Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the size and weight of a photocoupler by disposing a light emitting element and a photodetector so that the light from the element arrives directly at the photodetector when the elements are integrally sealed, and connecting the photodetector in series with the power supply passage of the element, thereby eliminating an exciting coil and the like. CONSTITUTION:When a light emitting diode 2 as a light emitting element and a phototransistor 3 as a photodetector are integrally sealed as a self-holding type photocoupler 1, the elements are arranged so that the light from the diode 2 arrives directly at the photodetecting surface of the transistor 3. The cathode of the diode 2 is connected directly to the collector of the transistor 3, and a power source 4 having a current limiting resistor 5 in series is inserted between the anode of the diode 2 and the emitter of the transistor 3. Thereafter, an ON contact 6 is provided between the cathode of the diode 2 and the emitter of the transistor 3, and an OFF contact 7 is provided between the power source 4 and the resistor 5. In this manner, a movable contact is eliminated, thereby steadily performing the operation adapted for an indicator.

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a self-holding 11-fold coupler that is lightweight and has a wide range of applications. Conventional self-holding 1t! ! As shown in Fig. 1, when the self-relay contact (101) is connected to the power supply path of the excitation coil (100) of the relay, once the ON contact (106) is closed, a closed circuit is formed. There was a type of relay that continued to be energized even after the ON contact (106) was restored until the 0FFllj single point (107) was opened. However, the excitation coil (100) and relay contact (101) (101) r1
In addition to the larger volume, the excitation current must be several + mA or more, so the current capacity of the relay advantage (101) also becomes larger, and the noise of the relay contacts (101) (101) also becomes louder. An ON contact (106) is required for the operation of the self-holding II contact! Therefore, although it has the advantage of being able to select all modes with one operation, it is not suitable for remote control.The present invention has been made in consideration of the above points, and the present invention will be described in detail below along with examples. do.

Figure 5114 is a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of j[2 of the self-holding optical coupler ill. It is mounted and fixed on the top of @(2) and wired. These elements are sealed with transparent @M@ of epoxy tree 1III, and the top part is intended to be molded into a lens body, so unless the 0NWI point (6) is used, external light (visible When irradiated with light (infrared light or infrared light), it enters a self-holding state.Moreover, at this time, the source of the light emitting element can be seen visually, so it can also be used as an indicator. In the cross-sectional view of the embodiment II5, a light emitting element such as an llriGa1g infrared light emitting diode, @ is a light receiving element such as an 81 pyroelectric chick diode, and these are mounted and fixed on the stem (2) and wired. ■ is a glass plate with a silicon coating that selectively transmits infrared light, and (to) is a fixed metal frame.
The pixel element is sealed with a fixed metal frame - stem @ β lath plate. Such self-preservation! The lI element bond goes into a self-holding state when exposed to infrared light, but it does not operate even when exposed to visible light. ◎This technique is 114! Example a and the fifth
In the example shown, ON! Since one point 16) is not necessarily required, remote control can be easily performed. Also, the light emitting element has a 0.000 mm width on each side.
Since it is sufficient that the size of the light-receiving element is 1- or less on each side, it can be made very small. As described above, the present invention integrates a light-emitting element and a light-receiving element, arranges at least a pixel element in which the light-emitting element reaches the light-receiving element, and arranges the pixel element in series with the power supply path of the light-emitting element. The light receiving element is W! Self-retention 11'y
Since it is a t-coupler, there is no need for excitation coils, etc. as in the past, making it small and lightweight.Furthermore, since there is no movable point, the operation is quiet, and it can also be used for remote control or as an indicator.
