Description

 The present invention is a system for controlling an electric circuit by installing a sensor or switch having an oscillator without restriction to the installation place or the number of installation and operating a relay inserted in the electric circuit by a signal received wirelessly.

 Control of the electric circuit is usually controlled by a switch or sensor connected to the electric circuit, or controlled by a remote control. The present invention is a system that is completely different from the on / off by remote control, which controls the electric circuit completely without any restriction on the number of installed devices.

Patent No. 5876613 Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-234398

Control of the electrical load is controlled by a switch or sensor, or by remote control or IOT, but we also want to control the electrical load highly without limiting the installation location or number of switches or human sensors.
In the present invention, a combination of a receiver and a switch or sensor, or a combination of a display, a light, etc. (hereinafter referred to as a switch / sensor wireless device) is installed as necessary in a seal and connected to an electric circuit. Relays, relay controllers, wireless receivers, displays, sensors, etc. (these will be referred to as control devices hereinafter) to receive the signal or transmit them to the switch / sensor wireless device, and thereby the electric circuit Control freely freely.
Eliminate the traditional limitations of electrical circuits.

 There is no limit to the number of switch / sensor radios, and switches / sensors may use switches, sensors, or other active or passive components of the required function, and further, the functions of the switches or sensors themselves. You may operate from a control apparatus. The number of control devices is not limited, and fine control can be achieved by adding an ID to each signal.

It consists of a switch / sensor radio unit and a control unit.
The basic configuration is composed of a device in which an oscillator is attached to a switch, a relay inserted in an electric circuit, and a signal processing unit that operates the relay with a received signal. There is no limit on their quantity, and there is no limit on the installation location of the switch / sensor radio device. In addition, the conventional switch was left in the electric circuit, and it was possible to utilize it.

The relay is inserted in series in the electric circuit, in parallel with the two-way switch of the electric circuit, in a three-way circuit, at the 0 terminal of two three-way switches, or between two wires between switches. But
Alternatively, shorting the 1 and 3 terminals of the 3-way switch and shorting the 2 and 4 terminals the same for the 4-way switch will result in a steady flow of electricity, but momentarily during switch operation Since the electrical opening occurs, the controller inserted in the circuit may catch it and perform signal processing as a switch operation. When a two-way switch is used, it can be similarly done by replacing it with a three-way switch or a four-way switch. Clogged, which allows full control of the load, even in the circuit where the switch is inserted.

The switch of the switch-sensor wireless device may have the same function as a switch that controls a conventional electric circuit, or may have another function, for example, a switch operating for a fixed time.
There are various kinds of sensors such as humidity, illuminance, and odor, but the necessary number of sensors can be installed at the required positions. In addition, methods such as detection with a distance sensor, gesture detection, detection with image recognition, and the like can be considered.

 When the control device receives a signal from the switch / sensor wireless device, the switch can correspond to a plurality of switches by opening it if the electric circuit is in a closed state and closing it if it is open. Of course, the signal from the switch / sensor wireless device is not always used for opening or closing, and it may be used for a fixed period of time or for changing the passing current, or for controlling the built-in display or lighting. .

 The control device also enables transmission to the switch / sensor wireless device, so that the sensitivity of the sensor of the switch / sensor wireless device can be changed, and operations such as turning on the built-in illumination can be performed. In addition, although operation with limited load is also possible by connecting the control device, adding ID to each signal enables it to correspond to multiple loads and multiple switches respectively, which also enables fine control. .

 The control device is installed on an electric circuit, incorporated in a load, incorporated in a switch, or connected by a socket or an adapter. It may also have control over time, as do switch-sensor radios.

 Lighting and ventilation fans can be controlled without being limited by wiring. Moreover, multiple switches can also be used. Control of multiple lights and ventilation fans is also possible.

You can arrange as many places as you need. Control of multiple loads is also possible. In addition, it is possible to control using the clock function for the switch / sensor wireless device and control device.
