Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of lighting equipment, and in particular to a lamp system. Background Art
[0002] In modern home and office environments, lighting systems play a vital role. Not only does it provide the necessary light to support visual tasks such as reading, writing and other fine work, it also affects the user's mood and work efficiency. Traditional lighting solutions usually include independent lighting devices such as table lamps and ceiling lamps, which operate independently and cannot form a system that works together.
[0003] Desk lamps are lighting devices designed for reading and writing activities. They are usually placed on desks or workbenches to provide users with concentrated light to reduce eye fatigue and improve concentration. However, desk lamps are usually controlled individually and cannot be intelligently linked with other lighting devices in the room (such as ceiling lamps). This separate control method limits the user's ability to flexibly adjust the ratio of local lighting to global lighting according to different scene requirements.
[0004] For example, when studying or working, users may need stronger local lighting to ensure that enough light covers the work area, while keeping the light in other parts of the room soft to avoid distraction and fatigue. When resting or entertaining, a more uniform and relaxing lighting environment may be needed. Since current lighting equipment cannot achieve this dynamic coordination, users have to manually adjust each lighting device, which is not only inconvenient, but also difficult to achieve the ideal lighting effect. Utility Model Content

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of a lamp system provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0030] The lighting system 10 includes: a control-end lighting device 20 and a controlled-end lighting device 30, which are interconnected via respective wireless communication modules to achieve remote control and intelligent adjustment functions.
[0031] The control-end lighting device 20 refers to a device with which a user directly interacts. The control-end lighting device 20 may be a local lighting device, which refers to a device that provides lighting for a specific work area or activity. For example, the control-end lighting device 20 includes a desk lamp or a floor lamp. The control-end lighting device 20 includes a first wireless communication module 21, which is responsible for sending and receiving control signals. The control-end lighting device 20 may have a user interface, such as an operation button, a knob, a touch screen, or a voice control interface, allowing a user to input control instructions.
[0032] The controlled-end lighting device 30 refers to a lighting device that is remotely controlled by the controlling-end lighting device 20. The controlled-end lighting device 30 may be a local lighting device or a global lighting device. The global lighting device refers to a lighting device used to provide uniform light coverage for the entire area or room. Global lighting devices are usually installed on the top of the room, such as on the ceiling, or illuminated from above using a suspension system to ensure that the light can be evenly distributed throughout the space. The controlled-end lighting device 30 may be a ceiling lamp or other lighting device. For example, the controlled-end lighting device 30 includes any one of a ceiling lamp, a chandelier, a wall lamp, a spotlight, a light strip lamp, and a track lamp. The controlled-end lighting device 30 includes a second wireless communication module 31, and the first wireless communication module 21 is connected to the second wireless communication module 31. The second wireless communication module 31 is used to receive control signals from the controlling-end lighting device 20, and adjust parameters such as the brightness and color temperature of the light according to these control signals.
[0033] In the lamp system 10, the first wireless communication module 21 and the second wireless communication module 31 can both be point-to-point direct wireless communication modules. This design means that wireless connections can be established directly between wireless communication modules without going through a central controller or network transfer, that is, without the intervention of third-party devices. Users do not need complex network settings, they only need to pair the two lighting devices to start using, which greatly simplifies the installation and configuration process. Since communication is carried out directly, data is not transmitted through an external server, which helps to protect user privacy. In addition, direct connection reduces the number of hops for data transmission, thereby reducing communication delays and allowing control signals to be transmitted faster.
[0034] The point-to-point direct connection between the first wireless communication module 21 and the second wireless communication module 31 can be achieved through a variety of wireless technologies, such as: Bluetooth, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), ZigBee or Z-Wave and other wireless communication technologies, which can ensure stable connection and efficient data transmission between lighting devices.
[0035] The control signal is generated by the control-end lighting device 20, which can be a simple switch command or a complex scene setting, such as "learning mode", "organizing mode", "relaxation mode", etc. These signals are encoded and sent to the second wireless communication module 31 of the controlled-end lighting device 30 through the first wireless communication module 21. When the control-end lighting device 20 sends a control signal, the controlled-end lighting device 30 responds to the control signal and jointly adjusts its light output characteristics. This means that users can control multiple lighting devices at the same time to create a coordinated lighting environment.
[0036] In the design of the lamp system 10, the distribution and number of the control-end lighting devices 20 and the controlled-end lighting devices 30 provide flexibility to adapt to different application scenarios and user needs.
[0037] The control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 can be distributed in the same physical space or different physical spaces: 1. The same physical space: The control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 can be distributed in the same physical space, such as a room or area. This configuration makes the control signal stronger and the response time faster because the distance between the wireless communication modules is shorter. 2. Different physical spaces: The control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 can also be located in different physical spaces. For example, a central control-end lighting device 20 may be located in the living room, while the controlled-end lighting devices 30 are distributed in other rooms of the house. This configuration supports a wider range of lighting control, although stronger wireless signal coverage may be required.
[0038] There is no limit on the number of control-end lighting devices 20 and controlled-end lighting devices 30. 1. Single control end to multiple controlled ends: One control-end lighting device 20 can control multiple controlled-end lighting devices 30, which allows users to manage the entire lighting system from a central point. For example, one control-end lighting device 20 can adjust the controlled-end lighting devices 30 in the living room, dining room, and bedroom at the same time. 2. Multiple control ends to multiple controlled ends: It can also support multiple control-end lighting devices 20 to control multiple controlled-end lighting devices 30, which provides the possibility for large facilities or multi-area control. The design without quantity restrictions allows users to expand the system according to actual needs and add more control ends or controlled-end lighting devices. This flexibility allows the lighting system to be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0039] After the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are wirelessly connected (matched), the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 can be jointly controlled through the control input module. That is, the lighting system 10 further includes a control input module, which is connected to the first wireless communication module 21; or, the control input module is connected to the processing module of the control-end lighting device 20, and the processing module is connected to the first wireless communication module 21.
[0040] The control input module can be an operation control integrated on the control end lighting device 20, or an independent controller. The following introduces two main design methods of the control input module:
[0041] 1. The control input module can be an operation control integrated on the control-end lighting device 20, allowing the user to operate directly on the control-end lighting device 20, such as an operation control including an operation button or a knob. The operation control is usually integrated with other user interface elements of the control-end lighting device 20 (such as a display screen or a touch panel) to provide an intuitive operation experience. Since the control is integrated on the lighting device, the user can directly access and operate it at any time without the need for additional equipment. The integrated control is usually designed to be simple and easy to use, suitable for users of all ages.
[0042] 2. The control input module can be a controller independent of the control-end lighting device. For example, the controller includes a separate remote control, providing a remote operation solution. The controller communicates with the control-end lighting device wirelessly. Users can control lighting anywhere in the home, which is particularly useful in large homes or multi-room environments. Independent controllers usually have more functions and customization options to meet more complex user needs.
[0043] In a possible implementation, taking the control input module as an operation control integrated on the control end lighting device 20 as an example, the operation control may include one or more of a linkage switch control, a linkage timing control, a wireless communication pairing control, and a plurality of scene mode controls. Among them, the linkage switch control is used to switch the control end lighting device 20 and the controlled end lighting device 30 at the same time. The linkage timing control is used to time the control end lighting device 20 and the controlled end lighting device 30 at the same time. The wireless communication pairing control is used to start and establish a wireless connection between the control end lighting device 20 and the controlled end lighting device 30. In addition, the design of the control input module supports scene control, which is an intelligent lighting management method that can adjust the lighting environment according to different activities and needs. Each scene mode control in the plurality of scene mode controls corresponds to a preset scene mode, such as "learning mode", "arranging mode", "relaxation mode", etc. The learning mode can also be called a reading and writing mode, and the relaxation mode can also be called a rest mode or a night light mode, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure. At this time, the control end lighting device 20 and the controlled end lighting device 30 are jointly adjusted to a suitable light output characteristic, so that the lighting of the entire space achieves a better effect. The controlled lighting device 30 can be adjusted in terms of light color and brightness (including turning off the light). Optionally, when the user selects a specific scene mode, the control end lighting device 20 sends a control instruction to the controlled end lighting device 30. The control end lighting device 20 and the controlled end lighting device 30 work together according to the preset configuration and automatically adjust to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the scene mode. Please refer to Figure 2 , which shows a schematic diagram of operating controls on a control-end lighting device 20 provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0044] The operating controls on the control end lighting device 20 include one or more of a dimming button, a brightening button, multiple scene mode controls (learning mode button, tidying mode button, relaxation mode button), a switch button, a seat sensing button, an automatic dimming button, and a timing button.
[0045] 1. Dim button: This button is used to reduce the brightness of the control end lighting device 20. After being pressed, the light of the control end lighting device 20 becomes dim.
[0046] 2. Brighten button: In contrast to the dim button, this button is used to increase the brightness of the control-end lighting device 20. When pressed, the light of the control-end lighting device 20 becomes brighter. The dim button and the bright button can be combined as a linkage switch control. When the dim button and the bright button are pressed for a preset time (e.g., 2s) at the same time, the lights of the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are turned on or off at the same time.
[0047] 3. Learning mode button: When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are not connected, this button is used to adjust the light of the control-end lighting device 20 to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the learning mode. When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are wirelessly connected, this button is used to jointly adjust the lights of the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the learning mode.
[0048] 4. Arrangement mode button: When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are not connected, this button is used to adjust the light of the control-end lighting device 20 to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the arrangement mode. When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are wirelessly connected, this button is used to jointly adjust the light of the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the arrangement mode.
[0049] 5. Relaxation mode button: When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are not connected, this button is used to adjust the light of the control-end lighting device 20 to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the relaxation mode. When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are wirelessly connected, this button is used to jointly adjust the light of the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 to the brightness and color temperature corresponding to the relaxation mode.
[0050] 6. Switch button: used to turn on or off the light of the control end lighting device 20.
[0051] 7. Seat sensing button: used to enable the seat sensing function, which automatically turns on the light of the control end lighting device 20 when the user approaches or sits down, and automatically turns off the light of the control end lighting device 20 after the user leaves.
[0052] 8. Automatic dimming button: When a first touch signal is received, it is used to enable the function of automatically adjusting the light brightness of the control-end lighting device 20 according to the ambient light to ensure that the indoor lighting is always maintained at a comfortable level. When a second touch signal is received, this button can be used as a wireless communication pairing control to start and establish a wireless connection between the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30. The first touch signal is different from the second touch signal. For example, the first touch signal is a click signal, and the second touch signal is a long press signal.
[0053] 9. Timing button: When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are not connected, this button is used to adjust the light of the control-end lighting device 20 alone. When the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 are wirelessly connected, this button can be used as a linkage timing control to time the control-end lighting device 20 and the controlled-end lighting device 30 at the same time.
[0054] These operating controls on the control end lighting device 20 can be used individually or in combination to meet the needs and preferences of different users. This flexibility enables the lamp system 10 to adapt to a wide range of usage scenarios and user needs, thereby providing a highly personalized and intelligent lighting solution.
[0055] In an illustrative example, the control end lighting device 20 is a desk lamp, and the controlled end lighting device 30 is a ceiling lamp or other global lighting device. Figure 3 , showing a schematic structural diagram of a lamp system 10 provided by another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0056] The table lamp and the ceiling lamp can be connected wirelessly to send or receive control signals. After the table lamp and the ceiling lamp are connected (matched), the table lamp and the ceiling lamp can be jointly controlled through the control input module. The control input module, that is, the control terminal, can be an operation button or knob on the table lamp, or it can be a separate controller (such as a remote control). The control input module inputs for the purpose of scene setting, such as "learning mode", "organizing mode", "relaxation mode", etc. The table lamp and the ceiling lamp can be jointly adjusted to the appropriate light output characteristics through wireless signal transmission, so that the lighting of the entire space can achieve the best effect. Among them, the color and brightness of the ceiling lamp can be adjusted (including turning off the light). The table lamp and the ceiling lamp are linked to realize the combination of local lighting and global lighting, so that the illumination, color temperature, and color ratio of the three global areas (work area, adjacent area, and environmental area) are more appropriate for different life scenes, so as to achieve the purpose of concentrating attention, being more relaxed, and protecting the eyes.
[0057] In summary, the disclosed embodiment provides a lighting system, including a control-end lighting device and a controlled-end lighting device, wherein the control-end lighting device includes a first wireless communication module, and the controlled-end lighting device includes a second wireless communication module, and the first wireless communication module is connected to the second wireless communication module; that is, a lighting solution capable of integrating the control-end and controlled-end lighting devices (such as a desk lamp and a ceiling lamp or other lighting devices) into a lighting system is provided, and a collaborative lighting system is formed through the wirelessly connected control-end and controlled-end lighting devices, which realize the combination of local lighting and global lighting in linkage, so that users can realize accurate and personalized adjustment of local and global lighting environments through simple control inputs. This lighting system should be able to provide scene-based lighting configuration, automatically adjust the color and brightness of light to meet the needs of different life and work scenarios, so as to achieve the purpose of being more conducive to eye health, concentration or relaxation.
