Definitions
- the present invention refers to a household-type clothes washing machine comprising a programme sequence control switch to control the actuation of the various process cycles to be performed by the machine, and a number of control devices provided to ensure correct operation of the same machine according to pre-set process parameters.
- Clothes washing machines are generally known to be equipped with a safety interlock arrangement provided to prevent the loading door from being able to be opened when the machine is operating.
- a first type of such door interlock arrangement is generally adapted to enable the loading door to only be opened, upon conclusion of a process cycle, after a certain delay time has elapsed so as to allow the user to reach into the drum under conditions of greater safety.
- Such an arrangement generally consists of some electromechanical device comprising mainly a catch or similar contrivance which is adapted to lock the loading door in its closed position under the action of a moving arm associated to a delaying element of the positive temperature coefficient (PTC) type, as this is described for instance in the patent specification GB-A-2 128 283.
- PTC positive temperature coefficient
- Such a PTC-type element is energized electrically, so as to command the safety arrangement accordingly, through appropriately provided controlled-type switches which indesirably complicate the overall control system of the machine.
- switches may consist of appropriately provided contacts of the programme sequence control switch (in electromechanical solutions) or relays and/or Triacs (in electronic solutions), with corresponding driving and filter circuits associated thereto, which not only add to the overall costs of the product, but also reduce the reliability of the machine owing to the increased number of component parts subject to possible failure or breakdown.
- Another type of door interlock arrangement is defined as "instantaneous" due to the fact that the loading door can be opened immediately upon actuation of an electric control element, whereas the opening of the door will in any case only be allowed if the drum is not rotating any longer, the level of the water is below the lower edge of the door and the temperature of the water is below a given value (for instance, 40°C).
- Clothes washing machines are also generally known to be provided with a water flow distributing arrangement which, when directed by the programme sequence control switch to do so, diverts the flow of incoming water into the various compartments provided in the detergent dispenser to hold the detergents and the various additives and rinsing aids required to perform the washing process.
- the systems that have been used up to now to correctly shift or direct the water flow distributor in correspondence of the required compartment are based on logical position codings capable of being implemented and carried out in a variety of manners.
- the solution according to the present invention substantially proposes the use of the electronic switch, ie. the Triac, which is normally present in the clothes washing machine to control the motor driving the rotating drum, as a general element controlling various critical component parts of the machine, such as the PTC element of the door interlock arrangement and position contacts provided to control the distribution of the inlet water flow and identify the individual operating phases of the washing cycles which the machine is going through.
- the electronic switch ie. the Triac
- the Triac which is normally present in the clothes washing machine to control the motor driving the rotating drum
- various critical component parts of the machine such as the PTC element of the door interlock arrangement and position contacts provided to control the distribution of the inlet water flow and identify the individual operating phases of the washing cycles which the machine is going through.
- the reference numeral 1 is used to indicate the main on/off switch of the clothes washing machine
- the reference numeral 2 to indicate the electrical contact of the door interlock device
- the reference numeral 3 to indicate the PTC element of the door interlock arrangement
- the reference numeral 4 to indicate the electronic control module of the clothes washing machine
- the reference numeral 5 to indicate the general relay of the machine
- the reference numeral 6 to indicate a tachometer adapted to measure the revolutions per minute of the driving motor and, hence, of the rotating drum of the machine
- the reference numeral 7 to indicate the stator of the motor rotatably driving the rotating drum of the machine
- the reference numeral 8 to indicate the rotor of the same motor
- the reference numeral 9 to indicate the electric portion of the programme sequence control switch governing the operational elements of the clothes washing machine and, in particular, the inlet water flow distributing arrangement (not shown)
- the reference numeral 10 to indicate the power contacts of said programme sequence control switch
- the reference numeral 11 to indicate the wiping contacts equipping the programme sequence control
- the wiping contacts 11 are additionally used to identify, through counting, all of the electrical positions taken by the programme sequence control switch while going through the various cycles, as this will be explained in greater detail further on.
- Figure 2 which illustrates the electrical schematics of a clothes washing machine equipped with a door interlock arrangement of the instantaneous type
- the only variant appearing as compared to Figure 1 is represented by the coil 22 (which replaces the PTC element 3) of the door interlock arrangement and the corresponding electrical connection with the electronic control module 4.
- All other component parts are identical to the ones appearing in Figure 1, so that they are indicated using the same reference numerals.
- the PTC element 3 of the door interlock arrangement is connected to the Triac 19 via a connection terminal 24 of the electronic control module 4.
- the drum driving motor 7, 8, further to its normal connection with its corresponding Triac 19, via a contact 25 of the programme sequence control switch, and the reversing relay 16, is also connected, via said reversing relay 16, with the general relay 5 and the electric contact 2 of the door interlock arrangement, via a switch-over contact 26.
- the PTC element 3 be energized either continuously or intermittently, whereas in the latter case the interval shall however be shorter than its release time (usually ⁇ 1.5 minutes). By taking advantage of this delay time, it is therefore possible to keep the door locked by simply letting the drum of the washing machine rotate according to an appropriately selected rhythm.
- the solution according to the present invention enables the door to be kept locked even without the need for the drum to be driven. This is possible through the contact 26 being switched over so as to divert the power supply from the driving motor 7, 8 to the relay 5. In this particular situation, all other electric elements of the washing machine are de-energized, so that such a condition may be only brought about in well-determined phases of an operational cycle (for instance, in the "pre-soak" phase, in which the clothes, and in particular the delicate ones, have to be kept immersed in water for a certain period of time, without any rotation of the drum).
- the microprocessor 17 will activate the relay 5 by switching over the contact 26 so as to remove the power supply from the motor 7, 8.
- the door of the clothes washing machine will then be able to be opened after the inherent delay time of the PTC element 3 has been duly allowed to elapse.
- the relay 5 is de-energized (switch-over contact 26 in the position shown in Figure 1) and the Triac 19 is operating regularly, both the door interlock arrangement 2, 3 and all of the functional elements of the washing machine are activated.
- the drum driving motor 7, 8 is in this way de-energized and, upon the drum coming to a standstill, the microprocessor 17 will activate the relay 5 (by switching over the contact 26 from the position shown in Figure 2), thereby energizing the coil 22 that will open the switch 2 of the drum loading door.
- Such a solution enables, through only two 220-volt signals coming from the contacts 11, various positions corresponding to the main phases of the operational cycles of the machine (ie. pre-wash/rinses, main wash, drying, etc.) to be recognized. Within each one of such phases there may be several positions of electrical actuation which the microprocessor 17 is able to recognize through a simple counting starting from the first one.
- the microprocessor 17 is capable to recognize the starting position of a phase and can shift the corresponding actuator to the desired position; any subsequent shifting will be made forward and/or backward with respect to that position, using per sè known means, based on said counting.
- the microprocessor 17 will start from the current position and shift the inlet water flow distributor backward until a change of phase is read. This is needed by the microprocessor 17 in order to be able to identify the position in a univocal manner.
- a solution like this which may for instance comprise a mechanical phase indicator means (flange), arranged coaxially with respect to the camshaft of the programme sequence control switch, and a clutch means being adapted to only act when the shaft is rotated clockwise, enables such an identification of position to be made without altering the associated phase indication.
- the described solution enables various positions (of the inlet water flow distributor, the current cycle phase being performed, the electric contacts of the various functional elements of the machine, and the like) to be recognized by only using two connection lines to the microprocessor. Furthermore, the signals coming from the water flow distributor position contacts 11 are more reliable since the latter are energized with alternating current at 220 Volts reducing oxidation problems.
