Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a smart and compact lock system having an input panel and an indicator panel combined in a single integrated structure.
- Especially in hotels, indication of room status and requests of guests accommodated in such rooms are conventionally performed using door hangers. Door hangers are difficult to control, and intentional or unintentional removal of said door hangers from door knobs result in unwanted situations such as infringement of privacy, or failing to housekeep. For eliminating such problems related to door hangers, lock systems which function in coordination with indicator and input panels are required.
- In the indicator panels of the prior art, production and installation cost problems due to the requirement consisting several parts and to the difficulties with the installation of electrical connections and cables for feeding said parts, should be eliminated.
- By some lock systems on the market, which are associated with access cards, which are usually employed at doors of hotel rooms, offices, residences etc., room number, room status, or access status related with a certain access card are not visually indicated. In addition to the abovementioned shortcomings related to installation difficulties and reduced lifespan, said systems lack to provide some useful and informative interface services such as personalized messages associated with a certain user having the authorization to use said certain access card. There is a need to enhance the user interface abilities of such lock systems.
- Additionally, in current lock systems, information on access cards are neither user nor time-related. This limits the usefulness of such systems, since once-loaded and non-updated information on an access card results in limitations in availability of news and utilization of some services provided by a facility, thus it causes loss of any synergy and efficiency.
- Besides, such lock systems on the market lack comfortable and practical use by requiring a user to personally be in proximity of said system for utilizing said lock systems.
- Primary object of the present invention is to overcome the abovementioned shortcomings of the prior art.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a smart and compact lock system, wherein it is possible to install a lock, an input panel and an indicator panel into a single slot on a door wing, with minimized installation and production costs.
- Further an object of the present invention is to provide a lock system with enhanced user interface abilities.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a lock system offering useful and enhanced, communication with up-to-date information, between a user and a centralized system.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a lock system which is comfortable and practical to use, without requiring a user to personally be in proximity of said system for utilizing it.
- A smart and compact electrical lock system, said system comprising a PCB card having a microprocessor, a memory and a real time clock circuit, a lock having a latch and an electrical or electromagnetic driving means for driving said latch, and a reader for association with a digital access card having a memory, such that, in use, said reader reads data on the memory of said access card and grants access based on validity of said data; and said reader is in electric connection with said driving means for actuating it, wherein said system further comprises an input panel for entering a user input, and an indicator panel in electrical connection with said input panel for indicating said user input; said lock system further comprises an alphanumerical and/or graphical display and said lock, input panel and indicator panel constitute a single integrated structure.
