Description

저전력 열림감지 센서를 이용한 전력제어 시스템{Power control system using low-power open detection sensor}[0001] The present invention relates to a power control system using a low-power open detection sensor,

본 발명은 네트워크를 통한 전력제어 시스템에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 냉난방장치의 문 등에 열림 감지 센서를 장착하여 문이 열리거나 닫히는 경우 이를 감지하여 냉난방장치에 공급되는 전원을 자동으로 차단하고, 또한 네트워크를 통하여 외부에서 원격제어가 가능한 기술에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a power control system through a network, and more particularly, to a power control system through a network, and more particularly to a power control system through a network, And a technique capable of remote control from the outside through a network.

일반적으로, 사무실, 가정 등의 건축물에는 전원을 연결하는 컨트롤러가 구비되는데, 이러한 컨트롤러는 별도의 온 (ON)/오프(OFF) 스위치 회로가 없어 중앙의 분전반에서만 온/오프가 가능하다. In general, buildings such as offices and homes are provided with a controller for connecting power sources. Such a controller does not have a separate ON / OFF switch circuit, and can be turned on / off only in the central distribution panel.

따라서, 냉장고나 컴퓨터 등과 같은 가전기기를 컨트롤러에 꽂아 두는 경우 불필요한 대기전력이 소비되는 문제점이 있었다.Therefore, there is a problem in that unnecessary standby power is consumed when household appliances such as a refrigerator and a computer are plugged into the controller.

이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 컨트롤러에 스위치가 부착된 멀티탭(멀티 컨트롤러)을 이용하여 개별적으로 콘센트의 전원을 온/오프하는 방식이 널리 사용되고 있다. In order to solve such a problem, a method of turning on / off the power of an outlet separately using a multi-tap (multi-controller) having a switch attached to the controller is widely used.

그러나 이러한 종래의 방법은 전원을 차단하기 위해서 각각의 컨트롤러 또는 멀티탭의 위치를 찾아 개별적으로 온/오프 스위치를 조작해야 하는 불편함이 있고, 멀티탭의 전선이 길게 배치되어 미관을 해치며, 컨트롤러가 가구나 구조물에 가려져 있는 경우 조작이 어려운 단점이 있었 다.However, this conventional method has a disadvantage in that it is inconvenient to find the position of each controller or multi-tab and turn on / off the switch individually to cut off the power, and the wires of the multi-tap are arranged long, It is difficult to control the structure when it is covered by the structure.

이에 따라, 등록특허공보 제10-1048904호("전력선 통신을 이용한 컨트롤러 및 전기기기의 전원제어장치", 2011.07.06 등록)와 같이 건축물의 전원공급용 컨트롤러 및 각종 전기기기들의 전원공급을 원격지에서 차단할 수있는 기술이 공개된 바 있으나, 이러한 기술도 가구 내의 컨트롤러의 전원 온/오프를 제어하기 위해 별도의 홈 게이트웨이를 이용하는 등 홈 전체를 통제하는 홈네트워크를 구축해야 하는 단점이 있었다.Accordingly, the power supply controller for the building and various electric devices such as the registered patent publication No. 10-1048904 (registered in July, 2011, as the "power supply controller for controller and electric device using power line communication" However, this technique has a disadvantage in that a home network for controlling the entire home has to be constructed by using a separate home gateway in order to control power on / off of the controller in the household.

도 1 내지 도 4에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명의 일 실시예가 제안하는 전력시스템(1)은 센서부(3)와, 전력 공급경로상에 배치된 컨트롤러(5)가 무선방식에 의하여 서로 연동되고, 또한 네트워크(N)를 통하여 외부의 이동통신기기(9) 및 서버(7)에 연결됨으로써 원격제어가 가능하다.1 to 4, a power system 1 proposed by an embodiment of the present invention includes a sensor unit 3 and a controller 5 disposed on a power supply path, And can be remotely controlled by being connected to the external mobile communication device 9 and the server 7 via the network N. [

이러한 시스템(1)은 냉난방장치(11)의 도어에 장착되어 개폐를 감지하는 센서부(3)와; 센서부(3)와 무선방식에 의하여 연동함으로써 전원을 공급하거나 차단하는 스마트 컨트롤러(5)와; 센서부(3) 및 스마트 컨트롤러(5)와 네트워크(N)를 통하여 연결되는 서버(7)와; 이동통신기기(9)를 포함한다.The system (1) includes a sensor unit (3) mounted on a door of the cooling / heating unit (11) to detect opening / closing thereof; A smart controller 5 for supplying or cutting off power by interlocking with the sensor unit 3 in a wireless manner; A server 7 connected to the sensor unit 3 and the smart controller 5 through a network N; And a mobile communication device 9.

이러한 구조를 갖는 시스템(1)에 있어서,In the system 1 having such a structure,

상기 센서부(3)는 도어의 개폐를 감지하는 열림감지 센서(20)와; 센서에 의하여 감지된 신호를 컨트롤러(5) 및 네트워크를 통하여 이동 통신기기(9)로 전송하는 저전력 통신모듈(22)과; 전원부(24) 및 안테나(26)를 포함한다.The sensor unit (3) includes an open detection sensor (20) for detecting opening and closing of a door; A low power communication module (22) for transmitting a signal sensed by the sensor to the mobile communication device (9) via the controller (5) and the network; A power supply unit 24, and an antenna 26.

상기 열림감지 센서(20)는 도어의 개폐를 감지할 수 있는 센서이면 모두 포함하며, 예를 들면 마그네틱 센서를 적용할 수 있다.The open sensor 20 may be any sensor capable of detecting opening and closing of a door, for example, a magnetic sensor.

이러한 마그네틱 센서는 통상적인 구조의 마그네틱 소자를 의미하는 바, 예를 들면, 컨덕터(Conductor) 소자와, 마그네트(Magnet) 소자와, 리드 스위치(32)로 구성된다. 이때, 도어에는 마그네틱 소자가 장착되고 도어가 결합되어 닫혀지는 도어 프레임에는 컨덕터 소자가 장착된다. The magnetic sensor means a conventional magnetic device, for example, a conductor element, a magnet element, and a reed switch 32. At this time, the door element is mounted on the door frame where the magnetic element is mounted on the door and the door is closed.

따라서, 도어가 닫힘에 따라 마그네트 소자가 접근하면 자력에 의하여 리드 스위치(32)가 작동함으로써 도어의 닫힘 신호를 발생한다. 반대로, 도어가 개방되는 경우, 마그네트 소자가 컨덕터 소자로부터 분리되면 리드 스위치(32)에 작용하는 자력이 해소됨으로써 도어의 열림신호가 발생된다.Therefore, when the magnet element approaches as the door is closed, the reed switch 32 is operated by the magnetic force to generate a door closing signal. On the contrary, when the door is opened, the magnetic force acting on the reed switch 32 is released when the magnet element is separated from the conductor element, thereby generating an opening signal of the door.

결국, 열림감지센서(20)는 냉난방 장치(11)의 도어가 개폐됨을 감지하여 관련 신호를 전송하게 된다.As a result, the opening detection sensor 20 senses that the door of the air conditioner 11 is opened or closed and transmits a related signal.

상기 저전력 통신모듈(22)은 이와 같이 센서에 의하여 감지된 신호를 네트워크를 통하여 외부로 전송하게 된다.The low power communication module 22 transmits the signal sensed by the sensor to the outside through the network.

이러한 저전력 통신모듈(22)(LPWAN;low-power wide area network)은 센서로부터 수신된 신호를 블루투스 혹은 Wifi신호로 변환하여 송출한다.The low-power communication module 22 (LPWAN) converts a signal received from the sensor into a Bluetooth signal or a Wifi signal and transmits the signal.

상기 저전력 장거리 통신방식은 서비스 범위가 10 km 이상의 광역으로 매우 넓고, 초당 최대 수백 킬로비트(kbps) 이하의 통신 속도를 제공하는 전력 소모가 적은 무선 광역 통신망을 의미한다. 주로 사물 인터넷(IoT) 전용 네트워크로 사용된다. The low-power long-distance communication method refers to a wireless wide-area communication network having a wide range of service range of 10 km or more, which consumes less power and provides a communication speed of several hundred kilobits (kbps) or less per second. It is mainly used as a dedicated Internet (IoT) network.

그리고, 저전력 장거리 통신방식은 로라(LoRaWAN), 시그폭스(SIGFOX), 엘티이-엠티시(LTE-MTC:LTE Machine-Type Communications), 협대역 사물 인터넷(NB-IoT) 방식 등으로 구분된다.Low-power long distance communication methods are classified into LoRaWAN, SIGFOX, LTE-MTC (LTE Machine-Type Communications), and Narrowband Internet (NB-IoT).

또한, 상기 저전력 장거리 통신방식은 하나의 BLE 디바이스가 다른 BLE 디바이스의 정보를 전달하는 메쉬 네트워크 기능도 가능하다.In addition, the low-power long-distance communication method can also function as a mesh network in which one BLE device transmits information of another BLE device.

그리고, 상기 전원부(24)는 센서부(3)에 전원을 공급하는 기능을 수행하며, 다양한 방식의 전원공급장치가 적용가능하며, 예를 들면 코일 셀(Coin cell) 등을 포함할 수 있다.The power supply unit 24 functions to supply power to the sensor unit 3, and various power supply units are applicable. For example, the power supply unit 24 may include a coin cell.

이와 같이, 센서부(3)는 냉난방 장치(11) 등에 장착된 도어의 개폐여부를 감지하여 열림 감지 신호를 외부로 전송하는 바, 벽체에 구비된 컨트롤러(5)에 전송할 수 있다.In this way, the sensor unit 3 senses whether or not the door installed in the cooling / heating unit 11 is open or closed, and transmits the open detection signal to the outside, and can transmit the opening detection signal to the controller 5 provided in the wall.

상기 컨트롤러(5)는 벽체에 구비된 배전함의 내부에 장착되며, 가정용 전원의 공급 경로상에 배치되어 전원을 차단하거나 인가한다.The controller 5 is installed inside a distribution box provided in the wall, and is disposed on a supply path of the domestic power supply to cut off or apply power.

이러한 컨트롤러(5)는 센서부(3)로부터 전송된 열림감지 신호를 수신하는 수신모듈(30)과; 수신된 신호에 따라 전원을 차단하거나 인가하는 릴레이 스위치(32)를 포함한다.The controller 5 includes a reception module 30 for receiving an open detection signal transmitted from the sensor unit 3; And a relay switch 32 for shutting off or applying power according to the received signal.

따라서, 수신모듈(30)은 수신된 신호가 도어의 열림신호인 경우, 냉난방 장치(11)의 도어가 개방된 것으로 판단하여 릴레이 스위치(32)를 작동시킴으로써 해당 냉난방장치(11)로 인가되는 전원을 차단함으로써 전력의 과소모를 방지하게 된다.Accordingly, when the received signal is the opening signal of the door, the receiving module 30 determines that the door of the air conditioner 11 is opened, and operates the relay switch 32 so that the power supplied to the heating / Thereby preventing unduly low power consumption.

반대로, 도어의 닫힘신호가 수신되는 경우, 도어가 닫히는 것으로 판단하여 릴레이 스위치(32)를 작동시킴으로써 해당 냉난방 장치(11)로 전원을 다시 인가하게 된다.On the contrary, when a door closing signal is received, the door is determined to be closed, and the relay switch 32 is operated to apply power to the corresponding heating / cooling apparatus 11 again.

그리고, 상기 이동 통신기기(9)는 센서부(3)로 부터 전송된 신호를 수신하여 해당 냉난방 장치(11)의 현재 작동 상태를 용이하게 확인할 수 있다.The mobile communication device 9 receives the signal transmitted from the sensor unit 3 and can easily confirm the current operating state of the cooling / heating device 11. [

즉, 이러한 이동 통신기기(9)는 다양한 종류가 적용될 수 있으며, 예를 들면 스마트폰을 의미한다. That is, various types of mobile communication devices 9 can be applied, for example, smartphones.

상기 스마트폰에 전력제어 관련 앱을 탑재하고, 이 앱을 활성화시킴으로써 스마트폰의 화면상에서 냉난방 장치(11)의 현재 상태를 확인할 수 있다. The current state of the heating / cooling apparatus 11 can be confirmed on the screen of the smartphone by mounting the power control related app on the smart phone and activating the app.

이때, 스마트폰은 탑재된 블루투스 통신모듈(22)을 통하여 센서부(3)와 신호를 송수신함으로써 관련 데이터를 얻거나 전송할 수 있다.At this time, the smartphone can transmit / receive signals to / from the sensor unit 3 via the Bluetooth communication module 22, thereby obtaining or transmitting the related data.

이러한 스마트폰의 화면에는 냉난방 장치(11)의 현 상태에 대한 다양한 정보가 표시될 수 있다.Various information on the current state of the air conditioner 11 can be displayed on the screen of the smartphone.

예를 들면, 스마트폰의 인접한 장소에 배치된 다양한 센서부(3)의 목록 및 형재 상태가 표시될 수 있으며, 사용자는 이 목록을 확인함으로써 다양한 냉난방 장치(11) 각각의 현재 상태를 실시간으로 확인할 수 있다.For example, the list of the various sensor units 3 arranged at the adjacent places of the smartphone and the state of the shape of the mold can be displayed. By confirming the list, the user can check the current state of each of the various heating / .

따라서, 이러한 스미트폰을 이용하여 원격지에서도 냉난방 장치(11)를 켜거나 끌수 있다.Accordingly, it is possible to turn on / off the heating / cooling apparatus 11 at a remote place by using such a smart phone.

또한, 각 센서부(3)에 장착된 전원부(24)의 잔여 전기량도 조회할 수 있어서, 적절한 시기에 배터리를 교환할 수 있다.Also, the remaining electricity quantity of the power supply unit 24 mounted on each sensor unit 3 can be inquired, and the battery can be replaced at an appropriate time.

한편, 본 발명의 다른 실시예로서 센서부(3)를 네트워크를 통하여 브릿지(15)와 연동시킴으로써 방범용으로도 사용할 수 있다.Meanwhile, as another embodiment of the present invention, the sensor unit 3 can be used for crime prevention by interlocking with the bridge 15 through the network.

즉, 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 실시예에 따른 시스템(1)은 컨트롤러(5)를 대신하여 브릿지(15)를 연계시킨 차이점이 있다.That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the system 1 according to the present embodiment has a difference in which the bridge 15 is connected in place of the controller 5.

그리고, 상기 브릿지(15)는 센서부(3)로부터 전송된 신호를 수신하여 WiFi 또는 이더넷을 이용하여 서버로 전송하게 된다.The bridge 15 receives the signal transmitted from the sensor unit 3 and transmits the signal to the server using WiFi or Ethernet.

따라서, 센서부(3)를 일반 도어에 장착한 경우, 도어가 열리면 센서부(3)는 이를 감지하여 신호를 전송하게 되고, 브릿지(15)는 이 신호를 수신하여 WiFi 또는 이더넷을 이용하여 서버로 전송하게 되며, 서버는 수신된 열림/닫힘 데이터를 저장하여 이력관리함으로써 출입을 감시할 수 있다.Therefore, when the sensor unit 3 is mounted on the general door, when the door is opened, the sensor unit 3 senses the signal and transmits the signal. The bridge 15 receives the signal and transmits the signal to the server (WiFi or Ethernet) And the server can monitor the access by storing the received open / close data and managing the history.

상기 서버(S)는 중계기(8)로부터 수신한 데이터를 수신하고, 이 데이터를 분류 및 분석하여 데이터베이스(47)에 저장한다.It said server (S) receives the data received from the repeater 8, and the classification and analysis of this data is stored in the database 47.

즉, 서버(S)는 신호 입력부와, 입력된 신호를 분석하여 도어의 개폐여부를 분석하여 침입여부를 판단하는 판단부와, 도어의 개폐 이력이 저장되는 데이터 베이스를 포함한다.That is, the server S includes a signal input unit, a determination unit for analyzing the input signal to analyze whether the door is opened or closed to determine whether the door is intruded, and a database in which the door opening / closing history is stored.

또한, 센서부(3)에서 발생되는 블루투스 신호는 브릿지(15) 뿐만 아니라 인근의 스마트폰과 같은 이동 통신기기(9)에도 전송될 수 있다.The Bluetooth signal generated by the sensor unit 3 can be transmitted not only to the bridge 15 but also to a mobile communication device 9 such as a nearby smart phone.

따라서, 사용자는 이러한 스마트폰에 관련 앱을 탑재하여 활성화시킴으로써 센서부(3)로부터 전송되는 신호를 수신할 수 있고, 이를 통하여 현재 도어의 상태를 감시할 수 있다.Accordingly, the user can receive the signal transmitted from the sensor unit 3 by loading and activating the related application in the smartphone, thereby monitoring the current state of the door.
