Definitions

  • the invention relates to an actuating device for a device for applying a toilet seat cover, which can be pulled off as a film tube on one end from a film store, displaceable by seat length along a toilet seat and can be received in a receiving device at the other end.
  • this object is achieved in that, for the functional test by means of the control, each time the film advance is triggered, the renewed covering of the toilet seat with film can be checked and a control signal dependent on the test result can be generated.
  • the controller is preferably connected to a detection arrangement which responds to the displacement of the film tube in the area of the film storage device in order to test the function each time the film feed is triggered, in order to generate the control signal when the displacement is detected, which also means the presence of the film hose in the film storage device, the presence of the Operating voltage and the integrity of the drive or the film tube between the drive and film storage can be checked.
  • the film shift is triggered by means of a coin acceptance device, this is preferably connected to the drive control or the detection arrangement for the signal exchange and is designed such that the triggering coin can be ejected for return if the control signal from the detection arrangement is absent.
  • the door lock cooperating with the coin acceptance device the door lock can only be unblocked by the coin when the release signal from the detection arrangement occurs.
  • the use of the toilet in the event of a malfunction can thus be prevented, in which case the coin can be retrieved by ejecting a coin.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show the basic arrangement of the device according to the invention with the cover removed.
  • a dispenser roll 1 serving as a film store, on which the still unused film tube 12 is wound, it is pulled onto the open end 2 of a toilet seat 3.
  • a take-up roller 5 which is designed as a take-up device and is driven by a motor 4 and on which the used film tube is rolled up at 6 after it has been separated.
  • the motor 4 Since the toilet seat is designed as an interchangeable unit, the motor 4 has a battery storage indicated at 7, which is however not mandatory.
  • the dispenser roll 1 has two lateral pins 8, by means of which it is freely rotatable in adapted bearing recesses 9 of two supporting parts 10 (FIG. 2) and can therefore be easily replaced. Laterally this S is a housing 11 disposed penderrolle 1 in the region in which the drive control to be described later as well as the Detection arrangement are housed.
  • the general functioning of the device is based on the fact that before each shift of the film tube 12 by a seat length it is first checked whether film is present at all in the store. In the negative case, the corresponding consequences can then be drawn, such as returning money, blocking access and notifying the service team, etc.
  • a check can be carried out in various ways. It is preferably done by actuating the film drive and then determining whether the film is moving in the area of the film store, which can be seen in particular from the rotation of the dispenser roll. This can ensure that there is still film in the film storage unit, but also that the drive or the film tube are intact in the accessible area of the glasses.
  • a test feed of relatively short length is therefore first triggered, corresponding to approximately a quarter turn of the dispenser roll.
  • the detection arrangement checks in the area of the dispenser roller 1 whether the dispenser roller 1 rotates or not when the motor is actuated. If it does not turn, then this is a sign of a malfunction, be it that the motor 4 did not initiate any feed because of a defect or lack of operating voltage, or that the film tube 12 was cut somewhere after the dispenser roll 1 or was finally, that the supply on the donor roll is exhausted. In all of these cases there is no enable signal from the detection arrangement with the corresponding consequences to be described.
  • An inductive pickup 14 can advantageously be used as the detection arrangement D, which is arranged laterally on the pin 8 of the dispenser roller 1 eccentrically to its axis.
  • the pin 8 is one provided lateral cap, in which a metal support 15 is accommodated, which is shaped so that when rotating, metallic and other areas of the cap alternately get into the area of the receiver 14.
  • the signals thereby triggered in the inductive pickup 14 are further processed in the detection arrangement D to generate an enable signal.
  • FIG. 4 shows the circuit part 16 on the door side, which interacts with the mechanical lock 17, while in FIG. 3 the circuit part 18 on the closet side, consisting of a detection arrangement and motor control, is shown.
  • the circuit part on the door side is switched on by a microswitch 21.
  • the control device there thereupon a signal S for triggering an infrared transmitter 19 which emits an IR signal A modulated, for example, at 3 kHz.
  • a switch-on signal E is generated, with which the energy supply to an IR receiver 22 and a coin release device 23 is switched on.
  • the coin 25 then falls through a coin channel to the coin release device 23 (FIG. 5) and is held there in a waiting position by two holding pins 24.
  • an IR receiver 30 provided on the closet-side circuit part 18 has received the signal A.
  • This receiver 30 is designed in the CMOS structure and works with minimal power in the so-called "stand-by" mode. This is because it is the only component that must be operated continuously.
  • a switch 31 switches on the signal of the receiver, the battery voltage X to a timer 32, which thus operates and generates a time signal Y of predetermined length.
  • this time signal Y reaches a control circuit 33 which switches on the motor M for the test feed and receives the acknowledgment pulses K from the detection arrangement D and forwards them to an acknowledgment timer 34.
  • the latter ensures that the acknowledgment pulses are only transmitted back to the door-side circuit part via an IR transmitter 35 as an IR release signal B after the duration of the time signal Y.
  • the function of the time signal Y is therefore to allow the acknowledgment pulses K to be sent out only after the starting current has decayed.
  • the release signal B of the toilet-side circuit 18 is therefore only sent when the feed has been determined by the detection arrangement D.
  • This release signal B is from the door-side circuit part 16 in the IR receiver 22 which has already been switched on received, which outputs an actuation signal F to the coin release device 23, in which the holding pins 24 are withdrawn by means of an electromagnet 26, so that the coin 25 enters the lock 17 through a corresponding channel 27 and unlocks it, that is to say gives access to the toilet.
  • the film tube is fed by the rest of the seat length on the closet side. After actuation, all of the circuit parts described switch off except for the IR receiver 30 on the closet side.
  • the coin release device 23 does not receive the actuation signal F, so that the holding pin 24 is not withdrawn. The coin 25 thus remains in the waiting position and does not unblock the lock 17.
  • the user can recover the coin 25 by actuating a coin ejection device.
  • a coin ejection device By pressing a corresponding button 40, the coin 25 is laterally displaced against an ejection channel 28 (FIG. 6), whereby it initially remains clamped by a resilient cover 41 and, after it has been pushed open, is released into said channel 28 by a plunger 29.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 schematically show a modification of the arrangement described with automatic coin ejection, combined with a fault indicator.
  • Fig. 7 shows part of the door-side arrangement.
  • a coin slot 41 for the coins 25 is provided in a housing 46.
  • This is followed by a coin channel, which branches into an ejection channel 42 and a lock channel 43 in its lower region.
  • retractable or pushable cams R 1 and R 2 protrude into the channel, which are actuated by means of corresponding relays R 1 and R 2 .
  • the cam or relay R 1 gives the Ejection part 42 of the channel free, while the cam or the relay R 2 releases its lock part 43, whereby the coin 25 arrives in the lock 17 and unlocks it.
  • a fault indicator 47 is arranged in the upper area of the housing 46, which is actuated by two relays R 3 and R 4 and can be perceived from the outside through a window 48.
  • switch 21 which is designed here as an inductive pickup. As already explained, this triggers the switch-on signal E, among other things. This is fed to the relay R 1 and causes it to advance the corresponding cam into the coin channel.
  • the cam of relay R 2 is already in the advanced position in the rest position, so that the coin is held as shown in FIG. 7. In this position, a coin check can be carried out in a conventional manner.
  • the switch-on signal E With the switch-on signal E, the relay R 3 of the fault indicator is also actuated, with the result that a red badge appears in the display window 48.
  • the actuation signal F is triggered in the door-side circuit 16, as explained. This causes the relay R 2 to be actuated and the corresponding cam to be withdrawn, so that the coin reaches the lock 17 through the lock channel 43. At the same time, the fault indicator relay R 4 is actuated, which means that a white sticker is shown in the display window 47 appears. Access to the toilet room is free, ensuring that the toilet seat cover has been replaced.
  • the actuating device described has the effect that access to the toilet and the collection of the amount of money required for this are only released if a film feed is ensured.
  • the use of the device according to the invention is not limited to this, but can in particular also be used in freely accessible toilet rooms.
  • the coin acceptance device is preferably arranged in the detection arrangement or fastened to the wall next to the toilet.
  • the IR transmission device could also be omitted and replaced by a cable connection.
  • the processes described can be triggered by the user other than by inserting a coin, be it that the use of the toilet should be free of charge, or that another means of payment, such as debitable magnetic cards, be used.
  • the coin control device is replaced by a known card invalidation device, by means of which a specific credit stored on the card can be canceled in stages.
  • the test procedure described is triggered by inserting a suitable card, the validation only taking place after the release signal B has occurred.
  • Such an application also allows toilet use only To reserve a certain group of people, as can be useful in clubhouses, hospitals, etc.
  • the card can also have a mere legitimation function.
  • the device according to the invention has the task of informing the service personnel or the user if a malfunction is detected.
  • the facility can be provided with an alarm device using the already existing supply, which in the event of unauthorized manipulation of the system by means of a detector corresponding to the selected type of monitoring, which responds to undesired manipulation, e.g. a sensor or an inertia switch that triggers the alarm.
  • a detector corresponding to the selected type of monitoring, which responds to undesired manipulation, e.g. a sensor or an inertia switch that triggers the alarm.
  • a sound generator can be provided on the toilet side, which responds when the detection arrangement D detects an advance of the film without the motor M having been actuated. An alarm signal thus sounds as soon as an attempt is made to pull the film tube 3 further by hand or if the film tube is manipulated in any other way.
