[0042] This utility model provides a switch operation component, such as... Figures 1 to 8 and Figures 10 to 13 As shown, the device includes a control device 1 and a switch operating accessory 3. The switch operating accessory 3 includes an accessory housing 33 and a gear 312 and an operating member 322 that mesh with each other within the accessory housing 33. The control device 1 includes a power output assembly 13 and a control assembly 12. The power output assembly 13 includes a rotatable power output shaft 131, which is detachably connected to the gear 312. Rotation of the power output shaft 131 drives the gear 312 to rotate, and the operating member 322 moves under the drive of the gear 312 to contact the on / off switch 42 of the switch device 4 and control the opening and closing of the switch device 4. The control assembly 12 is electrically connected to the power output assembly 13 and is used to receive control signals and control the operation of the power output assembly 13.

[0043] In this embodiment, the control device 1 controls the power output shaft 131 to drive the gear 312 to rotate, so that the operating member 322 meshing with the gear 312 moves linearly under the drive of the gear 312. During the movement of the operating member 322, it can contact the switch key 42 of the switch device 4 and control the opening and closing of the switch device 4, converting the rotational motion into precise linear motion, ensuring that the operating member 322 can stably press the switch key 42, which is suitable for switch types with different strokes (such as rocker switch 401), improves the reliability of the action, and realizes intelligent control of ordinary switch devices 4; and the switch operating accessory 3 has a simple structure and reliable installation.

[0044] The gear 312 and the power output shaft 131 of the control device 1 are detachably connected, enabling a modular design for the switch operating accessory 3 and the control device 1. When a part is damaged, it can be partially replaced, avoiding complete replacement, preventing waste, and reducing costs. Furthermore, different types of switch operating accessories can be replaced to work with the control device 1 according to different usage scenarios, thereby improving the applicability of the control device 1. The switch device 4 includes a panel 41 and a switch 42.

[0045] As one implementation method, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the operating member 322 includes two racks 322C, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the gear 312 and mesh with the gear 312. The two racks 322C reciprocate under the drive of the gear 312.

[0046] As one implementation method, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, when gear 312 rotates under the drive of power output shaft 131, one of the two racks 322C moves along the first direction L, and the other moves along the second direction R opposite to the first direction L, so as to achieve reciprocating motion. Specifically, the racks 322C on both sides move synchronously in opposite directions to achieve bidirectional force application, avoid the return unload of one side rack 322C, improve response speed and stability, and ensure uniform pressing force.

[0047] As one implementation method, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the accessory housing 33 has an operating groove 333 corresponding to the movement direction of each rack 322C. The operating component 322 also includes an operating rod 322A on each rack 322 that passes through the corresponding operating groove 333. The two operating rods 322A move under the drive of the corresponding rack 322C to press the switch 42. Among them, the side of the operating rod 322A facing the switch 42 is also provided with an operating boss 322A1. The operating boss 322A1 is used to press the switch 42 and improve the pressing accuracy. The operating groove 333 restricts the movement trajectory of the rack 322C to prevent lateral deviation. At the same time, the exposed part of the operating rod 322A can be flexibly adjusted in length to adapt to different switch protrusion heights.

[0048] As one implementation method, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the operating component 322 also includes a sliding boss 322B on the rack 322C on the opposite side of the operating lever 322A. The accessory housing 33 has a sliding positioning groove 337 for accommodating the sliding boss 322B. The sliding positioning groove 337 restricts the movement trajectory of the sliding boss 322B, preventing the rack 322 from deviating or disengaging, thereby improving the movement accuracy and durability. Specifically, the operating component 322 includes a rack 322C, an operating lever 322A, and a sliding boss 322B. Both racks 322C are provided with teeth that mesh with the gear 312. Each rack 322C has two opposite sides adjacent to the teeth, which are respectively provided with an operating lever 322A and a sliding boss 322B. The operating lever 322A has an L-shaped structure. One end of the operating lever 322A is connected to the rack 322C, and the other end is bent (forming an operating boss 322A1) for touching the on / off key 42.

[0049] As one implementation method, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the accessory housing 33 is provided with an accessory shaft hole 334 coaxial with the gear 312, and the power output shaft 131 of the control device 1 passes through the accessory shaft hole 334 and is detachably connected to the gear 312.

[0050] As one implementation method, such as Figures 3 to 10 As shown, gear 312 includes a gear body 312A and a fixing part 312B connected to each other. The fixing part 312B is located in the accessory shaft hole 334, which can realize the rotational freedom of gear 312. The power output shaft 131 and gear 312 are connected by a second fixing member 52. Gear 312 has a fixing member through hole 313 along its axial direction, and power output shaft 131 has a shaft end threaded hole 131A. The second fixing member 52 passes through the fixing member through hole 313 and is engaged with the shaft end threaded hole 131A. Among them, gear 312 and power output shaft 131 are detachably connected by the second fixing member 52 (such as screws). The threaded fixation ensures axial tightness, facilitates quick replacement of damaged parts, and reduces maintenance costs. At the same time, it supports the adaptation of different types of switch operation accessories, expanding the application scenarios.

[0051] As one implementation method, such as Figure 7 and Figure 12 As shown, the fixing part 312B is provided with a flat hole 314 coaxially arranged with the through hole 313 of the fixing member, and the power output shaft 131 is provided with a shaft flat 131B that mates with the flat hole 314. The shaft flat 131B is confined in the flat hole 314. The mate between the flat hole 314 and the shaft flat 131B achieves circumferential confinement, eliminates relative rotation during transmission, avoids slippage caused by loose screw connection, and ensures power transmission efficiency. Power transmission is achieved by connecting the flat hole 314 and the shaft flat 131B and fixing them with screws.

[0052] As one implementation method, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner wall of the accessory housing 33 is provided with an annular limiting step 335 on the outer periphery of the accessory shaft hole 334, which is used to limit the gear body 312A and restrict the range of movement of the gear 312 in the axial direction (power output shaft 131 direction), prevent the gear 312 from axially moving due to vibration or load changes during operation, ensure that the meshing position of the gear 312 and the rack 322 is always accurate, avoid tooth dislodging or jamming, improve transmission stability and reduce maintenance costs.

[0053] As one implementation method, such as Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the accessory housing 33 includes a detachably connected accessory base shell 331 and accessory outer shell 332. An accessory shaft hole 334 is formed on the accessory base shell 331. The accessory base shell 331 and accessory outer shell 332 can be connected by a third fastener 53 (screw or bolt). In this embodiment, the detachable housing structure makes the installation and replacement of internal components such as the gear 312 and operating element 322 more convenient without damaging the overall structure. If parts wear out, only the housing needs to be disassembled to replace the corresponding parts, without the need for complete scrapping, thus reducing maintenance costs.

[0054] As one implementation method, such as Figures 2 to 5 and Figure 10 As shown, the accessory housing 33 has a through accessory mounting hole 336. The first fastener 51 passes through the accessory mounting hole 336 (the accessory bottom shell 331 and the accessory outer shell 332 are provided accordingly) and is threadedly connected to the control device 1. The housing of the control device 1 is provided with a corresponding host fixing hole 115. The first fastener 51 can be a screw or a bolt.

[0055] This utility model also provides an intelligent operating device, such as Figure 1 and Figure 13 As shown, the device includes a fixing device 2 and a switch operation assembly as described above. The control device 1 is mounted on the fixing device 2, which is used to connect to an external mounting surface. Specifically, the fixing device 2 includes a fixing surface 201 and a connecting surface 202. The control device 1 is fixed on the fixing surface 201, and the connecting surface 202 is provided with a mounting structure (not shown) for connecting to the external mounting surface. Through the mounting structure, the fixing device 2 can be mounted on the external mounting surface, realizing multi-scenario installation and fixing of the control device 1, improving the fixing stability and application diversity of the control device 1, and stabilizing the output torque. The external mounting surface can be the panel 41 of the switch device 4. The mounting structure can be an adhesive layer (not shown) provided on the connecting surface 202; or a fixing mounting hole (not shown) penetrating the connecting surface 202 and its opposite surface, and installed on the external mounting surface by bolts or other fasteners.

[0056] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the control device 1 includes a housing assembly 11 and a control component 12, a power output component 13, an energy component 14, a button component 15, and a sensor component 16 installed within the housing assembly 11. The power output component 13 includes a power output shaft 131, a motor 132, and a reduction gearbox 133. The power output shaft 131 is detachably connected to the switch operating accessory 3. The control component 12 controls the motor 132 to drive the power output shaft 131 to rotate, thereby driving the switch operating accessory 3 to move to open and close the switch 42. The energy component 14 can provide electrical energy to each component. The button component 15 can send signals to the control component 12 to control the control device 1, such as reset, network connection, open or close commands, etc. The sensor component 16 can detect and provide feedback on environmental conditions. Based on these data changes, it can remotely control the device to determine whether the control device 1 has executed the commands correctly and whether the operated equipment is working properly, similar to a person observing its status. It has a high degree of intelligence and reduces the need for on-site inspections.
