AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for replacing programmable controllers (PLCs) require individual wiring conversion adapters for each module, leading to increased development and component costs, as well as increased printed wiring board size and complexity, due to the need for custom designs and circuit switching components.

Method used

A wiring conversion adapter comprising a first printed wiring board, a second printed wiring board, and an inter-printed wiring board connector, where the connector's mounting position is varied to switch between multiple wiring patterns without adding circuit switching components, allowing reuse of existing wiring groups by separating common and unique wiring portions on both boards.

Benefits of technology

Enables multiple wiring patterns to be accommodated while suppressing the increase in printed wiring board size and component count, reducing costs and complexity by allowing the same pair of printed wiring boards to be used across different modules with varying wiring patterns.

Abstract

The components provided include a wiring adapter which has a first printed wiring panel; The second printed circuit board and its connector are configured to connect the printed circuit boards. The two panels are joined together in a wiring adapter; the wiring pattern is printed on the wiring panel. One and a second printed wiring panel will be invented for the wiring section separately, together with... Various wiring patterns and individual wiring sections, as well as connector placement. The printed circuit board (PCB) wiring panel can also be modified so that the wiring section of two PCBs is shared. They will be connected together at all times, while each wiring section of the printed circuit board is also connected. The two panels will then be connected together according to the desired wiring pattern.
