Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren und eine Anordnung für die Programmeingabe und Programmsteuerung von Haushaltsgeräten, wie Wäschebehandlungs- und Geschirrspülmaschinen, mit einer Programmeingabevorrichtung, bei der ein anwählbares Hauptprogramm mittels Drehwahlschalter und weitere Zusatzfunktionen mittels Drucktastenschalter einstellbar sind, und mit einer Mikrocomputersteuerung, durch die der Programmablauf der Maschine gesteuert wird.The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for the program input and program control of household appliances, such as laundry and dishwashing machines, with a program input device in which a selectable main program can be set by means of a rotary selector switch and further additional functions by means of push-button switches, and with a microcomputer control by means of which the program sequence of the machine is controlled.

Es sind Waschmaschinen bekannt, bei denen die Programmeingabe und die Programmsteuerung nach dem vorstehend beschriebenen Prinzip ausgebildet sind (DE-A-35 42 503). Diese in der Praxis realisierten Anordnungen zur Programmeingabe und Programmsteuerung von Waschmaschinen besitzen den Vorteil, daß für die Anwahl eines durchzuführenden Waschprogrammes nur wenige Eingabefunktionen ausgeführt werden müssen. Trotzdem wird es von manchen Benutzern noch als nachteilig empfunden, daß bei der Vielzahl der in gewünschter Weise angebotenen Zusatzfunktionen, wie Sparprogramme, Schongangprogramme und dgl., doch noch eine ganze Reihe von Einstellungen vorgenommen werden müssen.Washing machines are known in which the program input and the program control are designed according to the principle described above (DE-A-35 42 503). These arrangements for program input and program control of washing machines which have been implemented in practice have the advantage that only a few input functions have to be carried out for the selection of a washing program to be carried out. Nevertheless, some users still find it disadvantageous that with the large number of additional functions offered in the desired manner, such as economy programs, gentle programs and the like, a whole series of settings still have to be made.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren und eine Anordnung gemäß der eingangs beschriebenen Art so weiterzubilden, daß dem Benutzer weitere Bedienungsvorteile und Vereinfachungen bei der Programmwahl angeboten werden.The invention has for its object to develop a method and an arrangement according to the type described above so that the user further operating advantages and simplifications in the choice of program are offered.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 1 erzielt. Eine erfindungsgemäß aufgebaute Anordnung ergibt sich aus Anspruch 4. Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen und Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen dargelegt.This object is achieved by a method according to claim 1. An arrangement constructed according to the invention results from claim 4. Expedient further developments and refinements of the invention are set out in the subclaims.

Bei den nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren ausgebildeten Haushaltsgeräten, wie insbesondere Waschmaschinen, erhält der Benutzer den Vorteil, daß er sich individuell ein Waschprogramm mit fest zugehörigen Zusatzfunktionen vorprogrammieren kann, welches dann im alltäglichen Gebrauch in der Regel nur noch mit einem einzigen Einstellvorgang in Betrieb gesetzt werden kann. Dadurch wird insgesamt eine hohe Bedienungsfreundlichkeit erzielt und die Gefahr von Irrtümern bei der Programmeinstellung reduziert.With the household appliances designed according to the method of the invention, such as washing machines in particular, the user has the advantage that he can individually pre-program a washing program with permanently associated additional functions, which are then generally only put into operation in everyday use with a single setting operation can. As a result, a high level of user-friendliness is achieved and the risk of errors when setting the program is reduced.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen rein schematisch dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is shown purely schematically in the drawings.

Die Figur 1 zeigt eine Waschmaschine in Frontansicht, Figur 2 in schematisierter Blockschaltbild-Darstellung die Programmeingabevorrichtung der Waschmaschine mit der Mikrocomputer-Steuereinheit.1 shows a washing machine in front view, FIG. 2 shows a schematic block diagram of the program input device of the washing machine with the microcomputer control unit.

In der Figur 1 ist eine Waschmaschine (1) mit ihrer Frontseite dargestellt. Das Bedienfeld (2) befindet sich im oberen Bereich der Maschine und besitzt einen Drehwahlschalter (3) und mehrere Drucktastenschalter (4). Über die Programmanzeigeeinrichtung (9) wird der augenblickliche Programmstand angezeigt.1 shows a washing machine (1) with its front side. The control panel (2) is located in the upper area of the machine and has a rotary selector switch (3) and several push button switches (4). The current program status is displayed via the program display device (9).

In der Figur 2 sind diese Bedienungselemente in vergrößerter Form gezeigt. Mit dem Drehwahlschalter (3) wird das durchzuführende Hauptprogramm für den Waschvorgang nach Wäscheart und Temperatur ausgewählt. Weitere Zusatzfunktionen sind durch nichtrastend ausgebildete Drucktastenschalter (4) anwählbar. Als Drucktastenschalter kommen auch sog. Kurzhub- bzw. Folientastenschalter in Betracht.These operating elements are shown in an enlarged form in FIG. The main program to be carried out for the washing process is selected according to the type of laundry and temperature using the rotary selector switch (3). Further additional functions can be selected using non-latching pushbutton switches (4). So-called short-stroke or membrane key switches can also be considered as push-button switches.

Die den Drucktastenschaltern (4) zugeordneten Anzeigeelemente (5), hier in Form von LEDs, signalisieren die aktivierte Zusatzfunktion. Die Eingabe- und Anzeigeelemente stehen über entsprechende Steuerleitungen (6) mit einer Mikrocomputersteuerung (7) in Verbindung. Die Mikrocomputersteuerung (7) weist dabei einen nichtflüchtigen Speicher (8), ein sog. non volatile ram, auf.The display elements (5) assigned to the pushbutton switches (4), here in the form of LEDs, signalize the activated additional function. The input and display elements are connected to a microcomputer control (7) via corresponding control lines (6). The microcomputer controller (7) has a non-volatile memory (8), a so-called non-volatile ram.

Die Funktion der gezeigten Anordnung ist wie folgt:

  • Nach der Einstellung des Hauptprogrammes mittels des Drehwahlschalters (3) kann der Benutzer nach seinen individuellen Wünschen die Zusatzfunktionen über die nichtrastenden Drucktastenschalter (4) auswählen. Die Anwahl wird über die den Drucktastenschaltern (4) zugeordneten Anzeige-LEDs (5) quittiert. In dieser Form bleiben dann die Zusatzfunktionen in dem nichtflüchtigen Speicher (8) erhalten und werden bei jedem neuen Programmstart immer wieder automatisch für das jeweils ausgewählte Hauptprogramm aktiviert. Dadurch benötigt der Benutzer nur noch eine einzige Einstellung am Drehwahlschalter (3). Das jeweils dazu ablaufende Zusatzprogramm bekommt er durch die Anzeige-LEDs (5) zur Kontrolle angezeigt. Sollte er einmal die Zusatzfunktionen verändern wollen, kann er durch Betätigung des jeweiligen Drucktastenschalters (4) die Funktion aufheben bzw. wieder neu setzen oder über die Löschtaste (10) die vorgewählten Zusatzfunktionen insgesamt löschen und eine neue Auswahl vornehmen. Natürlich wäre es hier auch alternativ möglich, immer nur vorbestimmte Zusatzfunktionen automatisch zu aktivieren, während dann noch weitere Varianten zuwählbar bleiben.
The function of the arrangement shown is as follows:
  • After setting the main program using the rotary selector switch (3), the user can select the additional functions according to his individual wishes using the non-latching pushbutton switches (4). The selection is acknowledged via the display LEDs (5) assigned to the pushbutton switches (4). In this form, the additional functions are retained in the non-volatile memory (8) and are automatically activated again and again for each selected main program each time the program is started. As a result, the user only needs a single setting on the rotary selector switch (3). The additional program that is running for this is indicated by the display LEDs (5) for checking. If he wants to change the additional functions, he can cancel or reset the function by pressing the respective pushbutton switch (4) or delete the preselected additional functions altogether and make a new selection using the delete key (10). Of course, it would also be possible as an alternative here to automatically activate only predetermined additional functions, while then further variants can still be selected.

Die Zusatzfunktionen werden in sinnvoller Weise derart verknüpft, daß nur zweckmäßige und zulässige Programmgestaltungen möglich sind.The additional functions are logically linked in such a way that only appropriate and permissible program designs are possible.
