[0002] With the growing popularity of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the widespread adoption of smart homes, the rental market is experiencing widespread demand for whole-home smart features. When tenants change, handing over IoT (Internet of Things) homes to new tenants is almost impossible. Furthermore, because whole-home smart features involve user data, this data should be reset when an IoT home is handed over to a new tenant.

[0052] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments described are only a portion of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are also within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0053] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flowchart of a method for reconfiguring a home host sub-device according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a home host and may specifically include the following steps:

[0054] Step S101, obtaining host configuration data of a target home host configured for one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host from a backup end;

[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, a home host can be connected to one or more sub-devices, and the home host can configure one or more sub-devices, for example, to preset a scene in the home host for linkage control between multiple sub-devices. Among them, the home host is a whole-house smart connection hub and data center device with the ability to connect various protocol devices and local storage and computing capabilities. Sub-devices can be various household appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, dryers, water heaters, lamps, etc. For example:

[0056] (1) Common smart home devices equipped with a WiFi + Bluetooth combination module, supporting multiple protocols such as WiFi UDP, TCP, HTTP, Bluetooth BLE, MESH, etc., and capable of transmitting a certain amount of data. Common smart home devices include air conditioners, air purifiers, fans, kitchen appliances, etc.

[0057] (2) Single Bluetooth device, supports Bluetooth protocols such as BLE and MESH, and can transmit a certain amount of data. Common smart lights, smart switch panels, curtains, etc.

[0058] In actual applications, the home host may include host configuration data, which is associated with the control of one or more current sub-devices. In a rental scenario, since each tenant has different habits, the host configuration data needs to be reset when the tenant changes. In order to quickly reset the host configuration data and quickly re-configure the sub-devices, a backup end can be introduced. The backup end is used to back up the host configuration data stored in the home host. In actual applications, the backup end can be used to back up the initial host configuration data so that when the tenant is changed, all sub-devices can be reset with the initial host configuration data to quickly restore them to the initial configuration state.

[0059] In one example, the backup device can be a cloud or an SD (Secure Digital) card. The backup device stores the host configuration data, which is the initial data. Furthermore, when the tenant changes, the home host can retrieve the host configuration data from the backup device.

[0060] Network configuration software, as used in this invention, refers to a specialized tool or application used to connect Internet of Things (IoT) devices or other intelligent terminals (such as Wi-Fi modules and smart home devices) to a network. Its primary function is to simplify the device network access process and ensure that the device can correctly access the local network (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc.) or cloud platform.

[0061] Step S102, in response to the connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host, generating a reset instruction for reconfiguring the one or more sub-devices;

[0062] After restoring the target home host's configuration data via the backup client, the target home host can be connected using network configuration software to facilitate network configuration of multiple sub-devices. Specifically, the user can directly connect the network configuration software to the target home host. At this point, the target home host determines that a sub-device reset is required and generates a reset command, which can quickly reset one or more sub-devices.

[0063] Step S103: sending the reset instruction to the one or more sub-devices to enable network configuration between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software;

[0064] After generating the reset instruction, the target home host may send the reset instruction to one or more sub-devices, and then the one or more sub-devices may respond to the reset instruction to perform network configuration reset.

[0065] Step S104: After detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration, the host configuration data is sent to the one or more sub-devices, so that the one or more sub-devices are configured according to the host configuration data.

[0066] During the sub-device reconfiguration process, the target home host can detect the network configuration status. When it is determined that all sub-devices are successfully configured, the host configuration data recovered from the backup end can be sent to one or more sub-devices. Then, the sub-devices can complete the configuration according to the received host configuration data.

[0067] In this embodiment of the present invention, sub-devices can be quickly restored to their initial data through a reset. For tenant scenarios, landlords can use a backup terminal to back up host configuration data before a tenant moves in. During the tenant's stay, the host can be used to configure its own sub-device control scheme. When the tenant leaves, before the next tenant moves in, the backup terminal can be used to retrieve the initial host configuration data, reconfigure the network for multiple sub-devices, and then use the host configuration data to reset the sub-devices.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present invention, host configuration data for configuring one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host is obtained from a backup end; a reset instruction for reconfiguring the one or more sub-devices is generated in response to a connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host; the reset instruction is sent to the one or more sub-devices to enable network configuration between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software; after detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration, the host configuration data is sent to the one or more sub-devices to enable the one or more sub-devices to be configured according to the host configuration data. By obtaining the initial host configuration data stored in the backup end, fast and convenient network configuration is achieved, thereby reducing the difficulty of using the smart home.

[0069] Reference Figure 2 , shows a flowchart of the steps of another method for reconfiguring a home host sub-device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a home host and may specifically include the following steps:

[0070] Step S201: In response to a backup operation for the target home host, obtaining host configuration data configured by the target home host for one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host, and backing up the host configuration data to a backup end;

[0071] In an embodiment of the present invention, a backup function can be configured on the target home host. When the user performs a backup operation, the backup function is activated, and the host configuration data between the current host and the sub-device is retrieved and backed up to a backup destination. This data backup prevents data loss and allows for rapid data reset on the sub-device.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present invention, a home host can be connected to one or more sub-devices, and the home host can configure one or more sub-devices, for example, to preset a scene in the home host for linkage control between multiple sub-devices. Among them, the home host is a whole-house smart connection hub and data center device with the ability to connect various protocol devices and local storage and computing capabilities. Sub-devices can be various household appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, dryers, water heaters, lamps, etc. For example:

[0073] (1) Common smart home devices equipped with a WiFi + Bluetooth combination module, supporting multiple protocols such as WiFi UDP, TCP, HTTP, Bluetooth BLE, MESH, etc., and capable of transmitting a certain amount of data. Common smart home devices include air conditioners, air purifiers, fans, kitchen appliances, etc.

[0074] (2) Single Bluetooth device, supports Bluetooth protocols such as BLE and MESH, and can transmit a certain amount of data. Common smart lights, smart switch panels, curtains, etc.

[0075] In one example, the backup device can be a cloud or an SD (Secure Digital) card. The backup device stores the host configuration data, which is the initial data. Furthermore, when the tenant changes, the home host can retrieve the host configuration data from the backup device.

[0076] Network configuration software, as used in this invention, refers to a specialized tool or application used to connect Internet of Things (IoT) devices or other intelligent terminals (such as Wi-Fi modules and smart home devices) to a network. Its primary function is to simplify the device network access process and ensure that the device can correctly access the local network (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc.) or cloud platform.

[0077] Step S202: In response to a preset event triggering operation for restoring configuration data, the host configuration data is obtained from the backup end.

[0078] In actual applications, the host stores real-time configuration data associated with one or more sub-devices. When the user activates the recovery function, the pre-stored host configuration data can be obtained from the backup end.

[0079] Step S203, in response to the connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host, generating a reset instruction for reconfiguring the one or more sub-devices;

[0080] In actual applications, the home host may include host configuration data, which is associated with the control of one or more current sub-devices. In a rental scenario, since each tenant has different habits, the host configuration data needs to be reset when the tenant changes. In order to quickly reset the host configuration data and quickly re-configure the sub-devices, a backup end can be introduced. The backup end is used to back up the host configuration data stored in the home host. In actual applications, the backup end can be used to back up the initial host configuration data so that when the tenant is changed, all sub-devices can be reset with the initial host configuration data to quickly restore them to the initial configuration state.

[0081] Step S204: sending the reset instruction to the one or more sub-devices to enable network configuration between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software;

[0082] After restoring the target home host's configuration data via the backup client, the target home host can be connected using network configuration software to facilitate network configuration of multiple sub-devices. Specifically, the user can directly connect the network configuration software to the target home host. At this point, the target home host determines that a sub-device reset is required and generates a reset command, which can quickly reset one or more sub-devices.

[0083] Step S205 : After detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration, the host configuration data is sent to the one or more sub-devices, so that the one or more sub-devices are configured according to the host configuration data.

[0084] During the sub-device reconfiguration process, the target home host can detect the network configuration status. When it is determined that all sub-devices are successfully configured, the host configuration data recovered from the backup end can be sent to one or more sub-devices. Then, the sub-devices can complete the configuration according to the received host configuration data.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present invention, the home host may update the host configuration data in response to a device change operation on the home host and the one or more sub-devices.

[0086] In actual applications, while tenants are using devices, there may be changes to the device, such as host replacement, sub-device addition, sub-device deletion, sub-device replacement, etc. In the event of a device change, the host configuration data can be updated accordingly to avoid errors during subsequent reconfiguration.

[0087] In one embodiment of the present invention, the home host may obtain device configuration data of the newly added sub-device in response to a device change operation for adding the new sub-device; and update the host configuration data based on the device configuration data.

[0088] When a new device is added, the configuration data of the new device can be backed up and the host configuration data can be updated.

[0089] Similarly, when a sub-device is deleted or deactivated, the configuration data of the sub-device may be correspondingly deleted from the host configuration data.

[0090] In practice, tenants can add devices themselves. If they take the device with them after moving out, the device will not be included in the data after restoring the initial data. If they leave the device behind, the landlord can add it to the initial data.

[0091] For example: The home host originally manages three sub-devices ABC. If a device D is added during the use of the previous tenant, if the tenant is changed and reset, the data of the three devices ABC will be reset to the initial data. If device D is left, the landlord can configure device D to the initial data.

[0092] In another embodiment of the present invention, in response to a device change operation for replacing a target home host, data of the target home host is migrated to a new host, and associated information of the target home host in the host configuration data is modified to correspond to information of the new host.

[0093] In actual application, only one host is supported in a home, and the data after replacement is the same as the original host.

[0094] In another embodiment of the present invention, in response to a device change operation for replacing a target sub-device with a new sub-device, host configuration data is updated based on the replaced new sub-device.

[0095] The equipment replacement process can be divided into landlord replacement and tenant replacement, as follows:

[0096] (1) Landlord Replacement: Device damage will cause the device to fail to initialize. The landlord can use the device replacement function to change the configuration in the initial data and initialize again after completing the device replacement.

[0097] (2) Tenant replacement:

[0098] ① The tenant uses the device replacement function to change the configuration in the tenant data and complete the device replacement.

[0099] ② If the original device is damaged, the software function can be used to notify the landlord to change the initial configuration. After the landlord confirms, the replacement logic can be copied to the initial configuration to complete the device replacement.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present invention, host configuration data for configuring one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host is obtained from a backup end; a reset instruction for reconfiguring the one or more sub-devices is generated in response to a connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host; the reset instruction is sent to the one or more sub-devices to enable network configuration between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software; after detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration, the host configuration data is sent to the one or more sub-devices to enable the one or more sub-devices to be configured according to the host configuration data. By obtaining the initial host configuration data stored in the backup end, fast and convenient network configuration is achieved, thereby reducing the difficulty of using the smart home.

[0101] Reference Figure 3 , shows a flowchart of another method for reconfiguring a home host sub-device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a sub-device and may specifically include the following steps:

[0102] Step S301: receiving a reset instruction sent by a target home host connected to one or more sub-devices; the reset instruction is generated by the target home host in response to a connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host after the target home host obtains host configuration data configured for the one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host from a backup terminal;

[0103] In an embodiment of the present invention, one or more sub-devices are connected to a home host, where the home host is a whole-house smart connection hub or data center device that has the ability to connect to various protocol devices and local storage and computing capabilities. The sub-devices can be various household appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, dryers, water heaters, lamps, etc. For example:

[0104] (1) Common smart home devices equipped with a WiFi + Bluetooth combination module, supporting multiple protocols such as WiFi UDP, TCP, HTTP, Bluetooth BLE, MESH, etc., and capable of transmitting a certain amount of data. Common smart home devices include air conditioners, air purifiers, fans, kitchen appliances, etc.

[0105] (2) Single Bluetooth device, supports Bluetooth protocols such as BLE and MESH, and can transmit a certain amount of data. Common smart lights, smart switch panels, curtains, etc.

[0106] In actual applications, the home host can also be connected to the backup end, and the initial host configuration data of the home host can be backed up to the backup end storage. When the sub-device needs to be reset, the home host can restore the host configuration data to achieve the sub-device reset.

[0107] When the home host is connected to the network configuration software, it can generate a reset instruction and then send the reset instruction to one or more sub-devices to trigger the sub-devices to re-configure the network and reset.

[0108] Step S302: performing network configuration between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software based on the reset instruction;

[0109] After the sub-device receives the reset instruction, the sub-device interacts with the network configuration software to achieve re-network configuration.

[0110] Step S303, receiving host configuration data sent by the target home host after detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration;

[0111] After the sub-device and the network configuration software have completed the network configuration, the target home host can send the host configuration data restored from the backup end to the group device to facilitate the reconfiguration of the sub-device.

[0112] Step S304: configure according to the host configuration data.

[0113] After receiving the host configuration data, the sub-device can directly apply the data to achieve reconfiguration.

[0114] In an embodiment of the present invention, a reset instruction is received from a target home host connected to one or more sub-devices; the reset instruction is generated by the target home host in response to a connection operation between network configuration software and the target home host after the target home host obtains host configuration data configured by the target home host for one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host from a backup end; network configuration is performed between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software based on the reset instruction; the target home host receives host configuration data sent after detecting that the network configuration of the one or more sub-devices is completed; and configuration is performed according to the host configuration data. By obtaining the initial host configuration data stored in the backup end, fast and convenient network configuration is achieved, thereby reducing the difficulty of using a smart home.

[0115] Reference Figure 4 , shows a flowchart of another method for reconfiguring a home host sub-device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a sub-device and may specifically include the following steps:

[0116] Step S401: receiving a reset instruction sent by a target home host connected to one or more sub-devices; the reset instruction is generated by the target home host in response to a connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host after the target home host obtains host configuration data configured for the one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host from a backup terminal;

[0117] Step S402, in response to the received reset instruction, releasing the hotspot signal of the sub-device;

[0118] After receiving the reset instruction, the sub-device releases a hotspot signal, wherein the hotspot signal may be a Bluetooth hotspot signal.

[0119] Step S403, receiving a response signal generated by the network configuration software based on the hotspot signal;

[0120] The network configuration software can respond after searching for the hotspot signal of the sub-device, that is, generate a response signal, and feed the response signal back to the sub-device so that the sub-device can determine that there is interactive network configuration software.

[0121] Step S404: exchanging network configuration information with the network configuration software based on the response signal.

[0122] After receiving the response signal, the sub-device can continue to interact with the network configuration software. Through interaction, network configuration information can be transmitted to each other, and then network configuration can be executed based on the network configuration information of both parties.

[0123] Step S405, receiving host configuration data sent by the target home host after detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration;

[0124] Step S406: configure according to the host configuration data.

[0125] In an embodiment of the present invention, host configuration data for configuring one or more sub-devices connected to the target home host is obtained from a backup end; a reset instruction for reconfiguring the one or more sub-devices is generated in response to a connection operation between the network configuration software and the target home host; the reset instruction is sent to the one or more sub-devices to enable network configuration between the one or more sub-devices and the network configuration software; after detecting that the one or more sub-devices have completed network configuration, the host configuration data is sent to the one or more sub-devices to enable the one or more sub-devices to be configured according to the host configuration data. By obtaining the initial host configuration data stored in the backup end, fast and convenient network configuration is achieved, thereby reducing the difficulty of using the smart home.

[0126] Reference Figure 5 , shows a schematic diagram of a multi-terminal interaction process in an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the interaction process between the SD backup terminal, the home host, the network configuration software, and the sub-devices can be specifically divided into the following processes:

[0127] (1) Data backup and recovery process:

[0128] Before renting out the apartment for the first time, the landlord can use a button on the home console to back up the console data to an SD card and then remove the SD card from the home console. When a new tenant changes, the landlord inserts the SD card with the initial data into the home console and uses a button to restore the SD card data (i.e., the backup data) to the home console.

[0129] (2) Network distribution stage:

[0130] The network configuration software connects to the home host, enters the data recovery function, and triggers the reset of the sub-device; the home host can generate a special Bluetooth broadcast scenario instruction: a sub-device reset instruction, and send the instruction to the sub-device. After receiving the reset instruction, the sub-device enters the reset state and releases the device Bluetooth hotspot; the network configuration software discovers the sub-device through the Bluetooth hotspot and then responds. The sub-device interacts with the network configuration software, exchanges network configuration information, and completes the network configuration of the sub-device.

[0131] (3) Configuration phase:

[0132] The network configuration software monitors the device configuration progress. Once the configuration is complete, it triggers the home host to send the device configuration data to the sub-device. The sub-device receives and loads the program and device configuration data, and returns the result. This completes the reconfiguration process and restores the sub-device to its initial configuration.
