Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In the house disclosed in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to provide a pantry facing the outside, and an outdoor passage to the pantry is required. However, depending on the site conditions such as a narrow lot, it may be difficult to provide a pantry facing the outside, or it may be difficult to secure a passage to the pantry provided facing the outside. In addition, providing a pantry may interfere with the interior plan (planning), such as making other rooms narrower or making the traffic flow complex.

[0005] Therefore, the present invention can provide a space (luggage delivery / collection space) where a deliverer can enter and deliver / collect luggage without the occupant directly witnessing it, without being affected by the site conditions or interfering with the interior plan. Residence The object is to provide such a space.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] To achieve the above object, the house according to the present invention includes It is a two-generation residence where the first household and the second household live together, and is shared by the first household and the second household an entrance space, and a first living space adjacent to the entrance space Of the first household , A second living space of the second household provided separately from the first living space and adjacent to the entrance space, and an entrance door provided in the entrance space and used for coming and going with the outside, and a first interior door provided between the entrance space and the first living space, A second interior door provided between the entrance space and the second living space, and an entrance door lock provided on the entrance door, and a first interior door lock provided on the first interior door, A second interior door lock provided on the second interior door, and a first key that can unlock the entrance door lock and the first interior door lock The second interior door lock cannot be unlocked , and a second key that can unlock the entrance door lock but cannot unlock the first interior door lock And the second interior door lock . A fourth key that can unlock the entrance door lock and the second interior door lock and cannot unlock the first interior door lock, and It has these.

[0008] In the present invention, the user of the first key can unlock both the front door lock and the first interior door lock, and can enter the first living space from the outside through the front entrance space. Therefore, it is assumed that the resident of the house uses the first key. The user of the second key can unlock the front door lock but cannot unlock the first interior door lock, and can enter the front entrance space from the outside but cannot enter the first living space. That is, the user of the second key can open the front door and enter only the front entrance space from the outside. Thus, if a delivery person or the like (delivery person) can use the second key, it becomes possible to enter the front entrance space and deliver / collect packages without the resident being present directly, which is convenient. And by doing so, the front entrance space can be used as a space (hereinafter referred to as a package delivery / collection space) where a delivery person can enter and deliver / collect packages without the resident being present directly. Therefore, compared with the case where the package delivery / collection space is provided separately from the front entrance space, in the present invention, the package delivery / collection space can be provided without being affected by the location conditions or causing any obstacles to the interior plan. The user of the first key (for example, the resident of the first living space) can enter the entrance space and the first living space, but cannot enter the second living space. The user of the fourth key (for example, the resident of the second living space) can enter the entrance space and the second living space, but cannot enter the first living space. And the user of the second key such as a delivery person can enter the entrance space but cannot enter the first living space and the second living space. Thus, even in the above cases, the entrance space can be used as a luggage storage / retrieval space.

[0009] Also, in the house according to the present invention, with respect to the wall surface provided in the house and in contact with the surface for coming and going with the outside, the installable door position may be only the position of the front door.

[0010] In the present invention, since the entrance space is used as a luggage drop-off and collection space, there is no need to provide a door for entering and leaving the outside other than the entrance door in order to provide a luggage drop-off and collection space. Therefore, the only door that can be installed on the wall surface in contact with the surface for entering and leaving the outside is the entrance door. Even if only the entrance door is used as the door for entering and leaving the outside, the luggage drop-off and collection space can be provided without being affected by the site conditions or causing any problems in the interior plan. For example, even in a house where the only spaces where a door can be installed along the wall surface in contact with the surface for entering and leaving the outside are the entrance and the plumbing space, or the entrance and the living space, and it is not possible to provide an entrance door other than the entrance door, the entrance space can be used as a luggage drop-off and collection space.

[0011] Further, in the house according to the present invention, an entrance may not be provided on the outer wall facing the boundary line of the adjacent lot of the house.

[0012] In the present invention, separately from the entrance space, there is no need to provide a luggage drop-off and collection space that enters from an entrance provided on the outer wall facing the boundary line of the adjacent lot of the house. Therefore, even when no entrance is provided on the outer wall facing the boundary line of the adjacent lot of the house, the entrance space can be used as a luggage drop-off and collection space.

[0013] Further, the house according to the present invention further includes a storage cabinet provided in the entrance space and a storage cabinet lock provided on the storage cabinet, and the storage cabinet lock can be unlocked with the first key and may not be unlockable with the second key. And the fourth key By adopting such a configuration, when a storage cabinet for storing, for example, shoes is provided in the entrance space, it is possible to prevent a user of the second key, such as a delivery person, from opening the door of the storage cabinet even if they enter the entrance space from the outside.

[0014] Also, in the house according to the present invention, unlocking the first interior door lock from the entrance space requires the first key, and unlocking the first interior door lock from the first living space may not require the first key.

[0015] Further, in the house according to the present invention, unlocking the first interior door lock from the entrance space requires the first key, and unlocking the first interior door lock from the first living space may not require the first key.

[0016] With such a configuration, when a user of the first key, such as a resident, enters the first living space from the entrance space, the first indoor door lock can be unlocked with one key. However, when entering the entrance space from the living space, it can be unlocked without using the first key.

[0017] Also, in the house according to the present invention, when the entrance door lock is unlocked with the first key, the first indoor door lock may be configured to be unlocked as well.

[0018] With such a configuration, when a user of the first key, such as a resident, enters the house from the outside and unlocks the entrance door lock with the first key, the indoor door lock is also unlocked. Therefore, an operation for unlocking the indoor door lock, which is separate from the operation of unlocking the entrance door lock, becomes unnecessary, and it is convenient to use.

[0019] Also, in the house according to the present invention, the entrance space may include an entrance that can communicate with the outside, and an entrance hall that is adjacent to the entrance and adjacent to the first living space through the first indoor door.

[0020] With such a configuration, the entrance and the entrance hall can be used as a luggage storage and collection space.

[0026] Such a configuration assumes a case where, for example, in a two-family house using the same entrance space, the first living space of one family and the second living space of the other family are arranged adjacent to the entrance space. The user of the first key (for example, the resident of the first living space) can enter the entrance space and the first living space, but cannot enter the second living space. The user of the fourth key (for example, the resident of the second living space) can enter the entrance space and the second living space, but cannot enter the first living space. And the user of the second key such as a delivery person can enter the entrance space, but cannot enter the first living space and the second living space. Thereby, even in the above case, the entrance space can be used as a luggage storage / collection space.

[0029] In addition, in the house according to the present invention, when the entrance door lock is unlocked with the second key, the locks other than the entrance door lock may be locked.

[0030] With such a configuration, when a user of the second key such as a delivery person unlocks the entrance door lock and enters the entrance space from the outside, the first interior door lock, the second interior door lock, the storage locker lock, etc. are locked. Thereby, the user of the second key can be prevented from entering the first living space or the second living space or opening the storage locker. The second key is, for example, a time-limited unlocking code designated by the resident.

Effect of the Invention

[0031] According to the present invention, a luggage storage / collection space can be provided without being affected by the site conditions or causing any hindrance to the interior plan.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0033] (First Embodiment) Hereinafter, a house and a locking / unlocking system according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1. The house 1 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is one room of an apartment house, and is configured to access the interior by opening the front door from the common corridor 11 (outside). The house 1 has a front door 2, a front hall 3, and a living space 4 (first living space).

[0034] The front door 2 is a space provided with the front door 21, and can communicate with the common corridor 11 by opening the front door 21. A front door lock 22 is provided on the front door 21.

[0035] In this embodiment, the only door used for coming and going between the inside and outside of the house 1 is the front door 21. Also, on the side surface of the house 1 that is in contact with the passage surface, a door that can communicate with the outside cannot be installed. Here, the passage surface is the surface on which the door for a person to enter the inside of the house 1 from the outside is installed. The surfaces other than the passage surface are the surfaces near the parking space and the door boundary surface, and a door that can communicate with the outside cannot be installed. Although the house 1 is provided with a veranda 12, it is set so that people do not enter the inside of the house 1 from the outside through the veranda 12 under normal circumstances. On the passage surface facing the common corridor 11 in the house 1, a front door 2 and a plumbing space are provided.

[0036] The front hall 3 is provided adjacent to the front door 2. There is no wall between the front door 2 and the front hall 3, and they are connected spaces. The space combining the front door 2 and the front hall 3 is defined as the front door space 5. The floor of the front door 2 is lower than that of the front hall 3, and a sill 31 is provided between the front door 2 and the front hall 3.

[0037] In the entrance space 5, there is provided an entrance storage 51 (storage) for storing, for example, shoes. On the door 52 of the entrance storage 51, a storage locker 53 is provided. In the entrance space 5, a camera 54 capable of photographing the inside of the entrance space 5 is provided.

[0038] The living space 4 is adjacent to the entrance hall 3. Between the living space 4 and the entrance hall 3, a wall 41 having an entrance is provided. At the entrance, an interior door 42 (first interior door) is provided. On the interior door 42, an interior door lock 43 (first interior door lock) is provided. The living space 4 and the entrance hall 3 can communicate with each other by opening the interior door 42. In this embodiment, the living space 4 indicates a space adjacent to the entrance hall 3 via the interior door 42, and includes not only rooms such as a living room and a bedroom, but also a corridor and a plumbing space.

[0039] The house 1 of this embodiment includes a first key capable of locking and unlocking the entrance door lock 22, the interior door lock 43, and the storage locker lock 53, and a second key capable of unlocking the entrance door lock 22 but incapable of locking and unlocking the interior door lock 43 and the storage locker lock 53. The first key is a key that can be used by the residents of the house. The second key is a key that can be used by a person permitted by the residents of the house. For each of the entrance door lock 22, the interior door lock 43, and the storage locker lock 53, the unlocked state is denoted as the unlocked state, and the locked state is denoted as the locked state.

[0040] The resident can use the first key to unlock the entrance door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43, enabling access to the common corridor 11, the entrance hall 3, and the living space 4. Also, the resident can use the first key to lock and unlock the storage locker lock 53. The user of the second key is, for example, a delivery person (delivery provider) who delivers or picks up packages. The user of the second key can enter from the common corridor 11 into the entrance hall 3 by using the second key to unlock the entrance door lock 22. If the entrance hall 3 is used as a space to place packages to be delivered or picked up, the user of the second key can enter from the common corridor 11 into the entrance hall 3 by using the second key to unlock the entrance door lock 22 and deliver or pick up packages.

[0041] Thus, in the house 1 of the present embodiment, the entrance space 5 can be used as a space (luggage storage / retrieval space) where a delivery person or the like (deliverer) can place or pick up luggage without the resident directly witnessing. At this time, by setting the indoor door lock 43 in the locked state, entry of persons other than the resident into the living space 4 can be prevented.

[0042] As described above, in the present embodiment, the door 52 of the entrance storage 51 in the entrance space 5 is provided with a storage locker 53 that can be locked and unlocked with the first key of the resident. Therefore, by setting the storage locker 53 in the locked state, even when a person other than the resident such as a deliverer enters the entrance space 5, the person other than the resident can be prevented from opening the door 52 of the entrance storage 51. Further, as described above, in the present embodiment, a camera 54 capable of photographing the inside of the entrance space 5 is provided in the entrance space 5. Therefore, without the resident directly witnessing, when a person other than the resident enters the entrance space 5, the situation can be photographed.

[0043] The first key, the second key, the entrance door lock 22, the indoor door lock 43, and the storage locker 53 may each be a physical key or lock that is manually operated, or an electric lock or an electronic lock. Further, it may be a numeric keypad or the like. When the entrance door lock 22, the indoor door lock 43, and the storage locker 53 are electric locks or electronic locks, not only physical keys or card keys, but also operations performed by the user to unlock the electric locks or electronic locks also correspond to the first key and the second key.

[0044] Next, a locking and unlocking system that controls the locking and unlocking of the entrance door lock 22 and the indoor door lock 43 will be described. The locking and unlocking system 6 includes a control unit 61 that receives, as a signal, that each lock has been operated with a key and controls the locking and unlocking of the entrance door lock 22 and the indoor door lock 43, and an operation unit 62 that operates the control mode of the control unit 61.

[0045] The operation unit 62 is set to be operable only by the resident or a person who has been previously permitted by the resident. A person who has been previously permitted by the resident is, for example, a family member living separately, etc. The operation unit 62 is provided in either or both of the entrance space 5 and the living space 4. Further, the operation unit 62 may be portable so that the resident can operate it from outside the house 1. In the locking / unlocking system 6, the operations of locking and unlocking the front door lock 22, the interior door lock 43, and the storage locker lock 53 performed by the resident correspond to the first key of the present invention, and the operation of unlocking the front door lock 22 performed by a delivery person or the like permitted by the resident of the house corresponds to the second key of the present invention. The delivery person permitted by the resident of the house is set so that they cannot operate to unlock the interior door lock 43 and the storage locker lock 53.

[0046] Hereinafter, a state in which both the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43 are unlocked is referred to as the front door lock unlocked - interior door lock unlocked state. A state in which both the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43 are locked is referred to as the front door lock locked - interior door lock locked state. A state in which the front door lock 22 is unlocked and the interior door lock 43 is locked is referred to as the front door lock unlocked - interior door lock locked state. A state in which the front door lock 22 is locked and the interior door lock 43 is unlocked is referred to as the front door lock locked - interior door lock unlocked state.

[0047] In the locking / unlocking system 6 of the present embodiment, it is possible to interlock the locking and unlocking of the front door lock 22 and the locking and unlocking of the interior door lock 43. In the mode of interlocking the locking and unlocking of the front door lock 22 and the locking and unlocking of the interior door lock 43, the following controls (1) to (4) are performed.

[0048] (1) When an operation to unlock the front door lock 22 is performed by the first key and the control unit 61 receives a signal indicating that the front door lock 22 is in the unlocked state by the first key, the control unit 61 performs control to set the front door lock unlocked - interior door lock unlocked state. Thereby, the user of the first key, such as the resident, can unlock the interior door lock 43 in conjunction with unlocking the front door lock 22 with the first key.

[0049] (2) When an operation to unlock the front door lock 22 is performed by the second key and the control unit 61 receives a signal to set the front door lock 22 in the unlocked state by the second key, the control unit 61 performs control to set the front door lock in the unlocked state and the interior door lock in the locked state. That is, when the user of the second key, such as a delivery person, unlocks the front door lock 22 with the second key, if the interior door lock 43 is in the unlocked state, the interior door lock 43 is locked. As a result, the user of the second key can enter the entrance space 5 using the second key but cannot enter the living space 4. Note that it is preferable that the control unit 61 performs control to unlock the front door lock 22 and lock the interior door lock 43 simultaneously, or performs control to lock the interior door lock 43 first and then unlock the front door lock 22.

[0050] In addition, in the control of the above (2), when an operation to unlock the front door lock 22 is performed by the second key and the control unit 61 receives a signal to set the front door lock 22 in the unlocked state by the second key, the control unit 61 may perform control to set the front door lock in the unlocked state and the interior door lock in the locked state, and also lock the storage lock 53. Also, if there are locks other than the front door lock 22 in addition to the interior door lock 43 and the storage lock 53, when an operation to unlock the front door lock 22 is performed by the second key, the control unit may perform control to lock the locks other than the front door lock 22.

[0051] (3) When an operation to unlock the interior door lock 43 is performed and the control unit 61 receives a signal to set the interior door lock 43 in the unlocked state, the control unit 61 performs control to set the front door lock in the locked state and the interior door lock in the unlocked state. This can prevent a person other than the resident (a person without the first key) from entering the entrance space 5 from the outside when the resident travels between the entrance space 5 and the living space 4.

[0052] (4) When an operation to lock the interior door lock 43 is performed and the control unit 61 receives a signal to set the interior door lock 43 in the locked state, the control unit 61 performs control to set the front door lock in the locked state and the interior door lock in the locked state. This allows the resident who has entered the living space 4 to lock both the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43.

[0053] In addition, in the locking and unlocking system 6 of this embodiment, a mode of controlling the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43 independently without linking them is also possible. In the locking and unlocking system 6, the resident can select between a mode of linking the locking and unlocking of the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43 and a mode of controlling them independently by operating the operation unit 62.

[0054] The unlocking of the interior door lock 43 may be set such that it can be unlocked using the first key from the entrance space 5 side, and can also be unlocked without the first key from the living space 4 side. In such a case, in order to prevent a resident who enters the entrance space 5 from the living space 4 without carrying the first key from being unable to return to the living space 4 because the interior door lock 43 is in the locked state, it may be set as follows. After the interior door lock 43 is unlocked without using the first key from the living space 4 side, if a signal to set the interior door lock 43 to the locked state is received regardless of whether it is in the independent control mode or the linked control mode, a warning may be issued with a warning sound or the like without setting the interior door lock 43 to the locked state, so as to prevent a resident who has entered the entrance space 5 from the living space 4 from being unable to return to the living space 4.

[0055] Next, the operation and effects of the house 1 and the locking and unlocking system 6 according to the above-described first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, a resident using the first key can unlock both the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43, and can enter the living space 4 from the outside through the front space 5. A user of the second key can unlock the front door lock 22 but cannot unlock the interior door lock 43, and can enter the front space 5 from the outside but cannot enter the living space 4. That is, the user of the second key can open the front door 21 and enter only the front space 5 from the outside. Thus, if a delivery person or the like (delivery worker) can use the second key, it becomes possible to enter the front space 5 and deliver / collect packages without the resident being present directly, which is convenient. And by doing so, the front space 5 can be used as a space (referred to as a package delivery / collection space) where a delivery worker can enter and deliver / collect packages without the resident being present directly. Therefore, compared with the case where a package delivery / collection space is provided separately from the front space, in the present invention, the package delivery / collection space can be provided without being affected by the site conditions or causing any hindrance to the interior plan.

[0056] In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, with respect to the wall surface provided in the house 1 and in contact with the access surface to the outside, the installable door position is only the position of the front door 21. In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, in order to use the front space 5 as a package delivery / collection space, there is no need to provide a door for access to the outside other than the front door 21 in order to provide a package delivery / collection space. For this reason, the only door that can be installed with respect to the wall surface in contact with the access surface to the outside is the front door 21, and even if only the front door 21 is used as the door for access to the outside, the package delivery / collection space can be provided without being affected by the site conditions or causing any hindrance to the interior plan. As in this embodiment, even in a house where the only spaces that can be installed along the wall surface in contact with the access surface to the outside are the entrance 2 and the plumbing space, and no door for access other than the front door 21 can be provided, the front space can be used as a package delivery / collection space.

[0057] In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, a front door storage 51 is provided in the entrance space 5, and a storage locker 53 is provided on the door 52 of the front door storage 51. With such a configuration, even if a user of a second key such as a delivery person enters the entrance space from the outside, it is possible to prevent the door 52 of the front door storage 51 from being opened.

[0058] In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, unlocking the interior door lock 43 from the entrance space 5 requires the first key, while unlocking the interior door lock 43 from the living space 4 does not require the first key. With such a configuration, a user of the first key such as a resident unlocks the interior door lock 43 using one key when entering the living space 4 from the entrance space 5, but can unlock it without using the first key when entering the entrance space 5 from the living space 4.

[0059] In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, when the front door lock 22 is unlocked with the first key, the interior door lock 43 is also unlocked. With such a configuration, when a user of the first key such as a resident enters the house 1 from the outside, if the front door lock 22 is unlocked with the first key, the interior door lock 43 is also unlocked, so an operation for unlocking the interior door lock 43 separate from the operation of unlocking the front door lock 22 becomes unnecessary, and it is convenient to use.

[0060] In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, when the front door lock 22 is unlocked with the second key, the interior door lock 43 is locked. With such a configuration, when a user of the second key such as a delivery person unlocks the front door lock 22 with the second key, even if the interior door lock 43 is in an unlocked state, since the interior door lock 43 is locked, it is possible to enter the entrance space 5 but not enter the living space 4.

[0061] In the house 1 according to the first embodiment, the entrance space 5 has an entrance 2 that can communicate with the outside and an entrance hall 3. With such a configuration, the entrance 2 and the entrance hall 3 can be used as a luggage storage and collection space.

[0062] Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. For members and parts that are the same as or similar to those in the above-described first embodiment, the same reference numerals will be used and the description thereof will be omitted, and a configuration different from that of the first embodiment will be described.

[0063] (Second Embodiment) As shown in FIG. 2, the house 1B according to the second embodiment is a detached house and is configured to access the interior by opening the front door 21 from the outside 13. The front door 21 is provided on the outer wall facing the road 14. In the house 1 of the second embodiment, the distance between the adjacent lot boundary line 15 and the outer wall 16 facing the adjacent lot boundary line 15 is narrow, and the space between the adjacent lot boundary line 15 and the outer wall 16 is assumed to have dimensions that make it difficult for people to pass through. For this reason, the outer wall 16 facing the adjacent lot boundary line 15 is not provided with entrances and exits such as side doors. Also in the second embodiment, the only door used for the passage between the inside and the outside of the house 1 is the front door 21. The entrance 2 and the living space 4 are provided on the access surface facing the road 14 in the house 1B. Here, the access surface is the surface on which the door for a person to enter the interior of the house 1B from the outside is installed. The surfaces other than the access surface are the parking space and the surface near the adjacent lot boundary line 15, and it is not possible to install a door that can communicate with the outside.

[0064] The house 1B according to the second embodiment also has an entrance 2, an entrance hall 3, and a living space 4, similar to the first embodiment. In the entrance space 5, for example, an entrance storage 51 (storage) for storing shoes and the like is provided, and a storage locker 53 that can be locked and unlocked with the key for the entrance storage (second key) of the resident is provided on the door 52 of the entrance storage 51. The house 1B according to the second embodiment also includes a first key that can lock and unlock the front door lock 22, the interior door lock 43, and the storage locker lock 53, and a second key that can unlock the front door lock 22 but cannot lock and unlock the interior door lock 43 and the storage locker lock 53, similar to the first embodiment.

[0065] Also in the second embodiment, a locking and unlocking system 6B for controlling the locking and unlocking of the front door lock 22 and the interior door lock 43 similar to those in the first embodiment is provided.

[0066] In the house 1 and the locking and unlocking system 6 according to the second embodiment, the same effects as those in the first embodiment are achieved.

[0067] (Third Embodiment) As shown in FIG. 3, in the house 1C according to the third embodiment, instead of the living space 4 (see FIG. 1) in the first embodiment, two living spaces are provided adjacent to the entrance space 5. The two living spaces are the first living space 71 and the second living space 72. The first living space 71 and the second living space are partitioned by a wall 73.
