Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in detail and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

The intelligent socket can generally adopt a structural design that the power supply module and the control module are mutually separated, and can be assembled in a stacking mode. Although the size of the intelligent socket is reduced in the mode, in a narrow space inside the intelligent socket, it is difficult to ensure that the internal elements of the power supply module or the power supply module and the control module do not interfere with each other. If the internal components in the smart socket interfere with each other, the smart socket may not work properly. Therefore, the safety of the smart socket in the prior art is low.

In view of this, an embodiment of the present invention provides an intelligent socket, in which an isolation device is disposed, so as to isolate a first circuit board from a second circuit board, and isolate a strong current component and a weak current component on the first circuit board, thereby improving the security of the intelligent socket.

The above technical solution will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1A, fig. 1B and fig. 1C, an embodiment of the invention provides a smart socket, which includes a first circuit board 101, a second circuit board 102 and an isolation device 103.

The first circuit board 101 may be a high-voltage circuit board on which a plurality of high-voltage components and a plurality of low-voltage components may be mounted. The strong electric elements on the first circuit board 101 may be, for example, power supply electrodes for supplying power to external devices connected to the smart socket. The number of the power supply electrodes is different according to the type of the intelligent socket. For example, when the smart socket is a two-phase socket, the power supply electrodes may include a first power supply electrode and a second power supply electrode, wherein the first power supply electrode is connected to the neutral wire and the second power supply electrode is connected to the live wire. For another example, when the smart socket is a three-phase socket, the power supply electrodes may include a first power supply electrode, a second power supply electrode, and a third power supply electrode, where the first power supply electrode is connected to the zero line, the second power supply electrode is connected to the live line, and the third power supply electrode is connected to the ground line. The weak current components on the first circuit board 101 may include resistors, capacitors, and the like, for adjusting the output current of the first circuit board 101, so that the smart socket is suitable for different types of household appliances.

The second circuit board 102 may include a plurality of weak electrical components, which may include, for example, a microprocessor, a communication module, and a switch module. The communication module may be used to receive input information from an external device. The communication module may include various types of communication modules, such as a wireless fidelity (WIFI) module, a bluetooth module, or a voice input module. The second circuit board 102 can control the first circuit board 101. For example, a voice input module disposed on the second circuit board 102 may receive an input voice command, convert the voice command into an electrical signal, and transmit the electrical signal to a microprocessor, which controls the switch module. The switch module may be connected to the first circuit board 101 so that an output of the first circuit board 101 is controlled by the switch module.

The first circuit board 101 is mainly used to provide power to external devices, and the second circuit board 102 is mainly used to control the first circuit board 101. In order to reduce the volume of the smart socket, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first circuit board 101 and the second circuit board 102 may be assembled in a stacked manner, that is, the first circuit board 101 and the second circuit board 102 are stacked. However, the space inside the smart socket is limited, and the relative distance between the first circuit board 101 and the second circuit board 102 is relatively short, so that the strong electric elements on the first circuit board 101 may interfere with the weak electric elements on the second circuit board 102 when operating. For example, a large amount of heat generated by the operation of the strong electric elements may cause thermal breakdown, such as breakdown of ambient air, cause electromagnetic interference to the weak electric elements on the second circuit board 102, and may also generate short circuits, so that the safety of the conventional smart socket is low.

In view of this, in the embodiment of the present invention, the isolating device 103 is added in the smart socket, and the isolating device 103 is located between the first circuit board 101 and the second circuit board 102, so as to isolate the strong electric elements and the weak electric elements on the first circuit board 101, and isolate the strong electric elements and the weak electric elements on the second circuit board 102 on the first circuit board 101. Therefore, the weak current elements can be protected from the influence of electromagnetic interference as much as possible, short circuit among the strong current elements can be avoided as much as possible, and the safety of the intelligent socket is improved.

Specifically, please refer to fig. 2A and fig. 2B, which are schematic structural diagrams of the isolation device 103. The insulation means 103 comprises at least two insulation sleeves 201 and a connecting piece 202 for connecting the at least two insulation sleeves 201. In some embodiments, the connecting member 202 and the at least two insulating sleeves 201 may be integrally formed to facilitate assembly.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the material of the isolation device 103 may be selected from polyamide or polycarbonate. Both of these materials have good heat resistance and insulation, and even if the strong electric elements on the first circuit board 101 are subjected to arc breakdown, the weak electric elements on the first circuit board 101 and the weak electric elements on the second circuit board 102 can be well protected. Meanwhile, the two materials have good mechanical properties, namely good mechanical strength and good toughness, so that the isolating device 103 can have different appearance shapes according to different types of the intelligent socket so as to meet different application requirements.

When the isolation device 103 is disposed between the first circuit board 101 and the second circuit board 102, in order to ensure a good isolation effect, in the embodiment of the present invention, the isolation device 103 may be fixed to the first circuit board 101 or the second circuit board 102. Several ways of fixing the isolation device 103 will be described below by taking the example of fixing the isolation device 103 on the first circuit board 101.

In a first fixing manner, in the embodiment of the present invention, the connecting member 202 of the isolating device 103 and the first circuit board 101 are both provided with through holes, and the through holes provided on the first circuit board 101 have a threaded structure. The through hole on the first circuit board 101 has a thread structure matching the thread structure of the screw used. When it is desired to fix the spacer 103 to the first circuit board 101, screws may be passed through the through holes of the connector 202 and screwed into the through holes provided in the first circuit board 101. The fixing mode is simple and easy to realize.

The second fixing mode is that a first clamping piece is arranged on the connecting piece 202 in the isolating device 103, the first connecting piece and the connecting piece are integrally formed, a second clamping piece is arranged on the first circuit board 101, and when the isolating device 103 needs to be fixed on the first circuit board 101, the first clamping piece and the second clamping piece are clamped with each other, so that the fixing mode is simple and convenient.

In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, the isolation device 103 may be fixed by using the above two fixing methods. Namely, the fixing between the isolation device 103 and the first circuit board 101 is enhanced by using the screw fixing mode and the clamping piece fixing mode.

As can be seen from the above, when the screw is used to fix the isolation device 103, once the screw is not properly operated, the screw structure disposed in the first circuit board 101 may be damaged, so that the screw does not completely fit the screw structure in the first circuit board 101, and the isolation device 103 may not be firmly fixed on the first circuit board 101. Or when the isolating device is fixed by using the clamping piece, the contact area between the connecting piece 202 and the first circuit board 101 is small, so that the clamping is easy to be insecure, and the problem of looseness possibly generated in the long-term use process is solved.

In view of this, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first fixing member 203 and the second fixing member 204 are further disposed in the isolation device 103. Specifically, the first fixing member 203 is disposed on a first insulation sleeve of the at least two insulation sleeves 201, and the second fixing member 204 is disposed on another insulation sleeve of the at least two insulation sleeves 201 except the first insulation sleeve. When the isolating device 103 is fixed by using a screw or a clamping piece separately or simultaneously, the newly added first fixing piece 203 and second fixing piece 204 can enhance the strength of fixing the isolating device 103.

The smart socket may further comprise a housing within which the first and second circuit boards 101, 102 and the isolation device 103 may be disposed. One face, for example the first face, of the housing may be provided with a face plate on which at least one receptacle is provided. Wherein the number of at least one jack is the same as the number of power supply electrodes in the first circuit board 101, and the position of each jack corresponds to the position of the power supply electrodes in the first circuit board 101. A power plug of an external device can be inserted into the jack to electrically connect with the power supply electrode in the first circuit board 101.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made in the embodiments of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations of the embodiments of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the embodiments of the present invention are also intended to include such modifications and variations.
