For example, if the first, second, etc. terms are used to denote names, they do not mean any particular order.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, an elevator key device 100 is provided, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the device includes an elevator unlocking device 120, an identity recognition device 140, and a control device 160. The identity recognition device 140 is used to obtain user identity information, and to verify identity through communication interaction with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 according to the user identity information. The identity recognition device 140 is also used to determine a control mode after successful identity verification, the control mode including one of a maintenance mode, a rescue mode, and an emergency use mode. The identity recognition device 140 is also used to send a control signal carrying the control mode to the control device 160, and the control device 160 is used to drive the elevator unlocking device 120 to perform unlocking of a target elevator according to the corresponding control mode according to the control signal.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the elevator unlocking device 120 is a component that directly performs an elevator door unlocking action, and its core function is to safely and reliably open an elevator door lock hook and assist in opening the door under the drive of the control device 160. The identity recognition device 140 collects biological feature or identity information of an operator through an integrated identity recognition module and communicates with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 to verify whether the operator has operation authority. After successful identity verification, the control mode to be enabled currently is automatically determined according to elevator real-time state information sent by the client 200 or the elevator Internet of Things device 300. The maintenance mode is suitable for daily maintenance under normal stoppage of the elevator, and emphasizes smoothness and standardization of operation. The rescue mode is suitable for a scenario where the elevator is faulty and personnel are trapped, and gives priority to rescue efficiency and safety of trapped personnel. The emergency use mode is suitable for an extreme situation where communication of the client 200 or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 is interrupted, and ensures that the elevator can still be safely operated in an emergency scenario. The core function of the control device 160 is to drive the elevator unlocking device 120 to perform corresponding operation according to the control signal sent by the identity recognition device 140.

[0047] The client 200 generally refers to a terminal device with communication and data processing capabilities. The client 200 can include a handheld terminal, a personal computer, a notebook computer, a smartphone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, a medical device, a VR (Virtual Reality) device, etc. The elevator Internet of Things device 300 generally refers to a device responsible for real-time collection of elevator state, transmission of information, and response to external requests.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity recognition device 140 can interact with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 to verify the identity through communication. Compared with the defect that the traditional elevator key has no identity restriction, this design ensures that only authorized personnel can start the operation, thereby preventing non-professionals from misusing the key to cause safety accidents such as falling and shearing from the source; after successful verification, the identity recognition device 140 determines the control mode according to the real-time state of the elevator, ensures that the unlocking operation is strictly matched with the working condition of the elevator, realizes redundant protection in the fault scene through the emergency use mode, and improves the reliability of the device in complex working conditions, thereby improving the safety, standardization and reliability of the elevator maintenance process, emergency rescue and fault condition.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity recognition device 140 is further configured to perform first identity verification according to the user identity information, and obtain a first identity verification result. The identity recognition device 140 is further configured to, in a case where the first identity verification result is verification success, perform second identity verification with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 according to the user identity information, and obtain a second identity verification result. The identity recognition device 140 is further configured to, in a case where the second identity verification result is verification success, determine the control mode.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity authentication can include fingerprint recognition, password recognition, card recognition, face recognition, iris recognition, and the like. The identity recognition device 140 can perform a first identity authentication according to the user identity information. The first identity authentication generally refers to local identity authentication. In some examples, the identity recognition device 140 first performs local verification on the identity information of the operator. For example, the fingerprint of the operator is collected through a built-in fingerprint recognition module, or the user identity information is read through a radio frequency card recognition module, and then compared with the authorized identity information (such as the registered fingerprint template of the maintenance personnel, the authorized card number) pre-stored locally by the device to generate a first identity authentication result. The first identity authentication result can include a verification success or a verification failure. If the verification fails, the operation attempt of the unauthorized personnel / unqualified personnel is blocked. If the verification succeeds, a second identity authentication is also required. Generally, only when the first identity authentication result is a verification success, the identity recognition device 140 initiates the second identity authentication. The identity recognition device 140 can send the user identity information to the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 through short-distance communication (such as Bluetooth, near field communication, etc.) or remote network communication for the second identity authentication. In some embodiments, the second identity authentication generally refers to remote identity permission authentication. The second identity authentication can be to confirm whether the authorized personnel has the permission for the current operation scenario. For example, the client 200 or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 verifies whether the personnel is assigned to the maintenance task of the target elevator, whether the personnel is within the valid operation period, whether the personnel has the qualification to handle the current elevator state (such as fault rescue), and the like. After verification, the client 200 or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 feeds back a second identity authentication result to the identity recognition device 140. The second identity authentication result can include a verification success or a verification failure. If the verification fails, the operation request of the corresponding operator to the current scenario of the elevator unlocking device 120 can be rejected. When the second identity authentication result is a verification success, the identity recognition device 140 determines the corresponding control mode (such as a maintenance mode, a rescue mode, or an emergency use mode) according to the elevator real-time state information (such as information that the elevator is in a shutdown state, there is a rescue signal, communication is normal, and the like) synchronized by the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300, and sends a control signal carrying the mode parameter to the control device 160, to finally drive the elevator unlocking device 120 to perform an unlocking operation in accordance with the mode.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity authentication can also be divided into a use person application scenario and an elevator on-site use scenario. As shown in FIG. 1B, when a use person applies, a first identity authentication can be performed first, a card information comparison is performed in the library, a label is marked according to the current responsible area, the label information is copied and stored in the elevator key device 100, and the permission is activated after the identity information of the applicant is identified. In some other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1C, when the elevator is used on site, a first identity authentication can be performed first, a card information comparison is performed in the library, a label is marked according to the current responsible area, the label information is copied and stored in the elevator key device 100, and the permission is activated after the identity information of the applicant is identified. Figure 2 Figure 3 ​As shown, there is also an elevator on-site use application scenario, which can determine whether the operation personnel's proficiency meets the standard or obtain the operation personnel's certificate information to confirm the operation personnel's operation ability. At the same time, the identity of the operation personnel is determined, for example, confirming whether the operation personnel's identity information is valid, whether a contract is signed, whether the operation personnel is dispatched by the company to be responsible for the target elevator, whether there is a violation, and the like to confirm whether the operation personnel meets the application conditions. After all the application conditions are met, the operation personnel is allowed to use. It should be noted that the above scenario description is only exemplary and not a practical limitation.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the problem that the traditional single verification is easy to be impersonated and copied can be solved through double verification. The real-time authority of the operation personnel can be dynamically checked through the second verification, so as to realize fine and dynamic management of the authority. In the second verification process, the client 200 or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 synchronizes the real-time state of the elevator, so that the identity recognition device 140 can directly determine the adaptive control mode after the verification is passed, and ensure that the operation personnel can only operate in a specific mode within the authority range, thereby improving the safety and reliability.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity recognition device 140 is further configured to determine that the control mode is an emergency use mode in a case where the first identity verification result is a verification success and it is detected that the communication with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 is disconnected for more than a first preset time.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first preset time usually refers to the maximum time allowed for the elevator key device 100 to be disconnected from the communication with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300. In the process of the second identity verification, if the device detects that the communication connection with the client 200 and the elevator Internet of Things device 300 is interrupted (such as loss of Bluetooth signal or interruption of network signal), and the interruption time exceeds the first preset time (for example, 30 seconds, which can be set according to the actual scene), it can be determined that the control mode is an emergency use mode. If the traditional elevator key device 100 relies on continuous communication verification, once the communication is interrupted, it can not be operated at all, especially in an emergency scene such as elevator failure and people being trapped, which will directly delay the rescue opportunity.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, by setting the first preset time, it can be ensured that even in the case of network or device failure, the authorized personnel (who has passed the first identity verification) can still start the unlocking operation, thereby ensuring the operation feasibility in the emergency scene and avoiding rescue delay.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 4As shown, the elevator unlocking device 120 includes a key body 122, a fixer 124, a turn lock 126, and a booster 128, the fixer 124, the turn lock 126, and the booster 128 are mounted on the key body 122. The fixer 124 is detachably connected with the key body 122, the fixer 124 is used to be fixed to a target elevator after being separated from the key body 122; the turn lock 126 is used to open an elevator lock hook; and the booster 128 is used to provide an initial pushing force to the target elevator after the turn lock 126 is turned.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the fixer 124 can be separated from the body and has a strong adsorption function (can be adsorbed to a door frame, a wall, or an elevator door). The fixer 124 can be used as a support point of an operator, and the fixer 124 can also be used as a door blocking device to prevent the operator from falling accidentally and prevent the elevator door from being closed accidentally. The turn lock 126 is used to open the elevator lock hook. The booster 128 can provide an initial pushing force after the turn lock 126 is actuated, thereby assisting in opening the elevator door and avoiding the operator from falling due to imbalance caused by excessive force when opening the door.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the traditional triangular key has no support and door blocking function, and the operator needs to use one hand to exert force when opening the door, which is easy to cause the operator to fall into the shaft due to imbalance of the reaction force; the elevator door may be closed accidentally, which can cause injury to the personnel. The fixer 124 can be used as a support point of the operator to prevent the operator from falling accidentally, and the fixer 124 can also be used as a door blocking device to avoid the door body from being closed accidentally, which can cause injury or block the rescue channel. The initial pushing force provided by the booster 128 can reduce the opening resistance in a targeted manner, especially in a rescue mode, the opening speed can be accelerated by increasing the pushing force, and the risk of the operator leaning forward due to excessive force can be avoided. The elevator unlocking device 120 adopts the structure of the fixer 124, the turn lock 126, and the booster 128, which not only retains the portability of the traditional key, but also compensates for the safety defects by combining mechanical and electrical control, thereby significantly improving the safety, efficiency, and scene adaptability of the elevator door opening process.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 5 The elevator key device 100 further includes a voice device 170 and a storage device 180. The voice device 170 is used to play a first prompt voice, a second prompt voice, and a third prompt voice before, during, and after use of the elevator key device 100, respectively. The storage device 180 is used to store at least one of the use information of the elevator key device 100, the corresponding user identity information, the first prompt voice, the second prompt voice, and the third prompt voice.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first prompt voice generally refers to the prompt voice before the use of the elevator key device 100; the second prompt voice generally refers to the prompt voice during the use of the elevator key device 100; and the third prompt voice generally refers to the prompt voice after the use of the elevator key device 100. In some embodiments, when the operator starts the key device and passes the identity verification, the voice device 170 can automatically play the first prompt voice as a safety preparation guide. In some examples, for example, “Please confirm that the holder 124 has been separated and adsorbed near the elevator door, and one hand holds the holder 124, please do not close to the elevator door leaf”. Its role is to remind the operator to complete the safety preparation action (such as holder 124 installation, body posture adjustment), to avoid the risk of falling due to insufficient preparation. During the process of driving the elevator unlocking device 120 to perform the unlocking action by the control device 160, the voice device 170 plays the second prompt voice in real time to remind the operation specification. For example, “The elevator door is opening, please do not put your body into the shaft, operate slowly and observe the position of the car”. Its role is to constrain the action of the operator in real time, to prevent the risk of body imbalance, mis-touch, etc. due to impatience or negligence. After the elevator door is completely opened and the operation is completed, the voice device 170 plays the third prompt voice, which can be used as a finishing reminder. For example, “Please confirm that the elevator is in normal state, reset the holder 124 and check that the key device is connected in place, and the operation record has been stored”. Its role is to urge the operator to complete the device reset and state check, to avoid the elevator door accidentally closing or the key device being damaged due to missing steps.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the storage device 180 generally refers to a memory module integrated in the control device 160. The storage device 180 can record the use information of the elevator key device 100, the corresponding user identity information and the prompt voice data. The storage device 180 can be used to trace the operation record and the user identity information of the operator. The use information and the user identity information recorded by the storage device 180 can solve the problem that the traditional key has no operation record and the responsibility cannot be traced after an accident. The storage device 180 can also support offline storage, that is, even if the communication with the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 is disconnected, local recording can still be performed, to avoid problems such as data loss caused by communication interruption due to implementation uploading. After the communication is restored, the data can be automatically synchronized to the client 200, to ensure that there is no omission in the whole process record, and to provide complete data support for elevator safety management. In some examples, in the emergency use mode, the storage device 180 can record the operator identity information and the use information when the communication is interrupted, and automatically synchronize after the communication is restored, to ensure that even in an emergency scene, the operation responsibility can still be traced. Compared with the defect that the traditional emergency operation has no record and it is difficult to trace the responsibility, this design provides data support for post-management and responsibility identification.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity of the client 200 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 can be verified through communication interaction of the identity recognition device 140, compared with the defect of no identity limitation of the traditional elevator key, the design ensures that only authorized personnel can start the operation, and prevents non-professional personnel from misusing the key to cause safety accidents such as falling and shearing from the source; after the identity recognition device 140 verifies successfully, the control mode is determined according to the real-time state of the elevator, ensuring that the unlocking operation is strictly matched with the working condition of the elevator, realizing redundant protection in the fault scene through the emergency use mode, and improving the reliability of the device in complex working conditions, thereby improving the safety, standardization and reliability of the elevator maintenance process, emergency rescue and fault condition.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 6 The client 200 provided in some embodiments of the present disclosure includes a first communication module 220, an identity verification module 240 and a processing module 260. The first communication module 220 is configured to receive state information of a target elevator sent by the elevator Internet of Things device 300, and is also configured to receive user identity information sent by the elevator Internet of Things device 300 and / or the elevator key device 100. The identity verification module 240 is configured to verify the identity according to the user identity information. The processing module 260 is configured to generate a corresponding control instruction according to the state information after the identity verification is successful, the control instruction including a control mode, and the control mode including one of a maintenance mode, a rescue mode and an emergency use mode. The first communication module 220 is also configured to send the control instruction to the elevator key device 100.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the client 200 generally refers to a terminal device with communication and data processing capabilities. The client 200 can include a handheld terminal, a personal computer, a notebook computer, a smart phone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, a medical device, a VR (Virtual Reality) device, etc.

[0065] The client 200 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, as a core interaction node connecting the elevator Internet of Things device 300 and the elevator key device 100, realizes precise control and collaborative management of the elevator key device 100 by integrating communication, identity verification and instruction generation functions. The client 200 can receive real-time state information of a target elevator and user identity information sent by the elevator Internet of Things device 300 through a remote network or short-distance communication. The real-time state information of the target elevator can include elevator position information, running state information, fault information, whether there is a help signal, etc. The received user identity information can be checked for permission by the identity verification module 240. In some examples, as shown in Figure 7As shown, the authorized personnel information library stored locally or synchronized in the cloud can be called, and the received user identity information can be compared with the information library to verify whether the personnel has the right to operate the target elevator, and output the identity verification result to the processing module 260. The processing module 260 can generate control instructions based on the state information received by the first communication module 220 and the result of the identity verification module 240. If the identity verification fails, the instruction with the prohibition of operation can be returned to the elevator key device 100. If the identity verification is successful, the corresponding control mode is matched according to the state information sent by the elevator Internet of Things device 300.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity can be verified by the client 200 communicating with the elevator key device 100 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300. Compared with the defect that the traditional elevator key has no identity limit, this design ensures that only authorized personnel can start the operation, thereby preventing non-professional personnel from misusing the key to cause safety accidents such as falling and shearing; after successful verification, the control mode is determined according to the real-time state of the elevator, ensuring that the unlocking operation is strictly matched with the working condition of the elevator, realizing redundant protection in the fault scene through the emergency use mode, and improving the reliability of the device in complex working conditions, thereby improving the safety, standardization and reliability of the elevator maintenance process, emergency rescue and fault conditions.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the state information includes at least one of elevator stop information and help information, and the processing module 260 is further configured to, after successful identity verification, determine the control mode to be a rescue mode according to the elevator stop information and the help information if the help information is received. The processing module 260 is further configured to, after successful identity verification, determine the control mode to be a maintenance mode according to the elevator stop information if the help information is not received.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, if the elevator stops and there is no help signal, the control mode can be determined to be a maintenance mode. If the elevator stops and there is a help signal, the control mode can be determined to be a rescue mode. In some examples, if the control mode is determined to be a maintenance mode, the electric rotary lock 126 and the low-thrust booster 128 can be started; if the control mode is determined to be a rescue mode, the electric rotary lock 126 (switched to manual when the power is insufficient) and the high-thrust booster 128 can be started. Through the adoption of such a technical solution, in the maintenance mode, only low-intensity unlocking actions are allowed when the elevator stops, thereby avoiding the risk of elevator misstart during maintenance; in the rescue mode, the help signal is preferentially responded, and the unlocking device is driven to act in an efficient mode, which can shorten the waiting time of the trapped personnel and can improve the adaptability to the scene.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the processing module 260 is further configured to determine, after the identity verification is successful, that the control mode is the emergency use mode according to the elevator stoppage information in a case where it is detected that the elevator key device 100 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 is disconnected from communication for more than a second preset time.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second preset time generally refers to the maximum time allowed for the client 200 to be disconnected from communication with the elevator key device 100 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300. The second preset time can be the same as or different from the first preset time. In the process of identity verification, if the client 200 detects that the communication connection with the elevator key device 100 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300 is interrupted (such as loss of Bluetooth signal or interruption of network signal), and the interruption lasts for more than the second preset time (for example, 40 seconds, which can be set according to the actual scene), it can be determined that the control mode is the emergency use mode. If the traditional elevator key device 100 relies on continuous communication verification, once the communication is interrupted, it can result in complete inability to operate, especially in emergency scenarios such as elevator failure trapping, which will directly delay the rescue opportunity.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, by setting the second preset time, it can be ensured that even in the case of network or device failure, authorized personnel (who have passed the first identity verification) can still initiate the unlocking operation, thereby ensuring the operability in emergency scenarios and avoiding rescue delays.

[0072] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the identity can be verified through communication interaction between the client 200 and the elevator key device 100 and / or the elevator Internet of Things device 300. Compared with the defect of no identity limitation in the traditional elevator key, this design ensures that only authorized personnel can initiate the operation, thereby preventing non-professional personnel from misusing the key to cause safety accidents such as falling and shearing; after the verification is successful, the control mode is determined according to the real-time state of the elevator, so as to ensure that the unlocking operation is strictly matched with the working condition of the elevator, the redundant guarantee in the failure scenario is realized through the emergency use mode, and the reliability of the device in complex working conditions is improved, thereby improving the safety, standardization and reliability in the elevator maintenance process, emergency rescue and failure conditions.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the information collection module 320 is configured to collect state information of a target elevator, and the second communication module 340 is configured to send the state information to the client 200, so that the client 200 generates corresponding control instructions according to the state information after the identity verification is successful, and the control instructions include a control mode, and the control mode includes one of a maintenance mode, a rescue mode and an emergency use mode.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the elevator Internet of Things device 300 generally refers to a device responsible for collecting elevator status in real time, transmitting information, and responding to external requests. The identity can be verified through communication interaction between the elevator Internet of Things device 300 and the client 200 and / or the elevator key device 100, so that the client 200 generates corresponding control instructions according to the status information after the identity verification is successful. The control mode is determined according to the real-time status of the elevator, ensuring that the unlocking operation strictly matches the working condition of the elevator, realizing redundant protection in the fault scene through the emergency use mode, and improving the reliability of the device in complex working conditions, thereby improving the safety, standardization and reliability of the elevator maintenance process, emergency rescue and fault conditions.
