Definitions

  • the invention relates to a trolley designed for handle the laundry between the different laundry stations, such as a sorting table, a washing machine, a dryer, a washing machine iron and / or a storage cabinet.
  • the invention also relates to a laundry equipped with trolleys of this type.
  • the invention applies to all types of laundries, from small laundries up to large capacity laundries.
  • the laundry sorted at the sorting station is directly put in bags which are hung on rails.
  • Rail support can then act as a scale to carry out the weighing the laundry in the bag.
  • a terminal input informs a central computer of the identity of the laundry lot contained in the bag.
  • the central computer then directs the bag towards a place of storage, then to a washing machine.
  • a washing machine To ensure fully automatic loading of the washing machine can tilt back while a chute is adjusting and the door of the machine opens. Washing information can be transmitted to the computer.
  • the door of the washing machine opens, while the machine switches forward.
  • the laundry is thus unloaded automatically in a carriage mounted on rails and fitted with a treadmill.
  • the whole is managed by the computer to come and stand in front of a dryer empty.
  • the dryer is automatically loaded and then unloaded in a third handling means.
  • the central computer knows every moment the situation of each load of laundry and may receive additional information from different machines.
  • This information is, for example, at the stage sorting, batch number, type of textile and weight of dry laundry, necessary to choose the right washing program.
  • washing parameters such as water level, temperature, duration and presence of products detergents were respected. he is also interesting to know the residual humidity in weighing the laundry.
  • the laundry load can then be fractional to be treated successively in a single dryer or simultaneously in several dryers.
  • the subject of the invention is precisely a linen handling trolley designed to ensure traceability of each batch and each fraction of a batch, so as to allow this function to be obtained as well in a small laundry as in a large capacity laundry
  • this result is obtained by means of a linen handling trolley between laundry stations, said cart being characterized in that it comprises means for storage of information and transmission terminals of this information.
  • the transmission terminals information transfer information either by electrical contact or by emission reception of electromagnetic waves such as infrared waves.
  • the carriage also comprises means weighing laundry.
  • the weight of the laundry as well measured can be transmitted to the machine that will process Laundry.
  • the cart can also include, incidentally, means for processing information it stores and stores transmission.
  • the cart also includes means for semi-automatic loading of linen into machines equipping the various stations.
  • These means loading can include, for example, a mat roller or tilting element.
  • the carriage also comprises means for adjusting the loading height, unloading the laundry, it being understood that the loading and unloading can be done on different sides or on the same side of the carriage.
  • the carriage also includes height locating means loading door unloading machines equipping the various stations.
  • the means of transmission also provide power to the energy cart.
  • the subject of the invention is also a laundry including several machines with loading doors unloading and at least one carriage as defined above, in which each machine includes an information exchange terminal, able to cooperate with the means of transmission cart information.
  • each machine comprises also a locating element, representative of the height of its loading and unloading door.
  • This tracking element is designed to cooperate with height marking means which equip each carriage.
  • the invention mainly relates to a trolley 10 designed to handle laundry between the different posts of a laundry.
  • the carriage 10 comprises, of conventionally, a chassis 11 provided with wheels 12, so that it can be moved on the floor of the laundry.
  • the chassis 11 of the carriage 10 supports storage means 14 information as well as transmission means 16 information.
  • the information concerned by the means of storage 14 and by the transmission means 16 may consist of any information in report with the linen transported on the carriage 10 and with the treatments undergone by this linen to the different laundry stations.
  • This information is, for example and without limitation, the batch number, the nature of the textile, the weight of the dry laundry, the weight damp laundry coming out of the washing machine, washing temperature and duration, water level, presence of detergents, the nature of the treatment undergone in the dryer, fractionation of the lot, etc.
  • Information storage means 14 may be constituted by any appropriate means such as that one or more electronic memories presenting sufficient capacity.
  • Means of transmitting information 16 are advantageously designed to also transmit energy such as electrical energy. This feature enables the carriage 10 to be supplied with energy from the machines that equip the various laundry stations, including during the loading and unloading phases of the laundry.
  • the means 16 of information transmission include terminals transmission of planned information, for example, on the front and / or rear faces of the carriage 10. These terminals 16 are designed to cooperate with terminals additional provided on the loading sides and / or unloading of the different machines installation.
  • Such complementary terminals are designated by the references 20a and 20b in the figure 3, respectively in the case of a washing machine 22 and in the case of a dryer 24.
  • the transmission terminals 16 and 20a, 20b operate either by electrical contact, either by emission reception of waves short-range electromagnetic such as waves infrared.
  • the frame 11 of the carriage 10 supports a receptacle 26 intended to receive a batch of laundry treat.
  • the bottom of the receptacle 26 is materialized by a conveyor belt 28 constituting a means of semi-automatic loading of machines such as the washing machine 22 and the dryer 24 which equip certain laundry stations.
  • a conveyor belt 28 constituting a means of semi-automatic loading of machines such as the washing machine 22 and the dryer 24 which equip certain laundry stations.
  • an actuation motor (not shown) of the treadmill 28 is supplied with energy by the terminal transmission of information 16.
  • the treadmill 28 is then driven in the direction of arrow F1, so as to route the batch of linen loaded on the trolley 10.
  • the receptacle 26 is mounted on the frame 11 so that you can switch between a position of loading illustrated in A and a position of unloading illustrated in B. In this case, it is the receptacle 26 as a whole which constitutes the means semi-automatic loading of different machines of the installation. Moving the receptacle 26 between its loading and unloading positions is controlled by an actuating motor (not shown), supplied with energy through the terminal transmission of information 16.
  • the carriage 10 is advantageously equipped with weighing means 30. These weighing means 30 are interposed between the receptacle 26 and the chassis 11 of the carriage 10. The weight of the laundry thus measured is transmitted by means of transmission of information 16 to the machine such as 22 or 24 in which the laundry will then be treated.
  • chassis 11 of the carriage 10 can also support means of processing 32 of the information stored in the storage means 14.
  • processing means 32 are formed by electronic circuits or by software capable of performing calculations determined from some of the information stored in the storage means 14.
  • the carriage 10 is advantageously equipped means for adjusting their loading height unloading.
  • These height adjustment means are integrated into the chassis 11 of the carriage. They can in particular include one or more electric cylinders 34, as illustrated schematically on the Figures 1 and 2. The cylinders 34 are supplied with energy across terminals 16 and 20a, 20b, when the carriage 10 is located near the machine corresponding.
