Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of infrared communication of electric energy meters, and particularly relates to an infrared communication interface. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of infrared communication technology, after the intelligent electric energy meter of the State Grid is powered off, the data in the intelligent electric energy meter can be read by using an infrared handheld device. That is, during operation, the intelligent electric energy meter needs to turn on the infrared receiving circuit, wait for the infrared handheld device to send an infrared signal, and perform electric meter wake-up and data communication.

[0003] The existing infrared communication interface is opened and closed through an outer flip cover. After the flip cover is opened, it needs to occupy a certain space, and there is a risk of the flip cover falling off. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an infrared communication interface, which solves the problems that the existing infrared communication interface is opened and closed through an outer flip cover, and the flip cover needs to occupy a certain space after being opened and has a risk of falling off.

[0005] The utility model is realized as follows: An infrared communication interface for connecting and blocking infrared communication includes a mounting base, a cover body, and an adjusting structure disposed between the mounting base and the cover body. The mounting base is used for mounting a light guide column. The adjusting structure includes an adjusting member and an opening and closing member. A signal transmission channel for the light guide column is provided on the adjusting member. The opening and closing member is disposed in the channel and is in transmission connection with the adjusting member. The adjusting member is rotatable to drive the opening and closing member to open and close in the channel.

[0006] The infrared communication interface is detachably connected to the infrared head through the cover body. When infrared information needs to be transmitted, the information transmission channel of the guiding column is opened through the adjusting structure to complete information transmission. After the information transmission is completed, the information transmission channel is closed through the reverse action of the adjusting structure. In the prior art, in order to control information transmission, a housing that can block signal transmission is hinged outside the signal transmission channel, and the signal is connected and blocked by the flipping of the housing. When the housing is opened, a large space is occupied. The utility model provides an adjusting structure between the cover body and the mounting member for mounting the light guide column. The adjusting structure includes an adjusting member with a channel for signal transmission, and an opening and closing member is disposed in the channel. The opening and closing member opens and closes in the channel, thereby realizing the connection and blocking of signals. Since the opening and closing member opens and closes in the channel, the space occupation will not increase when the channel is opened, and there is no risk of falling off between the adjusting structure and the cover body and the mounting base.

[0007] A further technical solution of the utility model is that the adjusting member is annular, and one end of the opening and closing member is meshed with the inner side of the adjusting member.

[0008] The annular adjusting member is stable and not prone to displacement during the rotation between the mounting seat and the cover body. Through the rotation of the adjusting member, the opening and closing member engaged with the adjusting member rotates synchronously, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the infrared communication signal transmission channel by the opening and closing member.

[0009] A further technical solution of the utility model is that: there are two opening and closing members, the other ends of the opening and closing members are arc-shaped, and the other ends of the opening and closing members can be moved closer to or farther from each other to open and close the channel.

[0010] One end of the opening and closing piece is meshed with the adjusting piece to realize transmission, and the other end of the opening and closing piece is an arc-shaped structure. The ends of the two arc-shaped opening and closing pieces cooperate to completely cover the channel. When opening is required, the ends of the arc-shaped opening and closing pieces can be moved away from each other through the transmission of the adjusting piece to open the channel, and vice versa to close the channel. The two opening and closing pieces cooperate to open and close the channel, which has higher stability, and the angle at which the adjusting piece needs to rotate is easy to control. Compared with a single opening and closing piece, the two opening and closing pieces occupy less space when the channel is opened.

[0011] A further technical solution of the utility model is that: the adjusting member is provided with an adjusting button which passes through the cover body and can move along the cover body.

[0012] The adjusting button is located on the outside of the cover body, which is convenient for adjusting the rotation of the adjusting member.

[0013] A further technical solution of the utility model is that the adjusting button and the cover body are both provided with matched lead sealing holes.

[0014] Before opening, the lead seal wire passes through the lead seal hole, and the lead seal wire is destroyed after opening; the adjustment button and the cover body are both arranged on the outside of the electric energy meter, and it is relatively easy to remove the lead seal wire from the lead seal hole, which is convenient for operation.

[0015] A further technical solution of the utility model is: a metal piece for magnetically connecting with the infrared head is provided between the cover body and the adjustment structure, and a through hole for the light guide column to transmit signals is provided on the metal piece.

[0016] When signal transmission is required, the infrared head is connected to the cover body by magnetic attraction, which is convenient for disassembly and installation. Generally, the infrared head is a standard part and has a magnetic part inside. Metal parts and magnetic parts are installed between the cover body and the adjustment structure to ensure that the infrared head and the infrared communication interface are easy to disassemble and install.

[0017] A further technical solution of the utility model is that one end of the opening and closing member that is transmission-connected to the adjusting member is rotationally connected to the metal member.

[0018] The rotating connection of the opening and closing member is arranged close to the adjusting member. When the adjusting member rotates at a smaller angle, the end of the opening and closing member away from the adjusting member can move in a larger range, thus saving time and effort when opening and closing the channel.

[0019] A further technical solution of the present utility model is that: an opening for the light guide column to transmit signals is provided on the cover body.

[0020] From the mounting base to the adjusting structure and the housing, channels for the light guide column to transmit signals are provided, and the adjusting structure can close or open the channels.

[0021] Beneficial effects of the present utility model: An adjusting structure is provided between the cover body and the mounting member for mounting the light guide column. The adjusting structure includes an adjusting member, and a channel for signal transmission is provided on the adjusting member. An opening and closing member is provided in the channel, and the opening and closing member opens and closes in the channel, thereby realizing the connection and blocking of signals. Since the opening and closing member opens and closes in the channel, the space occupation will not be increased in the state where the channel is open. Description of the Drawings

[0029] Embodiment 1:

[0030] Figures 1-4 An infrared communication interface is shown, which is used to connect and block infrared communication. It includes a mounting base 2, a cover body 3, and an adjusting structure 1 disposed between the mounting base 2 and the cover body 3. The mounting base 2 is used to mount a light guide column 6. The adjusting structure 1 includes an adjusting member 11 and an opening / closing member 12. A signal transmission channel for the light guide column 6 is provided on the adjusting member 11. The opening / closing member 12 is disposed in the channel and is in transmission connection with the adjusting member 11. The adjusting member 11 can rotate to drive the opening / closing member 12 to open and close in the channel.

[0031] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 11 is annular, and one end of the opening / closing member 12 meshes with the inner side of the adjusting member 11.

[0032] The annular adjusting member is stable and not prone to displacement during the rotation between the mounting base and the cover body. By rotating the adjusting member, the opening / closing member meshing with the adjusting member rotates synchronously, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the channel for infrared communication signals by the opening / closing member.

[0033] In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the adjusting member is larger than the channel. When the opening / closing member moves within the annular adjusting member, the channel can be opened and closed.

[0034] In this embodiment, there are two opening / closing members 12. The other ends of the opening / closing members 12 are arc-shaped, and the other ends of the opening / closing members 12 can approach or move away from each other to open and close the channel.

[0035] One end of the opening and closing piece is meshed with the adjusting piece to realize transmission, and the other end of the opening and closing piece is an arc-shaped structure. The ends of the two arc-shaped opening and closing pieces cooperate to completely cover the channel. When opening is required, the ends of the arc-shaped opening and closing pieces can be moved away from each other through the transmission of the adjusting piece to open the channel, and vice versa to close the channel. The two opening and closing pieces cooperate to open and close the channel, which has higher stability, and the angle at which the adjusting piece needs to rotate is easy to control. Compared with a single opening and closing piece, the two opening and closing pieces occupy less space when the channel is opened.

[0036] In this embodiment, one end of the opening and closing member is engaged with the adjusting member and is rotatable, and the other end of the opening and closing member can open and close the channel.

[0037] In this embodiment, the two opening and closing members are centrally symmetrical. When the adjusting member rotates, the opening and closing members move closer to or farther from each other synchronously. Due to the central symmetry, the stability during adjustment is stronger, and when the channel is open, the space occupied by the two opening and closing members is smaller than that of a single opening and closing member.

[0038] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 11 is provided with an adjusting button 13 which passes through the cover body 3 and can move along the cover body 3 .

[0039] The adjusting button is located on the outside of the cover body, which is convenient for adjusting the rotation of the adjusting member.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cover body is provided with a slot for the adjusting button to pass through, and when the adjusting member needs to be rotated, the adjusting button can slide along the slot.

[0041] In this embodiment, the adjusting button 13 and the cover body 3 are both provided with matching lead sealing holes 4 .

[0042] Before opening, the lead seal wire passes through the lead seal hole, and the lead seal wire is destroyed after opening; the adjustment button and the cover body are both arranged on the outside of the electric energy meter, and it is relatively easy to remove the lead seal wire from the lead seal hole, which is convenient for operation.

[0043] In this embodiment, a metal piece 5 for magnetically connecting with the infrared head is provided between the cover body 3 and the adjustment structure 1 , and a through hole for the light guide 6 to transmit signals is provided on the metal piece 5 .

[0044] When signal transmission is required, the infrared head is connected to the cover body by magnetic attraction, which is convenient for disassembly and installation. Generally, the infrared head is a standard part and has a magnetic part inside. Metal parts and magnetic parts are installed between the cover body and the adjustment structure to ensure that the infrared head and the infrared communication interface are easy to disassemble and install.

[0045] In this embodiment, one end of the opening and closing member 12 that is transmission-connected to the adjusting member 11 is rotationally connected to the metal member 5 .

[0046] The rotation connection of the opening and closing member is arranged close to the adjusting member. When the adjusting member rotates by a small angle, the end of the opening and closing member far from the adjusting member can move within a large range, which saves time and effort when opening and closing the channel.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cover body 3 is provided with an opening for the light guide column 6 to transmit signals.

[0048] From the mounting seat to the adjusting structure and the housing, there are channels for the light guide column 6 to transmit signals, and the adjusting structure can close or open the channels.

[0049] The working principle of the present invention: The infrared communication interface is detachably connected to the infrared head through the cover body; when infrared information needs to be transmitted, the information transmission channel of the guide post is opened through the adjusting structure to complete the information transmission. After the information transmission is completed, the information transmission channel is closed by the reverse action of the adjusting structure; in the prior art, in order to control the information transmission, a housing that can block the signal transmission is hinged outside the signal transmission channel, and the signal is connected and blocked by the flipping of the housing. This method occupies a large space when the housing is opened; in the present invention, an adjusting structure is provided between the cover body and the mounting member for mounting the light guide column. The adjusting structure includes an adjusting member, and the adjusting member is provided with a channel for signal transmission. An opening and closing member is arranged in the channel, and the opening and closing member opens and closes in the channel, so as to realize the connection and blocking of the signal. Since the opening and closing member opens and closes in the channel, the space occupation will not be increased when the channel is in the open state.

[0050] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
