Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] By the way, as described in paragraph

[0019] of Patent Document 1, the system for specifying inheritance order (bank inheritance procedure support method) described in Patent Document 1 requires "a household register transcript from the birth to the death of the decedent and the current household register transcript of the legal heirs".

[0005] Financial institutions such as banks usually do not require heirs to submit their household register transcripts, even when they require heirs to submit the decedent's household register transcript and the seal registration certificate of the heirs. Therefore, the system for specifying inheritance order (bank inheritance procedure support method) described in Patent Document 1 places an extra burden on heirs by requiring them to submit their household register transcripts.

[0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a system for specifying inheritance order that can specify the inheritance order of heirs with less materials.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0007] The inheritance rank determination system according to the first aspect of the present invention is a system that determines the inheritance rank of an heir from the household register transcript of the decedent and the seal registration certificate of the heir. The inheritance rank determination system includes an image acquisition unit, an image analysis unit, a first rank determination unit, a second rank determination unit, and a third rank determination unit. The image acquisition unit acquires a household register image and a seal certificate image respectively showing images of the household register transcript and the seal registration certificate. The image analysis unit analyzes the household register image and the seal certificate image to generate household register information and seal certificate information regarding the household register transcript and the seal registration certificate. The first rank determination unit, the second rank determination unit, and the third rank determination unit respectively determine that the heir is the first rank, the second rank, and the third rank based on the household register information and the seal certificate information. The household register information includes the date of birth of the decedent, which is the date of birth of the decedent recorded in the household register transcript, the names of the decedent's father and mother, which are the father's name and the mother's name, and if the name of the decedent's child is recorded in the household register transcript, the name of the child, which is the child's name. The seal certificate information includes the name of the heir and the date of birth of the heir, which are the name of the heir and the date of birth of the heir. The first rank determination unit determines the inheritance rank of the heir as the first rank when the child's name and the heir's name are the same. The second rank determination unit determines the inheritance rank of the heir as the second rank when the father's name or the mother's name and the heir's name are the same. The third rank determination unit determines the inheritance rank of the heir as the third rank when none of the child's name, the father's name, and the mother's name are the same as the heir's name, and when the date of birth of the decedent is within the period between the dates of birth of a plurality of heirs, or when the difference between the date of birth of the decedent and the date of birth of the heir is less than a predetermined number of years.

Effect of the Invention

[0008] According to the inheritance rank determination system of the present invention, the inheritance rank of an heir can be determined with a small amount of materials.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, the same or corresponding parts are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description will not be repeated. [Embodiment 1]

[0011] First, with reference to FIG. 1, the inheritance order identification system 100 according to Embodiment 1 and its surrounding configuration will be described. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the inheritance order identification system 100 according to Embodiment 1 and its surrounding configuration.

[0012] As shown in FIG. 1, the inheritance order identification system 100 is a system that identifies the inheritance order of an heir from the household register transcript R of the decedent and the seal registration certificate C of the heir. The inheritance order identification system 100 is stored in the terminal device 1. The household register transcript R of the decedent and the seal registration certificate C of the heir are read by the image reading device P. The household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP, which are images read by the image reading device P, are transmitted to the terminal device 1 via the network N.

[0013] The image reading device P is a device that reads images by scanning, photographing, etc., and can be, for example, a scanner P1, a camera P2, or a smartphone P3. The image reading device P generates a household register image RP showing an image of the household register transcript R of the decedent by reading the household register transcript R of the decedent. The image reading device P generates a seal certificate image CP showing an image of the seal registration certificate C of the heir by reading the seal registration certificate C of the heir.

[0014] The network N enables communication between the image reading device P and the terminal device 1. The network N can include at least one of, for example, a LAN (Local Area Network), a wireless LAN, a mobile phone communication network, infrared communication, and Bluetooth (registered trademark).

[0015] The terminal device 1 is a terminal used by a user and can be, for example, a desktop personal computer, a laptop personal computer, a tablet terminal, a wearable terminal, or a smartphone. The terminal device 1 includes a housing 11, a display unit 12, an operation unit 13, a control unit 14, and a storage unit 15.

[0016] The display unit 12 includes, for example, a liquid crystal display, an organic electroluminescence display, and the like. The operation unit 13 includes a keyboard, a mouse, a track pad, a touch panel, and the like. The control unit 14 includes a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), for example. The storage unit 15 includes a storage device such as a semiconductor memory and a hard disk drive (HDD). The control unit 14 controls the display unit 12, the operation unit 13, and the storage unit 15. The storage unit 15 stores data, computer programs, and the like.

[0017] Next, with reference to FIG. 2, the succession order determination system 100 will be described. FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram of the succession order determination system 100 according to Embodiment 1.

[0018] For example, the storage unit 15 stores a program for determining the succession order of successors (hereinafter referred to as the succession order determination program). The control unit 14 can execute the succession order determination program. The control unit 14 includes an image acquisition unit 41, an image analysis unit 42, and a succession order determination unit 50. Specifically, the control unit 14 functions as the image acquisition unit 41, the image analysis unit 42, and the succession order determination unit 50 by executing the succession order determination program. The control unit 14 and the storage unit 15 constitute the succession order determination system 100.

[0019] The image acquisition unit 41 acquires the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP in a data format from the network N. The image acquisition unit 41 transmits the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP to the image analysis unit 42 or the storage unit 15 as necessary.

[0020] The image analysis unit 42 analyzes the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP to generate household register information RI and seal certificate information CI regarding the household register transcript R and the seal registration certificate C. The household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP to be analyzed are the data transmitted from the image acquisition unit 41 to the image analysis unit 42, or the data accessed by the image analysis unit 42 from the storage unit 15.

[0021] The image analysis unit 42 performs OCR (Optical Character Recognition) processing and recognizes the characters included in the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP. Specifically, as a result of the OCR processing, the image analysis unit 42 acquires the characters included in the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP as text data. In addition, the image analysis unit 42 acquires arrangement information indicating the arrangement of the characters in the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP. The arrangement information indicates, for example, the orientation and position of the characters included in the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP.

[0022] Based on the recognized characters, the image analysis unit 42 generates the household register information RI and the seal certificate information CI. Specifically, the image analysis unit 42 generates the household register information RI and the seal certificate information CI based on the acquired text data and arrangement information. The image analysis unit 42 transmits the household register information RI and the seal certificate information CI to the succession order specifying unit 50 or the storage unit 15 as necessary.

[0023] The household register information RI includes the date of birth of the decedent (hereinafter referred to as the decedent's date of birth) described in the household register transcript R and the names of the decedent's parents (hereinafter referred to as the father's name and the mother's name). In addition, the household register information RI includes the name of the child (hereinafter referred to as the child's name) if the name of the decedent's child is described in the household register transcript R. The household register information RI may include other information described in the household register transcript R in addition to the decedent's date of birth, father's name, mother's name, and child's name.

[0024] The seal certificate information CI includes the name of the successor (hereinafter referred to as the successor's name) and the date of birth of the successor (hereinafter referred to as the successor's date of birth). The seal certificate information CI may include other information described in the seal registration certificate C in addition to the successor's name and the successor's date of birth.

[0025] Based on the household register information RI and the seal certificate information CI, the succession order specifying unit 50 specifies whether the succession order of the successor is the first order, the second order, or the third order. The household register information RI and the seal certificate information CI used by the succession order specifying unit 50 are the data transmitted from the image analysis unit 42 to the succession order specifying unit 50 or the data accessed by the succession order specifying unit 50 from the storage unit 15.

[0026] The succession order specifying unit 50 includes a first-order specifying unit 51, a second-order specifying unit 52, and a third-order specifying unit 53. The first-order specifying unit 51 specifies that the succession order of the heir is the first order. The second-order specifying unit 52 specifies that the succession order of the heir is the second order. The third-order specifying unit 53 specifies that the succession order of the heir is the third order.

[0027] The first-order specifying unit 51 specifies the succession order of the heir as the first order when the child's name and the heir's name are the same. The second-order specifying unit 52 specifies the succession order of the heir as the second order when the father's name or the mother's name and the heir's name are the same.

[0028] The third-order specifying unit 53 specifies the succession order of the heir as the third order when none of the child's name, the father's name, and the mother's name is the same as the heir's name, when the decedent's date of birth is between the dates of birth of multiple heirs, or when the difference between the decedent's date of birth and the heir's date of birth is less than a predetermined number of years.

[0029] The predetermined number of years is a number of years such that if the age difference is greater than or equal to that number, they are considered parent and child, and if the age difference is less than that number, they are considered siblings. Therefore, the predetermined number of years is, for example, the legal age of marriage or a number of years several years older than that. Hereinafter, the predetermined number of years is set to "18 years" (the legal age of marriage as of the 6th year of Reiwa).

[0030] Thus, the information necessary for specifying the succession order is only the household register information RI and the seal certificate information CI, that is, only the information recorded in the household register transcript R of the decedent and the seal registration certificate C of the heir. Therefore, the succession order specifying system 100 does not require the household register transcript of the heir and can specify the succession order of the heir with less materials.

[0031] Although not shown in the drawings, the inheritance order identification system 100 may include an API (Application Programming Interface). Through the API, the inheritance order identification system 100 can share information with an external terminal (not shown) that executes a program different from the consultation order identification program.

[0032] Next, further processing of the first-order identification unit 51 and the second-order identification unit 52 will be described.

[0033] When the inheritance order of the heir is not identified as the third order by the third-order identification unit 53 and the birth date of the decedent is older than the birth date of the heir, the first-order identification unit 51 identifies the inheritance order of the heir as the first order.

[0034] When the inheritance order of the heir is not identified as the third order by the third-order identification unit 53 and the birth date of the decedent is newer than the birth date of the heir, the second-order identification unit 52 identifies the inheritance order of the heir as the second order.

[0035] In this way, when the inheritance order of the heir is not identified as the third order by the third-order identification unit 53, that is, when the difference between the birth date of the decedent and the birth date of the heir is equal to or more than a predetermined number of years, the inheritance order of the heir can be identified as the first order or the second order. Therefore, the inheritance order identification system 100 does not require the household register transcript of the heir and can accurately identify the inheritance order of the heir with less materials.

[0036] Hereinafter, with reference to not only FIG. 2 but also FIGS. 3 to 8B, the processing by the inheritance order identification unit 50 will be described based on a specific household register transcript R and seal registration certificate C.

[0037] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the household register transcript R of the decedent. FIG. 4A is a diagram showing an example of the seal registration certificate C of the heir. FIG. 4B is a diagram showing the household register information RI based on FIG. 3 and the seal certificate information CI based on FIG. 4A. FIG. 5A is a diagram showing an example of the seal registration certificate C of the heir. FIG. 5B is a diagram showing the household register information RI based on FIG. 3 and the seal certificate information CI based on FIG. 5A. FIG. 6A is a diagram showing an example of the seal registration certificates C of two heirs. FIG. 6B is a diagram showing the household register information RI based on FIG. 3 and the seal certificate information CI based on FIG. 6A. FIG. 7A is a diagram showing an example of the seal registration certificate C of the heir. FIG. 7B is a diagram showing the household register information RI based on FIG. 3 and the seal certificate information CI based on FIG. 7A. FIG. 8A is a diagram showing an example of the seal registration certificate C of the heir. FIG. 8B is a diagram showing the household register information RI based on FIG. 3 and the seal certificate information CI based on FIG. 8A.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 3, the household register transcript R records the household register of the decedent "Jiro Yamada" (reference sign Rn). From this household register transcript R, the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" (reference sign Rb), the father's name "Taro Yamada" (reference sign Rf), the mother's name "Hanako Yamada" (reference sign Rm), and the child's name "Kojiro Yamada" (reference sign Rc) are generated as household register information RI. Regarding the child's name, although only the child's name "Kojiro" (without the surname) is recorded in the household register transcript R, the child's surname is obtained by adding the decedent's surname "Yamada" before the child's name "Kojiro", resulting in "Yamada Kojiro".

[0039] Suppose the seal registration certificate C of "Kojiro Yamada" is submitted to the user as shown in FIG. 4A. In this case, as shown in FIG. 4B, in the generated seal certificate information CI, the heir's name is "Kojiro Yamada" (reference sign Cn). The first-rank identification unit 51 determines that the child's name "Kojiro Yamada" (reference sign Rc) in the household register information RI is the same as the heir's name "Kojiro Yamada" (reference sign Cn) in the seal certificate information CI. As a result, the first-rank identification unit 51 identifies the heir rank of "Kojiro Yamada", who is the heir recorded in the seal registration certificate C, as the first rank.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 5A, assume that the seal registration certificate C of "Yamada Taro" is submitted to the user. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5B, in the seal certification information CI generated, the heir's name is "Yamada Taro" (reference sign Cn). The second-rank specifying unit 52 determines that the father's name "Yamada Taro" (reference sign Rf) among the father's name "Yamada Taro" and the mother's name "Yamada Hanako" in the household register information RI is the same as the heir's name "Yamada Taro" (reference sign Cn) in the seal certification information CI. As a result, the second-rank specifying unit 52 specifies the succession rank of "Yamada Taro", who is the heir described in the seal registration certificate C, as the second rank.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 6A, assume that the seal registration certificates C (reference signs C1 and C2) of "Yamada Ichiro" and "Yamada Sueko" are submitted to the user. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6B, in the seal certification information CI generated, the heir's names are "Yamada Ichiro" and "Yamada Sueko", and the respective heir's dates of birth are "September 1, 1964" (reference sign C1b) and "July 1, 1972" (reference sign C2b). The third-rank specifying unit 53 determines that none of the child's name "Yamada Kojiro", the father's name "Yamada Taro", and the mother's name "Yamada Hanako" in the household register information RI is the same as the heir's names "Yamada Ichiro" and "Yamada Sueko" in the seal certification information CI. Also, it is determined that the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" (reference sign Rb) is in the period between the heir's date of birth "September 1, 1964" (reference sign C1b) of "Yamada Ichiro" and the heir's date of birth "July 1, 1972" (reference sign C2b) of "Yamada Sueko". As a result, the third-rank specifying unit 53 specifies the succession ranks of "Yamada Ichiro" and "Yamada Sueko", who are the heirs described in the seal registration certificate C, as the third rank.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 7A, assume that the seal registration certificate C of "Saburo Yamada" is submitted to the user. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7B, in the seal certification information CI generated, the heir's name is "Saburo Yamada", and the heir's date of birth is "June 1, 1971" (reference symbol Cb). The third-rank specifying unit 53 determines that none of the child's name "Kojiro Yamada", father's name "Taro Yamada", and mother's name "Hanako Yamada" in the household register information RI is the same as the heir's name "Saburo Yamada" in the seal certification information CI. Also, the third-rank specifying unit 53 determines that "5 years and 5 months", which is the difference between the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" (reference symbol Rb) and the heir's date of birth "June 1, 1971" (reference symbol Cb), is less than the predetermined number of years (18 years). As a result, the third-rank specifying unit 53 specifies the heir rank of "Saburo Yamada", who is the heir described in the seal registration certificate C, as the third rank.

[0043] As shown in FIG. 8A, assume that the seal registration certificate C of "Kohiko Kimura" is submitted to the user. In this case, as shown in FIG. 8B, in the seal certification information CI generated, the heir's name is "Kohiko Kimura", and the heir's date of birth is "August 1, 1996" (reference symbol Cb). The third-rank specifying unit 53 determines that none of the child's name "Kojiro Yamada", father's name "Taro Yamada", and mother's name "Hanako Yamada" in the household register information RI is the same as the heir's name "Kohiko Kimura" in the seal certification information CI. Also, the third-rank specifying unit 53 determines that "30 years and 7 months", which is the difference between the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" (reference symbol Rb) and the heir's date of birth "August 1, 1996" (reference symbol Cb), is equal to or more than the predetermined number of years (18 years). As a result, the third-rank specifying unit 53 does not specify the heir rank of "Kohiko Kimura", who is the heir described in the seal registration certificate C, as the third rank.

[0044] Next, the first-rank specifying unit 51 determines that the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" (reference symbol Rb) is older than the heir's date of birth "August 1, 1996" (reference symbol Cb). As a result, the first-rank specifying unit 51 specifies the heir rank of "Kohiko Kimura", who is the heir described in the seal registration certificate C, as the first rank.

[0045] Suppose that the date of birth of the heir is not "August 1, 1996", but is older than the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" by a certain number of years or more, for example, "January 1, 1946". In this case, the second-rank specifying unit 52 determines that the decedent's date of birth "January 1, 1966" is newer than the heir's date of birth "January 1, 1946". As a result, the second-rank specifying unit 52 specifies the heir's inheritance rank as the second rank in the seal registration certificate C.

[0046] Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10, the operation of the inheritance rank specifying system 100 will be described. FIG. 9 is the first half of a flowchart showing the operation of the inheritance rank specifying system 100. FIG. 10 is the second half of a flowchart showing the operation of the inheritance rank specifying system 100.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 9, in step S1, the image acquisition unit 41 acquires the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP. In step S2, the image analysis unit 42 analyzes the household register image RP and the seal certificate image CP to generate household register information RI and seal certificate information CI.

[0048] In step S3, the first-rank specifying unit 51 determines whether there is a child's name in the household register information RI. If there is a child's name in the household register information RI (Yes in step S3), the process proceeds to step S4. If there is no child's name in the household register information RI (No in step S3), the process proceeds to step S6.

[0049] In step S4, the first-rank specifying unit 51 determines whether the child's name and the heir's name are the same. If the child's name and the heir's name are the same (Yes in step S4), the first-rank specifying unit 51 specifies the heir's inheritance rank as the first rank (step S5). If the child's name and the heir's name are not the same (No in step S4), the process proceeds to step S6.

[0050] In step S6, the second-rank specifying unit 52 determines whether the father's name or mother's name is the same as the heir's name. If the father's name or mother's name is the same as the heir's name (Yes in step S6), the second-rank specifying unit 52 specifies the heir's inheritance rank as the second rank (step S7). If the father's name or mother's name is not the same as the heir's name (No in step S6), the process proceeds to step S8 shown in FIG. 10.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 10, in step S8, the third-rank specifying unit 53 determines whether there are multiple seal registration certificates C of the heir. If there are multiple seal registration certificates C (Yes in step S8), the process proceeds to step S9. If there are not multiple seal registration certificates C (No in step S8), the process proceeds to step S11.

[0052] In step S9, the third-rank specifying unit 53 determines whether the decedent's date of birth is within the period between the dates of birth of multiple heirs. If the decedent's date of birth is within the period between the dates of birth of multiple heirs (Yes in step S9), the third-rank specifying unit 53 specifies the multiple heirs as the third rank (step S10). If the decedent's date of birth is not within the period between the dates of birth of multiple heirs (No in step S9), the process proceeds to step S11.

[0053] In step S11, the third-rank specifying unit 53 determines whether the difference between the decedent's date of birth and the heir's date of birth is less than a predetermined number of years. If the difference between the decedent's date of birth and the heir's date of birth is less than a predetermined number of years (Yes in step S11), the third-rank specifying unit 53 specifies the heir as the third rank (step S10). If the difference between the decedent's date of birth and the heir's date of birth is greater than or equal to a predetermined number of years (No in step S11), the process proceeds to step S12.

[0054] In step S12, the first-rank specifying unit 51 or the second-rank specifying unit 52 determines whether the decedent's date of birth is older or newer than the heir's date of birth. If the decedent's date of birth is older than the heir's date of birth (Yes in step S12), the first-rank specifying unit 51 specifies the heir as the first rank (step S13). If the decedent's date of birth is newer than the heir's date of birth (No in step S12), the second-rank specifying unit 52 specifies the heir as the second rank (step S14). [Embodiment 2]

[0055] Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 11, the inheritance rank specifying system 100 according to Embodiment 2 will be described. FIG. 11 is a functional block diagram of the inheritance rank specifying system 100 according to Embodiment 2.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 11, the inheritance rank specifying system 100 according to Embodiment 2 is a system further including a modification reception unit 60 and a diagram generation unit 70. That is, the inheritance rank specifying system 100 according to Embodiment 2 is obtained by adding the modification reception unit 60 and the diagram generation unit 70 to the inheritance rank specifying system 100 according to Embodiment 1. The modification reception unit 60 and the diagram generation unit 70 constitute the control unit 14 of the inheritance rank specifying system 100 according to Embodiment 2.

[0057] The modification reception unit 60 receives a modification of the specified inheritance rank when the inheritance rank of the heir is specified. The inheritance rank specified by the inheritance rank specifying unit 50 is based on a small amount of materials and may be an incorrect inheritance rank, and is in a provisional state. The modification reception unit 60 makes the inheritance rank in a confirmed state by changing the incorrect inheritance rank to the correct inheritance rank. The modification reception unit 60 is connected to the operation unit 13 and is configured to be able to receive the correct inheritance rank input from the operation unit 13.

[0058] Therefore, since the inheritance rank specifying system 100 can have the specified inheritance rank modified by the modification reception unit 60, the versatility can be enhanced.

[0059] The amendment reception unit 60 may receive the amendment of the specified succession order only when the succession order is specified as the third order and / or only when the succession order is specified as the first order or the second order because the difference between the decedent's date of birth and the successor's date of birth is equal to or more than a predetermined number of years. This is because there is little need to amend the specified succession order in other cases.

[0060] When the succession order of the successor is specified, the diagram generation unit 70 generates a succession relationship explanatory diagram including the specified succession order. Therefore, the succession order specifying system 100 can accurately specify the successor's date of birth of the successor with a small amount of materials and generate a succession relationship explanatory diagram including the succession order.

[0061] Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 12, a succession relationship explanatory diagram based on the specific household register transcript R and seal registration certificate C shown in FIGS. 3 to 8B will be described. FIG. 12 is a succession relationship explanatory diagram generated by the succession order specifying system 100 according to the second embodiment.

[0062] As shown in FIG. 12, in the succession relationship explanatory diagram, the relationship between the decedent and the successor is shown as a tree. The succession relationship explanatory diagram shown in FIG. 12 is a case where the seal registration certificates C of FIGS. 4A, 5A, 6A, 7A and 8A are submitted to the user. In the succession relationship explanatory diagram of FIG. 12, the decedent is indicated by reference numeral 3R, and the successors whose succession orders are specified are indicated by reference numerals 4A, 5A, 6A, 7A and 8A.
