Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] As attached Figures 1-5 As shown, the control node of the intelligent device integration platform involved in this utility model includes a shell 1, a core control board 2, several functional module control boards 3, several IO control boards 4, and ribbon cables (not shown).

[0024] The core control board 2, the functional module control board 3, and the IO control board 4 are housed inside the outer casing 1.

[0029] Appendix Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the functional module control board 3 and several IO control boards 4 are arranged on both sides of the core control board 2 to facilitate the connection between the functional module control board 3, the IO control boards 4 and the core control board 2.

[0030] The layered architecture of its core control board, functional module control board, and IO control board achieves high flexibility and scalability, enabling rapid customization and expansion of functional modules according to different scenarios to meet diverse industrial needs. The rich interface types (such as digital / analog I / O, Ethernet, fieldbus, etc.) and functional module units ensure seamless connection and efficient communication with various automation devices, enhancing the compatibility and versatility of the system. In addition, the modular layout facilitates installation, maintenance, and upgrades, reducing research and deployment costs and shortening project cycles, significantly improving the integration efficiency and adaptability of automation systems, especially for complex industrial environments requiring efficient and dynamic response automation systems.

[0031] To adapt to the size of the shell 1, the functional module control board 3 can be as shown in the double-layer PCB structure of the A functional module control board 31 in the attached Figure 2 、 3 .
