However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, the input terminal of the switching power supply step-down circuit is electrically connected to the mains power terminal, the output terminal of the switching power supply step-down circuit is electrically connected to the LDO step-down circuit, and the LDO step-down circuit is electrically connected to the main control (MCU).

[0034] Combination Figures 2-6 As shown, the main controller is electrically connected to the Wi-Fi module, the switching circuit, and the power metering and detection circuit, respectively. The power metering and detection circuit is electrically connected to the current detection circuit and the voltage detection circuit, respectively.

[0035] The current detection circuit and the voltage detection circuit are respectively electrically connected to the two ends of the mains power supply to avoid mutual interference between the two detection circuits;

[0036] Combination Figure 3 As shown, the switching circuit is equipped with a driver IC. The switching circuit is electrically connected to the coil control terminal of the control relay. The two output terminals of the control relay are electrically connected to switch position one and switch position two, respectively. The input terminal of the control relay is electrically connected to one end of the mains power.

[0037] The control relay and the current detection circuit are connected to the same mains power terminal to ensure accurate current detection and switching control of the load.

[0038] Specifically, in combination Figures 7-8 As shown, it also includes: an LED status indicator circuit, which is electrically connected to the main control unit and is used to display the current working status of the device, the circuit working status, and the switch position status;

[0039] A function button module is electrically connected with the main control, and a user controls the device and controls the switch gear through the function button module.

[0040] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3 、 Figure 6 The current detection circuit is provided with a detection resistor RS1, an input end of the detection resistor RS1 is electrically connected with one end ACL of the commercial power, an output end of the detection resistor RS1 is electrically connected with an input end of the control relay K1, an output end T1 of the control relay K1 is electrically connected with the switch gear one, and an output end T2 of the control relay K1 is electrically connected with the switch gear two.

[0041] The coil control end of the control relay K1 is electrically connected with the driving IC-U2, and is connected in parallel with an absorber D2, the absorber D2 is used for absorbing static electricity and discharging of the coil, and the absorber D2 can be an electrostatic suppressor.

[0042] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 3 The main control is electrically connected with a wifi module control circuit, the control of the driving IC by the main control and the control of the driving IC by the main control according to information of the wifi module are both implemented through the wifi module control circuit.

[0043] In use, a terminal in the hand of a user performs wireless communication with the main control through the wifi module, so as to realize control of the main control, control of the switch gear, and acquisition of the current switch gear state, the load working state, and the state of the switch circuit.

[0044] In addition, the main control acquires the switch gear currently turned on by the control relay through the state acquisition method one or the state acquisition method two.

[0045] The state acquisition method one includes: 1.

[0047] In the case of sudden disconnection and automatic recovery of the mains, the device will be powered off and powered on again, and the device will automatically perform initialization. At this time, if the light is in the on state after initialization and there is no one in the room, it will cause waste of electric energy. The first and second state acquisition methods are used to turn off the load after initialization to avoid waste of electric energy.

[0050] When any one or more of the voltage protection threshold, the current protection threshold and the frequency protection threshold of the current switch circuit with load are triggered, the master control outputs a load removal protection signal to the user;

[0051] The load removal protection method avoids the load working in an abnormal state, and reminds the user to check the switch circuit to restore the normal working state of the circuit.

[0052] In summary, the above-mentioned intelligent switch control device realizes the compatibility of traditional non-intelligent switch circuit, and does not need to make substantial modification to the existing line, solves the problem of user wiring difficulty, and further facilitates the user to control the light intelligently;

[0053] The current, voltage and power of the switch circuit with load are detected, and the results are fed back to the user's device through the wifi module, or directly output to the panel display screen;

[0054] The current switched gear is detected and judged, and then the user can control the lamp and improve the accuracy of judgment, and the initialization operation of the ordinary intelligent switch is more simple and convenient, and the load of the switch circuit is removed in the abnormal state of the circuit.
