[0036] The following will refer to Figure 1-Figure 7 The overall structure and working principle of the electric window opener according to the preferred embodiment of the utility model are briefly described.

[0037] Figure 1 1 is a general schematic diagram of an electric window opener assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention mounted on a window. The electric window opener assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is suitable for being mounted on a window 100 and used to open and close the window. For example, the window 100 may be a skylight of a building. Figure 1 As shown, one end of the electric window opener 10 of the electric window opener assembly is mounted to the side frame 1011 of the window frame 101 through the window frame fixing member 103, and the other end is mounted to the window sash 102 through the window sash fixing member 104, so as to be able to drive the window sash 102 to rotate relative to the window frame 101 to open and close the window. The electric window opener assembly includes the electric window opener 10, the lead 20 extending from the electric window opener 10, the controller 40 and the connecting line (not shown) extending from the controller 40. The controller 40 can be in the form of a control box and embedded in the base frame 1012 of the window frame 102, and the electric window opener 10 and the controller 40 are electrically connected through a plug-in structure including a plug and a socket. The various components of the electric window opener assembly and their connection methods will be described in detail below.

[0038] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of an electric window opener and its lead wires, a controller and its connecting wires and signal control wires of an electric window opener assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the utility model, Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of an electric window opener and its leads of an electric window opener assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the connection line of the controller of the electric window opener assembly according to the preferred embodiment of the utility model.

[0039] like Figure 2As shown, the electric window opener 10 includes a lead 20 extending therefrom, and the controller 40 includes a docking line 30 extending therefrom. The lead 20 and the docking line 30 may each include a power line and / or a signal line, and the lead 20 and the docking line 30 may be connected by a plug-in structure to achieve an electrical connection between them. The electrical connection may include a power connection between the power lines of the lead and the docking line and a signal connection between the signal lines of the lead and the docking line. The specific configuration of the lead, the docking line and the plug-in structure will be described in detail below. The controller 40 may include a controller cover 45 that is integral or separate with the controller body 41 to cover the controller body 41 when the controller 40 is embedded in the window frame. The controller cover 45 may be sized to completely cover the controller body 41 when the controller 40 is embedded in the window frame, and may include a flange portion (not shown) disposed at both ends or around the controller cover 45, which may be inserted in a corresponding hole of the window frame so that the controller cover 45 is fixedly connected to the window frame. The flange portion may extend from the inner side surface (the surface facing the window frame) of the substantially flat cover body of the controller cover 45, thereby forming a stepped controller cover. In some examples, the flange portion may be configured to have a certain flexibility, thereby achieving snap-fit ​​engagement with a corresponding hole of the window frame. In some examples, the controller cover may be transparent or signal-permeable. By providing a controller cover having such a configuration, it is possible to conveniently inspect and / or observe the controller embedded in the window frame and to conveniently install the controller body and the controller cover.

[0040] See also Figure 3 The lead wire 20 of the electric window opener 10 includes an elastic spring wire section 21 and a plug 22 arranged at the end of the lead wire 20 away from the electric window opener. When the electric window opener 10 is running to drive the rotation of the window sash, the angle of the electric window opener relative to the window frame will change. In this case, the elasticity of the spring wire section 21 of the lead wire 20 allows the lead wire 20 to expand and contract as the angle of the electric window opener 10 changes, so as to avoid the risk of the lead wire 20 being broken due to excessive force and the risk of the lead wire 20 and the connecting wire 30 being unexpectedly disengaged due to excessive force at the plug-in structure, while also ensuring the beauty of the lead wire end. The plug 22 is suitable for being inserted into the socket of the connecting wire 30 described below to connect the lead wire and the connecting wire. The plug 22 can be a waterproof plug. See Figure 4, which shows the docking line 30 of the controller 40 separately. The docking line 30 may include a socket 31 disposed at one end of the docking line (i.e., the end away from the controller 40) for receiving the plug 22 of the lead 20. The socket 31 of the docking line 30 and the plug 22 of the lead 20 together form a plug structure, and the docking line and the lead, and thus the electric window opener and the controller can be electrically connected through the plug structure. When the electric window opener assembly is installed to the window, the socket 31 can be positioned on the surface of the side frame of the window frame. The docking line 30 may also include a connector 32 disposed at the other end of the docking line (i.e., the end connected to the controller 40) for connecting to the controller 40. The socket 31 of the docking line 30 may be a waterproof socket, whereby when the plug 22 of the lead is a waterproof plug, the plug structure is waterproof, so that the electric window opener assembly can also operate normally in rainy weather, for example.

[0041] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a controller and its power line, window opener control line and signal control line according to a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the signal control line of the controller according to the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 5 As shown, the controller 40 of the electric window opener assembly includes a controller body 41, a power line 42, a window opener control line 43 and a signal control line 44. The controller body 41 is electrically connected to a power source, such as an AC power source, via the power line 42 so as to be able to receive power from the power source. The window opener control line 43 of the controller 40 can be connected to the connector 32 of the connecting line 30, so that the controller body 41 can be connected to the electric window opener 10 via the window opener control line 43, the connecting line 30 and the lead 20, and the signal control line 44 is used to receive a control signal from the outside, so that the controller can be controlled by various manual systems (the manual system, for example, includes a remote control) or an intelligent system (the intelligent system, for example, includes a sensor). The controller body is configured to be able to convert the AC power from the power source into DC power, and supply the DC power to the electric window opener to provide power for the operation of the electric window opener. The controller body can also be configured to be able to transmit / send a signal to the electric window opener to control the operation of the electric window opener. For example, the controller body can control the operation of the electric window opener in response to receiving a signal sent by the operator through the remote controller, thereby realizing the remote control of the electric window opener by the operator.

[0042] See also Figure 6, which shows the signal control line 44 separately. The signal control line 44 may include an external mounting connector 441 disposed at one end of the signal control line (i.e., the end away from the controller body 41) and a connector 442 disposed at the other end of the signal control line 44 (i.e., the end connected to the controller body 41), and the connector 442 may be connected to the controller body 41 to transmit the received signal to the controller body 41. The external mounting connector 441 of the signal control line 44 may be implemented as a dry node control line, which may be used to receive an external control signal so that the controller may control the operation of the electric window opener based on the control signal. The electric window opener assembly may include a sensor, such as a rain sensor. The rain sensor may be configured to send a control signal to close the window to the controller body through the signal control line in response to sensing rain, and the controller body may send a signal to close the window to the electric window opener after receiving the control signal, so that the electric window opener closes the window in the case of rain. Thus, intelligent / automatic control of the electric window opener is achieved.

[0043] Figure 7 The figure shows the position where the power line and signal control line of the electric window opener assembly are led out of the window frame. Figure 7 As shown, the power line 42 of the controller 40 is led out of the window frame from an opening on the surface of the base frame of the window frame facing the interior, while the signal control line 44 is led out of the window frame into the wall from an opening on the surface of the base frame of the window frame facing the wall, and extends from the inside of the wall to the outside of the wall to receive external control signals.

[0044] Figure 8 is an overall schematic diagram of an electric window opener assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the utility model installed on a window, which shows the various components of the electric window opener assembly and their connection methods. Figure 8 The working principle of the electric window opener assembly according to the preferred embodiment of the utility model and the advantageous technical effects obtained are described.

The electric window opener can be configured to be arranged completely outside the window frame. The lead 20 of the electric window opener 10 extends from the electric window opener and is connected to the docking line by inserting the plug 22 of the lead 20 into the socket 31 of the docking line 30. The plug 22 forms a plug-in structure with the socket 31 to realize the electrical connection between the lead and the docking line. The lead 20 is arranged outside the window frame, and the docking line 30 is hidden inside the window frame. The cross section of the window frame can be L-shaped and can include three internal cavities separated from each other by a partition, and in particular, the docking line 30 can be hidden in the internal cavity of the three internal cavities of the window frame close to the inner wall of the window frame. The window frame constructed in this way can, for example, enhance its structural strength and insulation effect. At the same time, the connection line 30 (separately) is arranged in the innermost internal cavity, which can facilitate the connection line 30 to be connected to the lead 20 and advantageously separate the connection line 30 from possible other components in the window frame to avoid possible adverse mutual influences between the components. The connector 32 of the connection line is connected to the window opener control line 43 of the controller 40 to be connected to the controller body 41. The controller body 41 is connected to the power supply through the power line 42 and receives the control signal from the outside through the signal control line 44. The function of the electric window opener assembly according to the preferred embodiment of the utility model will be described below. The controller of the electric window opener assembly can convert the alternating current from the power supply into direct current and supply the direct current to the electric window opener to provide power for the operation of the electric window opener.
