Description

Construction method and equipment of private cloud for smart buildings

The present invention relates to the technical field of the Internet of Things (Internet of Things, IoT), in particular to a method and device for constructing a private cloud of a smart building.

Early buildings were only built with walls and roofs to shelter people from the wind and rain. With the evolution of the times, buildings began to build water, electricity, gas and other pipelines to make the supply of resources more convenient. Today, with the development of electronic equipment and communication networks, a variety of household appliances are necessary for buildings. However, these household appliances are usually purchased separately in the household space, they are fragmented and scattered, operate independently of each other, and will not produce synergy. Although the remote control can be used to operate multiple household appliances at the same time, this practice at most describes the interaction between the remote control and one household appliance, and does not describe the interaction between one household appliance and another household appliance.

The introduction of the Internet of Things heralds the possibility of interaction between various household appliances, which is expected to make the daily life of the resident space safer, more convenient, and more comfortable. For this reason, the layout planning and equipment construction of the building need to be carefully considered to meet the needs of compatibility and expansion. In view of the fact that the previous technologies did not take into account these needs, so that the implementation of the Internet of Things in buildings has been delayed, and there is an urgent need to propose an innovative integrated system.

On the other hand, FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a conventional smart building. This kind of smart building uses the central management office to monitor the lives of multiple residents A, B, and C. Although it is easy to manage in a unified manner, it affects the privacy of the residents.

Therefore, how to propose an innovative integrated system that takes into account the privacy rights of the occupants is also one of the subjects of the present invention.

(Smart Building Integration System)

FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of the spatial distribution of the smart building integration system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The smart building integration system 100 of the present invention is suitable to be installed in a building 1 . The building 1 is divided into a private space 10 and a public space 60 . Private space 10 is a space accessible to rights holders or persons with consent, such as a home or office; while public space 60 is a space that people can freely enter, such as a hall or corridor of a building. In the private space 10, a private host 2 and a control terminal device 3 are provided. The private host 2 and/or the control terminal device 3 are referred to as "the establishment equipment of the private cloud of the smart building" of the present invention; in Fig. 3, they are presented as two separate devices; however, in other embodiments, they can be integrated into a single device.

Please continue to refer to Figure 3. In the following, up, down, left, and right are just to facilitate finding the presence of the elements of FIG. 3, not the location. In the private space 10 of FIG. 3, the private host 2 is connected up to a network wired switch 64 in the house. The indoor network cable adapter 64 is connected to the control terminal device 3 to the left, and is connected to the optical fiber to the right via a router (not numbered) or a WiFi box and a modem, so that the Internet can be accessed. The control terminal device 3 is connected to the first I/O module to the right, and then connected to the existing electrical appliance (door sensor) 41, the existing electrical appliance (window sensor) 42, the emergency button (not marked), and the gas detector (not marked). label). private host 2 connect right To the electronic door lock 52, the temperature and humidity module 53, and the second I/O module. The second I/O module is also connected to many electrical appliances, which will not be described one by one here. The private host 2 is connected to the network cable adapter 64 on each floor to the left. The network cable adapters 64 on each floor are connected downward to the small outdoor station 51, leftward to the control terminal device 3, and upwardly connected to the public network cable adapter 64. At this point, the public domain 60 is entered.

In the public domain 60, the public host 61 is used as the core, and is connected to the access control device 62 (eg, a security management machine or a door operator), a detector 63 (eg, an outdoor illuminance meter or a motor vibration regularity detector), and control equipment (not numbered), and are connected to the optical fiber via a public network cable adapter 64, router (not numbered) or WiFi box and modem for Internet access. In addition, the public network cable adapter 64 is also connected to the right side of the intercom host (not numbered).

FIG. 4 shows a block diagram of a smart building integration system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

(Construction equipment for private cloud of smart buildings)

The private host 2 of the device for constructing the private cloud of the smart building of the present invention includes a controller 21 , a memory 22 , and a communicator 23 . The controller 21 is connected to the memory 22 and the communicator 23 .

The memory 22 of the private host 2 is configured to store a private cloud database PCD and a user control interface generating algorithm UCIGA.

The private cloud database PCD stores various existing model specifications M41, M42, M51, M52 of various existing electrical appliances 41, 42, 51, 52, and a parameter list classified from the various existing model specifications M41, M42, M51, M52 (parameter list)PL. The so-called "existing electrical appliances" refer to commercially available or general-purpose electrical appliances, which consumers can purchase from retail stores or e-commerce, rather than special or dedicated electrical appliances. As opposed to "existing electrical appliances", electrical appliances are referred to in this article as "new electrical appliances" or "updated models of existing electrical appliances". The so-called "new appliances" refer to groundbreaking appliances, while the so-called "updated models of existing appliances" refer to improved appliances. Various existing model specifications M41, M42, M51, M52 of the various existing electrical appliances 41, 42, 51, 52, and their specifications, such as power, voltage, current, frequency, torque, rotational speed, etc., have been stored in the private cloud The database is created in PCD. Most electrical appliances have common or compatible parameters. For example, most electrical appliances have parameters such as power, voltage, and current. These parameters are classified to constitute a plurality of common parameters of the "parameter list" PL. The parameter list PL is associated with the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA.

Of course, in addition to the common parameters, the private cloud database PCD can also store the respective non-common parameters (special parameters) extracted from the various existing model specifications M41, M42, M51, and M52. The respective non-common parameters of different appliances may require special procedures for special handling, so they can be listed in a separate list. The user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA will be described in more detail below.

The communicator 23 of the private host 2 is configured to perform wired communication or wireless communication, as shown in FIG. 3 , it can perform network communication via routers or WiFi boxes, modems, optical fibers, and the like. In particular, the controller 21 can be configured to read a common cloud database CCD via the communicator 23 to update the private cloud database PCD (private cloud database). This configuration only needs to be able to go to the address of the target and have permission to read the target. Usually, the public cloud database CCD is set up under construction A public cloud server (common cloud service) CCS outside the private space 10 of the building 1. The public cloud server CCS is preferably set at the end of the supplier (including the partner, the same below) who provides or builds the smart building integration system 100 of the present invention, and must be read through the network. The supplier will continue to collect the data (parameters) of the model M71 of the new electrical appliance 71 or the updated model M81 of the existing electrical appliance 81, and log them into the public cloud database CCD to meet the needs of updating the private cloud database PCD. However, the public cloud database CCD can also be installed in the public host 61 of the public space 60 of the building 1 , and the public host 61 is shown in FIG. 3 .

The controller 21 of the private host computer 2 is configured to accept a designation of several existing electrical appliances 41, 42, 51, 52 of the plurality of existing electrical appliances 41, 42, 51, 52 that have been set, and to accept the control according to the user. The interface generation algorithm UCIGA generates a command of a user control interface (UCI). Specifically, although the various existing models and specifications M41, M42, M51, and M52 of the various existing electrical appliances 41, 42, 51, and 52, and their specification parameters, such as power, voltage, current, frequency, torque, rotational speed, etc. , has been created in the private cloud database PCD, but the user may only use one or several of the existing electrical appliances (for example, the user may not need the mechanism of automatic window opening, so only use the door sensor 41, the small door machine 51 , and electronic door locks 52 without the use of window magnets 52). Which kinds of existing electrical appliances have been set by the user must be designated to the controller 21 of the private host 2 to prepare to generate the user control interface UCI. It should be noted that the controller 21 can be configured with an automatic designation function, that is, when the user connects the desired types of existing electrical appliances to the port 24, the controller 21 automatically designates the existing types of electrical appliances. electrical appliances. Next, the user must instruct the controller 21 of the private host 2 to generate a new user control interface UCI according to the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA.

In other words, in the present invention, the user control interface UCI will be regenerated according to which kinds of existing electrical appliances are set (preferably by one key), and there will be no idle interface or error interface. The so-called "idle interface" means that an electrical appliance has been removed, but the user control interface still retains the operating interface of the electrical appliance; The user control interface has not been increased or decreased to change the operation interface of these functions; these situations will cause operation troubles or operation errors to the user. By solving this problem, the present invention can meet the requirements of compatibility and expandability of smart buildings.

Without loss of generality, the personal host 2 further includes a plurality of ports 24 suitable for direct or indirect connection to the several existing electrical appliances 41 , 42 , 51 , 52 . Port 24 refers to a physical port (eg, a serial port) or a virtual port, or any form of communication interface in general.

The control terminal device 3 of the apparatus for constructing the private cloud of the smart building of the present invention is connected to the private host 2 . The control terminal device 3 is applied with the generated user control interface UCI, so as to allow the user to control the several existing electrical appliances 41 , 42 , 51 , 52 that have been set through the user control interface UCI. The control terminal device 3 can be a touch panel 31 , and the associated user control interface UCI is a graphic control interface UCI_G. Alternatively, the control terminal device 3 can be a smart speaker 32, and the matched user control interface UCI is the voice control interface UCI_V. The control terminal device 3 can also cooperate with the detectors all over the private space 10 of the building 1 to automatically control the several existing electrical appliances 41 , 42 , 51 , 52 . In this article, user control interface refers to computer software for human-computer interaction, which can exist in the form of computer program products or computer-readable recording media.

(User Control Interface Generation Algorithm)

The user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA of the present invention is configured to receive a requirement list (requirement list) RL, and associate the requirement list RL with the parameter list PL to generate associated data, And map the associated data to the user control interface UCI. The requirement list RL records a plurality of discrete values or a continuous value range of a plurality of parameters, respectively corresponding to the several existing electrical appliances 41 , 42 , 51 , and 52 that have been set.

The conventional user control interface needs to be "customized", and it is labor-intensive and time-consuming to recreate every time the user's needs change. For example, every time a user decides to switch to another type of electrical appliance, since different electrical appliances have different specifications, the supplier must re-investigate the specifications of the other type of electrical appliance. In this regard, the present invention has established a private cloud database PCD, which stores various existing model specifications of various existing electrical appliances, and obtains the parameter list PL by classification, which can easily solve the problem of changing models.

For another example, whenever the user decides to modify the options required by the user control interface, the supplier must hand over the engineer or designer to manually modify the source code or model file of the user control interface. In this regard, the present invention has built a user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA, which can easily solve the problem of modifying options.

FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of a user control interface generation algorithm of the present invention, taking an electric light as an example.

First, the user selects a light bulb of a certain model ML, which has already been registered in the private cloud database PCD of the memory 22 of the private host 2, and its specifications are also listed in the parameter list PL of the light bulb. The user is given a list of requirements RL for electric lamps, which he wishes to control in the following way: . Brightness includes discrete states of off, dark, medium and bright (these discrete states exist in the form of discrete numerical values in the computer, the same applies hereinafter);. Color temperature is a continuous numerical range between 4000°K~4500°K; . The irradiation direction includes front and rear discrete states.

Next, the user inputs the demand list RL of electric lamps into the private host 2 . The controller 21 activates the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA, and accesses the parameter list PL of the electric lamp. The parameter list PL of the lamp shows the specifications and parameters of the lamp of this type ML as follows: . Brightness can be between 0 lumens ~ 4000 lumens;. Color temperature can be between 1800°K~16000°K;. The irradiation direction can be between 0° and 360°.

The user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA associates the demand list RL of the electric lamp with the parameter list PL of the electric lamp, and generates the relevant data of the electric lamp. The data associated with this lamp makes:

. Brightness "off" corresponds to 0 lumens, brightness "dark" corresponds to 1000 lumens, brightness "medium" corresponds to 2000 lumens, and brightness "bright" corresponds to 4000 lumens. Among them, the general user may not know how bright the electric light is in dark, medium and bright, but the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA of the present invention automatically completes the planning for the user.

. The color temperature is between 4000°K~4500°K. Among them, although this type of ML lamp can provide a color temperature between 1800°K and 16000°K, the user only needs a color temperature between 4000°K and 4500°K.

. The irradiation direction "front" corresponds to 0°, and the irradiation direction "rear" corresponds to 180°. Among them, although the electric lamp of this type ML can be rotated 0°~360°, the user only needs to rotate it to the front or the back.

Then, the user control interface UCI of the generated lamp is displayed at the bottom of FIG. 5 . The user can press the left triangle key to decrease the value or select the option hidden on the left, or press the right triangle key to increase the value or select the option hidden on the right. For example, if the user presses the left triangle key on the brightness (currently "medium"), the brightness will jump to "dark". For another example, if the user presses the right triangle key on the color temperature (currently "4000°K"), the color temperature will jump to "4001°K". For the convenience of operation, it is appropriate to change the continuous range by an integer.

In addition, the user control interface UCI of the generated light is not only suitable for the graphic control interface, but also for the voice control interface. The action of pressing the left triangle key can be changed to a voice command such as "decrease", and pressing the right triangle key The action of the keys can be changed to sound commands such as "increase".

It should be understood that the supplier will continue to collect the data (parameters) of the model M71 of the new electrical appliance 71 or the updated model M81 of the existing electrical appliance 81, and log them into the public cloud database CCD to meet the needs of updating the private cloud database PCD. , so the specifications (parameters) of various electrical appliances will be more and more complete in the private cloud database PCD of the present invention.

FIG. 6 shows a schematic diagram of a user control interface generation algorithm of the present invention, taking an air conditioner as an example.

Similarly, first, the user selects an air conditioner of a certain model MA. The air conditioner of this type MA has already been registered in the private cloud database PCD of the memory 22 of the private host 2, and its specifications are also listed in the parameter list PL of the air conditioner. The user is given a list of air-conditioning requirements RL, and he wishes to control the air-conditioning in the following ways: . Functions include discrete states of air conditioning and air supply;. Temperature is a continuous range of values between 20°C and 30°C;. Wind speed includes strong, medium and weak discrete states; . There is no special requirement for the downward swing angle; . The left and right swing angle is fixed.

Next, the user inputs the air-conditioning demand list RL into the private host 2 . The controller 21 activates the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA, and accesses the parameter list PL of the air conditioner. The parameter list of air-conditioning PL shows that the specifications and parameters of the air-conditioning of this type ML are as follows: . Functions can include air conditioning, air supply, dehumidification;. The temperature can be between 16°C ~ 30°C; . The wind speed can be between 0m ³ /s~60m ³ /s;. The downward swing angle can be between 10°~65°;. The left and right swing angle can be between 45° left and 45° right.

The user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA associates the air-conditioning demand list RL with the air-conditioning parameter list PL to generate air-conditioning related data. The associated data for this air conditioner makes:

. Functions include air conditioning and ventilation. Among them, since the user does not need the function of dehumidification, it is omitted.

. The temperature is between 20°C and 30°C. Among them, although the air conditioner of this type MA can provide a temperature between 16°C and 30°C, the user only needs to have a temperature between 20°C and 30°C.

. "Weak" wind speed corresponds to 15m ³ /s, "Medium" wind speed corresponds to 30m ³ /s, and "strong" wind speed corresponds to 60m ³ /s. Among them, the general user may not know how fast the weak, medium and strong wind speed of the air-conditioning is, but the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA of the present invention automatically completes the planning for the user.

． The downward swing angle is between 10° and 65°. Among them, after all, the user has no special requirements for the downward swing angle, and the downward swing angle of 10°~65° that can be provided by the air conditioner of this type of MA can be directly applied.

. The left and right swing angles are not displayed to achieve the requirement of "fixed" motion.

Then, the user control interface UCI of the generated cold air is displayed at the bottom of FIG. 6 . The user can press the left triangle key to decrease the value or select the option hidden on the left, or press the right triangle key to increase the value or select the option hidden on the right. It is worth mentioning that because the left and right swing angles are fixed, it means that no control is required, and its control options do not need to appear in the user control interface UCI.

Regarding non-common parameters, taking air conditioners as an example, a certain type of air conditioners may have a "humidifier", which is not a common function of general air conditioners, so special procedures are required for special treatment. For example, the user control interface generation algorithm UCIGA can be configured to pop out a dialog window and ask to input the humidity range provided by the humidifier of this type of air-conditioning, as a basis for generating the associated data.

Fig. 10 is a plan view of a floor of an embodiment of the present invention.

The modular switching box 11 is arranged on each wiring node N on the floor. The modular switch box 11 is designed according to the parameter list PL, such as power, voltage, current and other parameters therein, so as to meet the safety conditions for electricity consumption. For example, the modular junction box 11 arranged in the low current area does not have the branch wire jack 1101 for connecting the high current.

In addition, the modular transfer box 11 is reserved for the possibility of connecting to the main pipe 12 for branch pipes 13 that may be added in the future. The modular switch box 11 can usually be located in the corner of the room so as not to hinder people's activities. The modular switch box 11 can also be concealed by decorative partitions to maintain the appearance and cleanliness of the interior.

In addition, the method for constructing a private cloud for a smart building of the present invention may further include step S9, which is a "public setting step": setting a public host 61 in a public space 60 of the building 1 .

Further, the access of the public host 61 to the private host 2 is enabled or disabled by a user through the user control interface UCI. The public host 61 may need to collect the data of the private host 2, such as electricity meter, water meter, gas meter, etc., or to confirm that the resident is at home or out. As mentioned above, the present invention emphasizes the privacy or autonomy of the occupants. Therefore, the present invention designs that the user can enable or disable the access of the public host 61 to the private host 2 through the user control interface UCI. Of course, the model of the public host 61 is also archived in the private cloud database PCD of the private host 2 .

On the other hand, the access of the private host 2 to the public host 61 is performed by a user through the user control interface UCI. For example, the public host 61 may store certain electronic newspapers, electronic coupons, community announcements, or photos or videos of community activities, etc., and residents can freely request from the public host 61 through the private host 2 .

It can be seen that, in the present invention, the public host 61 cooperates with the private host 2, unlike the conventional technology shown in FIG.

Although the present invention has been described by the above-mentioned embodiments, it should be understood that many other modifications and changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention and the scope of the patent application.
