Doorbell Section

The basic parts
When I travel, the coverage with WiFi is better than with a sim card. Why 2 networks?. Since it's the same. Here's a suggestion for a PBX (telephone exchange). Where you can talk to all in the world without restrictions.

All parts can be purchased individually.

Or purchase the Module design package and obtain the units you need yourself.

The heart

Here the various units are assembled. ESP32, WiFi , Bluetooth, microphone and speaker output. When assembling I use B-7000 rubber glue as this is easy to remove. When everything is assembled, the setup is tested. The lid of the heart is put on and only power is required otherwise no wiring.

The individual

For the household that wants video. With radar, light sensor and flash. Extra microphone and amplifier. The modules are connected together and only require a power supply.

To every individual in the world

Each device is a virtual part of the network. With quite a few servers in each country. Can these virtual mini door units connect everyone. So in principle we can have a board with door presses for everyone in the world. And just to hear if Kong Fu is at home in Indochina.

With external devices

Friends
All external devices are designed as a virtual device and only require a phone charger or battery. Even made a drone that can fly out with a conversation device. Not a geek?.

Construction kit or buy a ready-made one

Couldn't find a box that could be used practically for these cheap boards which often costs under 10 USD each. So here is my take on a design. A simple assembly kit.

ASSIGNMENT
Prototype these chips into a usable doorbell. And show how I productize the doorbell into a saleable product.

As a person who is interested in making an (electronics) kit. Which is assembled from chips and pieces from the internet.

When I was a boy sometime in the 1960s, I thought that when I grew up cars would fly and by concentrating on one place, you would be there. Alas. But even though I have reached the millennium year 2000, my feet are still planted on the ground, and cars don't usually fly today?

JostyKit
Old Danish company
The Danish company JostyKit sold electronics kits.

Sound systems, lighting controls, motor accessories, components and probably Denmark's first game console in the 60s. A year ago I started by making this assembly kit. With JostyKit in mind. And here are the results. With these goals in mind.

  1. It should look like a doorbell as we know them in Denmark in the 60s.
    Same size
  2. The parts should be cheap and freely available.
    Found huge price differences.
  3. Anyone should be able to collect it.
    good guidance
  4. Must be usable from 1-10000 households.
    Personal service
  5. Everyone should be able to communicate with their doorbell. (1
    Individuality.
  6. Must be free to use.
    Free as in free.


(1.

By making all doorbells independent, those who want to answer the doorbell on the Internet can do so. whereby everything is individual. Like in the old days ('one bell - 'one person). Totally decentralized.

Property intercom system multi-unit
Door pressure is completely independent of other door pressures.

These have their own control system, bluetooth and wifi system. With outputs for controls such as lights, locking systems and only your imagination sets the limits. And can be expanded to independent groups. I quickly realized that each doorbell had to have its own control system, so no wiring was necessary. The doorbell with Name is made wireless from the start. How to get it running? Only what we all know?, a phone charger. So you have a phone charger lying around?. Then you have the power supply for the doorbell.

Bell switch Modul

With microphone and speaker. Size ratio of a matchstick.

The parts of the design house as seen here without units.Costs at the current exchange rate US $14.

The module can be set individually, decentralized and/or in groups. With the same or different functions. No restriction.
Modules can work with the same or their own power supply.
...
Power supply

Everything is up and running with a phone adapter. For multiple doorbells 1 to 100.... Look at our power supplies. Each unit can also run on a battery pack.

What can it do?
This little gadget with micros and other electronics.

Everything an old-fashioned doorbell can do. Make a bell ring. If that's what you want. Pop up on mobile devices, your home computer, tablet and or on the TV. If that's what you want. You can have a conversation with the person who pressed the bell. And open the door. Works everywhere where the WiFi network reaches. For the laundry room, the attic, the garden, the property. Here you can just expand with cheap WiFi extenders.

The name plate
Background LEDs are used here.

As the picture illustrates, there is a clear front plate. The nameplate itself. The nameplate can be drawn or printed on Laser or Inkjet and then laminated. The type of paper you choose to print on determines the light transmission. (How thick is the paper?). With the type of LED chosen here, the rainbow colors as light intensity can be freely selected. It is also easy to replace "The Nameplate" if a new one comes on the scene.

Base holder for the ESP32

1. shows the holders that will hold the ESP32. On a new 3D print, these must be cut off, as shown in 2. Wires 3. are fed into the holes that will be used, remember they must reach the end of the hole. When all wires are fixed, use tape. lock 4. ESP32. It took me a while to figure it out. If you absolutely want to solder, you can do this too.A real (©)Blohm assembly for easy replacement. NB design only for 0.5mm rigid wire.

Friends
We need 2 wires 2.for the bell button. But all holes from left to right must be mounted, to maintain contact. Wires are passed through so that they reach their end point hole 1. One wire from A and one from B must be used. The two that are not used are cut. Then the button 3. is pressed into place. It took some time to design this (©)Blohm solution so that you don't have to solder. NB design only for 0.5mm rigid wire.

The base plate is now ready.
I mentioned that you could use tape but a glue gun is what I often use.

Glue gun minimum 100W. Find one online.
Glue Gun...
A good Cutting Pliers Cable Wire Cutter makes the job easy. If it's good at cutting nails, it's perfect for electronics. Remember, it doesn't matter whether you cut in or out. Whether the nail pops out into the room or toward you when you cut. But also where the stresses occur and the cut is made.Find one online.
Precision Diagonal Cutting...

The name plate
Wire Solder Jig.

If you look closely at 2. you will find 26 holes distributed with 5 on each short side and 8 on each of the long sides. When you insert from the inside, holes have been made that are made as cable holders. And from the outside, insert (RED)3. + (BLACK)4. together. This allows you to distribute the different signal sources. In this way, a number of ring buttons can be connected with 0.5mm rigid cable.
(©)Blohm solution.
I made all these holes to be able to run cables for any other functions.
For the ring pressure only 2 are used. +5Volt and -Volt.
Remember FLUX when soldering and only heat enough until the cables are accurately connected.
5. Shows where the beam must be cut (4 places) to fix the ESP32 microcontroller.
Remember when mounting the speaker, it must be secured to the sides so that the setup does not grow. It is not only the speakers that need to be held down.

1. Base holder 2. The Lid

1. Shows the base part with all parts ESP32 supermini C6, speaker, amplifier, microphone and push button. It is now important to make sure that it can close and the wires are in their place according to the diagram at the bottom of the page.

Cable connection to the LED light source

1. Shows where the cables should be located, it is important that they go all the way to their end hole.
2. Shows the back of the lid where the cables should be fed in. Only one side should do this and as the diagram shows there are two ground connections you only need one so 3 wires. If you want to be safe you put 4. If you don't want children then use 10 (just kidding?).

LED Light source mounting

When you carefully tighten the screws at the LED unit, contact is made to the wires that have just been mounted. So contact and no soldering for the LED mounting. (©)Blohm design.

Soldering. As with everything else
Quietly and carefully apply the heat until the tin flows. It is important that the item is fixed. ESP32 development boards have normal 2.54mm pinheaders the distance between the pins.
I usually use 0.4mm diameter solder tin.

Soldering DuPont headers 2.54mm
Dupont headers are completely useless as they are of poor quality and grow in height. You need joints that do not have extension.

My experience with Dupont and other things that I often used in the workshop could not live up to expectations when they came out in the real world. Breadboards and such with all their convenience are useless there. So in the development phase it is important that the setup comes as close to reality as possible. So my strategy was to make the devices themselves with solder and as small connections as possible using 0.5mm wire. They can then be connected to a breadboard and put in the real setup. 0.5mm and not thinner?. Since with 0.5mm they have good contact in both places.

Why FLUX?
For electronics, the materials often consist of brass, copper, iron, steel and many others. Also, the materials are often dirty. Flux makes all of these compatible. Therefore, an important part of soldering.

Soldering ESP32 c6 supermini.

Watch the video..

On one of the pinheads I have put 4 wires on the same one. This cannot be done with Dupont without it taking up the entire setup.
I can then choose whether to solder them or use a glue gun. With the glue gun, they can be put on and taken off as you please.

Control(The Hero on a tightrope)

Each winding is checked and anything protruding is cut off.
