Abstract

A Bluetooth beacon wireless communication terminal capable of detecting a Bluetooth beacon signal of a smartphone as an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range that prevents an unexpected accident that occurs when a person goes out without leaving a gas fire on the unintentional And recognizing the ID and the identification number of the beacon and automatically disconnecting the gas valve when the registered smart phone is moved away from the gas range by a predetermined distance or more.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to an automatic gas shutoff and control method for a gas range,

The present invention relates to an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range. More particularly, the present invention relates to an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range, in which, when a target object (user) is close to a gas range including a beacon communication module, The beacon signal is disconnected from the wireless beacon communication module when the object is remote from the device by recognizing the ID and identification number of the device and automatically disconnects the gas valve by using the fact that the ID and the identification number are not recognized To an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range.

When cooking for long periods of time in the gas range, it may be due to forgetfulness, or it may go out without gas lighting on the ground. This causes the pot placed on the range to overheat and burn the pot. There is a number that occurs.

In order to prevent such accident, there is a gas range equipped with an electronic timer. However, when the cooking is performed, the timer is operated and the gas valve is automatically shut off after a certain time, If it is set to a time shorter than the time, the gas valve may be automatically shut off due to the operation of the timer while cooking, so there may be inconvenience to set the timer time again. It is also not used for its own purpose such as using it, and in order to use the timer accurately, the cooking time should be predicted for each dish, so the user may be stressed to predict this time.

Korea Patent Publication No. 2001-0084540

In order to solve such a problem, in the present invention, when the object (user) is close to the gas range, the user's ID and identification number are transmitted from the smartphone to the user. When the user moves away from the gas range with the smartphone, And a method of automatically shutting off and controlling the gas in a gas range in which the gas valve is automatically shut off by using a failure to recognize the ID identification signal in the beacon communication module mounted on the gas range.

The automatic gas shutoff and control method in the gas range according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a self wireless beacon communication module and recognizes the position of a relative smart phone containing an application capable of communicating with each other, A wireless communication terminal for transmitting an ID and an identification number through the wireless communication terminal; And a gas valve driver for automatically supplying the gas.

As an embodiment related to the present invention, if the ID and the identification signal match each other, the beacon module monitors itself by comparing the ID received wirelessly with the identification signal. If the wireless beacon communication signal disappears from the smartphone, When the number is not recognized, the gas valve inside the gas range is automatically shut off.

As an embodiment related to the present invention, an object not having a beacon function such as a smart phone or a wireless terminal is provided with a timer function that can be manually set in its own wireless beacon communication module so that the gas range can be used. The user can easily recognize through the timer with corresponding timer and the function to shut off the gas valve when the set time passes, so that users without beacon function such as smart phone or wireless terminal can use the gas range do.

The automatic gas shutoff and control method in the gas range according to the present invention is a method for automatically shutting off and controlling the gas in the gas range when the user recognizes that the gas is far from the gas range and then cuts off the gas supply valve to leave the gas- Is prevented in advance.

1 is a view for explaining an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range according to the present invention.
2 is a flowchart illustrating an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range according to the present invention.

(Example 1)

1 is a view for explaining an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range according to the present invention.

1, a first wireless beacon communication terminal 100 equipped with an ID and a password application for communicating with a second wireless beacon communication module in an automatic gas shutoff and control method in a gas range to which the present invention is applied, And a gas valve shutoff device (200).

The first wireless beacon communication terminal 100 includes a smart phone or a wireless transmitting / receiving terminal.

The first wireless communication terminal 100 includes a first storage unit 110 storing an ID and an identification number application, and a first wireless beacon communication module 120.

A second storage unit 220 storing a self ID and an identification number of the gas valve cut-off device 200 and a second storage unit 220 storing a gas output through the first wireless beacon communication module 120 of the first wireless beacon communication terminal 100, A second wireless beacon communication module 210 receiving the range ID and the identification number, and an identification number of the gas range received and stored in advance through the second wireless beacon communication module 210, And a motor driving unit 230 that keeps the position in the current state and blocks the valve when the ID and the identification number are not received continuously.

And a manual timer unit 240 that configures the valve opening confirmation unit 250 and the LED display unit 260 during operation and enables the beacon wireless terminal to be used even if there is no beacon wireless terminal.

An operation flow of the automatic gas shutoff valve and the control method in the gas range configured as described above will be described below.

(Example 2)

2 is a flowchart illustrating an automatic gas shutoff valve and a control method in a gas range according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 2, it is checked whether the gas valve is opened in the gas valve opening confirmation unit 250 of the gas valve interrupter 200 (S110)

If it is determined in step S110 that the gas valve is open, it is determined whether the manual timer is operated (S120).

If it is determined in operation S120 that the predetermined time has elapsed (S170), the alarm alarm signal S180 is generated and the gas valve is closed (S190).

If it is determined in operation S120 that the manual timer is not operated (S120), the ID and identification number of the signal transmitted from the second wireless beacon communication module 210 are identified and stored in the second storage unit 220 (S130).

If it is determined that the ID and the identification number do not coincide with each other (S130), an alarm alarm is generated (S180) and the gas valve is closed through the motor driver 230 (S190).

If it is determined in step S130 that the ID registered in the second storage unit 220 is identical to the ID registered in the second storage unit 220, it is checked in step S150 whether the ID and the ID number are continuously recognized for a predetermined period of time through the timer S140.

As a result of the determination in S150, if the ID and the identification number are continuously recognized, the operation indicator LED (S160) is turned on.

As a result of the determination in step S150, if the ID and the identification number are not continuously recognized, an alarm alarm signal S180 is generated, and the gas valve is closed through the motor driving unit 230 (S190).
