Ca. 50% aller Waschautomaten und Trockner befinden sich außerhalb des Wohnraums. Beim Gebrauch eines solchen Haushaltgerätes ist es für den Benutzer vorteilhaft, auch außerhalb vom Aufstellungsraum des Gerätes eine Information über den Programmfortschritt oder die Restlaufzeit des von ihm eingestellten Programms zu erhalten. Auch bei anderen Geräten, z. B. Herden, Kühlschränken und Geschirrspülautomaten besteht der Wunsch nach einer standortunabhängigen Kontrolle.Approx. 50% of all washing machines and dryers are outside the living room. At the Using such a household appliance, it is advantageous for the user, even outside from the installation room of the device information about the program progress or To get the remaining time of the program set by him.

Aus der DE 34 04 211 ist eine Anzeigevorrichtung bekannt, bei der das Steuergerät eines Haushaltgerätes Überwachungsfunktionen als kodierte elektrische Signale über die Netzstrom-Leitung an einen Überwachungsempfänger sendet. Eine gleichzeitige Überwachung verschiedener Haushaltgeräte soll durch Benutzung von mehreren Sendekanälen und ein Auswahlschaltwerk im Empfänger realisiert werden. Der Nachteil der vorgenannten Anzeigevorrichtung besteht zum einen in der Abhängigkeit von einem Leitungssystem. Hierdurch wird die Mobilität des Betrachters erheblich eingeschränkt. Außerdem ist gerade die Netzstrom-Leitung sehr anfällig für Störungen durch überlagerte Übertragungen aus Nachbarhäusern, sei es durch gleiche Geräte, Babyphon oder CB-Funk. Zum anderen ist die Verwendung eines Auswahlschaltwerks technisch aufwendig und kann dazu führen, daß die Kontrolle einzelner Geräte vergessen wird.From DE 34 04 211 a display device is known, in which the control unit Household appliance monitoring functions as coded electrical signals via the mains power line sends to a monitoring receiver. Simultaneous monitoring of different Household appliances are said to use multiple transmission channels and a selector switch can be realized in the receiver. The disadvantage of the aforementioned display device consists on the one hand of the dependency on a pipe system. This makes mobility of the viewer considerably restricted. In addition, the mains power line is particularly vulnerable for interference due to overlaid transmissions from neighboring houses, be it from the same Devices, baby monitor or CB radio. The other is the use of a Selector switch technically complex and can lead to the control of individual Devices is forgotten.
Die aus dem DE-GM 18 95 053 bekannte Waschmaschine verwendet einen Impulssender und eine Anzeigevorrichtung mit einem Impulsempfänger, um den Zeiger eines Schaltwerks in Abhängigkeit vom Programmstatus zu steuern. Hiermit ist keine Überwachung von verschiedenen Haushaltgeräten möglich.The washing machine known from DE-GM 18 95 053 uses a pulse transmitter and a display device with a pulse receiver, depending on the pointer of a derailleur to control from program status.

Damit kann der Adreßcode zusätzlich in einem nichtflüchtigen Speicher der Anzeigesteuerung abgelegt und von dort über die Schnittstelle in den nichtflüchtigen Speicher der elektronischen Programmsteuerung überschrieben werden.The address code can thus also be stored in a non-volatile memory of the display control stored and from there via the interface into the non-volatile memory of the electronic Program control are overwritten.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird die Schnittstelle zwischen der elektronischen Programmsteuerung und der Anzeigesteuerung dazu benutzt, Prozeßparameter auszutauschen. Hierdurch kann die Anzeigevorrichtung als Speicher- und Übertragungsmedium für ein Updating von Programmen benutzt werden, d. h., es können aktuelle Prozeßparameter von neuen Steuerungsgenerationen in Geräte älteren Herstelldatums überschrieben werden.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the interface between the electronic program control and display control used to process parameters exchange. As a result, the display device can be used as a storage and transmission medium be used for updating programs, d. that is, current process parameters overwritten by new control generations in devices with older manufacturing dates become.
Daneben ist es vorteilhaft, die Anzeigevorrichtung mit einem LC-Display auszustatten, in welchem die Informationen, die die einzelnen Geräte betreffen, zyklisch in festgelegter Reihenfolge dargestellt werden. Hierdurch erhält der Benutzer ohne weiteres Zutun nacheinander Informationen über alle in Betrieb befindlichen Geräte.In addition, it is advantageous to equip the display device with an LC display, in which the information relating to the individual devices cyclically in a defined order being represented. As a result, the user receives information in succession without further action over all devices in operation.
Eine andere vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung beinhaltet, daß die Anzeigesteuerung eine separate Ablaufsteuerung besitzt, welche bei Unterbrechung der Verbindung zur Sendeeinrichtung über einen vorbestimmten Zeitraum eine selbsttätige Aktualisierung der Anzeige vornimmt. Durch Verwendung von Daten von Standardprogrammen kann so durch das Herunterzählen der Restzeit eine relativ genau geschätzte Anzeige des Programmstatus geboten werden.Another advantageous development of the invention includes that the display control a has separate sequence control, which when the connection to the transmitter is interrupted automatically updates the display over a predetermined period of time.

Daneben ist es vorteilhaft, der Programmsteuerung ein weitere Empfangseinrichtung im Geräteinneren zuzuordnen. Hierdurch kann eine Datenübertragung zur Kommunikation verschiedener Haushaltgeräte untereinander benutzt werden. Damit können Waschmaschinen, Trockner, Geschirrspülautomaten und Herde ihre Heizphasen oder Programmstarts so koordinieren, daß eine bestimmte Leistungsaufnahme aus dem Netz nicht überschritten wird. Dies hat wiederum den Vorteil, daß mehrere Geräte an einem einzigen Netzstromkreis betrieben werden können. Außerdem kann durch ein "Time Sharing" der Heizungen der Spitzenverbrauch vermindert werden. In addition, it is advantageous to program control another receiver inside the device assign. As a result, data transmission for communication different Household appliances are used with each other. This enables washing machines, dryers, Dishwashers and cookers coordinate their heating phases or program starts so that a certain power consumption from the network is not exceeded. This in turn has the advantage that several devices can be operated on a single mains circuit can. In addition, a "time sharing" of the heaters can reduce the peak consumption become.

Figur 1 zeigt schematisch die Funktionsweise bei erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Haushaltgeräten, im dargestellten Beispiel bei einem Herd (1), einem Geschirrspülautomaten (2) und einem Waschautomaten (3). Diese Haushaltgeräte besitzen alle folgenden prinzipiellen Aufbau:FIG. 1 schematically shows the mode of operation in household appliances designed according to the invention, in the example shown with a stove (1), an automatic dishwasher (2) and a washing machine (3). These household appliances all have the following basic structure:
Im oberen Frontbereich der Geräte ist eine Bedienblende (4;4';4") mit Schaltelementen (5,5',5") zur Auswahl eines Programms und/oder speziellen Funktionen angeordnet. Von dort werden Schaltbefehle über Steuerleitungen (6;6';6") an eine Mikroprozessorsteuerung (7;7';7") weitergegeben, die sie dann in entsprechende Programme umsetzt. Dazu beeinflußt die Mikroprozessorsteuerung (7;7';7") zeitabhängig und zustandsabhängig verschiedene gerätespezifische Aktoren des Haushaltgerätes, in der Regel Heizungen (8) und Motoren (9). Die Steuergrößen sind teilweise als feste Prozeßparameter in einem ROM (10;10';10") und teilweise als veränderbare Prozeßparameter in einem ersten programmierbaren, nichtflüchtigen Speicher, beispielsweise einem E2PROM (11;11';11") abgelegt. In einem zweiten E2PROM (12;12';12") ist ein Adreßcode abgespeichert, dessen Funktion später erklärt wird. Neben den Schaltelementen (5;5';5") besitzt die Bedienblende (4;4',4") Anzeigeelemente (13;13';13"), welche dem Benutzer Informationen darstellen, die mit der Programmwahl und dem Programmablauf zusammenhängen. Auch diese werden von der Mikroprozessorsteuerung (7;7';7'') in bekannter Weise angesteuert.A control panel (4; 4 '; 4 ") with switching elements (5.5', 5") for selecting a program and / or special functions is arranged in the upper front area of the devices. From there, switching commands are passed on via control lines (6; 6 '; 6 ") to a microprocessor control (7; 7';7"), which they then convert into corresponding programs. For this purpose, the microprocessor control (7; 7 '; 7 ") influences time-dependent and state-dependent various device-specific actuators of the household appliance, usually heaters (8) and motors (9). The control variables are partly as fixed process parameters in a ROM (10; 10'; 10 ") and partially stored as changeable process parameters in a first programmable, non-volatile memory, for example an E 2 PROM (11; 11 ';11"). In a second E 2 PROM (12; 12'; 12 ") is a Address code saved, the function of which will be explained later. In addition to the switching elements (5; 5 '; 5 "), the control panel (4; 4', 4") has display elements (13; 13 '; 13 ") which show the user information that is related to the program selection and the program sequence. These are also controlled in a known manner by the microprocessor control (7; 7 ';7'').
Von der Mikroprozessorsteuerung (7;7';7") sind erfindungsgemäß weitere Steuerleitungen (14;14';14'') an einen Stecker (15) im Bereich der Bedienblende (4;4';4") geführt. Desweiteren befindet sich dort eine Halterung (16), in die ein Sender (17;17';17") eingesetzt und mit dem Stecker (15) kontaktiert werden kann (s. Figur 3). Die Halterung ist durch eine Abdeckplatte (18) verschließbar, so daß der Stecker (15) und der Sender (17;17';17") vor Verschmutzungen und Tropfwasser geschützt werden. Der vorbeschriebene Aufbau ermöglicht dem Benutzer einen eigenhändigen nachträglichen Einbau des Senders (17;17';17'') in das Gerät (1;2;3). Bei Geschirrspülmaschinen (2), die als Einbaugeräte oft mit einer abnehmbaren Bedienblende (4') ausgestattet sind, kann der Stecker in einem Aufnahmekasten (nicht dargestellt) hinter der Bedienblende (4') angeordnet sein. Bei Einbauherden (1) oder Einbaubackofen wiederum ist es vorteilhaft, den Aufnahmekasten samt Stecker auf der Backmuffel (19) hinter der Bedienblende (4'') anzuordnen. Zum Einbau des Senders (17") ist dann die Verbindung zum Möbelgehäuse zu lösen und das Gerät nach vom zu ziehen (nicht dargestellt).According to the invention, further control lines are from the microprocessor control (7; 7 '; 7 ") (14; 14 '; 14' ') to a plug (15) in the area of the control panel (4; 4'; 4 "). Furthermore there is a holder (16) into which a transmitter (17; 17 '; 17 ") is inserted and can be contacted with the plug (15) (see FIG. 3). The bracket is through a cover plate (18) closable, so that the plug (15) and the transmitter (17; 17 '; 17 ") from contamination and drip water are protected. The structure described above enables the user a subsequent installation of the transmitter (17; 17 '; 17' ') into the Device (1; 2; 3). In dishwashers (2), which are often built-in devices with a removable Control panel (4 ') are equipped, the plug in a receiving box (not shown) be arranged behind the control panel (4 '). With built-in cookers (1) or built-in oven again, it is advantageous to place the receptacle and plug on the baking muffle (19) behind the control panel (4 ''). Then to install the transmitter (17 ") Loosen the connection to the furniture housing and pull the device forward (not shown).
Der Sender (17;17';17") besitzt innerhalb von Gebäuden eine Reichweite von ca. 30 Metem, im Freien ca. 300 Meter; die Sendefrequenz beträgt 433 MHz.The transmitter (17; 17 '; 17 ") has a range of approximately 30 meters within buildings, outdoors approx. 300 meters; the transmission frequency is 433 MHz.
Von den Sendem (17;17';17'') der verschiedenen Geräte (1;2;3) werden Informationsdaten zu einer mobilen Ablaufanzeige (20) übertragen. Diese dient dem Benutzer zur Abfrage von Informationen über alle in Betrieb befindlichen Geräte. Sie besitzt hierzu einen Empfänger (21), eine Anzeigesteuerung (22) ein Display (23) und einen Summer (24) (s. a. Figur 4).Information data is sent from the transmitters (17; 17 '; 17' ') of the various devices (1; 2; 3) a mobile progress display (20) transmitted. This is used by the user to query information over all devices in operation. For this purpose, it has a receiver (21), a display control (22), a display (23) and a buzzer (24) (see also FIG. 4).
Die Figuren 2a-d zeigen die mobile Ablaufanzeige (20) in verschiedenen Darstellungen. Sie ist in ein zweischaliges Kunststoffgehäuse (25a,b) eingefaßt und besitzt eine Klappe (26) zur Aufnahme eines Energieträgers (Akku oder Batterie, nicht dargestellt). Ein Clip (27) ermöglicht das Anstecken an ein Kleidungsstück, eine abgeschrägte Unterseite (28) ein Abstellen auf einer Ebene mit guter Einsicht auf das Display (23). Das Display (23) ist als LC-Display (23) ausgebildet, dessen einzeln ansteuerbare Segmente die Darstellung einer Textzeile (29) und einer Zeit (30) ermöglichen. Außerdem ist der Gerätetyp (31), ein Symbol (32) für die Verbindung zum Sender (17;17';17'') und bei Unterspannung der Ladezustand (nicht dargestellt) des Akkus oder der Batterie darstellbar.Figures 2a-d show the mobile sequence display (20) in various representations. she is enclosed in a double-shell plastic housing (25a, b) and has a flap (26) for Inclusion of an energy source (battery or battery, not shown). A clip (27) enables plugging into a piece of clothing, a slanted underside (28) for parking a level with a good view of the display (23). The display (23) is an LC display (23) trained, the individually controllable segments the representation of a text line (29) and enable one time (30). In addition, the device type (31) is a symbol (32) for the connection to the transmitter (17; 17 '; 17' ') and in case of undervoltage the state of charge (not shown) of the accumulator or the battery can be displayed.
Die nähere Funktionsweise der Anzeigevorrichtung bei einem Waschautomaten (3) ist anhand der Darstellung einer Bedienblende (4) (Figur 3) erklärt. Nach dem Einschalten der Maschine mit dem "Ein/Aus"-Druckschalter (33) leuchten die den Programmtasten (34) zugehörigen LED's (35) auf, um den Benutzer darauf hinzuweisen, welche Programme gewählt werden können. Dies sind die Programme:
- Koch-/Buntwäsche
- Pflegeleicht
- Pflegeleicht Fein
- Wolle
- Miniprogramm
- Stärken
- Hot wash Coloureds
- Easy care
- Fine and easy to care
- Wool
- Applet
- Strengthen
Wird ein Programm angewählt, bleibt die zugehörige LED (35) eingeschaltet. Mit einer zweiten Reihe von Tasten (36) können Zusatzfunktionen angewählt werden. Eine angewählte Zusatzfunktion wird durch Aufleuchten der jeweiligen LED (37) quittiert. Bei Betätigen einer nicht erlaubten Zusatzfunktion leuchtet die zugehörige LED (37) auf und erlischt, sobald die Taste (36) wieder losgelassen wird. Mittels "+" und "-" Tasten (38;39) können Temperaturen (40) und Schleuderdrehzahlen (41) in dem vom Programm zugelassenen Grenzen eingestellt werden. Nach erfolgter Programmwahl kann durch Betätigen der Taste (40) "Startvorwahl" eine Verzögerungszeit eingestellt werden. Die LED (41) "Startvorwahl" neben einem Display (42) wird angesteuert. Im Display (42) erscheint die eingestellte Verzögerungszeit. Danach kann das Programm durch die "START"-Taste (43) gestartet werden. Die Zeitvorwahl wird im Minutentakt heruntergezählt. Nach Ablauf der Verzögerungszeit startet das Programm. Die LED (41) "Startvorwahl" neben dem Display (42) erlischt, es leuchtet die LED (44) "Restzeit". In der Ablaufanzeige (45) wird der jeweilige Programmabschnitt angezeigt.If a program is selected, the associated LED (35) remains on. With a second Additional functions can be selected using a series of buttons (36). A selected additional function is acknowledged by the respective LED (37) lighting up. If one is not pressed permitted additional function, the associated LED (37) lights up and goes out as soon as the Button (36) is released again. Temperatures can be set using the "+" and "-" buttons (38; 39) (40) and spin speeds (41) within the limits permitted by the program become. After the program has been selected, pressing the button (40) "Delay start" a delay time can be set. The LED (41) "Delay start" next to one Display (42) is activated. The set delay time appears on the display (42). Then the program can be started with the "START" button (43). The time delay is counted down every minute. The program starts after the delay time has expired. The LED (41) "Delay start" next to the display (42) goes out, the LED (44) lights up "Remaining time". The respective program section is shown in the sequence display (45).
Figur 4 zeigt die für die Datenübertragung wesentlichen Bauteile bei einem Waschautomaten (3). Während des Programmablaufs gibt die Mikroprozessorsteuerung (7) in zyklischen Abständen einen Datentsatz mit der Länge von 15 Byte an den Sender (17) weiter, der ihn dann in das nachstehend dargestellte Protokoll umwandelt und mit einer Baudrate von 1200 oder 2400 Baud abgibt.FIG. 4 shows the components essential for data transmission in a washing machine (3). During the course of the program, the microprocessor control (7) is cyclical Intervals a data record with the length of 15 bytes on to the transmitter (17), which it then converted to the protocol shown below and with a baud rate of 1200 or 2400 baud.
Die ersten drei Bytes (Burst) dienen zur Initialisierung der Anzeigesteuerung (22) in der mobilen Ablaufanzeige (20). Danach wird der im E2PROM (12) abgelegte Adreßcode übermittelt. In einem Speicher (46) der Anzeigesteuerung (22) ist ebenfalls ein Adreßcode abgelegt. Eine in der Anzeigesteuerung (22) integrierte Auswerteschaltung (47) vergleicht die Adreßcodes und läßt nur diejenigen Sendeprotokolle zur Weiterverarbeitung zu, bei denen Übereinstimmung festgestellt wird. Hierdurch kann die Anzeige auf eine vom Benutzer getroffene Auswahl von Haushaltgeräten (1;2;3) beschränkt werden. Auf diese Weise sind Störungen durch funktionsgleiche Geräte in Nachbarhaushalten ausgeschlossen. Für Kundendiensttechniker kann ein Master-Empfänger ohne Auswerteschaltung eingerichtet werden (nicht dargestellt). Mit diesem können alle Geräte ausgewertet und damit eine eventuelle Fehlerquelle zwischen Sender und Empfänger bestimmt werden.The first three bytes (burst) are used to initialize the display control (22) in the mobile sequence display (20). The address code stored in the E 2 PROM (12) is then transmitted. An address code is also stored in a memory (46) of the display control (22). An evaluation circuit (47) integrated in the display control (22) compares the address codes and only allows those transmission protocols for further processing in which agreement is found. As a result, the display can be limited to a selection of household appliances (1; 2; 3) made by the user. In this way, malfunctions caused by devices with the same function in neighboring households are excluded. For customer service technicians, a master receiver can be set up without an evaluation circuit (not shown). With this, all devices can be evaluated and a possible source of error between the transmitter and receiver can be determined.
Der Adreßcode kann vom Benutzer selbst in das E2PROM (12) des jeweiligen Geräts eingegeben
und auch geändert werden. Die Eingabe erfolgt per Programmierfunktion. Hierzu wird
das Gerät durch eine bestimmte Schalter-/Tastenkombination in Eingabebereitschaft versetzt,
danach erfolgt durch eine andere Tastenkombination die Dateneingabe. Eine andere, für den
Benutzer bequemere Eingabemöglichkeit sieht eine optische Schnittstelle zwischen der Mikroprozessorsteuerung
und der Anzeigesteuerung (22) vor. Beim Gerät kann beispielsweise die
"Überdosiert"-LED (48) in einer aus der DE 44 42 967 bekannten Art und Weise benutzt werden,
an der mobilen Ablaufanzeige (20) muß eine LED (49) als "Sender" vorgesehen werden.
Durch zyklisches Ausstrahlen des Adreßcodes vom Speicher (46) über die LED (49) ist gewährleistet,
daß der Benutzer nur noch die beiden Teile der Schnittstelle (48;49) zusammenbringen
muß, um den Adreßcode zu überschreiben. Außer zur Eingabe des Adreßcodes kann
die Schnittstelle (48;49) in Verbindung mit einem in der Anzeigesteuerung (22) angeordneten
E2PROM (50) auch für ein Update der Programmdaten im E2PROM (11) des Waschautomaten
(3) genutzt werden.The address code can be entered and changed by the user in the E 2 PROM (12) of the respective device. The input is made using the programming function. For this purpose, the device is set to ready for input by a certain switch / key combination, then another key combination is used to enter the data. Another input option that is more convenient for the user provides an optical interface between the microprocessor control and the display control (22). In the device, for example, the "overdosed" LED (48) can be used in a manner known from
Hierauf folgen die für die Anzeige relevanten Daten, nämlich der Gerätetyp, die Restzeit und der Gerätestatus. Als Gerätestatus werden folgende Informationen gesendet:
- Im Betriebszustand der aktuelle Programmschritt
- Bei Auftreten eines Fehlers zunächst ein Warnsignal, danach die Art des Fehlers
- Zum Programmende ein Warnsignal
- The current program step in the operating state
- If an error occurs, first a warning signal, then the type of error
- A warning signal at the end of the program
Bei Kühlgeräten kann auf die Übermittlung von Zeitdaten und Daten über den ablaufenden Programmschritt oder das Programmende verzichtet werden. Hier wird die gemessene Kühltemperatur gesendet und, wenn diese den Einstellwert um eine vorgegebene Differenz überschreitet, ein Warnsignal ausgelöst. In cooling devices, the transmission of time data and data about the expiring Program step or the end of the program. Here is the measured cooling temperature sent and, if this exceeds the set value by a predetermined difference, triggered a warning signal.
Die letzten zwei Bytes bilden eine Checksumme und werden zur Erkennung und Beseitigung von Übertragungsfehlern benutzt.The last two bytes form a checksum and are used for detection and elimination used by transmission errors.
Die Daten werden zyklisch aktualisiert. Wird die Übertragung unterbrochen, so daß über einen vorbestimmten Zeitraum, beispielsweise 60 Sekunden, keine gültigen Informationen empfangen werden, wird das Display (23) selbständig aktualisiert. Hierzu besitzt die Anzeigesteuerung (22) eine separate Ablaufsteuerung (51), welche dann eine selbsttätige Aktualisierung der Anzeige vomimmt. Zu diesem Zweck wird die Restzeit von einem Zeitmodul (52) heruntergezählt und es werden gespeicherte Standardprogrammschritte in Abhängigkeit von der jeweils angezeigten Restzeit zur Anzeige gebracht. Das Übertragungssymbol (32) auf dem Display (23) wird gelöscht. Der Benutzer wird den Übertragungsverlust dann nur durch die fehlende Anzeige des Symbols (32) im Display (23) merken. Eine in den Zeichnungen nicht dargestellte Ausführungsform benutzt das Zeitmodul (52) zusätzlich dazu, wechselweise zum Programmablauf die Tageszeit mitzuteilen.The data is updated cyclically. If the transmission is interrupted so that over a predetermined period, for example 60 seconds, received no valid information the display (23) is updated automatically. For this purpose, the display control has (22) a separate sequence control (51), which then automatically updates of the ad. For this purpose, the remaining time is counted down by a time module (52) and there are saved standard program steps depending on the displayed remaining time. The transmission symbol (32) on the display (23) is deleted. The user is then only lost due to the lack of transmission Note the display of the symbol (32) on the display (23). One not shown in the drawings Embodiment uses the time module (52) in addition, alternating with the program flow to tell the time of day.
Das Display (23) zeigt bei korrektem Programmablauf den Programmschritt (53) und die Restzeit (54) an. Werden mehrere Sender mit dem richtigen Adreßcode empfangen, erfolgt die Anzeige für die einzelnen Geräte wechselweise und es wird zusätzlich der Gerätetyp (31) dargestellt (s. Figur 5a-d). Tritt ein Fehler im Programmablauf auf, wird das vom Sender ausgestrahlte Warnsignal vom Summer (24) in ein Tonsignal umgewandelt.When the program is running correctly, the display (23) shows the program step (53) and the remaining time (54). If several stations with the correct address code are received, the display is shown for the individual devices alternately and the device type (31) is also shown (see Figure 5a-d). If an error occurs in the program sequence, the one broadcast by the transmitter Warning signal from the buzzer (24) converted into a sound signal.
Figur 6 zeigt die Bedienblende (4) einer anderen Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Waschautomaten. Neben den Bedienelementen ist in der Schalterblende eine Aufnahmeöffnung (55) für die mobile Ablaufanzeige (20) integriert. Sie befindet sich in ihrer Ruhestellung in der Aufnahmeöffnung (55) und kann von dort nach dem Kugelschreiberprinzip durch Druck auf seine nach außen gerichtete Gehäuseseite entnommen werden. Der hierzu erforderliche Mechanismus ist beispielsweise bei Fernbedienungen von Fernsehern oder Videorecordern bekannt und wird deshalb nicht näher erläutert.Figure 6 shows the control panel (4) of another embodiment of an invention trained washing machines. In addition to the controls, there is one in the switch panel Receiving opening (55) for the mobile process display (20) integrated. It is in hers Rest position in the receiving opening (55) and can work from there according to the ballpoint pen principle can be removed by pressing on its outward-facing side of the housing. The one for this required mechanism is for example with remote controls of televisions or Video recorders known and will therefore not be explained in detail.
Auf der ins Geräteinnere zeigenden Gehäusefläche ist eine Kontaktstelle angeordnet, die mit dem Akku in Verbindung steht. Die Stromzufuhr für den Akku kann über eine Ladevorrichtung innerhalb der Waschmaschine erfolgen, wobei die elektrische Verbindung über Ladekontakte in der Kontaktstelle hergestellt wird. Auf diese Weise kann der Energiespeicher in Ruhestellung aufgeladen werden. (nicht dargestellt)A contact point is arranged on the housing surface pointing into the interior of the device the battery is connected. The power supply for the battery can be via a charger done inside the washing machine, the electrical connection via charging contacts is produced in the contact point. In this way, the energy store can be at rest to be charged. (not shown)
