[0037] Embodiment

[0038] In this embodiment, a schematic three-dimensional structure diagram of the super-small single-phase rail-mounted energy meter as shown in Figure 1 is given. The super-small single-phase rail-mounted energy meter at least includes a base 100, a housing 200, a rail structure 300 provided at the bottom of the base 100, and a circuit board with a main control chip 400 installed on the base 100. Among them, as shown in Figure 2 , at least a storage module 410, a metering module 420, a power management module 430, an HPLC module 440, a Bluetooth module 450, and a microprocessor 460 are integrated inside the main control chip 400.

[0039] A power module 700 is provided on the circuit board. The power module 700 is connected to the power management module 430 of the main control chip 400. A circuit for providing electrical energy is provided between the power management module 430 and the storage module 410, the metering module 420, the HPLC module 440, the Bluetooth module 450, and the microprocessor 460 respectively.

[0040] A signal acquisition module 800 is provided on the circuit board. The signal acquisition module 800 is connected to the live wire to acquire current signals, and the signal acquisition module 800 is connected to the neutral wire by means of resistor voltage division to acquire voltage signals; a data transmission line is provided between the signal acquisition module 800 and the metering module 420 of the main control chip. The signal acquisition module 800 real-time acquires voltage and current signals on the live and neutral wires, and transmits the acquired voltage and current data to the metering module 420 of the main control chip 400 for analysis and processing.

[0041] A two-way integrated circuit is provided between the microprocessor 460 and the storage module 410 to ensure that the microprocessor 460 can store data information into the storage module 410 or retrieve corresponding data information from the storage module 410; a two-way integrated circuit is provided between the microprocessor 460 and the Bluetooth module 450 or the HPLC module 440 to ensure that the microprocessor 460 can transmit data to external devices or receive corresponding information from external devices through the Bluetooth module 450 or the HPLC module 440.

[0042] In this embodiment, the main control chip 400 integrates bandwidth carrier communication, Bluetooth communication, and single-phase metering into a high-performance and small-sized main control SoC. Without sacrificing the functions of the electric energy meter, the volume of the circuit board of the main control chip 400 is reduced, thereby reducing the overall volume and size of the entire electric energy meter, making the installation more convenient, not occupying too much space, and being able to be laid in a more dense and complex environment. Without reducing its usage functions, after expanding the functions, it still meets the smaller volume standard. The present utility model innovatively developed the main control chip 400 with the model number XL7501.

[0043] The main control chip 400 of the present utility model adopts the co-packaging form, which is a technology of packaging multiple chips or electronic modules with different functions together. It can achieve higher integration and smaller size, while improving the function density and speed of the chip. First, when co-packaging the storage module 410, metering module 420, power management module 430, HPLC module 440, Bluetooth module 450, and microprocessor 460 on the main control chip 400, a high-performance simulation algorithm is used to accurately characterize the multi-physical problems in the three-dimensional integrated packaging to optimize the design and ensure the high speed and low latency of the electrical connection.

[0044] Between the storage module 410, metering module 420, power management module 430, HPLC module 440, Bluetooth module 450, and microprocessor 460 of the present utility model, signal interference between different functional modules is isolated by setting a shielding layer or isolation belt, and the storage module 410, metering module 420, power management module 430, HPLC module 440, Bluetooth module 450, and microprocessor 460 adopt differential signals instead of single-ended signals to reduce signal interference between multiple functional modules.

[0045] The storage module 410, metering module 420, power management module 430, HPLC module 440, Bluetooth module 450, and microprocessor 460 of the present utility model dissipate heat from the main control chip 400 by using an efficient thermal interface material (TIM) and heat sink cover material. Specifically, there are certain gaps between each module after packaging and the main control chip 400, and these gaps are not conducive to the heat dissipation of each functional module on the main control chip 400. Therefore, it is necessary to use a thermal interface material (TIM) to fill these gaps to fully solve the heat dissipation problem.

[0046] Additionally, the present utility model has relatively high requirements for the process accuracy during the manufacturing process. As the chip size shrinks, the requirements for the accuracy of the packaging process become higher and higher. Especially during the chip pick-and-place process, it is necessary to precisely operate the tiny chips.

[0047] Specifically, the storage module 410 on the main control chip 400 is mainly used to store the power meter parameters and power consumption data. Among them, the power meter parameters include basic information such as the model, serial number, and version number of the meter, as well as various coefficients and parameters required for measuring and calculating electric energy. These parameters are the basis for the normal operation and accurate measurement of the power meter; the power consumption data refers to the power consumption situation of users, which includes real-time power consumption, cumulative power consumption, forward power, reverse power, etc. These data are of great significance for aspects such as user electricity bill settlement and power grid load analysis.

[0048] The metering module 420 on the main control chip 400 receives the current and voltage collected by the signal acquisition module 800, and combines with the preset electric energy calculation formula to accurately calculate the power consumption of electric energy in real time. This is the most basic and important function of the power meter. The dedicated single-phase metering can measure active power, reactive power, active energy, and reactive energy, and can simultaneously provide two independent active powers and effective values, voltage effective values, line frequencies, zero-crossing interrupts, etc., which can implement flexible anti-stealing electricity schemes and support full-digital gain, phase, and offset corrections. In the digital domain, the amplitude of the signal is adjusted by performing a multiplication operation on the signal. The gain correction coefficient can be determined through the calibration process and is usually a fixed digital factor. Phase correction is usually achieved through digital filters, such as finite impulse response (FIR) filters or infinite impulse response (IIR) filters. These filters can be designed to introduce a specific phase delay to compensate for the original phase shift. In the digital domain, offset correction can be achieved by subtracting a fixed offset from the signal. This offset can be determined through the calibration process and is usually the average value of the signal under no input or known zero input conditions.

[0049] The power management module 430 on the main control chip 400 regulates the power module 700 externally connected to the main control chip 400. Among them, the power module 700 at least includes a first power module 710, a second power module 720, and a third power module 730. The first power module 710, the second power module 720, and the third power module 730 are sequentially connected to the 220V AC zero and live wires of the household power transmission line, and convert the 220V AC voltage into voltages of different magnitudes through the first power module 710, the second power module 720, and the third power module 730 to supply power to the electric energy meter. Among them, the first power module 710 converts the 220V voltage into a 12V voltage. In this embodiment, the first power module 710 serves as a backup power supply and simultaneously transmits the 12V voltage to the second power module 720; the second power module 720 converts the 12V voltage into a 3.3V voltage and simultaneously transmits the 3.3V voltage to the third power module 730; the third power module 730 converts the 3.3V voltage into a 1.1V voltage. In this embodiment, the second power module 720 and the third power module 730 supply power to the components on the circuit board simultaneously.

[0050] The HPLC (High-speed Power Line Carrier) module on the main control chip 400 has high-speed data transmission capabilities and real-time communication capabilities. The HPLC module 440 uses the power line as a communication medium to achieve high-speed data transmission between the electric energy meter and a remote server or a data acquisition system. This transmission method not only improves the efficiency of data transmission but also reduces communication costs because there is no need to lay additional communication lines. The HPLC module 440 supports real-time communication, enabling the electric energy meter to upload electric energy data in real time, including parameters such as voltage, current, and power, providing strong support for the real-time monitoring and dispatching of the power grid.

[0051] The Bluetooth module 450 on the main control chip 400 enables the electric energy meter to perform wireless data transmission with devices such as a handheld meter reader, a concentrator, or a smartphone. Through Bluetooth connection, these devices can read the data in the electric meter to achieve wireless meter reading, thus avoiding the labor costs and time costs in the traditional wired meter reading method. The Bluetooth module 450 supports real-time communication, enabling the electric energy meter to upload electric energy data in real time, including parameters such as voltage, current, and power. This helps the power company to monitor and dispatch the power grid in real time, improving the operating efficiency and stability of the power grid. The Bluetooth module 450 adopts the BT 5.2+2.4GHz protocol (private protocol), meeting the relevant technical requirements for Bluetooth meter calibration and inspection of the State Grid and the Southern Grid.

[0052] The microprocessor 460 on the main control chip 400 is connected to the communication module 500. Among them, the communication module 500 uses 485 bus communication and has a 485 interface, which can access external devices to debug the electric energy meter. It is worth mentioning that the common communication rate of the 485 interface on the market is generally 9600bps, but the baud rate of the 485 interface connected to the main control chip 400 of the present utility model can reach 115200, greatly accelerating the communication rate.

[0053] The microprocessor 460 of the main control chip 400 is connected to the display panel 600. Among them, the display panel 600 uses an LED screen and can display data such as electric quantity, voltage, and current.

[0054] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shows a schematic three-dimensional assembly structure diagram of the ultra-small single-phase rail-mounted electric energy meter. Among them, a rail structure 300 is opened at the bottom of the base 100, and the rail structure 300 includes a rail groove 310, a rail hook 320, and a rail hook groove 330.

[0055] A wiring seat 110 and a circuit board support 120 are arranged on the top end surface of the base 100. The wiring seat 110 is used to install the wiring post 130, and the circuit board support 120 is used to install the circuit board with the main control chip 400. Preferably, in this embodiment, a wiring seat 110 is respectively arranged at both ends of the base 100, and each wiring seat 110 is provided with two installation slots for installing the wiring post 130, that is, a total of four wiring posts 130 are provided. Preferably, the circuit board supports 120 are also set to four and are distributed at the four corners between the two wiring seats 110. When the circuit board with the main control chip 400 is installed on the four circuit board supports 120, it is convenient to connect the main control chip 400 with the wiring posts 130 installed in the wiring seats 110 on both sides.

[0056] The housing 200 is buckled on the base 100 and encloses the wiring post 130, the main control chip 400, and other power modules 700, signal acquisition modules 800, and 485 communication modules 500 connected to the main control chip 400 inside it. A wiring socket 230 is arranged on the housing 200, which is convenient for external input and output lines to be connected to the internal wiring post 130.

[0057] A communication interface 240 is also arranged on one side of the housing 200. The communication interface 240 is internally connected to the communication module 500 connected to the main control chip 400, which is convenient for connecting to other external devices to debug the electric energy meter.

[0058] The top of the housing 200 is provided with a protruding panel mounting groove 250 for mounting the LED display panel 600, and the LED display panel 600 is also connected to the internal main control chip 400. On both sides of the panel mounting groove 250, there are a first fixing cover plate 210 and a second fixing cover plate 220 for covering the top end of the housing 200.

[0059] Benefiting from the advanced, compact and fully functional main control chip 400, this new embodiment realizes a smaller-sized power metering rail meter without sacrificing the functions of the electricity meter. While expanding more functions on the basis of the original technology, it makes the volume smaller, more compact and robust, with the size reaching 70×36×30 (mm), which is about 35% smaller than the existing smaller rail meters. This small volume is especially suitable for distribution boxes or cabinets with limited space. This is particularly important for densely wired scenarios, which can reduce mutual interference between devices and make the layout more tidy and orderly. The small volume not only provides convenience at the physical level, but also shows significant advantages in system design, maintenance management and environmental integration, promoting efficient and economical energy management practices.

[0060] Overall, the overall length of the ultra-small single-phase rail type electricity meter of this utility model is about 70 mm, the maximum height is about 30 mm, the heights on both sides are about 25 mm and 21 mm respectively, and the overall width is about 36 mm.

[0061] Due to the compact and small design of this utility model, they can save the installation space to the greatest extent. This is particularly important for application scenarios with limited space, such as ultra-small electrical control cabinets, compact devices or areas that require high-density installation. The small design of the rail meter enables them to flexibly adapt to different installation environments and configuration requirements. Users can select a suitable rail meter according to actual needs and expand and upgrade it to meet the changing application requirements.
