Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
First, a method of using an air conditioner according to the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1, and fig. 1 shows a flowchart of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method of the present invention includes at least steps S101 to S104.
Step S101, the mobile terminal sends a service request to the server.
The service request includes equipment information of the air conditioning equipment. The device information includes, for example, one or a combination of two or more of UUID, MAC, and IP address of the air conditioner. The service request may specifically be a payment request. And after receiving the payment request, the server returns a payment page to the mobile terminal according to the equipment information, and the mobile terminal pays the use cost of the air conditioning equipment to the server based on the payment page. Optionally, the service request further includes the usage duration information, for example, as shown in fig. 8a, the service request includes the device ID and the purchase hour (i.e., the usage duration information). The mobile terminal firstly requests a server to select a page, and selects the use time (purchase hour); the server returns a selection page, and after the user selects the use time on the page, the mobile terminal sends a service request to the server, wherein the service request comprises the equipment information and the use time (purchase hour). And the server returns a payment page to the server after receiving the information, wherein the payment page specifically comprises the use fee information, namely the use fee required to be paid by using the air conditioning equipment determined according to the use time. The payment page may further include a payment type, a service type, and/or a consumption type. And the mobile terminal displays the payment page after receiving the payment page, and the user pays corresponding use cost to the server in the payment page according to the use cost information.
In a specific embodiment, the mobile terminal sends the service request to the server by scanning a two-dimensional code. For example, a user sends a payment request at a mobile phone end by scanning a two-dimensional code using an air conditioner control client (APP) or a mobile payment Application (APP), wherein the two-dimensional code can be attached to air conditioning equipment to be used, and the two-dimensional code information comprises equipment information; after the user uses the mobile terminal to scan the code, the user requests the server for selecting the page, the server returns the selected page, after the user selects the use time of the page, the mobile terminal sends a service request, such as a payment request, to the server, the server returns the payment page after receiving the payment request, and the user carries out payment.
And step S102, after receiving the service request, the server extracts the equipment information, inquires a verification code corresponding to the equipment information, returns the verification code to the mobile terminal, and inputs the verification code in an air conditioner remote controller by a user.
The service request includes equipment information of the air conditioning equipment. After receiving the service request (for example, the payment request), the server extracts the device information therein, queries the verification code corresponding to the device information (specifically, the verification code may be a verification code allocated to the device in advance), and returns the verification code to the mobile terminal. For example, after the user finishes payment through the mobile terminal, the server returns a verification code to the mobile terminal through the payment page, and the user inputs the verification code in the remote controller according to the verification code to be paired with the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner is controlled. The verification code comprises: device ID, password field, and/or duration of use information (e.g., purchase hour information). As shown in fig. 8 b. Optionally, the server queries the verification code corresponding to the device information through a pre-stored lookup table, where the lookup table includes the device information and the verification code corresponding thereto.
Optionally, when receiving a service request of a user, the server judges the current state of the corresponding air conditioning equipment according to the equipment information; and if the air conditioner is in the online state, updating the verification code stored locally by the air conditioner. If the air conditioner is off-line, the verification code cannot be updated, so that when the air conditioner is off-line, the server updates a batch of verification codes for the air conditioner, wherein the batch of verification codes is used for being available when the air conditioner is off-line, therefore, if the air conditioner is in an on-line state, the verification codes stored locally in the air conditioner are updated, the verification codes are returned to the user, and if the air conditioner is off-line, the verification codes can be directly returned to the user (the mobile terminal).
And S103, the air conditioner remote controller receives the verification code input by the user, generates a use code according to the verification code and sends the use code to the air conditioning equipment.
After receiving the verification code input by the user, the remote controller generates a use code according to the verification code, where the use code specifically includes: the verification code, the remote controller control code and the end check code. For example, the air conditioner remote controller supports digital verification input or key multiplexing and other modes for inputting verification codes. The remote controller adds the verification code input by the user into the code sending section to form a new code, the format of the code can be changed dynamically, and the new code forming mode (shown in figure 8c, the code sending mode of the remote controller) comprises the verification code, the remote controller control code and the end check code, and the new code is sent to the air conditioner.
And step S104, the air conditioning equipment receives the use code, verifies the use code and starts the air conditioning equipment after the verification is passed.
Before the use code is verified, the air conditioning equipment decodes the use code according to a preset decoding mode, wherein the preset decoding mode, specifically, a decoding mode negotiated in advance, can be stored in the air conditioning equipment in advance, or a remote controller sends the preset decoding mode to the air conditioning equipment. And the server decodes the use code to obtain a three-segment code, wherein the first segment is a verification code, the second segment is a control code, and the third segment is an end check code. The air conditioning equipment is provided with a storage area for storing the verification code, and the storage area comprises an unused sub storage area and a used sub storage area; the air conditioner specifically comprises the following steps of: and inquiring whether the verification code in the received use code is in the unused sub storage area, and if so, checking to be passed.
The verification code which is used and the service time (the use time selected by the user) is expired is stored in the used sub-storage area, and is used in combination with the unused sub-storage area to judge whether the verification simultaneously occurs in the two sub-storage areas or not, and can be used for counting whether the verification code used by the equipment is consistent with the verification code distributed by the server or not, and the verification code in the used sub-storage area can be used for carrying out data check counting with the verification code stored in the server, such as account checking and the like. Storing unused verification codes in the unused sub-storage area, wherein the unused verification codes comprise verification codes in use and unused verification codes; when a request comes, whether the verification code in the unused sub-storage area is consistent with the verification code in the use code sent by the remote controller is judged, so that whether the instruction of the remote controller is effective is judged. The two sub-storage areas are used for storing different verification codes, namely a used verification code and an unused verification code, and if the verification codes indicate that the verification codes are not used in the unused sub-storage areas, the verification is passed, and the air conditioner is available; if the verification code is not in the unused sub-storage area or if the verification code is in the used sub-storage area, the air conditioner is considered to be unavailable. When the user uses up the air conditioner, that is, the use time is pre-selected, the corresponding verification code in the unused sub-storage area is discarded and stored in the used sub-storage area.
FIG. 10 is a flow diagram illustrating verification of a passcode according to an embodiment of the invention. When receiving the code sent by the remote controller, extracting the verification code, firstly judging whether the verification code in use exists in the unused sub-storage area, if so, further judging whether the verification code in use exists in the unused sub-storage area, if so, directly controlling the air conditioning equipment, if not, storing the verification code in use, and simultaneously starting a timer to count whether the purchased time is expired, otherwise, deleting the verification code from the unused sub-storage area, wherein the verification code in use is invalid.
Accordingly, the unused verification code of the air conditioner is stored in the server through the unused table, the used verification code of the air conditioner is stored through the used table, when the verification code is returned each time, the unused verification code is inquired from the unused table and returned, and is put into the used table and deleted from the unused table, and the used verification code in the used table is used for data check statistics with the used verification code held by the air conditioner, which can be specifically referred to fig. 9.
And after the verification of the verification code is passed, acquiring the use time, and starting timing until the service purchased by the user expires.
Optionally, during the period that the air conditioning equipment is not used, if the server receives the service request sent by the mobile terminal again, the server records the used time, returns a verification code to the mobile terminal, and the user inputs the verification code in the air conditioning remote controller; and the air conditioning equipment inquires the unused sub storage area again after receiving the verification code, records the time of the first time of unused completion, and counts time by taking the time of the first time of unused completion as a timing point.
For example, if the user continues to charge during the period of non-use completion, the server records the shared time and issues the verification code, the user needs to input the verification code again, the air conditioning equipment receives the new verification and then inquires the non-use storage area again, records the time of first non-use completion, and then counts the time by taking the time of first non-use completion as the timing point. If for the first time 14: 35, after using 35 minutes for 1 hour, two orders are placed, the server records the total 4 hours, and the device also records 14: 35 are started and used for a total of 4 hours.
Fig. 2 is a view showing a structure of a system using an air conditioner of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the system includes: the mobile terminal is used for sending a service request to the server, wherein the service request comprises equipment information of the air conditioning equipment requested to be used and receiving a verification code sent by the server; the server is used for receiving a service request sent by the mobile terminal, extracting equipment information in the service request, inquiring a verification code corresponding to the equipment information, returning the verification code to the mobile terminal, and inputting the verification code into the air conditioner remote controller by a user; the air conditioner remote controller is used for receiving the verification code input by the user, generating a use code according to the verification code and sending the use code to the air conditioning equipment; and the air conditioning equipment is used for receiving the use code, verifying the use code and starting the air conditioning equipment after the verification is passed.
The service request includes equipment information of the air conditioning equipment. The device information includes, for example, one or a combination of two or more of UUID, MAC, and IP address of the air conditioner. The service request may specifically be a payment request. And after receiving the payment request, the server returns a payment page to the mobile terminal according to the equipment information, and the mobile terminal pays the use cost of the air conditioning equipment to the server based on the payment page. Optionally, the service request further includes the usage duration information, for example, as shown in fig. 8a, the service request includes the device ID and the purchase hour (i.e., the usage duration information). The mobile terminal firstly requests a server to select a page, and selects the use time (purchase hour); the server returns a selection page, and after the user selects the use time on the page, the mobile terminal sends a service request to the server, wherein the service request comprises the equipment information and the use time (purchase hour). And the server returns a payment page to the server after receiving the information, wherein the payment page specifically comprises the use fee information, namely the use fee required to be paid by using the air conditioning equipment determined according to the use time. The payment page may further include a payment type, a service type, and/or a consumption type. And the mobile terminal displays the payment page after receiving the payment page, and the user pays corresponding use cost to the server in the payment page according to the use cost information.
In a specific embodiment, the mobile terminal sends the service request to the server by scanning a two-dimensional code. For example, a user sends a payment request at a mobile phone end by scanning a two-dimensional code using an air conditioner control client (APP) or a mobile payment Application (APP), wherein the two-dimensional code can be attached to air conditioning equipment to be used, and the two-dimensional code information comprises equipment information; after the user uses the mobile terminal to scan the code, the user requests the server for selecting the page, the server returns the selected page, after the user selects the use time of the page, the mobile terminal sends a service request, such as a payment request, to the server, the server returns the payment page after receiving the payment request, and the user carries out payment.
The service request includes equipment information of the air conditioning equipment. After receiving the service request (for example, the payment request), the server extracts the device information therein, queries the verification code corresponding to the device information (specifically, the verification code may be a verification code allocated to the device in advance), and returns the verification code to the mobile terminal. For example, after the user finishes payment through the mobile terminal, the server returns a verification code to the mobile terminal through the payment page, and the user inputs the verification code in the remote controller according to the verification code to be paired with the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner is controlled. The verification code comprises: device ID, password field, and/or duration of use information (e.g., purchase hour information), as shown in particular with reference to fig. 8 b. Optionally, the server queries the verification code corresponding to the device information through a pre-stored lookup table, where the lookup table includes the device information and the verification code corresponding thereto.
Optionally, when receiving a service request of a user, the server judges the current state of the corresponding air conditioning equipment according to the equipment information; and if the air conditioner is in the online state, updating the verification code stored locally by the air conditioner. If the air conditioner is off-line, the verification code cannot be updated, so that when the air conditioner is off-line, the server updates a batch of verification codes for the air conditioner, wherein the batch of verification codes is used for being available when the air conditioner is off-line, therefore, if the air conditioner is in an on-line state, the verification codes stored locally in the air conditioner are updated, the verification codes are returned to the user, and if the air conditioner is off-line, the verification codes can be directly returned to the user (the mobile terminal).
After receiving the verification code input by the user, the remote controller generates a use code according to the verification code, where the use code specifically includes: the verification code, the remote controller control code and the end check code. For example, the air conditioner remote controller supports digital verification input or key multiplexing and other modes for inputting verification codes. The remote controller adds the verification code input by the user into the code sending section to form a new code, the format of the code can be changed dynamically, and the new code forming mode (shown in figure 8c, the code sending mode of the remote controller) comprises the verification code, the remote controller control code and the end check code, and the new code is sent to the air conditioner.
Before the use code is verified, the air conditioning equipment decodes the use code according to a preset decoding mode, wherein the preset decoding mode, specifically, a decoding mode negotiated in advance, can be stored in the air conditioning equipment in advance, or a remote controller sends the preset decoding mode to the air conditioning equipment. And the server decodes the use code to obtain a three-segment code, wherein the first segment is a verification code, the second segment is a control code, and the third segment is an end check code. The air conditioning equipment is provided with a storage area for storing the verification code, and the storage area comprises an unused sub storage area and a used sub storage area; the air conditioner specifically comprises the following steps of: and inquiring whether the verification code in the received use code is in the unused sub storage area, and if so, checking to be passed.
The verification code which is used and the service time (the use time selected by the user) is expired is stored in the used sub-storage area, and is used in combination with the unused sub-storage area to judge whether the verification simultaneously occurs in the two sub-storage areas or not, and can be used for counting whether the verification code used by the equipment is consistent with the verification code distributed by the server or not, and the verification code in the used sub-storage area can be used for carrying out data check counting with the verification code stored in the server, such as account checking and the like. Storing unused verification codes in the unused sub-storage area, wherein the unused verification codes comprise verification codes in use and unused verification codes; when a request comes, whether the verification code in the unused sub-storage area is consistent with the verification code in the use code sent by the remote controller is judged, so that whether the instruction of the remote controller is effective is judged. The two sub-storage areas are used for storing different verification codes, namely a used verification code and an unused verification code, and if the verification codes indicate that the verification codes are not used in the unused sub-storage areas, the verification is passed, and the air conditioner is available; if the verification code is not in the unused sub-storage area or if the verification code is in the used sub-storage area, the air conditioner is considered to be unavailable. When the user uses up the air conditioner, that is, the use time is pre-selected, the corresponding verification code in the unused sub-storage area is discarded and stored in the used sub-storage area.
