Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of eco-intelligent building technology, and in particular to an eco-intelligent building suitable for low-altitude aircraft and vehicle vertical transportation systems. Background Technology

[0002] Current architectural space systems, especially high-rise residential buildings and villas, have significant limitations in meeting the demands of modern urban development and future technological evolution. On the one hand, high-rise buildings generally adopt a standardized unit stacking model. Although this results in high land utilization, each unit lacks independence and spatial hierarchy, leading to a severe shortage of green space per capita. Furthermore, the limited sound insulation of floors and walls makes it easy for noise pollution to occur between neighbors, compromising living quality and privacy. On the other hand, while villas and townhouses offer a superior living experience and independent courtyard spaces, their large land area and low plot ratio result in inefficient land resource utilization, making them unsuitable for the demands of high-density urban development.

[0003] Furthermore, with the rise of the low-altitude economy, the application of low-altitude aircraft such as manned flying cars and logistics drones has become an important direction for future urban transportation. However, existing buildings did not fully consider the take-off and landing needs of such aircraft in their initial design, lacking supporting receiving facilities, dedicated take-off and landing platforms, and connected vertical transportation systems. This makes it impossible to support "airborne" parking and material delivery functions, and it is difficult to meet the integrated development requirements of building space and low-altitude transportation systems in the context of smart cities. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention aims to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an eco-smart building suitable for low-altitude aircraft and vehicle vertical transportation systems. It can replicate the spatial experience of a villa under high-density development conditions, integrate vertical greening and ecological technologies, and has future adaptability to adapt to the take-off and landing of low-altitude aircraft and smart transportation interfaces, thereby truly achieving the unity of intensive land use, improved living quality and low-carbon smart goals.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An eco-friendly smart building suitable for low-altitude aircraft and vehicle vertical transportation systems includes a longitudinal architectural space system, vertical and low-altitude transportation, rooftop gardens and an ecosystem, and an intelligent management and control system. It adopts a vertical stacking model of villa units to form a multi-level, complete, and independent family living space, replicating the longitudinal architectural space system of ground-level villas. The overall architectural design features staggered terraces and cantilevered structures. A dual-channel independent public transportation system serves the entrance floors of each villa unit. This system includes vertical transport elevators and vertical logistics shafts. The vertical transport elevators enable air-level parking, while the vertical logistics shafts directly connect to the villa unit's indoor intelligent receiving compartment. Each villa unit's terrace has a standardized area reserved as a take-off and landing point for micro-drones. A centralized roadside access point is provided for the dual-channel public transportation system. The system incorporates a low-altitude aircraft take-off and landing platform, a sky garden, and a park-like public activity space for each villa unit within the ecosystem, simulating a courtyard house. An intelligent management and control system provides each villa unit with an independent in-house intelligent hub. Through unified hardware integration and communication protocol conversion, a centralized software platform and data fusion, cloud collaboration, and artificial intelligence, it achieves continuous optimization and value enhancement of functions. This manages the villa unit's logistics reception, environmental regulation, security, and garden irrigation. A vertical building space system incorporates an AI platform, achieving full-domain perception through IoT technology. Data fusion and visualization are achieved using digital twins, and intelligent decisions are made based on core AI algorithms. Ultimately, a unified control bus drives various subsystems to execute commands, forming an intelligent closed loop of perception-decision-control. Equipped with signal sensors and feedback devices, it is responsible for public resource scheduling, low-altitude traffic control, and building security monitoring. Through a two-tiered architecture of "in-house intelligent hub" and "vertical AI platform," combined with a network of "signal sensors and feedback devices" covering the entire area, intelligent management from unit to whole is achieved, resulting in a "layered autonomy, cloud collaboration" intelligent building management system.

[0007] Each villa unit features a private 360° rooftop garden, a rooftop swimming pool, personalized plantings, and an outdoor dining area.

[0008] The landing point for the micro-drone is equipped with a safety locking and guidance device.

[0009] The vertical transport elevator is a special-purpose heavy-duty elevator. It is driven by traction or hydraulic systems, has an extra-long car and a high load capacity of 3-6 tons, and can carry vehicles into various villa units.

[0010] The aforementioned vertical building space system adopts passive building design to achieve zero-carbon living and working spaces.

[0011] The aforementioned vertical building space system uses lightweight, high-strength planting soil that meets the needs of healthy plant growth while minimizing weight and maintaining a stable physical structure. Commonly used types for home gardening and lightweight greening include coconut coir + perlite + compost / well-rotted organic fertilizer. This soil provides initial nutrients and fertilizer retention capacity by adding organic matter, while maintaining a lightweight and structurally stable structure. The system also includes an automatic drip irrigation system and a micro-rainwater collection system, including drainage ditches, filters, and water tanks, to achieve sustainable greening of the rooftop garden.

[0012] The centralized low-altitude aircraft take-off and landing platform is used for the take-off and landing operations of manned flying cars and logistics drones.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are: through the vertical stacking design of villa units, this invention replicates the longitudinal spatial experience and neighborhood interaction mode of ground courtyard under the premise of high plot ratio, solves the problem of low living quality that is common in traditional high-rise residential buildings, and constructs a smart and ecological building space facing the future.

[0018] I. Overall Architecture and Spatial Layout:

[0019] 1) Architectural Structural Design: The traditional 1-2 story residential or office spaces with separate entrances and courtyards are vertically stacked, using a frame-shear wall structure or steel structure system to meet the structural strength and stability requirements of large-span cantilevered and staggered terraces. The overall building height is significantly increased compared to traditional residences, with a standard floor height of no less than 4.5 meters and some open areas reaching heights of over 7 meters, to replicate the spatial scale of villas and provide clearance for low-altitude aircraft take-off and landing.

[0020] 2) Vertical stacking of villa units: Each villa unit is designed as a vertical unit spanning 2-3 floors. Each unit has an independent entrance floor (usually the middle floor), garden floor (upper floor) and living floor, which are connected by an internal staircase to form a complete vertical family space.

[0021] 3) Terrace and Cantilever Design: A staggered terrace design is adopted, with part of the upper unit's area serving as the terrace roof for the lower unit. This ensures that each household enjoys a large private terrace (no less than 40% of the indoor area) while avoiding visual obstruction. The cantilever structure uses a prestressed or diagonally braced design, with a cantilever length of 4–6 meters.

[0022] 4) Courtyard-style public space: Shared rooftop gardens are set up between several units (e.g., 4-6 households). The rooftop gardens are planted with trees, and leisure seats and children's activity facilities are set up to form a core for neighborhood interaction, simulating the "courtyard alley" space feeling of traditional courtyard houses.

[0023] II. Interface between Vertical Transportation and Low-Altitude Transportation:

[0024] 1) Dual-lane independent transportation system:

[0025] Vertical transport elevator: A large vertical elevator (car elevator) is installed, with a car size of no less than 5.5m (length) × 2.8m (width) × 3.2m (height) and a load capacity of no less than 5000kg, capable of accommodating ordinary family cars and small logistics vehicles. The elevator provides direct access to the private parking and entrance hall of each villa unit.

[0026] Vertical logistics shaft: A set of high-speed elevators (speed not less than 2.5m / s) and safety staircases are independently installed to serve personnel passage and daily logistics. The vertical logistics shaft is directly connected to the smart receiving compartments of each household.

[0027] 2) Intelligent Receiving Compartment System: Each household is equipped with an independent intelligent receiving compartment. The compartment is insulated with polyurethane. If active temperature control is required, semiconductor cooling / heating elements and temperature sensors can be integrated. The compartment uses an electronically controlled lock and is equipped with a door magnetic sensor and vibration sensor for anti-theft functionality, real-time monitoring, and alarm functions. For user convenience and courier delivery, an ESP32 microcontroller is used as the core, managing the equipment, generating / verifying opening credentials, and recording all operation logs through a cloud platform. Couriers use an app to obtain a one-time dynamic QR code for scanning to open the compartment. Users can use an IC card or their mobile phone's NFC function for near-field unlocking, or remotely unlock manually via the app, set the temperature, and receive delivery and alarm notifications. The compartment provides insulation, anti-theft, and identification (such as QR code or RFID) functions. Furthermore, the compartment connects to a vertical logistics channel via conveyor belt or robot, enabling direct delivery of packages to the household. It also allows for completely private and secure delivery of goods by drone.

[0028] 3) Low-altitude aircraft take-off and landing facilities:

[0029] Centralized low-altitude aircraft take-off and landing platform: Located on the roof of a building podium or a specific equipment floor, the platform size is designed according to the model of the take-off and landing aircraft (e.g., it can park 2-4 manned flying cars), and is equipped with charging piles, safety fences, lighting guidance systems, and signal sensing and feedback devices connected to a central AI platform.

[0030] Household drone take-off and landing point: In the standardized area of ​​the terrace of each unit, measuring 2m×2m, high-temperature resistant and anti-slip material is laid, and mechanical locking devices are installed to prevent drone slippage, visual guidance lights such as LED indicator arrays and wireless communication base stations are used for the take-off and landing of micro logistics drones and precise delivery.

[0031] III. Sky Gardens and Ecosystems

[0032] 1) 360° Sky Garden: Each unit features a garden surrounding the apartment, using lightweight, high-strength planting materials with a bulk density not exceeding 800 kg / m³. The soil thickness is determined based on the plant type: ≥0.3m for lawn areas, ≥0.6m for shrub areas, and ≥1.2m for tree planting beds. The green area accounts for no less than 70% of the terrace area.

[0033] 2) Water Resource Recycling System: A micro-rainwater collection device is installed, including a collection ditch, filter screen, and water storage tank. The collected rainwater is used for garden drip irrigation after simple filtration. The drip irrigation system is centrally controlled by an in-house smart hub. Soil moisture sensors in the garden monitor root zone moisture data in real time and transmit it wirelessly to the hub. The hub has a built-in irrigation strategy model that integrates soil moisture data with weather forecast information from the internet (such as rainfall and evaporation). Irrigation commands are only triggered when the system predicts that the soil will soon be short of water and there will be no effective rainfall. The hub sends start and stop commands to smart solenoid valves connected to the water supply pipeline via wireless networks (such as LoRaWAN, Zigbee, or 4G / 5G) to achieve remote automatic opening and closing of the valves, thereby completing precise and water-saving irrigation operations.

[0034] 3) Passive building technology: High-performance insulation materials such as graphite polystyrene board, rock wool / mineral wool and other high-performance insulation materials are used for the building's exterior walls and roof. The thermal conductivity is ≤0.03W / (m·K). The exterior windows use triple-glazed double-cavity Low-E glass with a heat transfer coefficient K value ≤0.8W / (m²·K). Combined with building shading and a high-efficiency fresh air heat recovery system, the building's heating and cooling energy consumption is significantly reduced, striving to achieve near-zero energy consumption.

[0035] IV. Intelligent Management and Control System

[0036] 1) In-home Smart Hub: Each household is equipped with a smart control host. The core hardware of the in-home smart hub is an embedded host based on the ARM architecture, integrating a multi-protocol communication gateway (supporting Zigbee / Bluetooth / Thread / Wi-Fi 6, etc.), industrial bus interfaces (such as RS-485 / KNX), and an edge AI acceleration module (such as Coral TPU). The software system runs on a customized Linux or RTOS, uniformly accessing and converting various protocols (such as MQTT, CoAP) through IoT middleware, and using time-series databases and relational databases to integrate and store device and behavioral data. Cloud collaboration adopts a microservice architecture, achieving data synchronization, disaster recovery, and task collaboration between the edge and the cloud through bidirectional communication and secure authentication—real-time AI inference is executed locally, while complex analysis and model training are completed in the cloud. Artificial intelligence is deployed in three layers: lightweight models (such as TensorFlow Lite) run on the device side; scene adaptive optimization is achieved on the edge side through containers; and deep reinforcement learning and federated learning are performed in the cloud based on PyTorch, etc., and the optimized model is delivered to the terminal via secure OTA. All software modules are deployed containerized via a CI / CD pipeline, and the firmware has an integrity verification mechanism. Through unified hardware integration and communication protocol conversion, centralized software platform and data fusion, cloud collaboration, and artificial intelligence, continuous optimization and value enhancement are achieved, integrating the following functions:

[0037] Logistics Management: Receive and notify express delivery information, and control the opening and closing of intelligent receiving compartments and the temporary storage environment for goods.

[0038] Environmental control: It links the air conditioner, fresh air system, and sunshade curtains, and automatically adjusts the indoor temperature, humidity, CO2 concentration, and residents' habits.

[0039] Security monitoring: Connects to door access control, cameras, and smoke sensors, and alerts homeowners and property management in case of abnormal situations.

[0040] Garden irrigation: Control the drip irrigation solenoid valve to start irrigation on a timed or as-needed basis.

[0041] 2) Central AI Platform: The AI ​​platform and the entire vertical building space system are equipped with a high-precision 3D digital twin model built with Bentley iTwin as the core for visualization and data mapping throughout the park. It adopts a two-tier architecture of "indoor intelligent hub" (unit autonomy) and "vertical AI platform" (cloud collaboration), combined with a comprehensive sensing network to achieve hierarchical management and global optimization; "full-area perception" is achieved through IoT sensors, drone platforms, and AI cameras; data is aggregated and analyzed in the cloud (Huawei Cloud IoT / Big Data Platform), and "intelligent decision-making" is performed using AI algorithms; finally, "instructions" are executed through a unified control bus such as building automation, forming an intelligent closed loop of perception-decision-control, responsible for:

[0042] Low-altitude traffic control: It interfaces with the city's aviation management system and uses signal sensors on building surfaces (such as millimeter-wave radar and visual cameras) to monitor the low-altitude airspace status around buildings in real time, providing guidance and safety obstacle avoidance information for aircraft taking off and landing.

[0043] Public resource scheduling: Optimize elevator operation strategies, adjust public area lighting, and monitor energy consumption and water resource data.

[0044] Building security monitoring: Integrates video surveillance, fire alarms, and access control records, conducts big data analysis, and provides early warnings of potential security risks.
