operational shutdown request for the first terminal, wherein the authorization management step is established when the authorization confirmation unit receives authorization information indicating the authorization of the authorization request from the second terminal, to grant authorization to the first terminal that requested the authorization; a control management step of changing, by a control management unit, when authorization to request a shutdown is granted to the first terminal, a setting relating to the operation of the elevator, based on the shutdown request received by the request receiving unit from the first terminal; a traffic volume calculation step of accessing, by a traffic volume calculation unit, an elevator operating settings database in which operating settings information is stored that specifies an operation-related setting for each elevator, and of calculating a traffic volume for each elevator; a fee amount calculation step of calculating, by a fee amount calculation unit, a fee amount for each of the requesters using the traffic volume calculated by the traffic volume calculation unit; and a presentation information generation step of generating, by a presentation information generation unit, presentation information using the fee amount calculated by the fee amount calculation unit for each of the requesters and outputting the presentation information to the first terminal or the second terminal.

[0211] The result is that it is possible to provide an administrative procedure that allows for a setting change suitable for the mode of use using the terminal device, even in a situation where the mode of use of the facility user (the facility user including the tenant) who is the requester is diversified.

[0212] Furthermore, it is possible to specify a fee amount according to the facility user's request for operational shutdown. Third example.

[0213] In the second embodiment (first embodiment) of the management of the facility user's authorization, such as the tenant, with respect to the operational setting of the equipment in the facility, the embodiment of the representation of the applicant's fee amount according to the operational setting established for the facility user who is the applicant was further described.

[0214] The third embodiment is one in which a suitable proposal is made for each facility user.

[0215] The third embodiment includes the configuration already described in the first embodiment or the configuration already described in the second embodiment, in order to illustrate the embodiment in which a function is added to the first or the second embodiment. In the third embodiment, the description of the configuration already described in the first and second embodiments is expediently omitted.

[0216] Fig. Figure 10 is a representation showing a first configuration example of an administrative device 100B according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure and an administrative system 1B with the administrative device.

[0217] Fig. Figure 11 is a representation showing a second configuration example of the management device 100B according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure and of the management system 1B including the management device.

[0218] The management system 1B comprises a first terminal 10, a second terminal 20, a database unit 30, an operating control unit 40, a control target equipment 50 and an administration device 100B.

[0219] The first terminal 10, the second terminal 20, the operating control unit 40 and the control target equipment 50 each have a similar configuration as in Fig. 1 is shown, so a detailed description is unnecessary here.

[0220] Since database unit 30 is identical to the database unit 30 described above or to database unit 30A, a detailed description of database unit 30A is omitted here.

[0221] One in Fig. 10. The management device 100B shown comprises a first communication unit 110, a first presentation information generation unit 111B, a request reception unit 112, an approval confirmation unit 120, a second presentation information generation unit 121, a second communication unit 122, an authorization management unit 130, a control management unit 140, a traffic volume calculation unit 150, a rent calculation unit 151, a proposal generation unit 152, a control unit (not shown), and the like.

[0222] One in Fig. Figure 11 shows the management device 100B comprising a first communication unit 110, a first presentation information generation unit 111B, a request reception unit 112, an approval confirmation unit 120, a second presentation information generation unit 121, a second communication unit 122, an authorization management unit 130, a control management unit 140, a traffic volume calculation unit 150, a fee amount calculation unit 151', a proposal generation unit 152, a control unit (not shown) and the like.

[0223] This means that the management device 100B contains the proposal generation unit 152 in addition to the management device 100 or the management device 100A.

[0224] The management device 100B changes the first presentation information generation unit 111 in the management device 100 or the first presentation information generation unit 111A in the management device 100A to the first presentation information generation unit 111B.

[0225] Each of the first communication unit 110, the request reception unit 112, the approval confirmation unit 120, the second presentation information generation unit 121, the second communication unit 122, the authorization management unit 130, the control management unit 140, the traffic volume calculation unit 150, and the rent calculation unit 151 has a configuration that corresponds to the one described in Fig. The configuration shown in section 5 is similar, and a detailed description of it is omitted here. Furthermore, the fee calculation unit 151' has the same structure as in... Fig. Figure 6 is shown, so a detailed description is unnecessary here.

[0226] The control unit (not shown) takes over the overall control of the management device 100B. For example, the management device 100B is activated and stopped.

[0227] The Proposal Generation Unit 152 generates proposal information that specifies recommended request content for each facility user (facility user including a tenant) by using at least one of the traffic volume calculated by the Traffic Calculation Unit 150 and the fee amount calculated by the Fee Calculation Unit 151 (alternatively, the tenant's rent calculated by the Rent Calculation Unit 151).

[0228] In particular, the proposal generation unit 152 refers to the database (e.g. the operational information database and the fee database 36A (the rent database 36)) in the database unit 30 using the traffic volume and the fee amount, searches for a condition for a reduction of the current fee amount (fee amount like the rent) and generates and outputs the proposal information using the search result.

[0229] The first presentation information generation unit 111B is created by adding a function to the one in Fig. 5 shown first presentation information generation unit 111A received.

[0230] The first presentation information generation unit 111B generates presentation information for the first terminal 10 using the suggestion information generated by the suggestion generation unit 152 and outputs the presentation information to the first terminal 10 via the first communication unit 110.

[0231] Furthermore, the first presentation information generation unit 111B refers to the elevator operating settings database 32, in which the operating settings information relating to the operation of each elevator is stored, in order to acquire the current operating settings information, and generates the presentation information including the operating settings image, which enables operation for the operating settings request using the operating settings information.

[0232] The second presentation information generation unit 121 can be configured to generate the presentation information similarly to the first presentation information generation unit 111B and output the presentation information to the second terminal device 20 via the second communication unit.

[0233] In this case, the management device 100 can also forward the proposed content for the facility user, e.g. a tenant, to the facility manager via the second terminal device 20.

[0234] The processing in the administrative device 100B is described.

[0235] Fig. Figure 12 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing in the management device 100B according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0236] When a setting is changed on the operating settings request screen in the first terminal 10, the management device 100B starts the process in Fig. 12 processing methods shown.

[0237] If the in Fig. When the processing shown in step 12 is started, the traffic volume calculation unit 150 performs a processing operation to calculate the traffic volume (step ST310).

[0238] In particular, the traffic volume calculation unit 150 acquires the operating settings information and information contained in the elevator operating settings database 32 by referring to the elevator operating settings database 32 in the database unit 30, and calculates a traffic volume (current traffic volume) based on the current operating settings information and a traffic volume based on the operating settings information (changed traffic volume) acquired from the first terminal 10.

[0239] Next, the fee amount calculation unit 151' (rent calculation unit 151) performs a fee amount calculation processing (rent calculation processing) (step ST320).

[0240] The fee calculation unit 151' (rental calculation unit 151) acquires the current traffic volume and the changed traffic volume and calculates the fee amount (rent) based on the current traffic volume and the changed traffic volume.

[0241] Next, the proposal generation unit 152 performs the processing of the proposal generation (step ST330).

[0242] The proposal generation unit 152 refers to the database (e.g., the database for operational information and the fee database 36A (the rent database 36)) in the database unit 30 using the traffic volume and the fee amount (rent), searches for a condition for a reduction of the current rent, and generates and outputs the proposal information using the search result.

[0243] The first presentation information generation unit 111B then processes the presentation information (step ST340).

[0244] Specifically, the first presentation information generation unit 111B acquires the current traffic volume, the changed traffic volume, and the toll amount (rent) from the toll calculation unit 151 (rent calculation unit 151). The first presentation information generation unit 111B acquires the proposal information from the proposal generation unit 152. The first presentation information generation unit 111B generates presentation information, including a toll information screen that displays a toll amount (rent) based on the current traffic volume, the changed traffic volume, the toll amount (rent), and the proposal information. The first presentation information generation unit 111B outputs the generated presentation information to the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110.

[0245] When the first presentation information generation unit 111B performs the processing of the presentation information, the process ends in Fig. 12 processing methods shown.

[0246] Here is an example of a configuration for the first endpoint 10 and the second endpoint 20.

[0247] Fig. Figure 13 is a representation showing an example of a configuration of the first terminal device 10.

[0248] The in Fig. The first terminal unit 10 shown in Figure 13 comprises a presentation unit 11, an input information output unit 12 and a query unit 13.

[0249] The presentation unit 11 displays various presentation information acquired by the management device 100B on a (not shown) display of the first terminal device 10.

[0250] Presentation Unit 11 includes a query input image presentation unit 11-1, a query result presentation unit 11-2, a setting status presentation unit 11-3, and a fee information presentation unit 11-4.

[0251] The Query Input Image Presentation Unit 11-1 presents a query input image for the input of the query content into the administrative device by the user who is the queryer.

[0252] The presentation unit 11-2 acquires a query result from the management device 100B and presents a presentation image based on the query result.

[0253] Presentation Unit 11-3 acquires the setting state information from Management Device 100B and presents a setting image based on this information. The setting state information can be either temporary setting state information, indicating a temporary setting state before the setting request is determined, or specific setting state information, indicating a setting state after the setting request has been determined. The setting state information includes a setting state set by another requester.

[0254] The Fee Information Presentation Unit 11-4 acquires the fee information from the Administrative Device 100B and presents a fee information display based on that information. The fee information consists of either predicted fee amount information, indicating the fee amount before the hiring request is determined, or determined fee amount information, after the hiring request has been determined.

[0255] The input information output unit 12 acquires and outputs the information entered via the query input screen.

[0256] In addition, the input information output unit 12 acquires, for example, an authorization request signal to query a request point via the request input image and outputs the authorization request signal to the management device 100B via the authorization request unit 13-1.

[0257] For example, if the content of the hiring request is entered via the request input screen, the input information output unit 12 outputs the content to the management device.

[0258] Furthermore, when the input information output unit 12 acquires a determination signal indicating that the hiring request is determined via the request input image, it outputs, for example, information (request determination notification) to the management device 100B via the hiring request unit 13-2, indicating that the request has been determined.

[0259] That is, the input information output unit 12 outputs the authorization request to apply for the request authorization, the temporary hiring information entered before the determination of the hiring requirement, and the determined hiring information after the determination of the hiring requirement to the management device 100B.

[0260] Based on the information entered via the query input screen, query unit 13 executes a query directed to management device 100B.

[0261] The request unit 13 comprises an authorization request unit 13-1 and a hiring request unit 13-2.

[0262] When the authorization request information for applying for authorization is acquired via the request input screen, the authorization request unit 13-1 outputs the authorization request information to the management device 100B.

[0263] When it acquires a determination signal indicating that the hiring request has been determined via the request input image, the hiring request unit 13-2 outputs information (request determination notification) indicating that the request has been determined to the management device 100B.

[0264] An example of processing in the first terminal device 10 is described.

[0265] Fig. Figure 14 is a flowchart showing an example of processing in the first terminal 10.

[0266] The first device 10 starts the in Fig. 14. Processing shown according to the operation of the user who is the requester.

[0267] The request unit 13 in the first terminal 10 confirms whether the requester has authorization (step ST351). The authorization request unit 13-1 in the request unit 13 confirms whether the authorization granted by the management device 100B has already been received or not.

[0268] If the request unit 13 in the first terminal 10 determines that the requester has authorization (step ST351 “YES”), it proceeds to step ST354.

[0269] If the request unit 13 in the first terminal 10 determines that the requester is not authorized (step ST351 "NO"), the request unit 13 in the first terminal 10 submits an authorization request (step ST352). Specifically, the authorization request unit 13-1 in the request unit 13 outputs the user identification information and the authorization request information to the management device 100B.

[0270] The request unit 13 in the first terminal 10 determines whether authorization has been granted (step ST353). Specifically, the settings request unit 13-2 in request unit 13 determines that authorization is granted when it receives the authorization notification indicating that the requester has authorization to submit a request to the administrative device 100B.

[0271] If the hiring request unit 13-2 determines in request unit 13 that authorization has not been granted (step ST353 "NO"), the process ends in Fig. 14 processing shown.

[0272] If the authorization has been granted (step ST353 “YES”), the request unit 13 presents a request input image in the first terminal 10 (step ST354).

[0273] The presentation unit 11 in the first terminal 10 presents the state of the setting (step ST355).

[0274] The input information output unit 12 acquires the request information (step ST356). This request information includes temporary configuration information. The input information output unit 12 in the first terminal 10 outputs the temporary configuration information as acquired request information to the management device 100B.

[0275] The presentation unit 11 in the first terminal 10 presents the presentation information (step ST357). Specifically, the presentation unit 11-4 in presentation unit 11 acquires the information about the predicted fee amount from the management device 100B and presents a fee amount image that displays the predicted fee amount using the information about the predicted fee amount.

[0276] The request unit 13 of the first terminal 10 submits a setting request (step ST358). Specifically, if the setting request determination process is performed by the requester in a state where the authorization notification, indicating that the requester has authorization to make the request, is received, the setting request unit 13-2 in the request unit 13 of the first terminal issues a request determination notification indicating that the setting request for the setting information is being determined for the management device 100B. At this point, the setting request unit 13-2 can output the determined setting information, which is the request information, along with the request determination notification to the management device 100B.Since the content of the determined hiring information matches the content of the temporary hiring information already issued to the administrative device 100B, it is not absolutely necessary for the hiring request unit 13-2 to issue the determined hiring information along with the request determination notification.

[0277] The presentation unit 11 in the first terminal 10 presents the result of the request (step ST359).

[0278] After processing step ST359, the first terminal 10 terminates the in Fig. 14 processing shown.

[0279] Fig. Figure 15 is a representation showing an example of a configuration of the second terminal device 20.

[0280] The in Fig. The second terminal unit 20 shown in Figure 15 comprises a presentation unit 21 and a query unit 22.

[0281] Presentation Unit 21 includes a Presentation Unit 21-1 for approval information, a Presentation Unit 21-2 for the hiring status, and a Presentation Unit 21-3 for fee information.

[0282] The presentation unit 21-1 for the approval image presents the approval image on a display unit (not shown) in the second terminal 20 in response to the approval confirmation request from the management device 100B.

[0283] The presentation unit 21-2 for the setting state acquires the setting state information from the management device 100B and presents the setting state image based on the setting state information.

[0284] The Fee Information Presentation Unit 21-3 acquires the fee information from the Administrative Device 100B and presents the fee information based on the fee information.

[0285] The request unit submits a request to the management device 100B based on an operation by a user who owns the second terminal device 20.

[0286] Request unit 22 comprises an authorization request unit.

[0287] When the facility manager, who owns the second terminal 20, performs an authorization approval process for the requester or the facility user via the approval screen, the authorization request unit outputs approval information indicating that the authorization has been approved to the management device 100B.

[0288] A picture is described of the information displayed by the management device 100B according to the third embodiment.

[0289] Fig. 16A, Fig. 16B and Fig. 16C are illustrations that demonstrate concepts of images displayed by the administrative device according to the third embodiment.

[0290] The in Fig. Presentation image 1100 shown in 16A is an image that represents the screen of the operational setup request.

[0291] In presentation image 1100, a time period 1110 and a level 1120 of the facility are optionally drawn. Furthermore, a comment image 1130, based on the proposal information, is drawn in presentation image 1100.

[0292] In comment image 1130, for example, a text image such as "A tenant on the same floor has requested non-use of the morning period. If you also submit a request for non-use, you can get a reduced fee, how about that?" is drawn.

[0293] This indicates that the proposed information contains information that includes a condition for reducing the fee amount compared to the current fee amount with reference to the elevator operating settings database 32 for the elevator.

[0294] The in Fig. 16B, the presentation image 1100' shown, is an image that represents the screen of the operational setup request.

[0295] In presentation image 1100', a time period 1110 and a level 1120' of the facility are optionally drawn. In addition, a comment image 1130' based on the proposal information is drawn in presentation image 1100'.

[0296] In comment image 1130, for example, a text image such as "A tenant on the same floor has requested non-use of the morning period. If you also submit a request for non-use, you can get a reduced fee, how about that?" is drawn.

[0297] This means that the proposed information is information that was created with reference to the elevator's elevator operating settings database 32 and includes a condition for reducing the fee amount compared to the current fee amount.

[0298] The presentation image 1100' indicates that the C-Bank elevator, which is a freight elevator, is designated for the first and seventh floors between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m., and the commentary image 1130' shows a text image such as "Today the large freight elevator cabins are exclusively for "△▼ Moving Company"".

[0299] This means that the presentation information generated by the presentation information generation unit (111B, 121) is information for the exclusive use of the external company.

[0300] The in Fig. The presentation image 1140' shown in 16C is a commentary image, and a text image such as "Today, the D-Bank is an elevator intended for the VIP guests of Hotel 7F" is drawn. This is used, for example, instead of the commentary image 1130' in Fig. 16B is displayed.

[0301] This means that the presentation information generated by the presentation information generation unit (111B, 121) is information for the exclusive use of the tenant in the facility.

[0302] Fig. Figure 17 is a representation to describe a concept of information presented by the management device 100B according to the third embodiment.

[0303] A presentation image 1200 is a comment image based on the presentation information created using the suggestion information.

[0304] In presentation image 1200, text images such as "A tenant on another floor has requested the non-use of the morning period", "Since the elevator is intended for your floor, it is not necessary to use the security gate" and "You can get a rent reduction, but how about discontinuing the function?" are drawn.

[0305] This means that the presentation information includes information including proposal information.

[0306] Fig. 18A and Fig. 18B are representations that each illustrate a concept of an image presented by the management device 100B according to the third embodiment.

[0307] The in Fig. Presentation image 1300 shown in 18A is an image that represents the screen of the operational setup request.

[0308] Presentation image 1300 shows a business closure request that the tenant wishes to submit. Specifically, presentation image 1300 includes a date and time (1310), a bank (1320), a usage type (1330), an image for increasing / decreasing the fee amount (1340) upon request, and a request confirmation button (1350). The closure request is submitted by pressing the request confirmation button (1350).

[0309] The in Fig. 18B, the presentation image shown at 1300', is an image that represents the screen of the operational setup request.

[0310] In presentation image 1300', a business closure request is drawn, which the external company intends to apply for. Specifically, presentation image 1300' includes a date and time 1310', a bank 1320', a usage type 1330', a fee amount 1340' upon request, and a request confirmation button 1350. The usage type 1330' describes "First and seventh floors exclusively for use by '△▼ Moving Company'", and the fee amount 1340' shows "3 hours' rent 4500 yen" upon request. The closure request is finalized by pressing the request confirmation button 1350.

[0311] By using such a presentation image as the screen for the business cessation request and presenting the presentation image in the first terminal 10, the external company can submit a request and assume an increase or decrease in the fee amount due to the business cessation.

[0312] According to the third embodiment, the first terminal device 10 can present an offer suitable for a facility user (e.g. a tenant) on the basis of a fee (rent) that corresponds to the operating setting established with the first terminal device 10, which is a terminal device for the facility user (tenant).

[0313] The management device according to the present disclosure further comprises a proposal generation unit for generating proposal information that specifies recommended request content for each of the requesters, using the traffic volume calculated by the traffic volume calculation unit and / or the fee amount calculated by the toll amount calculation unit, and the presentation information generation unit is set up to generate presentation information for the first terminal using the proposal information generated by the proposal generation unit and to output the presentation information to the first terminal.

[0314] This makes it possible to provide an administrative mechanism that offers the requester a better proposal.

[0315] A hiring procedure of the present disclosure is a hiring procedure in which a hiring request is made using a first terminal device to an administrative device that manages hiring information associated with the use of a facility, and the hiring procedure is designed to include: a permission request step of issuing, by a request unit of the first terminal, permission request information containing user identification information to identify a requester, to the management device; a query input image presentation step of presenting, by a query input image presentation unit of the first terminal, a query input image into which an operating setting of an elevator provided in the facility can be entered, using a display unit of the first terminal; an input information acquisition step of acquiring, by an input information output unit of the first terminal device, setting information which includes an operating setting of the elevator provided in the facility, via the request input image; an input information output step of output, by an input information output unit of the first terminal, to the management device, of temporary setting information, before a request determination notification of the setting information is given from the first terminal to the management device; a fee information presentation step of presenting, by a fee information presentation unit of the first terminal, a fee information image relating to a fee amount corresponding to a traffic volume of an elevator, when the temporary setting information is applied to set based on presentation information received by the first terminal from the management device; and a setting request step of issuing, by the request unit of the first terminal, a request determination notification to determine a setting request of the setting information to the management device, when an operation of determining a setting request is carried out by the requester in a state in which an authorization notification is received indicating that the requester has request authorization.

[0316] This results in the effect that it is possible to provide an administrative device that allows for a setting change suitable for the usage pattern with the terminal device, even in a situation where the usage pattern of the facility user (the facility user including the tenant), who is the requester, is diversified.

[0317] This makes it possible to present the fee amount corresponding to the business closure request to the facility user, who is the hiring requestor, via the terminal device. Fourth example.

[0318] In the third embodiment, the embodiment (first embodiment) of managing the authorization of the facility user (tenant), who is the requester, regarding the shutdown of the equipment in the facility, and the embodiment (second embodiment) of submitting the fee amount (rent) to the requester in accordance with the shutdown of the equipment in the facility, described the embodiment of making a proposal to the requester based on the fee amount for each requester.

[0319] The fourth embodiment is an embodiment in which a change in the fee amount can be requested via a first terminal device, which is a terminal device for a facility user who is a requester.

[0320] The fourth embodiment includes the configuration already described in the first embodiment, the configuration already described in the second embodiment, or the configuration already described in the third embodiment, in order to illustrate an embodiment in which a function is added to the first, second, or third embodiment.

[0328] That is to say, the management device 100C also includes a rent update unit 160 or a fee management unit 160' in relation to the management device 100, the management device 100A or the management device 100B.

[0329] Furthermore, the management device 100C modifies a first presentation information generating unit 111C, a request receiving unit 112C, an approval confirmation unit 120C and a second presentation information generating unit 121C with respect to the management device 100, the management device 100A or the management device 100B.

[0330] The control unit (not shown) takes over the overall control of the management device 100C. For example, it activates and stops the management device 100.

[0331] The first communication unit 110, the second communication unit 122, the authorization management unit 130, the control management unit 140, the traffic volume calculation unit 150, the rent calculation unit 151, the fee amount calculation unit 151' and the proposal generation unit 152 each correspond to the configuration already described, so a detailed description is omitted here.

[0332] The first presentation information generation unit 111C is created by adding a function to the one in Fig. 10 first presentation information generation unit 111B received.

[0333] The first presentation information generation unit 111C refers to the elevator operating settings database 32, which stores the operating settings information relating to the operation of each elevator, in order to acquire the current operating settings information and generates presentation information including an operating settings image that enables operation for the operating settings request and the fee amount change request using the operating settings information.

[0334] The 112C request receiving unit is created by adding a function to the one in Fig. The request reception unit 112 shown in the 10 images was received.

[0335] The request reception unit 112C receives the operating setting request based on the content of the operating setting configured for the operating setting screen in the first terminal 10.

[0336] In addition, the request reception unit 112C receives the request to change the fee amount based on the content of the operating setting that was defined for the operating setting image in the first terminal 10.

[0337] The Approval Confirmation Unit 120C is created by adding a function to the one in Fig. 10 shown approval confirmation units 120 received.

[0338] When the request receiving unit 112 receives the operational shutdown request and the fee amount change request, the approval confirmation unit 120C generates fee amount request information to confirm to the second terminal 20, which is a terminal for a facility manager, whether or not the fee amount should be approved according to the applied operational shutdown content.

[0339] When the approval information is received from the second terminal 20 after the issue of the fee amount query information, the approval confirmation unit 120C informs the fee management unit 160' (rent update unit 160) of the approval.

[0340] The second presentation information generation unit 121C is created by adding a function to the one in Fig. The second presentation information generation unit 121 shown in 10 is obtained.

[0341] When the fee amount query information is acquired from the approval confirmation unit 120C, the second presentation information generation unit 121C generates presentation information for the second terminal 20 based on the fee amount query information.

[0342] When the approval confirmation unit 120 receives approval information from the second terminal 20 indicating that the fee amount has been approved, the rent update unit 160 updates the fee database 36A, which stores the fee amount determined for each tenant using the approved fee amount, if it contains the rent update unit 160.

[0343] When the approval confirmation unit 120 receives the approval information from the second terminal 20 indicating that the fee amount has been approved, the fee management unit 160 updates the fee database 36A, which stores the fee amount determined for each requester using the approved fee amount, if a fee management unit 160 is present.

[0344] In the Fig. 19 and Fig. In the 20 depicted management device 100C, the first communication unit and the second communication unit are shown separately, but the first communication unit and the second communication unit can be configured by one communication unit.

[0345] In the administrative device 100 in Fig. 19 and Fig. The first presentation information generation unit 111 and the second presentation information generation unit 121 are shown separately in Figure 20, but the first presentation information generation unit 111 and the second presentation information generation unit 121 can be configured by a single presentation information generation unit. In this case, one presentation information generation unit generates presentation information for the first terminal 10 or presentation information for the second terminal 20. The presentation information for the first terminal 10 is output to the first terminal 10 via the first communication unit 110. The presentation information for the second terminal 20 is output to the second terminal 20 via the second communication unit 122.

[0346] Fig. Figure 21 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing in the administrative device according to the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0347] When a request to initiate the operational shutdown request and the request to change the fee amount is received from the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110, the management device 100C starts the process described in Fig. 14 processing shown.

[0348] If the in Fig. When the processing shown in step 14 is started, the first presentation information generation unit 111 initially outputs fee amount change request presentation information (step ST410).

[0349] The request reception unit 112C then determines whether the requester (tenant) is making a request (step ST420).

[0350] In particular, when receiving the request to discontinue operations and the request to change the fee amount from the first terminal device 10 via the first communication unit 110, the request reception unit 112C determines that the requester (tenant) is making a request.

[0351] If the request reception unit 112C determines that the requester (tenant) is not submitting a request (step ST420 "NO"), the process ends in Fig. 14 processing shown.

[0352] When the Inquiry Receiving Unit 112C determines that the inquirer (tenant) is making an inquiry (step ST420 “YES”), the Inquiry Receiving Unit 112C then receives the inquiry regarding the fee amount (step ST430).

[0353] In particular, the request receiving unit 112C confirms the content of the request to discontinue operation and the request to change the fee amount from the first terminal 10 and informs the approval confirmation unit 120C of the content of the request to discontinue operation and the request to change the fee amount.

[0354] The Approval Confirmation Unit 120C then processes the approval confirmation (step ST440). Specifically, the Approval Confirmation Unit 120C generates fee amount request information to confirm to the second terminal 20, which is a terminal for the facility manager, whether or not the fee amount should be approved according to the applied operational settings content.

[0355] Next, the approval confirmation unit 120C determines whether the facility manager grants approval (step ST450).

[0356] In particular, the Approval Confirmation Unit 120C waits for a response from the second terminal 20, and when it receives the approval information from the second terminal 20, it determines that the facility manager has approved and informs the Fee Management Unit 160' (the Rent Update Unit 160) that the request to change the fee amount has been approved.

[0357] On the other hand, if the Approval Confirmation Unit 120C has received the non-approval information indicating non-approval, or if, for example, it has not received the approval information within a predetermined constant time, it determines that the facility manager has not approved (step ST450 "NO") and notifies the Request Receiving Unit 112C of the non-approval. In this case, the Request Receiving Unit 112C further outputs information to the first terminal 10 via the first presentation information generating unit 111 and the first communication unit 110, indicating that the request to change the fee amount was not approved, and which is in Fig. The processing shown in section 14 ends.

[0358] If the Approval Confirmation Unit 120C determines that the approval is granted (Step ST450 “YES”), the Fee Management Unit 160 (Rent Update Unit 160) performs processing to update the fee amount (Step ST460).

[0359] Once the fee management unit 160' (rent update unit 160) has completed the processing to update the fee amount, the process ends in Fig. 14 processing shown.

[0360] According to the fourth embodiment, the requester (tenant) can request a change in the apartment rent by using the first terminal device 10, which is an end device for a facility user (tenant) who is a requester. Furthermore, the management device 100 can change the apartment rent for the requester (tenant) based on the apartment rent change request submitted via the first terminal device 10, which is an end device for a facility user (tenant) who is the requester.

[0361] The management device according to the present disclosure further comprises a presentation information generation unit that generates presentation information for the first terminal or presentation information for the second terminal, wherein the presentation information generation unit acquires the current operating setting information with reference to an elevator operating setting database that stores operating setting information relating to the operation for each elevator, and generates presentation information including an operating setting image that enables operation for the operating setting request using the operating setting information, and the request receiving unit receives the operating setting request based on the content of the operating setting set for the operating setting image in the first terminal.

[0362] Since the current content of the setting is contained in the image to be applied in the first terminal device, it is possible to provide a graphical user interface in which the setting content to be changed can be easily entered by the requester (facility user including a tenant).

[0363] The management device according to the present disclosure further includes a fee management unit for updating a fee database that stores a fee amount determined for each tenant, in a case where, when the request receiving unit receives the operational shutdown request, the approval confirmation unit confirms to the second terminal, which is a terminal for a facility manager, whether or not a fee amount should be approved according to the applied operational shutdown content, and the approval confirmation unit receives approval information indicating that the fee amount is approved by the second terminal using the approved fee amount.

[0364] This means that the first terminal device can request a change to the fee amount. Fifth example.
