Description
A SMART BATH MIRROR
[00011 The application claims the priority of the Chinese patent application No. 201811605139 3, filed with the Chinese Patent Office on December 26, 2018 and titled "A SMART BATH MIRROR", the disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The invention relates to the field of smart home technology, and in particular, to a smart bath minor.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Bath mirror is an indispensable item in a bathroom. However, a traditional bath mirror may only satisfies user's requirements for dressing and tidying appearance, whose function is single, and is not adaptive to requirements for modern smart bathroom. For example, when a user needs to face a bath mirror for dressing, if the bathroom has a lower illumination at the moment, the user may see itself in the bath mirror clearly only by manually turning on a light switch in the bathroom, and therefore the user experience is undesirable.
[00041 In this regard, some smart bath mirrors are equipped with a camera assembly for detecting whether there is a person present in front of the mirror face, and an illuminance sensor for detecting the lightness within the bathroom at the moment. If a detection value of the illuminance sensor is lower than a threshold value, and the camera assembly detects presence of a user in front of the mirror face, it is deemed that the user needs to use the bath mirror, and then a bathroom system will control a lighting system to open. Furthermore, the camera assembly further provides functions of cosmetically shooting and photographing for the user, which may realize interaction experience between human and minor face, and therefore the bath mirror is configured to have intelligent and diversified function.
[0005] However, the bathroom belongs to a relatively private location in a household ambience. The camera assembly is required to stay in an open state for a long time to detect whether there is any person present in the mirror face in real time, and a smart home is further required to be connected and communicated with network. In this case, the camera assembly will become an obstacle for privacy protection.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[00061 The application provides a smart bath mirror to solve the problem that a safe and effective illumination cannot be provided for the user by an existing bath mirror.
[00071 A smart bath mirror provided in the application includes a mirror face and a frame, wherein a top end of the mirror face is provided with a function box. The outer surface of the function box is provided with an illuminance sensor and an infrared sensor, and the interior of the function box is provided with an inclined plate assembly, a piston and a retractable luminescent board in parallel with a bottom surface of the function box. The inclined plate assembly includes a first inclined plate and a second inclined plate. The retractable luminescent board includes a first luminescent board and a second luminescent board that is retractable to slide along the first luminescent board. An end of the first luminescent board is slidably connected with the first inclined plate, and an end of the second luminescent board is slidably connected with the second inclined plate. The first luminescent board is connected with a top portion of the function box via the piston. A trigger switch is provided between the inclined plate assembly and a bottom portion of the function box. The bottom portion of the function box is provided with a sealing cover.
[0008] The interior of the function box is further provided with a controller configured for controlling the piston to stretch when a detection value of the illuminance sensor is lower than a threshold value and the infrared sensor senses presence of an active object in front of the mirror face, and controlling the sealing cover to open when the retractable luminescent board declines along the inclined plate assembly to the moment that the trigger switch is triggered, and simultaneously controlling the retractable luminescent board to illuminate.
[0009] As may be known from the above technical solutions that, in the smart bath mirror provided in the application, the retractable luminescent board for illuminating is provided in an interior of the function box. When a detection value of the illuminance sensor is lower than a threshold value and the infrared sensor senses presence of an active object in front of the mirror face, that is, when the user needs to use the bath mirror while the bathroom has a lower illumination, the controller controls the piston to stretch, such that the piston pushes the retractable luminescent board to decline. During the declination of the retractable luminescent board, a length stretched by the second luminescent board is gradually increased to enlarge a radiation scope illuminated by the bath mirror. When the retractable luminescent board arrives at a bottom portion of the function box to trigger the trigger switch, the controller controls the sealing cover to open, so as to make light permeate through the function box, and simultaneously controls the first luminescent board and the second luminescent board to illuminate and lighten areas around the mirror face, so as to facilitate the user to use the bath minor. When the illumination of the bath mirror is not required, the controller controls the piston to retract, which drives the retractable luminescent board to rise, so as to release a triggering state of the trigger switch, and simultaneously controls the sealing cover to close, so as to realize sealing of the function box. It may be seen that, the application may provide a safe and effective lighting manner for the bath minor according to user's activity state and ambient state within a bathroom. Moreover, a lighting device is provided within a sealed function box, which not only has a function of dustproof and waterproof, but also is favorable for aesthetics of the bath mirror, thereby dramatically improving user experience.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
100181 To make a person skilled in the art better understand the technical solutions in the application, the technical solutions in the application will be described clearly and exhaustively below in combination with figures.
[0019] As illustrated in figure 1, embodiment 1 of the application provides a smart bath minor, including a minor face I_ and a frame 2. The frame 2 is a plate structure enveloping a peripheral edge of the minor face 1. The top end of the mirror face 1 is provided with a function box 3 which does not cover the mirror face 1. The function box 3 has an outer surface provided with an illuminance sensor 301 and an infrared sensor 302. The illuminance sensor 301 is configured to sense light intensity within a bathroom with respect to the ambient state within the bathroom. The infrared sensor 302 may sense whether there is an active object present in front of the minor face 1 by infrared ray, wherein the active object is a user. Whether the user needs to use the bath mirror may be specifically determined according to how long the active object stays in front of the mirror face 1.
[0020] The interior of the function box 3 is provided with an inclined plate assembly 303, a piston 304 and a retractable luminescent board 305 in parallel with a bottom surface of the function box 3. The inclined plate assembly 303 includes a first inclined plate 3031 and a second inclined plate 3032. The retractable luminescent board 305 includes a first luminescent board 3051 and a second luminescent board 3052 that is retractable to slide along the first luminescent board. An end of the first luminescent board 3051 is slidably connected with the first inclined plate 3031, and an end of the second luminescent board 3052 is slidably connected with the second inclined plate 3032. The first luminescent board 3051 is connected with a top portion of the function box 3 via the piston 304. A trigger switch 306 is provided between the inclined plate assembly 303 and a bottom portion of the function box 3. The bottom portion of the function box 3 is provided with a sealing cover 307. In this embodiment, the function box 3 is made of a waterproof material, and the sealing cover 307 stays in a closed state when its function is not initiated.
100211 The first inclined plate 3031 and the second inclined plate 3032 have a same structure and are provided symmetrically in the interior of the function box 3. In the following, illustration is made by taking the first inclined plate 3031 as an example. The first inclined plate 3031 has an upper end abutted on the top portion of the function box 3, and a lower end abutted on the bottom portion of the function box 3. A inclination angle a of the first inclined plate 3031 is ranged from 15° to 45°, such that a width of a lower portion of the inclined plate assembly 303 is greater than a width of an upper portion thereof, that is, a trapezoidal-like structure is formed. In this case, during the declining of the retractable luminescent board 305, a length thereof will be increased to enlarge an illumination scope, thereby ensuring that the ambience around the bath mirror has sufficient light intensity and facilitating the user to use the bath minor. It should be noted that, the inclination angle a may be adaptively adjusted according to a size of the mirror face 1 to ensure a sufficient illumination scope. Furthermore, the structure of the inclined plate assembly 303 may reduce occupancy on the internal space of the function box 3, so as to facilitate the wiring of respective components within the function box 3 and the controller.
100221 The first inclined plate 3031 may be provided with a chute thereon, along which the first luminescent board 3051 is movable upward and downward to complete processes of expansion and retraction as well as illumination. The first luminescent board 3051 may be provided with a groove therein, such that the second luminescent board 3052 may complete expansion and retraction by passing in and out of the groove. The piston 304 may be controlled to stretch or retract by a cylinder, thereby driving the retractable luminescent board 305 to decline or rise. The piston 304 is vertically connected with the first luminescent board 3051 to prevent its influence on expansion and retraction of the second luminescent board 3052. The trigger switch 306 is configured for detecting whether the retractable luminescent board 305 declines to the bottom portion of the function box 3. The trigger switch 306 is triggered when the retractable luminescent board 305 contacts the trigger switch 306, such that an illumination procedure may be initiated. The sealing cover 307 may be a sliding type to open the function box 3 by sliding, and may also be a turning type with which a lighting path may be opened by rotating the sealing cover 307. The application does not limit other manners of opening the sealing cover 307.
[0023] In this embodiment, the interior of the function box 3 is further provided with a controller 308 and the retractable luminescent board 305 for illumination. When a detection value of the illuminance sensor 301 is lower than a threshold value and the infrared sensor 302 senses presence of an active object in front of the mirror face, that is, when the user needs to use the bath mirror but the bathroom has a lower illumination, the controller 308 controls the piston 304 to stretch, such that the piston 304 pushes the retractable luminescent board 305 to decline, during which time a length stretched by the second luminescent board 3052 is gradually increased to enlarge a radiation scope illuminated by the bath mirror. When the retractable luminescent board 305 arrives at a bottom portion of the function box 3 to trigger the trigger switch 306, the controller 308 controls the sealing cover 307 to open, so as to make light permeate through the function box 3, and simultaneously controls the first luminescent board 3051 and the second luminescent board 3052 to illuminate and lighten areas around the mirror face 1 as illustrated in figure 2, so as to facilitate the user to use the bath mirror. When the bath minor is not required to illuminate, the controller 308 controls the piston 304 to shorten, which drives the retractable luminescent board 305 to rise, so as to deactivate a triggering state of the trigger switch 306, and simultaneously controls the sealing cover 307 to close, so as to realize sealing of the function box 3. It may be seen that, the application may provide a bath minor with a safe and effective lighting manner according to user's activity state and ambient state within a bathroom. Moreover, the lighting device is provided within a sealed function box 3, which may not only have a function of dustproof and waterproof, but also be favorable for aesthetics of the bath mirror, thereby dramatically improving user experience.
[0024] A length Ls of the retractable luminescent board 305 is greater than or equal to L1 and less than or equal to L2, wherein LI is a distance between an upper end of the first inclined plate 3031 and an upper end of the second inclined plate 3032, and L2 is a distance between a lower end of the first inclined plate 3031 and a lower end of the second inclined plate 3032.
That is, the length Ls of the retractable luminescent board 305 is adjustable in an interval range of [L1, L2]. A length L6 of the sealing cover 307 is greater than or equal to L2 to ensure fully sealing.
[0025] As illustrated in figures 3-5, based on the structure according to embodiment 1, in a smart bath mirror provided in embodiment 2 of the application, the first luminescent board 3051 has a side face provided with a camera assembly 309. The camera assembly 309 includes a revolving shaft 3091, a crank 3092 and a camera 3093, wherein the crank 3092 is connected with the revolving shaft 3091, and the camera 3093 is provided on an end of the crank 3092. The controller 308 is electrically connected with the revolving shaft 3091 that may be driven by an electric motor.
[0026] When the active object finishes dressing in front of the mirror face 1 and wants to take a cosmetic shot, the controller 308 controls the sealing cover 307 to open and controls the revolving shaft 3091 to rotate. In the embodiment provided in figure 3, the revolving shaft 3091 drives the crank 3092 to rotate counter-clockwise by 90 degrees, so as to rotate the camera 3093 to the front of the minor face 1, that is, a state illustrated as figure 4. At this moment, the camera 3093 faces right the active object, and then the controller 308 controls the camera 3093 to initiate, in this case the active object may take a cosmetic shot, which increases interaction between human and mirror face and improves user experience. Furthermore, when the user does not take a cosmetic shot, the camera 3093 is closed and hidden in the interior of the function box 3, and the sealing cover 307 stays in a closed state, thus may protect user's privacy and improve safety of the bath mirror and the camera assembly 309. Moreover, because there will be water vapor generated from bathing of the user in the bathroom, sealing the camera assembly 309 within the function box 3 may prevent camera lens from being tainted with the water vapor, which may cause water stains, thereby ensuring clear shooting effect. Herein, the controller 308 should be electrically connected with the camera 3093, such that the controller 308 may control opening and closing of the camera 3093 and receive pictures sent by the camera 3093.
[0027] To improve user experience, the crank 3092 may further be configured in a retractable form, thus may conveniently adjust a vertical height of the camera 3093 to adapt to active objects with different heights. Furthermore, the revolving shaft 3091 may be designed to be a form slidable along a side face of the first luminescent board 3051, in this case it may facilitate the user to adjust a horizontal position of the camera 3093 as per requirement, thus may adjust the camera 3093 multi-directionally to facilitate user's use.
[0028] Referring to figure 5, the function box 3 is provided with a display panel 310 and a communication module 311 thereon. The controller 308 is connected with the display panel 310 and the communication module 311 respectively. When the camera 3093 completes a shot, the controller 308 sends pictures to the display panel 310. The display panel 310 stores and displays the shot pictures for user's reference and screening. After the user selects pictures, the pictures may be sent to a client terminal through the communication module 311. The communication module 311 may be a wifi module or a wireless communication module such as radiofrequency module and the like, which may specifically refer to the prior art, without need of being repeated in the application.
[0029] The smart bath mirror in embodiment 2 is integrated with lighting function and cosmetically shooting function. On the one hand, the above two functions are independent from each other, that is, the smart bath mirror may illuminate individually or cosmetically shoot individually. On the other hand, the above two functions are supplementary to each other. Even if the bathroom has lower illumination, lightness of spaces around the mirror face 1 may also be enhanced by a lighting system, thereby facilitating the user to experience a cosmetic shot. It should be noted that, as required for cosmetically shooting individually, the retractable luminescent board 305 should stay above the trigger switch 306 to prevent the trigger switch 306 from being triggered. In this way, the retractable luminescent board 305 will not be luminous. When the sealing cover 307 is opened, the camera 3093 may be rotated to the front of the mirror face 1. As required for illuminating and cosmetically shooting simultaneously, the retractable luminescent board 305 contacts and triggers the trigger switch 306, then a cosmetic shot may be taken under the illumination of the bath minor.
[0030] During the user's bathing within the bathroom, the minor face 1 will be tainted with water vapor. After the bathing, the user may use the bath minor effectively only by wiping the mirror face 1 using hand or tower, which causes inconvenient use of the bath minor and undesirable user experience. In this regard, based on the structure according to embodiment 1 or 2, in a smart bath mirror provided in embodiment 3 of the application, as illustrated in figure 6, the outer surface of the function box 3 is further provided with a humidity sensor 312 electrically connected with the controller 308, which is configured for sensing a current humidity state within a bathroom. If a detection value of humidity within the bathroom is greater than a threshold value, the mirror face I will be tainted with water vapor, and in this case the mirror face 1 is automatically wiped using a mirror wiping assembly 313.
100311 The mirror wiping assembly 313 is connected with the controller 308, wherein the mirror wiping assembly 313 includes a first rotating mirror wiper 3131 having a rotation end located on an upper portion of the frame 2 on left side, a second rotating minor wiper 3132 having a rotation end located on an upper portion of the frame 2 on right side, a third rotating mirror wiper 3133 and a fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 both having respective moving ends located on the frame 2 of the lower side, a height difference All being present between the moving end of the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 and the moving end of the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134. The length of the first rotating mirror wiper 3131 and the length of the second rotating mirror wiper 3132 are equal to the length of the side of the frame 2, so as to wipe the upper region of the mirror face 1 to the maximum.
100321 The moving ends of respective rotating mirror wipers included by the mirror wiping assembly 313 are provided with revolving shafts electrically connected with the controller 308.
The revolving shafts are configured for controlling rotations of the respective rotating mirror wipers, that is, for carrying out rotatory wiping. The respective rotating mirror wipers are made of a water absorbing material, such as a water absorbing sponge, which has a strong water absorbing capability and has a soft texture that may prevent the mirror face 1 from being scratched. Referring to figure 6, the rotation end of the first rotating mirror wiper 3131 is located on the upper portion of the frame 2 on left side, and a start position of the first rotating minor wiper 3131 is point a, and a terminal point of the rotary wiping is point a'. That is, a movement track region of the first rotating mirror wiper 3131 is Si, which needs to be rotated by 90 degrees. The rotation end of the second rotating mirror wipe 3132 is located on the upper portion of the frame 2 on right side, and a start position of the second rotating mirror wiper 3132 is point b, and a terminal point of the rotary wiping is point b'. That is, a movement track region of the second rotating mirror wiper 3132 is S2, which needs to be rotated by 90 degrees. 100331 When a detection value of the humidity sensor 312 is greater than a threshold value, the first rotating minor wiper 3131 is firstly controlled to rotate and wipe along the movement track region Si. When the first rotating minor wiper 3131 rotates to point a', the second rotating minor wiper 3132 is controlled to rotate and wipe along the movement track region 52 until travel to point b'. Then, the second rotating mirror wiper 3132 is controlled to reset from point b' to point b, and then the first rotating mirror wiper 3131 is controlled to reset from point a' to point a. That is, when the upper portion of the mirror face 1 is to be wiped, the first rotating minor wiper 3131 is firstly rotated, and then the second rotating mirror wiper 3132 is rotated; and in reset, the second rotating mirror wiper 3132 is firstly rotated, and then the first rotating minor wiper 3131 is rotated. The first rotating minor wiper 3131 is taken as an example for illustration. The first rotating minor wiper 3131 moves from point a to point a', and then returns to point a from point a', equivalent to the wiping of a left upper region of the mirror face 1 twice, thereby improving wiping effect and simultaneously further functioning for cleaning the mirror face 1.
100341 After the upper region of the mirror face 1 has been wiped, it is required to wipe a lower portion of the mirror face 1. In order to fully wipe the lower portion of the minor face 1 and prevent any missing wiping, lengths of the third rotating minor wiper 3133 and the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134 are required to be greater. Supposing that the length of the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 is L3, the length of the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 is L4, and a length of the frame on downside is L5, then there is L3+L4 > L5.
100351 Because L3+L4 > L5, the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 and the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134 may not be abutted each other on the same height, hence a height difference AH is designed to lay out the third rotating minor wiper 3133 and the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134 longitudinally. In order to reduce a width of the frame on downside, in this embodiment, the height difference AH satisfies AH=(Dl+D2)/2 and D 1 +D2 r D3, wherein D1 is a width of the third rotating mirror wiper 3133, D2 is a width of the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134, and D3 is the width of the frame on the lower side.
100361 When the lower region of the mirror face 1 is to be wiped, a start position of the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 is point c and a start position of the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 is point d. When the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 and the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134 rotate to point e, the entire minor face 1 may be fully wiped without any missing wiped region. Therefore, the third rotating minor wiper 3133 and the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 only need to rotate an angle f3, wherein f3 is less than 90 degrees. In a case where sizes of the to minor face 1, the frame 2 and the mirror wiping assembly 313 are fixed, the angle [3 is also a constant value, then only a rotation angle needs to be preset in the controller 308. The third rotating mirror wiper 3133 rotates from point c to point e to form a movement track region S3, and the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134 rotates from point d to point e to form a movement track region 54. Of course in an actual application, 13 may also be selected as 90 degrees, such that part of regions may be wiped repeatedly, thereby improving wiping effect.
[0037] After the upper region of the mirror face 1 has been wiped, the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 is firstly controlled to rotate and wipe along the movement track region S3. When the third rotating minor wiper 3133 rotates to point e, the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 is controlled to rotate and wipe along the movement track region S4 until it travels to point e.
Then the fourth rotating minor wiper 3134 is controlled to reset from point e to point d, and then the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 is controlled to reset from point e to point c. When the lower portion of the minor face 1 is to be wiped, the third rotating minor wiper 3133 is firstly rotated (that is, a rotating minor wiper located higher in a vertical direction is firstly rotated), and then the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 is rotated; and in reset, the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 is firstly rotated (that is, a rotating minor wiper located lower in the vertical direction is firstly rotated)), and then the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 is rotated.
[0038] After the mirror face 1 has been fully wiped with the minor wiping assembly 313, as illustrated in figure 7, the first rotating minor wiper 3131, the second rotating minor wiper 3132, the third rotating mirror wiper 3133 and the fourth rotating mirror wiper 3134 are all reset.
Because the respective rotating minor wipers are made of a water absorbing material having a higher water content therein, they may be naturally dried at a slower drying rate, which may lower the subsequent wiping effect, particularly in a shorter wiping interval. In this regard, in this embodiment, the frame 2 is a heating plate, whose operating state is controlled by the controller 308. After the mirror wiping assembly 313 completes wiping and has been reset, the controller 308 controls the frame 2 to heat up to dry the respective rotating mirror wipers, so as to realize a rapid drying. After drying, the heating of the frame 2 is stopped, and a residual temperature of the frame 2 may further dry the minor wiping assembly 313 until the frame 2 is cooled down.
[0039] As may be known from the above technical solutions, the application may provide a bath mirror with a safe and effective lighting manner according to user's activity state and ambient state within a bathroom, added with functions of cosmetically shooting and mirror face wiping, with respective functional components integrated in a sealed function box, which may not only have a function of dustproof and waterproof, but also be favorable for aesthetics of the bath mirror. The application improves intelligence of bathroom, satisfies requirements for modern smart bathroom, and dramatically improves user experience.
