[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] The utility model provides a LED dimming driver which is easy to disassemble and assemble. Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it includes a lower cover 1, an upper cover 2 is installed on the upper part of the lower cover 1, a drive board 3 is arranged between the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 1, a communication board 4 is installed on the top of one end of the drive board 3, an antenna connector 41 is installed on the communication board 4, an antenna 5 is installed on the antenna connector 41, a support column 43 is installed at the corner of the communication board 4, a positioning groove 431 is provided on the top of the support column 43, and a positioning rod 24 is installed on the top inner wall of the upper cover 2, and the positioning rod 24 is plugged into the positioning groove 431. This plug-in design allows the communication board 4 to be accurately positioned and fixed between the upper cover 2 and the drive board 3 during the disassembly and assembly process without the need for additional positioning tools or complicated operating steps, thereby significantly simplifying the disassembly and assembly process and improving work efficiency. At the same time, the close fit between the positioning rod 24 and the positioning groove 431 also ensures the structural stability of the driver after assembly, effectively avoiding loosening or damage of internal components due to vibration or external force impact.

[0025] Furthermore, antenna connector 41 and antenna 5 mounted on communication board 4, supported by support columns 43, maintain a stable communication posture, ensuring reliable and stable signal transmission. This design not only optimizes the driver's communication performance but also provides users with a more stable and reliable dimming experience.

[0026] In this embodiment, mounting screw holes 11 are provided at the corners of the lower cover 1, and the upper cover 2 is secured to the lower cover 1 via bolts. By providing mounting screw holes at the corners of the lower cover and using bolts to securely connect the upper and lower covers, the overall structural strength and stability of the driver are ensured. This fixing method is not only simple and easy to use, but also effectively prevents the driver from disassembling due to vibration or external forces during use, thereby improving the durability and safety of the product.

[0027] Specifically, a wiring connector 31 is mounted on one end of the driver board 3, and a wiring opening 21 is provided on one end of the upper cover 2 near the wiring connector 31. The wiring connector on the driver board aligns with the wiring opening in the upper cover, allowing external wiring to be easily connected to the driver, achieving quick and convenient wiring connections. This design not only simplifies the installation process but also facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement, improving the product's usability and maintainability.

[0028] Furthermore, a dial switch 42 is mounted on the communication board 4, and a dial opening 22 is provided on the surface of the upper cover 2 near the dial switch 42. The dial switch on the communication board is exposed through the dial opening in the upper cover, allowing the user to directly operate the dial switch to adjust the driver's communication parameters or operating mode. This design improves the product's flexibility and adjustability, meeting the needs of different application scenarios.

[0029] Furthermore, an antenna mounting opening 23 is provided on the surface of the upper cover 2 near the antenna 5, through which the outer end of the antenna 5 extends. This opening provides a convenient location for the antenna to exit, ensuring it can freely receive and transmit signals, thereby improving the communication performance and stability of the driver. This design also facilitates antenna installation and commissioning, reducing the difficulty of product assembly.

[0030] Furthermore, the communication board 4 is supported on top of the driver board 3 by support columns 43, with the communication board 4 arranged parallel to the driver board 3. This design, supported above the driver board by the support columns and kept parallel to the driver board, not only ensures a stable connection between the communication board and the driver board but also provides ample space for the electronic components on the communication board, facilitating heat dissipation and reducing interference. Furthermore, the parallel arrangement facilitates signal transmission and data processing between the communication board and the driver board.

[0031] Furthermore, the lower cover 1 is equipped with a latch block on its side, and the upper cover 2 is equipped with a latch slot on its side, allowing the lower cover 1 to engage with the upper cover 2. This snap-fit ​​design between the lower and upper covers enables quick assembly and disassembly of the driver, as well as a tight closure. The combined use of the latch block and latch slot not only improves product assembly efficiency but also enhances the driver's overall sealing and protective performance.

[0032] Furthermore, the outer walls of the upper cover 2 are provided with several anti-slip grooves. These grooves enhance the user's grip during use, preventing damage or accidents caused by the driver slipping. Furthermore, the anti-slip grooves enhance the product's aesthetics and comfort.

[0033] When using this conveniently assembled and disassembled LED dimming driver, the driver board 3 first converts the input power into a constant current or constant voltage power source suitable for LED operation. By controlling the output current or voltage, the driver board 3 can adjust the brightness of the LED. The driver board 3 may also include a protection circuit to prevent abnormal conditions such as overcurrent, overvoltage, or short circuits in the LED.

[0034] Communication board 4 is responsible for receiving external control signals, such as dimming commands and communication parameter settings. Antenna 5 and antenna connector 41 are used to receive and transmit wireless signals, enabling communication with remote controls, intelligent control systems, etc. Dial-up switch 42 allows the user to manually set the operating mode or parameters of communication board 4, such as the communication address and baud rate.

[0035] Assembly process:

[0036] Install the driver board 3 on the lower cover 1 and ensure that it is fixed and stable. Install the communication board 4 on top of the driver board 3 using the support column 43, and make the positioning groove 431 plug and match with the positioning rod 24 of the upper cover 2 to achieve accurate positioning and fixation of the communication board 4. Connect the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 1 with bolts, and ensure that the line connector 31 is aligned with the line opening 21 to facilitate the access of external wires. Install the antenna 5 on the antenna connector 41 and ensure that the antenna 5 passes through the antenna mounting port 23. Adjust the setting of the dial 42 through the dial opening 22 as needed.

[0037] Usage process:

[0038] When the power is turned on, the driver board 3 begins operating, converting the input power into a current or voltage suitable for the LEDs. Users can send dimming commands to the communication board 4 via a remote control or intelligent control system. Upon receiving the dimming commands, the communication board 4 converts them into control signals and sends them to the driver board 3. Based on the control signals, the driver board 3 adjusts the output current or voltage, thereby changing the brightness of the LEDs. Throughout use, the anti-slip groove provides a stable grip, preventing the driver from slipping. Furthermore, the tight fit between the card block and the card slot ensures the driver's overall sealing and protective performance.

[0039] When maintenance or replacement of internal components is required, users can easily perform the operation by loosening the bolts and separating the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 1. After maintenance is completed, the drive can be reassembled by following the reverse steps.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the electronic components in the driving board 3, communication board 4, etc. in this embodiment are all universal standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structures and principles can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or through conventional experimental methods. In the idle area of ​​this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components are connected respectively through wires.
