[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. However, when the number, quantity, amount, range, etc. of each element is mentioned in the embodiments described below, the idea of ​​the present disclosure is not limited to the mentioned numbers unless otherwise specified or clearly specified in principle. Furthermore, the structures, etc. described in the embodiments described below are not necessarily essential to the idea of ​​the present disclosure unless otherwise specified or clearly specified in principle.

[0010] Embodiment 1. Configuration of the health management system according to the embodiment 1 is a configuration diagram of a health management system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Health management system 100 is a system for managing body temperature as part of health management for members belonging to a specific organization. In the following explanation, the configuration and operation of health management system 100 will be described using an example in which body temperature management is performed for an employee 20A who belongs to a company and is a member belonging to the specific organization.

[0011] The health management system 100 comprises an ID card 20, a management server 30, and a card reader 40. The card reader 40 is connected to the management server 30 via a communication network 10. The communication network 10 may be wireless or wired. The configurations of the ID card 20, management server 30, and card reader 40 that make up the health management system 100 will be described in more detail below with reference to FIG. 1.

[0012] 2. ID Card 20 Configuration ID card 20 is an employee identification card carried by employee 20A. Figure 2 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of an ID card. ID card 20 is a contactless personal identification card embedded with an integrated circuit 22 (integrated circuit) that stores unique identification information of employee 20A, and a temperature measuring device 24. ID card 20 may display information such as a facial photograph, employee code, and name on the surface of the card.

[0013] The integrated circuit 22 includes a processor 221 and a card memory 222 coupled to the processor 221. The card memory 222 stores one or more programs 223 executable by the processor 221 and various personal information data 224 associated therewith. The processor 221 executes the programs 223 to realize various processes by the processor 221. The programs 223 include, for example, a temperature measurement program for processing data measured by the temperature measurement device 24 described below.

[0014] The temperature measuring device 24 is a device including a temperature sensor for measuring the body temperature of the owner of the ID card 20. There are no limitations on the configuration of the temperature measuring device 24 as long as it can be mounted on the ID card 20. For example, the temperature measuring device 24 can be configured to measure the temperature by touching the temperature measuring section of the ID card 20 with a finger or by placing it against the forehead.

[0015] The personal information data 224 includes, for example, identification information 225 and temperature measurement information 226. The identification information 225 is unique identification information of the employee 20A who is the card holder. The owner of the ID card 20 can be identified by the identification information 225. The identification information 225 can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as employee movement management, attendance management, and entrance / exit management.

[0016] When employee 20A starts a temperature measurement operation, processor 221 executes the temperature measurement program. By executing the temperature measurement program, temperature measurement information 226 is generated, which associates the temperature measurement result obtained by temperature measurement device 24 with the time of temperature measurement. The generated temperature measurement information 226 is stored in the personal information data in card memory 222.

[0017] 3. Configuration of card reader 40 The card reader 40 is a contactless card reader that detects that an ID card 20 has come close and communicates wirelessly with the detected ID card 20. By communicating with the ID card 20, the card reader 40 can send and receive data to and from the ID card 20. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the card reader 40 is installed on the wall of an entrance 50 for entering a controlled area of ​​a company. In other words, the card reader 40 shown in FIG. 1 is a fixed card reader that is used to unlock the door when an employee enters the controlled area through the entrance 50 and to register the employee's movements.

[0018] When the ID card 20 is brought close to the card reader 40, the card reader 40 reads the personal information data 224 stored in the card memory 222 of the ID card 20. The read personal information data 224 is associated with the time of reading and then sent to the management server 30 via the communication network 10.

[0019] 4. Configuration of Management Server 30 The management server 30 is a device for managing various aspects of company employees based on personal information data 224 transmitted from the card reader 40. Fig. 3 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the management server 30. The management server 30 is installed, for example, within a company, and is connected to the card reader 40 via the communication network 10.

[0020] The management server 30 is a single computer or a collection of multiple computers connected via a communications network. The management server 30 is equipped with one or more processors 32 and one or more server memories 34 coupled to the processors 32. The server memory 34 stores one or more programs 341 executable by the processors 32 and various data 342 associated therewith. The data 342 includes a status list database 343 for registering the schedule and status of each employee. In other words, the status list database 343 is a member database containing member information of members belonging to a specific organization.

[0021] The processor 32 executes the program 341 to realize various processes. Fig. 4 is a functional block diagram showing functions realized by the processor of the management server executing the program. As shown in Fig. 4, the management server includes a communication function unit 321, a determination function unit 322, and an operation command function unit 323. Below, the functions of the processor 32 will be described with reference to Fig. 1 as an example, where employee 20A enters through company entrance 50.

[0022] The communication function unit 321 is a functional block that has the function of transmitting and receiving data via the communication network 10 and registering received data. Typically, the communication function unit 321 receives personal information data 224 of employee 20A from the card reader 40 via the communication network 10. The received personal information data 224 of employee 20A is registered in the employee 20A's movement list in the movement list database 343. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "movement list registration process." The personal information data 224 stored by the movement list registration process is used not only for employee movement management but also for various processes described below.

[0023] The determination function unit 322 is a functional block for determining the health condition of employee 20A based on the temperature measurement information 226 of the personal information data 224 registered in the status list. Typically, the determination function unit 322 determines whether the temperature measurement result included in the most recent identification information 225 included in employee 20A's temperature measurement information 226 is equal to or higher than the determination temperature. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "determination process." The determination result from the determination process is sent to the operation command function unit 323.

[0024] The operation command function unit 323 is a functional block for determining the behavior that the management server 30 should take to manage the health of the target employee 20A, depending on the determination result of the determination process. Typically, if the temperature measurement result of the determination process indicates that the temperature is above the threshold temperature, the operation command function unit 323 transmits one or more operation commands related to health management of employee 20A via the communication network 10. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "operation command process." The target device of the operation command includes, for example, a locking device 52 that locks and unlocks the door to the entrance 50. For example, if the determination process indicates that the temperature measurement result is above the threshold temperature, the operation command function unit 323 transmits an operation command to the locking device 52 to lock the locking device 52. Upon receiving the operation command, the locking device 52 locks the entrance 50. This restricts employee 20A from entering through the entrance 50.

[0025] Alternatively, the target device may include a terminal device 62 used by a manager 60 of employee 20A. Here, manager 60 is a designated registration destination registered in advance, such as employee 20A's superior. Terminal device 62 is, for example, a terminal device such as a PC or smartphone managed by the manager. For example, if the determination process results in a temperature measurement result indicating that the temperature is above the determination temperature, the operation command function unit 323 sends an operation command to terminal device 62 to notify the employee 20A that he or she is feeling unwell. Upon receiving the operation command, terminal device 62 displays the notification on a display device or outputs it as audio from a speaker. This allows manager 60 to understand that employee 20A is feeling unwell.

[0026] 5. Specific processes executed in the health management system according to the embodiment The flow of processing executed by the management server of the health management system according to the embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a flowchart showing a control routine of processing executed by the health management system according to the embodiment. The routine shown in this figure is a routine repeatedly executed by processor 32 of management server 30.

[0027] When the ID card 20 is read by the card reader 40, the card reader 40 transmits the personal information data 224 to the management server 30. In step S100, it is determined whether the management server 30 has received the personal information data 224 transmitted from the card reader 40. If the management server 30 has not received the personal information data 224, the processing of this routine is terminated, and if the management server 30 has received the personal information data 224, the processing proceeds to step S102.

[0028] In step S102, the received personal information data 224 is compared with the employee information registered in the activity report database 343. If there is no employee information corresponding to the personal information data 224, it is determined that the holder of the ID card 20 is not an employee of the company, and this routine is terminated.

[0029] On the other hand, if there is employee information corresponding to the personal information data 224, the process proceeds to the next step S104. In step S104, the personal information data 224 is registered in the corresponding employee status report database 343. When the process of step S104 ends, the process proceeds to step S106.

[0030] In step S106, it is determined whether the time elapsed since the temperature measurement time of the most recent temperature measurement information registered in the status table database 343 exceeds a determination time. The determination time here is a predetermined time elapsed time that can be determined to reflect the temperature measurement results of the temperature measurement information as reflecting the employee's current physical condition. Typically, the determination time can be set to, for example, several minutes to several tens of minutes. If the determination result shows that the elapsed time exceeds the determination time, it is determined that the temperature measurement results are not reliable in representing the employee's current physical condition, and processing proceeds to step S108. As a result, the most recent temperature measurement information is excluded from the determination processing in step S110.

[0031] In step S108, a request to take a second temperature is notified to employee 20A. Typically, the management server 30 sends an operational command to notify the card reader 40. The card reader 40 issues a voice notification or an alarm to request a second temperature measurement.

[0032] If the elapsed time is equal to or less than the judgment time in step S106, it is determined that the temperature measurement result is highly reliable in representing the employee's current physical condition, and processing proceeds to step S110. In step S110, it is determined whether the temperature measurement result is equal to or greater than the judgment temperature. The judgment temperature here is a preset value used as the body temperature for determining poor physical condition. Typically, the judgment temperature can be set to, for example, 37.5°C. If the judgment result shows that the temperature measurement result is equal to or greater than the judgment temperature, processing proceeds to step S112; if the temperature measurement result is lower than the judgment temperature, processing proceeds to step S114.

[0033] In step S112, it is determined that employee 20A is unwell, and an operational command to lock the door to entrance 50 is sent to locking device 52. Also in step S112, an operational command to notify that employee 20A is unwell is sent to terminal device 62. This restricts the employee from entering the room through entrance 50.

[0034] In step S114, it is determined that employee 20A is in good health, and an operation command to unlock the door to entrance 50 is sent to locking device 52. This allows the employee to enter the room through entrance 50.

[0035] According to this health management system 100, the results of temperature measurements taken using the ID card 20 can be automatically registered in the employee status database without the employee having to perform any tedious tasks. This makes it possible to manage the health of employees without imposing an excessive workload on them. Furthermore, since the ID card 20 is equipped with a temperature measurement device 24, the temperature measurement results are highly reliable as they are the data of the ID card 20 holder himself. Furthermore, according to the health management system 100, it is possible to restrict entry into the company of employees who are feeling unwell, which is effective in preventing the spread of infections such as viruses. Furthermore, the designated registration destination is automatically notified of an employee's unwell condition, improving convenience.

[0036] 6. Variations The health management system 100 of the present disclosure can adopt the following modified forms.

[0037] The card reader 40 is not limited to a fixed card reader. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a modified example of the health management system 100. In the example shown in this diagram, the card reader 40 is configured as a portable card reader. Such a card reader 40 can be realized, for example, by a portable terminal having a function for reading the ID card 20 and a function for communicating with the outside. Typically, such a card reader 40 can be realized by a smartphone having a function for reading the ID card 20.

[0038] The example shown in FIG. 6 illustrates a situation in which, for example, employee 20A, who is out, makes a regular report of his / her movements. Employee 20A takes his / her temperature using ID card 20 before presenting and reporting. Employee 20A reads ID card 20 into portable card reader 40 while away from home. If the determination process determines that employee 20A is feeling unwell, an operational command is sent to terminal device 62 in the operational command process to notify that employee 20A is feeling unwell. This configuration makes it possible to manage the health of employees who are out.

[0039] The health management system 100 according to the embodiment can be widely applied not only to health management of company employees but also to health management of members of a specific organization. For example, the health management system 100 may be applied when entering a membership-based facility such as a sports gym.

[0040] Fig. 7 is a diagram showing a modified example of the hardware resources of the management server 30. In the example shown in Fig. 7, the management server 30 includes, for example, a processor 35, a server memory 36, and a processing circuit 38 including dedicated hardware 37. Fig. 7 shows an example in which some of the functions of the management server 30 are realized by the dedicated hardware 37. All of the functions of the management server 30 may also be realized by the dedicated hardware 37. The dedicated hardware 37 may be a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC, an FPGA, or a combination thereof. [Explanation of symbols]
