Problems solved by technology

At present, the mainstream technologies for configuring smart home appliances before use are SoftAP and SmartLink. No matter which configuration method is used in these two configuration methods, it is impossible to achieve a 100% configuration success rate. In addition, in terms of user experience, the operation steps are cumbersome. , not only requires the joint operation of smart home appliances, routers, and smart home appliances to complete, but also requires a certain knowledge of wireless networks. If after-sales personnel assist in completing the configuration operation, it will undoubtedly increase the cost for smart home appliance manufacturers with millions of shipments
In the long run, for manufacturers, it is not conducive to the large-scale promotion of smart home appliances, and for users, it is not conducive to the introduction and use of the same series of smart home appliances

no. 1 example

[0050] In the first embodiment of the present invention, a method for connecting smart home appliances to the network, such as figure 1 As shown, the process performed on the side of the smart home appliance to be connected to the network includes the following specific steps:

[0051] Step S101, searching for the parent agent smart home appliance in the power supply network by way of power carrier broadcast;

[0052] Specifically, if the power carrier is used for message transmission, a power carrier modem needs to be installed in the smart home appliance, so that the smart home appliance is connected to the power supply line through the corresponding power carrier modem.

[0053] Further, step S101 includes:

[0054]The parent agent search message is sent through the power carrier modem in the smart home appliance to be connected to the network, and the parent agent search message is broadcast in the power supply network based on the power carrier, so that the rest of the s...

[0064] The second embodiment of the present invention is a method for connecting smart home appliances to the network. The method described in this embodiment is roughly the same as that of the first embodiment. figure 2 As shown, in addition to steps S201-203 corresponding to steps S101-S103 in the first embodiment, the method in this embodiment also includes the following specific steps before step 201:

[0065] Step S200, judge whether the received wireless signal strength of itself is lower than the set threshold, when the received wireless signal strength of the smart home appliance to be connected to the network is lower than the set threshold, execute step S201, otherwise repeat step S200.

no. 3 example

[0066] The third embodiment of the present invention is a method for connecting smart home appliances to the network. The method described in this embodiment is roughly the same as the first embodiment, the difference is that, image 3 As shown, in addition to steps S301-303 corresponding to steps S101-S103 in the first embodiment, the method in this embodiment also includes the following specific steps:

[0067] Step S304, when the parent agent smart home appliance receives the control instruction for the smart home appliance to be connected to the network through the wireless Internet, the smart home appliance to be connected to the network receives the control instruction based on the control instruction sent by the parent agent smart home appliance through the power carrier broadcast. control messages, and execute corresponding functions based on the control messages.

[0068] Specifically, the control message includes: the control instruction and the identity of the smart...

Abstract

The invention provides an intelligent household electrical appliance network access method and device and an intelligent household electrical appliance. A flow executed by an intelligent household electrical appliance side required to get access to a network comprises: searching a father agent intelligent household electrical appliance in a power supply network by means of a power line carrier broadcast mode; acquiring network access configuration information from the father agent intelligent household electrical appliance searched from the power supply network; and getting access to a wireless interconnected network on the basis of the network access configuration information. After the intelligent household electrical appliance is successfully subjected to first-time network access configuration, other intelligent household electrical appliances may automatically acquire network access configuration information via a power line by means of power line carrier technology so as to complete network access configuration after being powered on. Therefore, configuration time is shortened; cost is greatly reduced; and what's more important is that good experience is brought to a user. By the combination of power line carrier communication technology and a household wireless local area network, the device may cover a wireless communication blind area and achieves 100 percent of configuration success rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of interconnection of smart home appliances, in particular to a method and device for connecting smart home appliances to a network, and the smart home appliances. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of smart home appliances, more and more smart home appliances have entered users' homes. To experience and use the Internet of Things functions of smart home appliances, users need to configure the network access of smart home appliances to access wireless LANs. At present, the mainstream technologies for configuring and connecting smart appliances to the network before use are SoftAP and SmartLink. No matter which configuration method is used in these two configuration methods, it is impossible to achieve a 100% configuration success rate. In addition, in terms of user operation experience, the operation steps are cumbersome. , not only requires the joint operation of smart home appliances, ro...
