若感测单元111为CCD或是CMOS，则侦测模块11可感测一侦测范围内的影像，并根据侦测范围内的人体动作是静止或是移动等任何动作变化，或是眼睛是闭着还是有眨眼动作发出一侦测信号，藉此插座模块13判断侦测范围内物体的动作，例如当使用者看电视看到一半睡着，则侦测模块11可侦测到人体呈现静止或是闭眼睛，当使用者清醒的时候，则侦测模块11可侦测到人体的动作或是有眨眼动作；若感测单元111为PIR，则侦测模块11可感测侦测范围内的红外线物体，藉此插座模块13判断侦测范围内物体的动作，例如当使用者看电视看到一半离开去做别的事。If the sensing unit 111 is a CCD or CMOS, the detection module 11 can sense images within a detection range, and change according to any movement such as static or moving of the human body within the detection range, or whether the eyes are Closed or there is a blinking action to send a detection signal, so that thesocket module 13 judges the movement of the object within the detection range. For example, when the user watches TV and sees that he is half asleep, the detection module 11 can detect that the human body is still Or close the eyes, when the user is awake, the detection module 11 can detect the movement of the human body or the blinking action; if the sensing unit 111 is PIR, the detection module 11 can detect infrared objects, so that thesocket module 13 judges the movement of objects within the detection range, for example, when the user watches half of the TV and leaves to do other things.

再参考图1，插座模块13包括一插座132及一操作单元133，其中插座132提供一输入电源给电视15或侦测模块11；操作单元133为一按钮、旋钮或触控式面板，提供使用者输入一操作指令，使插座模块13操作在学习模式，实际实施时，操作单元133也可以设置在侦测模块11，当使用者输入操作指令，则侦测模块11操作在学习模式下。操作在学习模式下的插座模块13或侦测模块11接收并储存一遥控信号，遥控信号为一遥控器17所发射的信号，经过学习的插座模块13或侦测模块11可发出控制电视15进入工作模式或进入待命模式等的遥控信号。侦测模块11的侦测范围接近遥控器17的遥控有效范围，也可由使用者设定，例如设定感应的距离、感应的角度及感应的灵敏度等。Referring to Fig. 1 again, thesocket module 13 includes a socket 132 and anoperating unit 133, wherein the socket 132 provides an input power to the TV 15 or the detection module 11; theoperating unit 133 is a button, a knob or a touch panel, providing Or input an operation command to make thesocket module 13 operate in the learning mode. In actual implementation, theoperating unit 133 can also be set on the detection module 11. When the user inputs an operation command, the detection module 11 operates in the learning mode. Thesocket module 13 or detection module 11 operating in the learning mode receives and stores a remote control signal, the remote control signal is a signal transmitted by a remote controller 17, and thesocket module 13 or detection module 11 after learning can send out the control TV 15 to enter Remote control signal for working mode or entering standby mode, etc. The detection range of the detection module 11 is close to the remote control effective range of the remote controller 17, and can also be set by the user, such as setting the sensing distance, sensing angle, and sensing sensitivity.

插座模块13还可侦测电视15的用电状况，当侦测结果为该遥控电器产品开启使用时，即当电视15被开启的瞬间，也就是输入电源大小由低变高，则插座模块13启动侦测模块11，侦测模块11开始感测侦测范围内的人体动作，插座模块13根据侦测模块11的侦测结果控制电视15进入工作模式或待命模式，即当侦测模块11侦测到有人体离开侦测范围或静止一段时间后，插座模块13控制电视15进入待命模式，即关闭电视15的工作电源；若侦测模块11在一特定时间内侦测到使用者返回或有任何动作，此特定时间为插座模块13出厂时所内建，则插座模块13控制电视15进入工作模式，即回到原本待命模式前所播放的画面；若侦测模块11在特定时间内仍未侦测到使用者返回或仍保持静止，则插座模块13关闭侦测模块11，停止侦测人体的动作，即停止由插座模块13控制电视15的操作状态。Thesocket module 13 can also detect the power consumption status of the TV 15. When the detection result is that the remote control electrical product is turned on and used, that is, when the TV 15 is turned on, that is, the input power level changes from low to high, the socket module 13 Start the detection module 11, the detection module 11 begins to sense human body movements within the detection range, the socket module 13 controls the TV 15 to enter the working mode or the standby mode according to the detection result of the detection module 11, that is, when the detection module 11 detects After detecting that there is a human body leaving the detection range or standing still for a period of time, the socket module 13 controls the TV 15 to enter the standby mode, that is, the working power of the TV 15 is turned off; if the detection module 11 detects that the user returns or has For any action, this specific time is built-in when the socket module 13 leaves the factory, then the socket module 13 controls the TV 15 to enter the working mode, that is, the screen played before returning to the original standby mode; Detecting that the user returns or remains still, the socket module 13 closes the detection module 11 and stops detecting human body movements, that is, stops controlling the operation state of the TV 15 by the socket module 13 .

The remote control signal is a data packet, and the data packet may include commands related to the functions of the television 15 such as a start command, a stop command, a channel switch command, or a volume adjustment command.

为了更详细说明插座模块13的操作原理与动作，请参考图2并配合参考图1，图2为本发明所提供的一种插座模块的一实施例的方块图。如图2所示，插座模块13包括一处理单元131、一操作单元133、一无线收发单元135、一电源输出接口136、一记忆单元137、一电源输入接口138及一电流侦测单元139。其中操作单元133、无线收发单元135、记忆单元137及电流侦测单元139分别与处理单元131耦接；电源输出接口136及电源输入接口138分别与电流侦测单元139耦接。In order to describe the operation principle and action of thesocket module 13 in detail, please refer to FIG. 2 together with FIG. 1 . FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an embodiment of a socket module provided by the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2 , thesocket module 13 includes aprocessing unit 131 , anoperating unit 133 , awireless transceiver unit 135 , apower output interface 136 , amemory unit 137 , apower input interface 138 and acurrent detection unit 139 . Theoperation unit 133 , thewireless transceiver unit 135 , thememory unit 137 and thecurrent detection unit 139 are respectively coupled to theprocessing unit 131 ; thepower output interface 136 and thepower input interface 138 are respectively coupled to thecurrent detection unit 139 .

电源输入接口138可为一电线或插头，与一市电耦接，并通过电流侦测单元139将输入电源传送至电源输出接口136，电源输出接口136与插座132耦接，提供一稳定的输入电源至电视15或侦测模块11；电流侦测单元139可为一电流感知器(current sensor)，侦测输入电源的电流大小是否超过一基准值，此基准值可为插座模块13出厂时候所内建。电流侦测单元139也可为电压侦测单元等电源侦测单元，对电视15的使用电源进行侦测。Thepower input interface 138 can be a wire or plug, coupled with a mains, and transmits the input power to thepower output interface 136 through thecurrent detection unit 139, and thepower output interface 136 is coupled with the socket 132 to provide a stable input Power to the TV 15 or the detection module 11; thecurrent detection unit 139 can be a current sensor (current sensor), detects whether the current of the input power exceeds a reference value, and this reference value can be thesocket module 13 when it leaves the factory. built-in. Thecurrent detection unit 139 can also be a power detection unit such as a voltage detection unit to detect the power used by the TV 15 .

处理单元131接收操作单元133的操作指令后使插座模块13操作在学习模式，在操作模式下，处理单元131控制一显示单元(图未示)或扬声单元(图未示)提醒使用者操作遥控器17，使遥控器17发射启动工作信号及停止工作信号等遥控信号至插座模块13，处理单元131藉由无线收发单元135接收遥控信号，并将启动工作信号及停止工作信号储存在记忆单元137内，也就是储存序号、辨识码及控制命令码。Theprocessing unit 131 makes thesocket module 13 operate in the learning mode after receiving the operation instruction from theoperating unit 133. In the operating mode, theprocessing unit 131 controls a display unit (not shown) or a speaker unit (not shown) to remind the user to operate Remote controller 17, so that the remote controller 17 transmits remote control signals such as start-up signal and stop-work signal to thesocket module 13, and theprocessing unit 131 receives the remote-control signal through thewireless transceiver unit 135, and stores the start-up work signal and stop-work signal in thememory unit 137, that is, store the serial number, identification code and control command code.

处理单元131根据电流侦测单元139的侦测结果启动或关闭侦测模块11，当电流侦测单元139检测电视15开启使用时，即侦测到一超过基准值的电流大小，则处理单元131控制侦测模块11开始感测侦测范围内的人体状态；侦测模块11输出侦测信号至处理单元131，处理单元131根据侦测信号来判断侦测范围内的物体离开、进入或是睡着，当处理单元131判断有物体离开侦测范围或没有人体时，则通过无线收发单元135输出停止工作信号至电视15，使电视15操作在待命模式，也就是等待接收遥控信号的状态。Theprocessing unit 131 starts or closes the detection module 11 according to the detection result of thecurrent detection unit 139. When thecurrent detection unit 139 detects that the TV 15 is turned on, it detects a current exceeding the reference value, and theprocessing unit 131 Control the detection module 11 to start sensing the state of the human body within the detection range; the detection module 11 outputs a detection signal to theprocessing unit 131, and theprocessing unit 131 judges the object within the detection range to leave, enter or sleep according to the detection signal. Then, when theprocessing unit 131 judges that there is an object out of the detection range or there is no human body, thewireless transceiver unit 135 outputs a stop signal to the TV 15, so that the TV 15 operates in a standby mode, that is, a state waiting to receive a remote control signal.

处理单元131更判断在一特定时间内是否有人体或物体进入侦测范围，若在特定时间内有人体或物体进入侦测范围，即侦测模块11侦测到无物体到有物体出现，则处理单元131通过无线收发单元135输出启动工作信号至电视15，使电视15操作在工作模式，也就是显示影像的状态；若在特定时间内一直没有人体进入侦测范围，则处理单元131通过无线收发单元135输出停止工作信号至电视15，使电视15操作在待命模式，处理单元131还控制侦测模块11停止感测侦测范围内的人体状态，即控制侦测模块11操作在待机模式。Theprocessing unit 131 further judges whether a human body or an object enters the detection range within a specific time period. If a human body or object enters the detection range within a specific time period, that is, the detection module 11 detects that there is no object or an object appears, then Theprocessing unit 131 outputs a start-up signal to the TV 15 through thewireless transceiver unit 135, so that the TV 15 operates in the working mode, that is, the state of displaying images; Thetransceiver unit 135 outputs a stop signal to the TV 15 to make the TV 15 operate in the standby mode. Theprocessing unit 131 also controls the detection module 11 to stop sensing the human body state within the detection range, that is, controls the detection module 11 to operate in the standby mode.

插座模块13藉由无线收发单元135可与侦测模块11、电视15及遥控器17通过无线射频(RF)或红外线等作无线通讯。实际实施时，遥控器17发射遥控信号来控制电视15，遥控信号可为无线射频信号或红外线信号，若以红外线作无线通讯，则插座模块13与电视15也以红外线作无线通讯，由于红外线遥控信号具有方向性，然而插座模块13通常不会设置于电视15前，也就是设置在电视15接收红外线的方向，因此，无线收发单元135也可设置在插座模块13外并朝向电视15，使插座模块13通过无线收发单元135与电视15做无线通讯。Thesocket module 13 can communicate wirelessly with the detection module 11 , the TV 15 and the remote controller 17 through radio frequency (RF) or infrared rays through thewireless transceiver unit 135 . During actual implementation, the remote controller 17 transmits a remote control signal to control the TV 15. The remote control signal can be a radio frequency signal or an infrared signal. If infrared rays are used for wireless communication, thesocket module 13 and the TV 15 also use infrared rays for wireless communication. The signal has directionality, but thesocket module 13 is usually not arranged in front of the TV 15, that is, it is arranged in the direction in which the TV 15 receives infrared rays. Therefore, thewireless transceiver unit 135 can also be arranged outside thesocket module 13 and towards the TV 15, so that the socket Themodule 13 communicates wirelessly with the TV 15 through thewireless transceiver unit 135 .

插座模块13储存来自遥控器17的遥控信号，并根据侦测模块11的侦测信号控制电视15操作在待命模式或工作模式，不仅随着使用者短暂地离开电视15前持续的时间长短而节省了工作电源，更在使用者长期离开电视15时节省了侦测模块11的工作电源。Thesocket module 13 stores the remote control signal from the remote controller 17, and controls the TV 15 to operate in standby mode or working mode according to the detection signal of the detection module 11. The working power is saved, and the working power of the detection module 11 is saved when the user leaves the TV 15 for a long time.

请参考图3，为本发明所提供的一种节能方法的一实施例的流程图。如图3所示，首先由使用者将插座模块13操作在学习模式，藉由将插座模块13与遥控器17作配对学习，也就是将遥控信号储存在插座模块13内，遥控信号包括启动工作信号及停止工作等控制信号，使插座模块13可发射遥控信号来控制电视15进入工作模式或待命模式(S301)；当使用者开启电视15，与电视15耦接的插座模块13可侦测到一电流值大小的变化，或是侦测到电流值超过一基准值，此基准值可为插座模块13出厂时所内建，插座模块13侦测到电流变化时启动侦测模块11(S303)；侦测模块11可感测侦测范围内人体或移动物体的动作变化，包括进入或离开侦测范围或是在侦测范围内静止或活动，根据不同的侦测结果发出一侦测信号；插座模块13根据侦测信号判断是否有人体离开侦测范围(S305)，若没有侦测到有人离开侦测范围，则侦测模块11持续侦测。Please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a flowchart of an embodiment of an energy saving method provided by the present invention. As shown in Figure 3, the user first operates thesocket module 13 in the learning mode, and learns by pairing thesocket module 13 with the remote control 17, that is, the remote control signal is stored in thesocket module 13, and the remote control signal includes starting work. signal and stop working and other control signals, so that thesocket module 13 can transmit a remote control signal to control the TV 15 to enter the working mode or standby mode (S301); when the user turns on the TV 15, thesocket module 13 coupled with the TV 15 can detect A change in the magnitude of the current value, or the detection of a current value exceeding a reference value, the reference value can be built into thesocket module 13 when it leaves the factory, and the detection module 11 is activated when thesocket module 13 detects a change in the current (S303) The detection module 11 can sense the movement changes of the human body or moving objects within the detection range, including entering or leaving the detection range or being stationary or active within the detection range, and sending out a detection signal according to different detection results; Thesocket module 13 judges whether a human body leaves the detection range according to the detection signal (S305). If no person is detected to leave the detection range, the detection module 11 continues to detect.

若有人体离开侦测范围，则插座模块13发出停止工作信号至电视15，控制电视15进入待命模式(S307)；若没有人体离开侦测范围，则侦测模块11持续侦测(S305)；当侦测模块11侦测到人体离开后，插座模块13判断人体是否离开侦测范围持续时间超过一特定时间，或是判断侦测范围内的人体持续静止超过特定时间(S309)，此特定时间可为插座模块13出厂时所内建。If a human body leaves the detection range, thesocket module 13 sends a stop signal to the TV 15, and the TV 15 is controlled to enter the standby mode (S307); if no human body leaves the detection range, the detection module 11 continues to detect (S305); After the detection module 11 detects that the human body has left, thesocket module 13 judges whether the human body leaves the detection range for a duration exceeding a specific time, or judges that the human body in the detection range continues to be still for a specific time (S309). It can be built-in when thesocket module 13 leaves the factory.

若人体离开侦测范围或是在侦测范围内静止持续时间超过了特定时间，则插座模块13控制侦测模块11停止侦测人体状态(S315)，也就是停止由插座模块13控制电视15的操作状态，等待下次使用者再使用遥控器17启动电视15后才又继续侦测；若人体离开侦测范围或是在侦测范围内静止持续时间未超过特定时间，则侦测模块11持续侦测，插座模块13判断是否有人体进入侦测范围(S311)；若在特定时间内有人体进入侦测范围，即侦测模块11侦测到该侦测范围内从无物体到有物体出现，则插座模块13发出启动工作信号至电视15，控制电视15进入工作模式(S313)，且侦测模块11持续侦测；若没有人体进入侦测范围，则插座模块13判断人体是否离开侦测范围持续时间超过特定时间(S309)。If the human body leaves the detection range or the static duration exceeds a specific time in the detection range, thesocket module 13 controls the detection module 11 to stop detecting the human body state (S315), that is, thesocket module 13 stops controlling the TV 15. In the operating state, the detection is continued after the user starts the TV 15 with the remote controller 17 next time; Detection, thesocket module 13 judges whether there is a human body entering the detection range (S311); if a human body enters the detection range within a specific time, the detection module 11 detects that there is no object in the detection range. , then thesocket module 13 sends a start-up signal to the TV 15, controls the TV 15 to enter the working mode (S313), and the detection module 11 continues to detect; if no human body enters the detection range, thesocket module 13 judges whether the human body leaves the detection The range duration exceeds a certain time (S309).

藉由节能方法，当使用者观看电视15的中途短暂离开或睡着，则电视15进入待命模式，节省了电视15的工作电源，此外，当人体离开电视机前时间太长，或在电视机前睡着很久，则侦测模块11停止侦测人体的动作变化，节省了侦测模块11的耗电。With the energy-saving method, when the user leaves or falls asleep while watching the TV 15, the TV 15 enters the standby mode, which saves the working power of the TV 15. In addition, when the human body leaves the TV for too long, or the TV 15 If you fell asleep for a long time before, the detection module 11 stops detecting the movement changes of the human body, which saves the power consumption of the detection module 11 .

综合上述所列举实施方式的作法，可知相较于传统的节能遥控电器产品，本发明的节能装置不须修改遥控电器产品或遥控器本身规格，藉由节能装置的学习功能，即可实现节省遥控电器产品的工作电源。因此，可以节省修改遥控电器产品规格的成本，同时也可以避免无人使用电器时浪费能源。Based on the practices of the above-mentioned embodiments, it can be seen that compared with the traditional energy-saving remote control electrical products, the energy-saving device of the present invention does not need to modify the specifications of the remote control electrical products or the remote control itself, and can realize energy-saving remote control through the learning function of the energy-saving device.
