| Abstract: |
The add-on smart socket adaptor integrates electric facilicities and/or home appliances to be an intelligent system for the home automation. The add-on smart socket adaptor has the add-on multiple different sensors to detect the complex environmental changes as the inputs of the programmed logic to make the complex decision function to generate the output to turn on and/or turn off the multiple different home appliances and electrical facilities smoothly, separately and cooperatively. The add-on smart socket also can be built-in to integrate with the home appliances and electrical facilities to have the home automation. The add-on smart socket adaptor provides the open platform and standard for the synthesis of home automation integrated system.

First Claim:
Show all 27 claims |
What I claim is:
1. A smart socket adaptor comprising a plurality of monitoring means, program logic means, power means, signal bus means, a plurality of power plug means and socket adaptor means,
- for each of said a plurality of monitor means further comprising detecting device means, signal processing circuit means and drive circuit means to detect changes of environment and send signal through said signal bus means to said program logic means; said detecting device means detecting a change in environment to generate a detected signal, said signal processing circuit processing said detected signal and sending to said drive circuit means, said drive circuit means sending a driving signal on said signal bus means;
- said program logic means comprising programmable logic means to process said driving signals coming from said a plurality of monitor means to make combinatory logic decision functions of said signals coming from said a plurality of monitor means and sending output driving signal through said signal bus means again to said power means;
- for each of said a plurality of power means comprising switch means and relay means connecting said power plug means with said socket adaptor means, said output driving signal controlling said relay means to supply and interrupt power to said socket adaptor means.
