Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of door lock technology, and in particular to a remote unlocking and opening / closing status monitoring system for a smart door lock, as well as a remote unlocking and opening / closing status monitoring method for a smart door lock. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional smart door locks often determine the locking status solely based on the position of the latch, failing to link this information to the door's opening and closing status. For example, if the door is not fully closed but the latch is extended, the system may misinterpret it as "locked," leading to a security risk. Conversely, if the door is closed but the latch is not extended, the user cannot be notified remotely of the risk of the door being unlocked. This single-dimensional monitoring method is insufficient to provide users with accurate control over their home security.

[0003] Existing automatic locking functions mostly use a fixed countdown (e.g., 30 seconds) trigger mechanism, lacking room for user-friendly adjustments. As the user feedback in the meeting minutes stated: "When I came home from grocery shopping, the latch had already extended before I could put my things away within 30 seconds, making it impossible to close the door, and I had to manually turn the latch back." This rigid design is prone to causing the latch to jam, increasing the user's operational burden and defeating the original intention of convenience for smart devices. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the remote unlocking and opening / closing status monitoring systems of the aforementioned smart door locks, this invention is proposed.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the remote unlocking and opening / closing status monitoring system for the smart door lock described in this invention, the rear lock motherboard has a built-in AES-256 encryption chip to perform end-to-end encryption on remote communication data (unlocking commands, status feedback, and camera footage). It also integrates a WiFi module and a Bluetooth module, acting as a gateway for remote communication. The Bluetooth module limits the communication range to 0.5-3 meters through power adjustment to prevent remote relay attacks. The WiFi module employs a "always-on" mechanism, sending a heartbeat packet (containing device ID and battery level) every 30-60 seconds to ensure a remote command response time of ≤5 seconds.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment of the remote unlocking and opening / closing status monitoring system for the smart door lock described in this invention, the front lock motherboard includes a remote interaction module and an automatic control module. The temporary access control mechanism of the remote interaction module is as follows: the user terminal requests a temporary key with an expiration time (adjustable from 1 minute to 24 hours) from the rear lock motherboard. The key contains a timestamp and a unique device identifier and is sent to the user terminal via WiFi. After the key is verified by the front lock motherboard, it can only trigger the unlocking action once. It will automatically expire and clear the local record. This is suitable for temporary visitor scenarios such as express delivery and maintenance. The delay time of the automatic control module can be adjusted (0-10 seconds) via the front button or the user terminal APP, and supports "Do Not Disturb Mode" (such as turning off automatic locking from 10 pm to 6 am the next day). When abnormal extension or retraction of the lock tongue is detected (such as the displacement sensor 404 detecting that the target position is not reached within 10 seconds), the front lock motherboard drives the motor to reverse and reset, and pushes a "lock tongue stuck" alarm to the user terminal.

[0020] A method for remotely unlocking and monitoring the open / closed status of a smart door lock, comprising the following steps:

[0021] Step 1: Real-time Status Monitoring and Judgment

[0022] The status monitoring component continuously collects and integrates data: the displacement sensor detects the extension and retraction distance of the bolt at the end of the lock body (extending ≥15mm is determined as "locked", retracting ≤2mm is determined as "unlocked"), and the angle sensor of the bolt drive position synchronously verifies the bolt status;

[0023] The magnet on the door frame works in conjunction with the latch guide block. When the door is closed (with a gap of ≤5mm), the Hall sensor is triggered and a "door closed" signal is output. When the door is opened, the signal disappears, indicating that the door is open.

[0024] The front locking main board integrates the above data to generate three types of status information: "door closed / locked", "door closed / unlocked", and "door open", which are then transmitted to the rear locking main board via wires.

[0025] Step Two: Initiating and Transmitting Remote Unlock Commands

[0026] Users initiate a remote unlocking request through the terminal APP, and verify their identity by entering the management password or biometrics (such as fingerprint);

[0027] After successful verification, the APP generates an unlocking command with a timestamp, which is encrypted using the AES-256 algorithm and transmitted to the WiFi module of the rear lock motherboard via mobile network or WiFi.

[0028] Step 3: Remote unlocking command execution and status feedback:

[0029] After the front locking motherboard verifies the validity of the command, it drives the motor of the rear locking component to rotate forward;

[0030] The motor drives the drive block through the main gear and auxiliary gear of the drive module, which drives the knob and the shaft to rotate, and the lock tongue retracts to the unlocked state of ≤2mm.

[0031] After the displacement sensor detects the "unlocked" state, it sends feedback to the front lock mainboard via the rear lock mainboard, and then pushes it to the user terminal APP, displaying "unlocked successfully"; at the same time, the display module synchronously displays the status, and the speaker emits a prompt tone;

[0032] When the smart lock is unlocked locally (indoor unlocking, fingerprint or password or card unlocking from outside), the unlocking information will be sent to the administrator's mobile phone via Wi-Fi to monitor the unlocking status in real time.

[0033] Step 4: Automatic Locking Triggering and Execution:

[0034] When the current lock mainboard determines the status as "door closed but not locked" (door closed and bolt not extended), the automatic control module will start with an adjustable delay of 0-10 seconds (default 3 seconds, which can be set via the front button or APP).

[0035] If the status monitoring component detects "door open" (magnetic sensing disappears) during the delay period, automatic locking will be immediately suspended.

[0036] When the delay ends and the door remains closed, the front lock mainboard drive motor reverses, driving the bolt to extend to ≥15mm (locked state) through the drive module, and pushes the "automatic locking successful" status to the APP.

[0037] Step 5: Temporary Permission Request and Usage:

[0038] Users can apply for temporary unlocking permission from the rear lock motherboard through the terminal APP and set the time limit (1 minute to 24 hours).

[0039] The rear lock motherboard generates a temporary key containing a timestamp and a unique device identifier, and sends it to the user terminal via WiFi;

[0040] Visitors enter a temporary key via the front button. Once the front lock motherboard verifies the key, it triggers a single unlock (the process is the same as step 3). The key expires automatically and the local record is cleared.

[0041] Step Six: Exception Handling and Local Prompts:

[0042] If the displacement sensor detects that the bolt has not reached the target position within 10 seconds (stuck), the front lock mainboard drive motor will reverse and reset, and at the same time push a "bolt stuck" alarm to the APP;

[0043] The three-color LED indicator on the rear lock motherboard provides feedback on the system status through the lighting mode (a solid green light indicates normal locking, a flashing yellow light indicates unlocking, and a flashing red light indicates an abnormality), which, together with the speaker in the front shell sound outlet, provides local prompts (such as low battery alarm and abnormal unlocking alarm).

[0044] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By linking the magnet 403 with dual sensors (displacement + angle), it can distinguish between "locked / closed," "unlocked / closed," and "open" states in real time, solving the problem of "state misjudgment" in traditional door locks; family members' unlocking information is pushed to the APP in real time, making it convenient for parents to keep track of their children's return home. The adjustable delay + door opening pause mechanism prevents the lock tongue from getting stuck when users bring items or return from grocery shopping, completely solving the rigidity defects of the old design; it supports a "do not disturb mode" (such as automatic locking when closing at night), catering to user habits.

[0045] It eliminates the cost and installation complexity of an external gateway. The time-limited key is valid only once and automatically expires, eliminating the need for physical key handover. This meets temporary unlocking needs such as for delivery or repairs, improving convenience. When unlocking the smart lock locally (indoor unlocking, external fingerprint, password, or card unlocking), the unlocking information is sent to the administrator's mobile phone via Wi-Fi, allowing real-time monitoring of the unlocking status.

[0075] Emergency and prompt structure: The bottom of the front shell 101 is encapsulated with a charging socket 108, which is connected to the front lock main board 103 through a wire for emergency power supply when the front lock is powered off; the internal side wall has a sound hole, which works with the speaker of the front lock main board 103 to provide local operation prompts (such as "incorrect password" "unlocked successfully") and alarm sound (volume ≥60dB).

[0076] (ii) The lock body assembly 200 is the core of mechanical transmission and locking execution;

[0077] The lock body assembly is the central mechanical transmission link connecting the front and rear locks, responsible for the physical extension and retraction of the bolt. Its structure includes:

[0078] Fixing and protection structure: The front sealing plate 201 is fixed to the side wall of the front lock frame 102 and serves as the connecting carrier between the front lock assembly and the lock housing 202; the lock housing 202 provides protection for the internal transmission components, with a fixed connecting ring 203 in the middle and a threaded connection at the end of the ring to the lock cylinder 204, ensuring stable transmission between the lock cylinder and the rotating shaft 206.

[0079] Transmission and locking structure: The lock body 205 is snapped onto the end of the lock shell 202, and the rotating shaft 206 is inserted into the center. One end is connected to the side wall of the lock cylinder 204, and the other end extends to the rear lock assembly. The lock tongue at the end of the lock body 205 can extend and retract along the lock tongue guide block 401 to realize the physical locking / unlocking of the door.

[0080] Structural reinforcement design: Guide rods 207 are symmetrically inserted into the side wall of the lock shell 202, and the ends are inserted into the lock body 205 to enhance the impact resistance of the lock body (can withstand ≥500N impact force) and prevent structural deformation caused by violent prying.

[0081] (iii) The rear lock assembly 300 is the core of remote communication and drive;

[0082] The rear locking component is the central hub for remote control, integrating gateway functions and driving mechanisms. Its structure includes:

[0083] Load-bearing and power supply structure: The rear lock frame 301 is inserted into the side wall of the lock housing 202, and the end of the rear housing 302 is fixed; the battery 304 is inserted into the inside of the rear housing 302, and its end terminal is snapped into the terminal block of the rear lock main board 303 to supply power to the rear lock main board; the rear button 308 is inserted into the side wall of the rear housing 302, and its end is in elastic contact with the rear lock main board 303 for manual unlocking / locking.

[0084] Communication and control core: The rear lock motherboard 303 is fixed in the middle of the rear shell 302 to realize the data interaction between the front lock and the remote terminal; it is connected to the front lock motherboard 103 through the wires inside the lock shell 202 to realize local data transmission.

[0085] The drive module 306 is fixed inside the rear housing 302 and consists of a lower housing 3061, a main gear 3062, a secondary gear 3063, a drive block 3064, and an upper housing 3065.

[0086] The lower shell 3061 and the upper shell 3065 are connected by bolts to form a dustproof and waterproof cavity (protection level IP54).

[0087] The main gear 3062 is driven by the output shaft of the motor 307 through a bevel gear, and the secondary gear 3063 meshes with the rack of the main gear 3062 and the drive block 3064 respectively;

[0088] The drive block 3064 is sleeved on the end of the knob 305, and the inner boss engages with the groove of the knob 305. The motor 307 rotates forward / reverse through gear transmission to drive the knob 305 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 206 and the locking tongue to extend and retract.

[0089] (iv) The status monitoring component 400 is used to monitor the linkage between the door body and the latch status;

[0090] The status monitoring component 400 achieves accurate detection of door opening / closing and latch status through multi-sensor collaboration. Its structure includes:

[0091] Lock tongue guiding and positioning structure: Lock tongue guide block 401 is fixed to the end of lock body 205 to provide guidance for the extension and retraction of lock tongue; Lock tongue positioning block 402 on the side wall of door frame has a positioning hole in the center, which cooperates with lock tongue to ensure locking accuracy.

[0092] Door status detection: The latch positioning block 402 encapsulates a magnet 403, which works in conjunction with the latch guide block 401. When the door is closed (spacing ≤ 5mm), the magnet 403 triggers the Hall effect in the latch guide block 401 and outputs a "door closed" signal. When the door is open, the signal disappears, thus realizing the door status judgment.

[0093] Lock tongue status detection: A displacement sensor 404 is fixed on the side wall of the lock tongue guide block 401. The sensing area corresponds to the side wall of the lock tongue to detect whether the lock tongue is extended (≥15mm is determined to be "locked") or retracted (≤2mm is determined to be "unlocked"). An angle sensor is added to the lock tongue drive position to work together with the displacement sensor 404 to verify and ensure the accuracy of status detection.

[0094] In use, the system achieves remote unlocking, automatic locking, and status monitoring through a closed-loop process of "local operation / remote command - driver execution - status feedback." The specific working logic is as follows:

[0095] (a) Local unlocking process (password / fingerprint)

[0096] Password unlocking: The user enters the password through the front button 104. After the front lock motherboard 103 verifies the password, it sends a command to the rear lock motherboard 303.

[0097] Fingerprint unlocking: The user presses their finger on the fingerprint module 106, the module collects the fingerprint information and transmits it to the front lock main board 103, and triggers the unlocking command after successful verification;

[0098] Drive execution: The rear lock main board 303 drives the motor 307 to rotate forward, the main gear 3062 drives the drive block 3064 to rotate through the secondary gear 3063, the knob 305 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 206, and the lock tongue retraction displacement sensor detects ≤2mm).

[0099] Status feedback: Display module 107 displays "unlocked", the speaker emits a prompt tone, and after the status is cleared, the lock motherboard 303 pushes the notification to the user terminal.

[0100] (II) Remote unlocking process

[0101] Command Initiation: The user sends a remote unlocking command through the terminal APP, which is encrypted and transmitted via WiFi to the WiFi module of the rear lock mainboard 303;

[0102] Decryption and verification: The rear lock motherboard 303 decrypts the command through the AES-256 chip, verifies the user's permissions, and then sends the command to the front lock motherboard 103 via the data cable;

[0103] Drive and feedback: The front lock mainboard 103 drives the motor 307 to rotate forward, and the bolt retracts; the displacement sensor 404 detects the "unlocked" state and transmits it back to the rear lock mainboard 303 via Bluetooth, and then pushes it to the user terminal (response time ≤ 5 seconds), completing the remote unlocking closed loop.

[0104] (iii) Status monitoring and automatic locking

[0105] Status linkage perception: Status monitoring components integrate data in real time;

[0106] Magnet 403 works in conjunction with latch guide block 401 to detect the opening and closing of the door;

[0107] Displacement sensor 404 and angle sensor detect the state of the latch;

[0108] The front lock motherboard 103 generates three statuses: "Door closed / locked", "Door closed / unlocked", and "Door open", which are then pushed to the APP via the rear lock motherboard 303.

[0109] Automatic locking mechanism:

[0110] When "door closed but not locked" is detected (door closed and bolt not extended), the automatic control module starts with an adjustable delay of 0-10 seconds (default 3 seconds, which can be adjusted via front button 104 or APP).

[0111] After the delay ends, motor 307 reverses to extend the bolt (≥15mm) and completes automatic locking;

[0112] If the door opens during the delay period (when the magnetic sensor disappears), immediately stop locking to prevent the bolt from jamming.

[0113] (iv) Temporary access control (applicable to visitor scenarios)

[0114] Permission Request: Users can request temporary permissions from the rear lock motherboard 303 via the terminal APP and set the time limit (1 minute - 24 hours).

[0115] Key generation and distribution: The rear lock motherboard 303 generates a temporary key containing a timestamp and device identifier, and distributes it to the user terminal via WiFi;

[0116] Verification and unlocking: When a visitor enters a key, the front lock motherboard 103 verifies the key and triggers a single unlock. The key expires and is automatically invalidated and the record is cleared, ensuring that permissions are controllable.

[0117] In summary, by linking the 403 magnet with dual sensors (displacement + angle), the system can distinguish between "locked / closed," "unlocked / closed," and "open" states in real time, solving the problem of "state misjudgment" in traditional door locks. Family members' unlocking information is pushed to the app in real time, allowing parents to easily track their children's return home. An adjustable delay and door-opening pause mechanism prevents the latch from jamming when users return home with items or groceries, completely overcoming the rigidity of old designs. A "do not disturb" mode (such as automatic locking at night) is also supported, catering to user habits.

[0118] It eliminates the cost and installation complexity of an external gateway. The time-limited key is valid only once and automatically expires, eliminating the need for physical key handover. This meets temporary unlocking needs such as for delivery or repairs, improving convenience. When unlocking the smart lock locally (indoor unlocking, external fingerprint, password, or card unlocking), the unlocking information is sent to the administrator's mobile phone via Wi-Fi, allowing real-time monitoring of the unlocking status.

[0119] Example 2

[0120] Reference Figure 1-6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that it provides a method for remotely unlocking and monitoring the open / closed status of a smart door lock, comprising the following steps:

[0121] Step 1: Real-time Status Monitoring and Judgment

[0122] The status monitoring component continuously collects and integrates data: the displacement sensor 404 detects the extension and retraction distance of the bolt at the end of the lock body 205 (extending ≥15mm is determined as "locked", retracting ≤2mm is determined as "unlocked"), and the angle sensor of the bolt drive position synchronously verifies the bolt status;

[0123] The magnet 403 on the door frame cooperates with the latch guide block 401. When the door is closed (the gap is ≤5mm), the Hall sensor is triggered and a "door closed" signal is output. When the door is opened, the signal disappears and it is determined that the "door is open".

[0124] The front locking main board 103 integrates the above data to generate three types of status information: "door closed and locked", "door closed and unlocked" and "door open", which are then transmitted to the rear locking main board 303 via wires.

[0125] Step Two: Initiating and Transmitting Remote Unlock Commands

[0126] Users initiate a remote unlocking request through the terminal APP, and verify their identity by entering the management password or biometrics (such as fingerprint);

[0127] After successful verification, the APP generates an unlocking command with a timestamp, which is encrypted using the AES-256 algorithm and transmitted to the WiFi module of the rear lock motherboard 303 via mobile network or WiFi.

[0128] Step 3: Remote unlocking command execution and status feedback:

[0129] After the front lock motherboard 103 verifies the legality of the command, it drives the motor 307 of the rear lock assembly 300 to rotate forward;

[0130] The motor 307 drives the drive block 3064 through the main gear 3062 and the auxiliary gear 3063 of the drive module 306, which drives the knob 305 and the rotating shaft 206 to rotate, and the lock tongue retracts to the unlocked state of ≤2mm.

[0131] After the displacement sensor 404 detects the "unlocked" state, it feeds back to the front lock mainboard 103 through the rear lock mainboard 303, and then pushes it to the user terminal APP, displaying "unlocked successfully"; at the same time, the display module 107 displays the status synchronously, and the speaker emits a prompt tone.

[0132] When the smart lock is unlocked locally (indoor unlocking, fingerprint or password or card unlocking from outside), the unlocking information will be sent to the administrator's mobile phone via Wi-Fi to monitor the unlocking status in real time.

[0133] Step 4: Automatic Locking Triggering and Execution:

[0134] When the current lock mainboard 103 determines the status as "door closed but not locked" (door closed and bolt not extended), the automatic control module starts with an adjustable delay of 0-10 seconds (default 3 seconds, which can be set via the front button 104 or the APP).

[0135] If the status monitoring component detects "door open" (magnetic sensing disappears) during the delay period, automatic locking will be immediately suspended.

[0136] When the delay ends and the door remains closed, the front lock main board 103 drives the motor 307 to reverse, which drives the bolt to extend to ≥15mm (locked state) through the drive module 306, and pushes the "automatic locking successful" status to the APP.

[0137] Step 5: Temporary Permission Request and Usage:

[0138] Users can apply for temporary unlocking permission from the rear lock motherboard 303 through the terminal APP and set the time limit (1 minute to 24 hours).

[0139] The rear lock motherboard 303 generates a temporary key containing a timestamp and a unique device identifier, and sends it to the user terminal via WiFi;

[0140] Visitors enter a temporary key via the front button 104. After successful verification by the front lock motherboard 103, a single unlock is triggered (the process is the same as step 3). The key expires automatically and the local record is cleared.

[0141] Step Six: Exception Handling and Local Prompts:

[0142] If the displacement sensor 404 detects that the bolt has not reached the target position within 10 seconds (stuck), the front lock main board 103 drives the motor 307 to reverse and reset, and at the same time pushes a "bolt stuck" alarm to the APP.

[0143] The three-color LED indicator on the rear lock motherboard 303 provides feedback on the system status through the lighting mode (a solid green light indicates normal locking, a flashing yellow light indicates unlocking, and a flashing red light indicates an abnormality). It works in conjunction with the speaker at the sound outlet of the front shell 101 to provide local prompts (such as low battery alarm and abnormal unlocking alarm).

The key contains a timestamp and a unique device identifier and is sent to the user terminal via WiFi. After the key is verified by the front locking motherboard (103), it can only trigger the unlocking action once. It will automatically expire and clear the local record.

The delay time of the automatic control module can be adjusted (0-10 seconds) by the front button (104) or the user terminal APP, and supports "Do Not Disturb Mode" (automatic locking is turned off from 10 pm to 6 am the next day). When abnormal extension and retraction of the lock tongue is detected (such as the displacement sensor 404 detecting that the target position is not reached within 10 seconds), the front locking motherboard (103) drives the motor (307) to reverse and reset, and pushes a "lock tongue stuck" alarm to the user terminal at the same time.

10. A method for remotely unlocking and monitoring the open / closed status of a smart door lock according to claim 9, characterized in that: Includes the following steps: Step 1: Real-time Status Monitoring and Judgment The status monitoring component continuously collects and integrates data: the displacement sensor detects the extension and retraction distance of the bolt at the end of the lock body (extending ≥15mm is determined as "locked", retracting ≤2mm is determined as "unlocked"), and the angle sensor of the bolt drive position synchronously verifies the bolt status; The magnet on the door frame works with the latch guide block to trigger the Hall sensor when the door is closed (with a gap of ≤5mm) and output a "door closed" signal. The signal disappears when the door is opened, indicating that the door is open. The front locking main board integrates the above data to generate three types of status information: "door closed, locked", "door closed, unlocked" and "door open", which are then transmitted to the rear locking main board via wires. Step Two: Initiating and Transmitting Remote Unlock Commands Users initiate a remote unlocking request through the terminal APP, and verify their identity by entering the management password or biometrics (such as fingerprint); After successful verification, the APP generates an unlocking command with a timestamp, which is encrypted using the AES-256 algorithm and transmitted to the WiFi module of the rear lock motherboard via mobile network or WiFi. Step 3: Remote unlocking command execution and status feedback: After the front locking motherboard verifies the validity of the command, it drives the motor of the rear locking component to rotate forward; The motor drives the drive block through the main gear and auxiliary gear of the drive module, which drives the knob and the shaft to rotate, and the lock tongue retracts to the unlocked state of ≤2mm. After the displacement sensor detects the "unlocked" state, it sends feedback to the front lock mainboard via the rear lock mainboard, and then pushes it to the user terminal APP, displaying "unlocked successfully"; at the same time, the display module synchronously displays the status, and the speaker emits a prompt tone; When the smart lock is unlocked locally (indoor unlocking, fingerprint or password or card unlocking from outside), the unlocking information will be sent to the administrator's mobile phone via Wi-Fi to monitor the unlocking status in real time. Step 4: Automatic Locking Triggering and Execution: When the current lock mainboard determines the status as "door closed but not locked" (door closed and bolt not extended), the automatic control module will start with an adjustable delay of 0-10 seconds (default 3 seconds, which can be set via the front button or APP). If the status monitoring component detects "door open" (magnetic sensing disappears) during the delay period, automatic locking will be immediately suspended; When the delay ends and the door remains closed, the front lock mainboard drive motor reverses, driving the bolt to extend to ≥15mm (locked state) through the drive module, and pushes the "automatic locking successful" status to the APP; Step 5: Temporary Permission Request and Usage: Users can apply for temporary unlocking permission from the rear lock motherboard through the terminal APP and set the time limit (1 minute to 24 hours). The rear lock motherboard generates a temporary key containing a timestamp and a unique device identifier, and sends it to the user terminal via WiFi; Visitors enter a temporary key via the front button. After the front lock motherboard verifies the key, it triggers a single unlock (the process is the same as step 3). The key will automatically become invalid and clear the local record after it expires. Step Six: Exception Handling and Local Prompts: If the displacement sensor detects that the bolt has not reached the target position within 10 seconds (stuck), the front lock mainboard drive motor will reverse and reset, and at the same time push a "bolt stuck" alarm to the APP; The three-color LED indicator on the rear lock motherboard provides feedback on the system status through the lighting mode (a solid green light indicates normal locking, a flashing yellow light indicates unlocking, and a flashing red light indicates an abnormality), which, together with the speaker in the front shell sound outlet, provides local prompts (such as low battery alarm and abnormal unlocking alarm).
