Fig. 5 is the circuit diagram of the testing circuit of illustration Fig. 4.With reference to figure 5, testing circuit 80 comprises diode D1, is used for applying just (+) voltage from the input voltage of node N1; Resistance R 1 is used to reduce the input voltage from node N1; Diode D2 and capacitor C1 are used to prevent to be included in the noise of the input voltage of the input 11 that imposes on photoelectrical coupler PC and 12; Photoelectrical coupler PC, according to input voltage connection/cut-out, with resistance R 2 and capacitor C2, be connected to the output 01 of photoelectrical coupler PC, be used for providing the different voltage waveform that is lower than reference voltage Vref according to connection/cut-out of photoelectrical coupler PC, this reference voltage Vref is the DC voltage of microcomputer 90.Reference voltage Vref is used as the driving voltage of microcomputer 90 in the circuit that comprises microcomputer 90.Omitted the explanation that produces the power subsystem of reference voltage Vref.The those of ordinary skill of suitable application area of the present invention can readily understand the generation of reference voltage Vref.
For example, when public power was AC 240V, potential difference approximately was 240V between node N1 and N2.If this voltage imposes on photoelectrical coupler PC, then may damage photoelectrical coupler PC.Provide resistance R 1 input voltage is reduced to tens volts.
If between node N1 and N2, have potential difference, that is,, then impose on the input of photoelectrical coupler PC corresponding to the voltage of potential difference if the first thermostatic chamber TS1 and the second thermostatic chamber TS2 are switched to power supply to heater 30.Because voltage is AC voltage, so the interior lights diode is luminous according to the cycle of voltage, and the diode connection/cut-out of light receiving unit, be used for square wave is imposed on microcomputer 90.If there is not potential difference between node N1 and N2, that is, if the first thermostatic chamber TS1 and the second thermostatic chamber TS2 cut off and power supply do not supplied with heater 30, then the input of testing circuit 80 has same potential.Therefore, the interior lights diode is not luminous, and cuts off as the diode of light receiving unit, is used for imposing on microcomputer 90 continuously with the approaching dc voltage waveform of reference voltage Vref.
Fig. 6 and 7 is curve maps that the output waveform of testing circuit is shown.As shown in Figure 6, when the first thermostatic chamber TS1 and the second thermostatic chamber TS2 connect, apply heater 30 as the public power of AC voltage.The voltage difference that size equates with public power produces between node N1 and N2.Photoelectrical coupler PC connects owing to voltage is different.Because public power is an AC voltage,, thus the square wave littler than reference voltage Vref imposed on microcomputer 90 so photoelectrical coupler PC connected repeatedly/cuts off according to the cycle of public power.
As shown in Figure 7, when the first thermostatic chamber TS1 or second thermostatic chamber TS2 cut-out, power supply is not supplied to heater 30.Node N1 has identical current potential with N2.Therefore, photoelectrical coupler PC cuts off always, will impose on microcomputer 90 with the dc voltage (for example, high signal) that reference voltage Vref is similar to thus.
Therefore, microcomputer 90 can calculate the power supply time to chopping of heater 30 of the dissengaged positions of the first thermostatic chamber TS1 and the second thermostatic chamber TS2 according to the waveform of the dc voltage that applies.
Fig. 8 is the curve map of connection/cut-out that the microcomputer identification of Fig. 5 is shown.In Fig. 8, R represents the diameter of blast pipe 50, and the unit of use is an inch.That is, when the diameter of blast pipe 50 was R (2.0), R (2.3), R (2.625), R (2.88) and R (3.0), microcomputer 90 imposed on the connection/cut-out of the power supply of heater 30 according to the signal identification from the testing circuit 80 of Fig. 6 and 7.If diameter is big, then the state of ventilating duct (chocking-up degree or stop up advance degree) is light, and if diameter is little, then the state of ventilating duct (chocking-up degree or stop up advance degree) is serious.
The method that suggestion uses the dissengaged positions inspection by switch SW to impose on the power supply point first break time of heater 30 is checked the state of ventilating duct.
Put the comparative result of putting t5 first break time of t4 and R (2.625) according to first break time of putting t3, R (2.0) first break time of putting t2, R (1.5) first break time of putting t1, R (1.0) first break time of R (0), this is more little than minor diameter, and first dissengaged positions makes progress slowly more.When diameter hour, the gas flow of discharging by ventilating duct (being specially blast pipe 50) reduces, and the environment temperature of temperature sensor 82 slowly raises.In this experiment, diameter is corresponding to the blocked state of ventilating duct.If diameter is big, then ventilating duct stops up lessly, and if diameter is little, then ventilating duct stops up manyly.As mentioned above, microcomputer 90 can be checked according to the recognition data of connection/cut-out curve map of for example Fig. 8 and put the state of judging ventilating duct first break time.
The blocked state of ventilating duct is judged in suggestion with the method for connection/cut-out dutycycle of calculating power supply.In this embodiment, can use one of them or both that connect dutycycle (x '/y ') and cut-out dutycycle (z '/y ').Wherein, explain cutting off dutycycle (z '/y ').
The cut-out dutycycle of R (2.0) is 0.48 (connection dutycycle wherein is 0.52), the cut-out dutycycle of R (2.3) is 0.32 (connection dutycycle wherein is 0.68), the dutycycle of closing R (2.625) is 0.26 (connection dutycycle wherein is 0.74), the cut-out dutycycle of R (2.88) is 0.13 (connection dutycycle wherein is 0.87), and the cut-out dutycycle of R (3.0) is 0 (connection dutycycle wherein is 1).That is, diameter is more little, and it is high more to cut off dutycycle.Connecting dutycycle increases relatively.Therefore, microcomputer 90 can be judged ventilating duct by calculate cutting off dutycycle) current chocking-up degree (be specially the blocked state of cotton linters filter 41 or blast pipe 50.
Fig. 9 is the structure chart of illustration drier according to a second embodiment of the present invention.Different with the drier of Fig. 4, the drier of Fig. 9 does not comprise testing circuit 80, but comprises temperature sensor 82a and 82b, is used for gas temperature and the microcomputer 90a of sensing at ventilating duct, is used to check the state of ventilating duct.Structural detail with same names and numeral is carried out identical functions.
Temperature sensor 82a, the temperature of its sensing exhaust passage 40 can be a kind of thermostatic chamber.For the gas temperature of sensing through cotton linters filter 41, temperature sensor 82a is placed in the rear end 41 of the cotton linters filter on the exhaust passage 40.Because exhaust passage 40 and blast pipe 50 communicate with each other, so though temperature sensor 82a is placed on the exhaust passage 40 behind the cotton linters filter 41, temperature sensor 82a can sensing and the immediate temperature of temperature of blast pipe 50.Provide temperature sensor 82b with the temperature (for example, water temperature, gas temperature etc.) in the sensing roller 10.Hereinafter, temperature sensor 82a and 82b can be called temperature sensor 82.
For with the temperature maintenance of exhaust passage 40 in preset range (for example, 100 to 110 ℃), microcomputer 90a is by according to the generation of being controlled hot heater 30 by temperature sensor 82a sensed temperature connection/cut-out switch SW.
State below microcomputer 90a uses.For example, stop up if ventilating duct (being specially blast pipe 50 or cotton linters filter 41) is serious, because the air-flow from the space of open air is not smooth, so temperature of heater 30 or raise and influence the first thermostatic chamber TS1 and the second thermostatic chamber TS2 (hereinafter, being called " temperature control unit ") by the gas temperature of heater 30 heating.But, because air-flow is not smooth, so can relatively slowly raise by temperature sensor 82a sensed temperature.Connection/cut-out the control of microcomputer 90a by utilizing switch SW is the state that the fact that the state according to ventilating duct changes is checked ventilating duct.Wherein, the state of ventilating duct comprises the position of the part of the chocking-up degree of ventilating duct and obstruction.For example, if cotton linters filter 41 is more or less blocked, then chocking-up degree is light, and if ventilating duct 50 stops up, then chocking-up degree is serious.
When the chocking-up degree of ventilating duct was light, the gas temperature and temperature sensor 82 sensed temperature that influence temperature control unit were very inequality.Even before temperature control unit blocks power supply, temperature raises continuously, and microcomputer 90a also can cut off by gauge tap SW.
On the contrary, when the chocking-up degree of ventilating duct was serious, the gas temperature that influences temperature control unit was than higher by temperature sensor 82 sensed temperature.Before microcomputer 90a gauge tap SW, temperature control unit cuts off automatically.Therefore, have only when the gas temperature of exhaust passage 40 surpass preset range for a long time after, microcomputer 90a just understands gauge tap SW.But when checking the state of ventilating duct after microcomputer 90a is using drier 1 first or cleaning cotton linters filter 41, microcomputer 90a checks the state (obstruction) of blast pipe 50.
Figure 10 is the curve map that illustrates by the connection/cut-out of the drying operation of the temperature of the microcomputer of Fig. 9 identification.In Figure 10, R represents the diameter of blast pipe 50, and the unit of use is an inch.Diameter at blast pipe 50 is under the situation of R (0), R (1.0), R (1.5), R (2.0) and R (2.625), and microcomputer 90a is according to temperature sensor 82a sensed temperature connection/cut-out switch SW.If diameter is big, then the state of ventilating duct (chocking-up degree) is light, and if diameter is little, then the state of ventilating duct (chocking-up degree) is serious.
Suggestion uses the method for connection/cut-out dutycycle of calculating power supply to check the state of ventilating duct.In this embodiment, can use one of them or both that connect dutycycle (x/y) and cut-out dutycycle (z/y).Table 1 illustrates the state according to the ventilating duct of the experimental result of the curve map that comprises Figure 10.
Table 1
| Cut off dutycycle | Chocking-up | Blocking portion | |
| 0~0.30 | - | - |
[0119]
| 0.30~0.45 | Low (gently) | Cotton linters filter |
| 3.45~0.60 | Middle | Cotton linters filter |
| 0.60~ | High (seriously) | Discharge pipe |
The question blank of microcomputer 90a storage such as table 1, calculating is reflected in the cut-out dutycycle (perhaps connecting dutycycle) of the connection/cut-out control characteristic of the switch SW during the drying operation, and the question blank of question blank and pre-stored made comparisons, check the blocked state (chocking-up degree, choking portion are graded) of corresponding region thus.
In addition, the state of the ventilating duct of microcomputer 90a storage current check, and pass through the state that display unit 9b shows ventilating duct.In the installation process of drier 1, microcomputer 90a notifies user's (or installation personnel) successful installation.That is, when the chocking-up degree of ventilating duct was serious, microcomputer 90a shows need reinstall the message of drier 1, or was presented at and needs other wall perforation so that the message that blast pipe 50 broadens on the outside wall.
The state of the ventilating duct of current check is subjected to the influence of the perforation of exterior wall.The chocking-up degree of the ventilating duct of checking behind initial installation drier 1 or cleaning cotton linters filter 41 is owing to the use of drier 1 becomes more serious.Therefore, microcomputer 90a is used as reference state or deviant with the state of the ventilating duct of current check.
Under state the situation as reference state (initial chocking-up degree) of microcomputer 90a with the ventilating duct of current check, microcomputer 90a is automatically or according to the state of checking the ventilating duct of instruction checking in each drying operation from state of user, and the state of the pre-stored of the state of ventilating duct and ventilating duct made comparisons, judge the current state of ventilating duct thus.
At microcomputer 90a the state of the ventilating duct of current check is used as under the situation of deviant, microcomputer 90a carries out drying operation by the oven dry algorithm that changes the current state that reflects ventilating duct.That is, microcomputer 90a informs the state of ventilating duct the temperature control, drying time etc. of the switch SW of oven dry algorithm.
In addition, microcomputer 90a is shown to the user with the state of the judgement of ventilating duct.But this user of being presented at carries out after finishing drying operation by drier 1, is used to prevent that the user from stopping drying operation and cleaning cotton linters filter 41.That is, can protect the user to avoid burn.
Figure 11 is the curve map of variations in temperature that the microcomputer identification of Fig. 9 is shown.Under Light Condition, wherein there is not clothing to put into drier 1, after the gas temperature of heater 30 heating reaches 60C, stop heater 30 and produce heat.Figure 11 illustrates the time that reaches 40 ℃ of costs.Wherein, the temperature of the gas of heating is the gas temperature in suction passage 20 or cylinder 10.In this embodiment, can use the temperature sensor 82b that is installed in the cylinder 10.
As shown in figure 11, the diameter of blast pipe 50 is more little, and gas temperature reduces slowly more.Gas temperature is subjected to flowing through the influence of the air-flow of blast pipe 50.The degree of the diameter of decrease of temperature degree (for example, speed) expression blast pipe 50.As mentioned above, the diameter of blast pipe 50 is corresponding to the state (obstruction) of ventilating duct.Microcomputer 90a checks the state of ventilating duct according to the decrease of temperature degree.
As mentioned above, microcomputer 90a can store the original state of ventilating duct and used as reference state or deviant.
Figure 12 is the curve map that the temperature waveform of temperature sensor senses is shown.Under no-load condition, there is not clothing to put into drier 1,72 of heater 30 and motor is driven.The gas temperature that Figure 12 illustrates temperature sensor 82a sensing changes.
As shown in figure 12, the diameter of blast pipe 50 is more little, and gas temperature changes fewly more within the predetermined time.Gas temperature be subjected to the flowing through influence of gas of blast pipe 50.Variation of temperature degree (for example, speed) is relevant with the degree of the diameter of blast pipe 50.As mentioned above, the diameter of blast pipe 50 is corresponding to the state (obstruction) of ventilating duct.Microcomputer 90a can check the state of ventilating duct according to the variation of temperature degree.
For example, when microcomputer 90a execution drying operation reached 1 minute 21 seconds, diameter was big more, and the end temperature of C1 to C5 is high more.Therefore, microcomputer 90a can be according to changed blocked state or the degree of checking ventilating duct by temperature sensor 82a sensed temperature.
The state of the ventilating duct of current check is subjected to the influence of the perforation of exterior wall.The chocking-up degree of the ventilating duct of checking after initial installation drier 1 or cleaning cotton linters filter 41 is owing to the use of drier 1 becomes even more serious.Therefore, microcomputer 90a can judge the progress degree of obstruction.
As mentioned above, microcomputer 90a is with the original state storage of ventilating duct and used as reference state or deviant.
Fig. 4 and 9 drier go for Figure 13 and 14.For convenience of description, illustration Fig. 9 drier and comprise the table 1 of the connection/cut-out dutycycle of power supply.In addition, also used the connection dutycycle.
Figure 13 is the flow chart that illustrates according to the sequential steps of the drier of the first embodiment of the present invention.
At length, in step S11, microcomputer 90a judges the chocking-up degree of the ventilating duct (comprising suction passage 20, exhaust passage 40 and blast pipe 50) of drier 1 according to preceding method.Therefore, microcomputer 90a obtains to connect dutycycle (for example, 0.70).Microcomputer 90a can carry out above-mentioned step S11 by the chocking-up degree inspection instruction of the ventilating duct of input block 9a input according to individual other control algolithm or by the user.Input block 9a can be installed on the interior section or rear surface of drier 1, rather than is installed on the control panel 9, makes the installation personnel of drier 1 can directly control and check input block 9a.
In step S12, microcomputer 90a judges whether the initial chocking-up degree of pre-stored exists.If initial chocking-up degree exists, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S14, otherwise microcomputer 90a marches to step S13.
In step S13, microcomputer 90a is set at initial chocking-up degree with the chocking-up degree of judging, and it is stored in the memory cell.As mentioned above, initial chocking-up degree becomes reference state.If do not judge initial chocking-up degree when drier 1 is carried out drying operation or in cleaning cotton linters filter 41 backs, then initial chocking-up degree is represented the chocking-up degree of blast pipe 50.
In step S14, microcomputer 90a calculates the difference between the chocking-up degree of the initial chocking-up degree of pre-stored and current judgement.Provide above-mentioned steps S14 with the progress of the chocking-up degree of inspection ventilating duct and the initial chocking-up degree of drying operation.In addition, if drier 1 is installed in the different spaces, then need to reset initial chocking-up degree.
In step S15, microcomputer 90a judges that whether the difference of calculating is corresponding to the initial difference reference in step S14.Provide initial difference with reference to judging reinstalling of drier 1, or the progress degree of the blocked state of blast pipe 50.When drier 1 was carried out drying operation, chocking-up degree increased.If the chocking-up degree of judging sharply increases (if the state of blast pipe 50 is becoming poor when front space or owing to wrong), or sharply reducing (changing) if the state of blast pipe 50 moves or repairs owing to the house, then above-mentioned step S15 need upgrade initial chocking-up degree.For example, when the connection dutycycle of initial chocking-up degree is 0.7, and the chocking-up degree of judging is 0.8 o'clock, if the initial difference reference settings is 4% o'clock of initial chocking-up degree, then initial difference is with reference to becoming 0.7 ± 0.028.Because difference is not corresponding to the initial difference reference, so microcomputer 90a marches to step S16.On the contrary, when the chocking-up degree of judging was 0.697, difference was corresponding to the initial difference reference, and then microcomputer 90a marches to step S17.The initial difference reference is the minimum reference that influenced by the state of blast pipe 50.If the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41 reaches maximum, then it can influence the chocking-up degree of initial difference with reference to interior judgement.
In step S16, microcomputer 90a is stored in the chocking-up degree of judging in the memory cell as new initial chocking-up degree.In step S16, whether the initial chocking-up degree that microcomputer 90a also judges storage in addition is corresponding to the chocking-up degree of the blast pipe 50 of table 1.The difference of step S14 is represented the other chocking-up degree of blast pipe 50.If the chocking-up degree of judging sharply reduces from initial chocking-up degree, then the obstruction progress degree of this expression blast pipe 50 is serious.Wherein, microcomputer 90a can delete all chocking-up degrees except the initial chocking-up degree of up-to-date storage.
In step S17, the difference between the chocking-up degree of microcomputer 90a calculating storage in the end and the chocking-up degree of judgement.For example, if the chocking-up degree of last storage is 0.698, and the chocking-up degree of current judgement is 0.697, and then difference becomes 0.01.On behalf of the chocking-up degree of ventilating duct, this difference increase, and corresponding to the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41.That is, the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41 slowly increases, and the chocking-up degree of blast pipe 50 increases sharply.If the chocking-up degree of whole ventilating duct slowly increases, then can cause by the obstruction of cotton linters filter 41, and if the chocking-up degree of whole ventilating duct increases fast, then can cause by the obstruction of blast pipe 50.
In step S18, microcomputer 90a can show difference on display unit 9b, with the chocking-up degree increase of notice cotton linters filter 41.
In step S19, microcomputer 90a is stored in the chocking-up degree of judging in the memory cell.If the chocking-up degree of being stored except initial chocking-up degree outnumber five, then microcomputer 90a can delete chocking-up degree at most.In addition, microcomputer 90a can be stored as difference the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41.
In step S20, microcomputer 90a shows initial chocking-up degree on display unit 9b.If program comes from step S13 and S16, then microcomputer 90a can show that initial chocking-up degree is as chocking-up degree as shown in table 1 or blocking portion.
In step S17 and S18, when microcomputer 90a had the chocking-up degree of the initial chocking-up degree and first judgement, the difference between the chocking-up degree of initial chocking-up degree and judgement was represented the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41.Thereafter, when microcomputer 90a obtained the chocking-up degree of second judgement, the difference between first chocking-up degree and second chocking-up degree was corresponding to the other chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41.Like this, microcomputer 90a checks the obstruction progress degree of cotton linters filter 41 by each difference.The summation of difference is represented the current chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41.
In above-mentioned flow chart, the chocking-up degree of the chocking-up degree of microcomputer 90a independent check blast pipe 50 or obstruction progress degree and cotton linters filter 41 or obstruction progress degree.
Figure 14 is the flow chart of sequential steps that the choke detecting method of drier according to a second embodiment of the present invention is shown.
Step S31 is identical with the step S11 of Figure 13.
In step S32, whether the chocking-up degree that microcomputer 90a judge to judge is corresponding to the obstruction reference of blast pipe 50.According to the chocking-up degree reference of the blast pipe in table 1 50, when the connection dutycycle is lower than 0.4, can think that blast pipe 50 stops up.Therefore, if the chocking-up degree of judging corresponding to the chocking-up degree reference, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S33, otherwise microcomputer 90a marches to step S34.
In step S33, microcomputer 90a judges that blast pipe 50 is blocked, and shows that on display unit 9b blast pipe 50 stops up.
In step S34, microcomputer 90a calculates the difference between the chocking-up degree of initial chocking-up degree and judgement.For example, if the connection dutycycle of initial chocking-up degree is 0.7, and the chocking-up degree of judging is 0.67, and then difference becomes 0.03.If the chocking-up degree of judging is 0.61, then difference becomes 0.09.
In step S35, whether the difference that microcomputer 90a judge to calculate is corresponding to the obstruction reference of cotton linters filter 41.For example, if the obstruction of cotton linters filter 41 reference is a difference greater than 0.07, then the difference of calculating at step S34 0.03 does not have corresponding to the obstruction reference, and microcomputer 90a marches to step S37 thus.Simultaneously, the difference of calculating at step S34 0.09 is corresponding to stopping up reference, and microcomputer 90a marches to step S36 thus.
In step S36, microcomputer 90a judges that cotton linters filter 41 has stopped up, and shows that on display unit 9b cotton linters filter 41 stops up.
In step S37, microcomputer 90a is stored in the chocking-up degree of judging in the memory cell.Wherein, microcomputer 90a can show the normal condition of ventilating duct on display unit 9b.
In Figure 14, microcomputer 90a can notify the user with the obstruction of blast pipe 50, the obstruction of cotton linters filter 41 or the normal condition of ventilating duct according to the chocking-up degree of judging.
Figure 15 is the flow chart of sequential steps of choke detecting method that the drier of a third embodiment in accordance with the invention is shown.
At length, in step S41, microcomputer 90a checks that whether the state-detection instruction of blast pipe 50 is by input block 9a input.If imported the state-detection instruction, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S42, otherwise microcomputer 90a stops this program.In this step S41, if the instruction of the state-detection of storage exists, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S42.
In step S42, microcomputer 90a storage is by the temperature T s of the ventilating duct of temperature sensor 82a sensing.
In step S43, microcomputer 90a is by driving the drying operation that heater 30 and motor 72 start drier 1.
In step S44, microcomputer 90a checks whether the stipulated time (for example, 1 minute 30 seconds) of state-detection is over and done with.That is, microcomputer 90a execution drying operation reaches the stipulated time of this step S44 at least.
In step S45, microcomputer 90a obtains the temperature T e of the ventilating duct of temperature sensor 82a sensing.
In step S46, microcomputer 90a makes comparisons difference between temperature T e and the Ts and temperature reference Tr.Temperature reference Tr is a unique value of judging that blast pipe 50 stops up.If difference is littler than temperature reference Tr, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S47, otherwise microcomputer 90a marches to step S48.
In step S47, because temperature T e has stopped up and shows on display unit 9b so microcomputer 90a judges blast pipe 50 because the obstruction of blast pipe 50 raises from the temperature T s that is lower than temperature reference Tr.For example, if temperature T s is 20 ℃, and temperature reference Tr is 12 ℃, and then temperature T e does not reach 32 ℃.
In step S48, elevated temperature is with reference to Tr at least because temperature T e is because the obstruction of blast pipe 50 is from temperature T s, so microcomputer 90a judges that blast pipe 50 is normalities, and demonstration blast pipe 50 is a normality on display unit 9b.For example, if temperature T s is 20 ℃, and temperature reference Tr is 12 ℃, and then temperature T e is above 32 ℃.
In the step S42 and S45 of said temperature sensing, actual temperature can impose on microcomputer 90a from temperature sensor 82a.In another case, when microcomputer 90a and temperature sensor 82a electrical connection, and temperature sensor 82a is because temperature when different resistance values is arranged, if predetermined case (identical voltage, same current etc.) imposes on temperature sensor unit 82, the resistance value that microcomputer 90a can accounting temperature sensor 82a then, and sign is corresponding to the temperature of resistance value.
In above-mentioned flow chart, when drier 1 is installed first because the house moves or is installed once more, for blocked state and the chocking-up degree of only checking drying operation blast pipe 50, can between step S44 and S45, increase microcomputer 90a drying operation stop step.
Figure 16 is the flow chart of sequential steps of choke detecting method that the drier of a fourth embodiment in accordance with the invention is shown.
After drying operation, the obstruction of cotton linters filter 41 less influences temperature than the obstruction of blast pipe 50.That is, be used to judge that the temperature reference Tr2 of obstruction of blast pipe 50 is bigger than the temperature reference Tr1 of the obstruction that is used to judge cotton linters filter 41.Therefore, temperature reference Tr can be stored as a plurality of values, is used to identify the obstruction of cotton linters filter 41 and the obstruction of blast pipe 50.The flow chart of Figure 16 reflects this characteristic.
At length, in step S81, microcomputer 90a checks that whether the state-detection instruction of ventilating duct is by input block 9a input.If imported the state-detection instruction, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S82, otherwise microcomputer 90a stops this program.In this step S81, if the instruction of the state-detection of storage exists, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S82.
Step S82 to S85 is identical with the step S42 to S45 of Figure 15.
In step S86, microcomputer 90a makes comparisons difference between temperature T e and the Ts and temperature reference Tr1.Temperature reference Tr1 is the value that is used to judge the obstruction of blast pipe 50.If difference is littler than temperature reference Tr1, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S87, otherwise microcomputer 90a marches to step S88.
Step S87 is identical with the step S47 of Figure 15.
In step S88, microcomputer 90a makes comparisons difference between C.T Te and the Ts and temperature reference Tr2.Temperature reference Tr2 is the value that is used to judge the obstruction of cotton linters filter 41.If difference is littler than temperature reference Tr2, then microcomputer 90a marches to step S89, otherwise microcomputer 90a marches to step S90.
In step S89, microcomputer 90a judges that the part of the obstruction of ventilating duct is a cotton linters filter 41, and shows that cotton linters filter 41 stops up.
In step S90, microcomputer 90a judges the part that does not have obstruction on ventilating duct, and shows the ventilating duct normal condition.
For example, when temperature reference Tr1 is 12 ℃, and temperature reference Tr2 is when being 20 ℃, if the difference of calculating in step S86 is littler than temperature reference Tr1, then microcomputer 90a judges that blast pipe 50 stops up, if difference is bigger than temperature reference Tr1, but it is littler than temperature reference Tr2, then microcomputer 90a judges that cotton linters filter 41 stops up, and if difference is bigger than temperature reference Tr2, then microcomputer 90a judges the ventilating duct normal condition.
In above-mentioned steps, microcomputer 90a is stored in the difference between temperature T e and the Ts.Microcomputer 90a judges the obstruction progress degree of ventilating duct by comparing difference.Usually, difference reduces by the drying operation repeatedly of drier 1.For example, if the difference of last storage is 24 ℃, and the difference of current sensing is 22 ℃, and then the difference of Jian Shaoing can cause the obstruction progress of cotton linters filter 41.
Figure 17 to 19 is illustration schematic diagrames according to the demonstration example in the choke detecting method of the present invention.
As shown in figure 17, microcomputer 90a makes comparisons chocking-up degree and the table 1 judged, and shows chocking-up degree (blocked state of cotton linters filter 41) and blocking portion by accompanying drawing and character on display unit 9b.
As shown in figure 18, display unit 9b shows chocking-up degree by calcspar and character, also shows the part of stopping up by character.
As shown in figure 19, display unit 9b shows chocking-up degree (cut-out dutycycle) and the part of stopping up with the character demonstration with percentage (%).Wherein, chocking-up degree can be expressed as and multiply by the percentage of ' 100 ' with cutting off dutycycle.If the cut-out dutycycle of ventilating duct is 0.7, represent that then 70% stops up, it stops up corresponding to blast pipe 50.
In addition, display unit 9b can inform the user with chocking-up degree and blocking portion by sound or alarm.
Figure 20 to 23 is illustration schematic diagrames according to the other demonstration example in the choke detecting method of the present invention.
With reference to Figure 20, microcomputer 90a shows the chocking-up degree as the blast pipe 50 of the initial chocking-up degree of setting in step S13 and S47, and simultaneously or alternately show the blocked state or the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41.Figure 20 illustrates a kind of state, and wherein drier 1 at first is connected to blast pipe 50 and handles with choke detecting method.Cotton linters filter 41 does not have blocked at all.
Fig. 21 illustrates a kind of state, and wherein the chocking-up degree of blast pipe 50 is because drying operation, the house moves or at step S16, the obstruction of the blast pipe 50 among S32 or the S87 and increasing fast from the chocking-up degree of Figure 20.In Figure 21, if the state of blast pipe 50 reach "
", then microcomputer 90a judges that the current chocking-up degree of blast pipe 50 reaches critical stage, and shows the obstruction warning message (or cleaning information) of blast pipe 50 by display unit 9b vision or sense of hearing ground.For example, the state of the blast pipe 50 of demonstration flashes to attract user's attention.
Figure 22 illustrates a kind of state, and wherein the chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 4 is because drying operation and slowly increasing from the chocking-up degree of Figure 20.If the state of cotton linters filter 41 reach "
", then microcomputer 90a judges that the current chocking-up degree of cotton linters filter 41 reaches critical stage, and shows the obstruction warning message (or cleaning information) of cotton linters filter 41 by display unit 9b vision or sense of hearing ground.For example, the state of the cotton linters filter 41 of demonstration flashes to attract user's attention.
