Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of relay technology, specifically a relay board assembly adapted to the marine atmospheric environment. Background Technology
[0002] Modern ships require electrical systems to achieve automation and remote operation control. Relays are essential for these functions. Currently, most relays are plastic-cased. They are installed by attaching a mounting base and then clipping them onto a standard DIN rail.
[0003] However, ships operate under marine atmospheric conditions for extended periods, where the working environment is humid and contains salt spray, mold, and other contaminants, making it impossible to guarantee the lifespan of ordinary relays. Furthermore, ships experience harsh conditions such as turbulence, impacts, and vibrations during navigation. Rail-mounted relays are prone to detachment. To address these issues, a relay board assembly adapted to the marine atmospheric environment was designed. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a relay board assembly adapted to the marine atmospheric environment, solving the problem that existing ordinary relays cannot guarantee their service life. Furthermore, ships experience harsh conditions such as turbulence, impacts, and vibrations during navigation. This also addresses the technical problem of rail-mounted relays being prone to detachment.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a relay board assembly adapted to the marine atmospheric environment, comprising a PCB board, wherein a pair of four-connector plugs are installed on the upper wall of the PCB board, eight pairs of fully sealed relays are installed on the upper wall of the PCB board near the pair of four-connector plugs, four pairs of eight-connector plugs are installed on the upper wall of the PCB board and the four pairs of eight-connector plugs are respectively located on the upper wall of the PCB board near the two side walls, and a number of diodes, a number of LEDs and a number of surface mount resistors are respectively installed on the upper wall of the PCB board near the position between the fully sealed relays and the eight-connector plugs.
[0006] Preferably, several of the LEDs and surface mount resistors are sequentially and alternately mounted on the wall surface of the PCB board.
[0007] Preferably, the PCB board has a double-layer circuit printing.
[0008] Preferably, the four-connector plug-in is the input interface of the drive circuit, one side of the eight-connector plug-in is the drive signal input interface of the DC diode and the four-connector plug-in, and the other side of the eight-connector plug-in is the load output interface.
[0009] Preferably, the eight connectors have textual indications at corresponding positions to prevent mis-insertion. Beneficial effects
[0010] This invention provides a relay board assembly adapted to marine atmospheric environments. The assembly integrates electrical components onto a self-designed relay board. Fully sealed relays are soldered onto the board, with two sets of normally open and two sets of normally closed contacts to meet the needs of most operating conditions. Each relay's input terminal has an LED indicator to show its operating status. Each LED is connected in series with a surface-mount resistor for overvoltage protection to prevent LED burnout. The output terminals of each relay on the board are reverse-soldered diodes to protect the relays from burnout by induced current from inductive loads. Attached Figure Description
