Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of switch life test detection, and in particular to a multifunctional intelligent switch life tester. Background Art
[0002] With the development of the Internet of Things, intelligent products are increasingly becoming part of people's lives. Smart switches are gradually replacing traditional switches. These switches embed intelligent modules to control the on / off state of appliances. Currently, these switches incorporate intelligent modules such as Wi-Fi, ZigBee, Bluetooth, and power monitoring. As the level of intelligence continues to rise, and people increasingly use smart products, switches themselves require safety and overall performance testing to ensure they meet production standards. While smart switches offer a simple and convenient way to control the on and off of appliances, they can address energy waste caused by appliances being constantly in standby or working mode, making them safer to use. They can also scientifically manage appliance usage cycles, reduce energy waste during idle periods, extend appliance lifespans, and ultimately save energy. However, compared to traditional switches, smart switches have more complex internal structures, necessitating even greater safety and performance testing.
[0003] During the testing and certification process for smart switch products, it's difficult for laboratories to simulate actual environments when operating machines during product testing and verification, especially for products with different company-designed structures or different drive triggers. Currently, safety and performance testing machines only have simple button or touch travel operation modes. However, smart switches developed by companies on the market now have trigger modes such as manual touch, sound and motion sensing, human motion sensing, light sensing, and infrared sensing. Given the current complexity and diversity of products, laboratories need multi-functional testing equipment to meet market demand and truly drive and trigger smart switch products to verify product safety and performance reliability.
[0004] However, the equipment currently developed or used by equipment manufacturers or testing agencies are all single-function equipment. Products of different modes require a corresponding equipment, and multiple types of equipment need to be repeatedly invested, resulting in a waste of resources. In actual testing, various types of test equipment or drive devices are required. In the case of a product with multiple functions, the testers need to constantly replace the test equipment and drive devices. The testing process is cumbersome and difficult to operate. In addition, some traditional equipment cannot simulate the normal use of the product for testing, or there is no operating equipment with relevant functions at all, which cannot meet the requirements of the testing standards, resulting in inaccurate test results and affecting the healthy development of the overall smart switch industry.

[0028] The working principle of the present invention is specifically described as follows:
[0029] This design is an innovative research and development for the current situation that "smart switches have built-in intelligent modules such as Wifi, ZigBee, Bluetooth, and power monitoring. In order to have a product with multiple functions, the test personnel need to constantly replace the detection device and the drive device. The detection process is cumbersome and difficult to operate. In addition, some traditional equipment cannot simulate the normal use of the product for detection, or there is no operating equipment with relevant functions at all."
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, in the present invention, this design first meets the needs of products with different sizes and appearances that require different touch programs or touch times to drive. For smart switches that require different touch times to start and close, the multifunctional smart switch life testing machine has an intelligent operating robotic arm. Through software settings, it can intelligently operate various products that require manual triggering, and can set key parameters such as action stroke, time, speed, and rate through internal software to detect and verify products.
[0031] A display screen 204 is provided in the middle of the upper portion of the surface of the control chamber 103 of the load cabinet 1 in this design, a temperature control meter 203 is installed on the upper left side of the display screen 204, and a non-trigger light source button 201 and a trigger light source button 202 are installed on the left and right sides of the lower part of the temperature control meter; a start button 205 and a stop button 206 are installed on the upper right side of the display screen, and an alarm button 208 and a power button 207 are installed below the start button and the stop button to form a control mechanism 2.
[0032] In this design, the multi-station test box 3 comprises a rectangular housing 301. Several intelligent switch test stations 306 are located in the center of the front of the rectangular housing 301. Each intelligent switch test station has a station fuse station 303 above it. Below each intelligent switch test station is a strip-shaped hole 302, and below these holes is a live and neutral terminal interface 305. A voltage and current control box 303 is located on the left side of the top surface of the rectangular housing 301. The intelligent switch 4 to be tested is placed on the intelligent switch test station 306.
[0033] Install the intelligent switch 4 into the test power supply position (intelligent switch testing station 306), adjust the voltage regulator of the connected load cabinet to the rated voltage, rated current, and power factor, set up the real-time monitoring test software, adjust the monitoring parameters and rate, select the corresponding test function for the trigger module of the intelligent switch, set the operation function within the functional intelligent switch life tester, start the functional intelligent switch life tester, and perform the corresponding test on the product. During the test, the product's voltage, current, and product operation status can be detected in real time, and an alarm can be issued in a timely manner if any abnormality occurs during the test.
[0034] In this design, guide wheels 104 and adjustment feet 105 are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the load cabinet 1. The guide wheels 104 are convenient for movement, and the adjustment feet 105 are convenient for stabilizing the load cabinet.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, for the human body sensing and infrared sensing intelligent switch (human body sensing infrared detection mechanism 8), the intelligent switch is installed in the test box of the multifunctional intelligent switch life tester, and the load input is connected. The functional intelligent switch life tester simulates human body temperature through the heating element. The software can control the temperature of the induction heating module, the moving direction, moving stroke and moving speed of the module, and can completely simulate the normal movement sensing state of personnel, thereby triggering the intelligent switch to perform safety and reliability detection and verification.
[0038] like Figure 2As shown, for the light sensing switch (light sensing driven light source detection mechanism 9), the light sensing switch triggers the on and off of the product by controlling the brightness of the environment where the product is safely placed. The functional intelligent switch life testing machine can control the brightness value of the sensing module for the light intensity requirement, can control the brightness duration and cycle rate, and detect the product contact effect, voltage, current and other parameters, thereby triggering the intelligent switch to perform safety and reliability testing and verification.
[0039] Nowadays, there are more and more smart products, and their structures are becoming more and more complex. During the testing process, the test results are easily affected by uncertain factors of other components or equipment. Our company has developed a functional intelligent switch life tester to reduce the data deviation caused by the use of non-standard methods and equipment during the test process, which can meet the needs of various enterprises and laboratories.
[0040] The advantages of the present invention are as follows:
