[0021] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] The present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. The following embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present utility model, but do not limit the present utility model in any form. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several changes and improvements can still be made. These all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] This embodiment provides an industrial wireless remote controller with an AMO (Auto Movement Off) function. As Figure 1 shown, it includes: a control part 10, a transmitter main board 20, a transmitting part 30, an antenna 40, and a battery assembly 50.

[0024] The control part 10 includes a wake-up element 11, a timing element 12, and a remote control operation element 13. The wake-up element 11, the timing element 12, and the remote control operation element 13 are respectively connected to the transmitter main board 20, and among them, the timing element 12 and the remote control operation element 13 are also connected.

[0025] Exemplarily, the wake-up element 11 adopts a physical button located on the side of the remote controller for easy access by the operator. The timing element 12 is a high-precision timer chip integrated on the transmitter main board and is used to record the time interval between the stop of the remote control operation element 13 (such as a rocker, a button, etc.) and the next operation. The remote control operation element 13 includes a plurality of function buttons and a rocker for inputting control instructions.

[0026] The transmitting part 30 includes an encoder 31 and a high-frequency module 32. The encoder 31 is respectively connected to the transmitter main board 20 and the high-frequency module 32, and the high-frequency module 32 is connected to the antenna 40.

[0027] Specifically, the transmitting part is composed of an encoder 31 and a high-frequency module 32. The encoder 31 receives the remote control instruction signal from the transmitter main board, performs encryption processing through a specific coding algorithm to ensure the security of signal transmission. The encrypted signal is sent to the high-frequency module, and the high-frequency module is responsible for modulating the signal onto a high-frequency carrier wave and transmitting it wirelessly through the antenna.

[0028] In this embodiment, the antenna 40 adopts a high-performance micro antenna to ensure stable signal transmission in a complex industrial environment. The antenna is fixed on the top of the remote controller, optimizing the radiation direction of the signal and improving the reliability and stability of signal reception.

[0029] The transmitter main board 20 is used to receive the timing signal output by the timing element 12, and this timing signal is timed according to the time from the stop of the operation element 13 to the next operation.

[0030] The transmitter mainboard 20 is the core control unit of the remote control, which is responsible for receiving and processing signals from the control part. An AMO function unit is provided on the transmitter mainboard 20, which automatically detects the idle state of the remote control through software algorithms or logic circuits. When the remote control is not used within a preset time (such as 10 minutes), the AMO function will automatically start and lock the remote control command sending function to prevent misoperation or unauthorized use.

[0031] The transmitter mainboard 20 is also used to receive the remote control command signal output by the operating element 13 , and determine whether to output the remote control command signal to the encoder 31 after comprehensive judgment in combination with the timing signal.

[0032] It should be noted that the transmitter mainboard can judge the signal by means of a logic circuit, which is not limited in this application. For example, when the transmitter mainboard transmits a command signal, the timer starts timing, and when the preset time is reached, the logic circuit receives a signal and stops the transmission of the remote control command signal.

[0033] The encoder 31 is used to receive the remote control command signal output by the transmitter mainboard 20, encode it, and transmit the encoded signal to the high frequency module 32;

[0034] The high frequency module 32 is used to transmit the high frequency signal carrying the remote control command through the antenna 40;

[0035] The awakening element 11 of the control part 10 is an element for the operator to actively cancel the AMO function and restore the remote control to normal operation. The transmitter mainboard 20 receives the signal output by the awakening element 11 and immediately cancels the AMO function.

[0036] For further information, see Figure 2 . In this embodiment, the activation duration of the AMO function of the industrial wireless remote control can be manually adjusted through the timing element 12. When the operator does not operate the transmitter or is in standby after this period of time, the output point of the secondary protection of the transmitter (i.e., the AMO function) will be triggered to achieve dormant protection, thereby ensuring safety issues caused by operators or non-operators intentionally or unintentionally touching the operating elements that control the movement, thereby reducing some foreseeable safety hazards. In addition, the awakening element 11 of the control part 10 allows the operator to actively cancel the AMO function and restore the remote control to normal operation. The transmitter mainboard 20 receives the signal output by the awakening element 11, and quickly cancels the AMO function.

[0037] In order to cope with complex interactive application scenarios, the remote control provided in this embodiment can be equipped with an optional display component. The display component uses a color touch screen, which can display the human-computer interaction interface and allow the operator to make various settings on the remote control, such as adjusting the time threshold of the AMO function and selecting the operation mode. At the same time, the touch screen interface is also part of the wake-up element, and the operator can release the AMO function by touching a specific area on the screen.

[0038] Furthermore, the industrial wireless remote control also includes a battery assembly 50 , which is connected to the transmitter mainboard 20 and is used to supply power to the transmitter mainboard 20 .

[0039] The battery assembly 50 provides power support for the remote control. It uses a rechargeable lithium battery and is equipped with a power indicator. The power indicator displays the remaining power in real time through an LED light or a display screen to remind the operator to charge in time. The battery assembly is connected to the transmitter mainboard through an interface to achieve a stable supply of power.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the industrial wireless remote control with AMO function provided by the utility model also includes a shell, which is made of high-strength engineering plastics or metal alloys and has good impact resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, ensuring long-term stable operation in harsh industrial environments.

[0041] The housing is designed to be waterproof and dustproof (such as IP65 or higher), and seals and fasteners are used to ensure that the internal components are not affected by the external environment.

[0042] The following is a further detailed description of the industrial wireless remote control with AMO function provided by this application in combination with the operation process:

[0043] The operator inputs control instructions through the remote control operating element.

[0044] The transmitter main board receives the command and determines whether it is in the AMO lock state.

[0045] If it is not locked, the transmitter mainboard sends the command to the encoder for encoding processing.

[0046] The encoded signal is transmitted through the high-frequency module and antenna.

[0047] If the remote control is not used within the preset time, the AMO function is automatically activated and the remote control command sending function is locked.

[0048] The operator can disable the AMO function through the wake-up element (physical button or touch screen interface) and restore normal control of the remote control.

[0049] Through the above embodiments, the industrial wireless remote controller with AMO function of the present invention realizes the automatic locking function in the idle state, effectively improves the safety and energy saving of the remote controller, and at the same time provides a flexible operation and setting interface, meeting the usage requirements in different industrial scenarios.
