[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0025] Unless specifically stated otherwise, the relative arrangement of components and steps, the numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

[0026] At the same time, it should be understood that for the convenience of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship.

[0027] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0028] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0029] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0030] The inventor has noticed that in the related art, wearable devices and wall-mounted electrical accessories from different manufacturers cannot communicate with each other. In order to solve this problem, the present disclosure proposes the following technical solution.

[0031] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of a method for controlling household appliances according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 1The method shown can be applied to a wall-mounted electrical accessory. In different embodiments of the present disclosure, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can also be referred to as an electrical accessory. For example, the wall-mounted electrical accessory is a smart electrical accessory. The wall-mounted electrical accessory can include, for example, a control panel, which is also referred to as a smart panel or a smart switch panel.

[0032] In step S110, the wall-mounted electrical accessory exchanges first information with the wearable device. The wearable device includes, for example, one or more of a wristband, a smart watch, and smart glasses. Here, the wearable device and the wall-mounted electrical accessory belong to different manufacturers.

[0033] The first information may include newly added service discovery and device characteristic reading. New service discovery indicates the function of at least one of the home device and the wearable device, also known as device attributes. Device characteristic reading indicates the value involved in the function, also known as characteristic value. Home devices include, for example, one or more of sockets, electric lights, fans, and air conditioners. The functions of home devices include, for example, one or more of the power supply function of the socket, the lighting function of the electric light, the air circulation function of the fan, and the cooling or heating function of the air conditioner. The functions of the wearable device include, for example, one or more of vibration, display, and perception. The values ​​involved in the function include, for example, the value of controlling whether the socket is powered (for example, controlling the socket to power on is 1, and controlling the socket not to power on is 0), the lighting brightness of the electric light, the gear of the fan, and the set temperature of the air conditioner. One or more values ​​or value ranges.

[0034] For example, the first information exchanged between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device may include the wall-mounted electrical accessory sending the first information about the function of the home appliance and the value involved in the function to the wearable device. For another example, the first information exchanged between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device may include the wearable device sending the first information about the function of the wearable device and the value involved in the function to the wall-mounted electrical accessory.

[0035] In step S120, the wall-mounted electrical accessory receives a control instruction from the wearable device. For example, the control instruction may instruct to adjust the fan to a specific gear.

[0036] In step S130, the wall-mounted electrical accessory controls the home appliance based on the first information in response to the control instruction. For example, after receiving the control instruction instructing to adjust the fan to a specific gear, the wall-mounted electrical accessory controls the fan in combination with the information related to the fan function included in the first information so that the gear of the fan is adjusted to the specific gear.

[0037] In the above embodiment, the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device interact with each other through the first information, so that the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device can know the function and the values ​​involved in at least one of the home appliance and the wearable device, which facilitates the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device to achieve cross-manufacturer control and helps to improve the user experience.

[0038] In addition, in the related art, a remote control or a mobile phone may be used to interact with a wall-mounted electrical accessory to control home appliances. This control method has the trouble of frequently searching for the remote control or mobile phone. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a wearable device is used to interact with a wall-mounted electrical accessory to control home appliances. Since the wearable device is usually carried by the user, this avoids the trouble of frequent searching and facilitates the user to control the status of the home appliance at any time.

[0039] Furthermore, in the scheme of using a remote control to interact with a wall-mounted electrical accessory to control home appliances, the remote control is only designed as a sending device for sending control signals and cannot receive return information. Therefore, the user cannot receive actual feedback information from the wall-mounted electrical accessory through the remote control, such as one or more of the device status of the wall-mounted electrical accessory, the status of the home appliance, and the execution of the control command. In the process of interaction between multiple devices in a smart home, the user cannot intuitively receive real-time feedback interaction information, resulting in a lack of interactive experience. In the disclosed embodiment, the wearable device can receive feedback information from the wall-mounted electrical accessory, which is convenient for the user to understand the status of the home appliance at any time, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0040] Finally, in the related art, it is possible to directly interact with the wall-mounted electrical accessories through voice to control the home appliances, but this control method may disturb other users. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the wearable device has the characteristics of personalization and privacy. The wearable device interacts with the wall-mounted electrical accessories to achieve silent and senseless control without affecting other users, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0041] In some embodiments, the communication distance between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device is greater than or equal to 5 meters and less than or equal to 50 meters. The interaction or control method of sensing and communicating within a certain range (e.g., 5 to 50 meters) in the indoor space can be called medium-range interaction or medium-range control.

[0042] In the related art, the method of sending control signals to wall-mounted electrical accessories to control home appliances through applications installed on mobile phones is actually remote control, which requires the mobile phone to send control signals to the matching cloud server and then to the wall-mounted electrical accessories that need to be controlled or awakened. Remote control has problems such as response lag, privacy leakage risk, and the need to frequently transmit data signals through cloud servers, resulting in high data energy consumption. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the control of home appliances is achieved through a mid-range control method, and the interaction between wall-mounted electrical accessories and wearable devices can be achieved without using a cloud server, which is conducive to improving the response speed of home appliances, avoiding the risk of privacy leakage, and reducing data energy consumption.

[0043] As some implementations, the wall-mounted electrical accessory utilizes any of Bluetooth Long-Energy (BLE) and Wi-Fi to interact with the wearable device.

[0044] In some embodiments, the interaction between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device is encrypted, which helps to ensure the privacy and reliable transmission of the user's control of the home device operation.

[0045] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory sends a notification prompt related to the home device to the wearable device. The notification prompt may include, for example, one or more information of the device status of the wall-mounted electrical accessory, the status of the home device, and the execution status of the control instruction. This helps the user to intuitively receive real-time feedback interaction information and improve the user experience.

[0046] As some implementations, after the wall-mounted electrical accessory sends a notification prompt related to the home appliance to the wearable device, the wearable device sends the notification related to the home appliance to a user equipment (UE), where the user equipment includes, for example, a mobile phone.

[0047] As other implementations, the wall-mounted appliance accessory sends notification prompts related to the home appliance to the wearable device, and also sends notification prompts related to the home appliance to the user device (such as a mobile phone).

[0048] In some embodiments, the first information further includes a connection status between the wearable device and the wall-mounted electrical accessory, and the connection status includes at least one of normal and abnormal.

[0049] In some embodiments, when the second information sent by the wearable device indicates that the user performs a specific action, the wall-mounted electrical accessory enters a listening mode from a low power consumption mode to receive a control instruction from the wearable device.

[0050] For example, the specific action can be preset as the user continuously shaking the wearable device, so that when the user continuously shakes the wearable device, the wearable device can send the second information to the wall-mounted electrical accessory, so that the wall-mounted electrical accessory enters the listening mode from the low power consumption mode.

[0051] In the low power consumption mode, the wall-mounted electrical accessory consumes less energy, which is beneficial to energy saving. In the monitoring mode, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can respond to the control instructions of the wearable device in a timely manner. In the above embodiment, the wall-mounted electrical accessory is first in the low power consumption mode, and then switches from the low power consumption mode to the monitoring mode after receiving the second information, which is beneficial to balancing energy saving and response speed.

[0052] In some embodiments, one or more wall-mounted electrical accessories in the room are in listening mode. The wall-mounted electrical accessories in listening mode can receive wireless binding requests from one or more wearable devices through a control panel, and decode the wireless binding requests to receive and identify the device identification code (Identification, ID) of the wearable device currently worn by the user and store it.

[0053] In some embodiments, after the distance between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device of the user is greater than a preset distance, the wall-mounted electrical accessory switches from the listening mode to the low power consumption mode.

[0054] As some implementations, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can monitor the location of the user's wearable device, and then determine whether to continue to monitor the control instructions from the user's wearable device according to the distance between itself and the user's wearable device. For example, the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the user's wearable device can be bound in advance so that the wall-mounted electrical accessory monitors the location of the user's wearable device.

[0055] In some embodiments, when the communication quality with the wearable device does not meet the effective communication threshold range, the communication connection with the wearable device is disconnected, which is beneficial to energy saving. The effective communication threshold range is also called a preset quality range and can be preset.

[0056] As some implementations, the communication quality may be determined based on one or more signals of, for example, matching impedance and baud rate.

[0057] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory responds to control instructions from the wearable device while communicating with the home device.

[0058] In the related art, in order to reduce the development cost of wall-mounted electrical accessories, the application process is executed only through a serial bus. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, by improving the design of the processor's driving engine, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can respond to the user's wearable device signaling at the same time without affecting the connection process between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and various home sub-devices, which can significantly improve the processing efficiency and stability of the wall-mounted electrical accessory and improve the user experience.

[0059] Multithreaded processing may generate greater energy consumption and heat dissipation. In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory has heat dissipation holes to maintain good processing performance when performing high-bandwidth data processing.

[0060] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory only periodically receives an Over-the-Air (OTA) signal when in a single thread or idle state, which helps to ensure that the wall-mounted electrical accessory is in a low power consumption state most of the time. In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory that is down-clocked or in a low power consumption state to reduce energy consumption can be awakened periodically to ensure that the wall-mounted electrical accessory can respond to control instructions in a timely manner.

[0061] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a home system according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0062] Combine the following Figure 2 Describes how wearable devices and wall-mounted electrical accessories can communicate over medium range.

[0063] like Figure 2 As shown, the wearable device includes, for example, one or more of a bracelet 3, a smart watch 4, and smart glasses 5. The bracelet 3 includes an inner wall 31, a sensor 32, and a sensor 33. The smart watch 4 includes a display 41, an adjustment button 42, and a shortcut button 43. The smart glasses 5 include a frame 51, a sensor 52, a speaker 53, a microphone 54, and an adjustment button 55. The wall-mounted electrical accessory has a housing 1 and a display 10. In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory also has one or more of a button 11, an interface 13, and a voice interaction component 12.

[0064] In some embodiments, medium-range communication between a wearable device and a wall-mounted electrical accessory includes establishing a data link layer between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and one or more wearable devices, building a communication link (e.g., a BLE data channel), and binding through the communication link.

[0065] In some embodiments, the wearable device obtains control content supported by the wall-mounted electrical accessory and obtains device status information of the wall-mounted electrical accessory to perform a binding operation. The device status information, for example, includes one or more information of device type, device name, and indoor area (e.g., living room) of one or more of the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the home device.

[0066] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can parse the device type of the wearable device to determine the device attributes of the wearable device to be bound, thereby creating a corresponding object model. Figure 2 As shown, the smart watch 4 has an adjustment button 42 and a shortcut button 43. The wall-mounted electrical appliance accessory can identify the smart watch 4 as a physical model having various numerical adjustment functions corresponding to the adjustment button 42, the shortcut setting function of the shortcut button 43, the function of turning on or off one or more switches, and a voice call function.

[0067] In some embodiments, when there are multiple wearable devices, each of the multiple wearable devices can be connected to a wall-mounted electrical accessory. For example, Figure 2 In the embodiment, multiple of the wristband 3, smart watch 4 and smart glasses 5 can be wirelessly connected to the wall-mounted electrical accessories. In some embodiments, when there are multiple wall-mounted electrical accessories, the multiple wall-mounted electrical accessories can be bound to one wearable device.

[0068] As a wall-mounted device, the wall-mounted electrical accessory sends a handshake request to the smart watch 4 during the binding process based on the smart watch 4's recognition and selection of the device status information. The handshake request may include instructions for controlling the wearable device to perform some electronic actions. For example, the sensor is actuated to vibrate, the speaker broadcasts voice prompts (for example, "Please shake your smart watch"), and the display 41 is used to prompt the user to perform the next operation. In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can also determine whether to continuously monitor the transmission with the wearable device based on the effective communication threshold range of the wearable device. When the effective communication threshold range is determined to be exceeded, the wall-mounted electrical accessory disconnects the data connection with the wearable device.

[0069] In some embodiments, when the user no longer uses a wearable device, or performs a specific operation on a wearable device, the wall-mounted electrical accessory no longer monitors the wearable device. For example, when the user takes off the smart watch 4 and leaves it alone, the wall-mounted electrical accessory no longer monitors the information transmitted by the smart watch 4, and only establishes communication transmission when the user puts on the smart watch 4 again.

[0070] After the handshake is established, various parameters of the wall-mounted electrical accessory can be set through the wearable device (such as the smart watch 4), and one or more of preview and control can be performed on the panel. In some embodiments, after each control of the device parameters is completed, the current data link is disconnected to complete the handshake process.

[0071] Combine the following Figure 2 Describes how to control home devices through interaction between wearable devices and wall-mounted electrical accessories.

[0072] S100: Establish a data channel of a data link layer between the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the wearable device (eg, wristband 3).

[0073] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory creates a low-power Bluetooth access point (Access Point, AP) and a low-power Bluetooth server (Server). When one or more of a smartphone or a computer is used to establish a Wi-Fi connection with the wall-mounted electrical accessory, the wearable device (such as bracelet 3) that was originally paired with the user's smartphone will find the AP network hotspot of the wall-mounted electrical accessory and make a socket communication connection. In this case, the user's smartphone or computer is set as a WiFi forwarding device. When the bracelet 3 directly uses the BLE protocol to connect to the electrical accessory, the bracelet will find the panel's advertisement (Adv) and connect to the Generic Attribute Profile (GATT) service for data communication. In some embodiments, the GATT service is used to define the organization and transmission of data from the wall-mounted electrical accessory to at least one wearable device and to determine multi-hop nodes within the effective communication threshold range. The GATT service created by the wall-mounted electrical accessory includes a set of related attributes, which generally include device characteristics and descriptors of furniture equipment. Device characteristics, for example, include one or more of light switch attributes, socket attributes, and temperature control device attributes. The descriptor includes, for example, a function tag that defines each switch bit, a TCP / UDP node address, and the type of wireless access point connected. Each GATT service has a unique Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) that uniquely identifies the service.

[0074] S200, the wearable device (such as the wristband 3) sends a signaling Bluetooth_GATT_Callback to the wall-mounted electrical accessory to declare receiving one or more of the related connection status between the two, new service discovery, device feature reading, and possible notification prompts. For example, the wristband 3 senses human body feature values ​​through one or more sensors surrounding the inner wall 31 to determine the device features corresponding to these feature values. For example, the sensor 32 can be used to sense limbs. The notification prompt can be notified in one or more of a remote manner and a local manner.

[0075] When the connection state of the GATT service created with the wall-mounted accessory changes, the Connection_State_Change() function signaling can be triggered. In addition, after creating the GATT service, querying for new services and device characteristics can be set to perform asynchronous operations, such as using the Get_GATT_Services_Async() function to generate signaling.

[0076] In the home scene environment, the wall-mounted electrical accessory device also has a built-in memory for storing the service database corresponding to the creation of the private GATT service, the registration of the GATT service node, and the execution of the task list, and adding the service corresponding to the application layer call to the device attribute list. For example, the processor of the wall-mounted electrical accessory device edits the .dbi file to define the device attribute list of the GATT service, and adds it to the automation process project according to specific rules to ensure that the various device attributes contained in the private GATT service can be correctly processed during compilation instead of constantly using cloud services to synchronize data remotely.

[0077] S300, the wearable device (such as the wristband 3) obtains the content supported by the wall-mounted electrical accessory and the operating status of the wall-mounted electrical accessory, thereby determining the operating mode of the wristband 3 or the smart watch 4. For example, the wearable device can obtain the control characteristics of the relay connected in series on the electrical circuit of the bus interface supported by the wall-mounted electrical accessory (for example: 10A, 5V), the number and rating of the electrical circuit, the type of wireless transmission (for example, whether OTA online upgrade is required, whether remote download of multimedia data is required and thus a transmission protocol with a larger bandwidth is replaced), the control of the access object of the wireless external home sub-device of the wall-mounted electrical accessory (for example: air conditioner temperature setting), and one or more information in the log of whether the automation process of each scene is triggered. In some embodiments, the wearable device can convert the displayed content so that the user can set it more conveniently. For example, in some cases, due to the limitations of the wearable device's own storage space, display specifications, battery capacity, etc., the content that can be presented on the display 10 of the housing 1 of the wall-mounted electrical accessory cannot be fully presented on the wearable device (such as the bracelet 3). In this case, the bracelet 3 can generate some quick operation actions based on the displayed content, and the device attribute list corresponding to the action can be stored in the wall-mounted electrical accessory. Smart watches 4 and smart glasses 5 have better hardware resources, and can usually ensure that the display 41 of the smart watch 4 and the display 10 of the wall-mounted electrical accessory display content in equal proportion, ensuring the consistency and coordination of the displayed content.

[0078] The wearable device (such as the wristband 3) obtains the execution status of the wall-mounted electrical accessory and updates the status in real time. Due to scene changes caused by the external environment and other operations on the wall-mounted electrical accessory (such as touch input on the wall-mounted electrical accessory), the status parameters of the home appliance may be changed and updated in real time. Therefore, the wearable device and the wall-mounted electrical accessory can perform real-time status updates through the constructed real-time interactive data channel.

[0079] In some embodiments, the wearable device may not perform logic processing and is only used for a status display that can be viewed at any time when the user wears it, so as to ensure the consistency of the interaction between the electrical accessory and the wearable device.

[0080] In other embodiments, when the distance between the user and the wall-mounted electrical accessory is greater than a preset distance, the display 10 of the wall-mounted electrical accessory is automatically turned off and only displayed on the display 41 of the smart watch 4, and the user can send control instructions through the buttons on the smart watch 4. For example, the user will be described below. Figure 4The wall-mounted electrical accessory shown uses a rotating device 61 to adjust the parameters of the lighting device in a rotational manner, and the parameters have been synchronized to the smart watch 4 in the manner exemplified above. At this time, the parameters can be stored in the temporary memory (FLASH) of the smart watch 4 so that the user can continue to adjust them with the adjustment button 42 on this basis. In some cases, the rotation structure of the rotating device 61 or the structure of the potentiometer 621 may be different from the adjustment button 42 of the smart watch 4 (for example, the potentiometer 621 is provided with an adjustment limit end point while the adjustment button 42 can be rotated infinitely), so the rotation amount of the smart watch 4 is a linear replacement of the adjustment algorithm of the potentiometer 621. A similar adjustment button 55 may also be provided on the frame 51 of the smart glasses 5, but the shape may be a strip touch area as shown in the figure, so that the user can input the "±" instruction. In some embodiments, a sensor 52 (such as a piezoelectric sensor, an accelerometer or a piezoresistor, etc.) is also provided at the end of the frame of the smart glasses 5 to sense the user's wearing. That is to say, when the user is not wearing the smart glasses 5, the control function will not prompt the smart glasses 5 to perform any action, or only play or listen to voice information through the speaker 53 or the microphone 54, for example, only rely on acoustic elements to listen to voice content such as online news.

[0081] In some embodiments, after the wearable device changes the control parameters of the home appliance, the information synchronization is also performed on the display of the electrical accessory so that the user can return to the electrical accessory at any time to preview and / or control it. This is particularly important for any automation process that has been stored in the electrical accessory. For example, there are two basic control functions: (1) Switching (ON / OFF) the home appliance can be controlled by directly clicking, and the data information is synchronized on the wearable device. (2) Control of parameters such as the temperature of the air conditioner / fresh air fan equipment and the color temperature / brightness / color of the lighting equipment can be performed in a coordinated manner with the wearable device. For example, the adjustment button 42 of the smart watch 4 can be simulated on the display 10 of the wall-mounted electrical accessory to control by long pressing ±, clockwise "+" on the screen, and counterclockwise "-". Alternatively, the user's body surface temperature can be sensed by the sensor of the wearable device (such as the sensor 33 of the wristband 3), so as to more effectively determine whether the current indoor ambient temperature is suitable and whether the original temperature of the air conditioner / fresh air fan equipment needs to be adjusted. For the control of mode switching such as air conditioning mode, the control can also be performed by sliding the adjustment button 42 of the smart watch left / right (for example, each slide is regarded as a stepping value). When the adjustment operation is completed, the wall-mounted electrical accessory updates the display on its own display in real time. In some embodiments, the wearable device also updates the display on its own display in real time.

[0082] In some embodiments, a user may sometimes wear more than one wearable device. When distributing signaling, the wall-mounted electrical accessory may be configured to send different device attributes and feature values ​​to different wearable devices according to the characteristics of the wearable devices to meet different user personalized settings.

[0083] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a wall-mounted electrical appliance accessory according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0084] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the wall-mounted electrical accessory has a base 2 for installation in the wall of a building so as to connect the building electrical cables. The electrical cables may include, for example, an AC power line for connecting the building electrical load (e.g., one or more of lighting fixtures, circuit breakers, smart hosts, and fresh air blowers), Power Over Ethernet (PoE) for carrying control information, and one or more of an RS485 bus. In some embodiments, the base 2 of the wall-mounted electrical accessory may have multiple electrical interfaces of different types for plugging the aforementioned electrical cables to achieve bus control.

[0085] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory can integrate more electrical functions, for example, by setting the interface 13 to electrically connect an external device to transmit control information, or update some electronic functions already stored in the current wall-mounted electrical accessory. As some implementations, the functions of the wall-mounted electrical accessory itself can be enriched by updating its content.

[0086] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory device also has a built-in voice interaction component 12 for facilitating voice interaction with the user. The voice interaction component includes, for example, one or more of a speaker and a microphone. In some embodiments, the speaker and / or the microphone may be arranged on the side wall of the wall-mounted electrical accessory.

[0087] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted electrical accessory further comprises a sensor for sensing environmental information. The environmental information, for example, comprises one or more of temperature, humidity, and dust concentration. In some embodiments, the side surface of the wall-mounted electrical accessory has one or more heat dissipation holes 14. The heat dissipation holes 14 are particularly useful for dissipating heat from a control board built into the electrical accessory when the PoE bus is connected.

[0088] In some embodiments, the housing 1 of the wall-mounted electrical accessory is provided with a display 10 and may be provided with one or more buttons 11. In some embodiments, the function of the button 11 may be wirelessly defined or changed through a wearable device or a mobile phone or other device. The button 11 is also called an electronic switch.

[0089] In some embodiments, seams 15 may be provided between the buttons 11 to allow, for example, infrared light to be transmitted therethrough for sensing whether a human body is approaching.

[0090] Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of wall-mounted electrical appliance accessories according to other embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0091] Combine the following Figure 4 and one These embodiments describe the structure of a wall-mounted electrical accessory.

[0092] In some embodiments, the electrical accessory includes a base 66 , a control panel 62 a , a rotating device 61 , and a touch display 60 .

[0093] The base 66 is used for installation in a building wall.

[0094] The control panel 62a is connected to the base 66 and includes a housing 62 and a control panel 63. The control panel 63 is used to control the state of the household appliance based on the first control signal sent by the rotating device 61.

[0095] The rotating device 61 is mounted on a front surface 623 of the housing 62 facing away from the base 66 , and is configured to rotate in response to a user operation to send a first control signal to the control board 63 .

[0096] The touch display 60 is mounted on the rotating device 61 and is used to display information of household appliances.

[0097] In the above embodiment, the touch display 60 is installed on the rotating device 61. This integrated installation allows the wall-mounted electrical appliance accessory to not only display the information of the home appliance, but also to control the status of the home appliance conveniently, accurately and smoothly, allowing the user to operate more intuitively, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0098] Furthermore, since the rotating device 61 can accommodate the touch display 60 and the size of the rotating device 61 is relatively large, the rotating device 61 is more sensitive to the user's rotation operation, which can improve the accuracy of the user's control of the state of the home appliance and improve the user experience.

[0099] In some embodiments, the rotating device 61 has a space for accommodating the touch display 60 , and the touch display 60 is embedded in the space.

[0100] In some embodiments, the rotating device 61 includes a potentiometer 621 and a rotating member 611. The potentiometer 621 is mounted on the front surface 623 of the housing 62. The potentiometer 621 is, for example, a ring potentiometer. The rotating member 611 is rotatably mounted on the potentiometer 621 and has a space for accommodating the touch display 60. For example, the touch display 60 is embedded in the center of the rotating member 611. The touch display 60 is fixedly mounted on the front surface 623 relative to the rotating member 611.

[0101] In some embodiments, a card 624 is provided on the control panel 62a to couple to the potentiometer 621 of the rotating device 61 to sense the rotation amount. The potentiometer 621 is also equipped with a microcontroller 625 to determine the amplitude / micro granularity (or accuracy) of the rotation amount, thereby determining the specific value of the rotation amount signal received by it instead of receiving a fixed value in segments, which is conducive to improving the sensitivity of the adjustment, and is particularly beneficial for temperature and humidity adjustment.

[0102] In some embodiments, the control board 63 may include multiple components. For example, the control board 63 may include a control element electrically connected to the touch display 60, a magnetic latching relay connected in series to the peripheral bus interface 661 of the base 66, a 485 communication interface element (such as a fresh air machine cooling main control board), an electric circuit breaker interface, etc.

[0103] In some embodiments, the control panel 62a further includes a back panel 64. The back panel 64 is connected to the housing 62 to form a cavity, and is connected to the base 66. The control panel 63 is installed in the cavity formed by the back panel 64 and the housing 62.

[0104] In the above embodiment, the cavity formed by the back plate 64 and the shell 62 can provide a physical barrier for the control panel to protect it from external collisions and scratches, thereby helping to ensure the normal operation of the control panel and extend its service life.

[0105] In some embodiments, the base 66 has a cover plate 65, and the cover plate 65 is provided with a first interface 651. The back plate 64 is provided with a second interface 641, and the first interface 651 and the second interface 641 are fixed by plugging.

[0106] In the above embodiment, the cover plate 65 and the back plate 64 are fixed by plugging. The plugging method does not require the use of additional tools such as screws, nuts, etc. for fastening. It only needs to align and insert the first interface 651 and the second interface 641 to achieve the connection between the cover plate and the back plate, which is beneficial to improve the installation speed and save assembly time and labor costs. Secondly, the plug-in interface can usually provide fixing force in multiple directions, which can not only ensure the stability of the connection in the axial direction, but also play a certain limiting role in the radial direction, so that the cover plate and the back plate can maintain a relatively fixed position relationship in all directions, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the overall structure. Finally, when it is necessary to inspect, maintain or replace parts inside the equipment, the plug-in connection method is convenient for quick disassembly. It only needs to pull out the interface to easily separate the cover plate 65 and the back plate 64, which reduces the maintenance cost and difficulty and improves the maintainability of the equipment.

[0107] In some embodiments, the electrical accessory further includes a communication module 67. The communication module 67 is used to communicate with at least one of a wearable device and a household device. The communication module 67 is connected to the control board 63.

[0108] In some embodiments, the communication module 67 supports WI-FI or BLE related communication elements. In some embodiments, the communication module 67 also includes more types of communication modules than existing electronic devices, such as ZigBee, RS485 communication elements, etc. It should be understood that the electrical accessories have corresponding and compatible communication elements with the user's electronic devices, especially wearable devices. In some embodiments, the communication module 67 can be designed as a sub-board separately, connected to the controller 631 of the control board 63 through the connector 632 by wiring, or directly integrated on the control board 63.

[0109] In some embodiments, the communication module 67 is specifically configured to perform a signal amplification function, thereby extending the number of nearby wireless RF access signals received and the number of wireless nodes accessed and the allocated resources as much as possible. For example, the wall-mounted electrical accessories are also connected to other home sub-devices to forward or transparently transmit the user's control instructions. When multiple wearable devices are bound through a protocol handshake, the communication module 67 can allocate bandwidth to multiple wearable devices in a direction without affecting the previously connected sub-devices.

[0110] In some embodiments, the electrical accessory further includes an antenna assembly (not shown in the figure). The antenna assembly is plugged into the interface 671 of the communication module 67 and is located on the back surface of the housing 62 facing the base 66 .

[0111] In the above embodiment, the antenna assembly is disposed on the back surface of the housing 62 , which is beneficial for providing better transmission efficiency.

[0112] As some implementations, the type of antenna can be appropriately selected according to the actual installation area. For example, an F-shaped antenna plate can be selected.

[0113] In some embodiments, the electrical accessory further includes a sensor for sensing environmental information, which includes, for example, one or more of temperature, humidity, and dust concentration.

[0114] In the above embodiments, the functions of the electrical accessories are expanded so that the electrical accessories can sense environmental information, which facilitates the electrical accessories to accurately adjust home appliances and thus accurately adjust the home environment.

[0115] As some implementations, electrical accessories can display environmental information sensed by sensors, which helps users to intuitively understand information about the home environment.

[0116] In some embodiments, the sensor ( Figure 4 The sensor is mounted in a cavity formed by the back plate 64 and the housing 62 (not shown). In the above embodiment, the cavity formed by the back plate 64 and the housing 62 can provide a physical barrier for the sensor to protect it from external collisions and scratches, thereby helping to ensure the normal operation of the control board and extend its service life.

[0117] In some embodiments, the sensor and the control board 63 are stacked in the cavity. The thickness of the side wall of the housing is limited by industry standards, so the thickness of the cavity is also relatively limited. The stacked arrangement can reasonably utilize the longitudinal space.

[0118] In some embodiments, part of the structure of the sensor is located on at least one of the back surface of the shell 62 facing the base 66 and the inner wall of the side surface of the shell 62, which is beneficial for making the sensor closer to the environment outside the shell, thereby improving the sensing accuracy of the sensor.

[0119] In some embodiments, the electrical accessory further includes a voice interaction component. The voice interaction component includes one or more of a speaker and a microphone. The electrical accessory can perform voice interaction with the user through the voice interaction component, which is conducive to improving the convenience of interaction between the user and the electrical accessory and improving the user experience.

[0120] In some embodiments, the side surface of the housing 62 has one or more heat dissipation holes 622 .

[0121] As some implementations, the wall-mounted electrical accessory includes a temperature and humidity sensor, which is disposed near the heat dissipation hole 622 and coupled to the controller 631 on the control board 63 to transmit a real-time sensing signal.

[0122] As some implementations, the number and shape of the heat dissipation holes 622 can be determined according to the sensing indicator setting mode of the wall-mounted electrical accessory. For example, in the case where the wall-mounted electrical accessory has a function of sensing the ambient temperature by infrared means (for example, using a dry-bulb sensor to sense the ambient temperature), heat dissipation holes that are close enough can be set to ensure the basic rigidity and insulation of the electrical accessory housing. The setting of the heat dissipation holes 622 is also conducive to dissipating the heat of the control board built into the electrical accessory. For example, the heat dissipation holes 622 can be symmetrically opened on the two side walls of the electrical accessory to improve the heat dissipation effect.

[0123] In some embodiments, the touch display 60 is used to send a second control signal to the control board 63 in response to the user selecting the home appliance. The control board 63 is used to control the state of the home appliance based on the first control signal and the second control signal.

[0124] As some implementations, the user can touch the display 60 to select the required home control function when rotating the rotating device 61, and adjust the state of the connected load device by rotating a certain angle, such as one or more of the brightness of the light, the power of the fan, and the motor speed of the curtain.

[0125] Combine the following Figure 2 Introduce the structure of wearable devices.

[0126] In some embodiments, the wearable device may include a wireless communication module, a display module, and an operation control module.

[0127] The wireless communication module supports, for example, one or more communication protocols such as WI-FI and Bluetooth (such as BLE). In some embodiments, the wireless communication module identifies and binds to the wall-mounted electrical accessory in a radio frequency manner or in a close radio frequency coupling manner, and then establishes a binding private key for handshake trust to determine access to the home system. The wireless communication module can also be configured to determine an effective communication threshold range with one or more wall-mounted electrical accessories to effectively and timely disconnect certain wireless connections. In some embodiments, the setting of the effective communication threshold range can be set by installing a driver engine on the wearable device. In some embodiments, wireless communication over a longer distance can be maintained as needed, which may result in a lower transmission rate. Considering that the transmission content is usually the short message content of certain home appliances, the low transmission rate will not have a significant impact on the transmission process. "Drive engine" can refer to application process software, functional firmware, or modular components executed by a processor / microcontroller built into any wearable device / wall-mounted electrical accessory to run to perform corresponding different functions. For example, the driving engine can be set to make the accelerometer / vibrator built into or on the surface of the wristband 3 perform a sensing action when the wristband 3 and one or more wall-mounted electrical accessories currently nearby need to perform a wireless handshake, or to make the vibrator vibrate to prompt the user how to perform a gesture action next, so as to respond to the wall-mounted electrical accessories waiting for a response. For another example, multiple types of driving engines can be configured to enable processors and controllers to execute synchronously.

[0128] The display module includes, for example, a display 41. The display 41 is, for example, any one of a liquid crystal display (LCD) or an organic electroluminescence display (OLED). In some embodiments, using the aforementioned driving engine, the display module 41 can be configured to have the same or equivalent display content as the display (e.g., a touch display) of a wall-mounted electrical accessory. It should be understood that the display content of the display module needs to be generated by the driving engine.

[0129] The operation control module can respond to one or more of the touch information sensed by the touch panel on the surface of the display 41, the vibration information sensed by the wristband, and the body surface pressure sensed by the optical sensor, for example, by driving the built-in vibration motor to generate body vibration, etc. In some embodiments, the display module, the operation control module and the microprocessor are integrated together.

[0130] Each embodiment in this specification is described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other. For the control method embodiment of the household appliance executed by the wearable device, since it basically corresponds to the control method embodiment of the household appliance executed by the wall-mounted electrical accessory, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the partial description of the method embodiment.

[0137] In some embodiments, when the communication quality between the wearable device and the wall-mounted electrical accessory does not meet the effective communication threshold range, the wearable device disconnects the communication connection with the wall-mounted electrical accessory.

[0138] In some embodiments, when the user performs a specific action, the wearable device sends a second message to the wall-mounted electrical accessory, so that the wall-mounted electrical accessory enters a listening mode from a low power consumption mode to receive a control instruction.
