[0026] Hereinafter, an information integrated processing apparatus according to the present invention to which the program of the present invention used in the method of the present invention is applied will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0027] An example of the configuration of a door unlocking system including an information integrated processing device 100 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of a door unlocking system including an information integrated processing device 100.

[0028] The information integrated processing apparatus 100 includes a control unit 101, a communication interface 102, and a database 103. The units included in the information integrated processing apparatus 100 are connected to each other so as to be able to communicate with each other via any communication path.

[0029] The communication interface 102 communicatively connects the information integrated processing device 100 to the network 200 via a communication device such as a router and a wired or wireless communication line such as a dedicated line. The communication interface 102 has a function of communicating data with an external device via the communication line.

[0030] The network 200 has a function of connecting the information integrated processing device 100 to external devices such as the entry terminal 301a, the exit terminal 301b, the user terminal 400, the power supply control device 305, and the electric lock management device 302 so that they can communicate with each other, and a function of connecting external devices to each other so that they can communicate with each other, and is, for example, the Internet or a LAN (Local Area Network). The information integrated processing device 100 may also be connected to external devices other than the entry terminal 301a, the exit terminal 301b, the user terminal 400, the power supply control device 305, and the electric lock management device 302 via the network 200.

[0031] Door 301c is provided at entrance 301 of base 300 where the section to be managed is located, and a user (service user or administrator) can enter or exit base 300 through door 301c. Near door 301c, an entry terminal 301a is installed outside entrance 301, with door 301c or a wall in between, and an exit terminal 301b is installed inside entrance 301, and each is connected to network 200 so as to be able to communicate with network 200.

[0032] The electric lock management device 302 manages the locking and unlocking of one or more doors 301c.

[0033] The electric lock control device 302 constantly communicates with the information central processing device 100 and maintains a state of inquiry as to whether or not there is a request to unlock the door 301c under the control of the electric lock control device 302.

[0034] When the electric lock management device 302 receives an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c output by the information central processing device 100, the electric lock management device 302 outputs the instruction to unlock the door 301c to the conversion device 303. The electric lock management device 302 is connected to one or more conversion devices 303. The electric lock management device 302 receives the device identification information of the conversion device 303 along with the instruction to unlock the door 301c output to the conversion device 303, and outputs an unlock instruction to the conversion device 303 corresponding to the received device identification information based on the received device identification information.

[0035] The conversion device 303 is connected to the electric lock control panel 304 of one door 301c. The conversion device 303 unlocks the door 301c via the electric lock control panel 304 corresponding to the door 301c. When the conversion device 303 receives an instruction to unlock the door 301c from the electric lock management device 302, it unlocks the door 301c via the electric lock control panel 304 corresponding to the door 301c.

[0036] For example, one electric lock control panel 304 is connected to each door 301c, and controls the locking and unlocking of the electric lock installed on the door 301c. The electric lock control panel 304 unlocks the door 301c by unlocking the electric lock of the door 301c in accordance with the unlocking instruction from the conversion device 303.

[0037] The electric lock control panel 304 may be configured to lock the door 301c when it detects one door opening and closing after unlocking the door 301c in response to an unlock command from the conversion device 303. The electric lock control panel 304 may also be configured to automatically lock the door 301c a predetermined time after unlocking the door 301c in response to an unlock command from the conversion device 303. The predetermined time before locking can be set arbitrarily and is preferably set to a time that prevents entry by anyone other than the user (service user or administrator) and roommates, while not hindering the user (service user or administrator) or roommates from entering or exiting the room. The predetermined time before locking may be, for example, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes after unlocking the door 301c in response to an unlock command from the conversion device 303. Such unlocking and locking control requires connection to a power source.

[0038] The electric lock control panel 304 is configured such that when the power supply to the electric lock is cut off while the door 301c is locked, the electric lock is unlocked, thereby unlocking the door 301c, and when the power supply to the electric lock is released and power is restored after the power supply to the electric lock is cut off, the electric lock is relocked, thereby locking the door 301c. The power supply to the electric lock can be cut off and released by, for example, the power supply control device 305.

[0039] The power control device 305 is a device that manages the power supply to one or more doors 301c and can receive emails containing commands to lock or unlock the doors. The power control device 305 may be configured to query a mail server (not shown) at predetermined time intervals to check whether or not an email has been sent to the power control device 305, and, if the query indicates that an email has been sent to the power control device 305, to receive the email. The time interval at which the power control device 305 queries the mail server may be, for example, every 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, or 1 minute. The mail server for the power control device 305 is communicatively connected to the network 200.

[0040] The email received by the power supply control device 305 may be an email that is automatically generated by the information integrated processing device 100 and automatically sent from the information integrated processing device 100 to the power supply control device 305, or an email that is manually created and sent by a user (service administrator). This specification describes only an embodiment in which the power supply control device 305 receives an email that is automatically generated by the information integrated processing device 100, but such an email can also be replaced with an email created by a user (service administrator), and can be sent via a user terminal 400 that is communicatively connected to the network 200.

[0041] When the power supply control device 305 receives an email containing an unlocking command, it cuts off the power supply electrically connected to the door 301c under its jurisdiction, unlocking the door 301c. More specifically, the power supply control device 305 is electrically connected to an electric lock control panel that controls the electric lock of the door, and when it receives an email containing an unlocking command, it cuts off the power supply to the electric lock control panel 304 of the door 301c under its jurisdiction, thereby cutting off the power supply to the electric lock control panel 304 and unlocking the door 301c.

[0042] After power supply to door 301c is cut off, when power supply control device 305 receives an email containing a command to lock door 301c, it uncuts the power supply electrically connected to door 301c under its jurisdiction, turns on the power, and locks door 301c. More specifically, when power supply control device 305 receives an email containing a command to lock door 301c, it uncuts the power supply to electric lock control panel 304 of door 301c under its jurisdiction, thereby restoring power to electric lock control panel 304 and locking door 301c.

[0043] Various types of data are stored in the database 103. Computer programs that work in conjunction with an OS (Operating System) to issue commands to a CPU (Central Processing Unit) to perform various processes are recorded in the database 103. The storage unit 106 can be, for example, a memory device such as a RAM (Random Access Memory) or a ROM (Read Only Memory), a fixed disk device such as a hard disk, a flexible disk, or an optical disk.

[0044] The control unit 101 is a CPU or the like that performs overall control of the information integrated processing device 100. The control unit 102 has an internal memory for storing control programs such as an OS, programs that define various processing procedures, required data, etc., and executes various information processing operations based on these stored programs.

[0045] The control unit 101 includes a normal entry reception unit 101a that receives an unlocking request for normal entry, a matching determination unit 101b that performs matching determination, an inquiry reception unit 101c that receives an inquiry from the electric lock management device 302 about whether or not there is an unlocking request, an unlock instruction unit 101d that outputs an unlocking instruction to the electric lock management device 302, a determination result transmission unit 101e that transmits a notification of the determination result to each terminal, a reservation reception unit 101f that receives a reservation time, a new reservation registration unit 101g that registers a reservation time, a temporary entry reception unit 101h that receives an unlocking request for temporary entry, a temporary entry time determination unit 101i that determines the time for temporary entry, an exit reception unit 101j that receives an unlocking request for exit, and a fee calculation unit 101f that calculates a usage fee according to the usage record including an overtime fee. a unit 101k that issues a two-dimensional code, a remote unlocking reception unit 101m that receives a request for remote unlocking, a log storage unit 101n that stores an unlocking log in a database, a batch operation reception unit 101o that receives a request for a batch operation to unlock or lock one or more doors, a batch operation sending unit 101p that sends an email including an unlocking command or a locking command, a batch operation start notification unit 101q that sends an email including a notification of the start of the batch operation, a batch operation result receiving unit 101r that receives an email including information on the unlocking result or the locking result, a batch operation list generation unit 101s that generates a list of the unlocking or locking results, and a batch operation result notification unit 101t that sends an email including information on the unlocking or locking result.

[0046] The configuration of the control unit 101 in the information integrated processing device 100 will be described in detail with reference to Figures 2 and 3, along with a specific example of the flow of information processing. Figure 2 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of information processing for unlocking a door by the information integrated processing device 100. Figure 3 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of information processing for collective operation by the information integrated processing device 100.

[0047] First, the information processing when a user (service user or administrator) enters the base 300 using the entrance terminal 301a will be described with reference to FIG.

[0048] When a user (service user or administrator) wishes to enter the predetermined location 300, the user requests unlocking by presenting an identification image to the entrance terminal 301a installed at the entrance / exit 301 of the predetermined location 300 (S101-0). The identification image includes personal identification information of the user (service user or administrator), making it possible to identify the user (service user or administrator) attempting to enter. The entrance terminal 301a can read a two-dimensional code as the identification image using image identification means such as a camera. The two-dimensional code is issued by the two-dimensional code issuing unit 101l for each personal identification information registered in the database 103, and the two-dimensional code issuing unit 101l outputs the issued two-dimensional code in response to the user's request.

[0049] In response to a request from a user (service user), the two-dimensional code issuing unit 101l can issue an identification image for room companion entry, in addition to the identification image for the user (service user) to enter the room, in case there is a room companion with the user (service user). The identification image for room companion entry may be issued temporarily and may be valid only for a specific reservation time.

[0050] Fig. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the entry terminal 301a displaying an initial screen. The user (service user or administrator) taps the "Authenticate" button on the initial screen shown in Fig. 4 displayed on the display, causing the entry terminal 301a to read a two-dimensional code using image recognition means such as a camera equipped on the entry terminal 301a. The two-dimensional code read by the entry terminal 301a may be one displayed on a display equipped on a terminal held by the user (service user or administrator) or a roommate, or may be one printed on paper in advance.

[0051] The normal entry reception unit 101a receives, from the entry terminal 301a, a request to unlock the door 301c corresponding to the entry terminal 301a and the user's personal identification information read from an identification image presented by the user (service user or administrator) (S102). Here, the normal entry reception unit 101a receives the user's personal identification information contained in a two-dimensional code as the identification image, and further receives base / section identification information (and / or seat identification information) or door identification information together with the unlocking request and the personal identification information.

[0052] The matching determination unit 101b performs a matching determination between the personal identification information received by the normal entry reception unit 101a and the personal identification information registered in the database 103. In the matching determination by the matching determination unit 101b, first, it is determined whether or not the personal identification information received by the normal entry reception unit 101a is personal identification information that can be positively determined.

[0053] The conditions for the personal identification information to be positively determinable can be set in advance in a format corresponding to the information registered in the database 103. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of personal information data 10 including personal identification information (user ID) stored in the database 103. In the personal information data 10 shown in FIG. 5, it is possible to determine whether the personal identification information is positively determinable based on the user validity period consisting of the validity period start date and validity period end date. The matching determination unit 101b determines that the personal identification information is positively determinable if the determination date is within the user validity period.

[0054] If the personal identification information accepted by the normal entry acceptance unit 101a does not satisfy the conditions for being personal identification information that can be judged positively (S103-No), the matching judgment unit 101b makes a negative judgment as the result of the matching judgment (S111), and the judgment result transmission unit 101e transmits a notice to the entering terminal 301a that entry is not permitted (an entry denial notice) (S112). Here, the entering terminal 301a is the entering terminal corresponding to the door 301c accepted by the normal entry acceptance unit 101a, and the judgment result transmission unit 101e identifies the entering terminal 301a based on the identification information of the door.

[0055] When the entry terminal 301a receives the entry denial notice, it displays a message on the display of the entry terminal 301a indicating that entry is not permitted, thereby informing the user (service user or administrator) that entry is not permitted. Fig. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the entry terminal 301a displaying a message indicating that entry is not permitted. Upon receiving the entry denial notice, the entry terminal 301a notifies the user (service user or administrator) via the display, as shown in Fig. 6, that entry is not permitted using the read two-dimensional code, i.e., that the user (service user or administrator) does not meet the conditions for entry.

[0056] If the personal identification information received by the normal entry reception unit 101a satisfies the conditions for being personal identification information that can be positively determined (S103-Yes), the matching determination unit 101b determines whether the current time is a time when entry is permitted relative to the reserved time.

[0057] If the personal identification information received by the normal entry reception unit 101a is not linked in the database 103 to the reservation time corresponding to the door 301c for which an unlocking request has been made by the normal entry reception unit 101a, or if the current time is not within the available entry time for the reservation time corresponding to the door 301c for which an unlocking request has been made among the reservation times linked to the personal identification information (S104-No), the matching determination unit 101b makes a negative determination as a result of the matching determination (S113), and the determination result transmission unit 101e transmits a notification (outside of hours notification) to the entry terminal 301a that the reservation time is outside of the reservation time (S114). Here, the entry terminal 301a is the entry terminal corresponding to the door 301c received by the normal entry reception unit 101a, and the determination result transmission unit 101e identifies the entry terminal 301a based on the door identification information.

[0058] The criteria for determining whether the current time is within the available entry time can be set in advance. For example, the start time of the available entry time can be set earlier than the reservation start time. Specifically, the start time of the available entry time can be set, for example, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours before the reservation start time. The start time of the available entry time can also be set in advance to the opening time of the day's business hours. The end time of the available entry time can also be the end time of the reservation time, or the time a preset grace period has elapsed since the end time of the reservation time. The grace period can be set, for example, to 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours.

[0059] When the entry terminal 301a receives the after-hours notification, it displays a reservation acceptance screen with a selection button for temporary entry on the display of the entry terminal 301a. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the entry terminal 301a displaying the reservation acceptance screen. On the reservation acceptance screen of FIG. 7, the entry button displayed in the upper right corner becomes the selection button for temporary entry. Upon receiving the after-hours notification, the entry terminal 301a displays the reservation acceptance screen to the user (service user) via the display, as shown in FIG. 7, so that the user (service user) knows that it is outside the reserved time. With this configuration, the user (service user) can enter the room by making a new reservation or by making a temporary entry, even outside the reserved time, simply by operating the entry terminal 301a, and there is no need to contact the service administrator to have the room unlocked.

[0060] When the database 103 shows that the personal identification information received by the normal entry reception unit 101a is linked to the reservation time of the base 300 corresponding to the door 301c received by the normal entry reception unit 101a and the current time is a time when entry is possible (S104-Yes), the matching determination unit 101b makes a positive determination as a result of the matching determination (S105), and the determination result transmission unit 101e transmits a notification that unlocking has been completed (unlock completion notification) to the entry terminal 301a (S106). The unlock completion notification includes information about the reservation time and seat number acquired from the database 103. Here, the entry terminal 301a is the entry terminal corresponding to the door 301c received by the normal entry reception unit 101a, and the determination result transmission unit 101e identifies the entry terminal 301a based on the door identification information.

[0061] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of reservation data 20 stored in database 103, which includes personal identification information (user ID) and reservation times (reservation start time and reservation end time).

[0062] In the database 103 shown in Figure 8, for example, if a user (service user) with user ID "A00002" requests to unlock a door at a location with location ID "XY13XXX" even though he or she has only made a reservation for "R00001" at a location with location ID "XY14XXX", it is determined that the corresponding reservation time is not linked, and an after-hours notification is sent to the entry terminal 301a.

[0063] 8, for example, if the start time of the permitted entry period is preset to 5 minutes before the reservation start time, and a user (service user) with user ID "A00001" requests the door to be unlocked at 1:50 PM on July 4, 2024 (10 minutes before the reservation start time) at a location with location ID "XY13XXX," an after-hours notification is sent to the entry terminal 301a because the current time is not within the permitted entry period. On the other hand, if a request to unlock the door is made at 1:58 PM on July 4, 2024 (2 minutes before the reservation start time) or 2:05 PM (5 minutes after the reservation start time), it is determined that the time is permitted entry based on reservation "R00002," and an unlock completion notification is sent to the entry terminal 301a.

[0064] Upon receiving the unlocking completion notification, the entry terminal 301a displays on the display of the entry terminal 301a that the unlocking has been completed. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of the entry terminal 301a displaying the unlocking completion. Upon receiving the unlocking completion notification, the entry terminal 301a notifies the user (service user) that the unlocking has been completed via the display, as shown in FIG. 9, and also displays the reserved seat number and the reservation time. The reserved seat number and reservation time are based on the reservation time and seat number information included in the unlocking completion notification. By being notified that the unlocking has been completed via the entry terminal 301a, the user (service user) can easily understand that the door has been unlocked. Furthermore, by displaying the reserved seat number and reservation time, the user (service user) can reconfirm the reserved seat number and its reservation time, thereby preventing misunderstanding.

[0065] The electric lock management device 302 is in constant communication with the information central processing device 100, and maintains an inquiry status regarding whether or not there is a request to unlock the door 301c under the jurisdiction of the electric lock management device 302, and the inquiry reception unit 101c receives an inquiry regarding whether or not there is a request to unlock the door 301c from the electric lock management device 302. This configuration makes it possible to restrict communication from outside and ensure security.

[0066] If the result of the matching determination by the matching determination unit 101b is a positive determination (S105) and the inquiry reception unit 101c receives an inquiry about the presence or absence of a request to unlock the door 301c from the electric lock management device 302 that manages the door 301c (S107), the unlock instruction unit 101d acquires, from the database 103, device identification information of the conversion device 303 that manages the door 301c (S108), and outputs the acquired device identification information of the conversion device 303 and an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c to the electric lock management device 302 (S109). Here, the inquiry reception unit 101c accepts the inquiry about the presence or absence of a request to unlock the door 301c as well as the identification information of the electric lock management device that sent the inquiry, and the unlock instruction unit 101d outputs an instruction to unlock the door 301c to the electric lock management device 302 that corresponds to the identification information of the electric lock management device accepted by the inquiry reception unit 101c.

[0067] The inquiry about whether or not there is a request to unlock the door 301c may be made for each electric lock management device 302 that manages one or more doors 301c, or for each door 301c. In the case of each door 301c, the inquiry reception unit 101c receives the door identification information together with the inquiry about whether or not there is a request to unlock and the identification information of the electric lock management device.

[0068] Fig. 10 is a diagram showing an example of electric lock information data 30 that summarizes the correspondence between electric lock management devices and electric locks on doors stored in database 103. In the electric lock correspondence information data 30 shown in Fig. 10, combinations of identification information (device key) of the electric lock management device, base / section identification information (base ID), door identification information (key ID), and device identification information (IP) of the corresponding conversion device are registered.

[0069] The unlock instruction unit 101d identifies the door for which the inquiry reception unit 101c has received an unlock request by extracting the door identification information (key ID) corresponding to the identification information (device key) of the electric lock management device received by the inquiry reception unit 101c from the electric lock information data 30 shown in FIG. 10. The unlock instruction unit 101d also identifies the door for which the matching determination unit 101b has performed a matching determination by using the door identification information (key ID) received by the normal entry reception unit 101a. The unlock instruction unit 101d compares the two identified information, and if they match, determines that there is a request to unlock the door for which the inquiry reception unit 101c has received an inquiry. If the inquiry reception unit 101c has received door identification information, it can also compare the door identification information (key ID) with that door identification information.

[0070] The unlocking instruction unit 101d obtains the device identification information (IP) of the conversion device corresponding to the door identification information (key ID) from the electric lock information data 30 as shown in Figure 10 as the device identification information of the conversion device in charge of the door, and outputs the device identification information of the conversion device 303 obtained along with the door unlock instruction to the electric lock management device 302.

[0071] The electric lock management device 302 receives the device identification information of the conversion device 303 and an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c from the unlock instruction unit 101d, and outputs an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c to the conversion device 303 corresponding to the received device identification information. Upon receiving the instruction to unlock the door 301c, the conversion device 303 unlocks the door 301c via the electric lock control panel 304 corresponding to the door 301c.

[0072] After the unlocking instruction unit 101d outputs the instruction to unlock the door 301c, the log storage unit 101n stores an unlocking log, including time information when the instruction to unlock the door 301c was output as information on the unlocking time, in the database 103 (S110). The unlocking log further includes identification information of the unlocked door linked to the time information, an unlocking classification such as unlocking for normal entry, unlocking for temporary entry, unlocking for exit, or remote unlocking, and personal identification information of the user. The unlocking log based on the unlocking request from the entry terminal 301a includes an unlocking classification of unlocking for normal entry or unlocking for temporary entry.

[0073] On the other hand, after the judgment result transmission unit 101e sends an after-hours notification to the entry terminal 301a (S114), the user (service user) checks the after-hours notification on the entry terminal 301a and decides whether to make a new reservation (S115-Yes) in the case of an on-site reservation, forgotten reservation, or mistaken reservation, or to enter the room temporarily for a short time (S115-No·S118-Yes) in the case of entering to retrieve something left behind, or to abandon entry (S115-No·S118-No).

[0074] When making a new reservation after the after-hours notification is sent by the determination result sending unit 101e (S115-Yes), the user (service user) inputs a new reservation time into the entry terminal 301. After the after-hours notification is sent, the entry terminal 301a displays a reservation reception screen as shown in Fig. 7, and the user (service user) can make a new reservation from the reservation reception screen displayed on the entry terminal 301a.

[0075] The reservation reception unit 101f receives a new reservation time from the entry terminal 301 (S116). The reservation reception unit 101f can receive the user's personal identification information along with the new reservation time, and can further receive location / section identification information (and / or seat identification information) along with the new reservation time and the user's personal identification information. The new reservation registration unit 101g associates the reservation time accepted by the reservation reception unit 101f with the personal identification information registered in the database 103, registers the reservation time in the database 103, and can further associate the location / section identification information (and / or seat identification information) with the combination of the personal identification information and the reservation time.

[0076] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the entry terminal 301a displaying a reservation acceptance screen. After tapping "New Reservation," the entry terminal 301a displays the reservation acceptance screen on its display as shown in FIG. 7, and accepts a new reservation from the user (service user) via this reservation acceptance screen. On the reservation acceptance screen shown in FIG. 7, the user (service user) taps a reservation-available time for the desired booth (i.e., base, section, or seat) to select the booth, input the desired new reservation time, and confirm the input details of the new reservation. This causes the reservation acceptance unit 101f to accept the new reservation time. With this configuration, even if a user has not made a reservation or has forgotten to make a reservation, the user can easily make a reservation on the spot from the entry terminal 301a, eliminating the need to open a separate reservation site to make a reservation, making it convenient for the service user.

[0077] The collation determination unit 101b makes a positive determination only if the current time is within the available entry time for the new reservation time accepted by the reservation acceptance unit 101f (S117-Yes·S105). After a positive determination, as described above, the determination result transmission unit 101e transmits an unlocking completion notification to the entry terminal 301a (S106). When the inquiry acceptance unit 101c accepts an inquiry about the presence or absence of an unlocking request (S107), the unlock instruction unit 101d acquires, from the database 103, device identification information of the conversion device 303 that has jurisdiction over the specified specific door 301c (S108), and outputs the acquired device identification information of the conversion device 303 and an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c to the electric lock management device 302 (S109).

[0078] On the other hand, if the current time is not within the permitted entry time for the new reservation time accepted by the reservation acceptance unit 101f (S117-No), the matching judgment unit 101b makes a negative judgment (S113), and the judgment result transmission unit 101e sends an after-hours notification to the entry terminal 301a (S114).

[0079] After receiving the after-hours notification, the entry terminal 301 displays a reservation reception screen with a selection button for temporary entry (i.e., an enter button). To enter temporarily (S115-No / S118-Yes), the user (service user) selects temporary entry from the reservation reception screen of the entry terminal 301, thereby making a request for temporary entry to the entry terminal 301. As shown in FIG. 11, a request for temporary entry is made by tapping the enter button displayed on the reservation reception screen. With this configuration, even if a user leaves something behind at the base, there is no need to contact the service administrator to have it unlocked, and temporary entry is easy, making it convenient for service users.

[0080] The temporary entry reception unit 101h receives a request for temporary entry through the door 301c corresponding to the entry terminal 301a from the entry terminal 301a (S119). The temporary entry time determination unit 101i determines whether the time at which the temporary entry reception unit 101h receives the request for temporary entry is a time at which the door 301c, for which the temporary entry reception unit 101h has made a request to unlock for temporary entry, can be unlocked. The temporary entry time determination unit 101i may determine whether the time is a time at which the door can be unlocked based on the base / section identification information (and / or seat identification information) or door identification information received by the normal entry reception unit 101a.

[0081] The time when the door 301c can be unlocked for temporary entry can be set in advance, and may be, for example, from the opening time of the day until the closing time of the day. Alternatively, a condition may be that the reservation time corresponding to the user's personal identification information is registered in the database on that day. Alternatively, the time may be within a predetermined time from the end of the reservation time corresponding to the user's personal identification information. For example, the time can be set to within 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours from the end of the reservation time.

[0082] The temporary entry time determination unit 101i makes a positive determination only if the time when the temporary entry request is received is within the time when the door can be unlocked (S120-Yes-S121). After a positive determination, as described above, the determination result transmission unit 101e transmits an unlocking completion notification to the entry terminal 301a (S106), and the unlock instruction unit 101d outputs an instruction to unlock the door 301c to the electric lock management device 302 (S107-S109). On the other hand, if the time when the temporary entry request is received is not within the time when the door can be unlocked (S120-No), the temporary entry time determination unit 101i makes a negative determination (S122), and the determination result transmission unit 101e transmits a notification to the entry terminal 301a that the time is outside the time when temporary entry is permitted (temporary entry not permitted notification) (S123).

[0083] As described above, according to the present invention, when entering a room, one simply holds an identification image such as a two-dimensional code over the entry terminal 301a, eliminating the burden of managing keys and the worry of loss or theft, reducing the burden on the user (service user). Also, even if a user has not made a reservation or has forgotten to make one, they can easily make a reservation on the spot from the entry terminal 301a, and even if they have left something behind, they can easily enter the room temporarily without having to contact the service administrator, making this a system that is easy for service users to use.

[0084] Next, information processing when a user (service user or administrator) leaves the base 300 using the exit terminal 301b will be described with reference to FIG.

[0085] When a user (service user or administrator) wishes to leave the designated location 300, the user requests unlocking by presenting an identification image to the exit terminal 301b installed at the entrance / exit 301 of the designated location 300 (S101-1).

[0086] The exit reception unit 101j receives, from the exit terminal 301b, a request to unlock the door 301c corresponding to the exit terminal 301b and the user's personal identification information read from an identification image presented by the user (service user or administrator) (S124). The exit terminal 301b is a terminal corresponding to the entry terminal 301a described above, and is provided on the opposite side of the door 301c or wall from the entry terminal 301a. The exit reception unit 101j receives the unlock request, the user's personal identification information, and the identification information of the door 301c.

[0087] The fee calculation unit 101k extracts from the database 103 the latest unlocking log that has an unlocking classification of unlocking for normal entry or unlocking for temporary entry from among the unlocking logs that have a combination of the user's personal identification information and the identification information of the door 301c, and determines the reason why the user is currently entering the room, whether it is for normal entry or temporary entry, based on the unlocking classification (S125).

[0088] If the fee calculation unit 101k determines, as a result of the reason determination, that the reason the current user (service user) is in the room is normal entry, the fee calculation unit 101k calculates an overage fee by adding a fee corresponding to the number of terms, each separated by a predetermined time, between the end time of the reserved time registered in the database and the time when the unlock request is accepted by the exit acceptance unit 101j to the fee for the period of time that has elapsed since the end time of the reserved time registered in the database, and registers the overage fee in the database 103 (S126). The terms are separated by a predetermined time and are set in advance. The terms may be, for example, terms separated by 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, etc.

[0089] If the fee calculation unit 101k determines, as a result of the reason determination, that the reason the user (service user) is currently in the room is due to temporary entry, and if the time when the temporary entry request was accepted by the temporary entry acceptance unit 101h and the time when the unlock request was accepted by the exit acceptance unit 101j spans a term separated by a predetermined time, the fee calculation unit 101k calculates an overtime fee according to the number of terms that were crossed (S126) and registers the overtime fee in the database 103 (S127). In the case of temporary entry, if the time when the temporary entry request was accepted and the time when the unlock request was accepted do not span any terms, no overtime fee is charged. If no overtime has occurred, the fee calculation unit 101k does not register an overtime fee in the database 103.

[0090] Note that the above process for calculating fees in the case of temporary entry is just one example, and other fee calculation methods may be used, such as determining that there is no fee if the difference between the entry time and the exit time is within a specified time.

[0091] The fee calculation unit 101k registers the excess fee in association with the user's personal identification information.

[0092] The fee calculation unit 101k transmits an unlocking completion notification to the exit terminal 301b (S127). The unlocking completion notification transmitted by the fee calculation unit 101k may include information such as the amount of the excess fee and the excess time. The exit terminal 301b is the exit terminal corresponding to the door 301c accepted by the exit acceptance unit 101j, and the fee calculation unit 101k identifies the exit terminal 301b based on the door identification information.

[0093] When the inquiry reception unit 101c receives an inquiry from the electric lock management device 302 that manages the door 301c regarding whether or not there is a request to unlock the door 301c (S107), the unlock instruction unit 101d acquires the device identification information of the conversion device 303 that is in charge of the door 301c from the database 103 (S108), and outputs the acquired device identification information of the conversion device 303 and an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c to the electric lock management device 302 (S109).

[0094] After the unlock instruction unit 101d outputs the instruction to unlock the door 301c, the log storage unit 101n stores an unlock log in the database 103, which includes time information when the instruction to unlock the door 301c was output as information on the unlocking time (S110). The unlock log based on the unlock request from the exit terminal 301b includes the unlock classification for unlocking for exiting the room. The unlock log based on the unlock request from the exit terminal 301b may be stored in association with the latest unlock log having the unlock classification for unlocking for normal entry or unlocking for temporary entry, which the fee calculation unit 101k extracted for reason determination.

[0095] As described above, according to the present invention, when leaving a room, a user can simply hold an identification image such as a two-dimensional code over the exit terminal 301b, eliminating the burden of managing keys and the worry of loss or theft, reducing the burden on the user. Furthermore, since the excess fee can be calculated on the spot when the user leaves the room, it is easy for the service user to check and for the service administrator to manage. Furthermore, compared to calculating excess fees all at once, the fees can be grasped in real time, and the burden on the system is also reduced.

[0096] Next, the information processing when the user (service manager) remotely unlocks the door 301c of the base 300 using the user terminal 400 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0097] When remotely unlocking the door 301c, the user (service administrator) uses the user terminal 400 to specify a specific door 301c from among doors that have been preset as remotely operable, and requests remote unlocking of the door 301c (S101-2). Here, the user terminal 400 is a user terminal capable of remotely operating the door. A user terminal capable of remotely operating the door is a user terminal operated by a user authorized to remotely operate the door, or a user terminal authorized to remotely operate the door. A user terminal authorized to remotely operate the door is a terminal configured in advance for use by a user (service administrator) authorized to remotely operate the door. A user operating a user terminal is a user (service administrator) who performs a predetermined login operation from the user terminal and then operates the user terminal while maintaining the logged-in state. An authorized user (service administrator) or an authorized user terminal is configured in advance based on the user's personal identification information or the user's terminal's terminal identification information, and this information is registered in the database 103. A request for remote unlocking can be input only from a user terminal 400 that is capable of remotely controlling the door, and a user terminal 400 used by a user who does not have the authority to remotely control the door does not display the reception screen for a remote unlocking request, and therefore a request for remote unlocking cannot be input.

[0098] The remote unlocking reception unit 101m receives a request to remotely unlock the specific door 301c from the user terminal 400 that has the authority to remotely operate the door 301c (S129). Along with the request to remotely unlock the specific door 301c, the remote unlocking reception unit 101m receives the personal identification information of the user operating the user terminal 400 or the terminal identification information of the user terminal 400, and the identification information of the specified specific door 301c.

[0099] The remote unlocking reception unit 101m and the determination result transmission unit 101e transmit a notification that unlocking has been completed (unlocking completion notification) to the user terminal 400 (S130). The determination result transmission unit 101e identifies the user terminal 400 based on the terminal identification information of the user terminal 400.

[0100] When the remote unlocking reception unit 101m receives a request for remote unlocking (S129-S130), and when the inquiry reception unit 101c receives an inquiry from the electric lock management device 302 that manages the specified specific door 301c about whether there is a request to unlock the door 301c (S107), the unlocking instruction unit 101d obtains, from the database 103, the device identification information of the conversion device 303 that is in charge of the specified specific door 301c (S108), and outputs the obtained device identification information of the conversion device 303 and an instruction to the conversion device 303 to unlock the door 301c to the electric lock management device 302 (S109).

[0101] As described above, according to the present invention, the door 301c can be unlocked not only from the entry terminal 301a and the exit terminal 301b but also from the user terminal 400, which is convenient for the user.

[0102] Next, information processing when a user (service manager) uses the user terminal 400 to lock or unlock one or more doors 301c by a batch operation will be described.

[0103] When the user (service manager) collectively unlocks the doors (S201-0), the user selects one or more doors 301c from the doors that can be collectively operated, and then requests unlocking of the selected one or more doors 301c via the user terminal 400. The collective operation reception unit 101o receives the request to collectively operate one or more doors 301c (S202a), and the collective operation transmission unit 101p generates an email including an instruction to the power supply control device 305 to unlock the doors 301c by cutting off the power supply of the doors 301c in accordance with the request received by the collective operation reception unit 101o, and transmits the email (S203a).

[0104] On the other hand, when the user (service manager) collectively locks the doors after collectively unlocking them (S201-1), the user (service manager) selects one or more doors 301c from among the doors that can be collectively operated, particularly from among the doors that have been powered off and unlocked due to the collectively unlocking, and requests the user terminal 400 to lock the selected one or more doors 301c. The collective operation receiving unit 101o receives the request to collectively operate one or more doors 301c (S202b), and the collective operation transmitting unit 101p generates an email including an instruction to the power control device 305 to lock the doors 301c by canceling the power supply cut-off of the doors 301c in accordance with the request received by the collective operation receiving unit 101o, and sends the email (S203b).

[0105] The power supply control device 305 is a device that controls the power supply of one or more doors 301c, and can receive e-mail. The power supply control device 305 may be configured to query a mail server (not shown) at predetermined time intervals to check whether or not an e-mail has been sent to the power supply control device 305, and if the query shows that an e-mail has been sent to the power supply control device 305, it may receive the e-mail.

[0106] The power supply control device 305 can receive an email containing an instruction to unlock the selected door 301c, and upon receiving the email containing the instruction to unlock, cuts off the power supply electrically connected to the door 301c under its jurisdiction, unlocking the door 301c. More specifically, the power supply control device 305 is electrically connected to an electric lock control panel that controls the electric lock of the door, and upon receiving the email containing the instruction to unlock, cuts off the power supply to the electric lock control panel 304 of the door 301c under its jurisdiction, thereby cutting off the power supply to the electric lock control panel 304 and unlocking the door 301c.

[0107] The power supply control device 305 can also receive an e-mail containing an instruction to lock a door 301c selected from the doors 301c that have been unlocked due to a power outage. When the power supply control device 305 receives an e-mail containing an instruction to lock, it cancels the power outage to the electric lock control panel 304 of the door 301c under its jurisdiction, thereby restoring power to the electric lock control panel 304 and locking the door 301c.

[0108] The door selection method may be to directly select one or more doors to be unlocked or locked, and then cut off or release the power supply to those doors, or to indirectly select one or more power supply control devices 305 to unlock or lock, and then cut off or release the power supply to all doors under the jurisdiction of those power supply control devices 305.

[0109] In the case of directly selecting one or more doors to be unlocked (S201-0), the batch operation reception unit 101o receives the selection of one or more doors to be unlocked (S202a), and the batch operation transmission unit 101p generates an email containing a command to the power control device 305 that is in charge of the power supply to the door corresponding to the selection received by the batch operation reception unit 101o to unlock the door by cutting off the power supply to the door (hereinafter also referred to as the "unlock command"), and sends the email (S203a).
