Embodiment
Devices of the Fig. 1 in the form of 10 show structure diagram.Device includes main body 12 and detachable hair brush 14.Hair brush is in itself Be it is conventional and can have various bristles arrangement and construct.In the embodiment shown, brush head passes through by driving unit The motor 16 of 18 controls is driven in oscillating fashion.Motor and driving unit can take various arrangements.No. 7,157,816 Arrangement as one in many arrangements is shown in United States Patent (USP).In one embodiment, driving unit is usually by can Rechargeable battery 20 is powered, it can be by solar recharging.In general, device includes one or more power supplys.Power supply it is non- Limitative examples include one or more button cells, chemical cell, fuel cell, storage battery, lithium ion battery, microelectronics patch Piece (micro-electric patch), nickel metal hydride battery, smee cell, capacitor, ultracapacitor (super- Capacitors), film storage battery, ultracapacitor (ultra-capacitors), zinc-air battery etc..Power supply it is other Non-limiting examples include one or more generators (such as generator (electrical generator), thermal energy electric energy hair Motor, mechanical energy electric energy generator, microgenerator, nano generator etc.), such as, thermoelectric generator, piezo-electric generating Machine, electromechanical generator etc..In one embodiment, power supply includes one or more minicells, printing minicell, film Battery, fuel cell (such as biological fuel cell, chemical fuel cell etc.) etc., including replaceable alkaline battery.
Device is controlled by ON/22.In the embodiment shown, brush head is moved with the frequency in the range of 70-115Hz It is dynamic, but this can change.Preferable amplitude is 10-19 ° of peak-to-peak value, and duty cycle is about 40%, but these values can also change Become.Before use device solution twines hair, determine by combing the load on the applying hair to motor untied.This generates with The study baseline (learned baseline) of operation is twined in solution.It is single that the load value according to frequency and amplitude is stored in control In first processor.
After this learning procedure, the brush that solution twines is now ready for using.When brush is moved through hair, lead to Change of the measurement relative to the load condition of the motor of baseline load is crossed, brush identification is tangled.The change of this load usually will Action/behavior of change system.Measurement can be completed by various arrangements.One preferably is arranged as such as compiling by optics The change of the armature portion of code device measurement motor or the amplitude of end effector, as shown in 24 in Fig. 1.Optical encoder 24 is logical Often can be in the inside of crust of the device, but it can also be exterior.It by determine infrared LED lamp or multiple lamps whether by Block or be not blocked and carry out measurement amplitude, this depends on used specific arrangement.In general, in order to ensure just running into actual twine Knot, it is necessary to specific operation circulation number is verified to amplitude variations, often more than once, and usually up to five times, although can make Changed with one cycle.
Although optical encoder is a preferable arrangement, other motor amplitude sensors can be used, including Hall effect sensor for the amplitude variations for determining armature.Other possible arrangements are included when the close switch of armature The magnetic switch being activated during position.It can also use physical contact switch.
In addition to armature amplitude variations, other arrangements are can also use to determine due to loading change caused by entanglement, Counter electromotive force including measurement motor is with definite amplitude or velocity variations.Further, can be with depending on specific load condition The difference of the audio tones (audio tone) produced by device is measured using audio pickup component.All above-mentioned measurements are set The change of motor operation or the change of sound are determined when standby/technology is both for the load condition that instruction entanglement is run into when brush head. Identify that entanglement is important exactly relative to the Hair setting state of baseline (non-entanglement).
Information from amplitude sensor 24 is applied to control unit (processor) 28, which is programmed to Identification is tangled, such as when armature amplitude reduces pre-selected amount.This amount may change, but should securely enough to indicate Tangle.For example, this may reduce the amplitude of 10-20%.
When tangling identified, processor is then by adjustment driving unit 18 to solve to tangle.This can be in many ways Complete.A kind of method will change electric machine frequency.This change of frequency will continue until that hair is twined by solution, or the change of frequency Change the conversion of the burst, sometimes referred to as frequency that can be 5-10 cycle, or increase or reduction.The change of frequency will Corresponding to new system load and increase amplitude.For example, the change of frequency can be between original frequency ± 50Hz In the range of value.Alternatively, it can be adjusted by the change of duty cycle, in the scope of original change in duty cycle ± 25% It is interior.Further, solution, which twines lubricant, to be discharged into brush head 14 from distributor 36.The change of duty cycle or frequency can be by group Close, and can also be used in combination with release lubricant.
Functional flow diagram is shown in Fig. 2, the change of its change based on motor load and subsequent motor action/behavior Change.In operation, as indicated in block 34, opening device, and as shown in square frame 36A, with device combing hair in a usual manner. In square frame 37, when combing the hair untied, normal motor load is determined and stored.After the initial step, dress is used Combing hair is put, and if device does not run into entanglement, square frame 38, continues to comb, completed until in 36B.At this time, device exists Closed at 40.If running into entanglement at 41, the behavior of brush will change, and the amplitude of usual brush is by due to the increase of load And reduce, as indicated in block 42.Sensor such as optical encoder, will sense the reduction of amplitude as shown in block 44.Such as square frame Shown in 46, processor will adjust drive waveforms in a manner of frequency, voltage, pulse width etc. are some, and/or such as the institute of square frame 48 Show, the fluid that can in addition cause device to be twined by brush release solution.
Fig. 3 A show the device 52 with vibration brush head 54, close to the entanglement 56 in hair 5.Fig. 3 B show for example, by Identify that the change of amplitude carrys out the operation device at entanglement when running into entanglement, and then change the action of motor and thus change The action of brush head.Entanglement is released, as shown in square frame 58 and Fig. 3 C.When entanglement is released, since the change of load (subtracts It is small), the amplitude of brush will change (usually increase), as shown in block 60.As illustrated in block 62, the change of this amplitude will be detected Change.Motor driver by the change for identifying amplitude and is reset to original waveform by processor, as indicated in block 64.In addition, profit Any release of lubrication prescription will be all terminated.
At this time, user will continue combing hair, as shown in square frame 36B.When completing to comb, device is closed, such as square frame 40 It is shown.
The flow chart of Fig. 2 represents the functional steps when device runs into entanglement.
Although the preferred embodiment of the present invention is had been disclosed for for illustrative purposes it should be appreciated that In the case of not departing from the spirit of the invention being defined by the below claims, various changes can be introduced in embodiments Change, change and replace.
