[0021] In the following description, for purposes of explanation and not limitation, specific details are set forth, such as particular architectures, techniques, etc. in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present application can be practiced in other embodiments that depart from these specific details. In other instances, detailed descriptions of well-known methods, devices, and circuits are omitted so as not to obscure the description of the present application with unnecessary detail.

[0022] To make the above-mentioned purposes, features, and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is understood that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The embodiment of the present application provides a bell device. The bell device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used as a doorbell. Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a three-dimensional mechanism of a bell-pressing device provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the bell device projecting a virtual key in the embodiment, Figure 3 yes Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the bell device detecting the touch of a virtual key in an embodiment.

[0024] In some embodiments, the bell device 10 may include a main body 100, a light-emitting assembly 200, and a motion detector 210. The main body 100 may include a housing for the bell device 10. The main body 100 may be used to house the electronic components of the bell device 10. The main body 100 may be installed externally, for example, on a door or wall.

[0025] The light-emitting component 200 can be arranged in the main body 100. The light-emitting component 200 can emit projection light, which can be used to form a virtual key 201. The light-emitting component 200 includes, for example but not limited to, a projection lamp or a projector. In some embodiments, the light-emitting component 200 can be arranged inside the main body 100. The main body 100 can be provided with a projection port 101, which is used for allowing the projection light to pass through. The output side of the light-emitting component 200 faces the projection port 101, so that the transmitted light emitted by the light-emitting component 200 can be projected through the projection port 101 to form a virtual key 201 at the illuminated position. The output side is the side of the light-emitting component 200 that is used to emit projection light. In other embodiments, the light-emitting component 200 can also be arranged on the outer surface of the main body 100, so that the light-emitting component 200 can emit projection light to form a virtual key 201. The following description takes the example of the light-emitting component 200 being arranged inside the main body 100. It can be understood that the virtual key 201 is an optical projection.

[0026] The action detector 210 can be disposed on the main body 100. The action detector 210 can be configured to detect an action of touching the virtual key 201 to trigger a sound generating component (not shown) to generate a first ring tone. The first ring tone can be one or more ring tones corresponding to the virtual key 201. In the case where the first ring tone includes multiple ring tones, the multiple ring tones can be manually changed or automatically changed according to a preset program, for example, after a certain number of times of triggering one of the ring tones, the next ring tone is triggered. The sound generating component is a component of the ring device 10 for generating a ring tone, which will be described below. In some embodiments, the action detector 210 can be disposed inside the main body 100. In other embodiments, the action detector 210 can be disposed on the outer surface of the main body 100. The position of the action detector 210 can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0027] In some embodiments, the action detector 210 can be a camera. The camera can be configured to be able to take an angle of the virtual projection formation position. In other words, the area covered by the virtual projection formed by the projection light is also the area taken by the camera. The camera can detect the action of touching the virtual key 201 by taking the virtual key 201. For example, when a person touches the virtual key 201 with his hand, the camera can take a picture of the person's hand, thereby detecting the action of touching the virtual key 201.

[0028] It can be understood that the action detector 210 can be configured to consider that the action of touching the virtual key 201 is detected when the surface on which the virtual key 201 is located is touched. The action detector 210 can also be configured to consider that the action of touching the virtual key 201 is detected when the projection light forming the virtual key 201 is blocked.

[0029] In other embodiments, the action detector 210 can be other devices that can detect whether the virtual key 201 is touched.

[0030] For example, the action detector 210 can be a light proximity sensor. The light proximity sensor can emit detection light towards the virtual key 201 area and receive reflected light, and detect the action of touching the virtual key 201 by sensing the change in pulse value of the reflected light. When a person touches the virtual key 201 with his hand, the reflected light received by the light proximity sensor will change, thereby detecting the action of touching the virtual key 201.

[0031] For another example, the action detector 210 can be a heat radiation sensor. The heat radiation sensor can detect the action of touching the virtual key 201 by sensing the heat radiation of the virtual key 201 area. When a person touches the virtual key 201 with his hand, the heat radiation sensor can sense the presence of the hand as a heat radiation body, thereby detecting the action of touching the virtual key 201.

[0032] The embodiment of the present application utilizes the light-emitting component 200 to project and form a virtual key 201, and utilizes the motion detector 210 to detect the action of the virtual key 201 being touched to trigger the sound-emitting component and cause it to emit the first ring. Thus, the virtual key 201 formed by the projected light can replace the conventional ring trigger physical structure to provide many beneficial effects.

[0033] First, the bell device 10 of the embodiment of the present application can adjust the position of the light-emitting component 200 and the motion detector 210 as needed to adjust the position of the virtual button 201, making the bell device 10 applicable to more scenarios. In some embodiments, the bell device 10 can form the virtual button 201 in an area outside the main body 100, thereby separating the trigger position and the installation position of the bell device 10, making the installation of the bell device 10 more flexible. For example, the bell device 10 can be used as a doorbell, with the main body 100 installed in a hidden location such as a corner, and the virtual button 201 formed in a conspicuous location such as a door panel. This not only achieves an aesthetic effect, but also because the virtual button 201 is non-physical, it does not require destructive installation of the formation area like a physical structure. In other embodiments, the bell device 10 can also be a region where the virtual button 201 is formed on the main body 100.

[0034] Secondly, the virtual button 201 of the bell device 10 of the embodiment of the present application is formed by projecting light, which can be used to indicate the trigger position of the bell device 10 to a person approaching, so that the person approaching may not be able to find the trigger position of the bell device 10. In addition, the projected light forming the virtual button 201 can also provide illumination in a dark environment. The person approaching may be a person approaching the bell device 10.

[0035] Third, the physical trigger structure of a conventional doorbell typically requires pressing to trigger the bell. Repeated, prolonged pressing or excessive pressure can damage the physical trigger structure. In contrast, the virtual button 201 of the bell device 10 of the present embodiment does not have a physical structure. The bell device 10 triggers the bell by detecting the action of touching the virtual button 201. Even repeated and forceful pressing does not damage the trigger structure, extending the service life of the bell device 10. Furthermore, since the virtual button 201 is not a physical structure, it does not take up installation space.

[0036] The bell device 10 of the embodiment of the present application can be installed externally by placing the main body 100 in a specific posture so that the light emitting component 200 provided on the main body 100 can project the virtual button 201 at a preset position. Figure 1 and Figure 4 , Figure 4Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the bell device from another angle, according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0037] In some embodiments, the main body 100 can include a front side 110 as shown in Figure 1 Fig. 1, and a back side 120 as shown in Figure 4 Fig. 2. The back side 120 is arranged opposite to the front side 110. In the case that the main body 100 is installed externally, the back side 120 can face an external surface, such as a door surface, a wall surface, etc. The front side 110 can be used to face an approaching person. In some embodiments, the back side 120 of the main body 100 can be provided with a fixing portion 130. The fixing portion 130 is used to achieve fixed installation of the main body 100 externally. Alternatively, the fixing portion 130 is a protruding portion with a threaded hole arranged therein, and the bell device 10 can achieve fixed installation of the main body 100 externally by inserting a threaded member fixed externally into the threaded hole of the fixing portion 130. In other embodiments, the fixing portion 130 can also be other structures used to achieve fixed installation of the main body 100, such as buckles, adhesive stickers, etc.

[0038] In some embodiments, the back side 120 of the main body 100 can be provided with a lead port 102. In some embodiments, the bell device 10 can be powered by an external power source. The external power source can be electrically connected to the electronic devices inside the main body 100 through a lead passing through the lead port 102, and used to power the bell device 10. In other embodiments, the bell device 10 can be powered by an internal power source, which can be installed inside the main body 100 and electrically connected to the electronic devices. Alternatively, the internal power source of the bell device 10 can be electrically connected to the external power source through a lead passing through the lead port 102, so that the bell device 10 can use the external power source to charge the internal power source. In some embodiments, the bell device 10 can also use both internal and external power sources to power the electronic devices. The light-emitting assembly 200 of the bell device 10 can achieve the function of projecting the virtual key 201 under the power supply of the external power source and / or the internal power source.

[0039] In some embodiments, the main body 100 can be provided with a sound-emitting hole 103. The sound-emitting hole 103 can be used to output a ringing sound, such as a first ringing sound emitted by the virtual key 201 triggering the sound-emitting assembly. The sound-emitting hole 103 can be one or more. Alternatively, the main body 100 can be provided with multiple sound-emitting holes 103 arranged side by side. The main body 100 can be provided with a sound-emitting assembly (not shown) arranged near the sound-emitting hole 103, which can be used to emit the first ringing sound according to the triggering of the virtual key 201. Figure 4 Figure 4 ​The first ring sound device 10 is shown to be disposed at the bottom of the main body 100. In other embodiments, the first ring sound device 10 can also utilize an external sound emitting device to emit the first ring sound. The first ring sound device 10 can be wirelessly connected to the external sound emitting device. The first ring sound device 10 can also be connected to the external sound emitting device by wire, and the wire can be disposed through the lead port 102.

[0040] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 is Figure 4 an exploded structural diagram of the first ring sound device in an embodiment.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first ring sound device 10 can include a light-transmitting piece 220. The light-transmitting piece 220 can be disposed at the main body 100 and at least partially cover the projection port 101. The light-transmitting piece 220 can be disposed opposite to the exit side of the light-emitting assembly 200, so that the projection light emitted by the light-emitting assembly 200 can pass through the light-transmitting piece 220. The light-transmitting piece 220 can be disposed in the projection port 101. The light-transmitting piece 220 can be provided with a pattern 202 corresponding to the virtual key 201, so that the projection light passing through the light-transmitting piece 220 can form the virtual key 201 on the illuminated surface. In some embodiments, the light-transmitting piece 220 can be a glass sheet.

[0042] The pattern 202 on the light-transmitting piece 220 can be formed by laser engraving. Laser engraving, also known as laser carving or laser marking, is a processing technology that uses numerical control technology and laser as a processing medium to irradiate the processing material, so that the irradiated area is melted or vaporized to form an engraved trace. The pattern 202 on the light-transmitting piece 220 is, for example but not limited to, a bell image. The first ring sound device 10 can design the pattern 202 on the light-transmitting piece 220 according to actual needs, such as but not limited to, a picture, a character, a symbol, etc.

[0043] In some embodiments, the main body 100 can be provided with a mounting portion 104. At least one light-transmitting piece 220 can be replaceably mounted on the mounting portion 104 to be in a position opposite to the exit side of the light-emitting assembly 200. The first ring sound device 10 can utilize the cooperation between the mounting portion 104 and the light-transmitting piece 220 to replace the light-transmitting piece 220 when necessary. For example, in the case that the light-transmitting piece 220 mounted on the main body 100 is damaged or has stains, the first ring sound device 10 can detach the light-transmitting piece 220 from the mounting portion 104 and mount another light-transmitting piece 220 on the mounting portion 104. For another example, the first ring sound device 10 can include a plurality of light-transmitting pieces 220 provided with different patterns 202, so that the first ring sound device 10 can change the projected virtual key 201 by replacing the light-transmitting piece 220, so that the first ring sound device 10 can meet the diversified needs and individualized customization needs of the virtual key 201.

[0044] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 104 can be a slot provided on the main body 100, which penetrates to the outer surface of the main body 100, so that the light-transmitting member 220 can be mounted by being inserted into the slot and can be dismounted by being removed from the slot. In other embodiments, the mounting portion 104 can also have other structures. For example, the mounting portion 104 can be a buckle provided on the main body 100, so that the light-transmitting member 220 can be mounted by being buckled and can be dismounted by being separated from the buckle. In other embodiments, the light-transmitting member 220 can also be fixed to the main body 100 or to the light-emitting assembly 200.

[0045] In some embodiments, the ringing device 10 can include a light-transmitting protective member 230. The protective member 230 can be provided on the main body 100 and at least partially cover the projection opening 101 to prevent foreign matter from entering the projection opening 101. Optionally, the protective member 230 can also cover the motion detector 210. In some embodiments, the protective member 230 can be a glass sheet. The protective member 230 can be embedded in a groove of the main body 100. In other embodiments, the protective member 230 can also be a cover body made of light-transmitting material.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 which is a partial cross-sectional structure diagram of the main body according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0047] In some embodiments, the projection opening 101 through which the projection light passes can be oriented at an acute angle or an obtuse angle with respect to the height direction H of the main body 100, such as the acute angle a or the obtuse angle β shown in Figure 6 , so that the projection light can be obliquely projected with respect to the main body 100. In some embodiments, the obliquely projected projection light can form a virtual key 201 on the surface on which the main body 100 is installed. In other embodiments, the obliquely projected projection light can form a virtual key 201 on the ground. The height direction H of the main body 100 can be the direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane when the main body 100 is in the installed state, such as the vertical direction shown in Figure 2 . The front side 110 and the back side 120 of the main body 100 can be opposite in the direction perpendicular to the height direction H of the main body 100.

[0048] It can be understood that when the direction X of the projection port 101 is parallel to the height direction H of the main body 100, the projected light will be projected toward the top or bottom side of the main body 100. When the direction X of the projection port 101 is perpendicular to the height direction H of the main body 100, the projected light will be projected toward the front or back side of the main body 100. In the embodiment of the present application, by making the direction X of the projection port 101 form an acute angle or an obtuse angle with the height direction H of the main body 100, the projected light can be tilted toward the external surface where the back side 120 of the main body 100 is installed, such as the surface of a door or a wall, or the projected light can be tilted toward the ground, so that the bell device 10 can project a virtual button 201 on the external surface.

[0049] The projection opening 101 may be provided in the area between the front side surface 110 and the back side surface 120 of the main body 100, for example Figure 6 As shown, the projection port 101 is located at the bottom of the main body 100. In other embodiments, the projection port 101 may be located elsewhere, such as at the top of the main body 100. It should be noted that the light-emitting assembly 200 may be located at a location where the projection port 101 is located, such as at the bottom of the main body 100 where the projection port 101 is located. The light-emitting assembly 200 may also be located at a location on the main body 100 where the projection port 101 is not located, as long as the projected light emitted by the light-emitting assembly 200 can pass through the projection port 101 to form the virtual key 201.

[0050] It can be understood that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0051] See also Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the partial structural composition of the bell device provided in some embodiments of the present application.

[0052] In some embodiments, the bell device 10 may include an identification mechanism 300 and an identification module 400. Both the identification mechanism 300 and the identification module 400 may be provided in the main body 100. The identification mechanism 300 may be used to obtain information about an approaching person. The identification module 400 may be a chip or a circuit board. The identification module 400 is connected to the identification mechanism 300 and the light-emitting component 200, and is used to control the light-emitting component 200 to project a virtual button 201 when the information about the approaching person meets a preset condition. The preset condition may be a condition for determining whether the approaching person is a specific person. For example, the bell device 10 may pre-store information about a specific person. When the information about the approaching person matches the pre-stored information about the specific person, the identification module 400 may determine that the preset condition is met.

[0053] The bell device 10 of the embodiments of the present application can use the identification mechanism 300 and the identification module 400 to cooperate to determine whether the approaching person is a specific group of people, and project the virtual key 201 when the approaching person is a specific group of people, and do not project the virtual key 201 when the approaching person is not a specific group of people.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , Figure 8 is Figure 4 The cross-sectional structure schematic diagram of the bell device along A-A in the embodiments, Figure 9 is Figure 4 The cross-sectional structure schematic diagram of the bell device along B-B in the embodiments.

[0055] In some embodiments, the bell device 10 can include a sound generating component 270. The sound generating component 270 can be disposed on the main body 100. The sound generating component 270 can be used to generate a first ring. The sound generating component 270 can be electrically connected with the action detector 210, for example, through a lead, to generate the first ring when the virtual key 201 is triggered.

[0056] The sound generating component 270 can also be used to generate a second ring. In some embodiments, the bell device 10 can include a physical key 260. The physical key 260 can be disposed on the outer surface of the main body 100 to trigger the sound generating component 270 and make it generate the second ring. The physical key 260 can be disposed on the front side 110 of the main body 100. In other embodiments, the physical key 260 can also be disposed on other positions of the main body 100, for example, the top of the main body 100.

[0057] The sound generating component 270 can be electrically connected with the physical key 260, for example, through a lead, to generate the second ring when the physical key 260 is triggered. In other embodiments, the physical key 260 can also be mechanically connected with the sound generating component 270, for example, the sound generating component 270 is plugged into the physical key 260.

[0058] It can be understood that the above-mentioned "connection" can be direct connection, or connection through another medium, for example, connection through a lead, a circuit board, a chip, etc. The sound generating component 270 can be disposed on the main body 100.

[0059] The sound-emitting component 270 may include at least one sound-emitting unit. The at least one sound-emitting unit may be configured to emit a first ring and a second ring. In some embodiments, the sound-emitting component 270 may include one sound-emitting unit, which may be configured to emit the first ring and the second ring. In other embodiments, the sound-emitting component 270 may include two sound-emitting units, each configured to emit the first ring and the second ring, respectively. In other embodiments, the sound-emitting component 270 may include more than two sound-emitting units, with some configured to emit the first ring and others configured to emit the second ring. The first ring and the second ring may be different ring tones.

[0060] The bell device 10 of the embodiment of the present application can trigger the sound component 270 to emit a first ring based on the detection of the action of touching the virtual key 201, and can also trigger the sound component 270 to emit a second ring based on the touch of the physical key 260. Therefore, the bell device 10 has two triggering modes, one real and one virtual. When the structure corresponding to one triggering mode is damaged, the structure corresponding to the other triggering mode can enable the bell device 10 to continue to operate. The physical ring triggering structure is a mature technology with a large number of prior art records, and will not be described in detail here.

[0061] In some embodiments, the second ring triggered by the physical button 260 is one or more ring tones. The second ring and the first ring can be different ring tones, so that the virtual button 201 and the physical button 260 can each be used to trigger different rings. The ringing device 10 can project the virtual button 201 from the light-emitting component 200 to perform an action designed to be executed when a preset condition is met. The difference in the ring tones corresponding to the virtual button 201 and the physical button 260 can be used to distinguish whether the preset condition is met. In other embodiments, the first ring and the second ring can also be the same ring tone.

[0062] It should be understood that the terms used in this specification and the appended claims are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. As used in this specification and the appended claims, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms of "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms. For example, the terms "first" and "second" in the description of this application are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the said features. For example, in the description of this application, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0063] The bell device 10 of the embodiments of the present application can determine whether the approaching person is a specific group of people meeting the preset condition by using the identification mechanism 300 and the identification module 400, so that the bell device 10 can project the virtual button 201 for triggering the sound generating component 270 to emit the first ring when the approaching person is a specific group of people, for example, a white list group, and only the physical button 260 for triggering the sound generating component 270 to emit the second ring can be used for triggering when the approaching person is a non-specific group of people, so that the ring triggered by the bell device 10 can be used to determine the identity of the approaching person.

[0064] The identification mechanism 300 can be any mechanism that can realize the function of obtaining the information of the approaching person.

[0065] In some embodiments, the identification mechanism 300 can include an image acquirer 310 as shown in the figure. Figure 1 The image acquirer 310 can be provided on the main body 100. The image acquirer 310 can be used to acquire image information of the approaching person. The image acquirer 310 is, for example, a camera. The image acquirer 310 can be provided on the front side 110 of the main body 100. In some embodiments, the image information of the approaching person acquired by the image acquirer 310 can be used to identify the identity of the approaching person, for example, by face recognition to determine whether the approaching person is a person pre-stored in the information library. Of course, the way to identify the identity of the approaching person is not limited to face recognition. When the image information of the approaching person meets the condition, the identification module 400 controls the light emitting component 200 to project the virtual button 201.

[0066] In the embodiments of the present application, the bell device 10 can identify the identity of the approaching person by the image information acquired by the image acquirer 310, and control the light emitting component 200 to project the virtual button 201 when the identity of the approaching person meets the preset condition. In some application scenarios, the bell device 10 can pre-store the identity information of a specific group of people, for example, face information, and set the preset condition as the approaching of the bell device 10 by the specific group of people, so that the bell device 10 can project the virtual button 201 when the specific group of people approaches the bell device 10.

[0067] In some embodiments, the identification mechanism 300 can include an image acquirer 310 as shown in the figure. Figure 8The distance detector 320 is shown. The distance detector 320 can be arranged on the main body 100. The distance detector 320 can be used to detect a proximity distance, which is the distance between the proximal person and the main body 100. In some embodiments, the distance detector 320 can be a radar. The radar can be arranged inside the main body 100 and detect the distance between the proximal person and the main body 100 by using electromagnetic waves. In other embodiments, the distance detector 320 can also be other devices that can detect the proximity distance, such as but not limited to an infrared sensor, an ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless sensor, etc., and the ranging principle can be, for example but not limited to, proximity light sensing, laser point projection position sensing, etc.

[0068] Optionally, the identification module 400 can control the light-emitting assembly 200 according to the proximity distance detected by the distance detector 320. For example, when the proximity distance is less than a preset value, the identification module 400 controls the light-emitting assembly 200 to project a virtual key.

[0069] It should be understood that the terms "comprising" and "having" and any variations thereof used in the present application and the appended claims are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but can optionally also include steps or units not listed, or can optionally also include other steps or units inherent to the process, method, product or device.

[0070] In some embodiments, the identification mechanism 300 can include the image acquirer 310 and the distance detector 320, and the identification module 400 can determine whether the proximal person meets the preset condition based on the image information of the proximal person and the proximity distance. The specific determination content will be described below. Of course, the identification mechanism 300 is not limited to the above design. For example, the identification mechanism 300 can include a fingerprint identifier for identifying the fingerprint of the proximal person, and the identification module 400 can determine whether the proximal person is a specific group of people based on the fingerprint identification result.

[0071] In some embodiments, the bell device 10 can include an infrared sensor 500 for sensing the presence of a proximal person. The infrared sensor 500 can be a pyroelectric infrared sensor 500, abbreviated as PIR (Passive Infra-Rey). The sensing principle of the infrared sensor 500 is that the body temperature is generally about 37°C, which emits about 10 μm infrared rays, and the infrared sensor 500 can sense such infrared rays, thereby being used to sense the approach of the human body. The infrared sensing source of the infrared sensor 500 can use a pyroelectric element. When the human body infrared radiation temperature changes are received, the element loses charge balance and releases charge outward, and the subsequent circuit can produce a signal after detection and processing. For example, when the infrared sensor 500 senses the approach of the human body, the identification module 400 controls the light-emitting assembly 200 to project a virtual key.

[0072] The ringer device 10 can further include a Fresnel lens 510 (PIR lens), which can be arranged on the main body 100 and cover the infrared sensor 500, for cooperating with the infrared sensor 500 to implement the partition detection. Through the special design and partition of the Fresnel lens 510, the detection sensitivity of the infrared sensor 500 can be improved, the detection distance can be increased, and the resistance of the infrared sensor 500 to environmental interference can be improved.

[0073] The ringer device 10 can further include a battery 280. The battery 280 can be arranged inside the main body 100 as an internal power supply of the ringer device 10. The battery 280 can be used to supply power to the above-mentioned electronic devices.

[0074] Please refer to Figure 7-9 Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , Figure 10 is a schematic diagram of a triggering scenario of the ringer device provided by some embodiments of the present application when the closer appears, Figure 11 is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of the ringer device provided by some embodiments of the present application.

[0075] In some embodiments, the ringer device 10 can be installed on the door body 20, which will be taken as an example in the following description. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the ringer device 10 can also be installed at other positions, for example, on a wall.

[0076] In some embodiments, the identification mechanism 300 can be used to obtain the height information of the closer. The identification module 400 of the ringer device 10 can include a height judgment module 410. The height judgment module 410 is connected to the identification mechanism 300, and is used to judge whether the height of the closer is within a preset range according to the height information.

[0077] Optionally, the identification mechanism 300 of the ringer device 10 can include an image acquirer 310 and a distance detector 320. The height judgment module 410 is connected to the image acquirer 310 and the distance detector 320, and is used to judge whether the height of the closer 30 is within a preset range according to the image information and the approaching distance. The height judgment module 410 can take the approaching distance as reference information, and calculate the actual height of the closer 30 in combination with the image height. The calculation method can be selected according to the needs.

[0078] Optionally, the approaching distance can be as shown in Figure 10The image information acquired by the image acquirer 310 includes an image height, i.e. the height of the approaching person 30 in the image. The image height changes according to the change of the approaching distance D of the approaching person 30. The height judging module 410 can calculate the actual height H2 of the approaching person 30 based on the image height, the approaching distance D, and the height H1 at which the main body 100 is installed, by using a trigonometric function, and then judge whether the height of the approaching person 30 is within a preset range.

[0079] In some embodiments, the height H1 at which the main body 100 is installed can be a value input in advance. For example, after the main body 100 is installed, the bell device 10 can input a measured value of the height at which the main body 100 is installed as H1. In other embodiments, the height H1 at which the main body 100 is installed can also be a default fixed value, so that the height judging module 410 can substitute the image height and the approaching distance D into the formula to calculate the actual height H2 of the approaching person 30. Correspondingly, the bell device 10 has the installation requirement of installing the main body 100 at the height.

[0080] It can be understood that the above height detection design is only an example of the present application. In other embodiments, the recognition mechanism 300 can also implement height detection in other ways. For example, the recognition mechanism can use the focal length of the camera as reference information to calculate the actual height of the approaching person 30 in combination with the image height.

[0081] The recognition module 400 can further include a first control module 420. The first control module 420 can be connected to the height judging module 410 and the light-emitting assembly 200, and is configured to control the starting state of the light-emitting assembly 200 according to the judgment result of the height judging module 410. In some embodiments, the first control module 420 and the height judging module 410 can be an integrated structure, for example, the same chip. In other embodiments, the first control module 420 and the height judging module 410 can also be a split structure.

[0082] When the height of the approaching person 30 is greatly different from the height at which the bell device 10 is installed, it can be inconvenient to press the bell. The embodiments of the present application can use the height judging module 410 to judge whether the height of the approaching person 30 is within a preset range, and the preset range can be the height range within which the approaching person 30 can conveniently touch the physical button 260. When the height of the approaching person 30 is out of the preset range, the first control module 420 can control the light-emitting assembly 200 to start to project the virtual button 201 on the door body 20 for the approaching person 30 to touch.

[0083] In some application scenarios, the height at which the push button device 10 is installed can be 1.2-1.5 meters to meet the use requirements of the identification mechanism 300. When the approaching person 30 approaches the door body 20, the height judging module 410 can judge the height of the approaching person 30 by using the above method. If the height of the approaching person 30 is convenient for touching the physical button 260, for example, the height of the approaching person 30 is 1.6 meters, then the first control module 420 does not control the light emitting assembly 200 to start; if the height of the approaching person 30 is not convenient for touching the physical button 260, for example, the height of the approaching person 30 is 1 meter, then the first control module 420 can control the light emitting assembly 200 to start, and the virtual button 201 is projected onto the door body 20.

[0084] The projection position of the virtual button 201 can be the bottom side of the push button device 10, so that the approaching person 30 can conveniently touch the virtual button 201. In some embodiments, the projection port 101 through which the push button device 10 projects light can be arranged at the bottom of the main body 100, so that the projection light emitted by the light emitting assembly 200 can be emitted from the bottom of the main body 100, as shown in the figure, so that the push button device 10 can form the virtual button 201 at the bottom side of the main body 100, to facilitate the approaching person 30 with a small height such as a child to touch the virtual button 201. Figure 10

[0085] In other embodiments, the projection port 101 can be arranged at the top of the main body 100, so that the projection light emitted by the light emitting assembly 200 can be emitted from the top of the main body 100, so that the push button device 10 can form the virtual button 201 at the top side of the main body 100, to facilitate the approaching person 30 with a height exceeding the upper limit of the preset range to touch the virtual button 201. In other embodiments, the push button device 10 can further include a plurality of light emitting assemblies 200, and the plurality of light emitting assemblies 200 can be distributed at different positions of the main body 100, for example, at the top and bottom of the main body 100, and the main body 100 is provided with a projection port 101 at the corresponding position. The first control module 420 can control the corresponding light emitting assembly 200 to start or control all light emitting assemblies 200 not to start according to the height of the approaching person 30.

[0086] It can be understood that the virtual button 201 of the push button device 10 is not limited to being projected on the door body 20 as described above. In some embodiments, the virtual button 201 of the push button device 10 can be projected on a wall. In other embodiments, the push button device 10 can include a projection part, for example but not limited to a curtain or a shell, and the virtual button 201 can be projected on the projection part.

[0087] Please refer to Figure 12 , Figure 12 is a partial structural composition schematic diagram of the push button device provided by some embodiments of the present application.

[0088] ​In some embodiments, the push button device 10 can comprise a photosensitive sensor 600 and a second control module 610. The photosensitive sensor 600 is configured to sense the brightness of the external environment of the push button device 10. The second control module 610 is connected to the photosensitive sensor 600 and the light emitting assembly 200, and is configured to control the activation state of the light emitting assembly 200 according to the brightness of the external environment. In some embodiments, the photosensitive sensor 600 can be arranged on the main body 100. When the brightness of the external environment is low, the second control module 610 can control the light emitting assembly 200 to be activated to project the virtual button 201, so as to play a lighting role and facilitate the person approaching to find the position of the button.

[0089] In some embodiments, the second control module 610 and the identification module 400 can be integrated into one structure, for example, the same chip. In other embodiments, the second control module 610 and the identification module 400 can also be separated into two structures.

[0090] Please refer to Figure 13 , Figure 13 is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of the push button device according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0091] In some embodiments, the push button device 10 can comprise an infrared sensor 500 and a third control module 520. The infrared sensor 500 is configured to sense the presence of the person approaching, which has been described above and will not be repeated here. The third control module 520 is connected to the infrared sensor 500, and is configured to control the push button device 10 to activate a preset function when the person approaching is present. The third control module 520 can be connected to the electronic device 11 of the push button device 10, for example, but not limited to, the light emitting assembly 200, the identification module 300, the photosensitive sensor 600, etc. The preset function can be, for example, but not limited to, the light emitting assembly 200 projecting the virtual button 201, the identification module 300 identifying the information of the person approaching, the photosensitive sensor 600 sensing the brightness of the external environment, etc.

[0092] The push button device 10 according to the embodiments of the present application can control one or more preset functions to be activated after the infrared sensor 500 senses the presence of the person approaching, without the corresponding functions being activated all the time, which is beneficial to save energy consumption.

[0093] Please refer to Figure 14 , Figure 14 is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of the push button device according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0094] In some embodiments, the third control module 520 can be connected to the first control module 420 and the second control module 610. When the approaching person approaches the bell device 10 to be sensed by the infrared sensor 500, the third control module 520 can control the identification mechanism 300 to acquire the information of the approaching person through the first control module 420, so that the identification module 400 can identify; the third control module 520 can also control the photosensitive sensor 600 to sense the external environment brightness through the second control module 610, so that the second control module 610 can control the starting state of the light emitting assembly 200. In other embodiments, the infrared sensor 500 can also be directly connected to the first control module 420 and the second control module 610 without the third control module 520.

[0095] In some embodiments, one or more of the first control module 420, the height judgment module 410, the second control module 610 and the third control module 520 can be an integrated structure, for example, the same chip. In other embodiments, each of the above modules can also be separately arranged.
