Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method for switching an operating mode according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 5, an interaction subject of the present embodiment includes a mobile device, a server, and a home device, and includes the following steps:

in step 501, a mobile device obtains a first device identifier, a second device identifier, and an operating mode.

In this embodiment, the mobile device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, and the like, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In practical application, when a user is close to the home device, the user can be considered to use the home device, so that the home device can automatically switch to a favorite working mode of the user, the mobile device frequently carried by the user can be bound with the working mode of the home device in advance, and then when the user carries the mobile device to be close to the home device, the home device can automatically switch to the working mode corresponding to the mobile device.

In order to bind the mobile device with the working mode of the home device, the mobile device may first obtain the first device identifier, the second device identifier, and the working mode.

The second device identifier is used to indicate the home device, and may be a device number, a Media Access Control (MAC) address, and the like of the home device, which is not limited in this embodiment.

The first device identifier is used for indicating a mobile device to be bound with the working mode of the home device. In this embodiment, the first device identifier may be a device identifier of the local terminal of the mobile device, and the first device identifier may be a device number, a user account, a MAC address, and the like of the mobile device, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In practical application, the mobile device may be bound to a plurality of home devices, and obtain a device identifier of each bound home device and a plurality of working modes that each home device can provide. The household equipment can be an intelligent air conditioner, an intelligent refrigerator, an intelligent closestool, an intelligent television and the like, correspondingly, the working modes provided by the intelligent air conditioner comprise a sleep mode, a refrigeration mode, a dehumidification mode and the like, the working modes provided by the intelligent refrigerator comprise a degerming mode, a freezing mode, a cold storage mode and the like, the working modes provided by the household equipment of different types can be the same or different, and the embodiment does not limit the modes.

The mobile device can display the device identifications of the plurality of bound home devices, when a user wants to set a working mode on the home device, the device identification of the corresponding home device can be selected, and when the mobile device detects a selection operation of the user, the device identification corresponding to the selection operation is acquired as the second device identification.

And the mobile device can also display a plurality of working modes which can be provided by the home equipment corresponding to the second equipment identifier, a user can select one working mode according to the preference, and when the mobile device detects the selection operation of the user, the working mode corresponding to the selection operation is obtained.

The operation of selecting the device identifier of the home device may be an operation of clicking the device identifier, or an operation of pressing the device identifier for a long time, and the operation of selecting the working mode may be an operation of clicking the working mode, or an operation of pressing the working mode for a long time, which are not limited in this embodiment.

In addition, in this embodiment, only the mobile device obtains the device identifier of the home terminal, which is taken as the first device identifier, that is, the mobile device itself is bound to the working mode of the home device. In practical applications, the mobile device may further obtain a device identifier of another mobile device, and the device identifier is used as the first device identifier to bind the mobile device indicated by the device identifier and the working mode of the home device.

In step 502, the mobile device sends a first binding request to a server, the first binding request including the first device identification, the second device identification, and the operating mode.

In step 503, when receiving the first binding request, the server sends a second binding request to the home device according to the second device identifier, where the second binding request includes the first device identifier and the working mode.

In this embodiment, the mobile device is bound to the home device, and interaction may be performed through a server. Then, after the mobile device obtains the first device identifier, the second device identifier, and the working mode, a first binding request may be sent to a server, where the first binding request includes the first device identifier, the second device identifier, and the working mode. When the server receives the first binding request, the server may determine the home device according to the second device identifier, so as to send a second binding request to the home device, where the second binding request includes the first device identifier and the working mode.

In step 504, when the home device receives the second binding request, a binding relationship between the first device identifier and the working mode is established.

When the home device receives the second binding request, a binding relationship between the first device identifier and the working mode can be established, and the mobile device and the working mode are bound, so that the home device can automatically switch to the working mode bound by the mobile device when the subsequent mobile device approaches the home device.

In step 505, the mobile device broadcasts a message including the first device identifier.

In step 506, when the mobile device is located in the surrounding geographical area of the home device, the home device receives the message broadcasted by the mobile device, and obtains the first device identifier in the message.

In this embodiment, in order to facilitate switching of the working mode of the home device, the mobile device may broadcast a message, where the message includes a first device identifier of a home terminal, and when a user carries the mobile device and approaches the home device, the mobile device may be located in a surrounding geographical area of the home device, and at this time, the home device may receive the message, so as to obtain the first device identifier in the message.

For example, the mobile device and the home device may be configured with a bluetooth communication function, and the mobile device may broadcast a message through the bluetooth communication function, and when the mobile device is located in a surrounding geographic area of the home device, the home device may receive the message through the bluetooth communication function.

The message may be a beacons message or other types of messages, which is not limited in this embodiment. Moreover, the mobile device may broadcast the message in real time or periodically, and the broadcast period may be 1s, 5s, and the like, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In addition, in order to avoid misoperation caused when the user carries the mobile device far away from the home device, when the home device receives the message, the signal strength of the message can be detected, whether the signal strength is greater than a preset threshold value or not is judged, when the signal strength is determined to be greater than the preset threshold value, the mobile device is indicated to be close to the home device, the user possibly needs to use the home device, and then the home device acquires the first device identifier in the message. And when the signal strength is determined to be not greater than the preset threshold value, the mobile device is far away from the home device, and the user does not need to use the home device, so that the home device does not obtain the first device identifier in the message, and the message is ignored.

The Signal strength of the message may be RSSI (Received Signal strength indication) of the message or other parameters used for representing the Signal strength, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In step 507, the home device switches to the working mode corresponding to the first device identifier according to the binding relationship.

When the home device acquires the first device identifier in the message, it may be determined that the mobile device is located near the home device, and then the working mode corresponding to the first device identifier may be determined according to the established binding relationship between the device identifier and the working mode, and switched to the working mode corresponding to the first device identifier. The user of the mobile equipment can use the household equipment in the set working mode.

In addition, in order to avoid switching to the working mode set by another user while one user uses the home equipment, the home equipment can judge whether the home equipment is currently in the use state before switching, and if the home equipment is currently in the use state, the home equipment operates in the original working mode without switching to the working mode corresponding to the first equipment identifier. And if the mobile terminal is not in the use state, switching to the working mode corresponding to the first equipment identification.

For example, for an intelligent toilet, when the intelligent toilet receives a message, a pressure parameter value currently detected by a pressure sensor may be obtained, whether the pressure parameter value is greater than a preset pressure value is determined, and if it is determined that the pressure parameter value is greater than the preset pressure value, it indicates that the intelligent toilet is currently in a use state, switching is not performed. And if the pressure parameter value is not larger than the preset pressure value, the intelligent closestool is not in the use state currently, and the intelligent closestool is switched to the corresponding working mode according to the first equipment identification in the message.

In daily life, devices such as a mobile phone and a tablet personal computer of a user can be bound with home equipment such as a refrigerator and a washing machine at home, the user can use the devices such as the mobile phone and the tablet personal computer to bind with a working mode of the home equipment, and when the user carries the devices such as the mobile phone and the tablet personal computer and approaches the home equipment, the home equipment can be automatically switched to the working mode corresponding to the devices without manual switching of the user.

According to the method provided by the embodiment, by pre-establishing the binding relationship between the device identifier and the working mode, when the mobile device is located in the surrounding geographical area of the home device, the home device can receive the message broadcasted by the mobile device and automatically switch to the working mode corresponding to the mobile device according to the binding relationship, the user does not need to manually switch, the operation is simple and convenient, and the flexibility is improved. After the binding relationship is established according to the setting of the user, the preference of the user is fully considered, so that the accuracy of the working mode switched by the household equipment is higher, and the flexibility is stronger.

The first device identifier is used to indicate a mobile device to be bound with the working mode of the home device, and the above embodiment only takes the first device identifier as the device identifier of the home terminal of the mobile device, that is, the mobile device binds the device identifier of the home terminal and the working mode of the home device as an example for explanation. In practical application, the mobile device may further bind the device identifier of the other mobile device with the working mode of the home device, so that the home device can automatically switch the working mode when the user carries the other mobile device to be close to the home device, and the specific process is described in the following embodiments.
