Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of intelligent switches, and in particular relates to an intelligent switch actuator for lighting control. Background Art

[0002] In previous lighting systems, when indoor or outdoor lighting in places such as office buildings, hotels, airports, railway stations, and theaters requires multiple light sources, in order to meet the lighting brightness requirements of various places, each light source is switched on and off through the network, so a dedicated switch execution module device needs to be configured.

[0003] The traditional intelligent switch execution module device used in the field of intelligent lighting control system is usually more than 8P digits in structure (each P occupies 18mm); there are many relays on the processor, and each relay controls a different type of light source, and the output power is not the same. The heat emitted by these relays during operation is also different. These relays are in close contact, which leads to a large heat output for relays with large output power. The existing switch actuators usually dissipate heat by setting a small on-board heat sink inside and relying on air convection. When the heat generated by one of the relays increases, the heat in the entire switch actuator will increase, resulting in heat accumulation, causing the product to heat up and accelerate the aging of electronic components inside the shell, affecting the product life and reliability. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides an intelligent switch actuator for lighting control, which solves the problem that the increase in heat generated by one of the relays in the existing switch actuator will cause the heat inside the entire product to increase, causing the electronic components inside the shell to age, thereby affecting the product life and reliability.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions: an intelligent switch actuator for lighting control, comprising a shell and a plurality of relays, a control board and a dimming module installed in the shell, the dimming module is electrically connected to the plurality of relays through the control board, and the outer surfaces of the plurality of relays are provided with a heat conducting layer and a heat insulating layer in sequence, and a side wall of the heat conducting layer is in contact with the shell.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, a plurality of execution buttons and display lights are arranged on the front surface of the housing, and the execution buttons and display lights are arranged in two rows and installed in sequence, and the bottom ends of the execution buttons are in contact with the control panel.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, the shell is made of metal material.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, the surfaces on both opposite sides of the shell are wavy.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, a scene module is further provided in the housing, and the scene module is electrically connected to the control board.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, a storage module is further provided in the housing, the storage module is electrically connected to the scene module through the control board, and the storage module is used to store the lighting program set in the scene module.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: a heat-conducting layer is arranged on the outside of each relay to directly transfer the heat generated by the relay to the shell, and then the heat dissipation area of ​​each relay is increased through the shell, thereby reducing the heat accumulation inside the shell, and at the same time, a heat-insulating layer is arranged outside the heat-conducting layer to shield the heat generated by the relay, thereby further reducing the heat accumulation in the shell, reducing the aging of internal electronic components, and improving the service life and reliability of the product.

[0018] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention are described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0019] See also Figure 1-3The present embodiment provides an intelligent switch actuator for lighting control, including a housing 1 and a plurality of relays 2, a control board 3 and a dimming module 4 installed in the housing 1. During use, each bulb is connected to the relay 2 one by one, and the dimming module 4 adjusts the output power of each relay 2 according to the actual use situation through the control board 3, so as to complete the brightness adjustment of each bulb. Therefore, during use, the heat emitted by each relay 2 is not the same, and by arranging a heat conductive layer 5 on the outer surface of each relay 2, and making the heat conductive layer 5 abut against the housing 1, the heat dissipated by each relay 2 itself can be directly transferred to the housing 1 through the heat conductive layer 5 to complete the heat dissipation, and the heat dissipation is completed by the large-area contact between the housing 1 and the air. At the same time, in order to reduce the heat accumulation of the outer shell 1 and reduce the aging of electronic components in the outer shell 1, a thermal insulation layer 6 is further arranged outside the thermal conductive layer 5. The thermal insulation layer 6 is used to block the heat emitted by the relay 2 from being directly accumulated in the outer shell 1, so that the heat emitted by the relay 2 is directly blocked by the thermal insulation layer 6, and the heat emitted by the relay 2 will not be accumulated in the outer shell 1, but will be directly dissipated through the thermal conductive layer 5. At the same time, when the thermal conductive layer 5 and the thermal insulation layer 6 cover the outside of the relay 2, in order not to affect the normal use of the relay 2, avoidance holes are set on the thermal conductive layer 5 and the thermal insulation layer 6 according to the actual installation position of the relay 2 and the position of the wires.

[0020] In order to better control the brightness of each bulb through the dimming module 4, in this embodiment, a plurality of execution buttons 7 and display lights 8 are provided on the front surface of the housing 1. The execution buttons 7 and display lights 8 are arranged in two rows and correspond to each other one by one. The bottom end of the execution button 7 is abutted against the control panel 3. When adjusting the brightness of the bulb, the dimming module 4 is set by pressing the corresponding execution button 7, thereby completing the control of the brightness of the bulb.

[0021] In order to better dissipate the heat generated by the relay 2, in one embodiment, the housing 1 is made of metal material. Since the existing intelligent lighting switch actuator, the housing 1 is usually made of plastic, and the heat dissipation effect and reliability of plastic are poor, and the present application dissipates the heat of the relay 2 through the thermal conductive layer 5, therefore, at this time, the housing 1 made of plastic can no longer meet normal usage requirements. Therefore, by making the housing 1 of metal material, this not only improves the heat dissipation effect but also improves the durability of the product.

[0022] In order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the housing 1, in one embodiment, the surfaces on both sides of the housing 1 that abut against the heat-conducting layer 5 are both wavy. By setting the surface of the housing 1 to be wavy, the contact area between the housing 1 and the air is increased, so that the heat dissipated by the relay 2 can be dissipated faster through the housing 1 by the heat-conducting layer 5, thereby reducing the accumulation of heat in the housing 1 and reducing the aging degree of electronic components in the housing 1.

[0023] In the existing lighting system, different scenes require different lighting intensities, triggering times and lighting times. Therefore, in order to better set different lighting requirements according to different usage scenarios, in one embodiment, a scene module is also provided in the housing 1. The scene module is electrically connected to the control board 3. The intensity and lighting time of different light sources are set through the scene module, so that users can be more comfortable during use. At the same time, users can also control the preset light source intensity through the dimming module 4 to make it more in line with the user's personalized needs.

[0024] After the user has personalized the light source for each scene, in order to reduce the need to re-set each time it is used, in one embodiment, a storage module is further provided in the housing 1. The storage module is electrically connected to the scene module through the control board 3. The lighting program set in the scene module is stored in the storage module so that the next use can be the same as the previous setting, thereby avoiding repeated settings.

[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technical personnel in this field can make some changes or modify the technical contents disclosed above into equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any brief modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
