Description

ELECTRIC DOOR CONTROLLER FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to an electric door controller, in particular to an electric door

controller that provides historical operation information of an electric door or allows modification

by on site construction personnel.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Conventional electric door controller is not only composed of switch circuits and has been

improved to include a programmable controller to control an electric door to be opened and

closed. Conventional versatile electric door controllers can also accept networking control from

an external device. However, in the conventional technique, after the electric door controller

leaves from a factory, any control program stored in the programmable controller is unable to be

changed, that is, the electric door only continues to work according to current settings. To modify

working settings of the electric door, the electric door controller needs to be removed and handed

over to the original factory for modification. With this problem, construction personnel need to

postpone the installation when arriving at the site for construction if it is found that the work

settings of the conventional electric door are not suitable for use. If the modified electric door

controller is still not suitable for use, the electric door would be opened for a long time until the

electric door controller is completely installed. The electric door is an important doorway, and its

dysfunction not only affects the entry and exit of occupants themselves, but also threatens living

safety of the occupants.

[0003] In addition to the foregoing, the conventional electric door can be implemented in

combination with at least one sensor, wherein the sensor detects an environmental state of the electric door or a working state of a device associated with the electric door, such as a state of a driving motor. The conventional electric door controller is connected to the sensor and receives a signal transmitted by the sensor, and the signal is used to compensate only for a single control or to confirm environment of which the electric door is located, but the meaning of the signal is not recorded. In this way, when the construction personnel encounter the failure of the electric door, they can only repair this electric door through previous personal experiences, such that the problem of incorrect maintenance is prone to occur.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0036] The detailed description and technical content of the invention are described as follows

in conjunction with the drawings:

[0037] Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the invention provides an electric door controller 20,

which controls an electric door 30 to be opened and closed. The electric door 30 may be an electric rolling door, an electric gate, etc. that are electrical driven. The electric door controller 20 is configured on a wall 40 of a building adjacent to the electric door 30. The electric door controller is connected to at least one electric door association device 31 which may be a driving motor

311 or a sensor 312. The sensor 312 may be a proximity sensor, a current sensor or an

environmental sensor according to implementation requirements.

[0038] The electric door controller 20 includes an interface circuit 21, and a control circuit 22

connected to the interface circuit 21. The interface circuit 21 is provided on a circuit board 23

assembled in the electric door controller 20. The interface circuit 21 is provided for allowing an

external device 50 to access in a wired manner or a wireless manner. The external device 50 may

be a handheld electronic device, a smartphone or a laptop, etc. The external device 50 is

preferably selected to be a device that communicates with the interface circuit 21. In one

embodiment, the interface circuit 21 includes at least one of a group consisting of a universal

serial bus, a parallel port and a serial port, through which the external device 50 is accessed in a

wired manner. In one embodiment, the interface circuit 21 includes at least one of a group

consisting of a Bluetooth module, and a near-field communication module (NFC), through which

the external device 50 is accessed in a wireless manner. Further, in one embodiment, the interface

circuit 21 provides both wired and wireless communicating modes. A user of the external device

selects a manner of communication with the interface circuit 21 according to the

communication capability or implementation convenience of the external device 50.

[0039] In one embodiment, the control circuit 22 is provided together with the interface circuit

21 on the same circuit board 23. The control circuit 22 includes a logic operation chip and at least

one electronic component matched with the logic operation chip. The logic operation chip

operates an embedded system. In one embodiment, the control circuit 22 includes at least one

non-volatile random access memory. Further, the at least one non-volatile random access memory may be an electrically-erasable programmable read-only nemory (EEPROM), a flash memory, a solid-state storage, etc. The control circuit 22, as a core of the electric door controller 20, functions as a main controller for opening and closing of the electric door 30. The at least one non-volatile random access memory included in the control circuit 22 memorizes a plurality of operation programs, a current operation setting information used to control the operation of the at least one electric door association device 31, and historical operation information associated with the at least one electric door association device 31, etc. The control circuit 22 is connected to the interface circuit 21. The control circuit 22 accepts an access initiated by the external device 50 and transmitted by the interface circuit 21. The control circuit 22 compares originator information contained in the access based on at least one authentication program memorized in the memory.

The at least one authentication program is performed based on at least one permission data

memorized by the control circuit 22. The control circuit 22 operates one of the following

programs when the access is verified: providing at least one of the current operation setting

information and a historical operation information which are correspond to at least one electric

door association device 31 based on a request obtained from the external device 50 of the interface

circuit 21 (an operating state I); and modifying the current operation setting information based on

an operation setting modification information obtained from the external device 50 of the

interface circuit 21, wherein the operation setting modification information is associated with the

at least one electric door association device 31 (an operating state II).

[0040] For a description of the operating state I, the interface circuit 21 reads at least one of the

current operation setting information and the historical operation information of the at least one

electric door association device 31 based on description of the request. When the external device

receives the current operation setting information returned by the control circuit 22 from the

interface circuit 21, the current operation setting information is displayed, so that an operator

understands the operation of the electric door 30 through the current operation setting information. When the external device 50 receives the historical operation information returned by the control circuit 22 from the interface circuit 21, the historical operation information is displayed, so that the operator quickly understands usage habits and usage frequency of an owner of the electric door 30, which are both taken as the basis for the adjustment or maintenance of the electric door 30.

[0041] For a description of the operation state II, the interface circuit 21 obtains the operation

setting modification information and then provides the operation setting modification information

to the control circuit 22. The control circuit 22 rewrites the current operation setting information

memorized in the at least one non-volatile random access memory, and the at least one electric

door association device 31 later operates based on the rewritten current operation setting

information. Accordingly, the problem that on-site operator cannot adjust the conventional

electric door only provided with a read-only memory is solved. In the case of the driving motor

311 driving the electric door 30, the current operation setting information is used to define the

driving motor 311. Instead of operating at the same speed in a single operation time, the driving

motor 311 operates at different speeds in different time periods in a single operation time.

Therefore, the opening and closing of the electric door 30 is no longer limited to the previous

single speed, but be adjusted to meet the owner's needs.

[0042] In one embodiment, when the interface circuit 21 is connected to the external device 50,

the control circuit 22 provides information to the external device 50 through the interface circuit

21, such that the external device 50 is used without further format conversion. In another

embodiment, when the interface circuit 21 is connected to the external device 50, the control

circuit 22 provides information to the external device 50 through the interface circuit 21, such that

the external device 50 only interprets data packets generated in the communication process, and

decoded information is used without need to perform format conversion. In one embodiment, the logic operation chip is designed in a form of a database to control memory information of the at least one non-volatile random access memory.

[0043] In one embodiment, in order to increase the communication security between the

electric door controller 20 and the external device 50, the control circuit 22 controls the current

operation setting information or the historical operation information being published to the

external device 50 in a form of ciphertext. Thus, it prevented from people having criminal

intension to steal information and to learn the owner's usage habits. In addition, communications

between the electric door controller 20 and the external device 50 are encrypted via a transport

layer security protocol (TLS). In one embodiment, the degree of encryption of the Transport

Layer Security protocol is 128 bits.

[0044] Referring to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, in one embodiment, the electric door controller 20

includes a power supply module 24. The power supply module 24 is powered by an external

power source and connects to the control circuit 22 and the at least one electric door association

device 31. After the power supply module 24 is connected to the external power, a power level of

the external power is converted into a power level required to be used in components connected to

the power supply module 24. Further, the power supply module 24 of the invention includes a

plurality of power conversion portions, in response to the power demands of the components

connected to the power supply module 24. The plurality of power conversion portions may be a

power transformer 241, a step-down circuit, or a step-up circuit, etc. The plurality of power

conversion portions are all provided on the circuit board 23 or independently disposed. Further,

the electric door controller 20 includes a housing 26. The housing 26 includes an accommodating

space 261 in which the circuit board 23 and the power transformer 241 are arranged. For example,

the circuit board 23 is located at the upper part of the accommodating space 261, and the power

transformer 241 is located at the lower part of the accommodating space 261.

[0045] Referring to Fig. 4, in one embodiment, the electric door controller 20 includes a

visualized information providing module 25. The visualized information providing module 25 is

connected to the control circuit 22. The visualized information providing module obtains a signal

from the control circuit 22 and displays the signal. The visualized information providing module

is a plurality of light-emitting elements of different colors, and presents states of the electric

door controller 20 and the electric door 30 through different patterns. The visualized information

providing module 25 may be a display screen 251 (as shown in Fig.5) or at least one light-emitting

element 252 (as shown in Fig.6).

[0046] Referring to Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4, and Fig. 5, the electric door controller 20 of the

invention also retains the original function of controlling the electric door 30 to be opened and

closed by a user using a remote controller or a plurality of switches 27 exposed on the housing 26

of the electric door controller 20. The remote controller communicates with a receiver provided

on the circuit board 23. The plurality of switches 27 may be electrically connected to the control

circuit 22 through the circuit board 23. Each of the plurality of switches 27 sends an electrical

signal to the control circuit 22 when operated, and the control circuit 22 performs corresponding

control, such as opening, suspending or closing based on the received electrical signal.

[0047] In one embodiment, the control circuit 22 is configured to operate a program that

adjusts the current operation setting information based on an autonomous correction time

information. The autonomous correction time information is defined as a time period, such as

each week, each month, etc. The control circuit 22 operates the program when the time period is

reached. However, in this program, the control circuit 22 adjusts the current operation setting

information according to the historical operation information, so that the electric door controller

is more compatible with the owner's use requirements. In addition, in one embodiment, the

logical operation chip of the control circuit 22 is configured to operate an electric door state analysis program. The electric door state analysis program analyses a state of the electric door 30 based on at least one of the followings: a state signal 313 returned from the at least one electric door association device 31, and the historical operation information memorized in the at least one non-volatile random access memory. The results generated by the evaluation are transmitted back and are recorded to the historical operation information, and the electric door state analysis program includes a subprogram publishing maintenance information. Once the subprogram judges that a condition is matched, a maintenance prompt is generated. However, there are many implementation schemes for the maintenance prompt, and there are many technical solutions that convey a warning message to the owner of the electric door 30, which will not be limited herein.

[0048] In another embodiment, referring to Fig. 7, the electric door controller 20 of the

invention further includes an information publishing module 32. The interface circuit 21 serves as

an interface for the information publishing module 32. In other words, the interface circuit 21 is

provided with the information publishing module 32 as a portion of the interface circuit 21. In

addition, the information publishing module 32 is connected to the at least one electric door

association device 31. The information publishing module 32 receives the state signal 313

transmitted from the electric door association device 31. When the state signal 313 is not a digital

signal, it is translated by the information publishing module 32, so that the state signal 313 is

converted into a digital signal for subsequent operations. The information publishing module 32

publishes at least one electric door state message 321 based on the state signal 313. The electric

door state message 321 is published during at least one of the following time points: time of

completing the opening and closing of the electric door 30, and a set time of publishment. In

addition, each of the electric door state messages 321 includes the state signal 313 provided by the

at least one electric door association device 31 at the current time point, or the state signal 313

provided by a component that is performing a sensing operation in the at least one electric door

association device 31 at the current time point. In this embodiment, when the logical operation chip of the control circuit 22 is configured to operate the electric door state analysis program, the electric door state analysis program is performed based on the electric door state message 321 and the historical operation information.

[0049] In order to identify the electric door 30, the information publishing module 32 allows

the at least one electric door state message 321 including an identification content when

publishing the electric door state message 321. The identification content is a main factor

identifying the at least one electric door association device 31. The identification content of the

electric door 30 is different from that of other electric doors. The identification content is a media

access control address (MAC) of the information publishing module 32. Referring to Fig. 4 and

Fig. 8, the interface circuit 21 allows an arithmetic device 60 to be connected to the control circuit

22 via Internet 70. The control circuit 22 transmits the state signal 313 returned by at least one

electric door association device 31 to the arithmetic device 60. The identification content may be a

unique identification code recorded on the arithmetic device 60, and the identification code is

randomly generated by a management unit or an engineering unit of the electric door 30 through

human or machine.

[0050] Referring to Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 5, Fig. 6, Fig. 7, and Fig. 8, the arithmetic device

pre-stores an arithmetic program that operates related management operations. The arithmetic

program is compiled in computer language. Also, the arithmetic device 60 may be a server or a

desktop computer. The arithmetic device 60 is disposed remotely from the electric door controller

and serves as a data receiver of the electric door controller 20 in addition to local operations.

The arithmetic device 60 directly receives at least one electric door state message 321 published

by the data publishing module 32 via the Internet 70. The arithmetic device 60 stores at least one

judgment condition therein and evaluates and analyzes whether the electric door 30 is damaged or

needs to be repaired based on the at least one judgment condition. Once the analysis result is

"damaged" or "to be repaired", the arithmetic device 60 provides a maintenance notification

message to the management unit or the engineering unit. The type of the maintenance notification

message is selected according to implementation. For example, the maintenance notification

message may be displayed in texts or graphics on a display module 61 included in the arithmetic

device 60, or transmitted to an electronic device held by the management unit or the engineering

unit via the Internet 70.

[0051] In another embodiment, the arithmetic device 60 directly receives an evaluation result

of the control circuit 22 evaluating the electric door 30. The control circuit 22 performs the

electric door state analysis program to generate an electric door evaluation result. The control

circuit 22 transmits the electric door evaluation result to the arithmetic device 60 via the interface

circuit 21. The arithmetic device 60 reads the content that descried the electric door result data.

The arithmetic device 60 decides whether to publish the maintenance notification message.

[0052] Further, the state evaluation of the electric door 30 described herein is set based on the

type and specification of the electric door 30. For example, the control circuit 22 and the

arithmetic device 60 performs a comparison on an average operating current value of the driving

motor 311 over a period of time with a set average operating current value. It will be considered

normal if the average operating current value of the driving motor conforms to or is slightly less

than the set average operating current value. It will be considered to be in need of repair if the

average operating current value of the driving motor is greater than the set average operating

current value by one percentage range. The foregoing content only takes a single judgment factor

as an example, but in practice, it is not limited to a single judgment factor, and is logically judged

by composite factors. Further, in order to avoid misjudgment caused by an abnormality at a single

time point, the control circuit 22 and the arithmetic device 60 may also perform an integrated evaluation according to the plurality of electric door state messages 321 received in a time interval.

[0053] In one embodiment, the arithmetic device 60 manages the plurality of electric doors 30

at the same time, that is, the arithmetic device 60 connects with the plurality of electric door

controllers 20 at the same time. Further, the arithmetic device 60 operates a monitoring display

program, wherein the monitoring display program displays the states of the plurality of electric

doors 30 in texts or graphics on the display module 61 based on the state evaluation results of the

arithmetic device 60 and the control circuit 22 to the managed electric doors 30. Referring to Fig.

9, when the results are displayed in texts, each of the plurality of the electric doors 30 may be

arranged and displayed one by one according to a logical rule, wherein the logic rule may be a risk

of damage, a region or a time sequence of receiving messages. Referring to Fig. 10, when the state

evaluation results are displayed in graphics, the electric doors are shown in a map in addition to

texts being arranged and displayed one by one based on the logic rule. The state of each of the

plurality of electric doors 30 is recorded on the map.

[0054] In summary, the electric door controller 20 of the invention allows the arithmetic device

to be connected to the control circuit 22 through the interface circuit 21. Therefore, through the

long-term state management of the electric doors 30, the potential risk of failure of the electric

doors 30 is found in advance, thereby reducing the chance of sudden failure of the electric doors

30. In addition, the arithmetic device 60 further assists the engineering unit or the management

unit to schedule the maintenance time of the electric door 30 in advance, thereby simplifying the

problem of dispatching workers.
