[0002] The network remote intelligent control system is a system for intelligent management of gardens or smart agriculture based on a WIFI POT circuit. The system consists of an electrical control cabinet and a WeChat mini-program. Devices to be controlled can be connected as needed. For example, to control courtyard lighting facilities, courtyard watering facilities, fish pond aeration, etc., only the power cord of the traditional device needs to be connected to this device, and then remote control operations on the device can be realized in the mini-program.

[0003] The existing WIFI POT circuit still has the following obvious problems in design:

[0004] The communication method is relatively cumbersome, and the high-voltage circuit is prone to interfering with the communication stability;

[0005] The standby power consumption of the system based on the WIFI POT circuit is large, which is not conducive to popularization and use;

[0006] The use of wireless network communication is restricted by the distance. Sometimes, the mini-program on the mobile phone cannot reliably and stably operate to control the hardware.

[0007] Therefore, a WIFI POT circuit is needed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0008] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a WIFI POT circuit to solve the problems in the prior art that the communication method is relatively cumbersome, the high-voltage circuit is prone to interfering with the communication stability, and the standby power consumption of the system based on the WIFI POT circuit is large, which is not conducive to popularization and use.

[0009] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0010] A WIFI POT circuit includes an MCU control circuit, and the MCU control circuit includes a flow card module, an interactive interface communication module, a power reading circuit, and a power control circuit;

[0011] The flow card module includes a flow card interface unit with a built-in patch flow card.

[0012] In a possible design, the power reading circuit includes an IM1281B AC power acquisition module and an RS485 bus. The IM1281B AC power acquisition module and the RS485 bus are connected through TTL communication transmission. The interaction interface communication module and the IM1281B AC power acquisition module are connected for interactive transmission.

[0013] In a possible design, the power control circuit includes an IoT module, an I2C bus, a PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip, and a high-power magnetic latching relay driver. The IoT module and the PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip are connected for bidirectional communication transmission through the I2C bus. The PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip and the high-power magnetic latching relay driver are connected for interactive communication through an opto-isolation module for preventing high-voltage terminal interference. The IoT module and the RS485 bus are connected for communication transmission.

[0014] In a possible design, the interaction interface communication module includes a user input receiving unit for receiving user terminal instructions and a system timing specification receiving unit for receiving system timing specifications. Both the user input receiving unit and the system timing specification receiving unit are connected for communication transmission with the IM1281B AC power acquisition module.

[0015] In a possible design, the PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip is connected for communication transmission with multiple driving chips for control. The IoT module includes a judgment unit for judging power thresholds and communicating through the I2C bus and the PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip when the threshold exceeds the set value.

[0016] In a possible design, the I2C bus includes a data line and a clock line for completing data transmission and peripheral device expansion. The transmission rate of the 2C bus is 100Kpbs - 3.4Mpbs.

[0017] In this application, during the working process, the built-in patch flow card can provide 2G / 3G / 4G / 5G networks to realize the mutual interactive communication between this circuit and cloud data information, making the operation of the user terminal more stable and preventing the situation that this circuit cannot be operated due to communication problems caused by the distance. The user inputs control instructions or sets power thresholds through the interaction interface, and the instructions are transmitted to the MCU through the interaction interface communication module. The MCU sends acquisition instructions to the IM1281B AC power acquisition module through the RS485 bus, and receives and processes the returned power data.

[0018] The Internet of Things module receives the power data sent by the MCU through the I2C bus and compares it with a preset power threshold. When the power exceeds the threshold, the judgment unit of the Internet of Things module sends a control signal to the PCF8574T through the I2C bus, and the PCF8574T then controls the on-off state of the high-power magnetic latching relay through the opto-isolation module to achieve the on-off control of the load circuit. The Internet of Things module can also upload the power data to a remote server for further analysis and monitoring.

[0019] In the present utility model, the WIFIPOT circuit communicates remotely with the server through the Internet of Things module, and receives the operation instructions from the user's mobile phone and the timed job instructions from the server. After receiving the instructions, through I2C bus communication, the instructions are sent to the PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip, and then the action instructions are safely sent to the drive chip through opto-isolation, and finally the high-power magnetic latching relay connects or disconnects the working load.

[0020] In the present utility model, the power reading circuit of the WIFIPOT circuit collects power data through the IM1281B AC power acquisition module, and finally obtains it through the RS485 bus by the Internet of Things module. The Internet of Things module judges the threshold value. If it exceeds the threshold value, it sends an instruction to the PCF8574T I2C bus expansion chip through the I2C bus to finally drive the high-power magnetic latching relay to perform the turn-off action.

[0021] In the present utility model, the communication method is simple and efficient. The low-voltage circuit and the high-voltage circuit are isolated by opto-isolation to prevent interference from the high-voltage end. In addition, by using a high-power magnetic latching relay as the action element, it only consumes electric energy at the moment of action, greatly reducing the standby power consumption and heat generation of the system.
