Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application, presented in the accompanying drawings, is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but is merely representative of selected embodiments of the application. 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 application.

It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures. Furthermore, the appearances of the terms "first," "second," and the like, if any, are used solely to distinguish one from another and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. It should be noted that the features of the embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other without conflict.

At present, the door lock can be used for controlling household equipment in a room. The front panel of the door lock is provided with a specific keyboard, and the specific keyboard comprises at least one specific key. It is understood that the door lock is also provided with a keyboard for inputting a password, and the keyboard for inputting the password is different from the specific keyboard. When the door lock senses that the door is closed for a period of time, if the keys on the specific keyboard are pressed, the corresponding household equipment can be directly controlled according to the pressed keys. However, if the user is followed by a person, after the user closes the door and turns away from the home, the followed person may operate the keys in the specific keyboard on the door lock within the period of time, so as to achieve the purpose of illegally controlling the home equipment, and certain potential safety hazards exist.

Therefore, the inventor provides the home equipment control method in the embodiment of the application, after the target key operated by the user is determined, whether the user operating the target key is a legal user is determined, and if yes, the target identifier corresponding to the target key is sent to the control equipment, so that the control equipment controls the corresponding home equipment according to the target automation rule corresponding to the target identifier, thereby avoiding the situation that the illegal user illegally controls the home equipment in a room through a door lock, and reducing the potential safety hazard.

The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic view of an application environment according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The home equipment control method provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to the intelligent home system 10 shown in fig. 1. The smart home system 10 may include a door lock 100, a control device and a home device 200 connected in a communication manner. The control device may be, but is not limited to, the gateway 300 or the server 500. The server 500 may be a local server or a cloud server. The household devices 200 may be lamps, curtains, air conditioners, motorized curtains, etc.

When the control device is the gateway 300, the door lock 100 may send the target identifier corresponding to the target key to the gateway 300 when it is determined that the user operating the target key is a valid user, so that the gateway 300 controls the home device 200 corresponding to the target identifier according to the target identifier.

When the control device is the server 500, the door lock 100 may send the target identifier corresponding to the target key to the server 500 when it is determined that the user operating the target key is a legal user, so that the server 500 controls the home device 200 corresponding to the target identifier according to the target identifier.

The door lock 100 may be connected to the gateway 300 or the server 500 through Zigbee, WiFi, bluetooth, NBIOT, or the like. Optionally, the smart home system 10 may further include a router 400, and the gateway 300 may be communicatively connected to the server 500 through the router 400. Of course, the connection mode between the devices and the network connection mode of the devices in the embodiment of the present application are not limited.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a home device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The method may be applied to the door lock 100 described above. The following explains the specific flow of the home equipment control method in detail.

And step S120, determining a target key according to the user operation.

When a user needs to control the household equipment, the user can operate keys on an input keyboard of the door lock. After the user finishes the operation, the target key operated by the user can be determined, and the target key is the key operated by the user on the input keyboard of the door lock. For example, if the user presses the number key 1, the number key 1 may be determined to be the target key.

Step S130, determining whether the user operating the target key is a valid user.

Whether the user who operates the target key is a legitimate user may be determined in an arbitrary manner after the target key is determined or when the user operates the target key, or the like. The legal user indicates that the user is a user with authority to control the household equipment and is not an illegal user; that is, the control of the home devices by the user is legal and not illegal.

If the user operating the target key is not a legal user, namely the user operating the target key is an illegal user, the operation can be finished directly.

If the user operating the target key is a valid user, step S140 is executed.

And step S140, sending the target identification corresponding to the target key to control equipment so that the control equipment controls the corresponding household equipment according to the target automation rule corresponding to the target identification.

At least one automation rule may be stored in the control device in advance, and one automation rule corresponds to at least one identifier. Alternatively, the user may use the mobile terminal or other interactive terminal in advance to configure and store the above-mentioned automation rule in the control device. The automation rule may include home device identifiers and control instructions corresponding to the home device identifiers, and the automation rule is used to instruct some home device or some home devices to execute the corresponding control instructions.

After determining that the user operating the target key is a legal user, the target identifier corresponding to the target key may be sent to the control device. Wherein, the corresponding identification of a key is unique. The control equipment searches in the stored automation rules according to the received target identification and takes the searched automation rule corresponding to the target identification as the target automation rule. Then, the control device can send a corresponding target instruction to the corresponding target household device according to the target automation rule; and after receiving the target instruction, the corresponding target household equipment executes the target instruction. Therefore, the aim of operating the target key by a legal user can be fulfilled. The target household equipment is household equipment corresponding to the target household equipment identification in the target automation rule, and the target instruction is a control instruction in the target automation rule.

For example, the user presses the number key 1, the identifier of the number key 1 is 1, and the automation rule corresponding to the identifier 1 is: if the number key 1 is pressed, the air conditioner is turned off. Then, when the numeric key 1 is operated and the operating user is a legitimate user, the identification 1 can be transmitted to the control apparatus as a target identification. The control equipment searches a target automation rule according to the target identifier 1, closes the air conditioner if the number key 1 is pressed, and then sends a target closing instruction to the air conditioner; the air conditioner executes the target instruction.

According to the home equipment control method provided by the embodiment of the application, after the target key operated by the user is determined, whether the user operating the target key is a legal user is determined, and if yes, the target identification corresponding to the target key is sent to the control equipment, so that the control equipment controls the corresponding home equipment according to the target automation rule corresponding to the target identification. The target automation rule is used for indicating the target household equipment to execute the target instruction. Therefore, the mode that the corresponding household equipment is controlled according to the target key only when the user operating the target key is determined to be the legal user can avoid the condition that the illegal user illegally controls the household equipment through the door lock, and potential safety hazards are reduced.

Optionally, as an optional implementation, the input keyboard operated by the user is a specific keyboard on the door lock. Since the specific keyboard on the door lock and the keyboard unit for inputting the password are different keyboards, the user can conveniently select different keyboards according to different purposes.

In practical applications, a plurality of automation rules are likely to be set, so that a plurality of keys corresponding to the plurality of automation rules are needed to meet the needs of users. For example, a family houses two adults, a child, and a dog. When someone goes out, there are many situations, such as: 1. another adult, child and pet are arranged in the house; 2. all adults were out of the house, leaving a child in the house, and a dog; 3. all people are out of the house, and only one dog is left in the house; 4. all people and pets are out. Each case corresponds to a separate automation rule. Still having each automation rule correspond to a specific key results in the need to provide a plurality of specific buttons on a specific keypad on the front panel of the door lock, which increases the cost of manufacturing.

In order to avoid increasing the manufacturing cost on the basis of meeting diversified requirements, as another alternative embodiment, the input keyboard operated by the user is a keyboard unit used for inputting the password on the door lock. The user may pre-configure the corresponding automation rule for each numeric key, or may pre-configure the automation rule corresponding to the numeric key combination, for example, the numeric

key combination

1, 2 corresponds to one automation rule, and if the identifier corresponding to the numeric

key combination

1, 2 is 12, the identifier 12 corresponds to one automation rule. Therefore, by multiplexing the number keys from 0 to 9 for password input on the door lock, the condition that a plurality of specific keys are independently arranged can be avoided, and meanwhile diversified requirements can be met.

Optionally, the automation rule may be expressed as "do zzz action when xxx event occurs and yyy state is satisfied". xxx events, representing a key that is pressed; a yyy state, representing a particular state, e.g., when the indoor brightness is less than a certain threshold; a zzz action, which indicates what household device is to execute what instruction, e.g., turn off the air conditioner. The zzz action can correspond to only one household device or a plurality of household devices. It is understood that the user may not set the "yyy status" when setting the automation rules.

The following illustrates the automation rules. If an automation rule is that the electric curtain is controlled to be opened when the key 1 is pressed and the indoor brightness is less than the preset brightness, the electric curtain is controlled to be opened to enable outdoor ambient light to enter the room if the indoor brightness is less than the preset brightness after the key 1 is pressed.

Optionally, in an implementation manner of this embodiment, when the user operates the target key, the face image of the user may be obtained, and then the face image may be compared with a face image of a legal person stored in advance. If the similarity is greater than the threshold, it can be determined that the user operating the target key is a valid user. Otherwise, if the similarity is not greater than the threshold, it may be determined that the user operating the target key is not a legitimate user. Therefore, whether the user operating the target key is a legal user or not can be accurately determined through the face recognition technology.

Face recognition techniques may require some processing power from the device and may add significant cost. To avoid this, it can be determined whether the user operating the target key is a legitimate user in the manner shown in fig. 3. Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating sub-steps included in step S140 in fig. 2. Step S140 may include sub-steps S141 to S143.

And a substep S141 of determining whether a user is positioned in front of the door lock during a period from when the door is opened or closed to when the operation of the target key is received.

If there is always a user in front of the door lock, substep S142 is performed. If the user is not always in front of the door lock, the substep S143 is performed.

And a substep S142, determining that the user operating the target key is a legal user.

And a substep S143 of determining that the user operating the target key is not a legitimate user.

In general, users who can open or close the door are both legitimate users. If a legal user needs to control the household equipment, the input keyboard on the door lock can be directly operated after the door is opened or closed. During this time, the legitimate user is always in front of the door lock. The illegal person who follows the legal user generally operates the input keyboard on the door lock after the legal user leaves the door lock. That is, in the time period starting from the time of opening or closing the door and ending at the time of receiving the operation of the input keyboard, the legitimate user appears before the door lock at the beginning, no one is in the middle, and the illegitimate appears before the door lock at the end. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the user operating the target key is a legitimate user by detecting whether the user is always positioned in front of the door lock during the above-described period of time.

Optionally, if a camera is installed near the door lock, it may be determined whether a user is always located in front of the door lock in the above time period based on a video collected by the camera.

The infrared (energy) wavelength of the human body radiation is mainly concentrated on about 10000nm, and according to the characteristic of the human body infrared wavelength, the infrared ray of the human body radiation can be detected by using a corresponding detection device, so that the aim of detecting the human body activity information is fulfilled. Optionally, an infrared human body detection unit may be further installed on the door lock, and the infrared human body detection unit is used to detect whether a user is always located in front of the door lock in the above time period. The infrared human body detection unit has low cost. Therefore, whether a user is always positioned in front of the door lock can be judged through the infrared human body detection unit, and meanwhile, more cost cannot be increased.

If the user is always located before the door lock in the time period, the user operating the target keyboard can be determined to be a legal user, and then the target identification corresponding to the target key is sent to the control equipment, so that the control equipment can control the corresponding target household equipment according to the target identification.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a second schematic flow chart of a home device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. In an embodiment of the present application, before step S120, the method may further include step S110.

Step S110, controlling the key corresponding to the automation rule to emit light.

The control device or the door lock may be pre-stored with a correspondence relationship between the automation rule and the key. Because generally, after the user opens or closes the door, the user can operate the input keyboard on the door lock, therefore, after opening or closing the door, the keys corresponding to the automation rules can be controlled to emit light, so as to remind the user which keys on the input keyboard are effective keys capable of controlling the household equipment. Optionally, the key corresponding to the automation rule may be controlled to emit light according to the first light emitting state, and the specific state of the first light emitting state may be set according to actual requirements, for example, the first light emitting state is normally on, or the first light emitting state is first flickered and then normally on.

When configuring an automation rule, a user generally configures an intelligent scene corresponding to the automation rule at the same time, that is, one intelligent scene corresponds to one automation rule, for example, scene 1: automation rule 1. The automation rule corresponds to an intelligent scenario, indicating that the automation rule is executed in the intelligent scenario. By configuring the intelligent scene at the same time, multiplexing of the scene and the automation rule can be realized, and the automation rule is prevented from being reset when the same household equipment is controlled by other equipment in the same way.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating one of the sub-steps included in step S110 in fig. 4. In case the stored automation rules comprise automation rules corresponding to respective different intelligent scenarios, step S110 may comprise sub-step S111 and sub-step S112.

And a substep S111, determining the keys corresponding to the intelligent scenes respectively according to the pre-stored corresponding relationship between the intelligent scenes and the identifiers and the corresponding relationship between the keys and the identifiers.

And a substep S112, controlling the keys corresponding to the intelligent scenes to emit light according to the first light-emitting state.

In this embodiment, the control device or the door lock stores a correspondence between the smart scene and the identifier and a correspondence between the key and the identifier in advance, so that the key corresponding to the smart scene can be determined according to the correspondence. And the corresponding relation also exists between the intelligent scene and the automation rule, so that the determined key corresponding to the intelligent scene is the key corresponding to at least a part of the automation rule. After the key to be controlled is determined, the keys corresponding to the intelligent scenes can be controlled to emit light according to the first light emitting state.

Optionally, a first preset light effect control instruction may be preset, and when the key needs to be controlled to emit light according to the first light emitting state, the corresponding key may be controlled to emit light according to the first preset light effect control instruction.

When a user goes out, some furniture equipment is still in a working state. If the user enters the home equipment in the working state again, the user is troublesome to turn off the home equipment and go out again. In order to avoid the above situation, the home devices may be pre-designated, and the automation rules corresponding to the designated home devices may be set. The designated home equipment can be determined by the user in all home equipment in the house according to the requirement of the user. Referring to fig. 6, if the stored automation rules include automation rules corresponding to the designated home devices, fig. 6 is a second schematic flow chart of the substeps included in step S110 in fig. 4. The step S110 may include a substep S114 and a substep S115.

And a substep S114, determining a key corresponding to the specified household equipment in the current working state in the intelligent household system.

And a substep S115, controlling the key corresponding to the specified household equipment in the current working state to emit light according to the first light-emitting state.

In this embodiment, the control device or the door lock may store in advance a correspondence relationship between each of the designated home devices and the key. The control device can detect the working state of each current appointed household device in the intelligent household system, and if the appointed household devices are in the working state, the control device can determine the keys corresponding to the appointed household devices in the working state according to the stored corresponding relation between the appointed household devices and the keys, and then sends the related information of the keys to the door lock. After receiving the relevant information of the keys, the door lock determines the corresponding keys and then controls the keys to emit light according to the first light-emitting state. Optionally, the door lock may control the keys corresponding to the designated home devices currently in the working state to emit light according to the first light emitting state according to the first preset light effect control instruction.

Optionally, the control device may also send the device identifier of the part of home devices to the door lock when detecting the specified home device currently in the working state; after receiving the device identifier, the door lock can determine the key to be controlled according to the pre-stored corresponding relationship between the specified household device and the key and the device identifier, and then control the part of keys to emit light according to the first light emitting state. The corresponding relationship between the specified home devices and the keys can be represented by corresponding identifiers corresponding to the device identifiers of the specified home devices and the keys.

Optionally, a power meter may be connected in series between each household device and the utility power, and the power meter is used for measuring the real-time power consumption of the household device. After receiving the door closing state information sent by the door lock, the control equipment can determine the designated household equipment which is working according to the data of each power meter. Therefore, the control equipment determines the designated household equipment in the working state. Of course, it can be understood that the designated home equipment in the working state may be determined in other manners.

Therefore, when a user leaves the door, the key corresponding to the specified household equipment in the current working state can be controlled to emit light, so that the user is prompted whether the specified household equipment works and needs to be closed or not. If the user needs to close, the purpose can be achieved by operating the corresponding key.

It should be noted that the stored automation rules may only include automation rules corresponding to different intelligent scenes, may also only include automation rules corresponding to designated home devices, or may include both the automation rules and the automation rules, which are determined by the user according to actual needs.

Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a third schematic flow chart of a home device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, after the target key is determined, the method may further include step S130.

And step S130, controlling the target key to emit light according to a second light-emitting state, and simultaneously controlling other keys except the target key on the input keyboard to emit light according to a third light-emitting state.

In this embodiment, after the user operates the key, in order to give feedback to the user, the target key may be controlled to emit light according to the second light-emitting state, and at the same time, other keys on the input keyboard except the target key may be controlled to emit light according to the third light-emitting state. The second light-emitting state is different from the third light-emitting state, and can be specifically set according to actual requirements. For example, before the user operates the target key, the light-emitting state of at least one part of keys on the input keyboard is flashing first and then normally bright, after the user operates the target key, the light-emitting state of the target key can be controlled to be normally bright, and other keys which are flashing first and then normally bright are controlled not to be lit or to be flashed.

Optionally, a second preset light effect control instruction and a third preset light effect control instruction may be preset, and when feedback needs to be given to a user, the target key may be controlled to emit light according to the second light emitting state according to the two preset light effect control instructions; and controlling other keys except the target key on the input keyboard to emit light according to a third light-emitting state according to the third preset light effect control instruction.

Optionally, as an optional implementation manner, for the purpose of saving power consumption and being able to control the household device, the door lock may enter a waiting state within a waiting time period, where the waiting time period is a time period of a preset time duration (for example, 15 seconds) after the door is opened or closed. After the door lock enters a waiting state, if a user operates the keys on the input keyboard and the user is a legal user, the corresponding household equipment is controlled according to the operated keys. Therefore, the door lock can be prevented from being in a state of waiting for receiving and controlling the operation of the household equipment all the time. It is understood that, if the user operates the input keypad when the door lock is not in the waiting state, the operation may be regarded as an operation of inputting a password for opening the door, and it may be determined whether to open the door based on the password input by the user.

Alternatively, after the door lock enters the waiting state, if it is detected that no user is in front of the door lock, the waiting state may be directly exited.

If the user operates the input keyboard of the door lock before the waiting time period is ended, whether the user is a legal user or not can be determined, and if yes, the identification corresponding to the operated key is sent to the control equipment. If some keys are still lighted, the keys are not lighted and the waiting state is exited.

If the user operates the cancel key before the waiting time period is over, the user can directly exit the waiting state without waiting. If the user does not operate the key at the end of the waiting time period, the user can directly exit the waiting state.

Referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a door lock 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. The door lock 100 may include a main control chip 101, a door opening and closing detection unit 102, a keyboard unit 103, a user detection unit 104, and a communication unit 105. The main control chip 101 is in communication connection with the door opening and closing detection unit 102, the keyboard unit 103, the user detection unit 104, and the communication unit 105. The user detection unit 104 may be, but is not limited to, an infrared human body detection unit.

The main control chip 101 may be configured to execute the home device control method.

The door opening and closing detection unit 102 is used for detecting the opening and closing states of the door.

The keyboard unit 103 is used for receiving the operation of the user on the keys after the switch or the door is closed. At least a part of the keys in the keyboard unit 103 correspond to home devices, that is, the keys are associated with actions. The keypad unit 103 may be a numeric keypad for password input, and the numeric keypad may include at least 10 numeric keys of 0 to 9 and a key indicating a "cancel" function. It will of course be appreciated that the data keyboard may also include keys for "ok" functions. The "confirm" key may be used to indicate that the key operation is finished when selected, for example, when the keys selected by the user are "1", "2" and "confirm", it may be determined that the user has finished the key selection, and the selected number keys are "1" and "2" in sequence; in case it is determined that the user is a legitimate user, the identification 12 may be sent to the control device.

The user detection unit 104 is configured to detect whether a user is in front of a door lock.

The communication unit 105 is configured to implement a communication connection between the door lock 100 and another device (e.g., a control device). The communication unit 105 may communicate with other devices based on Zigbee, WiFi, bluetooth, NBIOT protocols, etc.

The operation of the door lock 100 having the above-described structure will be briefly described.

When the door opening and closing detection unit 102 detects that the door is opened or closed, the door lock 100 enters a waiting state. Upon entering the waiting state, the main control chip 101 may control the keys corresponding to the automation rule on the keyboard unit 103 to blink twice and then highlight to indicate permission to receive a key operation of the user, which may be used to control the home device. Wherein, optionally, the 'cancel' and 'confirm' keys can be controlled to flash twice and then be highlighted. Meanwhile, the main control chip 101 turns on the user detection unit 104 to detect whether a user is in front of the door lock in real time. The main control chip is also used for starting a countdown timer with a certain time length (for example, 15 seconds).

When the door lock is in the waiting state, if the user detection unit 104 does not detect that a user is positioned in front of the door lock, the waiting state is immediately exited.

When the door lock is in the waiting state, if the number key on the keyboard unit 103 is operated, for example, the number key N is operated, and when the operating user is a legal user, the information that "the user selects the number N" may be immediately reported to the control device through the communication unit 105. The control equipment immediately acquires the automation rule corresponding to the number N and controls the household equipment according to the corresponding automation rule. The door lock 100 closes the highlighted state of the keys other than the data key selected by the user after receiving the operation of the numeric key, and exits the waiting state after a certain duration (for example, 1 second).

When the door lock is in the waiting state, if the cancel key on the keyboard unit 103 is pressed, the highlighted state of the keys other than the cancel key is turned off, and after a certain time period (for example, 1 second) is maintained, the waiting state is exited.

When the door lock is in the standby state, the door lock 100 exits the standby state if the countdown timer times out.

When exiting the waiting state, the main control chip 101 turns off the highlighting of at least a part of the keys in the keyboard unit 103, turns off the timing of the countdown timer, and also turns off the real-time detection function of the user detection unit 104.

Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a fourth flowchart illustrating a home device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The method is briefly described below.

And step S210, the door lock determines a target key according to the user operation.

The target key is a key operated by a user on an input keyboard of the door lock.

In step S220, the door lock determines whether the user operating the target key is a valid user.

And when the user operating the target key is not a legal user, the operation can be directly finished. When the user operating the target key is a valid user, step S230 is performed.

And step S240, the door lock sends the target identification corresponding to the target key to the control equipment.

In step S250, the control device obtains a target automation rule corresponding to the target identifier from prestored automation rules.

The target automation rule is used for indicating the target household equipment to execute the target instruction.

Step S260, the control device controls the target home devices to execute the target instructions according to the target automation rules.
