Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation control, specifically to a parking space lock control system. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the electronics and automation control industries, parking locks, as devices to prevent unauthorized occupation of parking spaces, are becoming increasingly widely used. They can be seen everywhere in commercial buildings and residential communities. This demonstrates that parking locks have spread throughout the city and are gradually becoming a necessity in people's daily lives.

[0003] With the increase in parking locks, the control of a large number of parking locks has become increasingly difficult. The current control method for parking locks is mostly one-to-one control, that is, one controller controls one parking lock. In addition, the existing parking locks will always be in a signal search state before receiving a control signal from the controller to avoid the problem of signal loss. This control method will significantly increase the number of controllers and also increase the power consumption of the parking locks. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a parking lock control system that can achieve one-to-many control and reduce the energy consumption of parking locks.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a parking lock control system, including a main controller, a main Bluetooth module, multiple parking locks, and multiple slave Bluetooth modules. The main controller is equipped with the main Bluetooth module, and each of the multiple parking locks is equipped with at least one slave Bluetooth module. The main Bluetooth module is pre-configured with identification tags for the multiple slave Bluetooth modules and establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules simultaneously based on the identification tags. After the main Bluetooth module establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules, the main controller controls the state of the multiple parking locks.

[0006] In the parking lock control system of this utility model, the main controller can control the status of multiple parking locks based on the communication connection established between the main Bluetooth module and multiple slave Bluetooth modules. Thus, it can realize one-to-many control of multiple parking locks by one main controller. Compared with the existing technology where one main controller can only connect to one parking lock, it can also reduce the on-site construction cost and the control cost of multiple parking locks.

[0007] Optionally, the parking lock further includes: a Bluetooth broadcast control module electrically connected to the slave Bluetooth module; the Bluetooth broadcast control module detects the communication connection status of the slave Bluetooth module, and enables Bluetooth broadcast when the communication connection status of the slave Bluetooth module is not connected, and disables Bluetooth broadcast when the communication connection status of the slave Bluetooth module is connected.

[0008] Optionally, the parking lock further includes: a fault detection module electrically connected to the Bluetooth module; the fault detection module detects the current state of the parking lock and generates a fault alarm signal when the current state of the parking lock differs from the state of the control signal.

[0009] Optionally, the main controller further includes: a heartbeat signal generation module that is communicatively connected to the main Bluetooth module; the heartbeat signal generation module periodically generates a heartbeat signal and sends it to the main Bluetooth module, and the main Bluetooth module sends the heartbeat signal to the corresponding slave Bluetooth module to maintain the communication connection between the main Bluetooth module and the slave Bluetooth module.

[0010] Optionally, the main controller may include any one of a video probe, a navigation camera, and a switch.

[0011] Optionally, the main controller includes a storage module for storing identification identifiers of multiple slave Bluetooth modules.

[0012] Optionally, the connection between the master Bluetooth module and the slave Bluetooth module is a persistent connection.

[0013] Optionally, it also includes: a cloud server and a user terminal; the cloud server is simultaneously communicatively connected to the user terminal and the main controller; the cloud server stores all the identification identifiers of the slave Bluetooth modules.

[0014] In some embodiments, the parking lock includes a parking controller and a parking switch, wherein the parking controller controls the opening and closing state of the parking lock after the slave Bluetooth module establishes a communication connection with the master Bluetooth module.

[0015] In some embodiments, the parking lock further includes a control motor, and the parking controller controls the opening and closing state of the parking lock through the control motor.

[0016] The parking lock control system of this utility model includes a main controller, a main Bluetooth module, multiple parking locks, and multiple slave Bluetooth modules. The main controller is equipped with the main Bluetooth module. Each of the multiple parking locks is equipped with at least one slave Bluetooth module. The main Bluetooth module is pre-configured with identification tags for the multiple slave Bluetooth modules and establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules simultaneously based on the identification tags. After the main Bluetooth module establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules, the main controller controls the state of the multiple parking locks. This achieves one-to-many control of multiple parking locks by a single main controller, and the main controller can maintain simultaneous communication connections with multiple slave Bluetooth modules. Keeping the slave Bluetooth modules of the parking locks in a continuous communication connection state effectively reduces the power consumption of the parking locks. Attached Figure Description

In the following description, the same reference numerals are used for the same parts, and repeated descriptions are omitted. Furthermore, the drawings are merely schematic diagrams, and the proportions of the parts or the shapes of the parts may differ from the actual figures.

[0023] It should be noted that the terms "comprising" and "having" in this utility model, and any variations thereof, such as the process, method, system, product, or device that includes or has a series of steps or units, are not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include or have other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0024] Reference Figure 1This utility model provides a parking lock control system. The parking lock control system may include a main controller 100, a main Bluetooth module 110, multiple parking locks 200, and multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210.

[0025] In some embodiments, the main controller 100 is configured with a main Bluetooth module. In some embodiments, the number of parking locks 200 may be the same as the number of slave Bluetooth modules 210. Each parking lock 200 may be configured with at least one slave Bluetooth module 210.

[0026] In some embodiments, the master Bluetooth module 110 may be pre-configured with identification identifiers for multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210. The master Bluetooth module 110 may establish communication connections with each of the multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210 based on the identification identifiers. After the master Bluetooth module 110 establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210, the master controller 100 controls the status of the multiple parking locks 200. The status of the parking lock 200 may include the on / off state of the parking lock 200. One or more slave Bluetooth modules 210 may be configured in the parking lock 200, thereby enabling Bluetooth communication between multiple control terminals and the parking lock 200.

[0027] In the parking lock control system of this utility model, the main controller 100 can control the status of multiple parking locks 200 based on the communication connection established between the main Bluetooth module 110 and multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210. Therefore, it is possible to achieve one-to-many control of multiple parking locks 200 by one main controller 100. Compared with the prior art where one main controller can only connect to one parking lock, this also reduces on-site construction costs and control costs for multiple parking locks.

[0028] In some embodiments, the identification identifier can be a MAC address (Media Access Control Address). The master Bluetooth module 110 can establish communication connections with multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210 based on the MAC address.

[0029] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The multiple parking locks 200 may include a first parking lock 201, a second parking lock 202, ..., an Nth parking lock 20N, etc. The multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210 may include a first slave Bluetooth module 211, a second slave Bluetooth module 212, ..., an Nth slave Bluetooth module 21N. Each parking lock 200 can establish a wired or wireless signal connection with a slave Bluetooth module.

[0030] In some embodiments, the main Bluetooth module 110 can establish a wired connection with the main controller 100.

[0031] In some embodiments, the number of parking locks 200 can be from one to 20. In other words, the number of Bluetooth modules 210 can also be from one to 20.

[0032] In some embodiments, the main Bluetooth module 110 can be integrated into the main controller 100. This saves layout space for the main controller 100 and the main Bluetooth module 110.

[0033] In some embodiments, the Bluetooth module 210 can be integrated into the parking lock 200. This saves layout space for the parking lock 200 and the Bluetooth module 210.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the main controller 100 may further include a heartbeat signal generation module 120 that is communicatively connected to the main Bluetooth module 110. The heartbeat signal generation module periodically generates a heartbeat signal and sends it to the main Bluetooth module 110. The main Bluetooth module 110 then sends the heartbeat signal to the corresponding slave Bluetooth module 210 to maintain the communication connection between the main Bluetooth module 110 and the slave Bluetooth module 210.

[0035] In some embodiments, the main controller 100 may include any one of a video probe, a navigation camera, and a switch. In addition to their own shooting and video monitoring functions, the video probe and navigation camera can also establish communication connections with multiple parking locks 200.

[0036] User terminals can be mobile phones, tablets, smartwatches, etc. In this case, users can view the video monitored by the video probes on their user terminals, and can also view the real-time status of multiple parking locks 200 detected by the video probes, making it convenient for users to remotely locate and unlock the parking locks 200.

[0037] In some embodiments, the main controller 100 may include a storage module 130. The storage module 130 can be used to store identification identifiers of multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210. Additionally, the storage module 130 can be used to store connection information between the main Bluetooth module 110 and the slave Bluetooth modules 210. Therefore, after the main controller 100 loses connection with the slave Bluetooth modules 210 due to a fault such as power failure, it can automatically re-establish a connection with the slave Bluetooth modules 210 based on the connection information stored in the storage module 130 once the fault is cleared.

[0038] In some embodiments, the connection between the master Bluetooth module 110 and the slave Bluetooth module 210 can be a long-term connection (LTC). This allows for full utilization of the advantages of long-term connections to enhance the reliability of the connection between the master Bluetooth module 110 and the slave Bluetooth module 210. For example, in a long-term connection state, the master controller 100 can monitor the status of the parking lock 200 in real time, periodically confirm the validity of the connection (through a long-term connection heartbeat mechanism), and ensure the security and stability of data transmission (through long-term connection encryption and retransmission mechanisms).

[0039] In some embodiments, each slave Bluetooth module 210 may have a different identification identifier, and the master Bluetooth module 110 establishes a connection with the slave Bluetooth modules 210 in sequence according to the different identification identifiers.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the parking lock 200 may include a parking controller 220 and a parking switch 240. The parking controller 220 can control the state of the parking switch 240 after establishing a communication connection with the main Bluetooth module 110 from the Bluetooth module 210.

[0041] In some embodiments, the parking lock 200 may further include a control motor 230. The parking controller 220 can control the state of the parking switch 240 by controlling the control motor 230.

[0042] In some embodiments, the parking lock 200 may further include a Bluetooth broadcast control module 250 electrically connected to the Bluetooth module 210. The Bluetooth broadcast control module 250 detects the communication connection status of the Bluetooth module 210, enabling Bluetooth broadcasting when the communication connection status of the Bluetooth module 210 is not connected, and disabling Bluetooth broadcasting when the communication connection status of the Bluetooth module 210 is connected.

[0043] In this invention, the main Bluetooth module 110 and multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210 can initially be in a broadcast state to search for connection signals. When the Bluetooth broadcast control module detects that the main Bluetooth module 110 has established a connection with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules 210, it can control the slave Bluetooth modules 210 to turn off the broadcast state. This prevents the parking lock 200 from mistakenly connecting to other devices and reduces broadcast power consumption.

[0044] In some embodiments, the parking lock 200 may further include a fault detection module 260 electrically connected to the Bluetooth module 210. The fault detection module 260 detects the current state of the parking lock 200 and generates a fault alarm signal when the current state of the parking lock 200 differs from the state of the control signal.

[0045] In some embodiments, the parking lock 200 may also be equipped with indicator lights. In this case, the parking lock 200 can display different colors to inform the user of the current status of the parking space. For example, red may indicate that the parking space is being used or reserved; green may indicate that the parking space is available or reserved; yellow may indicate that the parking lock is malfunctioning or out of service. Of course, after the user unlocks the parking lock, the indicator light can flash to remind the user of the location of the parking space.

[0046] In some embodiments, the parking lock 200 may also be equipped with a buzzer. In this case, the buzzer can serve to alert the user in certain situations where the parking lock 200 is in use. For example, it can emit a sound to indicate the specific location of the parking space after the user unlocks the parking lock; or it can emit a short sound to indicate that the user has successfully reserved a parking space.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The parking lock control system of the present invention may further include a cloud server 300 and a user terminal 400. The cloud server 300 is simultaneously connected to the user terminal 400 and the main controller 100. The cloud server 400 stores all the identification marks of the Bluetooth module 210.

[0048] Users can access the cloud server 300 through the user terminal 400 and select the parking lock to be controlled on the cloud server 300. After verifying the user's legitimacy, the cloud server 300 will send the identification mark of the corresponding parking lock from the Bluetooth module to the user terminal 400. This enables the user terminal to pair with the corresponding parking lock via Bluetooth, thereby realizing the control of the parking lock and further expanding the control flexibility of the parking lock control system provided in this application.

[0049] The parking lock control system of this utility model includes a main controller, a main Bluetooth module, multiple parking locks, and multiple slave Bluetooth modules. The main controller is equipped with the main Bluetooth module. Each of the multiple parking locks is equipped with at least one slave Bluetooth module. The main Bluetooth module is pre-configured with identification tags for the multiple slave Bluetooth modules and establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules simultaneously based on the identification tags. After the main Bluetooth module establishes communication connections with the multiple slave Bluetooth modules, the main controller controls the state of the multiple parking locks. This achieves one-to-many control of multiple parking locks by a single main controller, and the main controller can maintain simultaneous communication connections with multiple slave Bluetooth modules. Keeping the slave Bluetooth modules of the parking locks in a continuous communication connection state effectively reduces the power consumption of the parking locks.

[0050] Although the present invention has been specifically described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples, it is to be understood that the above description does not limit the present invention in any way. Those skilled in the art can make modifications and variations to the present invention as needed without departing from the essential spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the present invention.
