Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED driving technology, and in particular to an embedded LED driver with signal serial connection and overload protection function. Background Technology
[0002] An LED driver is a specialized power conversion and control device that provides stable power to LEDs to ensure their normal operation. It is a core component of LED lighting or display systems. Its core function is to convert mains power into the low-voltage DC current or voltage required by LEDs, and to prevent current and voltage fluctuations from damaging the LED chips through constant current, constant voltage and other control methods.
[0003] Current LED drivers have limited series connection capabilities, with most operating as a single driver independently. This makes it impossible to achieve signal series control of a large number of drivers, which is insufficient to meet the driving needs of different sites. At the same time, most installation methods are external mounting or screw fixing. External mounting takes up space and detracts from the aesthetics of the scene, while screw fixing is cumbersome to operate, prone to loosening after long-term use, and lacks stability. The driver panel cannot be adjusted to suit customer preferences or assembly environment, resulting in poor adaptability. Some drivers lack effective overload protection mechanisms, which can easily damage the equipment when the load exceeds the maximum current capacity, posing a safety hazard. Furthermore, the types of sensing devices they can adapt to are limited, resulting in significant functional limitations. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: an embedded LED driver with signal series overload protection function, including a replacement component, a connection component installed inside the replacement component, and a mounting component installed on the top of the replacement component;
[0006] The replacement component includes a cover connected to the bottom of the connecting component, a mounting plate set on the top of the cover, a first buckle set at the front and rear ends of the inner side of the mounting plate, a middle frame installed inside the mounting plate, a first connecting plate set at the bottom of the middle frame, a first slot opened at the front and rear ends of the first connecting plate, a mounting hole opened at the front and rear ends of the middle frame, an elastic steel ball installed inside the mounting hole, and a second buckle set at the front and rear ends of the inner side of the middle frame.

[0008] The mounting assembly includes a bottom cover mounted on the top of the middle frame, a connecting plate two disposed at the bottom of the bottom cover, slots two opened at the front and rear ends of the connecting plate two, and a through hole opened at the top of the bottom cover.
[0009] Preferably, the first buckle and the first slot, as well as the second buckle and the second slot, are linearly and uniformly distributed, with the first buckle installed inside the first slot and the second buckle installed inside the second slot.
[0010] Preferably, both the mounting holes and the elastic steel balls are arranged in a linear and uniform manner at the front and rear ends of the middle frame.
[0011] Preferably, the overload indicator light has two working states: red and green, and the overload indicator light is electrically connected to the LED driver integrated control output quick-connect terminal.
[0012] Preferably, the multiple LED drivers can be connected in series via sensor series wiring terminals.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. This utility model allows for convenient and quick connection to a sensor via wired signal output.

The overload indicator light provides a quick and easy way for users to identify whether the LED driver has exceeded its power capacity, preventing damage or reduced lifespan due to overload.
[0016] 2. This utility model uses 6 elastic steel balls with an embedded design to achieve stable fixation within the plate without screws. The installation operation only requires two steps: "drilling holes and embedding", saving installation time. At the same time, the steel ball clamping structure prevents loosening after long-term use and improves installation stability. In addition, the detachable and replaceable panel design allows the appearance to be adjusted according to the customer's aesthetics or scene style, improving the overall aesthetics and solving the problems of poor fixation and compatibility of traditional driver panels.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] An embedded LED driver with signal series connection and overload protection, according to Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a replacement component 1, a connecting component 2 installed inside the replacement component 1, and a mounting component 3 installed on top of the replacement component 1;
[0024] Replacement component 1 includes a face cover 101 connected to the bottom of connection component 2, a mounting plate 102 disposed on the top of face cover 101, a first buckle 103 disposed on the front and rear ends of the inner side of mounting plate 102, a middle frame 104 installed inside mounting plate 102, a first connecting plate 105 disposed at the bottom of middle frame 104, a first slot 106 opened at the front and rear ends of connecting plate 105, a mounting hole 107 opened at the front and rear ends of middle frame 104, a spring steel ball 108 installed inside mounting hole 107, and a second buckle 109 disposed on the front and rear ends of middle frame 104.
[0025] The connection assembly 2 includes a circuit board 201 installed inside the middle frame 104, an LED driver integrated control output quick-connect terminal 202 installed on the top of the circuit board 201, an LED driver non-integrated control output quick-connect terminal 203 installed on the top of the circuit board 201, an overload indicator 204 installed on the top of the circuit board 201, a multi-LED driver sensor series terminal 205 installed on the top of the circuit board 201, an LED driver sensor terminal 206 installed on the top of the circuit board 201, and a quick-connect female connector 207 installed on the top of the circuit board 201.
[0026] Mounting component 3 includes a bottom cover 301 mounted on the top of the middle frame 104, a connecting plate 302 disposed at the bottom of the bottom cover 301, a slot 303 formed at the front and rear ends of the connecting plate 302, and a through hole 304 formed at the top of the bottom cover 301.
[0027] according to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, buckle 103 and slot 106, as well as buckle 2 109 and slot 2 303, are all linearly and uniformly distributed. Buckle 103 is installed inside slot 106, and buckle 2 109 is installed inside slot 2 303.
[0028] It should be noted that the fit between buckle 103 and slot 106, and buckle 2 109 and slot 2 303, allows the face cover 101 and bottom cover 301 to be disassembled and replaced, so that the appearance of the face cover 101 and bottom cover 301 can be adjusted according to needs, thus improving adaptability.
[0029] according to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting holes 107 and the elastic steel balls 108 are both arranged in a linear and uniform manner at the front and rear ends of the middle frame 104.
[0030] It should be noted that the use of 108 elastic steel balls in conjunction with the embedded design allows for the secure fixing of the LED driver without the need for screws, saving installation time and preserving the overall aesthetics of the board. At the same time, the steel ball clamping structure prevents loosening over long-term use and improves installation stability.
[0031] according to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the overload indicator 204 has two working states: red and green. The overload indicator 204 is electrically connected to the LED driver integrated control output quick-connect terminal 202.
[0032] It should be noted that when the power of the LED lamp is lower than the power that the LED driver can withstand, the overload indicator 204 will light up green; when the power of the LED lamp is higher than the power that the LED driver can withstand, the overload indicator 204 will light up red as an alarm, making it convenient for users to quickly identify whether the LED driver is overloaded.
[0033] according to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sensor series connection terminal 205 between multiple LED drivers can connect multiple LED drivers together in series through the sensor series connection wire.
[0034] It should be noted that after multiple LED drivers are connected in series, the on / off state of the LED lights connected to the other LED drivers can be controlled by a sensor on one of the LED drivers; and no matter how many LED drivers are connected in series, the on / off state of the lights is controlled by a sensor on one of the LED drivers.
[0035] according to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the through hole 304 corresponds one-to-one with the LED driver integrated control output quick terminal 202, the LED driver non-integrated control output quick terminal 203, the sensor series connection terminal 205 between multiple LED drivers, the LED driver sensor connection terminal 206, and the quick-connect female connector 207.
[0036] It should be noted that the through hole 304 allows signal connection lines to be installed on the corresponding terminals, while the bottom cover 301 protects other electrical components on the circuit board 201.
[0037] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
