In addition, the power selection receiving unit may be configured to separately distinguish the signal transmitted from the power selection transmission unit according to the initial setting value, and may be configured to receive only or receive and transmit according to the signal setting value. .

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in more detail the configuration of the present invention.

1 is a conceptual diagram of a power saving power outlet device according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a system configuration diagram showing a configuration of a power saving power outlet device according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of a power saving power outlet device according to the present invention.

The apparatus is largely divided into a power selection transmitter, a power selection receiver, and a power gate.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the power selection transmitter 100 refers to a device that sends a command to the main controller unit 114 to select and drive a device to be driven. The above command is made of wireless communication 200, and is currently used in near-infrared communication (IrDA; Infrared Data Association) or RF (Radio Frequency), Bluetooth (blue tooth), microwave (microwave), etc. It consists of a transmitter including all devices capable of wireless remote control.

In addition, the communication method corresponds to all remote controls (remote control) used in electrical and electronic devices. Such a remote control can be used for all remote controllers used in general home appliances or a separate remote controller.

The power selection receiver 101 is a device for receiving wireless data of the power selection transmitter 100, converting the wireless data into a digital signal, and transmitting the digital signal to the power gate unit 103. Separated by. Here, of course, the communication by the ultrasonic wave is possible in the communication method of the power selection receiver and the power supply unit.

In addition, the mounting method of the power selection receiver may be attached to a position where reception of the remote controller is easy or embedded in a wall or the like when the power gate receiver is connected to the power gate unit by wire or wirelessly.

In addition, the received signal includes all signals transmitted from the power selection transmitter 100 and is individually classified according to the type of the wireless method. The transmission function of the power selection receiver 101 is transmitted from the power selection transmitter 100. The same signal is sent with a time delay.

The above transmission function is for the purpose of simplifying two consecutive operations of the power selection transmitter 100 with only one operation, and transmits the same signal as the power selection transmitter 100 so as to prevent crosstalk with other devices.

The power gate unit 103 analyzes the command signal transmitted from the power selection transmitter 100 and retrieves the data stored in the memory 115 to operate the corresponding device, and inputs the code of the same component input at the initial setting. Find the frequency and power on the device.

As described above, the current monitoring function allows the device to operate at rated power, but if the device shows a significant difference in current, the device is recognized as off and the power at the front end of the plug is automatically cut off.

The power gate 103 is divided into a software unit and a hardware unit, and the software unit stores a code and frequency component storage unit (device setting), a timer function, an automatic and manual selection, a power consumption monitoring function, and the like. It is configured to save power and convenience of use.

The hardware unit is composed of a current sensor, a power supply, a microcomputer, and a safety device.

In addition, the power gate portion 103 is preferably in the form of a multi-socket with a cord or a multi-socket without a cord or embedded in a wall, ceiling or floor. Such a method of mounting the power gate part 103 may be attached to the wall or the bottom of the form of a multi-socket with a cord, and the shape of the cordless multi-socket may be directly connected to an outlet attached to a wall or It is possible to connect and use multi sockets. In the case of an embedded type, it is possible to replace the existing embedded type outlet or to embed a separate type of embedded type device and connect wiring.

To set the code and frequency components of the power selection transmitter 100, press the setting switch of the power gate unit 103, point the power selection transmitter 100 (eg, the remote control) toward the power selection receiver 101, and turn on the power switch. Alternatively, the user selects a comfortable switch repeatedly, presses the power switch repeatedly, and sets the lamp to ON when the identification is completed, and stores the information in the memory 115 when it is completed.

The timer function operates by setting the ON and OFF times of the timer 116 and is configured to control a plurality of power sources with one timer 116. To set the time, use an external soft key or the remote control.

The automatic and manual selection is automatically switched to the manual mode when the remote control function is canceled or cannot be operated due to a failure or other causes.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described the operation of the present invention.

3 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of a power saving type outlet device according to the present invention. When power is initially turned on, the main program 104 is operated while continuously monitoring a set timer and a signal from the outside.

If the on / off time is set according to the equipment during operation, the on / off control is performed at that time. The device turned on during the main program continuously monitors the current 105 and cuts off the power supply of the device in response to an overcurrent or a low current according to the sudden change in the current.

In addition, when a signal is detected to the outside during the main program and an interrupt is required, the control signal is analyzed 106 and the signal is found from the memory stored in advance.

If there is no corresponding signal, the error state 108 is indicated and the control signal is read again. Repeat the input signal several times and return to the main program if there is no signal. If a control signal is found, operation is performed in step 1 109 or step 2 110 depending on the setting operation mode.

The first step 109 is to turn on the device and after a certain time delay 111 to send the same signal to turn on the main power of the device.

In the second step 110, only the power 112 is supplied to the corresponding device, and the main power of the device is turned on by pressing the power switch once more.

The control signal setting 113 is to press the corresponding value and repeatedly press the power switch or the desired switch of the transmitter to be set, the main processing unit (114, see Fig. 2) recognizes and displays the completion when the recognition is complete.

The operation step of the present invention mentioned above is characterized in that the return to the main main program 104 after completing each step.

As mentioned above, according to the present invention, it is possible to remotely cut off the remaining amount of current supplied to the electrical equipment at rest, thereby reducing the cost of the standby power supplied even in non-use, or to obtain an economic benefit. .
