Specifically, after receiving query information sent by the intelligent set-top box 201 through the wide area network, the electricity consumption analysis server 205 analyzes query conditions and identification codes of the intelligent household appliances 202 from the query information, and further analyzes a query time period from the analyzed query conditions; after searching for a storage record with a timestamp that matches the parsed query time period (e.g., a timestamp within the query time period) from the storage records involved in step S505, determining power consumption information corresponding to the parsed identification code of the smart home appliance 202 from the searched storage record; then, according to the analyzed query conditions, the determined power consumption information is made into a graph and a table of the power consumption information of the intelligent household appliance, and is sent to the intelligent set-top box 201 through the wide area network.
The graph of the electricity utilization information can comprise a line graph, a bar-shaped transition graph, a pie chart and the like; for example, a histogram of the electricity consumption of the current month of the user, wherein each column in the histogram represents the total electricity consumption of each intelligent household appliance of the user in one day; and the pie chart of the power consumption of the user in the current month displays the percentage of the power consumption of each intelligent household appliance of the user in the current month to the total power consumption of all the intelligent household appliances of the user. The table of electricity usage information may include a table of electricity usage amounts; the table of the power consumption amount may include a name of each of the smart home appliances of the user, a power consumption amount of each of the smart home appliances of the user in a unit time, and a percentage of the power consumption amount of each of the smart home appliances in the unit time to a total power consumption amount of all the smart home appliances of the user.
S604: after receiving the graph sent by the power consumption analysis server 205 through the wide area network, the intelligent set-top box 201 outputs the graph to a television connected to the intelligent set-top box 201 for display.
The technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model can support the user to inquire the detailed electricity consumption information (such as electricity consumption) of the intelligent household appliances at home; the power consumption of the user is more transparent, the user can adjust the power consumption plan (for example, the user can purchase power in time in the season of using the air conditioner), the power saving of the user is facilitated (for example, the user can turn off the standby intelligent household appliance in time), and the user experience is improved.
In fact, the intelligent set-top box 201 is replaced with the intelligent communication terminal 203, and the query of the electricity consumption information such as the electricity consumption of the intelligent household appliance 202 can be realized according to the above steps S601 to S604.
In addition, the intelligent home appliance control system including the electricity consumption analysis server 205 also supports an electricity consumption reminding function. For example, the intelligent set-top box 201 or the intelligent communication terminal 202 sends the upper limit value of the total monthly electricity consumption of all the intelligent household appliances of the user, which is input by the user in advance, to the electricity consumption analysis server 205 through the wide area network; the electricity consumption analysis server 205 receives the upper limit value and stores the upper limit value, and when the total monthly electricity consumption of all the intelligent household appliances of the user obtained by query is judged to be larger than the stored upper limit value, a reminding message that the monthly electricity consumption exceeds the upper limit is sent to the intelligent set top box 201 and the intelligent communication terminal 202 through the wide area network. The intelligent set-top box 201 displays the reminding message through the screen thereof by the television connected with the intelligent set-top box and the intelligent communication terminal 202. The reminding message can be specifically graphical text information.
The utility model discloses intelligence domestic appliance control system can also include: a satellite digital signal subsystem 206. The schematic architecture of the satellite digital signal subsystem 206, as shown in fig. 7, includes: a satellite signal receiver 701 and its antenna, a data format conversion gateway 702, a network switch 703.
The satellite signal receiver 701 may specifically be a DVB-S2 (Digital Video Broadcasting-standard2, second generation Digital Video Broadcasting-standard) satellite receiver; the antenna of the satellite signal receiver 701 may specifically be a Ku-band satellite antenna; the tuner (i.e., tuner) input circuit of the satellite signal receiver 701 is electrically connected to its antenna via a coaxial cable. A TS (Transport Stream) signal output circuit of the satellite signal receiver 701 is connected to a TS signal input circuit of the data format conversion gateway 702. The ethernet signal output port of the data format conversion gateway 702 is connected to a network port of the network switch 703. The other two network ports of the network switch 703 are wired to the wan and the ethernet port circuit unit 307 in the intelligent set-top box 201, respectively.
After receiving the satellite signal through the antenna of the satellite signal receiver 701, demodulating a TS signal from the received satellite signal, and sending the TS signal to the data format conversion gateway 702; the data format conversion gateway 702 converts the received TS signal into an audio/video signal conforming to the ethernet standard format, and then sends the audio/video signal to the intelligent set-top box 201 through the network switch 703. The intelligent set-top box 201 decodes the audio and video signal that accords with the ethernet standard format to the method that the TV set was broadcast in the propelling movement, with the aforesaid the utility model discloses the concrete method that intelligent domestic appliance control system broadcast TV program, radio station program is the same, and here is no longer repeated.
In the technical scheme of the utility model, a radio frequency transceiver is added in the intelligent set-top box, and the radio frequency of the radio frequency transceiver is set to be consistent with the radio frequency of a wireless receiving device and a wireless transmitting device in the intelligent household appliance, and the intelligent set-top box and the intelligent household appliance can communicate in a wireless broadcasting mode; the intelligent household appliance can be conveniently controlled by only purchasing one intelligent set top box by a user without additionally purchasing an independent intelligent home gateway, so that the purchasing cost of the user is reduced, and the user experience is improved.
In addition, the radio frequency of the radio frequency transceiver in the intelligent set top box, the radio frequency of the radio receiving device and the radio frequency of the radio transmitting device in the intelligent household appliance can be set in a free frequency band, so that the cost of the intelligent set top box is further reduced, and the acquisition cost of a user is reduced.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, a plurality of modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
