Fig. 4-12 is exemplified with several embodiments of the door bell and button system including electrical switch assembly, electricity Sub-switches set piece installing is used for stoping and/or allow electric power to enter electronic clock 412 (such as, digital clock). In example shown in the diagram, door bell and button system 400 includes security system 202 (such as, electricity Cervical orifice of uterus bell), security system 202 includes photographing unit and button.Photographing unit can may be structured to Vision-based detection visiting person.Similarly, button can may be configured such that visiting person can make electricity Secondary clock 412 sounding.By this way, electronic clock 412 can include speaker, this speaker May be structured to press the button of security system 202 and sound of giving notice in response to visiting person 430。

Door bell and button system 400 can also include being electrically coupled to security system 202 and transformator 424 Electrical switch assembly 410.Similarly, electronic clock 412 may be electrically coupled to electronic switch set Piece installing 410.In many examples, electronic clock 412 can also be mechanically coupled to electronic cutting Close assembly 410.

It will be appreciated that electrical switch assembly 410 can also be referred to as printed circuit board (PCB).Printing Circuit board could be configured such that electronic clock 412 can be based on digital music data from speaker Give notice sound 430.

With reference to Fig. 5-6,8-9 and 11-12, electrical switch assembly 410 can define the first shape State and the second state.First state can be sent out less than first threshold in response to the first electric power 450 Raw.In the first state, electrical switch assembly 410 can stop the first electric power 450 to pass through Electronic clock 412, the sound 430 so electronic clock 412 is not given notice.In other words, printing electricity Road plate may be constructed such that to stop and enters electronic clock 412 less than the first electric power 450 of first threshold. In this, electrical switch assembly 410 can allow the first electric power 450 from security system 202 It is delivered to transformator 424 by electrical switch assembly 410, and does not enter electronic clock 412.Should It is realized that first threshold can be to activate electronic clock 412 to give notice the electricity needed for sound 430 Strength.

Additionally, the second state can occur more than first threshold in response to the second electric power 452. In the second condition, electrical switch assembly 410 can allow the second electric power 452 to pass through electronics Clock 412, the sound 430 so that electronic clock 412 is given notice.In other words, electronic switch set Piece installing 410 or printed circuit board (PCB) may be constructed such that and allow the second electric power more than first threshold 452 enter electronic clock 412.Second electric power 452 can make electronic clock 412 give notice sound 430。

Referring now to Fig. 5, switches set piece installing 410 can be placed on the inside of housing 415, Housing 415 can also comprise electronic clock 412.Switches set piece installing 410 and electronic clock 412 are permissible It is mechanically coupled to housing 415.Housing 415 can be the plastic housing with hollow interior portion Body, this hollow interior portion comprises electronic clock 412 and switches set piece installing 410.At least one spiral shell Switches set piece installing can be mechanically coupled to the inside of housing 415 by nail.

Electronic door bell (such as, security system 202) may be located at the outside of housing 415.? In some embodiments, electronic door bell is placed on the outside (shown in Fig. 3) of building 300, And housing 415 is placed on the inside of building 300.Electronic door bell and housing 415 can be with couplings Close the wall of building 300.Electronic door bell can be on the position remote relative to housing 415 (such as, doorbell is positioned at the outside of building, and plastic casing 415 is positioned at the inside of building). Even if when doorbell is located relative on the position that housing 415 is remote, doorbell, electronic clock 412 and Switches set piece installing 410 can also all be configured to be electrically coupled to same building thing power supply 420.

Some embodiments can realize performing route the first electric power 450 and the opening of the second electric power 452 Close.Such as, as in figures 7-9, electrical switch assembly 410 can include the first electronics Switch 414a and be electrically coupled to the second electrical switch 416a of the first electrical switch 414a.The One switch 414a and second switch 416a can be in response to receiving the first electric power 450a or second Electric power 452a performs different functions.Such as, as shown in Figure 8, in response to the first electric power 450a, the first electrical switch 414a can allow the first electric power 450a to flow through electrical switch assembling Part 410a, and the first electric power 450a can not be allowed to flow through electronic clock 412.Similarly, ring Should be in the first electric power 450a, the second electrical switch 416a does not allow the first electric power 450a to flow through electricity Secondary clock 412.Additionally, as shown in Figure 9, in response to the second electric power 452a, the first electronic cutting Closing 414a and the second electrical switch 416a allows the second electric power 452a to flow through electronic clock 412.

Being further illustrated as in Fig. 8-9, the first switch 414a and second switch 416a can be by It is configured to position based on each of which and realizes different operations.Such as, as shown in Figure 8, When the first electrical switch 414a is in primary importance, the first electrical switch 414a can will become Depressor 424 and security system 202 electrically connect.Similarly, as shown in Figure 9, when the first electricity When son switch 414a is in the second position, the first electrical switch 414a can be by transformator 424 Electrically connect with electronic clock 412.

In certain embodiments, the place of the first switch 414a and second switch 416a can be anti- Come over, in this puts, when the first electrical switch 414a is in the second position, the first electronics Electronic clock 412 and security system 202 can be electrically connected by switch 414a.It will be appreciated, however, that Even if in contrary structure, the first switch 414a and second switch 416a can also be effectively Realize and shown in Fig. 8 and 9 and about Fig. 8 and 9 description the identical target of target.

With reference to Fig. 8, when the second electrical switch 416a is on open position, the second electrical switch 416a can be by electrically disconnected to security system 202 and electronic clock 412.As the second electrical switch 416a Time on open position, the second electrical switch 416a does not allow the first electric power 450a to flow to electronics Clock 412.As shown in Figure 9, when the second electrical switch 416a is in make position, second Security system 202 and electronic clock 412 can be electrically connected by electrical switch 416a.In this position On, the second electrical switch 416a can allow the first electric power 450a to flow to electronic clock 412.With Sample ground, in certain embodiments, when the second electrical switch 416a is on open position, second Electrical switch 416a can be by electrically disconnected to transformator 424 and electronic clock 412.Therefore, when second When electrical switch 416a is in make position, the second electrical switch 416a can be by transformator 424 Electrically connect with electronic clock 412.

What another switched can be depended in the position of the first switch 414a and second switch 416a Position.Such as, as shown in Figure 8, when the first electrical switch 414a is in primary importance, Second electrical switch 416a can be on open position.Additionally, as shown in Figure 9, when first When electrical switch 414a is in the second position, the second electrical switch 416a can be in make position On.

Although some embodiments can realize two electrical switches, however, it will be appreciated that can be real The now any amount of electrical switch fewer of more than two.Such as, as illustrated in figs. 10-12, Electrical switch assembly 410b can include the first electrical switch 414b, be electrically connected to the first electricity Son switchs the second electrical switch 416b of 414b and is electrically connected to the first electrical switch 414b The 3rd electrical switch 418b with the second electrical switch 416b.
