[0025] Exemplarily, Figure 2 An electronic door lock hardware structure schematic diagram provided by some embodiments of the present application is shown. As Figure 2As shown, the electronic door lock 200 comprises a controller 20, a first identification unit 21, a second identification unit 22, a storage unit 23, a door unlocking component 24 and a communication unit 25 connected with the controller 20; the communication unit 25 is configured to communicate with a mobile terminal to receive a control instruction sent by the mobile terminal; the storage unit 23 is configured to store first identification information and second identification information; the door unlocking component 24 is configured to open or close the door lock; when the first identification unit 21 identifies that the first identification information of a user is passed, or the second identification unit 22 identifies that the second identification information of the user is passed, the controller 20 controls the door unlocking component 24 to open the door lock. The controller 20 is configured to control the working state of the first identification unit 21 and / or the second identification unit 22 to be an open state or a closed state.

[0026] In the embodiments of the present application, when the working state of the first identification unit 21 is the open state, the first identification unit 21 can respond to the first identification information of the user, and when the first identification information is passed, the controller 20 controls the door unlocking component 24 to open the door lock; when the working state of the first identification unit 21 is the closed state, the first identification unit 21 will not respond to the first identification information of the user; at this time, the first identification information cannot be used to open the door lock. Similarly, when the working state of the second identification unit 22 is the open state, the second identification unit 22 can respond to the second identification information of the user, and when the second identification information is passed, the controller 20 controls the door unlocking component 24 to open the door lock; when the working state of the second identification unit 22 is the closed state, the second identification unit 22 will not respond to the second identification information of the user; at this time, the second identification information cannot be used to open the door lock. Therefore, the controller can adjust the opening trigger mode of the electronic door lock 200 by adjusting the working state of the first identification unit 21 and / or the second identification unit 22. In some embodiments of the present application, the controller 20 is further configured to send the current working state of the first identification unit 21 and / or the second identification unit 22 to the mobile terminal.

[0027] In some embodiments, the controller 20 can control the working mode of the first identification unit 21 and the second identification unit 22 to be the open state. In other embodiments, the controller 20 can control the working mode of the first identification unit 21 and the second identification unit 22 to be the closed state. In some embodiments, the controller can also control the working mode of the first identification unit 21 to be the open state and the working mode of the second identification unit 22 to be the closed state; or the controller 20 controls the working mode of the first identification unit 21 to be the closed state and the working mode of the second identification unit 22 to be the open state.

[0028] In some embodiments, the controller 20 can also send the current working state of the first identification unit 21 and / or the second identification unit 22 to the mobile terminal through the communication unit 24, so that the mobile terminal displays the current working state of the first identification unit and / or the second identification unit through the display screen. The communication unit 24 can be a Bluetooth module or a WIFI module, etc.

[0029] In the embodiments of the present application, the first identification unit 21 and the second identification unit 22 refer to any two kinds of identity identifiers for identifying different identity information of a user. For example, in some embodiments, the first identification unit 21 and the second identification unit 22 are any two of a face identifier, a fingerprint identifier, an iris identifier, an NFC identifier, and a password identifier. In other embodiments, the first identification unit 21 and the second identification unit 22 can also be any other suitable type of identity identifier.

[0030] In other embodiments, the electronic door lock 200 can also include three or more identification units for identifying different identity information of a user; that is, the electronic door lock 100 includes: a first identification unit 21, a second identification unit 22,..., and an Nth identification unit 2N, which are in communication connection with the controller 20; wherein N is a positive integer not less than 3. When the corresponding identity identification information of a user is identified by any one of the first identification unit to the Nth identification unit, the controller controls the unlocking assembly to unlock. The controller is used to control the working state of any one or more of the first identification unit to the Nth identification unit to be in an open state or a closed state. In this embodiment, the electronic door lock includes N identification units, that is, the first identification unit to the Nth identification unit; the N identification units correspond to N unlocking modes. Through the working state of each identification unit in the N identification units, the controller can select one or more unlocking modes required by the user from the N unlocking modes for unlocking, or the controller can set the working state of each identification unit in the N identification units to be in a closed state, so that the electronic door lock can only be unlocked by the mechanical lock itself.

[0031] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first identification unit 21 is a fingerprint identifier, and the first identification information is fingerprint information; the second identification unit 22 is a password identifier, and the second identification information is password information; and the controller 20 is used to control the working state of the second identification unit 21 to be in an open state or a closed state. In this embodiment, the controller can control the working state of the password identifier to be in a closed state, so that the user can use the fingerprint identifier to unlock, but cannot use the password identifier to unlock, so that the electronic door lock has a mistaken touch prevention function for the password input keys (such as number keys) of the password identifier.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the electronic door lock comprises a handle portion 30, and the password recognizer 32 and the fingerprint recognizer 31 are both arranged on the handle portion 30. The password recognizer 32 comprises digital keys. Since the password recognizer 32 and the fingerprint recognizer 31 are both arranged on the handle portion 30 which has a relatively small space, the digital keys of the password recognizer 32 are close to the fingerprint input area of the fingerprint recognizer 31. If the working states of the password recognizer 32 and the fingerprint recognizer 31 are both in the open state, when a user holds the handle portion 30 to perform fingerprint unlocking, the user's finger often touches the digital keys, resulting in false touch, which affects the normal use of the electronic door lock 30 or causes the electronic door lock 30 to fail to unlock, and further causes poor user experience. At this time, the controller 20 can control the working state of the password recognizer 32 to be in the closed state, so that when the user holds the digital keys on the handle portion 30 to touch the keyboard, the digital keys will not respond to the user's touch operation, thereby avoiding false touch.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 2, in some embodiments, the electronic door lock 200 further comprises a display screen 26 which is in communication connection with the controller 20, and the display screen 26 is used to display the current working state of the first recognition unit 21 and / or the second recognition unit 22 through text or icons. Figure 2

[0034] Please continue to refer to FIG. 2, in some embodiments, the electronic door lock 200 further comprises a loudspeaker 27 which is in communication connection with the controller 20, and the loudspeaker 27 is used to broadcast the current working state of the first recognition unit 21 and / or the second recognition unit 22 by using voice. For example, the loudspeaker 27 can broadcast "fingerprint unlocking has been opened", "fingerprint unlocking has been closed", "password unlocking has been opened" or "password unlocking has been closed", etc. Figure 2 In some embodiments, the electronic door lock 200 further comprises an indicator light 28 which is used to indicate the current working state of the first recognition unit 21 and / or the second recognition unit 22. For example, if the indicator light 28 is on, it indicates that the working state is in the open state; if the indicator light 28 is off, it indicates that the working state is in the closed state. Specifically, the indicator light 28 can comprise a first indicator light and a second indicator light, wherein the first indicator light is used to indicate the working state of the first recognition unit, and the second indicator light is used to indicate the working state of the second recognition unit. If the first indicator light is off, it indicates that the first recognition unit is in the closed state; if the first indicator light is on, it indicates that the first recognition unit is in the open state. Similarly, if the second indicator light is off, it indicates that the second recognition unit is in the closed state; if the second indicator light is on, it indicates that the second recognition unit is in the open state.

[0035] In the second aspect of the present application, a control system of an electronic door lock is also provided, as shown in FIG. 3.

[0036] Figure 5 ​​As shown, the system 50 comprises: a mobile terminal 52 and an electronic door lock 51 as provided in the above embodiments in communication connection with the mobile terminal 52, wherein the structure and functions of the electronic door lock 51 please refer to the above description of the electronic door lock of each embodiment, and the present application does not add to the present application.

[0037] In the embodiments of the present application, the mobile terminal 52 is used to send a control instruction to the electronic door lock 51, and the controller of the electronic door lock 51 receives the control instruction through the communication unit, the control instruction is used to indicate the working state of the first identification unit and / or the second identification unit to be in an open state or a closed state, so that the controller adjusts the working state of the first identification unit and / or the second identification unit.

[0038] In some other embodiments, when the electronic door lock comprises the first to the Nth (N≥3) identification units, the control instruction is used to indicate the working state of at least one of the first to the Nth identification units to be in an open state or a closed state, so that the controller adjusts the working state of at least one of the first to the Nth identification units. In this embodiment, the user can select any one or more of the N unlocking modes of the electronic door lock 51 by operating the mobile terminal 52 to unlock, so that the user's management of various unlocking modes of the electronic door lock 51 is more convenient.

[0039] In some embodiments, the controller of the electronic door lock can also send the current working state of the first identification unit and / or the second identification unit to the terminal device through the communication unit, so that the display screen of the terminal device can display the current working state of the first identification unit and / or the second identification unit.

[0040] Specifically, the mobile terminal 52 is installed with an application software, which provides a management interface.
