  • Patent number: 10529158
    Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a transmission unit that transmits authentication information including a start time and an end time of a reservation and a request signal for requesting locking and unlocking of a door to the key unit. The key unit includes a reception unit that receives the authentication information and the request signal, an authentication unit that authenticates the mobile terminal when the authentication information is received, a determination unit that determines whether a current time is within a reservation time, and a locking and unlocking processing unit that prohibits unlocking of the door when it is determined that the current time is not within the reservation time on the premise that the door is unlocked/locked when the authentication succeeds and the request signal is received.
