Inhaler also has excess detector portion 501, and this excess detector portion 501 is used to detect above the inclination of the prescribed level of inhaler and moves.Excess detector portion 501 comprises: angle excess detector portion 502, and it judges based on the measurement result of determination of tilt portion 508 whether (detection) inhaler tilts more than the predetermined angular; And acceleration excess detector portion 503, whether it is based on the output signal of acceleration determination part 509, detect and to give acceleration above the regulation acceleration to inhaler.
With reference to Fig. 7 A to Fig. 7 C, an example of the tilt detection of the inhaler that has utilized acceleration transducer 9 is described.With reference to Fig. 7 A, two axles of quadrature of having stipulated the face that is placed with acceleration transducer 9 (two dimensional surface) of substrate 8 are assumed to X-axis and Z axle, and supposition and these two orthogonal Y-axis of axle (Y-axis run through on the direction of paper extend).Acceleration transducer 9 is the gravity acceleration transducer, in the present embodiment, by detecting the acceleration of gravity of three directions (the Z direction that the Y direction that Y-axis is extended, the directions X that X-axis is extended and Z axle extend), has the function of the inclination of measuring inhaler.In addition, as acceleration transducer 9, the detection side also can be two direction of principal axis to being not limited to three direction of principal axis.
The detection of the inclination that has utilized acceleration transducer 9 and the detection of acceleration are described.Suppose that acceleration transducer 9 detects 1G (G=9.8m/m in directions X, Y direction and Z direction respectively 2) acceleration of gravity the time, with the counting numeric data 340 export CPU50 to.
As Fig. 7 A, when acceleration transducer 9 is installed on the substrate 8, under state, on directions X, detect the acceleration of gravity of 1G as X-axis and the orthogonal Fig. 7 B in ground, so the value of directions X output 340 countings, Y direction and Z direction are exported the value of 0 counting respectively.
For example, make the substrate 8 that is equipped with acceleration transducer 9 as Fig. 7 C during ground cant angle theta °, if the output of directions X counting is 300, then determination of tilt portion 50 is based on the output of acceleration transducer 9 sides, and the angle (angle of inclination) that detection (calculating) goes out is θ=COS -1(300/340).Detected angle of inclination provides to angle excess detector portion 502.502 pairs of detected angles of inclination of angle excess detector portion and the regulation angle of inclination that is stored in advance in the memorizer 52 compare, the result judges that whether detected angle of inclination surpasses institute angle of inclination (whether excessive), and export this result of determination based on the comparison.

The structure of the peripheral circuit of CPU50 is described with reference to Fig. 8.The voltage signal of the AC100V that power line 12 is supplied converts DC5V to by low voltage circuit 41, and then the voltage signal of DC5V is the voltage of DC3V by 43 blood pressure lowerings of blood pressure lowering portion.The voltage signal of 3V after the blood pressure lowering is supplied to acceleration transducer 9 grades as driving voltage.
The ON/OFF of heater 3 is described.Heater control part 30 is based on the output signal from CPU50, by transistor Q2 as switch element, photothyristor 3X that is equivalent to control circuit for heater 3A and the bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y that is equivalent to output circuit 3B are carried out ON/OFF control, control energising thus heater 3.Particularly, switch 11 is operated, (close: OFF) state, then CPU50 is at the base terminal output rated current of transistor Q2 if the switch that CPU50 goes out to be equivalent to the power switch circuit 11A of switch 11 based on the input signal detection from power switch circuit 11A reaches ON.Thus, transistor Q2 reaches conducting (ON) state, and the photothyristor 3X that is connected in collector terminal one side of transistor Q2 reaches conducting (ON) state, provides ON signal via photothyristor 3X to bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y from CPU50.Thus, via the bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y that reaches the ON state, to the voltage signal of heater 3 supply AC100V.
Otherwise if switch 11 is carried out the power supply opening operation, then transistor Q2 is controlled as non-conduction (OFF) state.Thus, the photothyristor 3X that is connected in collector terminal one side of transistor Q2 reaches non-conduction (OFF) state, provides OFF signal via photothyristor 3X to bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y from CPU50.Thus, bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y reaches the OFF state, so stop the power supply to heater 3.
The switching of the spray amount of having utilized heater 3 is described.AC100V powers to heater 3 via bidirectional triode thyristor 3X by the full-wave phase control mode.Particularly, CPU50 detects the zero crossing of the AC wave shape of AC100V based on the input signal from zero cross detection circuit 45.If user's manipulation strength potentiometer 81 is imported the specification signal that is used to specify spray amount " many ", then action as follows: synchronously bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y is exported the ON signal via photothyristor 3X with detected zero crossing.Its result, to the electric power of the maximum level of the all-wave shape of the AC wave shape of heater 3 supply AC100V, it is maximum that the caloric value of heater 3 reaches, and the spraying quantitative change is many.
On the other hand, if manipulation strength potentiometer 81 is imported and is used to specify the specification signal that spray amount " is lacked ", as CPU50 via photothyristor 3X, the moment behind the zero crossing delay stipulated time of the AC wave shape of AC100V to bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y output ON signal.Its result, 3 supplies are less than the electric energy of the maximum power of all-wave shape to heater, and the caloric value of heater 3 tails off, and spray amount tails off.
Like this, according to the spray amount handover operation of the intensity potentiometer 81 of switch 11 interlock, CPU50 switches delivery to heater 3 by bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y, the steam generation that can switch thus from the time per unit of boiler water tank 2 is a spray amount.
The action of inhaler is described with reference to Fig. 9.The flow chart of Fig. 9 is stored in the memorizer 52 in advance as program.CPU50 reads this program and carries out the program of reading from memorizer 52, realize the processing of the flow chart of Fig. 9 thus.
At first, the user operates switch 11, and OFF switches to power source ON from power supply, and CPU50 detects handover operation based on the input signal from input part 504, and begins processing (step S1).
Handle at the beginning, CPU50 starts initial treatment portion 505.
Initial treatment portion 505 carries out initial treatment program R1.Particularly, utilize power supply test section 506,, judge whether the supply voltage via power line 12 supplies is AC220V (step 83) based on output signal from AC220V testing circuit 47.If being judged to be the output signal of AC220V testing circuit 47 is level " 1 " (step S3: be), judge that then the supply voltage of being supplied is AC220V, and the handling procedure R3 of (OFF) is closed in the starting atomizing.
In atomizing bolt down procedure R3, thereby CPU50 control power supply unit 40 disconnects (OFF) power supply to each one.Thus, because do not begin energising to heater 3, so the atomizing of the water in the cup 4 that do not supply water, (step S27) do not spray yet.So far, processing finishes.
On the other hand, if power supply test section 506 is judged to be the output signal indication " 0 " of AC220V testing circuit 47, the supply voltage that promptly detects via power line 12 supplies is AC100V (step S3: not), then carry out the processing of step S5.
In step S5, power supply test section 506 detects the detection number of times of the zero crossing of time per unit based on the output signal from zero cross detection circuit 45.Based on its testing result, the frequency of judging the power supply voltage signal of being supplied is which frequency (step S5) among 50Hz or the 60Hz.Frequency judges that one finishes, and CPU50 is set at (T=1) with the value of timer 51.Thus, initial treatment program R1 finishes.
Then, program R2 in the CPU50 starting atomizing.In the atomizing program R2 at the beginning, the value of 510 pairs of timers 51 of timing control part counting be over (count up) (step S9).Then, the value MAX of the count value T of 510 pairs of timers 51 of timing control part and the regulation of reading from memorizer 52 compares, and judges (whether the condition of T 〉=MAX) sets up (step S11).When being judged to be this condition establishment (step S11: " overtime (TIME UP) "), promptly when the inhaler continuous running exceeds schedule time, start above-mentioned atomizing bolt down procedure R3.
On the other hand, (T 〉=MAX) do not set up (step S11: " not "), then in step S13, CPU50 judges whether boiler water tank 2 is in empty burning state (step S13) if be judged to be condition.Promptly, empty 511 pairs of wall surface temperature and the set points of temperature based on the boiler water tank 2 of the output signal of temperature sensing circuit 3C of test section of burning compare, when the result is judged to be above set point of temperature based on the comparison, detect to being in empty burning state (step S13: be), starting atomizing bolt down procedure R3 stops the atomizing action.That is, CPU50 control bidirectional triode thyristor 3Y cuts off the power supply to heater 3.Thus, the heating of heater 3 stops, and produces from the steam of heating clamber 6 to stop.
On the other hand,, empty burning test section 511 is not in empty burning state (step S13: not) if thereby being judged to be to detect above set point of temperature based on above-mentioned comparative result, then the angle excess detector portion 502 of excess detector portion 501 and acceleration excess detector portion 503 bases are based on the determination of tilt portion 508 of the output signal of acceleration transducer 9 and the output signal of acceleration determination part 509, judge whether inhaler surpasses predetermined angular ground and tilt, or be not endowed the above acceleration (step S15) of regulation acceleration.
Be in the state that tilts above predetermined angular ground or be endowed acceleration (step S15: be) more than the regulation acceleration if be judged to be inhaler, then start above-mentioned atomizing bolt down procedure R3, atomizing and spraying all stops.
Like this, thereby carry out the detection of posture (angle of inclination, acceleration),, then do not spray if the main body posture when being judged to be the spraying beginning is incorrect to being in the inhaler that switch 11 is operated under the state of power connection (ON).In addition, also can utilize alarm efferent 53 to export alarm tone this moment.
If be judged to be following inclination of predetermined angular or acceleration less than regulation acceleration (step S15: not), then next CPU50 judges after the user operates switch 11 spray amount is switched on a small quantity or which (the step S17) in the volume based on the input signal from intensity potentiometer 81.Switch to a small amount of (step S17: " lacking ") if be judged to be, then in step S21, control bidirectional triode thyristor 3X, thereby reduce the electric energy that offers heater 3 by heater control part 507.Thus, tail off from the steam generation of heating clamber 6, spray amount tails off.
On the other hand, switch to volume (step S17: " many "), then in step S19, control bidirectional triode thyristor 3X, thereby make the electric energy that offers heater 3 for maximum by heater control part 507 if be judged to be.Thus, many from the steam generation quantitative change of heating clamber 6, the spraying quantitative change is many.
After the processing of step S19 or step S21, return the processing of step S9 once more and carry out later processing repeatedly.In addition, in atomizing, in the processing of program R2, disconnect (OFF) operation, then it is handled as interrupt signal, the processing of program R2 in the atomizing is finished if detect the power supply of switch 11, starting atomizing bolt down procedure R3, thus the atomizing action is stopped.
Like this, the acceleration transducer 9 that carries in by inhaler detects the angle of inclination of inhaler main body, be designated as more than the predetermined angular at detected angle of inclination, close (OFF) heater 3, thus can avoid inhaler main body in use to tilt or when being inverted water outflow etc. to the damage of equipment.
In addition, according to present embodiment, be not that tilt detection portion is from the outstanding structure in the outside of framework as the mode that push rod is inverted in the utilization of prior art, therefore structure can be simplified, even and the placement location of inhaler be also can confirm on the flannelette blanket that becomes mildewed to tilt.
In addition, by detecting acceleration, mention main body and close heater 3 thereby can detect the user to the inhaler main body.Thus, mention suddenly in use under the situation that the inhaler main body moves, can automatically close heater 3, can stop steam and produce.
In addition, the swing that utilizes acceleration transducer 9 to detect the main body of inhaler is used as acceleration, and automatically stops the power supply to heater 3.Thus, detecting the lasting stipulated time of particular state when above (when for example earthquake taking place), also can close heater 3, thereby prevent to overflow boiling water from main body, wherein, above-mentioned particular state is meant that the variable quantity of acceleration transducer 9 detected acceleration is greater than the state of the value of regulation.
(other embodiments)
Detect when the inhaler main body tilts to surpass power connection (ON) operation of carrying out switch 11 under the state of predetermined angular at CPU50, also can export alarm by alarm efferent 53.
For example, thus when causing main body not obtain face that normal posture reaches heater 3 can not contacting the state of an amount of water (water in the heating clamber 6) at the angle of inclination, postpone the beginning of spraying.If postpone the beginning of spraying, then the user may open the cover of boiler water tank 2 in order to detect inside (water have or not etc.).At this moment, the temperature in boiler water tank 2 and the heating clamber 6 descends, and the beginning of spraying further postpones.In the present embodiment,, then export alarm tone as described above, open the delay of cover and spraying beginning accidentally so can prevent the user if detect above-mentioned state.Thus, can remind the user to use inhaler, can make the required time of spraying beginning constant with appropriate main body posture.
As the established part that acceleration transducer 9 is installed, can be the rotating shaft of revolving power connection (ON)/disconnection (OFF) switch.At this moment, the angle of inclination of the rotation of the switching manipulation generation of acceleration transducer 9 detection rotating shafts.The operations linkage ground of detected angle and power source ON/OFF switch switches.Its result detects power source ON/OFF operation based on the output signal of acceleration transducer 9, operating state can be switched to the beginning of spraying/stop.
Here, the switching of spray amount is not limited to the operations linkage with above-mentioned intensity potentiometer 81, also can be following such.
Promptly, when nozzle and suction inlet 10 are installed and removed freely (replaceable) on main body, the setting angle (angle of inclination) of suction inlet 10 be can detect, and throat suction usefulness (spray amount is many) or nose suction usefulness (spray amount is few) switched to based on detection angles with respect to main body.Particularly, the part of suction inlet 10 is installed on the main body more specifically at the established part related with suction inlet 10, acceleration transducer 9 is installed, then changes the output rank of acceleration transducer 9 in linkage with the switching of the setting angle of detected suction inlet 10 in the mounting portion.Can switch power supply based on the output (angle of inclination of suction inlet 10) of acceleration transducer 9, can switch spray amount heater 3.
In addition, throat is sucked with and the nose suction inlet 10 that sucks dual-purpose in the usefulness by larynx/when the nose switch knob is installed on the main body, the handover operation of the angle by larynx/nose switch knob can switch the spray amount that is supplied to suction inlet 10 from spray nozzle part 5 by the angle of larynx/nose switch knob.Acceleration transducer 9 is installed on larynx/nose switch knob part, and acceleration transducer 9 detects the angle of inclination of larynx/nose switch knob, and according to the delivery of detection angles switching to heater 3.Thus, can switch spray amount in linkage with the handover operation of the angle of larynx/nose switch knob.
Relative with it, also suction inlet 10 can be fixedly mounted on the main body, suck with suction is used for using with nose by making main body itself tilt to be divided into throat.The bottom surface that makes main body as Figure 10 is two faces of the thin wedge shape of front end.The angle of inclination difference of two faces.Utilize the bottom surface of the wedge-type shape placement main body that tilts.By the bottom surface that separately is used to place, can be that the angle of inclination of suction inlet 10 is divided into the throat suction with suction is used for using with nose with the angle of inclination of main body.
In Figure 10, utilize the bottom surface of wedge-type shape, it is towards larynx or towards nose that the suction inlet 10 of inhaler freely tilts.The acceleration transducer 9 that is built in inhaler detects the angle of inclination of inhaler main body.Based on detection angles, detect which kind of mode of being arranged in throat suction and the nose suction.Power supply can be switched based on testing result, spray amount can be switched heater 3.In addition, the number of the bottom surface that the angle of inclination is different also can be for more than three, at this moment, spray amount can be switched to many, less and more than the three phases in addition.
This disclosed embodiment should be understood to the illustration rather than the restriction of whole aspects, place.Scope of the present invention is not to be represented by above-mentioned explanation, but represents by claims, is intended to comprise the meaning that is equal to claims and all changes in the scope.
