When the first locking portion 131 and the second locking portion 132 are switched from engagement to disengagement, moving the locking plate 123 up relative to the main body 121 will drive the second locking portion 132 to move up. At this time, the locking portion 132 can be disengaged from the first locking portion 131. Then moving the locking plate 123 down will drive the second locking portion 132 to move down. At this time, the second locking portion 132 can engage with the first locking portion 131, and the first locking portion 131 and the second locking portion 132 can be switched again from disengagement to engagement.
In other embodiments, both the first locking portion 131 and the second locking portion 132 are provided with a buckle, respectively. When the first locking portion 131 is engaged with the second locking portion 132, the two buckles are engaged.

In other embodiments, one of the first locking portion 131 and the second locking portion 132 is a slot, and the other of the first locking portion 131 and the second locking portion 132 is a buckle. When the first locking portion 131 is engaged with the second locking portion 132, the buckle is held in the slot. When the first locking portion 131 is disengaged from the second locking portion 132, the buckle is disengaged from the slot.
In this embodiment, the number of buckles and slots is not limited to one. When at least two buckles and at least two slots are provided, each buckle and slot can be arranged side by side spaced apart along the vertical direction. The numbers of buckles and slots are not limited hereto.

When the first locking portion 131 is engaged with the second locking portion 132, the elastic member 124 is in a slightly compressed state or a normal state. When the locking portion 131 and the second locking portion 132 are switched from engagement to disengagement (for example, when the second housing 120 needs to be opened), the locking plate 123 can be driven manually to move up relative to the main body 121, which will drive the second locking portion 132 to move up, at this time, the second locking portion 132 can be disengaged from the first locking portion 131, and the elastic member 124 is further compressed. After the locking plate 123 is released, the locking plate 123 is automatically reset by the resilience of the elastic member 124 to avoid the need for manual resetting or loosening of the locking plate 123.
In another embodiment, the elastic member 124 is a tension spring. When the first locking portion 131 is engaged with the second locking portion 132, the elastic member 124 is in a slightly stretched state or a normal state. When the locking plate 123 is driven manually to move up relative to the main body 121, the elastic member 124 is stretched. After the locking plate 123 is released, the locking plate 123 is automatically reset by the resilience of the elastic member 124.

When the first sliding block 23 is placed in the first sliding groove 24, the second positioning convex edge 23a is simultaneously placed in the first sliding groove 24. The first positioning convex edge 24a is configured to abut against the second positioning convex edge 23a, so that the second positioning convex edge 23a is kept in the first sliding groove 24, and then the first mounting base 21 is limited, so as to prevent the first mounting base 21 from disengaging from the second mounting base 22 during the sliding process.
More specifically, the pressing member 27 is provided with a limiting strip 27a. When the third engaging portion 25 on the pressing member 27 slides in the accommodating groove 22a of the second mounting base 22, after the limiting strip 27a is in contact with an inner surface of the receiving groove 22a, the pressing member 27 cannot continue to move along the vertical direction, so that the first mounting base 21 and the second mounting base 22 can slide relative to each other within a preset range.
Specifically, the third engaging portion 25 is provided with a rack, and the fourth engaging portion 26 is provided with a strip-shaped wedge block configured to be engaged with the rack. Alternatively, the third engaging portion 25 is provided with the strip-shaped wedge block, and the fourth engaging portion 26 is provided with the rack configured to be engaged with the strip-shaped wedge block. A shape of the strip-shaped wedge is adapted to the rack, and the strip-shaped wedge is engaged in a groove formed between adjacent two teeth of the rack. The strip-shaped wedge is engaged at different positions of the rack, so that the first mounting base 21 or the second connecting structure 50 can be fixed at different positions, and the height of the controller housing 60 can be adjusted, so as to adapt to different types of shutter systems.

The third connector 51 is provided on one of the fixing portions of the second connecting structure 50 and is provided towards the through groove 72 of the cover plate 70. The third connector 51 is electrically connected to a rechargeable battery through a wire. The rechargeable battery is arranged in the controller housing 60 and is electrically connected to the driving mechanism. The driving mechanism is arranged in the controller housing 60 and is electrically connected to the transmission mechanism. The driving mechanism is configured to drive the transmission mechanism to move. The driving mechanism may be a motor, and the transmission mechanism transmits the power of the driving mechanism to the operating rod 11. Since the third connector 51 is added, the shutter controller can be plugged and charged freely through the solar power generation assembly or the adapter, and the charging process is convenient.
In this embodiment, as shown in
In another embodiment (i.e., Embodiment 2), the difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 lies mainly in that: the second connecting structure 50 is provided with a first engaging portion, and the mounting base 20 is provided with a second engaging portion. When the second engaging portion is engaged with the first engaging portion, the position of the second connecting structure 50 is fixed.
In this embodiment, the shutter controller further includes the pressing member 27 connected to the second connecting structure 50. By pressing the pressing member 27, the first engaging portion can be moved away from the second engaging portion, so that the second connecting structure 50 can move up and down relative to the fixed mounting surface.
Specifically, the first engaging portion is provided with a rack, the second engaging portion is provided with a strip-shaped wedge block configured to be engaged with the rack. Alternatively, the first engaging portion is provided with the strip-shaped wedge block, and the second engaging portion is provided with a rack configured to be engaged with the strip-shaped wedge block. A shape of the strip-shaped wedge is adapted to the rack. The strip-shaped wedge is engaged at different positions of the rack, so that the second connecting structure can be fixed at different positions.
The structure of the rest of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1, and the features not explained in this embodiment are used as explained in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated herein.
