[0035] Please see Figures 1-6 The modular controller of this utility model includes a core module 1, a fixed function module 2 and a splicing function module 3. The core module 1 includes a shell, and the processor, memory, storage and several connectors are installed inside the shell via a circuit board. The shell has mounting holes for the corresponding connectors.

[0036] Both the fixed function module 2 and the splicing function module 3 include a circuit board module 4 and a multi-port module 5. The circuit board module 4 includes a functional circuit board 41, a connector plug 42 and a connector socket 43. The connector plug 42 and the connector socket 43 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the functional circuit board 41.

[0037] The fixed functional module 2 is fixedly connected to the core module 1, and the splicing functional module 3 can be detachably connected to the fixed functional module 2 or another splicing functional module 3.

[0038] Both the fixed function module 2 and the splicing function module 3 include a plug-in shell a1 and a mating shell a2, with the connecting socket 43 facing the top of the plug-in shell a1.

[0039] The edge of the docking shell a2 is equipped with an installation rail a21, and the edge of the insertion shell a1 is provided with a docking groove a13 corresponding to the installation rail a21.

[0040] The top of the mating shell a2 is provided with a fitting part a22 along the mounting rail a21. The mating shell a2 is provided with a through hole a23 for exposing the connection socket 43. The fitting part a22 is provided with a guide groove a24 for guiding the connection plug 42 along the mating groove a13.

[0041] The docking shell a2 of the fixed functional module 2 adopts a bottomless design, and the side wall a11 of the docking shell a2 is a part of the outer shell of the core module 1.

[0042] The docking shell a2 of the splicing function module 3 includes a side wall a11 and a bottom plate a12. The bottom plate a12 of the docking shell a2 has an upwardly protruding fitting groove a14 along the mounting rail a21. The connecting plug 42 protrudes from the inner wall of the fitting groove a14, and the bottom of the docking shell a2 is flush.

[0043] Both the fixed function module 2 and the splicing function module 3 have an L-shaped mounting groove 6 on the front for installing the multi-port module 5. The side wall a11 of the L-shaped mounting groove 6 has a slot 61, and the other end of the L-shaped mounting groove 6 has a limiting protrusion 62.

[0044] One side of the multi-port module 5 is provided with a limiting buckle 51 for engaging with the limiting protrusion 62, and the other side is provided with an elastic buckle 52 adapted to the card slot 61.

[0045] The functional circuit board 41 is provided with several connection plates 44 for the display screen of the multi-port module 5.

[0047] It also includes a cover plate 7 that is adapted to the docking shell a2.

[0048] When using this utility model:

[0049] Because the docking shell a2 in the fixed function module 2 is partially composed of the outer shell of the core module 1, the fixed function module 2 and the core module 1 are designed as an integrated unit, and it has both a certain input port and a certain output port.

[0050] Since both the fixed function module 2 and the splicing function module 3 have a connecting plug 42 and a connecting socket 43 on their functional circuit boards 41, and the splicing function module 3's plug shell a1 can fit onto the fixed function module 2 and the docking shell a2 of another splicing function module 3, different functional circuit boards 41 can be electrically connected through the connecting plug 42 and the connecting socket 43. In other words, the signal in the core module 1 can be transmitted to the splicing function module 3. Thus, the controller can effectively install multiple output ports according to requirements by splicing the splicing function module 3 with the fixed function module 2, in conjunction with the setting of the connecting plug 42 and the connecting socket 43, thereby increasing the practicality of the controller.

[0051] Furthermore, since both the splicing function module 3 and the fixed function module 2 contain a circuit board module 4 and a multi-port module 5, and the multi-port module 5 can be quickly spliced ​​with the connecting board 44 on the function circuit board 41, this device can not only change the number of output ports by adding the splicing function module 3, but also adapt to different output ports by replacing the multi-port module 5 without changing the circuit board module 4.

[0052] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art.
