The technical solution of the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, a DC intelligent switch structure of the utility model includes a power supply module, a bus communication module, a processor module, a relay drive module U28 and a DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module.

[0026] The power supply module is electrically connected to the bus communication module, the processor module and the relay drive module U28 respectively, and the power supply module is used to convert the input DC voltage into a voltage level suitable for each module;

[0027] The bus communication module is electrically connected to the processor module and transmits data bidirectionally. The bus communication module is used to establish multiple intelligent control nodes.

[0028] The processor module is electrically connected to the relay drive module U28, and the processor module is used to process the signal sent by the bus communication module and control the on and off of the relay drive module U28;

[0029] The relay driving module U28 and the DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module are bidirectionally connected. The DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module is used to control the on and off of the relay U4 according to the signal of the relay driving module U28 and provide freewheeling protection for the relay U4.

[0030] The utility model establishes multiple nodes to connect to external intelligent control through a bus communication module. The bus communication module is CAN bus communication hardware, adopts a CAN bus driver of model TJA1050T, and has a built-in CAN bus protocol controller. As long as an external bus driver chip and an appropriate anti-interference circuit are connected, multiple CAN bus intelligent measurement and control nodes can be easily established. Then, this structure processes the data through the processor module, so that the relay drive module and the DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module can receive instructions from the central control unit or other external devices to achieve intelligent management. Not only accurate circuit design and efficient power management strategy, but also enables this structure to be quickly adjusted according to actual needs to achieve a higher level of intelligence and automation. The DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module also provides freewheeling protection for the relay to meet the high standard requirements of modern smart home and Internet of Things technology.

[0031] In one embodiment, the relay U4 includes a relay switch and a gate switch, and the DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module includes a resistor R5, a resistor R4 and a resistor R1 connected in series from the positive pole to the negative pole of the DC voltage, and the input pin 6 of the gate switch is connected between the resistor R4 and the resistor R1, and the resistor R4 and the resistor R1 are also connected to the base of the transistor Q1 through the resistor R42, the collector of the transistor Q1 is connected to the input pin 4 of the gate switch, and the collector of the transistor Q1 is also connected to the other positive pole of the DC voltage through the load U2, and the emitter of the transistor Q1 is respectively connected to the negative pole of the DC voltage and the output pin 3 of the gate switch, and a freewheeling diode D12 is also connected in parallel at both ends of the load U2. The DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module of the utility model ensures that both power supply and power failure can be carried out smoothly and effectively, avoiding possible electrical shocks to the equipment; adding a zero-crossing cut-off circuit to the DC freewheeling cut-off circuit module is mainly to cut off the power supply when the current is zero, reduce the loss of electrical equipment, extend the service life of the equipment, ensure switching at the safest point of the current waveform, thereby reducing arcs and voltage spikes caused by cutting off the power supply.

[0032] Relay U4 is a 20A relay device. DC+ and DC- are the DC power supply input voltages. The power supply voltage is divided by resistors R4, R5, and R1 and connected to pin 6 of relay U4, and connected to one end of resistor R42. After passing through resistor R42, it is connected to the base of transistor Q1 to realize the function of driving transistor Q1. Transistor Q1 is a high-power high-voltage transistor, which is used as a semiconductor freewheeling tube here; pin 3 of relay U4 is respectively connected to the emitter of transistor Q1 and the negative electrode DC- of the input voltage, and pin 4 is connected to the collector of transistor Q1, and then connected to one end of load U2. The other end of load U2 is connected to the positive electrode DC+ of the power supply to form a loop to drive the load; freewheeling diode D12 plays the role of freewheeling and protecting transistor Q1 and the load. Generally speaking, when the relay is turned on and off, the large current cannot be fully released. Therefore, due to the existence of transistor Q1, when the relay switch in relay U4 receives the signal control of the relay driver module U28 to turn on, the input pin 4 of the selection switch is connected with the output pin 3, and the relay is regarded as turned on. The base of transistor Q1 is at a high potential, and the collector and emitter are connected. At this time, since transistor Q1 is turned on first and the relay coil is closed later, the current will pass through transistor Q1 first. When the relay coil is fully closed, the current will pass through the relay. In this way, due to the buffering of transistor Q1, the Circuit; When the relay switch receives the signal from the relay driver module U28 to be controlled to be closed, the input pin 6 and the output pin 3 of the selection switch are connected to form a short circuit, and the base of the transistor Q1 is no longer at a high potential, and the collector and the emitter are open. At this time, the large current of the relay coil cannot be released immediately. When the relay coil is disconnected, since it is disconnected first and the transistor Q1 is opened at the back end, at the moment the relay is disconnected, the large current is released by the transistor Q1 for continuous flow until the transistor Q1 is completely disconnected, thereby realizing the function of completely cutting off the DC continuous flow, and well protecting the relay coil and load circuits.

[0033] Further, the relay driver module U28 is a relay driver chip of model UDN2981A. Pins 1 and 2 of the chip are respectively connected to the pins MCU_ON and MCU_OFF of the processor module, and MCU_ON and MCU_OFF are any two GPIO ports of the processor module, thereby realizing the function of the processor module controlling the relay driver module U28. In addition, the relay switch includes pin 5 and pins 1 and 2 electrically connected to pin 5, respectively, the voltage applied to pin 5 is 12V, pin 1 is electrically connected to pin 18 of the relay driver module, and pin 2 is electrically connected to pin 17 of the relay driver module. Pins 17 and 18 of the relay driver module U28 represent the ON and OFF of the relay U4 respectively, and are therefore electrically connected to pins 1 and 2 of the relay switch respectively. When ON is grounded and OFF is suspended with high impedance, pins 1 and 5 of the relay switch are turned on, and at the same time, the input pin 4 and output pin 3 of the above-mentioned selection switch are turned on, which is regarded as the relay being turned on; when ON is suspended with high impedance and OFF is grounded, pins 2 and 5 of the relay switch are turned on, and at the same time, the input pin 6 and output pin 3 of the above-mentioned selection switch are turned on, which is regarded as the relay being turned off.

[0034] In one embodiment, the power module is a full-bridge DC-DC isolated regulated power supply composed of a model NCS6S1205C and a model BEI 15-150-Q12. The NCS6S1205C output is a single power supply, and the BEI 15-150-Q12 output is two power supplies. The combination achieves the function of three-way output, which respectively corresponds to the bus communication module, the processor module and the relay drive module U28, and can adjust the input DC voltage to the applicable voltage level as needed. The processor module is a 32-bit processor of model STM32F103. The 32-bit processor provides powerful computing power and can handle complex algorithms and large amounts of data, so that it can seamlessly connect with the actuators of other connected modules.
