Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic ballasts, in particular to a combined universal electronic ballast. Background Art

[0002] Electronic ballast is a type of ballast, which refers to an electronic device that uses electronic technology to drive electric light sources to produce the required lighting. Electronic ballast uses semiconductor electronic components to convert DC or low-frequency AC voltage into high-frequency AC voltage to drive low-voltage gas discharge lamps and halogen tungsten lamps and other light sources as electronic control devices.

[0003] For example, Chinese utility model CN220228440U discloses an electronic ballast that is easy to install. Through the provided mounting piece and movable clip, the threaded rod rotates with the rotating plate, so that the connecting rod pushes the movable clip to move, and the movable clip is pressed to the outside of the mounting piece by a torsion spring, thereby fixing the mounting piece in the mounting seat, which is convenient for flexible installation and fixation of the electronic ballast housing; through the provided outer cover plate and pressing plate, the pressing plate can be pressed into the clip groove of the electronic ballast housing by tightening the torsion spring, and the pressing plate is pressed on the other two sides of the electronic ballast housing, so that the other two sides of the electronic ballast housing are stable, reducing the loosening of the electronic ballast housing.

[0004] However, the easy-to-install electronic ballast disclosed above still has the following technical problems during use: since the ballasts of lamps are not universal, taking the ballasts of fluorescent lamps and LED lamps as examples, it is necessary to carry two types of ballasts when the two are interchanged for maintenance. If the number of replacements is relatively large, it is relatively troublesome to use the above-mentioned installation method, and the input and output lines of the ballasts need to be reconnected during replacement, which brings inconvenience to maintenance. Summary of the invention

[0008] The ballast magnetic pole protrusion of the ballast module is magnetically inserted into the base magnetic pole recess of the base module; the ballast magnetic pole protrusion and the base magnetic pole recess are magnetically connected with opposite polarities, and at the same time, the ballast magnetic pole protrusion and the ballast magnetic pole recess have opposite polarities and can also attract each other with opposite polarities.

[0009] Preferably, insulation is provided between the base pole recess and the base module housing, and between the ballast pole protrusion and the ballast pole recess and the ballast module housing. The insulation can ensure the safety of the base module and the ballast module.

[0010] Preferably, the length of the exposed portion of the ballast magnetic pole protrusion, the depth of the ballast magnetic pole recess and the depth of the base magnetic pole recess are consistent.

[0011] Preferably, the overall width of the ballast pole protrusion is slightly larger than the overall width of the ballast pole recess and the base pole recess, so that the ballast pole protrusion has a certain damping feeling when inserted and also has the effect of preventing shaking.

[0012] Preferably, the ports of the base pole recess and the ballast pole recess are coated with an insulating layer, the width of the insulating layer is one quarter of the recess depth, and the provision of the insulating layer can prevent leakage at the port when the protrusion is connected to the recess.

[0013] Preferably, a plurality of the ballast modules are stacked on each other, and the ballast pole protrusions and the ballast pole recesses are magnetically plugged into each other, and the ballast pole protrusions are plugged into the ballast pole recesses, so that the plurality of ballast modules are connected, so that the plurality of ballast modules can be stacked for use;

[0014] The ballast magnetic pole protrusion of the outermost ballast module is inserted into the magnetic pole recess of the base.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0016] When the combined universal electronic ballast needs to replace and repair the ballast module (ballast), the staff can select a ballast module of appropriate power and complete the maintenance task efficiently and quickly by relying on the magnetic attraction of opposite charges. In addition, the input and output lines of the ballast do not need to be disassembled or reconnected during replacement, and can be directly connected through the convex and concave ports, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of replacement and maintenance work and bringing convenience and speed.
