Definitions
- the present invention refers to a refrigeration appliance, in particular a deep freezer, provided with means adapted to indicate the storage life, ie. the useful preservability period, of various items that may be stored therein.
- EP-A-0 189 207 discloses a deep freezer that is provided with selector means adapted to drive a microprocessor with parameters corresponding to the nature or kind of associated items stored therein. Control means detect the time taken to bring the stored items down to their frozen state and drive the microprocessor with a corresponding second parameter. In response to the combination of said parameters, the microprocessor is then able to drive a display unit with a signal that is representative of the storage life, ie. preservability of the frozen items.
- Such a solution enables the user to be automatically informed on the theoretical expiry date of the items stored in the freezer on the basis of the main parameters that actually determine the same expiry with a related decay in the organoleptic, bromatologic, bacteriologic and similar characteristics thereof.
- variations in temperature and/or humidity may be brought about at any moment by any of a number of different events and occurrences, such as for instance a temporary malfunction in the operation of the refrigeration appliance, repeated and/or extended openings of the door thereof, an altered frequency of automatic defrost cycles and the like.
- refrigeration appliances In order to limit the risks incurred by the user, refrigeration appliances have been proposed which are adapted to detect and indicate any possible excessive and extended, albeit temporary, temperature rise in the compartment in which the items are stored. The indication of the so detected irregular condition persists until the associated control means are reset.
- Such a solution provides a kind of indication that is certainly sure and reliable, but unavoidably generic, so that the user is not in a position to either evaluate the actual extent or nature of the decay suffered by the stored items or, for the matter, discriminate between the items that have actually suffered a deterioration and the ones that can on the contrary be still used to some extent.
- a possible variation in storage temperature and/or humidity generally affects the different stored items (eg. meat and vegetables) to a varying extent; furthermore, it can take place as an event of limited intensity and/or duration, such as to somehow alter the preservability of the items, without however fully spoiling it.
- a refrigeration appliance of the above cited kind which is capable of providing an accurate, sure and reliable indication of the storage life, ie. preservability of the therein stored items, in view of enabling the same items to be possibly used selectively in an appropriate manner.
- the refrigeration appliance can be noticed to be for instance constituted by a deep freezer 3, although it will be appreciated that it may also be constituted by a refrigerator, or even a refrigerator/freezer combination, provided with an access door 7.
- the appliance 3 is preferably of the type comprising a (generally known and not shown) refrigerating circuit of the compressor type, adapted to keep at least a compartment 4 intended for the storage of items, such as for instance foodstuffs, at a pre-determined average temperature, eg. -18°C.
- the refrigerating circuit is operated automatically, in a traditional manner, by a control device 5, preferably of a per sè known electronic type, which is driven by a plurality of sensors which are indicated generally at 6 in Figure 2 and are adapted to detect, in said storage compartment 4, respective operational parameters or quantities, such as the temperature and/or the humidity of the air, the temperature of the evaporator of the refrigerating circuit, the opening of the door 7, and the like.
- the control device 5 communicates via a connection 8 with a control unit 9 which may for instance comprise a Motorola 68HC05B16 or similar microprocessor.
- control unit 9 is associated to a non-volatile mass-storage memory 10, such as for instance a magnetic disc or a solid-state memory of the flash or Eeprom type.
- the unit 9 is adapted to drive at least a display device 11, preferably of the graphic type, and to be driven with coded signals from a data input device 12, such as a keyboard or the like.
- the user can drive the unit 9, via said keyboard or similar means 12, with data that are indicative of the chemical-physical characteristics of the same items, such as for instance the nature (ie. meat, vegetables, etc.) and the quantity (weight and/or volume) thereof.
- the data so fed into the unit 9 are stored in the associated memory 10 and possibly made visible on the display 11.
- the unit 9 is further driven by the control device 5 with the operational parameters detected by the sensors 6.
- the microprocessor 9 is so set as to be able to combine the data stored in the memory 10 with the operational parameters entered by the control device 5, such as the temperature and the humidity in the storage compartment 4, the time taken by the refrigeration appliance to bring the items placed in the same compartment down to a frozen state, the number and/or the duration of the openings of the door 7, and the like.
- the unit 9 drives the display 11 in such a manner as to indicate the respective expiry date that is expected as a result of the afore mentioned combination of characteristic data and operational parameters.
- the microprocessor 9 is adapted to carry out the afore cited combination of characteristic data and operational parameters repeatedly throughout the operation of the appliance, ie. preferably periodically, eg. every second, so as to be able to correspondingly update the expiry date expected for each stored item and indicated on the display 11.
- the refrigeration appliance according to the present invention enables the correct expiry date, as calculated repeatedly throughout the operation time of the same appliance by taking each time into account all possible significant variations in the operational parameters and, therefore, in the actual storage conditions, to be indicated on the display 11 for each item stored in the compartment 4.
- This again advantageously enables the user to be reliably informed at any moment on the actual expiry date of all items stored in said compartment 4.
- the unit 9 may be adapted to also drive appropriate alarm indicators adapted to signal the impending (or already occurred) expiry of one or more items.
- the unit 9 and the control device 5 may be implemented in a mutually integrated form, and the keyboard 12 will preferably comprise a key for cancelling the data concerning items that are removed from the compartment 4.
- connection 8 between the control device 5 and the unit 9 may be implemented in the form of a cable, radio-frequency, infrared or similar connection channel, thereby enabling the unit 9 and the associated devices 10-12 to be installed remotely.
