[0023] (Example 1)

[0024] See Figure 1-2 An automated control curtain includes an upper beam 5, a lower beam 6, a curtain fabric 7, a roller tube, and a tubular motor 4. The roller tube is rotatably mounted in the upper beam 5. The curtain fabric 7 is connected at both ends to the roller tube and the lower beam 6, respectively. The tubular motor 4 drives the roller tube to rotate. The tubular motor 4 includes a tubular motor cylinder and a controller 1, a drive device 2, and an acceleration measuring device 3 disposed within the tubular motor cylinder. Both the drive device 2 and the acceleration measuring device 3 are electrically connected to the controller 1. The acceleration measuring device 3 measures the acceleration of the tubular motor 4 and sends the data signal to the controller 1. When the acceleration changes, the controller 1 controls the operation of the drive device 2 based on the data signal sent by the acceleration measuring device 3. In this embodiment, the acceleration measuring device 3 is a gyroscope.

[0025] The tubular motor 4 also includes a wireless communication module, which is electrically connected to the controller 1. The wireless communication module communicates with an external remote control, allowing the curtains to be controlled via the remote.

[0026] A tubular motor 4 is located at one end inside the winding tube. An end seat is located at the end of the tubular motor, and an end cap is located at the end of the upper beam 5. The end seat has a slot, and the end cap has a retaining strip; the slot and retaining strip engage. A rotating wheel 8 is located at the output end of the drive device 2. The rotating wheel 8 is circumferentially fixed to the winding tube. A groove is provided on the rotating wheel 8, and a groove is also provided on the winding tube. The groove on the winding tube is used to fix the curtain fabric 7, and the groove on the rotating wheel 8 matches the groove on the winding tube. When the drive device 2 operates, it can drive the winding tube to rotate relative to the upper beam 6, thereby raising and lowering the curtain fabric 7.

[0027] The control method for the automated control curtains in this embodiment is as follows:

[0028] 1. During the downward movement of the lower beam 6 driven by the tubular motor 4:

[0029] Without human intervention: Lower beam 6 continues to descend until it reaches the lower limit.

[0030] Human intervention occurs when the curtain 7 or lower beam 6 is pulled downwards again. The gyroscope detects downward acceleration again, and controller 1 takes over the motor and prevents the downward movement, maintaining a constant downward speed. When the curtain 7 or lower beam 6 is lifted, the gyroscope detects upward acceleration, and controller 1 takes over the motor and stops it from running.

[0031] 2. During the upward movement of the lower beam 6 driven by the tubular motor 4:

[0032] Without human intervention: Lower beam 6 continues to rise until it reaches its upper limit.

[0033] In the event of human intervention: when the curtain 7 or lower beam 6 is lifted upwards again, the gyroscope detects upward acceleration again, the controller 1 takes over the motor and prevents the upward movement, maintaining a constant upward speed. When the curtain 7 or lower beam 6 is pulled downwards, the gyroscope detects downward acceleration, the controller 1 takes over the motor and stops it from running.

[0034] 3. When the tubular motor is stationary:

[0035] No human intervention: The motor remains stationary.

[0036] With human intervention: When the curtain 7 or the lower beam 6 is pulled downwards, the gyroscope senses the downward acceleration, and the controller 1 takes over the motor and controls it to descend at a constant speed. When the curtain 7 or the lower beam 6 is lifted, the gyroscope senses the upward acceleration, and the controller 1 takes over the motor and controls it to ascend at a constant speed.

[0037] This invention combines a gyroscope with a tubular motor to achieve both manual and electric control modes. The gyroscope senses the acceleration of the tubular motor to intelligently perceive the user's operational intentions and adjusts the motor's operating state according to different acceleration signals, improving the flexibility and convenience of user operation.

[0038] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
