[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. In addition, the descriptions of "preferred", "sub-preferred", etc. in the present invention are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "preferred" or "sub-preferred" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, a control linkage circuit for multiplexing communication and dry contact interfaces includes a multiplexing terminal 1 that can receive communication signals and dry contact signals, the output end of the multiplexing terminal 1 is connected with a dry contact signal detection circuit 2 for detecting whether the signal received by the multiplexing terminal 1 is a dry contact signal, a dry contact on-off driving circuit 3 for controlling the on-off of the dry contact, a communication circuit 4 for communicating with the multiplexing terminal 1, and a communication on-off driving circuit 5 for controlling the on-off of communication between the multiplexing terminal 1 and the communication circuit 4, the multiplexing circuit also includes a main control circuit 6 connected to the dry contact signal detection circuit 2, the dry contact on-off driving circuit 3, the communication circuit 4, and the communication on-off driving circuit 5, respectively, to control the dry contact on-off driving circuit 3 to connect the dry contact when the dry contact signal detection circuit 2 detects the dry contact signal, and to control the communication on-off driving circuit 5 to drive the communication circuit 4 to communicate when the dry contact signal detection circuit 2 does not detect the dry contact signal. Among them, the communication signal received by the multiplexing terminal 1 is a 485 communication signal; the dry contact signal received by the multiplexing terminal 1 is a voltage signal.

[0026] When in use, the 485 communication line is connected to the multiplexing terminal 1, and the multiplexing terminal 1 is the connection point of the dry node signal line. When there is a dry contact signal input to the dry node signal line, that is, a voltage signal input, at this time, after the dry node signal detection circuit 2 detects that the signal received by the multiplexing terminal 1 is a voltage signal, a dry contact detection signal is sent to the main control circuit 6. When the main control circuit 6 detects the dry contact signal, the dry contact on-off drive circuit 3 is controlled to work, so that the dry contact is connected to trigger other devices to act; when there is a communication signal input to the 485 communication line, at this time, the dry node signal detection circuit 2 does not detect that the multiplexing terminal 1 receives a voltage signal, and thus does not send a dry contact detection signal to the main control circuit 6. When the main control circuit 6 does not detect the dry contact signal, the communication on-off drive circuit 5 is controlled to work, so that the multiplexing terminal 1 is connected to the communication circuit 4 for communication.

When the multiplexing terminal 1 receives the dry contact signal, the detection chip U1 detects the voltage signal and sends the received dry contact detection signal to the main control circuit 6.

When the main control circuit 6 controls the dry node to be connected, the transistor Q2 is controlled to be turned on, so that the relay RY2 is powered on to close the controlled switch, so that the dry contact is connected to trigger the action of other devices.

[0029] like Figure 1As shown, the communication circuit 4 includes a communication chip U2, the communication chip U2 pins 1-4 are respectively connected to the main control circuit 6, the communication chip U2 pin 5 is grounded, the communication chip U2 pins 6-7 are connected to the communication on-off drive circuit 5, the communication chip U2 pin 8 is connected to the 5V power supply, and the communication chip U2 is an RS485 communication chip; the communication on-off drive circuit 5 includes a relay RY1 and a relay RY3, the relay RY1 pin 1 is connected to the collector of the transistor Q1, the base of the transistor Q1 is respectively connected to one end of the resistor R2 and one end of the resistor R1, the other end of the resistor R1 is connected to the main control circuit 6, the other end of the resistor R2 and the emitter of the transistor Q1 are respectively Ground, relay RY1 pin 2 is connected to 5V power supply, relay RY1 pin 3 is connected to pin 1 of connection terminal J1, and relay RY1 pin 4 is connected to communication circuit 4 through resistor R3; relay RY3 pin 1 is connected to 5V power supply, relay RY3 pin 2 is connected to transistor Q3 collector, transistor Q3 base is connected to one end of resistor R9 and one end of resistor R10 respectively, the other end of resistor R10 is connected to main control circuit 6, the other end of resistor R9 and transistor Q3 emitter are grounded respectively, relay RY3 pin 3 is connected to communication circuit 4 through resistor R8, and relay RY3 pin 4 is connected to pin 2 of connection terminal J1. When main controller 6 controls communication connection, it controls transistor Q1 and transistor Q3 to conduct respectively, thereby controlling relay RY1 and relay RY3 to close their respective controlled switches, so that the two 485 communication lines of connection terminal J1 are connected to communication chip U2 respectively.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the main control circuit 6 includes a single-chip microcomputer U3, the single-chip microcomputer U3 pin 1 is connected to a 5V power supply, the single-chip microcomputer U3 pin 2 and pin 4 are respectively connected to a communication on-off drive circuit 5, the single-chip microcomputer U3 pin 3 is connected to a dry contact on-off drive circuit 3, the single-chip microcomputer U3 pin 10 is connected to a dry node signal detection circuit 2, the single-chip microcomputer U3 pins 11-13 are respectively connected to a communication circuit 4, and the single-chip microcomputer U3 pin 14 is grounded. When the dry node signal detection circuit 2 detects a dry contact detection signal, the single-chip microcomputer U3 controls the dry contact on-off drive circuit 3 to work and connect the dry contact; when the dry node signal detection circuit 2 does not detect a dry contact detection signal, the single-chip microcomputer U3 controls the communication on-off drive circuit 5 to work so that the multiplexing terminal 1 is connected to the communication circuit 4 for communication.

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, the connection terminal J1 is the connection point of the dry contact. When a dry contact signal is connected, the detection signal is detected by the detection chip U1 and output through V_OUT. If there is a voltage signal at the dry contact, when the single-chip microcomputer U3 detects the detection signal output by V_OUT, the control relay RY2 is turned on. At this time, the dry contact is turned on to trigger other devices to achieve linkage; when the connection terminal J1 is connected to a 485 signal, there is no output at the V_OUT point. When the single-chip microcomputer U3 detects that there is no output at the V_OUT point, it is determined to be a 485 signal. When the single-chip microcomputer detects a 485 signal, the control relays RY1 and RY2 are turned on. At this time, the 485 communication lines A and B are connected to the communication chip U2 to communicate and exchange data.
