Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of remote elevator calling, and particularly relates to a household intelligent lock device with an elevator calling function. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, due to the influence of the epidemic, people pay more and more attention to public health safety, and try to avoid direct contact with the public place outside elevator button. In addition, with the improvement of people's living standards, the requirement for life convenience is getting higher and higher. In terms of taking the elevator, it is hoped that the waiting time for the elevator can be reduced as much as possible, the travel efficiency can be improved, and the experience of taking the elevator can be increased. In order to solve the above problems, the current solutions include mobile phone calling, face recognition calling and indoor intercom calling, etc. However, each of them has its own problems in the use scene. For example, the mobile phone calling needs the user to take the mobile phone and open the specified APP software before the related calling operation can be performed, which is not convenient due to the multiple operation steps. The face recognition calling needs to increase the necessary face detection device, which has high investment cost and may involve information security problems. As for the indoor intercom calling, it has similarities with the present application, but the position of the indoor intercom installed after a period of time is not very friendly, and in many cases it is not installed on the travel path, which brings a lot of inconvenience to the user's travel and calling of the elevator.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN101817467A discloses an elevator calling method and device. The method includes: A. calling the elevator in the room of the resident: the resident clicks the indoor machine, triggers the calling elevator program through the button, and sends the calling elevator command containing the phone number information to the server. The elevator control module receives the command and opens the elevator for the visitor to use. B. visitor calling the elevator: the visitor uses the unit door machine to call the indoor intelligent terminal machine through the network, and records the room number information of the called resident in the door machine. The indoor intelligent terminal machine answers the call and presses the "unlock" button, then sends the "unlock" command to the server through the network. The elevator control module receives the command and opens the elevator for the visitor to use. The device includes an indoor machine, a unit door machine, a switch, a server, an elevator and a local area network. The indoor machine is connected to the server through the switch and the local area network, and is connected to the elevator through the unit door machine. The visitor uses the unit door machine to call the indoor intelligent terminal machine through the network, and records the room number information of the called resident in the door machine. The indoor intelligent terminal machine answers the call and presses the "unlock" button, then sends the "unlock" command to the server through the network. The server receives the command and forwards it to the corresponding unit door machine. The unit door machine receives the "unlock" command, notifies the single-chip microcomputer to execute the unlock command, and sends the elevator control data stream containing the room number data to the elevator control chip and notifies the indoor intelligent terminal machine to use the elevator. The elevator control module receives the command and opens the elevator for the visitor to use. The scheme belongs to the intercom calling of the elevator, which is complicated and not convenient.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention provides a smart lock terminal solution that is convenient to use, safe, reliable, and enables remote elevator summoning. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a home smart lock device with elevator calling function that is convenient to use and safe and reliable.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A home smart lock device with elevator calling function includes a smart lock terminal.

[0008] The smart lock terminal includes a processor module, a communication module, a sensor module, and a control panel, wherein the processor module is connected to the communication module, the sensor module, and the control panel respectively.

[0009] The processor module is used to perform logical processing and calculations on the information of the smart lock terminal;

[0010] The sensor module is used to acquire and record user information;

[0011] The control panel is used to issue a pre-call command to the elevator;

[0012] The communication module is used for network communication with the smart lock terminal.

[0013] Further, it also includes a storage unit, a power management module, a voice processing module, an electronic lock body, a display screen, an indicator light module, and an input unit;

[0014] The input unit is located on the control panel, and both the input unit and the control panel are connected to the processor module. The input unit is used for inputting information from the smart lock terminal and can also be used to issue pre-call commands to the elevator.

[0015] The electronic lock body is used for door lock status detection;

[0016] The storage unit is connected to the processor module and is used to store user information data and door lock log information.

[0017] The power management module is connected to the processor module and is used to power the smart lock terminal;

[0018] The voice processing module is connected to the processor module and is used to broadcast smart lock terminal operation information, behavior prompts and abnormal fault prompts.

[0019] The display screen is used to convert text or voice information into intuitive graphic information;

[0020] The indicator light module is used to illuminate when the user issues a pre-call command on the control panel, indicating that the pre-registration for calling the elevator has been successful.

[0021] Further specifying, the input unit is a keyboard or buttons, and the communication module is preferably a WIFI module.

[0022] Furthermore, the electronic lock body is either a fully automatic lock body or a semi-automatic lock body.

[0023] Furthermore, the power management module includes multiple operating modes, including sleep mode, wake-up mode switching, and system power monitoring mode.

[0024] Further specifying, the sensor module is connected to the processor module, and the sensor module includes a fingerprint sensor, NFC and a camera module, wherein the camera module is independently equipped with multiple or a single image sensor.

[0025] Further, it also includes a cloud server, wherein the smart terminal accesses the Internet via a WIFI network and can access the cloud server.

[0026] Further restrictions include the following usage methods and steps:

[0027] S1: Before leaving home, the user can pre-call an elevator by entering the destination floor number on the control panel of the smart lock terminal or by pressing the up / down call button. At this time, the corresponding direction indicator module will be lit, indicating that the elevator pre-registration is successful. The smart lock terminal only performs pre-call registration and starts the pre-call registration timer, without sending an elevator call request.

[0028] When a user enters the destination floor number to pre-call an elevator, the destination floor will be pre-registered at the same time; if the user only pre-calls an elevator using the up or down call button, only the current floor will be pre-registered, and the destination floor will not be pre-registered.

[0029] S2: When a user performs an unlocking operation, the smart lock terminal detects whether the electronic lock body has been unlocked. If it is confirmed that the electronic lock body has been unlocked, a ladder call request will be triggered and the request will be sent to the cloud server.

[0030] When a user registers for pre-calling of the elevator but does not unlock the door, the smart lock terminal will automatically cancel the pre-call registration after the preset time has elapsed, and the indicator light module will turn off. The user can only trigger a new round of pre-call registration when the elevator is called again.

[0031] S3: When a user opens the door and triggers the elevator call process, the smart lock terminal will initiate an elevator call request for the current floor. The elevator call request is forwarded to the cloud server through a wireless router.

[0032] S4: After receiving the request, the cloud server notifies the corresponding elevator controller to register the elevator call for the corresponding floor. After registering the floor information, the elevator controller will synchronize the current operating status of the elevator to the cloud server.

[0033] S5: The cloud server synchronizes the elevator operation status information to the smart lock terminal. After receiving the elevator operation status information, the smart lock terminal broadcasts the current elevator operation status information through the voice processing module to prompt the user to take the elevator.

[0034] Furthermore, in S3, if the user does not press the elevator call button and directly performs the unlocking and door opening / closing operation, the pre-call registration will not be performed, and the elevator call workflow will not be triggered.

[0035] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0036] This solution provides a home smart lock device with elevator calling function, suitable for home use. As a home-use product, the smart lock is used by only a few family members, effectively reducing contact with public items and minimizing the risk of public health incidents. Furthermore, since there is usually a distance between the front door and the elevator lobby, calling the elevator immediately upon exiting the door significantly reduces waiting time and improves travel efficiency. Additionally, this solution includes a voice prompt function, allowing users to stay informed about real-time elevator status and helping them board the elevator promptly, greatly enhancing the user experience.

[0037] In summary, this invention provides a convenient, safe, and reliable smart lock terminal solution that enables remote elevator calling. It effectively solves the problems existing in other elevator calling solutions, such as the numerous and inconvenient operation steps of mobile APP elevator calling, the high investment cost of facial recognition elevator calling and the information security issues involved, and the inconvenient installation location of indoor intercom elevator calling.

[0063] Preferably, it also includes a cloud server, wherein the smart terminal accesses the Internet via a WIFI network and can access the cloud server.

[0064] like Figure Two As shown, preferably, the method of use includes the following steps:

[0065] S1: Before leaving home, the user can pre-call an elevator by entering the destination floor number on the control panel of the smart lock terminal or by pressing the up / down call button. At this time, the corresponding direction indicator module will be lit, indicating that the elevator pre-registration is successful. The smart lock terminal only performs pre-call registration and starts the pre-call registration timer, without sending an elevator call request.

[0066] When a user enters the destination floor number to pre-call an elevator, the destination floor will be pre-registered at the same time; if the user only pre-calls an elevator using the up or down call button, only the current floor will be pre-registered, and the destination floor will not be pre-registered.

[0067] S2: When a user performs an unlocking operation, the smart lock terminal detects whether the electronic lock body has been unlocked. If it is confirmed that the electronic lock body has been unlocked, a ladder call request will be triggered and the request will be sent to the cloud server.

[0068] When a user registers a pre-call for an elevator but does not unlock the door, the smart lock terminal will automatically cancel the pre-call registration after a predetermined time, and the indicator light module will turn off.

After registering the floor information, the elevator controller will synchronize the current operating status of the elevator to the cloud server.

[0071] S5: The cloud server synchronizes the elevator operation status information to the smart lock terminal. After receiving the elevator operation status information, the smart lock terminal broadcasts the current elevator operation status information through the voice processing module to prompt the user to take the elevator.

[0072] Preferably, in step S3, if the user does not press the elevator call button and directly performs the unlocking and door opening / closing operation, the pre-call registration will not be performed and the elevator call workflow will not be triggered.

[0073] like Figure 3 As shown, the elevator call information transmission process in Embodiment 1 of this solution is as follows:

[0074] The user operates the smart lock terminal to send an elevator call request to the wireless router. The wireless router then sends the elevator call request to the cloud server, which in turn sends it to the elevator controller. The elevator controller then controls the elevator to call the elevator to the user's designated floor. At the same time, the elevator controller sends the elevator status information to the cloud server, which then sends it to the smart lock terminal via the wireless router. The user can then view the elevator's current status in real time on the smart lock terminal's display screen.

[0075] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
