Definitions

  • the invention refers to a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status, a kit of parts comprising a key, a door lock and a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status, and a method of operating a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status.
  • Locking a door is a routine operation that people carry out subconsciously. However, when we get away from the door, we often start wondering whether we have locked the door or not. This is a stressful situation and we sometimes go check whether the door is really locked. This is why devices have been developed, which detect and record a door lock status; we can be reassured to have locked the door thanks to an indicator in the device indicating the door lock status.
  • a device of this type is disclosed in document US 2009/0293567 A1 .
  • the device electronically tracks the use of a key to lock and unlock a door and retains information of the status.
  • the user is able to query about the recorded door lock status.
  • the device includes an actuating arrangement to allow tracking of the key position during a locking or unlocking motion of the key. These tracked signals are evaluated relative to at least two known signals indicative of a locking movement or an unlocking movement.
  • the user is able to query the door lock status at a later point.
  • Document US 2013/335194 A1 discloses a key managed by a key management device, which has an operation detecting unit configured to detect an operating state thereof, and a transmitter configured to transmit information of the operating state detected by the operation detecting unit to receiving devices through wireless communication.
  • the operation detecting unit includes an acceleration sensor, and detects information of acceleration measured by the acceleration sensor as the operating state thereof.
  • Document US 6 255 957 B1 discloses a process which reliably detects the change of the locking state of at least one lock with a logic with a memory and a display attached to a key.
  • the process includes determining a rotation of the key associated with the lock within the lock, detecting a single or multiple rotations in unlocking or locking direction of the lock and simultaneously determining whether the detected rotation occurs in unlocking or locking direction of the lock.
  • a signal is generated that indicates the unlocking or locking of the lock. This signal is stored in the memory of the logic, and the signal is displayed.
  • a device for implementing the process which includes one or several markers mounted near the lock, one or several sensors non-rotatablye connected with the key for detecting these markers, a logic attachable to the key with a memory in which data can be stored whereby the logic can process the signals received from the sensors, and a display for displaying the locking state.
  • Document EP 3 070 683 A1 discloses a method for monitoring the locking state of a rotary lock which can be operated with a mechanical key.
  • the key is provided with a sensor device, the sensor device is a rotary motion sensor with which a rotary motion of the key is detected, and has an orientation sensor with which the orientation of the key is detected during the rotary movement, based on the rotary movement of the key detected by the rotary movement sensor, the locking state of the rotary lock is determined and on the basis of the orientation detected by the orientation sensor during the turning movement of the key it is determined on which side of the rotary lock the key has been operated.
  • the technical problem is how to configure a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status that would detect a correct status regardless of the side, from which a door lock was locked.
  • a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status comprising:
  • the motion sensor detects key orientation and a direction of key rotation within the lock.
  • the magnetic field density sensor detects the magnetic field density and determines, from which side of the lock the door was locked in dependence on the detected magnetic field density.
  • the magnetic field density sensor can detect the direction of key rotation within the lock instead of the motion sensor.
  • a source of the magnetic field is two permanent magnets.
  • the device Prior to the first use, the device must be calibrated by keeping the push button depressed for several seconds in order to determine a threshold value of the magnetic field density.
  • the detected direction of key rotation within the lock is recorded in a memory of the microcontroller.
  • the lock status can be checked by pushing the push button and verifying the LED's light signal.
  • the invention further refers to a kit comprising a key, a door lock and a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status.
  • An advantage of the device of the invention over known devices lies in the fact that it correctly detects a change in the door lock status regardless of the side, from which the lock was locked/unlocked and also regardless of the number of keys used for locking and unlocking one lock.
  • a further advantage is a simple, low-cost construction of the device and its reliable operation.
  • a device for detecting and indicating a door lock status comprises:
  • the housing 2 is disc-shaped. It comprises two plastic parts.
  • a first portion 2a of the housing is intended to be fastened to a head of the key 3 by means of the first fastening means, such as a double-sided adhesive tape or a first screw 2d and a first nut 2e.
  • the first nut can be integrated in the first portion of the housing.
  • a hole on the key head can be used for the first screw to pass through.
  • a second portion 2b of the housing functions as a detachable cover protecting the electronic unit and can be removed if needed (e. g. for replacing the battery).
  • the first portion 2a of the housing and the second portion 2b of the housing can be coupled to each other by means of a second fastening means formed as a snap-in connection or of at least one second screw 2f and at least one nut 2h.
  • the housing can further comprise an annular portion 2g, with which the housing can be connected to a keychain.
  • the permanent magnet 4 is intended for fastening to a lock or door by means of the third fastening means such as a double-sided adhesive tape or a third screw and is intended to designate the side of the lock/door.
  • the motion sensor 7 is configured to detect orientation of the key.
  • the motion sensor can be selected among an accelerometer, a combination of a gyroscope and an accelerometer, a gyroscope.
  • a direction of key rotation within a lock can be detected by a motion sensor or a magnetic field density sensor.
  • a push button 11 is configured for calibrating the device prior to first use.
  • the device is calibrated as follows: the key is inserted into a lock, the push button is kept depressed for a predetermined period of time (e. g. 5 seconds), and the key is rotated within the lock by 360° in direction of door lock locking, wherein at least one LED signalizes calibration start/stop (e. g. by a blink).
  • the push button 11 is further configured to check the door lock status which is signalized by means of at least one LED 6.
  • the battery 10 (e. g. CR1632) supplies all components of the electronic unit.
  • the controller e. g. LVD - low voltage detection
  • the device can perform a function of detecting whether the battery will soon be empty and signalizes it by blinking the LED 6 when the door lock status is checked.
  • the microcontroller 9 manages the signals. It receives signals from the motion sensor 7, the magnetic field density sensor 8 and the push button 11, processes them and sends them to at least one LED 6.
  • the microcontroller can comprise a non-volatile memory to preserve data in case of power failure (e. g. EEPROM). In this case, the calibration data are preserved even in case of power failure (e. g. upon battery replacement) and re-calibration is not necessary.
  • the microcontroller is adapted to store the door lock status data for a predetermined period of time (e. g. 4 hours), the data is then deleted. The purpose of this function is to prevent storage of obsolete data in the event of a plurality of keys for the same lock and used by various users.
  • the microcontroller 9 can function in three operating modes: normal mode, low-power mode, sleep mode.
  • the normal operating mode is active in locking, unlocking and calibration when signals from the sensors are obtained. It functions in the low-power mode, in which the internal clock of the microcontroller functions when the user wants to retrieve the data on a door lock status.
  • the microcontroller passes from the low-power mode to the normal operating mode at a certain condition, e. g. when an interruption signal is received from the motion sensor, which indicates that the key is oriented in a direction identical to the direction of the key when inserted in the lock.
  • the microcontroller can pass to a low-power mode when the key is oriented for a certain period of time (e. g.
  • the microcontroller can pass to a sleep mode when the device for detecting and indicating the door lock status on the key is still for a certain period of time and leaves this mode when the key is lifted/moved from a standstill.
  • the LED 6 is intended to indicate the door lock status. There may be only one (e. g. a white LED) which emits light when the user pushes the push button and the lock is locked. There are preferably two LEDs (e. g. green and red). When the user pushes the push button and the lock is locked, the green diode goes on, otherwise the red one goes on if the lock is unlocked. If the diode blinks twice, it indicates that a predetermined time has elapsed, in which the microcontroller memorizes the door lock status. The diodes also signalize other statuses, such as battery status (almost empty), calibration start/end, etc.
  • the magnetic field density sensor e. g. a Hall sensor or a MEMS magnetic field density sensor, is used to detect, from which side of the lock the key is inserted.
  • the magnetic field density sensor 8 measures the magnetic field of the two permanent magnets, of which, when in use, one is arranged on the external side of the lock or door and the other on the internal side of the lock or door such that they face each other with their opposite poles.
  • the magnetic field density sensor assumes the role of a motion sensor.
  • the magnetic field density sensor is a triaxial magnetic field density sensor.
  • the microcontroller computes the direction of key rotation based on the magnetic field density measurements in individual axes.
  • the motion sensor is configured to detect whether the key orientation conforms to the key orientation when the key is in the lock, or to detect a direction of rotation.
  • the motion sensor When the motion sensor is selected as a combination of a gyroscope and an accelerometer, the first one detects a direction of rotation, while the latter detects orientation (if the key is in the lock).
  • an accelerometer When an accelerometer is selected as the motion sensor, it detects a direction of the key rotation and the orientation of the key when the key is in the lock.
  • the magnetic field density sensor assumes the role of a motion sensor
  • the latter is a triaxial magnetic field density sensor 8 detecting both the key orientation and the direction of rotation. It also detects, from which side of the lock the key is inserted.
  • the first one detects key orientation, while the latter detects the direction of rotation and also detects, on which side of the lock the key is inserted.
  • the magnetic field density sensor detects key orientation and also the side of the lock, from which the key is inserted.
  • the gyroscope detects the direction of key rotation within the lock.
  • the method for calibrating the device for detecting and indicating a door lock status comprises the steps:
  • the method for operation of the device for detecting and indicating a door lock status comprises the steps:
  • the predetermined threshold value is determined as 10% to 90%, preferably 40% to 60%, most preferably around 50% of the value of the magnetic field density measured at calibration.
