Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electrical equipment, and more specifically, to a temperature control system. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of electronics and electricity, all kinds of household appliances have entered people's lives. As an automatic control element, the thermostat can control the operation of household appliances by generating a conduction or disconnection action through internal physical deformation according to the temperature changes of the working environment.
[0003] In related technologies, thermostats can collect data such as the temperature of the air conditioner, the air conditioner's fan speed, and the temperature of the underfloor heating in real time. Users can also set the indoor temperature through the thermostat. When the thermostat detects that the ambient temperature has reached the set indoor temperature, it controls the air conditioner or underfloor heating to stop running or maintain the current operating state.
[0004] However, when using related technologies for temperature monitoring of home appliances, there are limitations: they only support temperature monitoring of appliances such as air conditioners and underfloor heating, and they only detect the ambient temperature around the thermostat, failing to detect temperature changes in appliances at greater distances. Furthermore, the thermostat cannot control the automatic fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire if the appliance causes a fire. Therefore, these technologies suffer from limited temperature detection range and relatively poor safety and reliability. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0051] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0052] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0053] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only for distinguishing descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0054] Currently, thermostats are commonly used to collect real-time data such as air conditioner temperature, air conditioner fan speed, and underfloor heating temperature. Users can set the indoor temperature using traditional thermostats. When the thermostat detects that the ambient temperature has reached the user-set indoor temperature, it controls the indoor air conditioner to either pause or maintain its current operating state. However, when using traditional thermostats to monitor the temperature of home appliances, they only support temperature monitoring for appliances such as air conditioners and underfloor heating, and can only detect the ambient temperature around the thermostat. This limits the thermostat's ability to monitor the temperature of home appliances to the type and distance of the appliances, making it impossible to monitor abnormal temperature states of all home appliances in real time.
[0055] To address this, this application provides a temperature control device. Temperature sampling probes are deployed in all high-power devices and sockets indoors. The thermostat is communicatively connected to these probes. The thermostat acquires the operating temperatures of the high-power devices and sockets via these probes. Based on the real-time temperatures of these devices and sockets, the thermostat identifies any high-power devices or sockets with abnormal temperatures and feeds the monitoring results back to the user's mobile phone in real time. The user can control the power-off of these devices and sockets via their mobile phone, or the thermostat can actively control the power-off of devices and sockets with abnormal temperatures. The thermostat can also actively control an automatic fire extinguisher to extinguish any fires caused by these devices or sockets. This approach enriches the thermostat's functionality, expands its temperature detection range, and overcomes the limitations of traditional temperature detection.
[0056] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the display panel of an existing thermostat is shown below. Figure 1Existing thermostats primarily display the temperature monitoring results for air conditioners, fresh air systems, and underfloor heating, such as air conditioner temperature, fresh air fan speed, weather, indoor humidity, user-set room temperature, and underfloor heating temperature. Therefore, existing thermostats can only monitor the temperature of air conditioners, fresh air systems, and underfloor heating systems, and cannot monitor other household appliances, such as microwave ovens, refrigerators, and televisions. Furthermore, air conditioners, fresh air systems, and underfloor heating systems are typically located around the thermostat to allow it to sensitively sense their operating temperatures; existing thermostats cannot monitor the temperature of other household appliances located further away.
[0057] The temperature control system provided in the embodiments of this application will be explained in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0058] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a temperature control system provided in this application is shown below. Figure 2 The temperature control system 10 provided in this application embodiment includes: multiple high-power devices 101, multiple sockets 102, and a temperature controller 103.
[0059] Optionally, the high-power device 101 is used to indicate the home appliances installed in the user's room. The high-power device 101 can be a smart home appliance such as a refrigerator, microwave oven, television, or air conditioner. The socket 102 can be a smart socket with power detection and wireless communication functions, or it can be a regular socket. This application does not make any specific limitations on this.
[0060] Temperature sampling probes 104 are evenly distributed in each of the major power devices 101 and each socket 102, and each temperature sampling probe 104 is communicatively connected to the temperature controller 103.
[0061] Optionally, the temperature sampling probe 104 can be implemented by a temperature sampling circuit, and the temperature sampling probe 104 can be implemented by a thermistor, temperature sensor, NTC probe, infrared sensor, etc. This application does not make specific limitations in this regard.
[0062] Optionally, temperature sampling probes 104 are deployed in each of the high-power devices 101 and each of the sockets 102 in the room. Each temperature sampling probe 104 in the high-power devices 101 and each temperature sampling probe 104 in the sockets 102 is communicatively connected to a thermostat 103. The thermostat 103 obtains the real-time operating temperature of each high-power device 101 and each real-time operating temperature of each socket 102 via the temperature sampling probes 104. The temperature sampling probes 104 on the high-power devices 101 are used to collect the first temperature of the high-power devices 101, and the temperature sampling probes 104 on each socket 102 are used to collect the second temperature of the sockets 102.
[0063] Optionally, the actual operating temperature of the high-power device 101 can be monitored in real time via a temperature sampling probe 104 deployed in the high-power device 101. The first temperature is used to indicate the real-time operating temperature of each high-power device 101, such as the current operating temperature of an air conditioner being 30°C.
[0064] Optionally, the actual operating temperature of the socket 102 can be monitored in real time via a temperature sampling probe 104 deployed in the socket 102. The second temperature is used to indicate the real-time operating temperature of each socket 102, such as the current operating temperature of socket A in the kitchen being 10°C.
[0065] The temperature controller 103 is used to obtain the first temperature of each high-power device 101 and the second temperature of each socket 102 via each temperature sampling probe 104.
[0066] Optionally, the temperature controller 103 acquires the real-time operating temperature of each power device 101 and each socket 102 through the temperature sampling probe 104, so as to realize the abnormal temperature monitoring of each power device 101 and each socket 102.
[0067] The thermostat 103 sends a power-off command to the high-power device 101 and / or socket 102 where there is an abnormal temperature, based on the first temperature, the second temperature, the preset alarm temperature and the preset ignition temperature.
[0068] Optionally, the preset alarm temperature is an alarm temperature limit preset by the user in the temperature control system 10. When the actual operating temperature of the high-power device 101 reaches the preset alarm temperature, the temperature controller 103 issues a high-temperature warning message corresponding to the high-power device 101; when the actual operating temperature of the socket 102 reaches the preset alarm temperature, the temperature controller 103 issues a high-temperature warning message corresponding to the high-power device 101. The high-temperature warning message is used to warn of the risk of high or overheating of the high-power devices 101 and / or sockets 102. The preset alarm temperature can be 30℃, 45℃, 50℃, etc., and this application does not specifically limit it.
[0069] It is worth noting that the preset alarm temperature can be set separately for the operating safe temperature range of each power device 101 and each socket 102, or a uniform alarm temperature can be set. This application does not make any specific limitations on this.
[0070] Optionally, the preset ignition temperature is a value set by the user in the temperature control system 10. When the actual operating temperature of the high-power device 101 reaches the preset ignition temperature, the temperature controller 103 issues a combustion alarm message corresponding to the high-power device 101; when the actual operating temperature of the socket 102 reaches the preset ignition temperature, the temperature controller 103 issues a combustion alarm message corresponding to the socket 102. The combustion alarm message is used to warn that there is a risk of fire or that a fire has already occurred in the high-power devices 101 and / or the sockets 102. The preset ignition temperature can be 90℃, 100℃, 110℃, etc., and this application does not specifically limit it.
[0071] In addition, the preset ignition temperature can be set separately for the ignition temperature of each power device 101 and each socket 102, or a uniform ignition temperature can be set. This application does not make specific limitations on this.
[0072] It is worth noting that the preset ignition temperature is generally higher than the preset alarm temperature. When the actual operating temperature of the high-power device 101 or the socket 102 reaches the preset alarm temperature, the thermostat 103 can cool down the device by cutting off the power to the device 101 and / or the socket 102. However, when the actual operating temperature of the high-power device 101 or the socket 102 reaches the preset ignition temperature, the thermostat 103 not only needs to cut off the power to the device 101 and / or the socket 102, but also needs to extinguish the fire in the area where the device 101 and / or the socket 102 is located.
[0073] It is worth noting that the indoor high-power device 101 and the socket 102 may both be at risk of overheating or causing a fire, or they may not be at risk of overheating or causing a fire at the same time. This application does not make any specific limitations on this.
[0074] Optionally, when the first temperature of the high-power device 101 reaches the preset alarm temperature or the preset ignition temperature, the high-power device 101 is considered to have a temperature abnormality; when the second temperature of the socket 102 reaches the preset alarm temperature or the preset ignition temperature, the socket 102 is considered to have a temperature abnormality.
[0075] It is worth noting that the communication method between the thermostat 103 and the indoor high-power devices 101 and socket 102 can be either power line communication or 485 wireless communication. This application does not make any specific limitation on this.
[0076] In this embodiment, temperature sampling probes are deployed in each of the high-power devices and sockets in the room, and each probe is communicatively connected to the thermostat. The thermostat obtains the first temperature of each high-power device in real time through the probes and the second temperature of each socket in real time through the probes. Based on the first temperature, preset alarm temperature, and preset ignition temperature of each high-power device, the thermostat determines whether there is a temperature anomaly in the device. Based on the second temperature, preset alarm temperature, and preset ignition temperature of each socket, the thermostat determines whether there is a temperature anomaly in the socket. The thermostat then takes corresponding cooling measures for the high-power devices and / or sockets with temperature anomalies. Therefore, the thermostat can not only monitor smart appliances in its immediate vicinity but also monitor other smart appliances at greater distances in real time through the temperature sampling probes, and take corresponding security measures based on the temperature monitoring results. This enriches the thermostat's functionality, expands its temperature detection range, overcomes its temperature detection limitations, and improves the safety and reliability of the temperature control system.
[0077] In one alternative implementation, see [link to implementation details]. Figure 3 The temperature control system 10 provided in this application embodiment also includes an automatic fire extinguishing system 105.
[0078] The automatic fire extinguishing system 105 is communicatively connected to the thermostat 103, which is used to control the automatic fire extinguishing system 105 to extinguish fires on high-power devices 101 and / or sockets 102 that have abnormal temperatures.
[0079] Optionally, the automatic fire extinguishing system 105 is used to indicate the automatic fire extinguishing system installed in the user's room. The automatic fire extinguishing system 105 is communicatively connected to the thermostat 103. When the thermostat 103 detects the presence of a high-power device 101 and / or a socket 102 that could cause a fire in the room, the thermostat 103 controls the automatic fire extinguishing system 105 to extinguish the fire at the source area. The source area is used to indicate the location of the high-power device 101 that has reached the preset ignition temperature and / or the location of the socket 102 that has reached the preset ignition temperature. The automatic fire extinguishing system 105 can extinguish and cool all combustibles in the area indicated by the thermostat 103, thereby reducing economic losses for the user.
[0080] In one alternative implementation, see [link to implementation details]. Figure 4 The temperature controller 103 in the temperature control system 10 provided in this application embodiment includes: a main control unit 1031, a first temperature control unit 1032 and a second temperature control unit 1033.
[0081] Optionally, the main control unit 1031 is used to implement the data processing function of the temperature controller 103. The main control unit 1031 is equivalent to the brain of the temperature controller 103. The main control unit 1031 can be implemented by a microcontroller, microcontroller, control chip, etc. This application does not make specific limitations on this.
[0082] Optionally, both the first temperature control unit 1032 and the second temperature control unit 1033 are used to indicate control commands issued by the main control unit 1031. The first temperature control unit 1032 is used to execute one power-off cooling control command, and the second temperature control unit 1033 is used to execute another power-off cooling control command. The first temperature control unit 1032 and the second temperature control unit 1033 can be implemented by switches, valves, etc., and this application does not specifically limit their implementation.
[0083] The main control unit 1031 is communicatively connected to the temperature sampling probes 104 in each of the high-power devices 101 and the temperature sampling probes 104 in each socket 102. The main control unit 1031 is also connected to the control terminals of the first temperature control unit 1032 and the second temperature control unit 1033. The first temperature control unit 1032 is also connected to the high-power devices 101, and the second temperature control unit 1033 is also connected to the automatic fire extinguishing system 105.
[0084] Optionally, the thermostat 103 acquires the first temperature sampled by the temperature sampling probe 104 in each of the major power devices 101 via the main control unit 1031. At the same time, the thermostat 103 acquires the second temperature sampled by the temperature sampling probe 104 in each socket 102 via the main control unit 1031. Based on the first temperature of each of the major power devices 101, the preset alarm temperature, and the preset ignition temperature, the main control unit 1031 determines which of the major power devices 101 has an abnormal temperature. Based on the second temperature of each socket 102, the preset alarm temperature, and the preset ignition temperature, the main control unit 1031 determines which of the sockets 102 has an abnormal temperature.
[0085] Optionally, the main control unit 1031 controls the operation of the first temperature control unit 1032 and the second temperature control unit 1033 based on the abnormal temperature conditions of the high-power devices 101 and the sockets 102. The first temperature control unit 1032 controls the power-off of the high-power devices 101 with abnormal temperatures, and the second temperature control unit 1033 controls the automatic fire extinguishing system 105 to extinguish fires in the areas where the high-power devices 101 and / or the sockets 102 with abnormal temperatures are located.
[0086] The main control unit 1031 is used to control the first temperature control unit 1032 to cut off the power to the high-power device 101 that has an abnormal temperature.
[0087] Optionally, when the main control unit 1031 determines that there is an overheated or overheated high-power device 101 in the indoor high-power device 101, that is, when the main control unit 1031 determines that the first temperature of the high-power device 101 in the indoor high-power device 101 is higher than the preset alarm temperature, the main control unit 1031 controls the first temperature control unit 1032 to de-energize the high-power device 101 whose first temperature is higher than the preset alarm temperature at the current moment.
[0088] The main control unit 1031 is used to control the second temperature control unit 1033 to control the automatic fire extinguishing system 105 to extinguish the fire on the high-power device 101 and / or socket 102 that have abnormal temperature.
[0089] Optionally, when the main control unit 1031 determines that there is a high-power device 101 in the indoor high-power device 101 that has reached the ignition temperature, and / or determines that there is a socket 102 in the indoor socket 102 that has reached the ignition point, that is, when the main control unit 1031 determines that the first temperature of the high-power device 101 in the indoor high-power device 101 is higher than the preset ignition point temperature, and / or the second temperature of the socket 102 in the indoor socket 102 is higher than the preset ignition point temperature, then the main control unit 1031 controls the second temperature control unit 1033 to drive the automatic fire extinguishing system 105, so that the automatic fire extinguishing system 105 extinguishes the fire in the area where the high-power device 101 with the first temperature higher than the preset ignition point temperature is located and / or the area where the socket 102 with the second temperature higher than the preset ignition point temperature is located.
[0090] In one alternative implementation, see [link to implementation details]. Figure 5 The first temperature control unit 1032 in the temperature controller 103 of the temperature control system 10 provided in this application embodiment includes: a first temperature control valve 321.

The main control unit 1031 is used to control the opening and closing of the first temperature control valve 321.
[0092] Optionally, the first temperature control unit 1032 is implemented by the first temperature control valve 321.
