Abstract

A password setting method includes the following steps of: providing a lock body, which is configured with identification data; providing a reset device including a RFID, which has characteristic data; accessing the RFID to obtain the characteristic data; transmitting the characteristic data to the lock body; comparing the characteristic data and the identification data; and when the characteristic data matches the identification data, enabling a password setting function of the lock body. In addition, a password setting system and a lockset matching method and system are also disclosed.

Claims

1. A password setting method, comprising steps of:

providing a lock body, which is configured with identification data;

providing a reset device including a RFID, which has characteristic data;

accessing the RFID to obtain the characteristic data;

transmitting the characteristic data to the lock body;

comparing the characteristic data and the identification data; and

when the characteristic data matches the identification data, enabling a password setting function of the lock body.

2. The password setting method of claim 1, wherein the characteristic data are tag information, or a combination of tag information and encoded tag information.

3. The password setting method of claim 2, wherein the encoded tag information are digital data, image data or voice data.

4. The password setting method of claim 1, wherein the step of transmitting the characteristic data to the lock body comprises:

converting the characteristic data into encoded characteristic data according to an encoding algorithm; and

transmitting the encoded characteristic data to the lock body.

5. The password setting method of claim 1, wherein the lock body is a physical lock, an e-file lock, or a circuit lock.

6. A lock body cooperated with a reset device, which includes a RFID having readable characteristic data, the lock body comprising:

a memory module storing identification data; and

a judgement module determining whether the character data matches the identification data or not, and when the character data matches the identification data, enabling a password setting function;

wherein the accessed characteristic data is transmitted to the lock body by wireless transmission.

7. The lock body of claim 6, wherein the characteristic data are tag information, or a combination of tag information and encoded tag information.

8. The lock body of claim 6, wherein the lock body is a physical lock, an e-file lock, or a circuit lock.

9. A lockset matching system, comprising:

a lockset accessory having a first identification value;

an operation apparatus having an access/transmission device for accessing and transmitting the first identification value of the lockset accessory; and

a lockset device having a second calculation device, a judgement module and a memory module, wherein after the lockset device receives the first identification value, the second calculation device generates a second identification value corresponding to the first identification value;

wherein, after the lockset device generates the second identification value and the judgement module determines that the second identification value is identical to the first identification value, the first identification value is stored in the memory module so as to finish a matching procedure of the lockset matching system.

10. The lockset matching system of claim 9, wherein the access/transmission device accesses and transmits the first identification value of the lockset accessory by a barcode scanner, NFC, RFID, Bluetooth, IrDA, ZigBee, UWB, IEEE or Hiper LAN.

11. The lockset matching system of claim 9, wherein the lockset accessory has a first calculation device for generating the first identification value, after the lockset device receives the first identification value from the operation apparatus, the second calculation device generates the second identification value corresponding to the first identification value according to the first identification value, and after the lockset device generates the second identification value and the judgement module determines that the second identification value is identical to the first identification value, the first identification value is stored in the memory module of the lockset device so as to finish the matching procedure of the lockset matching system.

12. The lockset matching system of claim 11, wherein the access/transmission device accesses and transmits the first identification value of the lockset accessory by a barcode scanner, NFC, RFID, Bluetooth, IrDA, ZigBee, UWB, IEEE or Hiper LAN.

13. A lockset matching method, comprising steps of:

generating a first identification value by a lockset accessory;

accessing a first identification value of the lockset accessory by an access/transmission device of an operation apparatus;

transmitting the first identification value to a lockset device by the access/transmission device of the operation apparatus;

generating a second identification value corresponding to the first identification value by a second calculation device of the lockset device according to the first identification value; and

determining whether the first identification value is identical to the second identification value, and if yes, storing the first identification value in the lockset device so as to finish a matching procedure.
