Abstract
Un système de commande (4) est destiné à des installations automatiques, en particulier des installations de lessive dans des maisons résidentielles où plusieurs utilisateurs peuvent utiliser contre paiement les machines de l'installation, par exemple des machines à laver (11), des machines de séchage par centrifugation, des tambours de séchage (2) et des calandres (3), d'une manière et pendant une période de temps prédéterminées après que l'utilisateur en question a activé un circuit donnant accès (9). Le système comprend un lecteur de cartes (5) qui est adapté à la lecture mécanique de cartes d'identité (6) qui ont été distribuées aux utilisateurs et qui contiennent sous une forme lisible mécaniquement des données concernant l'identité de chaque utilisateur. Le système comprend également un circuit (7) qui compare les données lues par le lecteur de cartes avec des données stockées concernant les utilisateurs autorisés et qui, en cas de conformité active le circuit donnant accès (9). A des fins de débit, le système comprend un circuit (12, 13) qui, lorsqu'une machine (1, 2, 3) est activée, mémorise les données d'identité lues ainsi que des données concernant la machine en question. Le lecteur de cartes (5), le circuit de comparaison et d'activation et le circuit de mémorisation (7) peuvent être communs à plusieurs machines car un circuit sélecteur (8) est monté entre ces circuits communs et le circuit donnant accès à chaque machine. L'utilisateur peut introduire manuellement des données concernant la machine (1, 2, 3) qu'il désire utiliser à l'aide de ce circuit sélecteur.A control system (4) is intended for automatic installations, in particular washing installations in residential houses where several users can use the machines of the installation against payment, for example washing machines (11), washing machines for drying by centrifugation, drying drums (2) and calenders (3), in a manner and for a predetermined period of time after the user in question has activated an access circuit (9). The system comprises a card reader (5) which is suitable for the mechanical reading of identity cards (6) which have been distributed to users and which contain in a mechanically readable form data relating to the identity of each user. The system also includes a circuit (7) which compares the data read by the card reader with stored data concerning authorized users and which, in the event of conformity, activates the access circuit (9). For debit purposes, the system comprises a circuit (12, 13) which, when a machine (1, 2, 3) is activated, stores the read identity data as well as data relating to the machine in question. The card reader (5), the comparison and activation circuit and the storage circuit (7) can be common to several machines because a selector circuit (8) is mounted between these common circuits and the circuit giving access to each machine. The user can manually enter data concerning the machine (1, 2, 3) which he wishes to use using this selector circuit.
