Description
本新型創作是有關於一種電力監控技術，且特別是有關於一種電力監控裝置及系統。The novel creation is related to a power monitoring technology, and in particular to a power monitoring device and system.
隨著節能省碳的環保議題逐漸受到重視，對於企業、工廠或是住家而言，若能依據電器的使用狀況來調整電器的用電量，將可減少許多不必要的資源浪費。以一般住家來說，可利用智慧電表來偵測家中各項電器的耗能狀態。另一方面，智慧電表也能分析不同時段電器的耗電情況，並藉由關閉未使用或發生故障的電器來減少電費的支出。With the increasing environmental protection issues of energy saving and carbon saving, if enterprises, factories or homes can adjust the electricity consumption of electrical appliances according to the use of electrical appliances, it will reduce unnecessary waste of resources.

On the other hand, smart meters can also analyze the power consumption of appliances in different time periods and reduce the cost of electricity bills by turning off unused or faulty appliances.
然而，每一個插座就需要一套智慧電表系統，一般家庭中的電器數量眾多且分散各處，若要採用這種方式來監控電器的使用狀況勢必要增加許多成本與線路的施工難度。除此之外，目前智慧電表或智慧插座的功能僅限於遠端斷復電、超載斷電、計費以及電力量測等。若是能在智慧電表或智慧插座的功能中導入環境變數(例如：室內人數或室溫等)進行自動操作電器開關，將可大幅提升智慧電表或智慧插座的實用性及便利性。However, each socket requires a smart meter system.

圖1繪示本新型創作一實施例的一種電力監控裝置10的示意圖。電力監控裝置10接收輸入電源30，並包括多數個電源輸出介面102-1~102-N、控制模組104、檢測元件106以及開關模組108。多數個電源輸出介面102-1~102-N分別提供多數個輸出電源。檢測元件106耦接控制模組104以及電源輸出介面102-1~102-N。檢測元件106依據電源輸出介面102-1~102-N的用電狀態以產生用電資訊A1。開關模組108耦接至電源輸出介面102-1~102-N、控制模組104、檢測元件106以及輸入電源30。開關模組108依據控制信號CTRL1~CTRLN的第一部份以導通或斷開電源輸出介面102-1~102-N與輸入電源30的耦接路徑。開關模組108並分別依據控制信號CTRL1~CTRLN的第二部份以導通或斷開電源輸出介面102-1~102-N與檢測元件106的耦接路徑。其中，N為正整數。FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a power monitoring device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The power monitoring device 10 receives the input power source 30 and includes a plurality of power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N, a control module 104, a detecting component 106, and a switch module 108. A plurality of power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N respectively provide a plurality of output power sources. The detecting component 106 is coupled to the control module 104 and the power output interfaces 102-1~102-N. The detecting component 106 generates the power information A1 according to the power state of the power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N. The switch module 108 is coupled to the power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N, the control module 104, the detecting component 106, and the input power source 30. The switch module 108 turns on or off the coupling path of the power output interfaces 102-1~102-N and the input power source 30 according to the first part of the control signals CTRL1~CTRLN. The switch module 108 is further configured to turn on or off the coupling path of the power output interfaces 102-1~102-N and the detecting component 106 according to the second portion of the control signals CTRL1~CTRLN, respectively. Where N is a positive integer.
舉例來說，電力監控裝置10可以是智慧電表，輸入電源30可以是室電(即交流電源)，電源輸出介面102-1~102-N可以是多數個插座。電力監控裝置10可應用於企業用電、工廠用電、家庭用電或者電力公司的電源管理，亦可用以監控任一處電源，本新型創作並不對此限制。在此實施例中，以電力監控裝置10用來監控家庭用電的交流電源來作說明。For example, the power monitoring device 10 may be a smart meter, the input power source 30 may be a room power (ie, an AC power source), and the power source output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N may be a plurality of sockets. The power monitoring device 10 can be applied to power management of enterprise electricity, factory electricity, household electricity, or electric power companies, and can also be used to monitor power sources at any place. This novel creation is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the power monitoring device 10 is used to monitor the AC power of the household electricity for illustration.
家中不同的電器(例如：電冰箱、冷氣或電腦等等家電)可分別接於電源輸出介面102-1~102-N上。假設接於電源輸出介面102-1上的電冰箱發生故障，電源輸出介面102-1的用電狀態就會產生異常，檢測元件106會依據電源輸出介面102-1的用電狀態而產生用電資訊A1。控制模組104在接收到檢測元件106所傳送的用電資訊A1後，會產生控制信號CTRL1，開關模組108可依據控制信號CTRL1的第一部份將輸入電源30與電源輸出介面102-1兩者之間的耦接路徑斷開。此時，電源輸出介面102-1就不會再提供輸出電源，因此，故障的電冰箱就不會造成耗能浪費，進而降低電費的支出。另一方面，開關模組108可依據控制信號CTRL1的第二部份將電源輸出介面102-1與檢測元件106兩者之間的耦接路徑斷開。此時，檢測元件106就不再對故障的電冰箱進行用電狀態的檢測。由此可知，在本新型創作的實施例中，電力監控裝置10可依照不同的情況，控制電源輸出介面102-1~102-N的電源開關狀態。另一方面，電力監控裝置10也可控制檢測元件106是否要對電源輸出介面102-1~102-N的用電狀態進行檢測。Different electrical appliances in the home (for example, refrigerators, air conditioners, or computers) can be connected to the power output interfaces 102-1~102-N. Assuming that the refrigerator connected to the power output interface 102-1 fails, the power state of the power output interface 102-1 is abnormal, and the detecting component 106 generates power according to the power state of the power output interface 102-1. Information A1. After receiving the power information A1 transmitted by the detecting component 106, the control module 104 generates a control signal CTRL1, and the switch module 108 can input the power source 30 and the power output interface 102-1 according to the first part of the control signal CTRL1. The coupling path between the two is broken. At this time, the power output interface 102-1 will no longer provide output power, so the faulty refrigerator will not waste energy, thereby reducing the cost of electricity. On the other hand, the switch module 108 can disconnect the coupling path between the power output interface 102-1 and the detecting component 106 according to the second portion of the control signal CTRL1. At this time, the detecting element 106 no longer detects the power state of the failed refrigerator. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the power monitoring device 10 can control the power switch state of the power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N according to different situations. On the other hand, the power monitoring device 10 can also control whether or not the detecting component 106 is to detect the power state of the power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N.
在此特別說明，以往利用智慧電表來監控家中不同電器的方法是在每一個插座上都安裝一個智慧電表。舉例來說，若是家中有六種電器，就必須要六個智慧電表才能達到分別監控不同電器的目的。然而，本新型創作的電力監控裝置10並不需要安裝在每一個插座上(例如：電力監控裝置10可同時監控電源輸出介面102-1~102-N)。由此可知，本新型創作的電力監控裝置10與傳 統的智慧電表相比可減少許多成本，提升實用性。In particular, the way to use smart meters to monitor different appliances in your home is to install a smart meter on each outlet. For example, if there are six kinds of electrical appliances in the home, six smart meters must be used to achieve the purpose of separately monitoring different electrical appliances. However, the power monitoring device 10 of the present invention does not need to be installed on each socket (for example, the power monitoring device 10 can simultaneously monitor the power output interfaces 102-1 to 102-N). It can be seen that the power monitoring device 10 created by the novel is transmitted and transmitted. Compared with smart meters, it can reduce many costs and improve practicality.
圖2繪示本新型創作的另一實施例的一種電力監控裝置20的示意圖。電力監控裝置20包括電源輸出介面202-1~202-N、控制模組204、檢測元件206以及開關模組208。在此實施例中，檢測元件206耦接至輸入電源40，檢測元件206可依據輸入電源40與電源輸出介面202-1~202-N的用電狀態來產生用電資訊A2。舉例來說，輸入電源40為提供電源輸出介面202-1~202-N的輸出電源的總電源，家中的各種電器可接於電源輸出介面202-1~202-N上用以接收由輸入電源40所傳送的電源。2 is a schematic diagram of a power monitoring device 20 of another embodiment of the present invention. The power monitoring device 20 includes power output interfaces 202-1~202-N, a control module 204, a detecting component 206, and a switch module 208. In this embodiment, the detecting component 206 is coupled to the input power source 40. The detecting component 206 can generate the power information A2 according to the power state of the input power source 40 and the power source output interfaces 202-1 202202-N. For example, the input power source 40 is a total power source for providing output power of the power output interfaces 202-1~202-N, and various appliances in the home can be connected to the power output interfaces 202-1~202-N for receiving input power. 40 transmitted power.
另一方面，控制模組204可包括控制器214以及信號收發器234。其中，控制器214耦接檢測元件206，並依據用電資訊A2產生控制信號C1~CN。信號收發器234耦接控制器214，信號收發器234與監控主機50進行資料傳收動作，信號收發器234可傳送各電源輸出介面202-1~202-N以及輸入電源40的用電資訊A2至監控主機50，如此一來，監控主機50可得知各電源輸出介面202-1~202-N的用電狀況。控制器214依據信號收發器234所傳送的各電源輸出介面202-1~202-N以及輸入電源40的用電資訊A2產生控制信號C1~CN。信號收發器234並接收監控主機50所傳送的各電源輸出介面202-1~202-N以及輸入電源40的用電規範。舉例來說，信號收發器234可以是無線網路晶片，監控主機50可以是伺服器系統、桌上型電腦、平板電腦或智慧型手機等。On the other hand, the control module 204 can include a controller 214 and a signal transceiver 234. The controller 214 is coupled to the detecting component 206 and generates the control signals C1 CN CN according to the power information A2. The signal transceiver 234 is coupled to the controller 214, the signal transceiver 234 and the monitoring host 50 perform data transmission operations, and the signal transceiver 234 can transmit the power information A2 of each power output interface 202-1~202-N and the input power source 40. To the monitoring host 50, the monitoring host 50 can know the power usage status of each of the power output interfaces 202-1~202-N. The controller 214 generates control signals C1 to CN according to the power output interfaces 202-1 to 202-N transmitted by the signal transceiver 234 and the power information A2 of the input power source 40. The signal transceiver 234 receives the power specifications of the power output interfaces 202-1 ～ 202-N and the input power source 40 transmitted by the monitoring host 50. For example, the signal transceiver 234 can be a wireless network chip, and the monitoring host 50 can be a server system, a desktop computer, a tablet computer, or a smart phone.
值得注意的是，由上述說明可以得知，監控主機50可透 過信號收發器234控制電源輸出介面202-1~202-N的電源開關狀態。也就是說，在本創作其它實施例中，監控主機50可以是一個遠端的主機，並進行電源輸出介面202-1~202-N的遠端控制。其中，遠端控制方式可為有線或無線(例如：藍芽(Bluetooth)、無線相容認證(Wireless Fidelity，Wi-Fi)以及群蜂無線通信協定標準(Zigbee)等)。在本新型創作的實施例中，信號收發器234可透過網路與監控主機50進行連接。It is worth noting that, as can be seen from the above description, the monitoring host 50 can be transparent. The over-signal transceiver 234 controls the power switch states of the power output interfaces 202-1~202-N. That is to say, in other embodiments of the present invention, the monitoring host 50 can be a remote host and remotely control the power output interfaces 202-1~202-N. The remote control mode may be wired or wireless (for example, Bluetooth, Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), and Zigbee, etc.). In the inventive embodiment, the signal transceiver 234 can be connected to the monitoring host 50 via a network.
開關模組208包括開關S1~SN以及緩衝電路B1~BN，各緩衝電路B1~BN耦接至對應的各開關S1~SN。各電源輸出介面202-1~202-N耦接至開關S1~SN中的其中之二。各開關S1~SN耦接至控制模組204、檢測元件206以及輸入電源40。各緩衝電路B1~BN包括各電晶體Q1~QN以及各電阻R1~RN。其中，各電晶體Q1~QN耦接對應的各開關S1~SN，各電阻R1~RN耦接在控制模組204與對應的各電晶體Q1~QN之間。舉例來說，電晶體Q1~QN可以是NPN雙載子接面電晶體(bipolar junction transistor，BJT)，開關S1~SN可以是電磁開關(例如：繼電器)。各電晶體Q1~QN的集極端皆耦接至參考電壓VREF，各電晶體Q1~QN的基極端耦接至各電阻R1~RN，各電晶體Q1~QN的射極端耦接至各開關S1~SN。其中，N為正整數。The switch module 208 includes switches S1 to SN and buffer circuits B1 B BN, and each of the buffer circuits B1 B BN is coupled to the corresponding switches S1 to SN. Each power output interface 202-1~202-N is coupled to two of the switches S1~SN. Each of the switches S1 SN SN is coupled to the control module 204 , the detecting component 206 , and the input power source 40 . Each of the buffer circuits B1 to BN includes each of the transistors Q1 to QN and the respective resistors R1 to RN. Each of the transistors Q1 to QN is coupled to the corresponding switches S1 to SN, and the resistors R1 to RN are coupled between the control module 204 and the corresponding transistors Q1 to QN. For example, the transistors Q1~QN may be NPN bipolar junction transistors (BJT), and the switches S1~SN may be electromagnetic switches (for example, relays). The collector terminals of each of the transistors Q1 to QN are coupled to the reference voltage VREF, and the base terminals of the transistors Q1 to QN are coupled to the resistors R1 to RN, and the emitter terminals of the transistors Q1 to QN are coupled to the switches S1. ~SN. Where N is a positive integer.
以下將詳細說明電力監控裝置20的作動方式，請同時參考圖1與圖2。舉例來說，家中的熱水器與冷氣可分別接於電源輸出介面202-1與202-N上，家庭成員若想在回家之前將家中原本 關閉的熱水器與冷氣打開，家庭成員可透過監控主機50傳送指令至電力監控裝置20對熱水器與冷氣的電源狀態進行控制。其中，控制模組204中的信號收發器234會接收上述的傳送指令。控制模組204中的控制器214由檢測元件206所傳送的用電資訊A2中得知電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N不提供輸出電源(導致熱水器與冷氣是關閉的狀態)後，控制器214會產生控制信號C1與控制信號CN-1將電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N的輸出電源打開。開關模組208依據接收到的控制信號C1與控制信號CN-1將開關S1與開關SN-1導通(例如：將開關S1的端點S11與端點S12耦接，將開關SN-1的端點SN-11與端點SN-12耦接)。此時，輸入電源40可經由電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N輸出電源至熱水器與冷氣(此時熱水器與冷氣是打開的狀態)。The mode of operation of the power monitoring device 20 will be described in detail below. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 at the same time. For example, the water heater and air conditioner in the home can be connected to the power output interfaces 202-1 and 202-N respectively. If the family members want to return home before going home, The closed water heater and the cold air are turned on, and the family member can transmit a command to the power monitoring device 20 through the monitoring host 50 to control the power state of the water heater and the cold air. The signal transceiver 234 in the control module 204 receives the above-mentioned transfer command. The controller 214 in the control module 204 is informed by the power information A2 transmitted by the detecting component 206 that the power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202-N do not provide output power (causing the water heater and the air conditioner to be off). Thereafter, the controller 214 generates a control signal C1 and a control signal CN-1 to turn on the output power of the power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202-N. The switch module 208 turns on the switch S1 and the switch SN-1 according to the received control signal C1 and the control signal CN-1 (for example, coupling the end point S11 of the switch S1 with the end point S12, and the end of the switch SN-1 Point SN-11 is coupled to endpoint SN-12). At this time, the input power source 40 can output power to the water heater and the cold air via the power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202-N (when the water heater and the cold air are turned on).
同理可知，電力監控裝置20若想將家中原本打開的熱水器與冷氣關閉，監控主機50傳送指令至電力監控裝置20對熱水器與冷氣的電源狀態進行控制。開關模組208可依據接收到的控制信號C1與控制信號CN-1將開關S1與開關SN-1斷開，原本提供輸出電源的電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N便不再提供輸出電源(此時熱水器與冷氣是關閉的狀態)。另一方面，電力監控裝置20也可直接對輸入電源40的電源狀態進行控制。舉例來說，若是有緊急狀況發生時(例如：颱風或地震)，家庭成員可透過監控主機50遠端切斷輸入電源40，以避免災害的發生。值 得注意的是，由於檢測元件206可將用電資訊A2傳送至控制模組204。因此，監控主機50也可接收用電資訊A2。換句話說，監控主機50與電力監控裝置20的資訊傳送是雙向式的，因此提升了使用上的便利性。舉例來說，監控主機50(例如：智慧型手機或平板電腦)可由電力監控裝置20接收電器的用電資料記錄。因此，在監控主機50上即可得知電器的用電資訊。Similarly, if the power monitoring device 20 wants to turn off the water heater and the cold air that were originally turned on in the home, the monitoring host 50 transmits a command to the power monitoring device 20 to control the power state of the water heater and the cold air. The switch module 208 can disconnect the switch S1 from the switch SN-1 according to the received control signal C1 and the control signal CN-1. The power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202-N that originally provided the output power are no longer used. Provide output power (in this case, the water heater and air conditioner are off). On the other hand, the power monitoring device 20 can directly control the power state of the input power source 40. For example, if an emergency occurs (for example, a typhoon or an earthquake), the family member can cut off the input power source 40 through the remote end of the monitoring host 50 to avoid a disaster. value It should be noted that the detection component 206 can transmit the power information A2 to the control module 204. Therefore, the monitoring host 50 can also receive the power information A2. In other words, the information transfer between the monitoring host 50 and the power monitoring device 20 is two-way, thereby improving the convenience in use. For example, the monitoring host 50 (eg, a smart phone or tablet) can receive the electrical data record of the appliance from the power monitoring device 20. Therefore, the power consumption information of the appliance can be known on the monitoring host 50.
在另一實施例中，電力監控裝置20可檢測電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N的用電情況。舉例來說，開關模組208可依據接收到的控制信號C2與控制信號CN將開關S2與開關SN導通(例如：將開關S2的端點S21與端點S22耦接，將開關SN的端點SN1與端點SN2耦接)。檢測元件206便可對電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N的用電情況進行檢測。同理可知，開關模組208可依據接收到的控制信號C2與控制信號CN將開關S2與開關SN斷開，此時，檢測元件206便不再對電源輸出介面202-1與電源輸出介面202-N的用電情況進行檢測。另一方面，電力監控裝置20也可對輸入電源40的用電情況進行檢測。舉例來說，咖啡店可利用電力監控裝置20來監控店內插座的用電情形，並結合計費系統對使用連接至各電源輸出介面202-1~202-N的各插座的客人收取費用。In another embodiment, the power monitoring device 20 can detect the power usage of the power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202-N. For example, the switch module 208 can turn on the switch S2 and the switch SN according to the received control signal C2 and the control signal CN (for example, coupling the end point S21 of the switch S2 with the end point S22, and the end point of the switch SN SN1 is coupled to endpoint SN2). The detecting component 206 can detect the power usage of the power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202-N. Similarly, the switch module 208 can disconnect the switch S2 from the switch SN according to the received control signal C2 and the control signal CN. At this time, the detecting component 206 no longer has the power output interface 202-1 and the power output interface 202. -N is tested for power usage. On the other hand, the power monitoring device 20 can also detect the power usage of the input power source 40. For example, the coffee shop can utilize the power monitoring device 20 to monitor the power usage of the in-store outlets, and in conjunction with the billing system, charges the guests using the outlets connected to the respective power output interfaces 202-1~202-N.

The novel creation is not limited thereto. In other words, in the embodiment of the novel creation, The designer can selectively power on or measure the power output interface 202-1~202-N and the input power source 40 according to actual needs.
