Abstract

An alarm notification system is herein disclosed, which allows to pair a portable alarm device with the pairing software in a smart device such that the portable alarm device is able to turn on the wireless transmission function and connect to a server appliance, and since the alarm central control device is connected to the server appliance, an alarm detection device and an anti-theft device, in case that the alarm detection device detects any abnormal event and generate an alarm notification signal, the generated signal can be transferred to the portable alarm device via the server appliance, and then it is possible to choose to press down a button on the portable alarm device in order to generate a report control signal which can be sent to the alarm central control device by way of the server appliance, thus that the alarm central control device may control the operation of the anti-theft device in accordance with the received report control signal.

Claims

1. An alarm notification system, comprising:

a server appliance;

an alarm central control device, connected to the service appliance, one or more alarm detection devices and at least one anti-theft device, and including;

a central control controller unit, used to control the operation of the alarm central control device;

a network connection unit, electrically connected to the central control controller unit in order to connect to the Internet such that the central control controller unit can transfer an alarm notification signal to the server appliance, or receive a report control signal sent by the server appliance thus that the central control controller unit can control the operation of the anti-theft device based on the received report control signal;

an intelligent device, including;

a hotspot sharing unit, used to open and provide at least a Wi-Fi hotspot having a connection name and a connection password;

a pairing software, capable of connecting to the hotspot sharing unit so as to, after receiving a connection signal, send out the connection name and the connection password of the Wi-Fi hotspot;

a portable alarm device, including;

a power source voltage regulator unit, used to provide required electric power for the operation of the portable alarm device;

an alarm control unit, electrically connected to the power source voltage regulator unit so as to control the operation of the portable alarm device, and further allowing to detect the operation condition in the portable alarm device;

a pairing unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and capable of transferring the connection signal to be received by the pairing software in the intelligent device, such that the pairing software can further transfer the connection name and the connection password of the Wi-Fi hotspot to the pairing unit;

a wireless transmission unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and capable of enabling the wireless transmission function with the above-said connection name and connection password of the Wi-Fi hotspot thereby connecting to the Internet;

also, the wireless transmission unit can receive the alarm notification signal transferred by the server appliance and then transfer to the alarm control unit in the portable alarm device, or alternatively, the alarm control unit in the portable alarm device can generate the report control signal which can be transferred to the server appliance by means of the wireless transmission unit;

a wireless status display unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit for displaying the operation condition in the wireless transmission unit;

an alarm notification display unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and used for displaying after the alarm control unit receiving the alarm notification signal;

an acoustic output unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and used for generating the audio signal after the alarm control unit receiving the alarm notification signal;

a system status display unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and used for displaying the operation condition in the portable alarm device after the alarm control unit having detected the operation condition in the portable alarm device;

a reset button unit, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and used for pressing down thereby configuring the pairing connection with the portable alarm device; and

one or more control button units, electrically connected to the alarm control unit and the power source voltage regulator unit and used for pressing down thereby controlling the operation of the alarm control unit.

2. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the alarm detection device is a siren or a sensor.

3. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the anti-theft device is a camera, a microphone and/or a remote alarm device.

4. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein, after the reset button unit being pressed down, the alarm control unit controls the pairing unit to transfer the connection signal and receives the connection name and the connection password of the Wi-Fi hotspot such that the wireless transmission unit can start the wireless transmission function with the connection name and the connection password of the Wi-Fi hotspot and connect to the server appliance.

5. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the alarm control unit can set up the pressdown modes of the control button unit and control the operation of the alarm control unit in accordance with such different pressdown modes.

6. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the alarm control unit can be configured to, after receiving the alarm notification signal, automatically start the alarm notification display unit and/or the acoustic output unit.

7. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the alarm control unit can be configured such that, after receiving the alarm notification signal, the alarm control unit can start the alarm notification display unit and/or the acoustic output unit only when the control button unit is pressed down.

8. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the wireless status display unit, the alarm notification display unit and the system status display unit are Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs).

9. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the acoustic output unit is a buzzer or a speaker.

10. The alarm notification system according to claim 1, wherein the power source voltage regulator unit can be a battery or a regulator circuit, and the regulator circuit can be further connected to an external power source.
