Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the automatic detection of emergencies by means of measuring and analyzing the consumption of electricity, water and / or gas in the household and for the automatic generation and forwarding of alarms.
- a medical emergency is often characterized by a person being affected by serious health complications requiring timely medical attention, but whose side effects prevent those affected from requesting such assistance.
- the common stroke may be mentioned.
- a medically treatable emergency can be fatal if there is no third party to detect the emergency and alert medical help.
- the state of the art knows devices with which people can trigger an alarm in an emergency. For example, there are mobile phones that automatically press a particular button successively dial a series of phone numbers until a human caller answers the alarm. A special interaction with a special device thus triggers an alarm.
- the prior art has the disadvantage that the users have to deal with new technical equipment for them with quite sophisticated operation.
- the user is often confronted with this technique only in old age, in which the learning ability is often subject to restrictions.
- the former type of device also fails when the severity of the medical emergency itself prevents a simple keystroke.
- sensors detect a plurality of regularly used or operated domestic appliances.
- the sensors can also be used to monitor consumption meters.

- the control center informs a contact person on the basis of the personal data record in the event of an alarm message. This requires a transmission of the alarm message over the same data channel to the control center.
- the information can be made for example by an automatic telephone call or a personal contact by telephone.
- the personal information available at the control center is also used to process the alarm message.
- the comparison of the current consumption data with the reference data takes place in an electricity meter.
- the comparison can also take place at another, in particular between the metrological detection of consumption and the control center arranged device, such as at one intermediate communication interface or device.
- the integration of the associated evaluation step in the electricity meter is, however, possible with modern electricity meters without great effort, and there is no additional device to be installed.
- the reference data are configured by entering basic data and / or predefined on the basis of average consumption data.

- the invention is based on the recognition that the consumption of electricity, water, gas, heat etc. in the household to a great extent reflects the activities of the resident.
- the electricity consumption can be evaluated particularly favorable, since on the one hand its detection is technically very well controlled, and on the other hand, on the other hand, particularly reflects the activities of the resident.
- a healthy person typically switches on and off electrical consumers several times a day.
- the principle can be generalized to other consumer goods such as water, gas and heat, but will be explained further using the example of electricity consumption. In particular, getting up in the morning typically leaves behind highly significant patterns in electricity consumption. If these patterns are lacking, it can be concluded with great certainty that the resident has not started his daily activity phase, and therefore he has not gotten up.
- the device analyzes the course of the media consumption and compares it with the standard.
- consumption profiles determined for average users can be used, or individually configured basic values.
- the device learns both the individual consumption patterns of the User independently, as well as the consumption patterns of household appliances such as refrigerators, which have an automatically fluctuating consumption. This learning can be realized in a limited training phase, or run continuously in the background.
- the measured values can be processed in time and amplitude discretely by a digital arithmetic unit.
- Jump-shaped current changes can be detected, for example, with Hinkley detectors.

- the recording of active power and / or apparent power can be monitored. With a significant decrease in consumption changes, an alarm can be triggered.
- an alarm message via known data channels such as (mobile) telephony, radio or powerline carrier (PLC) can be passed to a control center.

- the control center requires a personal data record for each end customer. Adding this to a contact field for emergencies requires relatively little administrative overhead.
- the message may be processed at a lower level below the control center, regardless of the personal data processed in the control center.
- Similar solutions are known in telephone networks. There, call forwarding can be set up automatically via defined entries, without great administrative effort for the network operator.
- a particularly relevant application is the detection of burglaries.

- the data concentrator 24 requests by sending a corresponding command via the PLC connection 30, with a second interface of the communication device 120, the consumption data present in the communication device 120. This requirement causes the communication device 120 to encrypt its consumption data and send it to the data concentrator 24. Alternatively, this is timed without request by the data concentrator.

However, the beginning of the activity period of the following day is several hours overdue. Therefore, the communication device 120 generates an alarm message via a PLC connection 30 acting as a repeater Communication device 220 and another PLC connection 30 is sent to the data concentrator 24.
- the data concentrator 24 generates an e-mail that is sent via telephone network / Internet 40 to a relative in the household 14.
