Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of controllers, in particular to a protective component of a light-controlled controller. Background Art

[0002] A light controller is a device used to automatically manage lighting systems. It detects ambient light levels and intelligently switches lighting fixtures on and off. These devices are widely used in various applications, including street lighting, landscape lighting, and energy-efficient lighting systems for residential and commercial buildings. They typically utilize a photoresistor or photoelectric sensor, effectively turning lights off when light is sufficient and on when light is insufficient, thereby achieving energy savings.

[0003] Light-controlled controllers are typically designed with multiple terminals for connecting to the power supply and lamp leads. These terminals allow the lamp's wires to be secured to the controller, completing the circuit and controlling the light's operating state. However, in practice, these terminal designs are often simplistic and lack effective anti-disconnection mechanisms, leading to the following issues:

[0004] When a lamp's wires are subjected to stress from external influences such as pulling, wind, or human contact, the connection between the wires and the terminal blocks may become loose or completely detach. This not only affects the normal operation of the lamp, such as sudden extinguishing or flickering, but can also pose more serious safety hazards such as short circuits or circuit damage. This problem, especially in outdoor or public places, can cause great inconvenience and maintenance difficulties. Therefore, we have proposed a protective component for the light control controller.

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0031] The protective assembly of the light control controller includes a light control body 1. The top of the front side of the light control body 1 is provided with an L-shaped mounting opening 10. The L-shaped mounting opening 10 is provided with a terminal 2. The bottom of the front side of the light control body 1 is provided with a fixed protrusion 4, which provides a mounting base for a clamping assembly 5. The front side of the top of the fixed protrusion 4 is provided with a clamping assembly 5 for fixing the wires and preventing them from falling off when subjected to force.

[0032] The clamping assembly 5 includes a strip-shaped base plate 50. The top of the strip-shaped base plate 50 is provided with a plurality of arc-shaped grooves 500 arranged equidistantly from side to side to ensure that the wires can be securely placed. A curved rubber protrusion 501 is provided in the middle of the concave surface of the arc-shaped groove 500. This causes the wires to form an arc within the arc-shaped groove 500, preventing the wires from being straight, thereby increasing friction and effectively preventing the wires from slipping out of the clamping assembly 5.

[0033] A detachable strip top plate 52 is provided on the top of the strip bottom plate 50, and a plurality of U-shaped blocks 520 are arranged equidistantly on the left and right sides. Each U-shaped block 520 is connected to a pressure regulating piece 53, and the pressure regulating piece 53 includes a threaded rod 530 threadedly connected to the top of the U-shaped block 520. The bottom end of the threaded rod 530 passes through the top of the U-shaped block 520 and is rotatably connected to a clamping block 531. An avoidance groove 5310 for avoiding the arc-shaped rubber protrusion 501 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the clamping block 531. The threaded rod 530 drives the clamping block 531 to move up and down. When the clamping block 531 moves downward and compresses the wire, the arc-shaped rubber protrusion 501 is located in the avoidance groove 5310, and the arc-shaped rubber protrusion 501 lifts a part of the wire into an arc shape, thereby increasing friction and improving the clamping effect.

[0034] In this embodiment, mounting wings 12 are provided at the bottom of the left and right sides of the light controller body 1 for fixing the entire light controller on the mounting surface. L-shaped clamping blocks 11 are provided at the top of the light controller body 1 and on the left and right sides of the L-shaped mounting opening 10. A protective top plate 3 is provided between the two L-shaped clamping blocks 11. The protective top plate 3 is located on the top of the wiring terminal 2 to reduce the influence of external factors on the wiring part.

[0035] Specifically, limiting side panels 40 are provided at the top of the fixed convex plate 4 and at the left and right ends of the front side, the strip bottom plate 50 is located between the two limiting side panels 40, and the bottom of the strip bottom plate 50 is bonded to the top of the fixed convex plate 4, so that the position of the strip bottom plate 50 is fixed.

[0036] Furthermore, mounting holes 521 are provided at the top of the strip top plate 52 and near the left and right ends. Bolts 54 are connected in the mounting holes 521 . The bolts 54 are threadedly connected to the top of the strip bottom plate 50 to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the strip top plate 52 .

[0037] Furthermore, a cross-shaped recessed knob 532 is provided at the top of the threaded rod 530 to facilitate the staff to tighten the threaded rod 530.

[0038] Furthermore, the bottom of the pressing block 531 is a curved surface structure. The pressing block 531 is located directly above the arc-shaped groove 500. The concave surface of the arc-shaped groove 500 is provided with a curved rubber pad 51 to increase friction.

[0039] Furthermore, stabilizing bars 533 are provided on the tops of the left and right sides of the pressing block 531 . The side of the stabilizing bar 533 away from the pressing block 531 fits against the inner wall of the U-shaped block 520 , ensuring that the pressing block 531 can move stably up and down.

[0040] When using the protective assembly of the light control controller of this embodiment, prepare the necessary tools such as a screwdriver to tighten the bolt 54 and the threaded rod 530. When installing the light controller body 1, fix it on the appropriate mounting surface to ensure that it is firm and not easy to move, and use the holes of the mounting wing 12 to fix it with appropriate fasteners. Then, pass the wires of the lighting system through the arc groove 500 and the pressing block 531 and connect them to the terminal 2, ensuring that the connection between the wires and the terminal is firm. Afterwards, control the pressing force through the pressure regulating piece 53, and rotate the screw at the top of the threaded rod 530. The cross-shaped groove knob 532 causes the threaded rod 530 to move downward in the U-shaped block 520, thereby driving the clamping block 531 to gradually approach the wire, ensuring that the arc surface structure of the clamping block 531 is aligned with the wire, and appropriately adjusting the clamping force to ensure the stability of the wire, so that the wire forms an arc through the arc-shaped rubber protrusion 501 to increase friction. After confirming the installation, the protective top plate 3 is fixed to the top of the terminal 2 through the L-shaped clamping block 11. In this way, the protective components of the light control controller can be effectively utilized to ensure its effective operation in complex environments and improve the reliability and life of the lighting control system.
