The motor electromagnetic brake unit 29, the motor position detection unit 30 for detecting the position of the motor, the electrostatic detection unit 23, the overcurrent detection unit 25, the motor position detection unit 30 and the time set unit ( Phase by the output signal LCD and LED display unit 27, the motor driving circuit unit 28 and the motor electronic brake unit 29 is configured of a microprocessor device unit 21 for controlling the operation, respectively.

Referring to the operation by the above configuration, first, the power supply unit 22 supplies 12V and 5V power to the entire control system, respectively, and the power failure detection unit 23 transmits a signal in case of power failure to the microprocessor device unit 21. Protects stored data and stops the electronic switch.

The battery charger 24 operates for about 720 hours or more when a power failure occurs and power failure continues, thereby preserving data stored in the microprocessor device 21 by supplying power to the entire system. And time display.

The overcurrent detection unit 25 generates a signal detected when an overcurrent exceeding the rated current flows, and transmits the signal to the microprocessor unit 21 to open the electronic switch to block the overcurrent flowing to the load.

The time set unit 26 operates the clock after the system is initialized and inputs the energization time, interruption time and current time through the operation switch as necessary after the initial and power failure recovery.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a program embedded in the microprocessor device 21 shown in FIG. 2. The operation of each step is as follows.

In the 31st step 31, when input power is applied, power is supplied to the whole control system through the power supply part 22 at 12V and 5V, respectively.

In the thirty-second step 32, after the power is supplied, the operation of the microprocessor unit 21 is started and the system is initialized.

The clock is operated after the system is initialized in the thirty-third step 33, and after the initial and power failure recovery in the thirty-fourth step 34, the energization time, interruption time and present time are adjusted with the operation switch as necessary.

In the 35th step 35, after completion of the time operation, the system operates normally and the microprocessor unit 21 monitors the state of the electronic switchgear, the overcurrent state and the time state from time to time.

In step 36, it is determined whether the current time is in the energized time zone or the cut off time zone.

Step 37 to step 42 is a series of operating procedures for closing the noiseless magnetic contactor when the current time is in the energized time zone.

First, if the current time is in the energized time zone (step 37),

In a 38 th step 38, it is determined whether the first switch for turning the power on and off is turned on. At this time, the magnetic contactor is in a state of cutting off the power in the open state.

When the first switch is in an off state rather than an on state, the first switch immediately skips to step 42 to close the noiseless magnetic contactor.

In a 39 th step 39, the motor is operated when the first switch is in an on state in the 38 th step 38. In this case, the first switch operates the motor in an on or off state. Here, the motor is operated when the first switch is in an on state.

In the 40th step 40, it is determined whether the second switch for outputting the stop signal of the motor after the motor is in an off state. At this time, when the second switch is in an on state, it is fed back to the 40th step 40.

In step 42, if the current time is in the energized time zone, the noiseless electronic switch is closed by the steps 37 and 41.

On the other hand, step 43 to step 48 is a series of operating procedures for opening the noiseless magnetic contactor when the current time is in the cutoff time zone.

First, if the current time is in the blocked time zone (step 43),

In a 44th step 44, it is determined whether the first switch for turning the power on and off is off. At this time, the magnetic contactor is in a state of supplying power in a closed state.

When the first switch is in an on state instead of an off state, the first switch is directly skipped to open the noiseless magnetic contactor.

In a 45th step 45, the motor is operated when the first switch is in an off state in the 44th step 44. In this case, the first switch operates the motor in an on or off state. Here, the motor is operated when the first switch is in an off state.

In a forty sixth step 46, it is determined whether the second switch for outputting the stop signal of the motor after the motor is in operation is off. At this time, when the second switch is in an on state, it is fed back to the forty-sixth step 46.

In the 47th step 47, the motor is stopped by the motor electromagnetic brake circuit unit 29 when the second switch is in an off state.

Forty-eighth step 48 opens the noiseless electronic switchgear by the thirty-seventh step 37 and the forty-first step 41 when the current time is in the cutoff time zone.
