Handheld device wireless control conversion architecture

The present invention relates to a wireless control conversion architecture for a handheld device, and particularly to a handheld device that can remotely control (operate) various electronic devices.

With the advancement of science and technology, the development of electronic devices with different functions has brought many conveniences in daily life, and at the same time, it has filled many electronic devices in daily life, such as: televisions, air conditioners, electric roller shutters, car alarms, Security system, lighting equipment; regardless of the actual function of the electronic device, the only thing that is the same is that the corresponding remote control is used to operate, so that there are always multiple remote controllers with different functions around the user, in addition to adding a lot of storage Troubled, it also causes users to always look for remote control.

In addition, powerful smartphones that can execute a variety of different applications (APPs) have long been the mainstream of mobile phones, and the usage rate of the world has reached 50%, and the smart phones for different functions and customers in the market. The variety of products, regardless of the actual functional differences, the same is that each smart phone has a WiFi wireless module or Bluetooth wireless module; please refer to Figure 1, so there are manufacturers to develop smart phones Actively controlling the controlled device D2 through the WiFi wireless module or the Bluetooth wireless module M1, this method can achieve the purpose of actively controlling the controlled device D2 by the smart phone, but the D2 end of the controlled device also needs to provide the same The WiFi wireless module or the Bluetooth wireless module M1 corresponds, so there are still some shortcomings, such as: using a Bluetooth wireless module to transmit signals, but the transmission distance is short, or using a WiFi wireless module to transmit signals Although it can provide a longer transmission distance, the cost of its construction is higher and it is not the ideal way. Therefore, some users also use infrared wireless modules or Other wireless modules are used as remote control signals, but neither the infrared wireless module nor other wireless modules are standard equipment on most smart phones, but need to be purchased separately. As a result, most smart phones cannot be directly used. Control the general electronic device and completely replace the remote control.

Furthermore, in recent years, the industry has developed a wireless control device 30 (shown in FIG. 2) that is plugged into the smart phone 20-terminal connector 21 to actively control the smart phone 20 through the wireless control device 30. The controlled device D2 can achieve the purpose of actively controlling the controlled device D2 by the smart phone 20, but in addition to the convenience of destroying the smart phone 20, the smart phone only has a terminal connector 21, which is The terminal connector 21 is required to provide various functions such as charging, signal transmission, file transmission, etc., and the controlled device D2 is controlled by plugging the wireless control device 30, and the terminal connector 21 is occupied for a long time, which is necessary to be repeated frequently. The plugging and unplugging is troublesome and easily damages the terminal connector 21. Another disadvantage is that the smart phone 20 is very power consuming. If the wireless control device 30 is connected for a long time by plugging, it is impossible to charge at the same time, causing the user to use it. Time and convenience are severely limited.

To this end, how to actively control the controlled device without WiFi or Bluetooth wireless module with the original wireless communication module of the smart phone, and make the terminal connector can be used for other purposes (such as charging) at the same time. The subject of the research.

The main purpose of this creation is to provide a wireless control conversion architecture for a handheld device, which utilizes a built-in WiFi (Wireless Fidelity) or Bluetooth wireless module for remote control of a wireless device or a Bluetooth wireless module. Actuated by the controlled device, the architecture includes at least: a remote control application that loads the handheld device and controls the wireless module of the handheld device to transmit the first control signal; and a wireless control relay station includes at least one a receiving end, a signal converting unit and a control end, wherein the receiving end receives the first control signal, and the signal converting unit translates the received first control signal into a second control signal, and the control terminal is wired or wireless The mode controls the controlled device to act as an operator.

According to the foregoing main features, the receiving end is a WiFi or Bluetooth wireless module.

According to the foregoing main features, the control terminal is a wireless signal module for controlling the remote controlled device to operate. The wireless signal module can be an infrared (IR) wireless module, a Zigbee wireless module, or an RFID wireless module. Group, Near Field Communication (NFC) wireless module, need to cooperate Depending on the actual specifications of the wireless signal signal module installed in the controlled device, it may be one of or a plurality of the aforementioned wireless module combinations.

According to the above main features, the control terminal is a wired signal module for controlling a local or remote controlled device to operate. The wired signal module can be a power line (PLC) module, an RS422 port, or RS485 port, CAN BUS port, LIN BUS port, MOD BUS port, one of them or a combination of multiple ports.
