[0002] The drive structure of some electrical products such as Figure 1 As shown, the input and output wires inside the driver are led out in the same direction and are closely spaced. When installing the driver, the input and output wires need to be connected to the AC and DC terminals of the electrical product respectively. Since the input and output wires of this type of driver are led out in the same direction and are closely spaced, you need to pay special attention to the colors of the wires when wiring to prevent incorrect connections. Wrong wiring may occur where the input wire is connected to the DC terminal and the output wire is connected to the AC terminal, or even where the input and output wires are connected to the AC and DC terminals alternately. These wrong wiring situations will cause the driver to malfunction and may even cause the driver to burn out, posing a safety hazard. Currently, such products rely on manuals and wire color to indicate wiring instructions, but this can only serve as a visual prompt and still requires judgment, and cannot provide substantial fool-proofing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Figures 2 to 7 An embodiment of the present invention provides a driver with wire isolation functionality, comprising a housing 100 and a separator 200 connected to the housing 100. The separator 200 is positioned between two adjacent groups of wires on the housing 100 to separate the two adjacent groups of wires. The driver is provided with separator 200 on the housing 100. Separator 200 separates input wires 300 from output wires 400, keeping each wire within its corresponding area and preventing interference. This prevents users from misconnecting wires, ensures proper operation of the driver, reduces safety risks, and provides high and low voltage isolation.
[0027] The wires referred to in this utility model include, but are not limited to, input wires 300, output wires 400, dimming wires, and NFC wires. A group of wires can be a single wire or multiple wires extending from the same wire outlet 120. For example, in this embodiment, the driver housing 100 is provided with two wire outlets 120, one of which leads to a group of input wires 300, and the other of which leads to a group of output wires 400. The number of separators 200 can be one or more. When multiple groups of wires are extended from the driver, a separator 200 can be placed between each adjacent group of wires.
[0028] Furthermore, the width of the separator 200 is equal to the width or length of the driver cover 110, which can achieve complete isolation between the two groups of wires. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The separator 200 includes a plurality of separator units 210 connected in sequence along the vertical direction. A separating groove 220 is provided between each two adjacent separator units 210. During actual installation and use, the separator 200 can be broken along the separating groove 220 according to the size requirements of the electrical installation box. The separator 200 is made of a brittle material, and the thickness of the material at the separating groove 220 is less than the thickness of the material in other areas of the separator 200. When in use, the separator 200 can be broken by hand without the need for scissors or other tools, which is convenient for operation. Furthermore, referring to Figure 4 The end of the separating groove 220 has a separating notch 221 , and the separating notch 221 has a separating slope to provide a guide for the user to break off the separating piece 200 .
[0029] Further, refer to Figure 5 The top of the housing 100 is provided with a positioning block 130, which has a positioning slot 140 defined therein. The bottom of the separator 200 is positioned and inserted into the positioning slot 140, thereby firmly assembling the separator 200 and the housing 100. The separator 200 is not easily separated from the driver housing 100, allowing it to be shipped as a complete unit with the driver product and facilitating subsequent installation and use. Furthermore, the positioning block 130 includes a first retaining wall 131 and a second retaining wall 132, and the positioning slot 140 includes a first positioning slot 141, which is located between the first retaining wall 131 and the second retaining wall 132.
[0030] Furthermore, two positioning blocks 130 are provided, and the bottom ends of the separator 200 are respectively positioned and inserted into the positioning slots 140 of the two positioning blocks 130; the positioning block 130 also includes a third retaining wall 133, and the positioning slot 140 also includes a second positioning slot 142, and the second positioning slot 142 is located between the first retaining wall 131 and the third retaining wall 133 and / or between the second retaining wall 132 and the third retaining wall 133; the bottom side of the separator 200 is provided with a positioning support foot 230, and the bottom of the separator 200 is positioned and inserted into the first positioning slot 141, and the positioning support foot 230 is positioned and inserted into the second positioning slot 142. The positioning cooperation between the bottom structure of the separator 200 and the first positioning slot 141, and the positioning cooperation between the positioning support foot 230 and the second positioning slot 142, can achieve positioning cooperation between the separator 200 and the driver housing 100 from two directions, thereby further improving the assembly firmness and stability between the separator 200 and the driver housing 100. Furthermore, the bottom of the separator 200 is provided with an auxiliary support foot 240, which is located between the two positioning support feet 230, and the bottom of the auxiliary support foot 240 is supported and connected to the top surface of the housing 100. The positioning support feet 230 and the auxiliary support feet 240 are distributed along the width of the separator 200, and each support foot extends along the thickness of the separator 200. This further improves the installation stability of the separator 200, ensuring that the separator 200 can be stably supported on the driver housing 100. When the separator 200 is broken, the separator 200 will not tilt. Furthermore, the three support feet are all in a trapezoidal shape, with a smaller top and a larger bottom, to improve support strength.
[0031] Further, refer to Figures 4 to 7 The third retaining wall 133 is provided with a positioning hole 1331. The side of the positioning support foot 230 is provided with a positioning protrusion 231. The positioning protrusion 231 is positioned and snapped into the positioning hole 1331, thereby improving the installation stability of the separator 200 through positioning in multiple directions. Furthermore, the outer end surface of the positioning protrusion 231 is inclined inward from top to bottom. On the one hand, when the separator 200 is installed, the positioning protrusion 231 can be smoothly snapped into the positioning hole 1331. On the other hand, the positioning protrusion 231 is not easy to remove from the positioning hole 1331 after being snapped into the positioning hole 1331. This is because the separator 200 rarely needs to be removed after installation. This structure helps to firmly install the separator 200 on the drive cover 110 and prevent it from falling off easily.
[0032] Furthermore, the separator 200 of the present invention can be installed in a product type where the wires are led out from the upper cover 110 of the driver, for example Figures 2 to 7 The separator 200 of the present invention can also be installed on the type of product that leads the wires from the side of the driver, such as Figure 8In the product shown, the separator 200 is mounted on the side of the driver. However, whether it is mounted on the upper cover 110 of the driver or on the side of the driver, it belongs to the case 100 of the driver as described in the present application.
[0033] Reference Figure 9 The embodiment of the present invention further provides an electrical product, including the above-mentioned driver with wire isolation function, which at least has all the beneficial effects that can be brought by the above-mentioned driver with wire isolation function. Further, the electrical product can be an electrical junction box 500 or a lighting fixture, for example Figure 9 When the driver is installed in the electrical junction box 500, the separator 200 forms multiple separate wiring compartments within the electrical junction box 500. For example, if the wires leading out of the driver are input wires 300 and output wires 400, the separator 200 will separate the wiring compartments within the electrical junction box 500: one for the input wires 300 and the other for the output wires 400. This prevents users from connecting the wrong wires and improves safety and reliability. During use, one or more of the separators 210 on the separator 200 can be broken off to match the height of the electrical junction box 500 to different electrical products.
