Description

Headlight switch controller

A switch controller, especially a switch controller for a locomotive headlight.

With the continuous development of the society, the frequency of the use of transportation by the public is getting higher and higher, and the number of steam and locomotives is increasing day by day, making the streets and lanes full of various means of transportation. As the number of steam and locomotives increases, so does the number of traffic accidents.

In order to reduce traffic accidents, some research suggests that the headlights should be used during daytime driving. The study suggests that the headlights can remind other passers-by when driving in the daytime, including other driving and passers-by, improving the alertness of passers-by and reducing accidents. rate.

Therefore, many countries have begun to introduce full-time lighting design, forcing the headlights of new factory steam and locomotives to start at the start of the launch, and the headlights remain lit during day or night driving to remind other passers-by. effect.

However, the existing full-time lighting design not only consumes more power, but also reduces the service life of the headlights. Therefore, some creators have designed a modified circuit for full-time lighting. The relay and the diode are added to the original lamp line, and the headlight is connected through a set of wires, so that the locomotive does not automatically light when it is started.

However, since the internal space of the locomotive front is not large, the existing modified circuit has a certain volume and is relatively difficult to be placed in the front of the locomotive, which makes assembly difficult. Moreover, the internal space of the locomotive front is narrow, and a plurality of wires of the modified circuit must be bent to be smoothly put into the front of the vehicle. During the installation process, the circuit may be short-circuited or broken due to inadvertent bending, resulting in many constructions. inconvenient.

Based on the inconvenience of the aforementioned existing modified circuit, the applicant believes that it is necessary to carry out development and improvement of related products for the aforementioned problems, and then carry out actual improvement tests. After many trials and experiments, after repeated failures, I finally created a new type of headlight switch controller.

In order to make the existing headlight modification circuit can be easily placed in the front of the locomotive, the present invention proposes a headlight switch controller, which is inserted into the casing through a small-sized relay combined with the diode and on the outer surface of the casing. The adapter can be installed to replace the existing modified circuit into the front of the vehicle to avoid occupying too much space inside the front.

In order to achieve the above object, the headlight switch control controller provided by the present invention is electrically connected to a headlight switch and a lamp of a locomotive, and the headlight switch controller comprises:  a first connector electrically connected to the headlight switch and including a first proximity light contact, a first low light contact, and a ground point;  a second connector electrically connected to the headlight switch and including a second proximity light contact, a second low light contact, and a ground point; wherein the second high light contact is connected to the first high light Point electrical connection, the grounding point is grounded;  a relay electrically connected to the first joint and the second joint, and comprising a first contact, a second contact, a third contact and a fourth contact;  a first diode, the anode is electrically connected to the first pole light contact and the second high beam contact, and the negative pole is electrically connected to the first contact;  a second diode having a positive electrode electrically connected to the first contact and a negative electrode electrically connected to the second proximal contact;  A casing can be placed in the front of the locomotive, and the first joint, the second joint, the relay, the first diode and the second diode are placed inside the casing.  

Wherein, the housing can adopt a waterproof outer casing to prevent the circuit such as the relay from being damaged by moisture.

The new type of the first diode, the second diode and the relay are placed in the casing to form an integral headlight switch controller, which can be easily placed in the front of the locomotive. The method of simplifying the installation of the circuit does not require the use of a modified circuit with complicated wires, and is not only installed, but also avoids excessive occupation of the internal space of the front head, so that other spaces can be reserved for other lines. At the same time, it is also possible to avoid accidentally bending the line during the modification process and causing the line to break. In addition, after the modification is completed, it is also possible to avoid the breakage caused by the vibration of the vehicle body during the driving process.

Flameout phase: Since the battery of the locomotive has not been energized at this stage, the headlight switch controller 1 is not energized, and the headlight 60 does not illuminate.

Start-up phase: When the keyhole of the locomotive is rotated, the battery of the locomotive is energized and ready to start the locomotive. At this time, since the headlight switch controller 1 has not been powered to the headlight 60, the headlight 60 does not illuminate. .

Start-up phase: when the locomotive is started, the headlight switch controller 1 is powered, but at this time, since the headlight switch 50 is located at the position where the near-light is activated, the first high-light contact 12 is not energized, so that the switch The SW cannot be closed, and even if the first proximity lamp contact 11 is energized, it cannot form a loop with the second proximity lamp contact 21, and the proximity lamp will not be illuminated.
