[0062] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. All other implementation manners obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the scope protected by the present invention.

[0063] Application Overview:

[0064] With the development of the Internet and the improvement of wireless network bandwidth, more and more device manufacturers realize communication through Beidou, satellite relay (X-chain), etc., and upload the basic information of the device unit, such as the project number to which the device belongs, the main board barcode of the device, mac code, model type and model code, etc., and the data during the operation of the device unit, such as abnormal data, to the cloud, and perform fault diagnosis, etc. in the cloud, so as to discover and eliminate faults in time, greatly improving the maintenance efficiency of device faults.

[0065] However, with the continuous increase in the number of devices within the same project group or multiple project groups of the same user, when sending fault information and the basic information of the faulty device to the user, or when the user wants to actively view the device information of himself, generally only a string of alphanumeric combinations can be obtained, and it is very difficult for the user to correspond to the actual device. To find the accurate device, the user needs to consume a lot of time and energy, bringing great trouble to the user.

[0066] Method Embodiment:

[0067] Figure 1 It is a schematic flow diagram of the device data management method provided by the embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 1 described, the embodiment of the present application provides a device data management method, which is applied to the server side and specifically includes:

[0068] S101. Obtain the location information and basic information of multiple target devices.

[0069] Among them, the multiple target devices belong to the same device owner or the same project group.

[0070] Specifically, a project group can include multiple target devices, and the same device owner, that is, the same user, can own multiple target devices. The target devices can be the outdoor and indoor units of an air conditioner, etc. The target devices in the same project group or belonging to the same user are generally installed at different positions within the same area, such as different positions within a factory building, a shopping mall, or a residence.

[0071] The obtained location information can include any one or both of the three-dimensional coordinates of each target device and the three-dimensional relative position between each target device, and can be obtained through a positioning system, a positioning device set in a fixed area, or a positioning device set on each target device.

[0072] The obtained basic information includes the project number, main board barcode, mac code, model type, model code, etc. mentioned in the application overview, which is used to determine the target device and can be obtained from a preset database or the target device.

[0073] S102. Use the basic information of each target device as a data node.

[0074] Specifically, for example, if the number of target devices in the same project group or the same user is n, then there are n data nodes at this time. Each data node is composed of the basic information of a target device and corresponds to a target device.

[0075] S103. Connect each data node based on the location information to generate a graphical structure.

[0076] Specifically, after generating the above multiple data nodes, determine the connection lines of each node through the location information between each data node, and correspondingly connect each data node to form a graphical structure.

[0077] For example, as Figure 2Shown are the outdoor air conditioner (represented by capital letters) and the indoor air conditioner (represented by lowercase letters). Based on the distance, angle, and orientation between node A (composed of the basic information of target device A, corresponding to target device A) and node B (composed of the basic information of target device A, corresponding to target device A), node A and node B are connected by connecting lines with corresponding ratios. In this way, after all data nodes are connected, a graphical structure is formed that includes data nodes connected by multiple connecting lines. It should be noted that because the connecting lines contain information about distance, angle, and orientation, the graphical structure can be three-dimensional and can reflect the floor where the target device is located, etc. In this way, based on the graphical structure, the positional relationship between each target device can be clearly understood.

[0078] This application provides a device data management method. The basic information corresponding to each device belonging to the same user or the same engineering group is used as a data node respectively, and based on the location information of the devices, each data node is connected to generate a graphical structure. In this way, the device information within the same unit or the same project is aggregated. When a user searches for a certain device, based on the positional relationship between the above graphical structure and the actual device, the device that the user wants to find and the basic information related to the device can be quickly found.

[0079] It should be noted that because the connection of each data node is determined based on the relative positions between the target devices, when the location information is three-dimensional coordinates, corresponding calculations are required. Moreover, in some other embodiments of this application, when the number of target devices is large enough, such as for a medium-sized or large factory building or a shopping mall, etc., the above location information can also be the distance between each target device. Through the distance information between multiple target devices, the three-dimensional location information between each target device is calculated. In this way, because only the distance between the target devices needs to be detected, the detection cost can be greatly reduced.

[0080] In some embodiments, based on the basic information and location information of each target device, the above graphical structure can be constructed and stored through an image database, thereby greatly accelerating the construction and generation efficiency of the graphical structure.

[0081] In addition, due to the actual distribution of target devices such as air conditioners, the connection of each data node is not necessarily completely regular, resulting in the graphical structure finally presenting an irregular shape, such as generally a mesh structure.

[0082] Figure 3 For the flowchart of constructing a display model in the device data management method provided by the embodiments of this application, as Figure 3 shown, the embodiments of this application can also construct and display a display model of the target device for the user based on the above structured graph. The specific process includes:

[0083] S301. Determine a three-dimensional model of a unit including multiple target devices based on the graphical structure and the device shape information.

[0084] Specifically, the basic information of the target device may include the device shape information of the target device, such as the length, width, height, etc. of the device.

[0085] Since in the above graphical structure, the positional relationship of each data node corresponding to each target device is known, the three-dimensional images of the target devices with actual shape sizes can be used to replace each data node in the graphical structure through a preset modeling algorithm, and a three-dimensional model of the unit including all target devices of the same engineering group or the same machine owner can be generated. Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, it more vividly and intuitively reflects the distribution of each target device.

[0086] S302. Determine a target house type model based on the three-dimensional model of the unit.

[0087] Among them, the target house type model is used to accommodate the three-dimensional model of the unit.

[0088] Specifically, based on the target house type information, a target house type model can be constructed through a preset algorithm; or a target house type model can be selected from a preset house type model library based on the target house type information.

[0089] Among them, the above target house type information includes one or more of the engineering information of the engineering group where the target device is located, the house type information input by the user, and the site information collected by the target device.

[0090] Specifically, the engineering information of the engineering group where the target device is located includes the number, shape, floor area, etc. of the target device; the house type information input by the user can be the house type information manually input by the user when creating or subsequently updating the project; the site information collected by the target device includes the floor area and layout environment of the room obtained by sonar and other detections of the area where the indoor target device (such as an air conditioner indoor unit) is located.

[0091] In some embodiments, based on the above-mentioned target house type data, a target house type model can be directly constructed through algorithms such as AI learning to obtain a more suitable model. In other embodiments, a house type model library can be constructed according to historical data, and after obtaining the above data, feature matching can be performed to select the most suitable house type model as the target house type model, reducing the operation pressure and improving the efficiency.

[0092] S303. Construct a display model according to the three-dimensional model of the unit and the target house type model.

[0093] Specifically, fuse the three-dimensional model of the unit and the target house type to construct and generate a display model for presenting to the user.

[0094] Among them, the display model can be a three-dimensional model or a two-dimensional model formed after planarization, and is displayed through a VR simulator or the UI interface of a website, etc., as Figure 5 shown. In this way, a friendly visual private project management solution is provided to users, enabling users to perform unified visual management of their own devices.

[0095] Furthermore, the device data management method provided by this application further includes obtaining real-time data of the target device to monitor the target device.

[0096] For example, in some embodiments, the real-time data includes real-time location data. By obtaining the real-time location data of the target device and comparing it with the graphical structure, it is determined whether the position of the target device is abnormal. The specific process is as Figure 6 shown, including:

[0097] S601. Obtain the real-time location data of the target device at a target frequency.

[0098] Specifically, the target frequency can be determined based on time or the number of control instructions sent by the user to the target device. For example, collect the real-time location data once per hour, or collect the real-time location data of the target device after the user sends ten control instructions to the target device.

[0099] S602. Compare the real-time location data of the target device with the graphical structure.

[0100] Specifically, if the real-time location data obtained by collection is the same as the position relationship of the target device in the graphical structure, it is determined that no position abnormality has occurred; if not, it is determined that a position abnormality has occurred, and it can also be determined which target device's position has changed abnormally. If a position abnormality exists, execute S603.

[0101] S603. Issue a warning.

[0102] Specifically, a warning can be sent to the user to prompt the user to check or restore the position of the target device, and even input instructions to modify the graphical structure. In this way, users can timely discover changes in the device position caused by various accidents or even theft, and timely reset and view the device to avoid damage or theft.

[0103] In addition, by comparing the real-time location data of the device with the graphical structure, the device types can also be distinguished. For example, the device with corresponding data in the graphical structure is the target device of the user, and the device without corresponding data in the graphical device is a temporary device operated and connected by maintenance personnel, etc.

[0104] In some other embodiments, after obtaining the real-time location data of the target device, the position changes caused by the minute vibrations of the target device can also be eliminated through data calculation based on a preset algorithm, so as to avoid warnings caused by the normal minute vibrations of the target device and disturbing the user.

[0105] In some embodiments, the real-time data can also include the real-time status data of the target device, and then the real-time operation data is added to the corresponding data nodes of the target device for the user to view the operation status of each target device, specifically as Figure 7 shown. When there are abnormalities in the real-time status data, fault diagnosis of the device is performed on the cloud server side, and maintenance data or upgrade data is sent to the target device to improve the maintenance efficiency.

[0106] In some embodiments, during the process of obtaining the real-time status data of the target device (such as the real-time status data of a certain target device), the connection status of the target device can also be determined based on whether the acquisition is successful. If the real-time status data is successfully obtained, it is determined that the target device is in a connected state; if the acquisition fails, it is determined that the target device is in a lost connection state; or whether there are lost target devices, that is, lost devices, among the target devices is determined through the connection relationships, position relationships, etc. uploaded by each target device itself and other target devices for the user to view, facilitating the user to understand the device disconnection situation.

[0107] Furthermore, in some other embodiments, when certain data nodes in the graphical structure correspond to target devices in a lost connection state or the target device is a lost device, the corresponding data nodes in the graphical structure can be marked as in a lost connection state, as Figure 8 shown. At the same time, the data of the data nodes corresponding to the lost devices can also be stored separately in the form of cold data, separated from the data of other non-lost devices. The data of non-lost devices is stored as hot data to improve the data interaction efficiency; the data of lost devices is saved and archived and stored as cold data, so as to reduce the operating pressure of the storage and computing units while ensuring that the user can view historical information.

[0108] In addition, when there is a device in a lost connection state, it can also be judged based on the graphical structure to determine which device is in a lost connection state. For example, during the maintenance process, when it is impossible to quickly maintain due to the existence of a lost device, and all the target devices in the graphical structure are in a non-lost connection state, that is, there are no lost devices corresponding to the graphical structure, it is proved that the maintenance personnel's temporary device is a lost device, thus providing help for device maintenance.

[0109] The data management method provided in the above embodiments of the present application, by taking the basic information corresponding to each device belonging to the same user or the same engineering group as a data node respectively, and based on the location information of the device, connecting each data node to generate a graphical structure, and generating a display model based on the graphical structure, which facilitates the user to intuitively understand their own devices; and by obtaining the real-time data of the target device and adding it to the graphical structure for the user to manage the device, greatly improving the efficiency of device management.

[0110] The present application also provides a device data management method applied to the target device end mentioned above, specifically as Figure 9 shown:

[0111] S901. Detect the location information of multiple target devices through a preset positioning device.

[0112] S902. Send the location information of the multiple target devices to a preset server for the preset server to execute the device data management method applied to the server end as described above.

[0113] Among them, the multiple target devices belong to the same owner or the same engineering group.

[0114] Specifically, as mentioned in the above embodiments, the location information can be three-dimensional. Specifically, it can be the value of the target device in a certain coordinate system, or the relative position between the target devices such as including distance, angle, and azimuth; the location information can also be only two-dimensional distance information. After being uploaded to the server, the three-dimensional position relationship between the target devices is directly obtained or calculated by the server.

[0115] Taking the two-dimensional distance information as an example, the location information of the multiple target devices mentioned above is the location information of all target devices, and the location information of one target device includes the distances between this target device and other target devices (other target devices in the same owner or the same engineering group).

[0116] For example, in the same owner or the same engineering group, there are three target devices A, B, and C. The location information of target device A is A* including the distance between A and B and the distance between A and C; the location information of target device B is B* including the distance between B and A and the distance between B and C; the location information of target device C is C* including the distance between C and A and the distance between C and B, and the location information of the multiple target devices includes A*, B*, and C*.

[0117] It can be understood that the above example is only to illustrate the content of the location information. In actual applications, for the solution of obtaining the subsequent three-dimensional model based on the distance, it is necessary to calculate the three-dimensional position relationship of the target devices based on the distances of multiple target devices. Therefore, this solution is applicable to scenarios with a large number of target devices.

[0118] In addition, the position information can also be a three-dimensional relative position, that is, it includes distance, angle and orientation information at the same time. For example, the position information of target device A is A***, which includes the three-dimensional relative position of A and B, and the three-dimensional relative position of A and C; the position information of target device B is B***, which includes the three-dimensional relative position of B and A, and the three-dimensional relative position of B and C; the position information of target device C is C***, which includes the three-dimensional relative position of C and A, and the three-dimensional relative position of C and A.

[0119] The location information of multiple target devices is sent to the preset server for the preset server to execute the device data management method applied to the server as mentioned above, establish a graphical structure and display model for user viewing, which is the same as the execution process of the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0120] In some embodiments of the present application, a positioning device may be installed on the target device to collect relative position information between the target devices, for example, by installing a positioning module on each target device. The positioning module sends and receives signals, calculates the distance angle and orientation between the target devices, stores them in the target device itself, and sends them to the server.

[0121] In other embodiments of the present application, the positioning module can also have the function of network communication at the same time, or by setting a separate network communication module on each target device, the positioning module is connected to the network communication module to realize the local area network communication between each target device, and the communication between a main target device or all target devices and the server. For example, a target device is determined as the main target device, communicates with the server, receives instructions and data issued by the server, including upgrade data or maintenance data, and after the upgrade of the main target device is completed, the upgrade data is sent to other target devices; or the maintenance data is sent to the target device that needs maintenance.

[0122] In other embodiments of the present application, the existing location information of a target device (such as the relative location information of the target device and other target devices) and the updated location information based on the location relationship of the newly added target device can be sent to other target devices for storage to achieve decentralization and ensure data security and transmission efficiency; or the location information of all target devices can be sent and saved to a main target device to achieve centralization. In this way, the needs of different users can be met.

[0123] Positioning Device Embodiment:

[0124] Based on the same inventive concept, the present application also provides a positioning device, including multiple positioning modules, each positioning module is installed on a target device to detect the location information of multiple target devices. Figure 10Schematic structural diagram of the positioning module provided by an embodiment of the present application Figure 11 Schematic diagram of the positioning principle of the positioning module provided by an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 10 and Figure 11 shown, including: signal sending sub-module 1, signal receiving sub-module 2, and signal processing sub-module 3

[0125] The signal transmitting sub-module 1 is used to send positioning signals

[0126] The signal receiving sub-module 2 is used to receive the feedback signals sent by other positioning modules, where the feedback signal is a signal generated and sent by other positioning modules based on the received positioning signals

[0127] The signal processing sub-module 3 is used to calculate the position information between the positioning module and other positioning modules based on the feedback signals, including distance, angle, azimuth, etc

[0128] It should be noted that the functions of each sub-module are explained above through a signal transmission process. In actual applications, the functions of each positioning module are the same. Therefore, the above signal transmitting sub-module 1 can also send feedback signals, and the above signal receiving module 2 can also receive the positioning signals sent by other positioning modules. In this way, by installing a positioning module on each target device, the position information between each target device can be detected, including two-dimensional distance, or three-dimensional distance, angle, and azimuth

[0129] On the basis of the above embodiments, in some other embodiments of the present application, the signal transmission process between two target devices can also be repeated cyclically, so as to reduce the error of single measurement and improve the positioning accuracy

[0130] Figure 12 Schematic structural diagram of the positioning module provided by another embodiment of the present application, as Figure 12 shown, the positioning module may further include a radio frequency unit 4, and the signal processing sub-module 3 may include a processor 31, a storage unit 5, a network sub-module 6, an input unit 7, an output unit 8, a backup battery 9, a power interface 10, and a horizontal gyroscope 11, as well as related control circuits

[0131] Among them, the radio frequency unit 4 is used to process signals to obtain and convert the above-mentioned positioning signals and feedback signals; the processor 31 is used to calculate position information based on the positioning information and rotation signals; the storage unit 4 is used to store the calculated position information; the network sub-module 5 is used to implement network communication functions, including communication with other target devices, servers or other control devices; the input unit 6 and the output unit 7 are used to exchange data with the target device, including transmitting the detected position information to the target device; the backup battery 8 is used to provide backup power for the positioning module to store device information in time after the target device connected to the power interface loses power, avoiding data loss; the power interface 9 is used to connect to the power supply module of the target device or other power interfaces to provide main power for the positioning module, enabling the positioning device to transmit device information to each other with other target devices or positioning devices on other target devices; the horizontal gyroscope 10 is used to correct the initial information of the positioning device.

[0132] The positioning device provided by this application can detect the relative position information of multiple target devices by installing multiple positioning modules on each target device to be positioned, thereby helping the server establish a graphical structure and display model based on this position information, enabling users to find the desired device more quickly and accurately. And because the positioning device can have a network communication function, it can directly implement the function of local area network communication of the target device, or cooperate with the data transfer unit (Data Transfer Unit, DTU) on the target device to jointly implement the function of data transfer between the local area network and the server, such as transmitting positioning information, upgrading data, and maintenance data within the local area network, improving the efficiency of device management.
