[0055] The working principle of the embodiment is as follows:

[0056] 1. Power access and preliminary protection

[0057] The three-phase power (L1, L2, L3) is accessed into the controller through the input terminal 4, and is first connected to the input terminal of the motor protector 6. The motor protector 6 has protection functions such as overload, open phase, and short circuit, and can automatically cut off the circuit when detecting abnormal current or voltage conditions, thereby protecting the safe operation of the motor and the controller.

[0058] 2. Up control process:

[0059] When the up control button 31 is pressed, the coil A2 of the first AC contactor 7 is powered on, the first AC contactor 7 is closed, and the second AC contactor 8 is in an open state. At this time, the current is connected to the three-phase motor through the first AC contactor 7 and the output terminal 5. At this time, the connection path of the three-phase current is as follows:

[0060] L1 is connected to the U terminal of the three-phase motor through the first output terminal 71 of the first AC contactor, the first output terminal 51 in sequence. L2 is connected to the V terminal of the three-phase motor through the second output terminal 72 of the first AC contactor, the second output terminal 52 in sequence. L3 is connected to the W terminal of the three-phase motor through the third output terminal 73 of the first AC contactor, the third output terminal 53 in sequence.

[0061] At this time, the motor rotates in the forward direction, and drives the roller blind to rise.

[0062] 3. Down control process:

[0063] When the down control button 32 is pressed, the coil A2 of the second AC contactor 8 is powered on, the second AC contactor 8 is closed, and the first AC contactor is still in the open state 7. At this time, the current is connected to the three-phase motor through the second AC contactor 8 and the output terminal 5. At this time, the connection path of the three-phase current is as follows:

[0064] L1 is connected to the V terminal of the three-phase motor through the first output terminal 81 of the second AC contactor, the second output terminal 52 in sequence. L2 is connected to the U terminal of the three-phase motor through the second output terminal 82 of the second AC contactor, the first output terminal 51 in sequence. L3 is connected to the W terminal of the three-phase motor through the third output terminal 83 of the second AC contactor, the third output terminal 53 in sequence.

[0065] At this time, the motor rotates in the reverse direction, and drives the roller blind to descend.

[0066] 4. Limiting protection mechanism

[0067] In order to prevent the roller blind from being excessively raised or lowered to cause mechanical damage, the utility model sets the limiting power switch 93 on the limiting switch 9. When the external detection device detects that the roller blind is raised or lowered to the specified height, the external signal is input through the data transmission interface 11, the limiting power switch 93 resets the raising control button 31 and the lowering control button 32, the circuit is disconnected, and the three-phase motor stops working.

[0068] 5. Remote or automatic control

[0069] The data transmission interface 11 is connected to the distribution board 3 and is used for transmitting signals to the limiting switch 9 to complete automatic or remote control.

[0070] Through the specified programming or remote control mode, the automatic raising switch 91 and the automatic lowering switch 92 can be sent instructions through the data transmission interface 11, so that the automatic or timing roller blind and curtain operation is completed.
