You can apply for a utility model patent as soon as possible and protect the device by law.

Can't apply for a patent for invention; If you apply for a patent for invention again, the Patent Office will take "an automatic control method of XX device" as a comparison document during substantive examination, which will make "XX device" lose its novelty and get no authorization.

Descriptions related to structural parts of the device can be used.
