Definitions

  • the variators V and the switch C have electric pulsators to activate and connect, the electric networks example, having to switch and regulate two electric chargers, currently three electric pulsators or commands are needed, ie one for the switching and two to adjust each load the result is that with such an installation, it is impossible to carry out the electrical switching and the electrical variation of the charges of a single electric pulsator or of a single electric line of parallel pulsators and all the less, at from a single electric pulsator that is part of a remote device (ex: remote control); in addition such an installation is very complex to carry out because of the high number of electrical connections to be made, and it needs several spaces or place the elements in the chassis of standard electrical boxes.
  • This invention proposes to eliminate these drawbacks, by sloping the illustrated concepts c. above.
  • the main interest of this invention is therefore to provide a switch-dimmer device for electrical networks which consents to switch-regulate (vary) on an electrical installation, two or more electrical charges by means of an electrical control.
  • this invention provides a switch-dimmer device for electrical networks, the main characteristic of which forms the subject of the main claim, which is incorporated in full here.
  • Advantageous later characteristics result in the dependent claims, which are also reported.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 are electrical diagrams which illustrate several solutions for producing the switch-dimmer device for electrical networks included in an electrical installation with two electrical charges according to this invention.
  • BI indicates as a whole the switch-dimmer device for electrical networks, according to this invention. In the example illustrated in fig.
  • this switch-dimmer device BI is electrically connected, in an electrical installation, by two branches or loads A, B (ex: incandescent bulb) one or less adjustable, and comprises elements with integrated programmable circuits, provided with electronic elements from memory and conveniently synchronized on the network frequency, which control a plurality of power components, such as transistors, triacs, relays, etc., to switch and / or vary the electric voltage at the ends of these loads A, B naturally, if these examples are limited to only two electrical charges, the electrical installation can be applied to a major number of charges to be switched and / or regulated by the invented device, the switching and / or regulation of these charges A, B occurs by l intermediary of an electric pulsator P, which is provided with the switch-dimmer BI (Fig.
  • At least one of the two branches A, B can be a non-adjustable electrical load, for example a static-mechanical relay, to activate a different load (fan, a fluorescent bulb, etc.) the device BI, according to the invention has electronic receiving means, which allow remote control, such as radio wave, infrared conveyed wave, BUS line or other.
  • the BI device is structured and programmed to also receive from remote devices, complex information, such as the indication of the percentage of variation of the level of electric voltage on each load (eg branch A 40% , branch B 20%) which allows the different charges to be adjusted.
  • complex information such as the indication of the percentage of variation of the level of electric voltage on each load (eg branch A 40% , branch B 20%) which allows the different charges to be adjusted.
  • the device according to the invention is provided with electronic emitting means, for transmitting information to other electrical devices such as sights distant from the light level of the charges A, B.
  • the means of memory of device B memorize the level and the state of the different branches A, B.
  • the device BI memorizes the state and the level of the branches inside a memory, so as to keep the information in case of lack of electricity .; in addition, the device BI, according to the invention, contains photosensory electronic means for the automatic maintenance of the brightness levels of the branches A, B according to the change in intensity of the ambient light.
  • FIG. 7 A particularly advantageous application of the BI device according to the invention is illustrated (fig 7)
  • the device BI is electrically connected parallel to the electric pulsators (P) of these conventional devices, so as to be able to control singularly the electric pulsators (P) themselves, through the sole electric pulsator (P ) contained in the device (BI) or through a line of remote electric pulsators (PR) in parallel with this said device. Thanks to this device, it is possible to control from a single point two or more conventional variators (or switches).
  • the device BI is also provided with electronic light signaling means, which indicate the various functions of the device itself.
  • the BI device is placed in a single module inside a conventional standard electrical box as an alternative, the BI device is placed in several modules, for example two or three, in the event of need dictated by the power required and for the number of electrical loads to be controlled.
  • the BI device according to the invention is contained in lighting bodies, in dimming devices with pedal or in other similar electrical devices.
  • the same functions performed by program integrated circuit means can, in another version, be performed by microchip means.
