[0047] The principles of this application are described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Thus, it will be understood that those skilled in the art will be able to design various arrangements which, although not explicitly described or shown herein, embody the principles of this application and are included within the scope of this application. In addition, all examples herein are mainly and explicitly intended for teaching purposes to assist the reader in understanding the principles of this application and the concepts provided by the inventors, thereby deepening the relevant field, and all examples should not be construed as being limited to such specifically described examples and conditions. Additionally, unless otherwise specified (e.g., "or alternatively" or "or in an alternative"), the term "or" as used herein refers to a non-exclusive "or" (i.e., "and / or"). Also, the various embodiments described herein are not necessarily mutually exclusive, as some embodiments can be combined with one or more other embodiments to form new embodiments.

[0048] After an existing household appliance device is connected to a server based on the network configuration information of a gateway device, it needs to confirm and interact with a mobile terminal so that the user can send control information to the household appliance device through the mobile terminal to achieve remote control of the household appliance device by the user through the mobile terminal.

[0049] Currently, the confirmation interaction between the mobile terminal and the household appliance device is generally carried out through a server, and its disadvantage is that both the mobile terminal and the household appliance device need to be connected to the network simultaneously. The user needs to control the device on the household appliance device according to the confirmation requirements. After the household appliance device responds, it reports data through the network via a router to the server for processing to change the confirmation identifier. The mobile terminal determines the successful confirmation of the household appliance device by querying the confirmation identifier. This method has a relatively long interaction link.

[0050] Based on this, this application provides a method for confirming the ownership of a household appliance. In this method, the household appliance device completes network configuration through NFC induction and confirms that the mobile terminal is the ownership terminal of the household appliance device, which can enable the ownership confirmation between the NFC-supported mobile terminal and the household appliance device through a shorter link to improve the confirmation efficiency.

[0051] The method for confirming the ownership of a household appliance in this application will be introduced in detail below. The flow schematic diagram of an embodiment of the method for confirming the ownership of a household appliance is specifically as follows Figure 1As shown in the figure, the method for confirming the ownership of the home appliance in this embodiment includes the following steps. Among them, an NFC (Near Field Communication) module is provided in the home appliance device. It should be noted that the following step numbers are only used for simplified description and are not intended to limit the execution order of the steps. Each step of this embodiment can be arbitrarily changed in the execution order on the basis of not violating the technical idea of this application.

[0052] S101: The home appliance device enters the network configuration mode.

[0053] S102: The home appliance device then completes the network configuration through NFC induction and confirms that the mobile terminal is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device.

[0054] Optionally, when the home appliance device enters the network configuration mode, the home appliance device can sense whether there is any other NFC module in its sensing area; and in the case where the NFC module of the home appliance device senses the mobile terminal in the sensing area, the home appliance device completes the network configuration through NFC induction and confirms that the mobile terminal is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device.

[0055] Among them, there are various specific implementation methods for the home appliance device to complete the network configuration through NFC induction and confirm that the mobile terminal is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device. For example, the following various implementation methods.

[0056] In the first implementation method, the home appliance device can transmit the hotspot information of the home appliance device (such as the hotspot name and other information of the home appliance device) to the mobile terminal through NFC induction; then the mobile terminal can connect to the hotspot of the home appliance device through the hotspot information of the home appliance device; then the mobile terminal sends the network configuration information of the gateway device to the home appliance device through the hotspot of the home appliance device; thus, the home appliance device can connect to the gateway device through the received network configuration information of the gateway device, and then connect to the server to complete the network configuration. Among them, the network configuration information of the gateway device may include information such as the service set identifier (SSID, Service Set Identifier), password (PWD, Password), and / or channel of the gateway device.

[0057] In this implementation method, after the home appliance device completes the network configuration through NFC induction, the right confirmation can be directly completed. Specifically, when the home appliance device completes the network configuration through NFC induction, it proves that the home appliance device and the mobile terminal are within their respective sensing ranges. Therefore, after the network configuration is completed, the home appliance device can directly confirm that the mobile terminal is its own ownership terminal, that is, the mobile terminal can be used as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device.

[0058] In addition, other rights confirmation methods can also be applied in this implementation method. For example, the mobile terminal can obtain the device information of the home appliance device through methods such as the hotspot of the home appliance device, and can also read the NFC information of the home appliance device from the NFC module of the home appliance device through NFC induction. Then, when the mobile terminal determines that the device information of the home appliance device is consistent with the NFC information of the home appliance device, the mobile terminal takes itself as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device. In addition, the mobile terminal can also obtain the device information of the home appliance device through the server. Or the device hotspot information contains the device of the home appliance device. In this case, when the home appliance device obtains the device hotspot information through NFC or scanning, etc., it can obtain the device information of the home appliance device in the device hotspot information.

[0059] In the second implementation method, the home appliance device can read the network configuration information of the gateway device in the mobile terminal through NFC induction. The home appliance device can connect to the gateway device through the received network configuration information of the gateway device, and thus connect to the server to complete network configuration. Among them, the home appliance device can read the NFC card in the mobile terminal through NFC induction to obtain the network connection information of the gateway device in the NFC card. The NFC card in the mobile terminal is generated by the mobile terminal according to the network configuration information of the gateway device. Or the home appliance device can directly establish an NFC communication connection with the mobile terminal through NFC, and then obtain the network configuration information of the gateway device sent by the mobile terminal through the NFC point-to-point communication method.

[0060] In this implementation method, after the home appliance device completes network configuration through NFC induction, it can directly complete rights confirmation. Specifically, the home appliance device completes network configuration through NFC induction, which proves that the home appliance device and the mobile terminal are within their respective induction ranges. Therefore, after the network configuration is completed, the home appliance device can directly confirm that the mobile terminal is its own ownership terminal, that is, the mobile terminal can be used as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device.

[0061] In the third implementation method, if the NFC module of the home appliance device does not sense other NFC modules, the home appliance device can establish a communication connection with the mobile terminal through a method other than NFC (such as NAN communication, Bluetooth communication, or its own hotspot, etc.) to obtain the network configuration information of the gateway device through the mobile terminal; the home appliance device can connect to the gateway device through the received network configuration information of the gateway device, and thus connect to the server to complete network configuration.

[0062] In this implementation, the process of the household appliance and the mobile terminal performing rights confirmation and binding may include: The mobile terminal can obtain the device information of the household appliance through the communication channel for transmitting the network configuration information of the transmission gateway device (such as the hotspot or Bluetooth channel of the household appliance device, the NAN communication channel, etc.); It can also read the NFC information of the household appliance device from the NFC module of the household appliance device through NFC induction; When the mobile terminal determines that the device information of the household appliance device is consistent with the NFC information of the household appliance device, the mobile terminal takes itself as the ownership terminal of the household appliance device.

[0063] In addition, in this implementation, to increase the possibility of the mobile terminal obtaining the NFC information of the household appliance device through NFC induction, after the mobile terminal sends the network configuration information of the gateway device to the household appliance device and obtains the device information of the household appliance device from the household appliance device, it senses the NFC modules within its sensing range, and when no other NFC modules are sensed, it generates a "prompt to approach the NFC module of the household appliance device" on the display interface of the mobile terminal, so that the user responds to the "prompt to approach the NFC module of the household appliance device" and brings the mobile terminal close to the NFC module of the household appliance device until the mobile terminal can sense the NFC module of the household appliance device and obtain the NFC information of the household appliance device.

[0064] Furthermore, to ensure that the mobile terminal can send control instructions to the household appliance device through the server, after the household appliance device or the mobile terminal determines that the mobile terminal is the ownership terminal of the household appliance device, it uploads the identification information of the household appliance device and the user account information of the mobile terminal to the server, so that the server stores the corresponding relationship between the identification information of the household appliance device and the user account. Subsequently, when the server obtains the control instructions sent by the mobile terminal to the household appliance device, if it determines that the mobile terminal has the permission to control the household appliance device based on the corresponding relationship between the identification information of the household appliance device and the user account, it sends the control instructions to the household appliance device, so that the household appliance device can execute the control instructions, thereby realizing the function of the household appliance device being controlled by the mobile terminal.

[0065] In addition, if the rights confirmation cannot be completed using the rights confirmation method in the above implementation, for example, the mobile terminal determines that the device information and NFC information of the household appliance device do not match, or for some reason such as the mobile terminal being unable to sense the NFC module of the household appliance device, the mobile terminal cannot obtain the NFC information of the household appliance device. The mobile terminal can complete the rights confirmation operation with the household appliance device through the server.

[0066] Among them, the steps for the mobile terminal to complete the right confirmation operation with the home appliance device through the server may include: The mobile terminal receives a home appliance interaction prompt and requests confirmation information from the server; after the mobile terminal receives the right confirmation information reported by the home appliance device to the server, it can determine that itself is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device. In the actual operation process, the so-called "home appliance interaction prompt" can be "a message that prompts the user to operate the home appliance device for right confirmation". After the user views the home appliance interaction prompt, the user can operate on the home appliance device, so that the home appliance device reports the right confirmation information to the server (that is, the home appliance device can obtain the confirmation information through user interaction and report it to the server); after the server obtains the right confirmation information reported by the home appliance device, it can send the right confirmation information to the mobile terminal in response to the request of the mobile terminal, and determine that the mobile terminal has the permission to control the home appliance device, so that the mobile terminal can determine that itself is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device to complete the right confirmation.

[0067] Further, the mobile terminal can confirm whether it receives the right confirmation information reported by the home appliance device to the server within a preset time after sending the request for confirmation information; if it receives the right confirmation information reported by the home appliance device to the server within the preset time, it determines that itself is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device and completes the right confirmation; if it does not receive the right confirmation information reported by the home appliance device to the server within the preset time, it determines that the right confirmation fails.

[0068] In addition, the home appliance device can automatically enter the network configuration mode when powered on for the first time. Or it can enter the network configuration mode in response to a network configuration instruction, where the network configuration instruction is generated by the home appliance device when the user performs corresponding operations on the home appliance device.

[0069] In the home appliance ownership confirmation method of this embodiment, the home appliance device completes network configuration through NFC induction and confirms that the mobile terminal is the ownership terminal of the home appliance device, which can reduce the link length in the ownership confirmation process between the NFC-supported mobile terminal and the home appliance device to improve the right confirmation efficiency.

[0070] Next, the second embodiment of the home appliance ownership confirmation method of the present application will be introduced in detail, where the flowchart of the second embodiment of the home appliance ownership confirmation method is specifically as Figure 2 shown, and referring to Figure 3 , the home appliance ownership confirmation method of this embodiment includes the following steps. It should be noted that the following step numbers are only used for simplified description and are not intended to limit the execution order of the steps. The steps of this embodiment can be arbitrarily changed in the execution order on the basis of not violating the technical idea of the present application.

[0071] S201: The home appliance device enters the network configuration mode.

[0072] S202: The mobile terminal attempts to sense the NFC module of the home appliance device.

[0073] The mobile terminal can attempt to sense the NFC module of the home appliance device; if it senses it, it proceeds to step S203; if it does not sense it, it proceeds to step S205.

[0074] Among them, the mobile terminal can execute step S202 in response to the network configuration instruction issued by the user.

[0075] S203: The mobile terminal obtains the hotspot information of the home appliance device.

[0076] In the case where the mobile terminal senses the NFC module of the home appliance device, the mobile terminal can obtain the hotspot information of the home appliance device through NFC sensing.

[0077] S204: The mobile terminal connects to the hotspot of the home appliance device through the hotspot information of the home appliance device to complete network configuration.

[0078] S205: The mobile terminal establishes a communication connection with the home appliance device through a method other than NFC to complete network configuration.

[0079] In the case where the mobile terminal does not sense the NFC module of the home appliance device, the mobile terminal will establish a communication connection with the home appliance device through a method other than NFC to complete network configuration.

[0080] Among them, the mobile terminal can establish a communication connection with the home appliance device through the hotspot of the home appliance device, Bluetooth connection, NAN connection, ZigBee connection, or blockchain, etc. The mobile terminal can send the network configuration information of the gateway device to the home appliance device through the communication channel between itself and the home appliance device, so that the home appliance device can connect to the gateway device through the network configuration information of the gateway device to complete network configuration.

[0081] S206: The mobile terminal attempts to sense the NFC module of the home appliance device again.

[0082] After step S205, the mobile terminal can attempt to sense the NFC module of the home appliance device again; if the mobile terminal has never sensed the NFC module of the home appliance device, it proceeds to step S209; if the mobile terminal senses the NFC module of the home appliance device, it proceeds to step S207.

[0083] S207: The mobile terminal obtains the NFC information of the home appliance device through NFC sensing.

[0084] After S206, the mobile terminal senses the NFC module of the home appliance device, that is, the mobile terminal is located within the sensing area of the home appliance device and interacts with the NFC module of the home appliance device, then the mobile terminal can obtain the NFC information of the home appliance device through NFC sensing.

[0085] S208: The mobile terminal determines whether the NFC information is consistent with the device information of the home appliance device.

[0086] After the mobile terminal obtains the NFC information, it can determine whether the NFC information of the home appliance device is consistent with the device information of the home appliance device. If they are consistent, it enters step S211, that is, the right confirmation is completed. If they are inconsistent, it enters step S209 to complete the right confirmation operation with the home appliance device through the server, so as to avoid the situation that the NFC module in the home appliance device is independent from the home appliance device and the NFC module in the home appliance device makes an error, resulting in an error in the right confirmation information of the confirmed home appliance device, or to avoid the situation that the home appliance device communicating with the mobile terminal during network configuration is inconsistent with the home appliance device communicating with the mobile terminal during right confirmation, resulting in an error in the information of the home appliance device during the right confirmation operation, thereby avoiding the situation that the mobile terminal cannot control the home appliance device after the right confirmation.

[0087] Among them, there are various ways to obtain the device information of the home appliance device. For example, the mobile terminal can obtain the device information of the home appliance device through the server. Another example is that the mobile terminal can obtain the device information of the home appliance device through the hotspot of the home appliance device. Another example is that the mobile terminal can directly obtain the device hotspot information.

[0088] S209: The mobile terminal receives the home appliance interaction prompt and requests the right confirmation information from the server.

[0089] If the NFC information of the home appliance device is inconsistent with the device information of the home appliance device, or after the mobile terminal receives the NFC induction request and is not within the induction area of the home appliance device, the mobile terminal can receive the home appliance interaction prompt and request the right confirmation information from the server.

[0090] S210: The mobile terminal obtains the right confirmation information reported by the home appliance device to the server within a preset time.

[0091] S211: The mobile terminal serves as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device and completes the right confirmation.

[0092] In this embodiment, the ownership confirmation scheme preferably selects to judge whether the network configuration of the home appliance device is triggered by the NFC tag. If so, the app in the mobile terminal judges that the home appliance device and the mobile terminal are within the near field range, and it can be determined that the home appliance device belongs to the user who configured the network. When the network configuration of the home appliance device is not triggered by the NFC tag, after the home appliance device completes the network configuration by other means, the right confirmation is required. The right confirmation method preferably senses the NFC information of the home appliance device through the mobile terminal and obtains the device information of the home appliance device through the server. If the NFC information is consistent with the device information, it can be determined that the home appliance device belongs to the user who configured the network. In the case where the right confirmation cannot be performed through the NFC, by operating the device by the user, the home appliance device responds and reports the right confirmation information to the server, and the app of the mobile terminal determines that the home appliance device belongs to the user who configured the network through the server.

[0093] For a mobile terminal, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 which is a schematic diagram of the working process of the mobile terminal in the method for confirming the ownership of home appliances in this application.

[0094] S301: After the home appliance device enters the network configuration mode, when the mobile terminal is within the sensing area of the home appliance device, it interacts with the NFC module.

[0095] S302: The mobile terminal completes the network configuration of the home appliance device through NFC induction and confirms itself as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device.

[0096] In this step, after the home appliance device enters the network configuration mode, if the mobile terminal is not within the sensing area of the home appliance device; the mobile terminal receives the communication information of the home appliance device, establishes a communication connection with the home appliance device to complete the network configuration of the home appliance device; the mobile terminal obtains the device information of the home appliance device and receives the NFC induction prompt; when the mobile terminal is within the sensing area of the home appliance device, it interacts with the NFC module to obtain NFC information; after the mobile terminal determines that the device information and the NFC information match, it confirms itself as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device.

[0097] Further, after the mobile terminal receives the NFC induction request, if it is not within the sensing area of the home appliance device; or, if the mobile terminal determines that the device information and the NFC information do not match; the mobile terminal confirms itself as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device after receiving the confirmation information reported by the home appliance device to the server.

[0098] In this embodiment, the above steps are similar to the relevant steps in the Figure 2 illustrated embodiment, and will not be elaborated here. After the home appliance device enters the network configuration mode, when the mobile terminal is within the sensing area of the home appliance device, it interacts with the NFC module; the mobile terminal completes the network configuration of the home appliance device through NFC induction and confirms itself as the ownership terminal of the home appliance device; this can reduce the link length in the process of confirming the ownership between the mobile terminal supporting NFC and the home appliance device, so as to improve the confirmation efficiency.
