Definitions

• the present invention relates to a control or regulating device for arranged in or on a furniture or furniture part electrical components, comprising:
• a microprocessor which takes over the control or regulating functions during operation and
• control or regulating devices are provided, which usually have a microprocessor arranged on a printed circuit board, which assumes the control or regulating functions during operation of the electrical component.
• control or regulating devices To enable a communication of the control or regulating device with the outside world usually at least one interface is provided, which may be formed, for example, to allow a wireless communication.
• the microprocessor which takes over the control or regulating functions and the interface are arranged on a common printed circuit board.
• This is correspondingly large and it has the additional problem that it is necessary in a change of either the microprocessor or the interface, also the other component newly certified according to the respective national radio guidelines, which is associated with considerable costs.
• DE 43 12 613 A1 shows a control device for electrical components with a processor and an interface for wireless communication with the outside world.
• the microprocessor and the interface are each housed in separate housings, which in any case leads to increased sizes.
• the object of the invention is to provide a generic control or regulating device which does not have the problems discussed above. This is achieved by a control or regulating device having the features of claim 1. This solution has a number of advantages over the prior art:
• microprocessor and interface Due to the modular design of microprocessor and interface, it is possible to use one and the same interface in control or regulating devices for different electrical components. Possible electrical components are, for example, electric furniture drives and electrical lighting for furniture or furniture parts.
• the interface itself will usually also be equipped with a microprocessor.
• the communication between the microprocessors arranged on different printed circuit boards can take place via an SPI interface (data bus) and additionally DIOs (digital input / outputs).
• the interface is designed as a radio interface. Further advantages and details of the invention will become apparent from the figures and the associated description of the figures.
• FIG. 1 to 4 show an embodiment of the invention with a designed as a flap actuator electric component in different views:
• the electrical component has been provided with the reference numeral 1.
• the electrical component 1 is designed as a furniture drive. Apart from the special design of the circuit boards 4, 5, the furniture drive corresponds to the prior art and therefore need not be explained in detail.
• Essential for the invention is the fact that a trained here as a radio interface interface 3 is arranged on a trained as a motherboard circuit board 4 separately formed circuit board 5 and that the interface 3, the microprocessor 2 and the circuit boards 4 and 5 in and the same housing 10 are located.
• the circuit boards 4, 5 are both connected to each other via a contact part 6.
• the power supply of the interface 3 takes place here via the contact part 6 and designed as a motherboard print 4. Alternatively, the power can also be separated from the mechanical attachment or it can be provided a separate power supply for the circuit board 5.
• Fig. 1 the electric motor 7 can be seen, which ultimately drives the furniture part (not shown) (flap).
• buttons 8 can be seen, which allow a manual access of the operator to the interface 3 and the microprocessor 2 of the motherboard.
• the circuit board 4 is equipped with such a control button 8.
