Safety reminding device and method based on bicycle-sharing

1. A safety reminding device applied in a bicycle-sharing system, the bicycle-sharing system comprising at least one bicycle, the at least one bicycle comprising a basket, the safety reminding device comprising:

a detecting unit to detect whether a person is sifting in the basket of the bicycle when the bicycle is unlocked;

a processor; and

a storage device storing one or more programs, when executed by the processor, the one or more programs cause the processor to:

detect whether the bicycle is unlocked;

control the detecting unit to detect whether a person is sifting in the basket of the bicycle when determining that the bicycle is unlocked;

determine whether a person is sifting in the basket according to a detection of the detecting unit; and

output a warning signal to inform a user that the basket is forbidden for sifting when determining that a person is sifting in the basket when the bicycle is unlocked.

2. The safety reminding device of claim 1 , wherein the detecting unit comprises an infrared transmitter, an infrared receiver, and a temperature sensor; the infrared transmitter and the infrared receiver are respectfully mounted on opposite sidewalls of the basket; the infrared receiver is configured to receive infrared rays transmitted by the infrared transmitter; the temperature sensor is triggered to detect a temperature of an object in the basket when the infrared transmitter transmits the infrared rays but no infrared rays is received by the infrared receiver; and it is determined that the object in the basket is a person when no infrared rays is received by the infrared receiver and the temperature value detected by the temperature sensor is within a preset temperature range.

3. The safety reminding device of claim 1 , wherein the safety reminding device further comprises a warning unit disposed on the bicycle, the warning signal is outputted by the warning unit.

4. The safety reminding device of claim 3 , wherein the warning unit outputs the warning signal for a preset time length, or outputs the warning signal until the person no longer sifting in the basket.

5. The safety reminding device of claim 1 , wherein the bicycle-sharing system further comprises a server system and at least one mobile device, the safety reminding device further comprises a communication device to communicate with the server system and the mobile device, the one or more programs further cause the processor to transmit the warning signal to the server system to cause the server system to transmit a prompt message to the mobile device, which scans a QR code of the bicycle to unlock the bicycle, to prompt the user that the basket of the bicycle is forbidden for sifting, and further cause the server system to deduct credit points of the user who use the bicycle.

6. The safety reminding device of claim 1 , wherein the bicycle-sharing system further comprises at least one mobile device, the safety reminding device further comprises a communication device to communicate with the at least one mobile device, the one or more programs further cause the processor to transmit the warning signal to the mobile device, which scans a QR code of the bicycle to unlock the bicycle, to cause the mobile device to output the warning signal to inform the user that the basket of the bicycle is forbidden for sifting.

7. The safety reminding device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is connected to a braking system of the bicycle, the one or more programs further cause the processor to control the braking system to brake the bicycle when determining that there is a person sifting in the basket, and control the braking system releases the bicycle when the person is no longer sifting in the basket.

8. A safety reminding method applied in a bicycle-sharing system, the bicycle-sharing system comprising at least one bicycle, the at least one bicycle comprising a basket, the safety reminding method comprising:

detecting whether the bicycle is unlocked;

determining whether a person is sifting in the basket of the bicycle after determining that the bicycle is unlocked; and

outputting a warning signal when determining that a person is sifting in the basket after the bicycle is unlocked.

9. The safety reminding method of claim 8 , wherein the bicycle comprises a detecting unit, the detecting unit comprises infrared transmitter, an infrared receiver, and a temperature sensor; the infrared transmitter and the infrared receiver are respectfully mounted on opposite sidewalls of the basket; the infrared receiver is configured to receive infrared rays transmitted by the infrared transmitter; the method for detecting whether a person is sifting in the basket of the bicycle comprises:

controlling the infrared transmitter to transmit infrared rays;

detecting whether the infrared receiver receives the infrared rays transmitted by the infrared transmitter;

controlling the temperature sensor to detect a temperature of an object in the basket when determining that the infrared transmitter transmits the infrared rays but no infrared rays is received by the infrared receiver; and

determining that there is a person sifting in the basket when no infrared rays is received by the infrared receiver and the temperature value detected by the temperature sensor is within a preset temperature range.

10. The safety reminding method of claim 8 , wherein the warning signal is outputted for a preset time length or is outputted until the person is no longer sitting in the basket.

11. The safety reminding method of claim 8 , wherein the bicycle-sharing system further comprises a server system and at least one mobile device, the method further comprises:

transmitting the warning signal to the server system to cause the server system to transmit a prompt message to the mobile device which scans a QR code of the bicycle to unlock the bicycle, and further cause the server system to deduct credit points of the user using the bicycle.

12. The safety reminding method of claim 8 , wherein the bicycle-sharing system further comprises at least one mobile device, the method further comprises:

transmitting the warning signal to the mobile device, which scans a QR code of the bicycle to unlock the bicycle, to cause the mobile device to output the warning signal to prompt the user that the basket of the bicycle is forbidden for sit.

13. The safety reminding method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:

controlling a braking system of the bicycle to brake the bicycle when determining that there is a person sifting in the basket; and

controlling the braking system to release the bicycle when the person is no longer sifting in the basket.
