Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a household appliance series according to the preamble of patent claim 1, as well as a method according to the preamble of patent claim 10.
  • An operating and display field has six selection positions in an arrangement of two rows of three column-by-group grouped positions. These selection positions serve to form selection elements for the selection of individual cooking zones on the cooktop of the cooktop.
  • the basic layout also has an option position for forming a further selection element or an adjustment element for making operating settings.
  • the invention has for its object to improve the said prior art.
  • the number of touch sensors associated with the fixed group of touch sensors may vary depending on the method of operation.
  • the fixed group of touch sensors is generated within a set in the board layout, contiguous assembly field by one of the desired operating method corresponding equipment with touch sensors.
  • the fixed group of touch sensors comprises at least two touch sensors, which are the same equipped in all control units.
  • the fixed group of touch sensors is assigned an evaluation algorithm by a control unit. Unnecessary touch sensors within the assembly field are not subject to the evaluation algorithm and can be assigned a different function if required. Different evaluation algorithms are understood to mean that at least the signals of two touch sensors are detected by the control unit for setting the value of the operating parameter, the signals being evaluated differently depending on the operating unit.
  • a same sequence of movements of a finger of a user of household appliances over the group of touch sensors usually causes a different setting of the operating parameter depending on the evaluation algorithm used.
  • the value setting of the different operating units follows different operating logics.
  • an evaluation algorithm comprises a slide operation.
  • the value adjustment of the operating parameter is effected by sweeping over several touch sensors by means of a finger of the user of the household appliance.
  • the evaluation algorithm of the slide operation can be designed, for example, such that, when sweeping in one direction, the value of the operating parameter is increased step by step and, when it is swept in the other direction, it is gradually lowered. A single sweep to the last sensor position causes the maximum setting for the operating parameter.
  • the evaluation algorithm for the slide operation for example, the absolute Determine finger position and specify when putting the finger an operating parameter value as the starting value corresponding to the position of the finger relative to the arrangement of the group of touch sensors.
  • the evaluation algorithm can also be designed in such a way that a multiple sweep of the touch sensors is required until an end value of the operating parameter is reached.
  • the evaluation algorithm can, for example, also determine contact positions between the touch sensors and use them to increase the value.
  • an evaluation algorithm comprises a scrolling operation.
  • a sweeping of the touch sensors causes a gradual change of the operating parameter, whereby the stepwise change of the operating parameter continues even after sweeping the touch sensors with steadily decreasing speed in a follow-up time.
  • the speed of a change in the value of the operating parameter is preferably dependent on a sweep speed of the touch sensors. This may also apply for the duration of the follow-up time. Depending on the direction of the sweep, a current operating parameter value can be increased or decreased.
  • sweeping the sensors from left to right causes an increase in the operating parameter value and, in turn, sweeping from right to left causes a decrease in the operating parameter value. It is not absolutely necessary that all touch sensors are covered. Even when sweeping only a portion of the touch sensors, a corresponding change in the operating parameter value is initiated by evaluating the sweeping speed and the sweeping direction.
  • an evaluation algorithm comprises an up / down operation.
  • Such up / down operation can be implemented, for example, by two touch sensors that form the fixed group of touch sensors.
  • one touch sensor corresponds to a plus touch panel and the other touch sensor corresponds to a minus touch panel on a control panel of the home appliance.
  • the touch of the plus touchpad causes an increase in the operating parameter value and, correspondingly, a touch of the minus touchpad, a decrease in the operating parameter value.
  • two touch sensors for the plus touch panel and two touch sensors for the minus touch panel can be used.
  • a corresponding evaluation algorithm it is also possible to define an arbitrary position between the two touch sensors as a circular touch field, which can be recognized by a corresponding printing on the control panel of the household appliance for a user eg as a plus touch panel.
  • the contact fields visible to the user can thus be arranged laterally offset relative to the center of the equipped touch sensors with respect to their center.
  • Such up / down operation, or plus / minus operation is used in particular for less expensive appliances of the household appliance series.
  • an evaluation algorithm comprises a direct-dial operation.
  • ten touch sensors form the fixed group of touch sensors.
  • a touch of a touch sensor, or an associated Bermmfeldes is evaluated so that it corresponds to a set value, for. corresponds to a power level from zero to nine.
  • Each touch sensor is assigned a discrete power level. The power level can be selected directly by activating or tapping the touch sensors or the associated touch fields.
  • the evaluation algorithm recognizes a contact position between the touch sensors and thus more operating parameter graduations can be selected than are fitted to the fixed group of contact sensors belonging to touch sensors.
  • power levels are thus adjustable, for example, without zero position, which are displayed for the user of the household appliance by a corresponding print on the control panel of the household appliance.
  • Such a value adjustment of the operating parameter is comfortable in operation and is preferably used in high-priced devices of the household appliance series.
  • annular arrangement of the group of touch sensors a space-saving arrangement, as well as the generation of visually appealing control units is possible.
  • An annular arrangement also allows a display unit located within the ring, which makes a direct reference to the touch sensors for the user of the household appliance.
  • the contact sensors belonging to the fixed group each have the same distances from each other. This allows the formation of visually appealing operating units, as well as a high variability with regard to the use of different evaluation algorithms. For example, it is possible to produce differently comfortable operating units with regard to a slide operation. In a less expensive control unit only every second position of the assembly field can be equipped with a touch sensor, and thus a less finely resolved slide control panel can be created.
  • the group of touch sensors comprises at least ten positions that can be fitted in the board layout. This results in particular advantages for a slide operation, or for a direct dial operation with respect to a higher resolution.
  • the invention relates to a method for producing differently-to-use household appliances, wherein for differentiation in the operation of a specified group of touch sensors each different evaluation algorithms are assigned.
  • FIG. 1 shown, simplified illustrated circuit board layout 2 a hob series, a circuit board 4 with placement positions 6a'- 6f 'for touch sensors 6a - 6f (in Fig. 1 not shown), as well as placement positions 8a'-8e 'for displays 8a-8e (in Fig. 1 not shown).
  • An assembly field 9 is arranged centrally on a lower edge of the board 4. Within the assembly field 9 are those of a fixed group of touch sensors 10 (in Fig. 1 not shown) assignable 12 mounting positions 10 'arranged.
  • An insertion position 10 ' consists of a circular surface which is traversed by conductor tracks and thereby acts as a sensor surface.
  • a conductive rubber is adhered, which produces a conductive connection between the sensor surface and the underside of a cooktop plate made of glass ceramic (not shown).
  • a Bermmfeld the touch sensor results from the accessible to the user of the hob top of the hob plate.
  • the Bermmfelder are characterized by a corresponding print on the top of the hob plate.
  • electronic components (not shown) are soldered for each touch sensor near the respective mounting position 10 '.
  • the placement positions 10 'and accordingly the touch sensors 10 each have an equal distance a to each other and are electrically connected to a control unit (not shown).
  • the control unit has a microcontroller which assigns different evaluation algorithms to the group of touch sensors 10, depending on the operating unit.
  • the board layout 2 also includes further mounting positions for electronic components, as well as tracks, which in the Fig. 1 are not shown.
  • the board layout 2 allows different mounting variants of the board 4, which are used in the different control units of the hob series.
  • the cooktop range thus comprises cooktops whose operation is based on different operating concepts.

  • other types of sensors such as optical sensors can be used.
  • the hobs of the hob series each have four cooking zones, of which the left rear by the touch sensor 6a ( Fig. 2 ) is activated and a set power level is displayed in the display 8a. Accordingly, touch sensor 6b and display 8b are provided for the rear right cooking zone. The front left cooking zone is associated with the touch sensor 6c and the display 8c. For the right front cooking zone, the touch sensor 6d and the display 8d are provided. An adjustment of the power of the cooking zone selected via the touch sensors 6a to 6d via the group of touch sensors 10. An additional, arranged on the board 4 touch sensor 6e is designed to activate a timer operation whose value is also adjustable via the group of touch sensors 10. A corresponding display 8e displays the current timer value as a count-down.
  • another touch sensor 6f is arranged, which is provided for switching on or off the corresponding hob.
  • the board layout 2 itself is the same for all operating units. Only through the use of different evaluation algorithms and by different placement of the board 4, different operating units result. In order to provide a greater variety of variants of the different operating units, alternative positions (not shown) are provided for the touch sensors 6a to 6f, as well as for the displays 8a to 8d on the board layout.
  • This control unit enables direct dial operation, in which the individual values of the operating parameter can be selected directly.
  • the assembly field 9 which comprises a total of twelve placement positions 10 ', ten placement positions 10' are equipped with touch sensors. These ten touch sensors form the group of touch sensors 10. These are arranged centrally in the assembly field 9, so that the first and the last position of the assembly field 9 are not populated.
  • the ten touch sensors are associated in ascending order with numerals from zero to nine, which are formed as printing on the top of the hob plate (not shown) of the associated hob. These numbers correspond to those for the individual cooking zones selectable power levels.
  • the evaluation algorithm is designed such that a contact between two digits corresponds to an intermediate power stage, which is represented in the associated display as the next lower power level in conjunction with a dot.
  • a time for the timer which is displayed as a countdown in the display 8e, can be entered for the currently activated cooking zone via the group of touch sensors 10.
  • the selection of the operating parameter value takes place in the case of direct-dial operation by touching the respective number printed on the upper side of the hob plate.
  • a second assembly of the board 4 for one of the four different operating units is in Fig. 3 shown.
  • the assembly field 9 is equipped with twelve touch sensors. These form the group of touch sensors 10.
  • the value setting of an operating parameter such. B. a power level takes place in this operating unit by sweeping the group of touch sensors 10 (or the arranged above the cooktop panel) with a finger.
  • a sweeping of the arranged in a line group of touch sensors 10 to the right causes an increase in the operating parameter value.
  • a decrease in the operating parameter value results in a movement running from right to left.
  • a single sweep of all touch sensors of the group of touch sensors 10 to the right causes an adjustment of the maximum value of the operating parameter.
  • the timer is also adjustable.
  • a third assembly variant of the board 4 for one of four different operating units shows Fig. 4 , This operating unit is set up for UP / DOWN operation.
  • This operating unit is set up for UP / DOWN operation.
  • two sensors are fitted for value adjustment by means of the up / down operation, which form the group of touch sensors 10.

  • the assembly field 9 is equipped with this control unit at six immediately adjacent positions with touch sensors.
  • These six touch sensors form the group of touch sensors 10.
  • the group of touch sensors 10 initially behaves similarly to the slide operation. However, a significant difference is a tracking effect, which is activated when the touch sensors are swept over.
  • the value adjustment by means of the group of touch sensors 10 behaves like a heavy rotating wheel by the corresponding evaluation algorithm, which continues to run after being turned on due to its inertia and only comes to a standstill after some time. As a result, as long as it turns, the values of the operating parameter are increased or decreased.
  • a follow-up time is controllable by a sweep speed. The faster the sweep, the longer the resulting lag time.
