Definitions
- the invention relates to an operating device according to the preamble of claim 1 and an associated operating method for an electrical appliance or an electrical household appliance, in particular a cooking system.
- a cooking system is here in particular a hob and / or an oven or a stove.
- capacitive or optical control or switching elements are often used, which are preferably arranged under a control panel, such as a glass ceramic hob, with a control surface. These switching elements detect whether, for example, a finger is on a control surface or not. Sliding button or the like can be realized with this type of controls only when several of the controls are arranged one behind the other. This requires a considerable amount of space and high costs.
- EP-A-446642 shows in general form a touch switch with reflex light barrier consisting of a light emitter and a light receiver. If a finger is above the light emitter so that light is reflected to the light receiver, a touch operation of the touch switch can be detected. The contact is essentially determined only punctiform or within a small area.
- the object of the invention is to provide an operating device for an electrical appliance and an associated operating method, with which the disadvantages of the prior art can be avoided and in particular allows safe operation of a household electrical appliance and increases the ease of use.
- the invention is based on the idea of arranging under the operating surface an optical recording device, for example a camera, as part of a motion sensor which detects at least one movement or contact point on the operating surface. It determines a position and / or a change in position of the movement or contact point on the operating surface. To activate an operating function, the position or the position change of the contact point is evaluated. So if a finger is on or on a specific point of the control panel is placed or moved, this is detected and linked to a specific operating function.
- an optical recording device for example a camera
- an operating element or a recording device can be realized, which can resolve the position and / or the position change of the operation, for example by a finger, in many stages, for example in 10 to 50 stages.
- actuations or movements can be detected both in the x and in the y direction.
- the optical recording device has a limited resolution, for example in rastered steps, as mentioned above. It can be a kind of line resolution camera.
- the illumination enhances detection of motion or or touch on or on the control panel.
- the lighting can be done in many ways.
- control surface is designed as a row and / or as a multi-row field, in particular with several lines.
- Each control surface can be provided with its own function, which can be made clear, for example, by printed symbols.
- the optical recording device can scan the operating surface continuously or at fixed time intervals.
- the sampling with temporal Distances has the advantage that the evaluation is easier because the amount of data is less.
- the position and / or the change in position of the movement or of the contact point on the operating surface can be determined by an image comparison of images of the operating surface successively produced by the optical recording device.
- the optical recording device for example, be designed as a camera, wherein the Camera can be advantageously realized by a CCD chip. It can have its sensitivity maximum in the infrared range and be operated therein.
- a receiving device can be used, as it is otherwise used in so-called optical computer mice, advantageously with the least possible structural changes. This results in a very cost-effective arrangement.
- control surface To detect the boundary of the control surface, it may be illuminated, for example in the IR range, advantageously also from above.
- the cover of a contact point against the lighting can also be evaluated as an operator, which can increase the operator safety. This also applies to movements.
- the operating method according to the invention for a cooking system determines after detection of a movement or contact point on a control panel a position and / or a movement of the point of contact with a camera. Subsequently, the position and / or the movement of the contact point is evaluated and activated depending on the evaluation result, an operating function.
- FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an operating device.
- an operating device 11 arranged on a hob 1 comprises an operating surface 2, a camera 3 as an optical receiving device and an evaluation unit 4.
- a finger 13 is placed on the operating surface 2 at a specific location.
- an optical lens 7 is arranged as an optical system. The lens 7 expands the field of view of the camera 3, as it were, so that the operating surface has as many individual surfaces as the camera does from the resolution, but these individual surfaces are larger. Such a lens 7 is easy to select for a person skilled in the art.
- a lighting 8 is shown symbolically from below for the control surface 2. It can also be designed in many ways, advantageously in turn similar to what is known as optical computer mice. It can also be connected to the camera 3 or the controller 4, for example for controlling with regard to illumination intensity.
- the illustrated control surface 2 is designed as a row with multiple points of contact, in the present case 10 points of contact. These are marked on the surface, as can be seen from the drawing.
- the number of pixels of the line may be, for example, 10 or 32, 64 or 128 depending on the need and the desired resolution.
- the control surface can be approx. 5x5cm 2 or also 6x1 cm 2 in size. It can also be provided as a field several lines.
- the control surface 2 can be illuminated to detect its limits and also a touch by the optional illumination unit 15 shown at the top right. The lighting is from below.
- the camera 3 with the line 5 shown symbolically at the top recognizes a point of contact on the operating surface 2, for example by the finger 13, which is moved toward the operating surface 2 from above or is placed on the contact point on the operating surface.
- the camera 3 makes about 150 images per second, which are evaluated by the evaluation unit 4 in terms of changes, for example by a comparison of images taken in succession. It can also take much less pictures to reduce the processing cost, for example, 10 to 20 per second.
- the recording frequency may also depend on whether a change in the condition occurs at all. Then it can change from relatively long distances to short distances.
- the evaluation unit 4 determines the position and / or a change in position of the contact point.
- a certain point of contact can be assigned a specific function, in particular a switching function. This may be, for example, an ON or OFF switching function. If there is a movement, it can be determined on the basis of the comparison of the images in which direction the object or the finger 13 has been moved and how fast. Depending on the evaluation result, the evaluation unit 4 activates an operating function assigned to the position and / or the position change.
- the camera 3 is designed as a CCD camera, which may be embodied for example as a CCD chip with 17x17 lines. An enlargement or extension of the recording field of the camera 3 is possible through the lens 7 or other optical systems such as mirrors or the like.
- a faulty or incorrectly recognized operating input can be signaled for example by flashing the control surface and / or a corresponding signal.
- an exemplary operating device for a cooking system with a hob and a control surface under the control surface at least one control element with a touch detection function is arranged.
- the at least one operating element is designed as a motion sensor with a camera which detects a movement or a contact point on the operating surface and determines a position and / or a change in position of the contact point on the operating surface.
- An evaluation unit evaluates the position or the position change of the contact point in an operating method for activating an operating function.
