Definitions

  • the present invention regards some improved means for setting with great precision the values of certain quantities that are selected to determine the operation of an appliance of general type.
  • the invention also regards a process for using correctly and efficiently said improved means of selection.
  • a cooking oven comprises a cooking chamber, means of actuating and controlling the operating cycle, means for processing the signals received by said data control and storage means, in which are arranged selection devices, each of which is associated with a specific control variable, or control quantity as it will be referred to hereafter, which can be selected independently from among a plurality of different states or quantitative values that can be determined independently, and each combination of the distinct states of said quantities is associated with a predetermined set of machine instructions in said data storage means, suitable to operate on respective operating devices of the appliance.
  • This type of oven is provided with one or more display or viewing devices to view a plurality of said control quantities, and of the states or values respectively selected.
  • control devices for selecting control quantities and their respective states or values can be materially realized with various means known in the art, such as switches, commutators, linear position controls, contact and capacitive (touch control) devices, etc.
  • Patent GB 2 443 296 discloses a manner of determining a value of a control quantity by acting on a control device of capacitive type, arranged in a closed and circular perimeter. This control allows the possibility that when an object, for example a finger, is placed on a definite position of said perimeter, a value is selected that corresponds bi-uniquely to that given position. Furthermore, the movement of the finger on the surface corresponding to said perimeter makes it possible to have:
  • the commutation between the two previous functions takes place only when the speed of the finger moving on said perimeter exceeds a preset value.
  • Patent WO 03/088176 discloses the use of a control of capacitive or touch control type that operates on a circular perimeter to modify the insertion of preferred values, relative to a given control quantity, in which the setting of the preset value is determined not by the position of the object, or the user's finger, on the surface that contains said circular perimeter, but only by the movement of the finger.
  • Such movement is detected in a manner independent of the initial and final position of the finger, but the extent of such movement is detected and calculated.
  • This appliance must also be able to guarantee the operation in a controllable mode on a plurality of control quantities that must also be able at the same time to operate on the working cycle.
  • said appliance must be able to be controlled in a simple and immediate mode, and must be made economically using the means available in the art.
  • a food cooking oven includes:
  • said control means also include a portion 3 of the external surface of said door, formed like a closed, preferably circular perimeter with which are associated, in the area behind said portion 3, a plurality of capacitive sensors.
  • Said capacitive sensors and said control and processing means are suitable to sense the movement of an object, typically a finger 4 of an operator of said oven, that moves by sliding on said circular portion 3, and said control means are suitable to process a display signal according to a relation, with respect to the speed of movement of said finger on said portion 3, as follows:
  • Said display signal consists of a numerical value generated by said control and processing means according to the prior art, and may vary from a minimum preset value "Val.min” to a maximum preset value "Val.max”.
  • a Cartesian plane is shown in which the axis of abscissas represents, on an arbitrary scale, the speed of angular or perimetric movement "Vmov", and naturally in the same sense the point of contact 5 of the finger 4 on the circular portion 3.
  • the speed of change "Vvis" of the numerical value on the display 2 does not correspond linearly with the speed of movement of the finger on said portion 3, but changes according to a relation that changes the speed Vvis with an increment greater than the increment of Vmov.
  • the graph that represents such variation is a continually rising curve "C”, showing a concavity facing upward, that is, toward the axis of the ordinates that represents the "Vvis", or the speed of change of the value shown in the display 2.
  • Fig. 3 shows the relation between said "V.mov” shown in abscissa, and the time “T.vis” shown in ordinate, where said “T.vis” indicates in an arbitrary scale the time taken by the display 2 to pass from displaying the minimum value of the speed of display to the relative maximum value.
  • the figures show that on the door 1 there is an external area 6 in which various items are shown.
  • said area 6 is in fact just an area, and that it does not necessarily have to be drawn or delimited by specific elements or with particular graphics.
  • the oven of the present invention is provided with programming control devices, and/or devices displaying the values of the following quantities:
  • buttons 14 and 15 are associated with a single display 10, whereas the control buttons 16 and 17 are associated with the display 11.
  • a precise instruction is also transmitted at the same time to said processing and control means to activate that or those functions of the oven, or the relative operating devices, that bring the oven itself to reach and maintain the selected value for the newly inserted quantity; in fact, to end this programming phase, the command is completed and ended by acting, preferably again by capacitive contact, on the areola 19 centred in said portion of surface 3 and that corresponds to the confirm button, or operating instruction send button (corresponding, for example, to the "enter" button).
  • a third display 12 to which is associated a respective touch control device 20; by selecting the latter, the user can adjust the level of moisture introduced through the usual touch control device on said superficial portion 3, and at the same time monitor the value set on the relative said third display 12.
  • control panel has a fourth display window, indicated with No. 13, and another single and independent control device indicated by No. 18, marked also with letter "M”, for "MENU”.
  • Said control device 18 makes it possible to modify in cascade, according to a universally used well-known selection model (as for example in the insertion of a selection command for subsequent steps in a computer application program), both the kind of food that is subjected to cooking and, for the kind of food selected, the specific type of food.
  • each of said selections can be read in the display 13.
  • control on the capacitive control portion 3 operates as a sequencer, in the sense that it makes it possible to have a fast scroll in a succession of commands and subcommands, which, once chosen, are selected and confirmed with the activation of said confirm command 19.
  • a further improvement consists of the fact that said external area 6, which contains and delimits the control panel including the displays and the control devices, is substantially only a region limited by the area of the external surface of the whole door 1.
  • This region is made up of a single plate of glass or of a transparent material, and inside said area 6 that is a region delimited in said plate, are formed and arranged, with known methods, said displays 10-13 and said control devices 14-18, as well as said portion 3 that functions as a control and selection (scrolling) device.
