The relevant functional units of the controller 211 are described further below. Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a block diagram of a specific implementation manner of the controller 211, as shown in fig. 3, the controller 211 further includes a door lock detection unit 201, an information acquisition unit 202, and a ring operation unit 203, where:

and the door lock detection unit 201 is used for detecting the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system. Specifically, under the general condition, after the resident carries out the back locking operation to the door, the spring bolt that the lock was used for the back locking can stretch out the sensor that the touching set up, and the sensor can generate a signal that instructs the door to be locked by the back, consequently can judge current lock state through detecting this signal. When the visitor executes the ring pressing operation, the device can actively acquire the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system so as to judge the subsequent prompt operation.

An information obtaining unit 202, configured to obtain visitor information of a visitor and/or a preset ring of a doorbell system. Specifically, the preset ring of the doorbell system includes any one of silence and ring, the visitor information of the visitor may be at least one of an image of the visitor and a sound of the visitor, and the image of the visitor may be one or more of a visible light image, a depth image, and an infrared image, which may be acquired by the camera 300 in fig. 1. Both the image of the visitor and the voice of the visitor may be processed by the controller 211 of the apparatus to determine the visitor type of the visitor.

And a bell operating unit 203 for determining an optimal way of notifying a resident of a visitor in the home in conjunction with a door lock state of the door and a preset bell of the doorbell system, or the door lock state of the door and a visitor type. Specifically, the ring operation unit sets a mapping relationship between a judgment condition (for example, a door lock state of a door and a preset ring of a doorbell system, or a door lock state of the door and a visitor type) and a prompt operation, and when a visitor performs a ring pressing operation, the ring operation unit performs a corresponding prompt operation according to the mapping relationship to notify the visitor in the household of the visitor.

The door lock state mentioned above can be used to determine whether a person is present at home, because, in general, when a resident leaves home and goes out for business, it is necessary to not only close the door but also perform a back locking operation to improve security. Therefore, the condition that the door lock state is the unlocking state indicates that no person is in the house of the resident, and the condition that the door lock state is not the unlocking state indicates that the person is in the house of the resident. Figure 4 provides a cross-sectional view of one possible door lock configuration for a door to be mounted thereon for a better understanding of the state of the door lock.

Referring to fig. 4, the door lock 100 shown in fig. 4 includes a door lock outer panel 101, a handle 102, a lock body 103, a slant latch bolt 104, and a square latch bolt 105. It should be noted that the inclined locking tongue 104 is mainly used to close the door after the resident applies force to close the door, the inclined locking tongue 104 is connected with the spring in the lock body 103, when the external force is applied by the person, the inclined locking tongue 104 will be retracted into the lock body 103, and when the external force disappears, the inclined locking tongue 104 automatically protrudes out of the lock body 103. The square bolt 105 is mainly used to improve the safety of the door lock, when the square bolt 105 receives an applied rotation force, it protrudes out of the lock body 103 to lock the door where the door lock is located, and if the square bolt 105 retracts into the lock body 103, it needs to receive a rotation force opposite to the force when the square bolt protrudes out of the lock body 103. Therefore, when the square bolt 105 protrudes out of the lock body 103, the door lock state of the corresponding door is the back lock, and when the square bolt 105 retracts out of the lock body 103, the door lock state of the corresponding door is not the back lock.

It should be noted that the shape of the oblique bolt and the square bolt in the door lock may also be circular or other shapes, and the application is not limited specifically.

Referring to fig. 5, based on the above-described ringing device, an asynchronous ringing method provided by the embodiment of the present application is described below, which includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:

step 301, detecting the ring-pressing operation of the visitor to the doorbell system.

In the embodiment of the application, a switch is arranged in the doorbell outdoor unit. When a visitor rings, the doorbell outdoor unit is subjected to external force to enable the switch to be closed, a switch closing signal is generated in a corresponding circuit and sent to the controller 211 of the device 200, and the controller 211 can determine whether the person rings or not by detecting the switch closing signal.

In an embodiment of this application, the doorbell off-premises station can with spring coupling, and the visitor is according to the spring atress when ringing, detects power through power detection sensor and can judge whether someone has carried out according to the bell operation. In some possible embodiments, the force detection sensor may be a resistance strain gauge sensor, which is composed of an elastic element, which may be a spring, a diaphragm, etc., a resistance strain gauge, which may be a resistance wire, a semiconductor, etc., and a measurement conversion circuit. The pressing force detection module may also be a piezoelectric sensor, which is a sensor made of some dielectric materials that generate a piezoelectric effect when subjected to an external force, such as piezoelectric crystals (e.g., quartz crystals, potassium sodium tartrate, etc.), piezoelectric ceramics (e.g., barium titanate, lead zirconate titanate, etc.), and organic piezoelectric materials (e.g., zinc oxide, gallium arsenide, cadmium sulfide, etc.).

And step 302, detecting the door lock state of a door corresponding to the doorbell system.

In the embodiment of the application, before detecting the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system, the validity of the bell-pressing operation needs to be determined, and the specific steps are as follows: and counting the pressing times of the doorbell system for the visitor to perform the ring pressing operation within the preset time, and detecting the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system when the pressing times are larger than or equal to a preset threshold value. The preset time period may be 2s, 3s, 5s, 10s, or any other value. The preset threshold may be 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 or other values. It should be noted that the purpose of determining the effectiveness of the ring-down operation is to avoid ring-down of people such as promotion, kids of pranks, etc., and their ring-down mode is usually left without response, and the ring-down operation is performed less frequently within a certain period of time.

In the embodiment of the application, after the validity of the ring-pressing operation is determined, the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system is detected, and the door lock state can be used for representing whether a person is in the house of a resident or not. Specifically, whether a square bolt of the door lock in fig. 4 protrudes or protrudes may be detected through a pressure sensor or a touch sensor in the device, if the square bolt protrudes or protrudes, the pressure sensor or the touch sensor may generate a change signal to be sent to the device 200 in fig. 1, and at this time, it is detected that the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system is the back lock; if the square lock tongue does not extend out or protrude, the pressure sensor or the touch sensor does not generate a change signal, and the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system is detected to be not the back locking.

In another embodiment of the present application, the material of the square bolt in the door lock is usually metal, a magnetic switch may be built in the door lock, and the door lock state of the door is determined according to the closing state of the magnetic switch, that is, when the door is reversely locked by a resident, the square bolt protrudes out of the lock body and approaches the magnetic switch, the magnetic switch is closed, and at this time, the corresponding door lock state is reverse locking; when the door is not reversely locked, the square bolt retracts into the lock body and is far away from the magnetic switch, the magnetic switch is disconnected, and the corresponding door lock is in a non-reverse locking state. Therefore, if the device 200 detects the closing signal of the magnetic switch, it can determine that the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system is the lock reversal, otherwise, the door lock state is the lock reversal.

And step 303, when the door lock state of the door is the back lock state, closing a preset ring of the doorbell system and/or sending first prompt information to the user terminal.

It should be noted that the preset ringing of the doorbell system is preset by a resident on the doorbell indoor unit, and the preset ringing includes any one of ringing and muting. The resident sets the preset ring of the doorbell system according to the work and rest time of the resident. For example, a resident sets preset rings of two time periods of "1: 00p.m. -2:00 a.m." and "10: 00p.m. -7:00 a.m." to be silent on the device, and preset rings of the doorbell system of the rest of the time periods are rings.

In the embodiment of the application, when the device detects that the door lock state is the back lock state, it indicates that no one is at home, the controller 211 of the device can turn off the preset ring of the doorbell system to save the electric energy of the device, and the controller 211 can also send first prompt information to the user terminal of the resident to remind the visitor of visiting, wherein the first prompt information carries indication information of the ring pressing operation. For example, the first prompt message may be a short message indicating "visited by visitor", APP message push, wechat public number message push, or the like.

In another embodiment of the application, when the device detects that the door lock state is the back lock state, the controller 211 of the device can also obtain an image of a visitor shot by the camera, the controller 211 can identify the visitor by using a depth learning model (or called a depth neural network model) trained in advance according to the image, the identification result can be an acquaintance or a stranger, or can identify who or the stranger the visitor is specific, and after the identification result is obtained, first prompt information is sent to a user terminal of the resident to remind the resident that the visitor visits, wherein the first prompt information carries visitor information of the visitor and indication information of the ring pressing operation. For example, the first prompt information may represent "acquaintance comes to visit" or "stranger comes to visit", and the first prompt information may also represent "jijijiujiu who and who comes to visit", "friends who and who comes to visit", "stranger comes to visit", and so on.

It should be noted that the sending mode of the first prompt message may be a short message, APP push, public number push, and the like, and the application is not particularly limited.

In one implementation, Deep learning includes Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), or Deep Belief Networks (DBN).

In another embodiment of the present application, when the device of the present application detects that the door lock state is the back lock state, the controller 211 of the device may further obtain a voice of the visitor, and the controller 211 may identify the voice of the visitor by using a voice matching method according to the voice information to determine the identity information of the visitor, and send a first prompt message representing the visitor information to the user terminal of the resident after obtaining the identification result. For example, the convolutional neural network can be used for matching Mel energy spectrum characteristics in the voice of the visitor, the voice of an acquaintance is collected in advance to form a voice training sample for convolutional neural network training, when the visitor visits, the voice of the visitor is obtained, and the trained convolutional neural network model is used for identifying the voice of the visitor so as to determine the identity of the visitor.

It should be noted that the matching of the sounds may also be performed by a template matching method, a k-nearest neighbor algorithm, or other classification algorithms.

In some possible embodiments, when the device of the present application detects that the door lock state is the back lock state, the controller 211 of the device may further obtain the image and the voice information of the visitor, identify the image and the voice information of the visitor, determine the identity information of the visitor, and then send the first prompt message carrying the specific information of the visitor to the user terminal of the resident.

It should be noted that the user terminal may be a mobile phone, a wearable device (e.g., a sports bracelet, a smart watch, etc.), a tablet computer, and the like.

It should be noted that, when the controller 211 of the apparatus in the embodiment of the present application sends the first prompt message to the user terminal, the first prompt message may be accompanied by one or more of flashing, vibrating, and ringing of a breathing lamp of the user terminal.

It can be seen that, by implementing the embodiment of the application, whether the door is unlocked or not is judged by detecting the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system, so that whether people exist in the household or not is determined, and the method is low in cost and simple in technology. When the door lock state is detected to be the back locking state, on one hand, the bell of the doorbell system is turned off when the door lock state is the back locking state, so that the electric energy of the doorbell system is saved; on the other hand, the method prompts the resident that the visitor visits by sending the first prompt message, so that the resident can be timely informed that the visitor arrives at the door of the resident even if the resident is not at home if the visitor visits by the ring.

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a diagram of another asynchronous ringing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, where the method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:

step 401, detecting a ring-down operation of a visitor to a doorbell system. The detailed implementation process of this step can refer to the detailed description of step 301 in the embodiment of fig. 5, and is not described here again.

And step 402, detecting the door lock state of a door corresponding to the doorbell system. The detailed implementation process of this step can refer to the detailed description of step 301 in the embodiment of fig. 5, and is not described here again.

And step 403, when the door lock state of the door is not the back lock, performing corresponding prompt operation by combining with a preset ring of the doorbell system.

It should be noted that, the resident sets a preset ring of the doorbell system in advance on the doorbell indoor unit, and the preset ring includes any one of a ring and a mute. The resident sets the preset ring of the doorbell system according to the work and rest time of the resident. For example, a resident sets preset rings of two time periods of "1: 00p.m. -2:00 a.m." and "10: 00p.m. -7:00 a.m." to be silent on the device, and preset rings of the doorbell system of the rest of the time periods are rings.

In this embodiment of the application, when the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system is not the back lock, that is, it indicates someone is in the household of the resident, the controller 211 of the device first acquires the preset ringing of the doorbell system, and then executes the corresponding prompt operation according to the preset ringing. In order to more clearly display the corresponding relationship among the door lock state, the preset ringing and the prompt operation, table 1 lists various prompt operations corresponding to different preset ringing when the door lock state is not the back lock, specifically, if the preset ringing of the doorbell system is silent, a second prompt message is sent to the user terminal to remind the resident of the visitor visiting; and if the preset ring of the doorbell system is a ring, indicating the doorbell system to ring to remind a person in a room where the doorbell is located to open the door.

TABLE 1

For example, a certain resident sets preset rings of two time periods of "1: 00p.m. -2:00 a.m." and "10: 00p.m. -7:00 a.m." as silent rings on the doorbell indoor unit, and preset rings of the doorbell system in the rest time periods are rings. If the visitor arrives at the resident at 10 am and the ring pressing operation is executed, the device detects that the door lock state of the door is not the back lock, and the preset ring corresponding to the current time 10 is obtained as the ring, the device controls the doorbell indoor unit to play doorbell music preset by the resident to remind the resident of the ring pressing operation of the visitor; if the visitor arrives at the resident home at 1 o 'clock in the afternoon and half, the ring pressing operation is executed, the device detects that the door lock state of the door is not the back lock, the preset ring corresponding to 1 o' clock at the current moment is acquired as the mute, the doorbell indoor unit cannot sound, the controller 211 of the device sends second prompt information to a user terminal (for example, a mobile phone), the second prompt information represents that the visitor visits, the second prompt information can be sent through a short message, and the prompt information can also be pushed through APP information, and can also be pushed through third-party software such as WeChat and QQ.

It should be noted that when the preset ring of the doorbell system is a ring, the doorbell music played by the doorbell indoor unit may be a "ding-dong" prompt sound, or a voice prompt sound such as "a guest arrives" or "a certain person arrives", or different types of music such as a preset section of customized pure music or a song.

In another embodiment of the application, when the door lock state of the door corresponding to the doorbell system is not a back lock, that is, it indicates that someone is in the household of the resident, the controller 211 of the device may first obtain the preset ring bell of the doorbell system, and may also identify the image shot by the camera to determine the specific identity of the visitor, and if the preset ring bell of the doorbell system is a ring bell, the controller instructs the doorbell system to ring to remind the person in the room where the doorbell is located to open the door; and if the preset ring of the doorbell system is silent, sending second prompt information representing the specific information of the visitor to the user terminal to remind the resident of the visitor. For example, the second prompt message may be a message "a certain visitor visits", "a certain visitor is waiting outdoors", "a certain visitor is asking the owner to do you up", etc.

It should be noted that, when the controller 211 of the apparatus in the embodiment of the present application sends the second prompt message to the user terminal, the second prompt message may be accompanied by one or more of flashing, vibrating, and ringing of a breathing lamp of the user terminal.

It should be noted that the user terminal may be a mobile electronic device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, and a wearable device (e.g., a sports bracelet, a smart watch, etc.).

Therefore, by the implementation of the embodiment of the application, the optimal visitor visiting prompt operation can be executed by combining the preset ringing of the doorbell system when the situation that the door lock state of the corresponding door of the doorbell system is not the back locking state is detected. The suggestion operation in the aforesaid can realize when someone is having a rest in the resident family, the mode suggestion resident family through the non-jingle bell has the visitor to arrive, on the one hand, has both avoided doorbell ringtone frightening the people that have a rest in the resident family, and on the other hand can remind the resident family rationally again that there is the visitor to visit for doorbell system is more intelligent, humanized.

Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a diagram of another asynchronous ringing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, where the method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:

step 501, detecting the ring-pressing operation of the visitor to the doorbell system. The detailed implementation process of this step can refer to the detailed description of step 301 in the embodiment of fig. 5, and is not described here again.

And 502, detecting the door lock state of a door corresponding to the doorbell system. The detailed implementation process of this step can refer to the detailed description of step 301 in the embodiment of fig. 5, and is not described here again.

And 503, when the door lock state is not the back lock, determining the visitor type and carrying out corresponding prompt operation.

In the embodiment of the application, the visitor type to which the visitor belongs can be determined by identifying the image information and/or the voice information of the visitor, the visitor type can be classified into an emergency type or a non-emergency type, and the controller of the device executes corresponding prompt operation according to the visitor type to which the visitor belongs so as to remind the resident of the arrival of the visitor. In order to more clearly display the corresponding relationship among the door lock state, the visitor type and the prompt operation, table 2 lists various prompt operations corresponding to different visitor types when the door lock state is not the back lock, specifically, if the visitor type to which the visitor belongs is an emergency type, the doorbell system is indicated to ring and second prompt information is given to the user terminal to prompt the resident that the visitor visits; and if the visitor type of the visitor belongs to the non-emergency type, indicating the doorbell system to ring.

For example, the second prompt message may only indicate that a visitor rings, that is, "has a visitor visit", "has a visitor rings", or the like, may also indicate that a visitor comes and a visitor type to which the visitor belongs, that is, "has an urgent visitor visits", "has a non-urgent visitor visits", or the like, and may also indicate that a visitor comes and specifically is who, that is, "an urgent visitor gets a certain visit", "an urgent visitor gets a certain visitor", or the like.

It should be noted that, when the controller 211 of the apparatus in the embodiment of the present application sends the second prompt message to the user terminal, the second prompt message may be accompanied by one or more of flashing, vibrating, and ringing of a breathing lamp of the user terminal.

It should be noted that the user terminal may be a mobile phone, a wearable device (e.g., a sports bracelet, a smart watch, etc.), a tablet computer, and the like.

TABLE 2

It should be noted that, the type of the visitor to which the visitor belongs is determined by means of image recognition or voice recognition, and a sample set formed by images or voices of relatives and friends who often come and go needs to be collected first and input to the deep learning model for training. When a visitor visits and rings down, the device collects images and voices of the visitor through the camera and the voice receiver respectively, inputs the images or voices of the visitor into the trained deep learning model respectively for recognition, outputs an 'emergency type' when the images or voices of the visitor are matched with the information in the sample set, and outputs a 'non-emergency type' when the images or voices of the visitor are not matched with the information in the sample set. In some possible embodiments, the specific visitor is identified through the deep learning model, namely the visitor name corresponding to the visitor image or voice in the sample set.

In some possible embodiments, whether the visitor type to which the visitor belongs is an emergency type or a non-emergency type may also be determined according to the number of pressing times of the ring-pressing operation of the doorbell system within the preset time duration, and generally, the number of pressing times of the visitor of the emergency type within the preset time duration is generally large. Specifically, when the pressing frequency of the ring-pressing operation is greater than a preset second threshold, the visitor corresponding to the ring-pressing operation belongs to an emergency type; and when the pressing times of the ring-pressing operation are less than or equal to a preset second threshold and greater than a preset threshold, the visitor corresponding to the ring-pressing operation belongs to a non-emergency type. It should be noted that the preset threshold is smaller than the preset second threshold, where the preset threshold is used to determine the validity of the ring-down operation, and the preset threshold is described in detail in step 302 in the foregoing embodiment, and is not described here again.

In the embodiment of the application, for the emergency type and the non-emergency type, although ringing exists in the prompt operation, different visitor types can be distinguished by controlling the rhythm of ringing music of the two types, so that people in the house of a resident can judge the visitor type to which the visitor belongs only by listening to the ringing music. For example, an urgent type may correspond to a ringing tempo that is short, e.g., a fast song, rap, or other music type with a short tempo, and a non-urgent type may correspond to a music type that is slow, e.g., a slow song, a light music, or other music type with a slow tempo. Different visitor types can also be distinguished by controlling the sound volume of the two rings, for example, the sound volume of the ring corresponding to the emergency type is larger than that of the ring corresponding to the non-emergency type. It is also possible to distinguish between different types of guests by controlling the number of rings of both types, for example, if the ring alert tone is "ding-dong", the number of rings for the emergency type is greater than the number of rings for the non-emergency type, for example, the ring for the emergency type may be "ding-dong-ding", and the ring for the non-emergency type may be "ding-dong".

It should be noted that the ringing music corresponding to the emergency type and the non-emergency type may also be the same, and the present application does not specifically limit the ringing mode in the prompt operation corresponding to the emergency type and the non-emergency type.

By implementing the embodiment of the application, when a resident has a person, the visitor type to which the visitor belongs is determined by classifying the visitor and then the prompt operation corresponding to the visitor type is adopted to prompt the resident that the visitor visits, so that the visitor type to which the visitor belongs can be immediately known by the person in the resident only according to the corresponding prompt operation, and the doorbell system is more intelligent and humanized.
