  Exemplary embodiments of a member management apparatus, a member management method, and a member management program according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, the case where the present invention is applied to a storage / replay system will be described.

  First, the system configuration of the member management apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a system configuration of a member management apparatus according to the present embodiment. This member management device provides a savings / replay service to a primary member and a temporary member registered in a game shop such as a pachinko parlor.

  “Primary member” here means a player who is registered as a principal member in a game store through a membership application form in which personal information and a personal identification number are entered, and “temporary member” means a mobile phone that is a member card processing machine. It means a player who is registered as a temporary member. When a player holds a mobile phone over a member card processing machine disposed in the amusement store, a unique manufacturing code (hereinafter referred to as “IDm”) built into the mobile phone is a member card processing machine. Through the member management terminal controller (hereinafter referred to as “member management T / C”) and registered as a temporary member.

  In the member management apparatus shown in FIG. 1, even if the primary member or the temporary member changes the model of the mobile phone, the staff member can hold the new mobile phone over the holding part of the prize management device and perform minimum operations. By simply doing this, it is possible to use the stored balls that have been deposited by the primary member or temporary members, thereby reducing the work required by the staff.

  As shown in the figure, the member management device disposed in the amusement store includes the pachinko machine 10, the inter-machine 20, the counter 30, the prize management device 40, the prize dispenser 50, the island controller 60, and the member card processing machine. 70 and member management T / C80.

  The pachinko machine 10 is a gaming machine that provides a player with a pachinko game in which a pachinko ball is played on the board and a prize ball is paid out at the time of winning a prize. Is also a so-called CR pachinko machine that is thrown from the inside of the pachinko machine 10.

  The pedestal machine 20 is an apparatus that is attached to each pachinko machine 10 and that gives a pachinko ball lending instruction to the pachinko machine 10 when a valuable medium such as cash or a card is received. A writer 21 is included. The primary member and the temporary member can use the stand machine 20 to replay the stored deposits in advance, and the main member inserts the membership card into the card insertion slot of the stand machine 20 and enters the password. If it inputs, the ball | bowl throwing-in instruction | indication for replay will be performed with respect to the pachinko machine 10, subtracting the number of balls for replay from the storage balance of member management T / C80. Similarly, when the primary member or temporary member holds the mobile phone 90 over the holding part and inputs a personal identification number, the number of replayed balls is subtracted from the stored balance of the member management T / C80, and the replayed ball throwing is performed. An output instruction is given to the pachinko machine 10.

  The counter 30 is a device that counts the number of pachinko balls acquired by the player, and notifies the member card processor 70 of the counting result. When a predetermined issue button is pressed by an amusement store clerk, the member card processor 70 issues a count receipt in which the number of pachinko balls counted by the counter 30 is bar code printed. When the primary member inserts the membership card into the membership card processing machine 70 and performs a saving operation, the count result is notified to the membership management T / C 80, and the counted number of balls is added to the saving account of the primary member. Further, when the primary member or the temporary member holds the mobile phone 90 over the holding part of the membership card processing machine 70 and performs the saving operation, the counted number of balls is added to the savings account of the primary member or the temporary member.

  The prize management device 40 is a terminal device for prize exchange called a point-of-sale information management terminal (POS terminal) arranged in a prize exchange counter in the amusement store, and the pachinko machine of the count receipt discharged from the member card processing machine 70. The number of balls is read, and the read number of pachinko balls is exchanged for a general prize or a special prize. In addition, accepting the insertion of the member's membership card or holding operation of the member or the temporary member, a part or all of the stored ball is exchanged for a general prize or a special prize. In the case of exchange processing for special prizes, the prize dispenser 50 is notified of the number of dispensed special prizes, and the prize dispenser 50 that has received this notification accepts the number of dispenses for each type of special prize. At the time of payment, a corresponding number of special prizes are paid out.

  In addition, when the primary member loses the membership card or the primary member or the temporary member changes the model of the mobile phone 90, the premium management device 40 performs a process of requesting update of the member information of the primary member or the temporary member. Do. Specifically, if the primary member loses the membership card, the old membership card is prohibited from being used as before, a new membership card is issued, and the old membership ID is saved in the savings account of the new membership ID. Transfer balances.

  On the other hand, when the model change of the mobile phone 90 of the primary member or the temporary member is accepted, the mobile phone 90 is held over the holding part of the prize management device 40 with respect to the primary member or the temporary member, and the mobile phone acquired thereby 90 IDm is registered in association with the member ID. In this way, the model change of the mobile phone 90 of the primary member or the temporary member can be handled only by holding the mobile phone 90 without giving a new member ID, unlike when the primary member loses the member card. I am doing so. Considering the situation where there is a high possibility that temporary members will increase more than primary members, it is possible to respond without excessively increasing the labor of the staff involved in the data transfer of the savings balance.

  The island controller 60 is a relay device that is provided for each “island” on which a plurality of pachinko machines 10 are arranged, and is interposed between each inter-vehicle machine 20 and the member management T / C 80. The membership card processor 70 is a terminal device that is used when a player registers a temporary member. Specifically, the player holds the mobile phone 90 over the holding portion of the membership card processor 70 and is free. If an input such as a keyword is accepted, the member management T / C 80 is notified to register this player as a temporary member. The membership card processor 70 issues a temporary member registration receipt when temporary member registration is performed. This is because when the temporary member changes the model of the mobile phone 90, the model change requester uses the proof that the temporary member is the temporary member.

  The member management T / C 80 is a management device that collectively manages the personal information and the number of stored balls of each main member registered in the amusement store and the number of stored balls of each temporary member registered as a temporary member. Specifically, the member management T / C 80 includes, for each member ID, a member type indicating the type of a primary member or a temporary member, the number of stored balls, a telephone number, a date of birth, a free keyword, a name, and an address. Personal information and a plurality of IDm are stored in association with each other.

  The reason why the member management T / C 80 manages the primary member and the temporary member by using the same table is that the transition from the temporary member to the primary member can be performed smoothly, This is because IDm is not handled as a member ID but a temporary member is managed using a member ID of the same type as the main member. In this way, by assigning a member ID to a temporary member as well, even if the mobile phone 90 owned by the temporary member is changed in model, it is possible to eliminate the data transfer process across the savings account.

  The mobile phone 90 is an own mobile phone that can be called by a player and corresponds to a so-called “Osaifu mobile phone”. Specifically, the mobile phone 90 has an IC chip 91 in which a unique manufacturing number IDm is distributed, and is self-powered based on weak radio waves received by an antenna coil in the IC chip 91. To communicate with the reader / writer.

  The player can perform temporary member registration by holding the mobile phone 90 over the holding part of the member card processing machine 70 and performing temporary member registration operation. The mobile phone 90 is placed over the holding part of the member card processing machine 70. If you hold the ball and hold the ball, you can store it in your own ball account. If you hold the mobile phone 90 over the holding part of the intermediary machine 20 and replay it, you can replay the ball in your own ball account. be able to.

  Next, the configuration of the prize management device 40 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of the prize management device 40 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the prize management device 40 includes an input unit 41, a display unit 42, an IF unit 43, a barcode reader 44, a reader / writer 45, a card reader 46, a printer 47, a storage unit 48, and a control unit 49. .

  The input unit 41 is an input device such as a keyboard or a mouse, and is used by a staff member when exchanging a pachinko ball number acquired by a player or performing a member information update request process. For example, an attendant at an amusement store performs a model change operation via the input unit 41 when a model change request for the mobile phone 90 is received from a temporary member.

  The display unit 42 is a display device such as a liquid crystal panel or a display, and the IF unit 43 is an interface for performing data communication with the member management T / C 80 and the prize dispenser 50.

  The bar code reader 44 is a device for reading the bar code printed on the receipt 100. Specifically, the bar code reader 44 reads the bar code of the temporary member registration receipt (see FIG. 3) or the count receipt discharged from the member card processor 70. The read data is output to the control unit 49.

  The reader / writer 45 is a device that performs non-contact data communication with the IC chip 91 built in the mobile phone 90. When the mobile phone 90 is held over a predetermined holding portion, the reader / writer 45 is weakened toward the mobile phone 90. IDm is acquired by non-contact data communication from the IC chip 91 that transmits radio waves, receives the weak radio waves, and is self-powered.

  The card reader 46 is a reading device that reads information magnetically recorded on the membership card. When a membership card is inserted into the card reader 46, the membership card ID is read from the membership card and output to the control unit 49. To do. Here, the membership card is a magnetic card, but the membership card may be an IC card and the card reader 46 may be an IC card reader. The printer 47 is a printing device that prints various types of information on a paper medium, and the storage unit 48 is a storage device such as a hard disk device or a nonvolatile memory.

  The control unit 49 is a control unit that controls the overall prize management device 40, and includes a gift exchange processing unit 49a, a member information update request processing unit 49b, and a storage ball information update request processing unit 49c. Actually, programs corresponding to these processing units are stored in a ROM or non-volatile memory (not shown), and these programs are loaded into the CPU for execution, and a prize exchange processing unit 49a, a member information update request processing unit 49b and the stored ball information update request processing unit 49c are caused to execute corresponding processes.

  The prize exchange processing unit 49a exchanges the number of pachinko balls read from the count receipt by the barcode reader 44 into a general prize or a special prize, or the number of reserved balls of the main member or temporary member managed by the member management T / C 80. Is a processing unit that performs a replacement process to a part or all of the general prize or the special prize.

  The member information update request processing unit 49b is a processing unit that requests the member management T / C 80 to update the member information of the primary member and the temporary member. Specifically, when a staff member of an amusement store accepts a change notification of personal information such as a telephone number, date of birth, or free keyword from a primary member or a temporary member, and the member performs a change operation of the personal information, member management Request to update member information to T / C80.

  This member information update request processing unit 49b stops use of the lost membership card and issues a new membership card when the attendant at the amusement store accepts the loss notification of the membership card from the primary member. The member management T / C 80 is notified to transfer data of the stored balance of the membership ID of the old membership card to the storage account of the membership ID of the membership card.

  In addition, when an attendant at the amusement store receives a model change notification of the mobile phone 90 from the main member, the personal information of the model change notification is input to authenticate the main member, and then a new mobile phone 90 is received. The IDm is read by the holding operation, and the member management T / C 80 is notified to update the IDm of the mobile phone 90 associated with the member ID assigned to the main member to a new one.

  On the other hand, when a staff member at the amusement store receives a model change notification and a temporary member registration receipt of the mobile phone 90 from the temporary member, the temporary member registration receipt is read by the barcode reader 44 to authenticate the temporary member. Thereafter, the member management T / C 80 is notified to update the IDm of the mobile phone 90 associated with the member ID assigned to the temporary member to a new one. That is, data migration accompanying IDm update required when IDm is used as a member ID is not performed.

  The stored ball information update request processing unit 49c is a processing unit that requests the member management T / C 80 to update the stored balance of the primary member and the temporary member. When the primary member stores the total number of balls in the count receipt, the card reader 46 reads the member ID of the member card, and the bar code reader 44 reads the number of balls in the count receipt, and the read member ID and the number of balls are read. The member management T / C 80 is notified and a storage request is made. Similarly, when the primary member or temporary member stores the total number of counting receipts using the mobile phone 90, the IDm of the mobile phone 90 is read by the reader / writer 45 and the ball of the counting receipt is read by the barcode reader 44. The number is read, the read IDm and the number of balls are notified to the member management T / C 80, and a storage ball request is made.

  Next, an example of a temporary member registration receipt used in this embodiment will be described. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a temporary member registration receipt used in the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, the temporary member registration receipt is printed with a temporary member registration date and time, a member ID, a message regarding precautions accompanying temporary member registration, a message regarding temporary member storage limit, and a barcode.

  The reason for issuing such a temporary member registration receipt is to allow the temporary member to prove that the temporary member is a legitimate person when the mobile phone 90 is lost or the model of the mobile phone 90 is changed. . That is, in the case of a temporary member, unlike the above-mentioned main member, the name and address are not registered, and an unauthorized third party may be impersonated as a temporary member. We decide to certify that we are a temporary member.

  Further, since the member ID is barcode printed on the temporary member registration receipt, when the barcode of the temporary member registration receipt is read by the barcode reader 44 of the prize management device 40, the member ID of the temporary member is specified. be able to. Therefore, when the member ID read by the barcode reader 44 and the IDm read by the reader / writer 45 are transmitted to the member management T / C 80, the member management T / C 80 refers to the member management table 84a shown in FIG. The identity of the temporary member can be confirmed, and the result can be notified to the prize management device 40.

  Next, the configuration of the member management T / C 80 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of the member management T / C 80 shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the member management T / C 80 includes an input unit 81, an output unit 82, an IF unit 83, a storage unit 84, and a control unit 85.

  The input unit 81 is an input device such as a keyboard and a mouse, the output unit 82 is a display device such as a liquid crystal panel and a display, and the IF unit 83 is between the prize management device 40 and the member card processor 70. This is an interface for data communication.

  The storage unit 84 is a storage device such as a hard disk device or a non-volatile memory, and holds the main member and the portable terminal registered in the amusement shop through the membership application form filled with personal information and a personal identification number, etc., over the membership card processor 70. And a member management table 84a for managing temporary members registered as temporary members in the amusement store.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the member management table 84a includes a member type that indicates the type of the primary member or the temporary member, the number of reserved balls of the primary member or the temporary member, and the IDm of the mobile phone 90 of each member. And personal information (phone number, date of birth, free keyword, name and address) are stored in association with each other.

  Here, the reason for storing a plurality of IDm for each member ID is to retain the past IDm when the model of the mobile phone 90 is changed. That is, if an unauthorized third party pretends to be a member and changes the model of the mobile phone 90, it will not be judged as a member when a legitimate member visits the store thereafter, so that the member is authenticated as a legitimate member. It will take time.

  In order to eliminate this situation and make it possible to quickly grasp the fact that this member has been damaged by impersonation by a third party, the old IDm is retained even after the member's IDm has been updated (in parentheses in the figure). IDm). However, the old IDm can be deleted when a certain period of time has elapsed after the IDm update. In addition, when the impersonation of the member by the third party occurs, the corresponding IDm can be blacklisted and notified to the police or the like when the IDm is reused.

  The control unit 85 is a control unit that totally controls the member management T / C 80, and includes a member information update processing unit 85a and a storage ball information update processing unit 85b. Actually, programs corresponding to these processing units are stored in a ROM or a non-volatile memory (not shown), and these programs are loaded into the CPU for execution, and the member information update processing unit 85a and the stored ball information update processing unit Processes corresponding to 85b are executed.

  The member information update processing unit 85a is a processing unit that updates member information of the primary member and the temporary member. Specifically, the member information of the primary member or temporary member notified from the prize management device 40 is received and the corresponding member information is updated.

  The member information update processing unit 85a stops using the lost membership card and issues a new membership card when a member of the amusement store accepts a loss report of the membership card from the primary member. Transfer the balance of the old membership card's membership ID to the savings account of the membership ID of the card.

  In addition, in the prize management device 40, when an attendant at the amusement store accepts a model change notification of the mobile phone 90 from the main member, the personal information of the model change notification is input in the prize management device 40 and is the main member. If it is authenticated, the IDm of the corresponding primary member is updated to a new one using the member ID notified from the prize management device 40 and the new IDm of the mobile phone 90.

  On the other hand, in the prize management device 40, when a staff member of the amusement shop receives a model change notification and temporary member registration receipt of the mobile phone 90 from the temporary member, the member ID and the mobile phone 90 notified from the prize management device 40 are received. The IDm of the corresponding temporary member is updated to a new one using the new IDm. That is, data migration accompanying IDm update required when IDm is used as a member ID is not performed.

  The stored ball information update processing unit 85b is a processing unit that updates the stored ball balance of the primary member and the temporary member. Specifically, when the primary member stores the total number of counting receipts using the membership card, the member ID and the number of balls notified from the prize management device 40 are used to store the corresponding primary member's savings account. Adds the accumulated money. Similarly, when the primary member or the temporary member stores the total number of counting receipts using the mobile phone 90, the corresponding temporary member's storage account using the IDm and the number of balls notified from the prize management device 40. Performs the process of adding money.

  Next, the member information update procedure when changing the model of the mobile phone 90 owned by the temporary member will be described. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a member information update procedure when the model of the mobile phone 90 owned by the temporary member is changed. As shown in the figure, when a clerk of a game shop performs a predetermined member search operation on the prize management device 40, it is displayed on the display unit 42 of the prize management device 40.

  Here, the clerk of the amusement store inputs the member ID of the temporary member from the input unit 41 (step S101) or causes the bar code reader 44 to read the member ID of the temporary member registration receipt (step S102). When the button is pressed, a member information search process is performed (step S103). Specifically, a member ID is notified from the prize management device 40 to the member management T / C 80, and a response of IDm and personal information corresponding to the member ID is received, and the member ID, IDm and personal information are displayed. Displayed on the unit 42.

  When the model change button is pressed down while holding the mobile phone 90 over the holding portion of the prize management device 40, the IDm is read from the IC chip 91 of the mobile phone 90 (step S104), and the read new IDm is the old one. It is displayed on the display unit 42 in a state where it is replaced with IDm (step S105).

  Here, when an attendant at the amusement store presses the update button, the new IDm is notified to the member management T / C 80 together with the member ID, an IDm duplication determination request is made, and the member who has received the notification of the new IDm and the member ID The management T / C 80 makes a duplicate determination with all IDm registered in the member management table 84a (registered self IDm, registered IDm of other members, and old IDm of other members) ( Step S106).
