Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dimming module technology, and in particular to a quick-release modular intelligent dimming switch. Background Technology
[0002] The intelligent dimming module is the core component for controlling the brightness of lights. It is usually hidden in the power distribution box or lighting control system. It can receive signals from mobile phones, remote controls, etc., and accurately adjust the brightness of lights. It is compatible with various lamps such as LED and incandescent lamps, supports connection to Wi-Fi or smart gateways, and can set the brightness mode through the APP. When the smart dimming module is installed onto the mounting bracket using the rear fasteners, a certain gap exists between the fasteners and the bracket, causing the module to wobble after installation. This can lead to misalignment of terminals during wiring when installing subsequent smart dimming modules or other devices onto the same bracket, increasing the risk of incorrect wiring. Furthermore, since existing fasteners and mounting brackets are often located between two housings without a replacement interface, the smart dimming module housing must be disassembled to replace a damaged fastener, complicating the replacement process. Additionally, directly replacing the smart dimming module would require replacing the entire working module, wasting money and increasing electronic waste. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a quick-release modular intelligent dimming switch, which can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A quick-release modular smart dimming switch includes a protective housing. Multiple terminals are fixedly installed on the lower front side of the protective housing. A reset button is movably installed on the front side of the protective housing above the terminals. Multiple indicator lights are fixedly installed on the protective housing above the reset button. The reset button and indicator lights are electrically connected to a main control module inside the protective housing via a circuit board. A mounting slot is provided on the rear side of the protective housing. A mounting groove is provided at the bottom of the mounting slot. A limit block is fixedly installed in the mounting groove. A top plate is movably installed in the mounting groove located in front of the limit block. A damping plate is movably installed on the front side of the top plate.
[0005] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, positioning grooves are provided on both sides of the mounting groove. The longitudinal cross-section of the positioning groove is L-shaped, and multiple slots are provided on the inner side of the positioning groove. The positioning grooves provided on both sides of the mounting groove can provide the conditions for positioning and installation of the limiting block, while the slots can limit the limiting block to be confined within the mounting groove.
[0006] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting block has an L-shaped structure, and positioning blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting block. The longitudinal section of the positioning block is the same as that of the slot. Multiple protrusions are fixedly installed on one side of the positioning block, and the positions of the protrusions correspond to the slots inside the positioning slots. The limiting block is inserted into the mounting slot, and the positioning block is inserted into the corresponding positioning slot. The protrusions are engaged in the corresponding slots. By setting a detachable limiting block in the mounting slot, it is convenient to replace the entire top plate in case of damage during operation.
[0007] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a limiting wedge is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate. The limiting wedge can cooperate with the mounting groove to mount the entire protective shell onto the mounting bracket inside the equipment box. A first operating groove is provided in the top plate. A spring sheet is fixedly installed at the top of the first operating groove. Slots are provided on both sides of the first operating groove. The top plate is inserted into the mounting groove, and the bottom of the spring sheet abuts against the bottom of the limiting block. By inserting the top plate into the mounting groove and making the bottom of the spring sheet abut against the limiting block, the limiting wedge can be placed at the bottom of the mounting groove, thereby enabling quick assembly and disassembly of the protective shell in cooperation with the mounting groove.
[0008] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second operating groove is provided at the lower part of the damping plate. Inserts are fixedly installed on both sides of the damping plate. The damping plate is installed in the first operating groove through the inserts on both sides. The inserts are installed in the corresponding slots. The top of the damping plate is provided with a slope towards the limiting wedge. By inserting the damping plate into the first operating groove, the limiting wedge can cooperate with the mounting slot to clamp the protective shell onto the mounting bracket. The damping plate can compensate for the gap between the mounting bracket and the limiting wedge, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the protective shell.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: In this invention, a damping plate with a sloping top is inserted into the first operating groove in the top plate. This allows the protective shell to be secured to the mounting bracket by means of the mounting groove, the top plate, and the limiting wedge. The damping plate is then pushed up so that its top is inserted between the mounting groove and the mounting bracket, thus ensuring the verticality of the protective shell installation and improving its stability. The limiting block installed in the mounting groove allows for quick replacement of the top plate. Attached Figure Description

[0012] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0013] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a quick-release modular intelligent dimming switch, including a protective shell 1. Multiple wiring terminals 2 are fixedly installed at the lower front side of the protective shell 1. A reset button 3 is movably installed at the front side of the protective shell 1 above the wiring terminals 2. Multiple indicator lights 4 are fixedly installed at the position above the reset button 3. The reset button 3 and the indicator lights 4 are electrically connected to the main control module inside the protective shell 1 through a circuit board. A mounting groove 5 is opened on the rear side of the protective shell 1. A mounting groove 6 is opened at the bottom of the mounting groove 5. A limit block 7 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 6. A top plate 8 is movably installed in the mounting groove 6 at the position in front of the limit block 7. A damping plate 9 is movably installed on the front side of the top plate 8.
[0014] like Figures 2-4 As shown, positioning grooves 10 are provided on both sides of the mounting groove 6. The longitudinal section of the positioning groove 10 is L-shaped. Multiple slots 11 are provided on the inner side of the positioning groove 10. The positioning grooves 10 on both sides of the mounting groove 6 can provide the conditions for positioning and installation of the limiting block 7. The slots 11 can limit the limiting block 7 to be located in the mounting groove 6. The limiting block 7 has an L-shaped structure. Positioning blocks 12 are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting block 7. The longitudinal section of the positioning block 12 is the same as that of the slot 11. Multiple protrusions 13 are fixedly installed on one side of the positioning block 12. The positions of the protrusions 13 correspond to the slots 11 on the inner side of the positioning groove 10. The limiting block 7 is inserted into the mounting groove 6, and the positioning block 12 is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 10. The protrusions 13 are engaged in the corresponding slots 11. By setting the mounting groove 6 with detachable limiting blocks 7, it is easy to replace the top plate 8 as a whole in case of damage during operation.
[0015] like Figures 2-5 As shown, a limiting wedge 14 is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 8. The limiting wedge 14 can cooperate with the mounting groove 5 to clamp the entire protective shell 1 onto the mounting bracket inside the equipment box. A first operating groove 15 is opened in the top of the first operating groove 15. A spring plate 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the first operating groove 15. Slots 17 are opened on both sides of the first operating groove 15. The top plate 8 is inserted into the mounting groove 6. The bottom of the spring plate 16 abuts against the bottom of the limiting block 7. By inserting the top plate 8 into the mounting groove 6 and making the bottom of the spring plate 16 abut against the limiting block 7, the limiting wedge 14 can be placed at the bottom of the mounting groove 5, thereby cooperating with the mounting groove 5. To enable quick assembly and disassembly of the protective shell 1, a second operating slot 18 is provided at the lower part of the damping plate 9. Inserts 19 are fixedly installed on both sides of the damping plate 9. The damping plate 9 is inserted into the first operating slot 15 through the inserts 19 on both sides. The inserts 19 are inserted into the corresponding slots 17. The top of the damping plate 9 is provided with a slope towards the limiting wedge 14. When the damping plate 9 is inserted into the first operating slot 15, the limiting wedge 14 can cooperate with the snap-fit slot 5 to snap the protective shell 1 onto the mounting bracket. The damping plate 9 can compensate for the gap between the mounting bracket and the limiting wedge 14, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the protective shell 1.
[0016] It should be noted that this utility model is a quick-release modular intelligent dimming switch. During installation, the protective shell 1 is aligned with the mounting bracket. After the limiting wedge 14 on the top of the top plate 8 abuts against one side of the mounting bracket, it moves downward using the slope of its top. As a result, the spring plate 16 inside the top plate 8 abuts against the bottom of the limiting block 7 and deforms and compresses. The top plate 8 then moves downward in the mounting groove 6, eventually making the top of the limiting wedge 14 flush with the top surface of the mounting groove 6. At this time, the locking groove 5 is completely inserted into the mounting bracket, so the limiting wedge 14 has no upward restriction. At this time, the spring plate 16 rebounds, which can drive the top plate 8 to move upward. Thus, the top plate 8 drives the limiting wedge 14 to move upward and place it on the side of the mounting bracket opposite to the protective shell 1, thereby allowing the first operating through groove 15 to... The top plate 8 is snapped onto the mounting bracket with the limiting wedge 14. Then, a screwdriver or other tool is inserted into the second operating slot 18 and tilted upwards, causing the damping plate 9 to move upwards in the first operating slot 15. The top of the damping plate 9 is inserted into the gap between the mounting bracket and the inner side of the snap-fit slot 5, thus ensuring the verticality of the protective shell 1 and improving the stability of the protective shell 1. Subsequently, the main control module inside the protective shell 1 is connected to the wiring terminal 2 through the circuit board. After receiving external signals, it adjusts the brightness of the light. The reset button 3 can reset the dimming settings of the main control module, and the indicator light 4 displays the current dimming status. When the main control module receives an adjustment signal, it will change the output current through the internal circuit to control the brightness of the lamp and adapt to different scene requirements. When disassembling or replacing parts, pry the limiting block 7 so that the limiting block 7 drives the positioning blocks 12 on both sides to move horizontally from the corresponding positioning grooves 10, and so that the positioning blocks 12 disengage from the corresponding slots 11. Then, the limiting block 7 can be removed from the mounting groove 6. After that, the top plate 8 can be removed and replaced with a new one.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
